Fluoroquinolones such as Cipro, Levaquin and Avelox are antibiotics commonly used to treat or prevent serious bacterial infections such as sinusitis, bronchitis and urinary tract infections. According to the Centers for Disease Control statistics, American doctors wrote nearly 30 million fluoroquinolone antibiotic prescriptions in 2016.

A 2016 FDA safety review stated that fluoroquinolones are associated with disabling and potentially permanent serious side effects that can occur together. These side effects can involve the tendons, muscles, joints, nerves, and central nervous system. Fluoroquinolone toxicity can cause severe mitochondrial damage in the body. This condition is commonly misdiagnosed as lymes, MS, arthritis, fibromyalgia among others.

Kiley Woodland is a singer songwriter and recording artist and was opening for KISS with her band shortly before she was given cipro, one of the most commonly prescribed antibiotics, which ended up causing such severe debilitating side effects it put her in a wheelchair.

Kiley has since started sharing her journey to educate others on the dark side of fluoroquinolone antibiotics that often no one is told about. In this episode she talks about how fluoroquinolones harm the cells, the "fluoroquinolone bomb going off", where genetics and nutrient deficiencies play in to a recovery plan, and the two most important minerals that are chelated out with fluoroquinolone toxicity.

This is the sequel to the episode titled "Why I'm Moving Back to California". I talk about why we moved back and all of the things I missed with living in the forest versus the city. For those that are interested in going off grid, I give some advice from lessons that I've learned the hard way.

I answer listener questions including: How to fly on planes and mitigate exposure to things that deteriorate our health, brown versus white rice, does drinking reverse osmosis water make you mineral deficient, top five things i'd recommend for overall better health, thoughts on EMF protection strategies, thoughts on vitamin D, and my latest areas of research.

In this Best Of show from the archives, Charles Barber joins us for the first time to share his wisdom about natural farming methods from the beginner level to advanced. We talk about whether supplements are necessary, recommended daily allowances, raw dairy, and gardening.

I feel privileged to have maintained a greenhouse for a few months in a very hot climate and soon will have a chance to do it again in a cold climate. The learning experience is fun and rewarding. I consider Charles a mentor of mine in the space of farming and look forward to utilizing his recommendations to grow premium next level produce.

Fatigue, shortness of breath, coughing, brain fog, headaches, insomnia, lightheadedness, loss of taste and smell, depression, anxiety, digestive distress, joint pain, rashes, and changes in menstrual cycles are a few of the symptoms of long covid.

Shawn Bean calls it "the pandora's box" because it brings to the surface underlying chronic issues that have been dormant for years. In this episode he explains how nutrient deficiencies can often be a root cause of disease, the mechanism of how UV light can improve gut health, the importance of B vitamins, vitamin C, and vitamin E, mycotoxosis, H Pylori, the relationship between covid and endotoxin, and more.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, also known as NAD+, is found in every cell in the body and is a coenzyme thats required for generating energy. Intravenous NAD helped Dr Anthony Gustin recover from mold illness but they were uncomfortable, so he created electrically powered NAD patches under his brand ION Layer. You get a slow release of NAD into the bloodstream all day long without the nausea and time requirement of an IV.

In this episode we also talk about ketosis and polyunsaturated fatty acids. I ask his thoughts about living in northern latitudes (as he just moved to Oregon), eating seasonally and locally, cold exposure, sugar, homesteading, and more.

Phaeodactylum tricornutum is a species of microalgae that was discovered in 1897. Recent preclinical trials have shown that it supports cognitive performance, slows memory loss and reduces oxidative stress in the brain.

This episode is a first in that it coincides with the release of a new Mitolife product called Encephalon, a combination of this algae extract with Gingko biloba and phosphatidylserine (PS). Gingko and PS have been proven in clinical studies to potentiate each others effects. I figured why not amp it up with this really unique algae rich in fucoxanthin?

Vincent Usache, CEO of MicroPhyt, joins us from France to talk about this algae and its "main active ingredient" called fucoxanthin. We focus the discussion on how it can help prevent lipid peroxidation, calcification, and fibrosis and provide overall brain support in times of increased stress.

The idea that nobody is iron deficient and everyone is iron dysregulated has gone mainstream the past couple of years. The theory is that even though your ferritin level is single digits you have plenty of iron, its just stored deep in your tissues where blood tests don't measure. What if there is another side to the story?

Caitlyn Hartigan, founder of the Iron Protocol, joins us again to talk about iron deficiency and all of the myths surrounding it. She often says that iron overload experts do not understand iron deficiency. We talk about the iron recycling system, iron's cofactors, iron infusions, vitamin D, how ferritin can be an antioxidant, and the relationship between iron and pathogens.

Dirty electricity is one of the four different kinds of artificial electromagnetic fields that we're exposed to on a daily basis. It is created in buildings from improper wiring and from heavy device usage. It is being created even when the switch to a device is off.

Kim Lear, director of education at Greenwave Filters, joins us to break down the deep science behind dirty electricity, its effects on the body, and how we can mitigate it.
