Detoxification can help you become healthy or stay healthy. In my opinion, detox is mandatory to live a long and healthy life in today’s toxic environment. One area of the body that needs extra detoxification support is the liver.

The liver can accumulate so many toxins over the course of a lifetime. These days, it just can’t clean itself enough. We’re all exposed to so many pharmaceuticals, heavy metals, pesticides and other environmental toxins. All of these toxins must be filtered out through your liver. Coffee enemas are a great way to help clean your liver, and lighten the burden you are putting on it. Coffee enemas can also help with pain management, depression, candida, and parasites. I hope you enjoy this informative “me-speaks” episode!

Have you ever considered the importance of working out your mind, just like you do your body? Do you realize that the thoughts you continually think will become your core belief system, and ultimately control your mind and health? Today we are talking with a mind expert, Lee Lovett, about mind exercises to help you take control of your future.

Lee began his career as an attorney, and has authored several books on communications law. He also co-founded approximately 100 businesses (mostly related to telecommunications), nearly all of which were sold to public companies and are still operating today. Long retired, Lee is a devoted family man with a long marriage, four sons, and 13 grandchildren. In 2015-16, he released four books on Amazon: Happiness in Seven Steps; The Watergate Rhymes; Stuttering & Anxiety Self-Cures; and WORDs You Need to Know. He was also our guest on Vidal Speaks Episode 69: “How a Cure for Stuttering Can Help All of Us.”

Lee’s primary charity is helping fellow stutterers cure themselves, which he does by giving away his book and Skyping with stutterers, no charge. More info about Lee can be found at LeeGLovett.com and "No More Stuttering," by Lee Lovett.

In Today’s Episode

Chronic pain is a horrible thing. After suffering from debilitating migraines for more than forty years, I can sympathize with people that say they have considered suicide because of their chronic pain. Chronic pain is the reason why many people become dependent on drugs, and why opioid addiction is such a problem in our country, even for kids and teenagers. If you suffer from any kind of pain, I can’t wait for you to meet today’s guest, Dr. David Hanscom.

Dr. Hanscom is a board certified orthopedic surgeon, specializing in complex spine problems in all areas of the spine. He has expertise in adult and pediatric spinal deformities, such as scoliosis and kyphosis. A significant part of his practice is devoted to performing surgery on patients who have had multiple prior spine surgeries. He works for Swedish Neuroscience Specialists in Seattle, Washington, and he is the founder of the Puget Sound Spine Society, a non-profit educational group which provides a regional forum for physicians to share ideas regarding optimum spine care.

He is the author of a book titled, Back in Control: A Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain, which I highly recommend that you read, because he explains in full detail why his method works, and what you need to do to get out of chronic pain or chronic anxiety.  This book will be, and has been, a miracle for many.

[1:56] Welcome to our old friends and new friends alike! The Vidal Speaks Podcast is where you can learn about all kinds of ways to get well, why a plant-powered diet is the only diet that will reverse disease in the long run, the true causes of chronic disease, and the myths surrounding treatments. Most importantly, you will learn to take charge, and heal yourself and those you love. I hope that this show will grow into a movement of people who take charge of their health! Please tune in every Wednesday and share this podcast with your friends.

[12:10] Dr. Hanscom performed state-of-the-art back surgeries for years, but was confused that they weren’t working very well.

[14:48] While Dr. Hanscom was looking for something better to help his patients, he developed chronic pain himself.

[17:14] When you feel anxiety you are really feeling a chemical surge.

[20:56] By sharing his personal experience with his patients, Dr. Hanscom has helped hundreds become pain and anxiety free.

[21:42] The human body is designed for survival.

[24:16] People often don’t see that their anger is really anxiety.

[24:42] Things started to change when Dr. Hanscom started writing things down, but it took him a little longer to really understand what was going on.

[26:41] How does the nervous system work?

[29:21] The role of anxiety is to protect us.

[30:42] Anger feels powerful, anxiety feels vulnerable.

[33:16] Forgiveness can give you your life back.

[34:48] How can you know if you have truly forgiven?

[39:18] Healing happens in phases.

[42:14] Over 300 research papers support Dr. Hanscom’s approach to reprogramming the brain.

[46:43] Thoughts are real, but they may not represent reality.

[49:09] Writing is “mechanical meditation.”

[50:06] Dr. Hanscom even practices mindfulness while performing surgery.

