Dr. Kelly Brogan, M.D., Green Med Info Waking Times Every functional medicine psychiatrist has case stories of the ‘probiotic cure’ – of a patient with debilitating symptoms, often obsessive compulsive range, whose symptoms remitted completely with dietary change and probiotic supplementation.

Brandon Turbeville, Guest Waking Times With the latest round of hysteria regarding the prevalence of the annual flu season and the “need” for the flu vaccine in full swing, one unaccustomed to reading the details of government statistics and the arguments for or against vaccination might justifiably be terrorized into running to their local vaccine …
Kelly Brogan, MD, Mercola Waking Times When I see new patients, I do not prescribe medication for them. Patients who come to me know that I plan to help them understand “why” they are experiencing “what” they are going through. Once I have tapered patients off of medication, we use alternatives if symptoms crop up …

Christina Sarich, Natural Society Waking Times Since the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) aren’t legally required to tell the truth about anything, why should they?

Are “alternative medicines” healthicines or medicines? Are vitamins healthicines, or medicines? Are herbal medicines healthicines or medicines. Let’s begin with some simple examples, where the lines are very clear. An apple a …
Dave Mihalovic, Prevent Disease Waking Times “Dress warm or you’ll catch a cold” said every parent that ever existed.

Paul Fassa, Natural Society Waking Times Below is an ignored method of treating and preventing most diseases. It is so potent that it threatens the medical establishment’s tyrannical monopoly. All bacterial pathogens, viruses, and parasites are anaerobic and thrive in the absence of oxygen. In fact, they are poisoned by oxygen. Even cancer cells perish with abundant …
Paul Fassa, Natural Society Waking Times Making vaccines safe by removing their toxins (greening), or telling people they have a right to look at vaccine ingredients before deciding whether to vaccinate or not may be the politically correct form of vaccination resistance.
