The Truth About the Newborn Vitamin K Shot: What I Really Chose for My Baby, and How I Naturally Healed a Staph Infection Misdiagnosed as Eczema – AMA


Listen Later

In this AMA episode, I answer two hot topics from my community: the vitamin K shot for newborns and my personal journey in healing what I thought was eczema—but turned out to be something else entirely.

I dive deep into the science, the history, and my personal decision regarding the vitamin K shot for my baby, as well as alternative options like oral supplementation. I also share my discovery of a Staph overgrowth as the real cause behind my persistent skin issues and the exact protocol I followed to heal it—naturally.