[51:10] The past is not fixable, and acceptance of that fact is key to healing.

[56:22] The goal should be to connect to the very second that you’re in.

[57:20] Dr. Hanscom’s method is a four-step process.

[59:13] Talking about your pain is usually not constructive.

[1:00:36] Dr. Hanscom is putting on a conference this July with Dr. Bernie Siegel.

[3:33] In her 20-year practice, Vidal found that almost every patient who came to her, had a gut issue.

[4:40] The overprescription of antibiotics has created a large population of sick people.

[8:05] Dr. Chutkan transitioned into integrative medicine, after she saw lots of patients who wanted to know what lifestyle changes they should make to get better.

[11:31] Many patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease use the Specific Carbohydrate Diet.

[12:29] One patient’s miraculous healing using diet inspired Dr. Chutkan to start finding ways to get her patients off of drugs.

[14:09] Doctors want their patients to get better, but their educations have been hijacked by the pharmaceutical industry.

[22:41] What is the “Velio Diet” for healing the gut?

[25:47] Microbiota Accessible Carbohydrates are crucial for gut healing, and can be found in foods like leafy greens, oats and lentils.

[28:47] Choose vegetables.

[30:25] People are waking up to the importance of gut health.

[31:38] We are more microbial than we are human.

[33:04] Cleansers are contributing to disruption of the microbiome.

[34:56] What is Triclosan, and why has the FDA said it must be taken out of personal care products?

[35:30] Your hand sanitizer isn’t doing what you intend it to do.

[36:14] Eat clean and live dirty.

[38:51] What is the Hygiene Hypothesis?

[41:29] Healthy bacteria can crowd out a virus.

[42:52] Instead of focusing on Germ Theory, focus on your body’s microbial terrain.

[44:07] There is no magic pill for good health.

[46:08] To a very large degree, we are in control of our health.

[49:27] Your doctor isn’t dangerous, but their training might be.

[51:10] More physicians are becoming interested in food as medicine, often because of personal health crises. Dr. Chutkan was particularly driven by a desire to help her own daughter.

[58:13] Pediatricians are much more likely to prescribe antibiotics when they feel like parents expect it.

[59:13] Remember that you have the right to informed consent and refusal, and that no drugs come without side effects.

[1:04:16] Dr. Chutkan’s book, The Microbiome Solution, includes a recommended birth plan to help start your child’s gut off right. There is even a solution for those that have to give birth via c-section.

[1:05:53] Be open to educating your doctor.

[1:07:05] During a colonoscopy, Dr. Chutkan and other gastroenterologists can tell a meat eater from a plant eater.

[1:10:04] If you are not already a vegan, eat more plants!

[1:12:32] The microbiome can change (for better or worse) very quickly.

[1:13:52] Eating a good diet is far more important than taking a probiotic.

Today we are talking with Lee Lovett about ways people can cure their own anxiety. Lee began his career as an attorney and has authored several books on communications law. He also co-founded approximately 100 businesses (mostly related to telecommunications), nearly all of which were sold to public companies and are still operating today. Long retired, Lee is a devoted family man with a long marriage, four sons and 13 grandchildren. Once a dedicated runner, biker, weight lifter, and snow skier, his primary avocation has always been reading, and he has reviewed hundreds of books online as BookAWeekMan. In 2015-16, he released four books on Amazon: Happiness in Seven Steps; The Watergate Rhymes; Stuttering & Anxiety Self-Cures; and WORDs You Need to Know. He has two more books in the works.  His primary charity is helping fellow stutterers cure themselves, which he does by giving away his book and Skyping with stutterers, no charge. More info about Lee can be found at LeeGLovett.com and "No More Stuttering," by Lee Lovett.

Outline of This Great Episode 

[5:19] Lee became a situational stutterer after his classmates made fun of him when he was 13.

[7:52] Stutterers are perfectionists.

[11:16] Lee estimates that one in ten people on the planet sufferer from speech anxiety.

[14:50] We all have some kind of inferiority complex.

[15:59] Through his struggle with stuttering, Lee learned a lot about mind control.

[17:37] Most researchers can’t figure out why people stutter.

[20:43] Stutterers may be triggered to stutter by many different types of situations, and they may experience “stutter free zones.”

[24:33] Lee still considers himself a stutterer, but he knows how to prevent his stutter from emerging.

