What are the harmful effects it can cause in our body?What can you do to treat it? What can be done to CURE it? All these questions and more will be answered in this show.

Probiotics are the HOT item! They are being offered in food, seltzer, shampoos and many other products. Bacteria outnumbered the healthy cells in our body over 10 to one. Probiotics are bacteria that confer a health benefit to the host. They are found an all kinds of food today not just for people, but for animals as well. Healthy bacteria communicate with every organ and tissue in our body. An unhealthy gut is linked to many diseases and harmful conditions in our body from cancer to diabetes to obesity and depression and more.This series of shows will discuss everything you need to know, want to know and have to know about prebiotics, the food for probiotics, probiotics and postbiotics.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a severe, chronic functional digestive system disorder. It is estimated that it affects 25 to 45,000,000 people in the USA and as much as 11% of the world’s population. It is categorized by bloating, cramping, distention, sharp pain, burning, diarrhea, constipation and mucous in the stool. Many studies on the use of probiotics in treating IBS have shown mixed results making their use controversial. Various foods and supplements have been suggested to treat and minimize its symptoms. We will discuss how to eliminate it, what works, what doesn't, and why!

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common, though complex, disabling neurological disease in young adults, starting as early as age 20. Worldwide, there are over 2.8 million people with MS, and in the United States, nearly 1 million. According to National Multiple Sclerosis Society multiple sclerosis is a disease that impacts the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves, which make up the central nervous system and controls our muscle functions. While the exact cause of MS is still not clear we do know that “something” triggers the immune system to attack the central nervous system. Researchers may now have found this “trigger”! Gut dysbiosis is common in MS, but until now no specific causative species was identified as a possible “trigger”. Now several studies have been published strongly suggesting Clostridium perfringens strains (Type B) in the gut are biologically plausible pathogens in MS that trigger inflammatory demyelination of the nerves! The strains of this opportunistic pathogen are known to secrete over 20 identified toxins. We will discuss this amazing breakthrough and offer a safe and REAL answer to this horrible disease.

Trigeminal neuralgia, also known as tic douloureux, is a condition that causes intense pain similar to an electric shock on one side of the face. It affects the trigeminal nerve (the 5th cranial nerve), which carries signals from the face to the brain. Trigeminal neuralgia can be long-lasting, a chronic pain condition. It's more common in women and people older than 50 but anyone can get it at any age. Bell's palsy is a condition that causes sudden weakness, temporary facial paralysis, in the muscles on one side of the face. This happens when there’s inflammation and swelling of your seventh cranial nerve . The weakness makes half of the face appear to droop. We will discuss the causes and safe, natural ways to eliminate these conditions.

Shingles is a viral infection that causes a painful rash. Shingles can occur anywhere on your body. Shingles is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox. Postherpetic neuralgia happens if nerve fibers get damaged during an outbreak of shingles. Most cases of shingles cause severe pain and itching, and can leave scars. Shingles can lead to serious complications involving the eye, including blindness. Very rarely, shingles can also lead to pneumonia, hearing problems, brain inflammation and death. How to prevent, minimize and treat this harmful infection with be the focus of this show.

Vitamin K (VK) exists in nature in the form of VK1 and VK2. Initially its importance was its ability to promote blood coagulation and was known as the “coagulation vitamin”. Now the latest research has shown its potential for the prevention and treatment of various diseases. Many recent studies have shown the beneficial effects of VK on immunity, antioxidant capacity, intestinal microbiota regulation, skin development, bone protection and its potential preventive and therapeutic effects on infections, inflammation as well as in type 2 diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, cancer, aging, atherosclerosis, autoimmune disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, type 1 diabetes mellitus, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. This show will discuss all of this and more.

The skin is the largest organ of the human body and is covered in a diverse array of microbiome which includes bacteria, viruses and fungi, which help protect us against foreign pathogens. Aging skin, wrinkles, pigmentation, and dryness are problems that also plague us all, and researchers are working to solve them. Recent studies have shown that your gut microbiome can communicate and directly influence skin health, demonstrating the existence of a “gut-skin axis”. This plays a crucial role in resisting foreign pathogens, nurturing the immune system, metabolizing natural products and retarding skin aging! The onset of various skin diseases and “premature aging of the skin” has been linked to disruptions in the skin microbiome. What can you do to help prevent and treat premature aging and skin diseases and conditions will be discussed in todays show.

The past two shows in this series have shown the serious downside to GMO food. Now the final episode, other side of the story! Global population is increasing at an intense rate, posing a serious threat on the supplies of food. GMO stands for Genetically Modified Organism, organisms that are genetically modified or genetically engineered. Scientists transfer genes from one species and force them into the DNA of other species or gene-editing equipment that rearranges genes in the sequence, take genes out, etc. Simply it’s all artificial changes in the DNA done in a laboratory. Is it safe? Some say It is not possible to prove a food is safe, only to say that no hazard has been shown to exist. Is this true? You decide!
