Dr. Andrew Saul, frequent guest on The Power of Natural Healing, ardent proponent of natural health, active practitioner of excellent health practices, focuses on dietary fiber in today's episode. Though it may sound boring, Dr. Saul traces the fascinating history of how the importance of fiber was discovered, exploited and used for military purposes before being accepted by the medical world. One British naval physician found, by sharp observation that sailors who ate bran with their food remained far healthier (thus more able to do their duty and fight for king and country) than if they did not. He convinced the Royal Navy to require the consumption of fiber by their crews, mirroring the adoption of citrus to avoid scurvy, a common affliction of long-distance sailors in past centuries. Lack of fiber is common in modern processed food consumers, and it affects health powerfully. Listen in and find out why!

We all know about how poisonous the fluoridation of our water supply is, and how much damage it is doing to our children's bones, teeth and brains. But how about sources that we don't know about? Cathy Justus, of 'Poisoned Horses', and frequent guest of the show, will tell us about the hidden, stealthy yet just as dangerous sources of fluoride poisoning from foods and drinks that we have thus far considered 'safe.' Protect yourself and your family by listening and heeding this information.

Despite the huge success of the flu vaccination programs across the United States, including huge and universal coercion by medical, academic, military and employers, there is an immense epidemic of flu in all 50 states. Emergency rooms are filled to overflowing, temporary shelters have been pressed into service, and there has even been publicity about vaccine shortages. What is going on? If the number of people who have been vaccinated is at an all-time high, why is flu spreading at such a high rate? We have spoken on this program in the past about vaccines not being tested for safety and effectiveness, about vaccines being the only product exempted from product liability in the US, and this is still the case today.

We'll also talk about the cynicism of food manufacturers and the animal food industry, pushing products known to be carcinogenic by the WHO, and hiding that information from us by corrupting the press.

Nicolette Richer of Whistler, British Columbia, is a ball of fire. She has a master's degree in psychology, is a Gerson Therapy home setup trainer, founded a chain of organic, whole-foods restaurants that is growing like wildfire, has been invited to help British Columbia hospitals improve their dietary offerings to healing rather than damaging foods, gives seminars, and has started to franchise the restaurants. She has so much energy, it's going to be hard to corral it all in a tiny one-hour interview, but we'll try. Bubbly, full of plans and ambitions, with a tool that she knows will help anyone who picks it up. Listen in for an exciting interview!

Recently, Paul Connett and his wife, both experts on the deadly substance fluorine, went to Washington to testify in the EPA hearings on water fluoridation. They drove for hours from upstate New York to Washington, and were put on the agenda to testify as to the science and effects of fluoride. When they were scheduled to testify, they were told that they had THREE MINUTES to talk, and no more would be allotted, although there was ample time in the schedule for speakers to allow them to speak longer. Any dissent, any mention of the actual science behind the opposition to water fluoridation was completely silenced and suppressed, showing that the EPA is NOT a science-driven agency, but a political agency driven by imperatives different from protecting the environment and population of the United States. Time for this agency to change administrators and/or be abolished, as it is NOT serving its stated purpose, rather just the opposite.

There are many paths to healing, including chiropractic. But in the end, all paths, no matter where they begin, lead to the central principle that the human body is designed, and functions best, when it is able to do what it is supposed to do, and that is maintain homeostasis, or good health. Every healer who observes his patients, and pays attention to their responses, will eventually come to the conclusion that properly feeding the body, removing the poisons that people have accumulated, and making sure that joints and nerves are properly functioning will result in optimum health over the long run. Chiropractic is one of the paths leading to the holy grail of good health and well-being. Dr. Hakim is an experienced and effective healer, and we'll explore his journey to the healing arts.

This is the time of year when, due to parties, poor nutrition, not enough sleep, stress due to finances, fatigue, alcohol, reduced sunlight, people all around you are, or will be getting colds, the flu and other infectious illnesses. Some of these, if the past is any guide, will progress into pneumonia, with potentially fatal consequences.

At the same time, the pharmaceutical industry and the vaccine manufacturers are working day and night to develop hundreds of more vaccines, and lobbying for all they are worth ($$$) to get every single one designated as mandatory.

Dr. Andrew Saul, vitamin, nutrition and supplement expert, great friend and frequent guest on The Power of Natural Healing, will share techniques for protecting yourself from, even reversing the ill effects of untested and unsafe vaccines, and will show you how to protect yourself from colds and flu, even if they have progressed to pneumonia. You need to listen to this show!

The opioid epidemic in the United States has reached crisis proportions, killing an average of 140 people EVERY DAY, a tally of over 50,000 people annually. As a further tragedy, many, many of these deaths are young people, high schoolers, college students and that vicinity. How did this happen? Who is responsible? Can it be stopped?

We'll explore the culprits (yes, there are people and agencies who have cynically encouraged opioid use, and overuse, for the sheer profit they reap), and can they be held accountable? Is there another way to avoid the chronic pain, the addiction, the deaths?

In the end, this is a cynical ploy to sell more pharmaceuticals, like so many of Big Pharma's schemes, with no consideration of the dire consequences that WE suffer, nor the expense incurred by families and individuals attempting to rescue the life of a loved one from this terrible plague.

We will be talking with successful health coach Ginny Miller about Functional Diagnostic Nutrition. The trend that has been developing in the past several years, thanks to practitioners like Ginny, shows that people are discovering the power of nutrition in their lives, and how much better they would be able to function and feel if they started to nourish their bodies properly. Ginny has helped many people to rediscover energy and functionality by addressing the deficiencies and missteps in their approach to nutrition. She specializes in helping women who feel betrayed by their bodies and abandoned by conventional, allopathic medicine, which typically leaves them sicker and with less energy than they were experiencing before. She illustrates the Power of Natural Healing daily in her successful practice.

Many of our listeners have only recently been introduced to the Gerson Therapy, thanks to the rapid increase in our listening audience. We are grateful that more people are tuning in, but often, their knowledge of the actual therapy that is producing the miraculous results that we speak about, is sketchy. This program will answer many of the most basic questions for newer listeners, and refresh the knowledge for those who know what we are talking about. When that knowledge is available, listeners will be able to make the connection between the Therapy and the healing of advanced chronic illnesses that it enables, and have a basic understanding of the mechanisms involved. Listen in, and learn.