[25:18] Mainstream therapists have not embraced Lee’s methods, and that’s why stuttering is considered incurable.

[29:39] What are the steps to curing a stutter?

[35:28] What are the twelve “crutches” that Lee teaches?

[1:01:15] Don’t ever label yourself based on a behavior that you wish to change.

[1:04:14] What you focus your time and thoughts on determines your behavior.

[1:09:14] How can someone handle speaking anxiety?

[1:12:36] Take control of your mind and dictate your thoughts.

[1:18:43] You too can heal yourself of “incurable” diseases. Be sure to check out VidalSpeaks.com, where you can find my story, my favorite products and much more!

Today we are talking with an important figure in the world of detox, Dr. Daniel Pompa. I have wanted to have Dr. Pompa on the show since Episode 1, and he’s finally here! 

Dr. Pompa completed his undergraduate education at the University of Pittsburgh in 1988 and earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Life University's College of Chiropractic in Marietta, Georgia in 1995. Even though Dr. Pompa no longer practices chiropractic, his understanding of cellular healing has lead to many speaking engagements at large chiropractic seminars, speaking to hundreds of professionals who learn of his detoxification program for neurotoxic conditions and other unexplainable illnesses. Dr. Pompa has established his coaching and teaching on a firm and proven conviction that the crisis of modern-day allopathic medicine is the sad result of physicians chasing symptoms with medication rather than addressing the root cause of disease. This even occurs within functional medicine. His approach to getting to the "upstream cause" is what separates him from others.

In this conversation with Dr. Pompa, I ask him all about his protocol so that you guys can see how it’s done. What I love so much about his protocol is that it has three phases. First, you prepare the body and repair the cell, then you do the body detox, and finally you do the brain detox. Dr. Pompa particularly stresses the necessity of using a true binder to rid your body of heavy metals, and explains to us what that is.

Through our conversation today I hope that you can learn more about how to properly detoxify your own body as part of your own healing journey.

Outline of This Great Episode 

[2:11] Patients must take responsibility for their own health, rather than relying on doctors and practitioners to heal them.

[3:07] So many people are struggling with undiagnosable symptoms, and the medical world has very little success in helping these patients.

[4:16] Toxins contribute to illness.

[5:19] Dr. Dan Pompa became an authority on detox after he healed his own mystery illness through a mercury detox.

[6:20] Dr. Pompa has developed a method to detox the brain, and detox on a cellular level.

[6:45] What is CytoDetox?

[9:09] Regardless of our age, we all need to detox.

[11:25] CytoDetox utilizes a true binder. This is especially important, as it has become difficult to get other true binders without a prescription.

[14:47] What are Dr. Pompa’s Five Rs?

[16:45] Vidal introduces Dr. Pompa.

[20:41] Through mercury toxicity, Dr. Pompa moved from pain to purpose.

[25:10] Dr. Andy Cutler’s chelation methods were a big part of Dr. Pompa’s journey back to health.

[26:37] You must use chelation within a specific system or else it can lead to dangerous redistribution of toxins.

[28:45] What is the difference between upstream and downstream detox?

[30:27] What does phase one of Dr. Pompa’s program look like, in application?

[33:49] Many practitioners are approaching methylation problems in a totally wrong way.

[37:32] Phase two of Dr. Pompa’s protocol is all about setting up a correct concentration gradient within the body.

[40:30] In phase three, the “brain phase,” patients use both CytoDetox and ALA.

[44:18] Dr. Pompa has created formulas to move toxins clear out of the body after they hit the liver.

[46:07] How do you know when you are ready to move from one detox phase to another?

[46:50] Dr. Pompa is holding a training seminar in Atlanta in May.

[47:20] During phase three, Dr. Pompa will sometimes add in a supplement for the thyroid and hypothalamus.

[49:43] Dr. Pompa’s protocol involves cycling, similar to the Cutler protocol.

[50:40] Heavy metals from fillings accumulate in the brain.

[51:16] We begin accumulating toxins in the womb.

[55:00] We need to have an honest conversation about vaccines, but the mainstream media won’t go there.

[59:09] Dr. Pompa’s protocol is customized for each patient.

[1:03:14] CytoDetox is a wonderful replacement for DMSA and DMPS.

[1:07:07] Sadly, people are often very disconnected to their health until they become ill.

[1:12:14] Glyphosate is even more dangerous than most people realize.

