Latest medical research on Parkinsons disease, Motor Neuron disease, the microbiome and breast cancer. Plus I discuss the volatility of bitcoin.

I discuss this weeks scientific research on ovarian cancer, the immune system and persistent viral infections. I also compare sunlight, bitcoin and gold in terms of three characteristics of a monetary system.

In this brand new series, I explain the new direction of the Treat the Cause Podcast. I also discuss the unrealised importance of the circadian rhythm from an evolutionary perspective and explain the entourage effect. Then its onto bitcoin and the difference between decentralisation and a distributed network.

During a windy stroll on the Byron Bay beach, foraging for seaweed I discuss the multiple immune benefits of beach life. Sorry about the wind and the space alien noises...one of the hazards of recording my life as I actually live it.

Apologies for the couple of weeks of no podcast, I have been taking some time to consider the direction I want to go with my message and how to best deliver it. During that short hiatus I was able to really come to understand  my true purpose and passion- the need to use both science and tradition to achieve self-sovereignty through re-connecting with natures rhythms. Today I chat with Ayurvedic Life Coach, soon to be Ayurvedic Doctor, Heather Johnson from Utah about how yoga and Ayurveda have changed both their lives. Lessons from the oldest health system, even more relevant and validated today. As Heather says, "If your highest truth doesn't line up with the thing, then don't do the thing."

Greg talks with World Record holder, Guinness Book record holder in oyster shucking, author  and Toronto Chef, Paddy McMurray about all things oysters. From his hilarious stories hosting Anthony Bourdain, his oyster knives, vegetables that come inside oysters, how Australian oysters are missing a vital ingredient, why Parisians like their oysters stuck to their shells, why oysters might be the most valuable and sustainable food source,  to the perils of last minute Valentines Day bookings at oyster restaurants....it's all here.

The magic citrus juice for my garden, the oil that saves the heart and the weight, the root that decreases inflammation in blood vessels, the mineral that kills viruses, the rise and rise of psychedelics and bitcoin increasing acceptance...just another day in the Northern Rivers.

From the Northern Rivers Area of New South Wales, Dr Greg Emerson discusses the latest medical research. He covers the origin of cancer, selenium fighting both cancers and viruses, plastics and autism, asks are parasites actually good for us  and considers several new benefits of vitamin D.

Dr Greg Emerson discusses Michael Jordan's commitment to daily excellence, why vitamin D helps testosterone levels but doesn't, sunlight and ADHD, new evidence showing that cancer spreads much earlier than we thought, Epstein Barr Virus causing heart disease and the latest cryptocurrency news.

What do Heliophiles (sun lovers) and Michael Jordan have in common? They are both discussed on this podcast. I was about to say "they are both on this podcast" but with 5 listeners per episode I probably don't have enough power to get MJ on yet. But listen to this podcast and you'll learn about what MJ can teach is about never giving up and the latest medical news on vitamin D, melatonin and testosterone. Plus the usual updates in the cryptocurrency markets.
