There are multiple problems with the FDA’s one-size-fits-all protein recommendation. Being active or under high amounts of stress will increase your need for protein. Plus, protein fitness is crucial to thyroid function. If you want your thyroid to fuction optimally, examine your diet.

Understanding the critical importance of Bifidobacterium in an infant touches on a field that is as delicate and vital as the unfolding of a life’s first breath. Yes, laying the foundation for an infant to begin its life with a healthy gut is that important. Indeed, in the tapestry of infancy, Bifidobacterium species emerge as foundational weavers—early colonizers of the infant gut whose role threads through immunity, development, and even long-term health. Yet, sadly, a new study has found a widespread deficit of Bifidobacterium in infants born in the United States, which is driving prevalent gut dysbiosis and an increased risk of allergic disease.

You have probably heard of “leaky gut” and the importance of protecting the intestinal lining. But did you know your brain has its own version of a protective shield? This remarkable structure, the blood brain barrier, acts like an elite security system allowing only essential nutrients and oxygen to pass into the brain while blocking harmful substances. When this barrier is healthy, it helps your brain maintain sharp thinking, stable mood, and healthy aging. When it is compromised, your whole body experience the effects.

As artists, we often demand so much from ourselves—long nights, endless rehearsals, constant creating—without realizing that our bodies need proper fuel to keep up with our vision. Nutrient deficiencies can creep in quietly, leaving us drained, unfocused, and even emotionally unsteady, which directly impacts our production and creative drive. But the good news is, when we take care of our health—whether through better nutrition, rest, or mindful habits—we unlock deeper energy, sharper focus, and stronger resilience. This upcoming show will explore how nourishing yourself properly isn’t just about staying healthy—it’s about protecting your creativity and ensuring your art continues to thrive.

Thomas Sowell, one of the most incisive thinkers of our time, warned repeatedly about the dangers of intellectuals detached from real-world consequences. Though he rarely addressed medicine directly, his insights are strikingly applicable to today's healthcare crisis-a system dominated by academic elites, rigid guidelines, and centralized authority, while practical, patient-centered wisdom is sidelined.

Nowhere is this intellectual overreach more harmful than in modern medicine.

WASHINGTON—JULY 18, 2025—U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Secretary of State Marco Rubio today issued a Joint Statement of formal rejection by the United States of the 2024 International Heath Regulations (IHR) Amendments by the World Health Organization (WHO).

The amended IHR would give the WHO the ability to order global lockdowns, travel restrictions, or any other measures it sees fit to respond to nebulous “potential public health risks.” These regulations are set to become binding if not rejected by July 19, 2025, regardless of the United States’ withdrawal from the WHO.

This week George discusses why the US has rejected the IHR and WHO. He also discusses ideas proposed by the US and Argentina as well as the lawsuit filed against RFKjr regarding his stance on medial products.
