Beat the Common Cold
Researchers in Canada and China are testing a powerful immune booster that provides broad-spectrum protection against the common cold and a number of viruses including SARS, Ebola and H1N1.
They’re currently running clinical trials to prove its effectiveness against coronavirus.
I’m talking about quercetin – a powerful antioxidant that is already available as a supplement.
Previous research shows that quercetin’s antiviral capacity works in three ways. Quercetin can:
Stop the virus from infecting cells
Reduce the reproduction of cells that are already infected
And reduce infected cells resistance to tr...

Your Body ’s First Responders
B vitamins aren’t glamourous…
With the exception of vitamin B12, you may not be familiar with what the other B vitamins do.
That can be a problem.
B vitamins are critical nutrients for your immune system.
And you may think you’re getting enough when you’re not. If you read ingredient labels, you often see B vitamins listed. The packaging may even say, “fortified with B vitamins.”
But these are not really vitamins at all. They are “chemical copies” that have no real nutritional value.
Today, I’ll show you how B vitamins help you beat infections and how to get the best s...

Overlooked Virus Killer
Sales of vitamin C supplements have tripled in the last few weeks…
And the most powerful kind of vitamin C is sold out on Amazon. (More on that in a minute.)
I’m glad to see people turning to vitamin C. But the the chewable form you usually find at the drugstore won’t give you the boost you’re looking for. You see, absorption — or bioavailability — is an issue, and your body can only absorb about 500 mg of this conventional form of vitamin C before you hit saturation. And that’s nowhere near enough.
In a moment I’ll show you a better form of vitamin C… and how you can take ...

Energy Vitamin Gets You Up Off the Sofa
If you’re stuck at home, practicing social distancing and self-isolation, you might feel less motivated than usual.
I get it… It’s easy to feel indifferent during these trying times.
Weeks of staying home can leave you feeling drained and struggling to get up off the couch. You might be tempted to reach for an energy drink to get you going.
If you do, you’re not alone. Bottled energy drinks are big business… The market was valued at $53 billion in 2018 and is predicted to surge to $86 billion in the next few years.1
But these “energy” drinks deliver a lot of false promises AND big h...

Fight Viruses With … Sleep?
With the 24-hour news cycles spinning out of control these days, you may find yourself feeling way more stressed than usual. And that additional anxiety can lead to a lot of sleepless nights…
If there’s one thing these trying times will teach us, it’s that we need to take control of our own health. We can’t rely on the government, or Big Pharma or anyone else to do it for us. After all, self-reliance in hard times is the core of the American spirit.
Which means it’s up to each of us to protect and bolster our own immune system.
And one of the best – and easiest – ways to do this is by g...

Ancient Immune Booster
One thing we can learn from the last few weeks is that we need to be more self-reliant when it comes to our own health care.
We can’t rely on the government to protect us. They’ve proven they’re not capable…
Especially when it comes to defending yourself and your family against fast-moving infections.
A lot of people have asked me recently if I’m worried about getting sick. Here’s what I tell them:
You were born with all the defenses your body will ever need. It’s called your immune system. If you keep it strong, you don’t have to worry about most diseases.
And there is a s...

I Felt Humbled to Help …
I feel so grateful I have the opportunity to be involved in an amazing foundation that’s dedicated to protecting and preserving endangered wildlife around the world.
My wife Barbara and I are honored to help fund the Animal Recovery Center. Director Dr. Paul Reillo has made it his life’s mission to save endangered animals.
This non-profit organization is called the Rare Species Conservatory. It’s a 40-acre preserve right up the road from my clinic. My good friend Dr. Paul Reillo started it in 1992.
Two of my staff had the opportunity to visit not long ago. They were invited to check out the facility&...