[1:16:31] Heavy metals displace minerals.

[1:18:00] There is no perfect test to detect heavy metal toxicity, but we all need to detox.

[1:24:31] Dr. Pompa considers some common detox methods to be dangerous.

My guest, Jessica Ortner, will explain how Tapping works, and how it can make a difference in any area where you are struggling, from chronic pain to changing your thinking about money!

What is Tapping? How can it help with my physical and emotional issues? Tapping is a combination of ancient Chinese acupressure and modern psychology.

She talks about the science behind Tapping and how it works, and explains how Tapping affects your brain and its response to stressors.

Tapping uses nine acupressure points on your upper body, combined with speaking out loud about whatever stressor you are addressing. In this episode, Jessica Ortner explains where these points are and how to tap them. In the sample Tapping session, she guides us through the kind of things we need to say as we tap. Tapping is an amazing technique to help release pent-up emotions and negative thoughts that affect our bodies and keep us from being healthy.

While Tapping, we make statements about whatever pain or issue is troubling us. Some may wonder what the difference is between tapping and just venting our problems. In this episode, Jessica Ortner talks about how Tapping actually creates a calming signal to your brain and lets out your frustration instead of magnifying it the way that just venting does. Listen to this podcast to learn about how to work with your brain to get yourself calm and allow your body to do its healing work that your high stress has been preventing up until now.

Neal Barnard, M.D., F.A.C.C., is an adjunct associate professor of medicine at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences in Washington, D.C., president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and founder of Barnard Medical Center.

Dr. Barnard is a fellow of the American College of Cardiology, the 2016 recipient of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine’s Trailblazer Award, and has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes, funded by the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Barnard has authored more than 70 scientific publications as well as 18 books, including the New York Times best-sellers Power Foods for the Brain, 21-Day Weight Loss Kickstart, and the USA Today best-seller Dr. Barnard’s Program for Reversing Diabetes.

As president of the Physicians Committee, Dr. Barnard leads programs advocating for preventive medicine, good nutrition, and higher ethical standards in research. He hosts four PBS television programs on nutrition and health and is frequently called on by news programs to discuss issues related to nutrition and research.

Originally from Fargo, N.D., Dr. Barnard received his medical degree from the George Washington University School of Medicine and completed his residency at the same institution. He practiced at St. Vincent’s Hospital in New York before returning to Washington to found the Physicians Committee.

In 2015, Dr. Barnard founded the nonprofit Barnard Medical Center, which opened in January 2016, in Washington, D.C. Barnard Medical’s board-certified physicians, nurse practitioners, and registered dietitians provide complete primary care. Barnard Medical also helps patients tackle the causes of illness, with extra attention on improving health through prevention and nutrition. Barnard Medical takes advantage of years of research conducted by the Physicians Committee research team and other researchers, showing how a new approach to medicine and nutrition could help prevent and reverse serious health problems, such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, migraines, and arthritis. Barnard Medical’s focus on nutrition includes comprehensive nutrition counseling with registered dietitians and group cooking classes.

As a child in Fargo, North Dakota, Barnard studied piano, cello, and guitar, and took his love of music with him to Washington, DC, where he attended medical school while establishing himself in the DC music scene. Barnard started composing and recording songs in the 80s, and he played music professionally throughout his medical school and residency. With a penchant for the avant-garde, Neal constantly writes songs that defy any genre categorization. He chooses unconventional time meters as well, in order to “tilt the song ever so slightly and give you that little jolt between the ears,” as he puts it.

More about Neal Barnard

CarbonWorks music will surprise those who know Barnard as the physician who has authored more than 70 scientific publications and 18 books, whose NIH-funded research revolutionized the nutritional treatment of diabetes, and who is a recognized authority on science and health. As founder of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and a faculty member at the George Washington University School of Medicine, the trailblazing physician has dramatically influenced U.S. nutrition policies, arm-wrestled with the food industry, and worked to replace the use of animals in education and research with kinder methods.

In keeping with the tradition of luminaries like Albert Einstein, who played violin with symphony orchestras and Harvard researcher Rudy Tanzi, who played keyboards with Aerosmith, Barnard’s scientific innovations are complemented by his explorations in music. As a way of bridging together these two worlds, Barnard gives talks about his findings on how music profoundly affects the brain and “why it beats heroin and Velveeta!”
