Today on YTC, Dr. Ben interviews his sister, Emily Edwards and her business partner, Brooke Wagner who are both doctors of physical therapy. Dr. Ben shares how weight loss is more diet-related than trying to burn more calories through exercise than you put in. Exercise is more for fitness and longevity. Brooke and Emily both share their journey in what led them to a more functional approach to physical therapy. Brooke explains a recent research study that shows that a short session of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is as effective as 150 minutes of pounding the pavement through running. HIIT has many benefits from increasing autophagy and protecting against injury, amongst many others. The ladies give examples of how to create a HIIT workout in several different environments. Brooke describes the process and benefits of ‘Super Slow’ weight training...even at home! Emily shares some statistics that support resistance training and how these statistics also relate to kids. Dr. Ben speaks to the importance of not being sedentary and being mindful about moving often throughout the day. Brooke and Emily summarize how each age group - kids, middle age, and elderly - can make purposeful movement each day to keep their body strong.

Interview with Jim Hrncir, pharmacist and expert on bioidentical hormones.

On this episode of You’re the Cure Dr. Edwards interviews Brian Hooker, Ph.D. regarding vaccines and neurodevelopment issues. Dr. Hooker is a research scientist and father with an autistic son and has done an extensive reanalysis of the research regarding the safety of vaccines and identifying which groups of children are at most risk for vaccine injury-- as well as receiving, first-hand, information from Dr. William Thompson of the CDC that brings into question some of that research.

Dr. Ben Edwards highlights the amazing design of the human body with a patient testimony.

On today’s show, we review the testimonials from diabetic patients, discussing how they could lose 150lbs, get off their meds and reverse their diabetes. Other Topics covered: how eating fat doesn’t make you fat, how to eat fat to lose fat, when Eisenhower had his heart attack, most of the country didn’t know what that meant and now it’s the leading cause of death in America, the 4 big problems with today’s wheat: iron, sugar, gluten and glyphosate, and finally how to use a magnet to get iron filings out of your cereal and baby food (seriously).

First Mondays with Morley - Today we talk about osteoporosis and how taking calcium isn’t the answer. We explain how calcium is leached out of the bone but it is still present in the body and just needs to be escorted back into the bone. Calcium supplementation can lead to further inflammation in the body which is the root cause of osteoporosis. Magnesium is the anti-inflammatory mineral, so it helps to not only combat inflammation but also helps the body put minerals back into the bone and build new, healthy bone. We discussed how the enzymes are the workhorses in the human body and build key components of our body, including bone. However, enzymes run off minerals like magnesium and copper and need certain vitamins like retinol to fully function. Dr. Ben and Morley explain why donating blood is important, what it does in the body, and how often to do it. Dr. Ben shares some modern man-made food ingredient lists and how they are rampant with corn syrup and enriched wheat flours that spike blood sugars and increase iron toxicity in our body. Finally, Morley speaks to how taking zinc causes copper to be bound up and isn’t excreted from the body. It isn’t your best form of defense for Alzheimer’s and can actually perpetuate the problem.

On today’s show Dr. Edwards interviews Dr. Malter about Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis.

On today’s show, Deb and Mitch Mattson were in the studio to share their testimonies.

After adopting a higher fat, moderate protein low carb diet she lost weight effortlessly and her blood sugars normalized. Mitch tells how bariatric surgery didn’t really help him but after watching his wife shrink in size he followed in her footsteps. Mitch lost 180 lbs and is off his medications too.

On today’s show, Dr. Ben interviews Rich Smith with Dirt Rich Farms. Rich explains how his family’s background in farming caused him not to want any part of farming... until he realized that there is another way to approach agriculture. Rich explains the history of wildlife in our area and how that affected/benefited agriculture. He goes through the symbiotic relationship between the land and animals and how important that is. Rich finishes the show by sharing some lies we’ve been led to believe.

Today Dr. Ben interviews Christine Stuart who is a certified nurse mid-wife here in Lubbock. You'll learn about how the U.S. ranks 58th in the world in infant mortality and how most other industrialized countries utilize midwives because of their superior outcomes. Dr. Ben reminds his listeners how cesarean section delivery rates are quite high in the U.S. and that c-section babies are at increased risk of obesity and autoimmune disease. Also, these c-section babies miss out on the good probiotic flora from the mom's vaginal birth canal and are instead inoculated by the skin flora of hospital workers instead of the colon flora of their mom! There are over 100 birthing centers in Dallas and some with waiting lists! It is time for West Texas to learn about the benefits and superior care that midwives can bring to women's health.