Skinny pigs? Low-fat craze gone too far
Let’s face it. You and I both know most Americans are struggling with their weight. I see it in my practice every day.
There’s not one study that will tell you otherwise. What’s more, there’s been an explosion of not only obesity, but of related diseases like diabetes, hypertension and heart disease.
But did you realize that the rates of obesity and disease in America began rising at the exact same time the health authorities told us to eat a low-fat diet?
It started in 1977 when George McGovern led a Senate Committee that released its “Dietary Goals for the United States.” According to this report, fat was the...

Low testosterone linked to this deficiency …
Without the sun, none of us would be here. After all, we evolved to live under the sun.
But many of us are trained to believe the sun is your deadly enemy.
Every day doctors warn you to stay out of the sun. And if you do go out, they want you to slather your skin with toxic sunscreen.
Their 30-year-old campaign has been very successful. So successful, that people today are extremely deficient in vitamin D. In fact, a new clinical review shows that nearly a billion people across the globe are vitamin D deficient.1
And low vitamin D is a surefire path to chronic disease, early death — and low testosterone.
Almost every wee...

Vitamin deficiency we are all born with
I’ve admired Linus Pauling for years.
In 1976, the Nobel Prize-winning chemist gave mega doses of vitamin C to 100 “untreatable” cancer patients.
He then compared these so-called terminal patients to patients with the same kind of cancer who didn’t get vitamin C.
The patients who received the traditional cancer treatment lived for an average of six months.
Pauling’s patients lived — on average — for six years.
You’d think that the medical community would have heralded Pauling’s research as a huge breakthrough in cancer treatment.
But they didn’t. And they still don’t.
Despite groundbreaking research...

6,000-year-old track record for healing leaky gut
When I was traveling in India, I had the privilege of studying Ayurvedic medicine with traditional Master Healers.
Surrounded by lakes, oceans and mountains, Kerala, India, is the birthplace of Ayurveda medicine.
My plane landed in Mumbai. From there, I made the 800-mile trip to Kerala down on the southwestern-most tip of the Indian peninsula.
With origins dating back 6,000 years, Kerala is the birthplace of Ayurvedic medicine.
I spent a lot of time at the AyurMana or “ancient healing house.” This is the oldest existing school of Ayurvedic medicine in the world.
It was there that I observed how quickly Ayurv...

Maybe the healthiest wine in the world
When I was in South Africa last year, I met a revolutionary winemaker…
His wine was completely organic. It had no toxins, and it contained powerful antioxidant properties.
It was infused with a local herb called rooibos, also known as “red bush.” You may have seen rooibos tea on supermarket shelves.
I immediately knew this wine should be made widely available in America — and I’m still hopeful a distributor will bring it here.
I enjoy a nice glass of red wine from time to time, but the trouble with most of the wines sold in America is that they’re loaded with dangerous chemicals.
Winemaking was once a very simp...

Jamaican weed stabilizes blood sugar
It was pouring rain. I could barely see as I drove up the winding mountains. But I would not be deterred from my mission.
I was on my way to finally meet Jamaica’s last living Maroon healer, Ivey Harris. I finally arrived at her secluded mountain home and she met me with open arms… and an umbrella.
After the rain let up, she showed me around her home. Her yard is like an all-natural pharmacy. And she’s a walking herbal encyclopedia.
One of my favorites was a Jamaican vine with weird-looking warty green fruit. Most people in the U.S. would call it a weed.
Today, I grow it in my backyard here in South Florida.

Child ’s science experiment solves chronic disease mystery
“Chew this.” I was instructed.
“But don’t swallow. Just tell me when IT happens.”
IT?
What was IT?
I’d have to find out. My researcher’s son — who enlisted me in his science experiment — wasn’t telling.
So I obliged and started chewing.
It tasted just as I expected at first. Bland. Almost cardboard-like.
And then the strangest thing occurred.
After about a minute, a hint of sweetness tickled my tongue. I kept chewing. A few seconds later, it intensified… like I was sucking on candy. And a few seconds after that it felt like I had an entire spoonful of sugar in my mouth.
What happened?
Like a shredder ...