Today on YTC Dr. Edwards interviews local 4th generation farmer Jeremy Brown to discuss how he has implemented some of last week’s guest, Gabe Brown’s, techniques to help turn dirt to soil.

On Today's show we talk to Nelson Coulter again, the former superintendent of Guthrie Common School District. Nelson and his wife are now learning and implementing an agriculture technique called Permaculture. Nelson and Dr. Ben discuss the connection between food and health and also discuss how depleted our current food supply is in vitamins and minerals.

On today’s show, Dr. Edwards interviews Gabe Brown, author of “Dirt to Soil”. Since we rely on the body to heal itself we desperately need access to food that is full of the raw materials our bodies require to function. Nutrient dense food can only come from healthy soil, not just dirt. In this interview, Gabe shares the story of his journey from conventional agriculture that produces cheap, nutrient depleted food and depletes the soil of organic matter, microbial life, and topsoil --to regenerative agriculture that restores organic matter, microbial life and topsoil while producing nutrient dense food. Some of the more notable parts of the interview : -discussing how annual rainfall totals are not near as important as water infiltration rates, or how quickly water will soak into the soil (Gabe’s land went from 1/2 inch per hour to 2 inches in 25 seconds) -explaining how plant roots feed the soil microbes and soil microbes nourish the plant -how there is 32,000 tons of nitrogen free for the taking above each acre of land -how he is able to stock 800,000 lbs of animal weight per acre compared to conventional thinking that is far below that level -how his ranch is able to be profitable with 17 different diverse enterprises without any government assistance

On today's show Dr. Ben discusses New Year's resolutions to lose weight and get fit. He addresses the fallacy of “calories in calories out”, burning more out then you put in, eatinga low-calorie diet, etc. as weight control mechanisms. He talks about weight gain most often being a hormone issue and therefore how to optimize what you need to induce healthy hormones and suppress pro-inflammatory,fat storage hormones. He also touches on detoxification, and true cellular detox versus juice fasts, colon cleanses, liver flushesetc.

This week Dr. Ben talks about a number of topics, focusing on the upcoming year and what we hope to accomplish in the Veritas Healthy Community. A few of the topics he covers are allergies, antibiotics, essential oil remedies and understanding truth when it comes to wellness.

Today we talked about the Veritas approach to “disease” both historically and the deeper truths that have matured our thought process. We talked about how the body will function normally when it has all it needs and give the example of vitamin B6. When the body is depleted of B6 by Carbidopa (the primary drug of choice for Parkinson’s) then multiple different chemical pathways in the body don’t work right and has led to a 37`% increase in death in Parkinson's Patients since carbidopa was introduced on the market. We also discuss how Veritas used to focus solely on inflammation by chasing bugs and toxins. Germs and toxins trigger the immune system to turn on and release various chemicals that cause inflammation. Bugs like candida, Lyme, and dental bugs or toxins like heavy metals, household chemicals, or toxins from mold, etc. However, now we understand that the body can better deal with these bugs and toxins if it is equipped better to handle them. Being equipped means balancing out the minerals in the body properly. Magnesium and copper deficiency and excess iron are the 3 main minerals that will cause a disruption of normal bodily functions.

On this episode of "You're the Cure", Dr. Ben interviews Nelson Coulter, a man with quite a resume and as the Superintendent of the Guthrie school district he was the driving force behind the district stepping out of the federal lunch program and feeding the entire district real, healthy, and often locally sourced food. Hear how he realized this change needed to happen and the positive effects it had on the kids, and staff in Guthrie.

Today on the show, Dr. Edwards discussed Germ theory versus terrain in relation to a 17-year-old boy's brain infection that started as a sinus infection. He also discussed Dr. Weston A. Price's research and the various native people groups around the world in the 1930s who were healthy as long as they ate their traditional food, and became unhealthy when they began eating modern food. He read an excerpt from Dr. Price's book, Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, about an American man on a wilderness expedition who became very sick and encountered a native American Indian who knew what to do to cure his ailment. Other topics he touched on were whether to eat sardines in water or olive oil, fermented foods like sauerkraut, the connection between gut health and brain health and how a gym membership is not going to get you healthy without changing the way you eat.

Today on "You're the Cure" we talk more about Intermittent Fasting. The show's co-hosts, Wade and Melody, give some of their personal insights from their experiences with intermittent fasting too. You'll learn how fasting: -is probably the single most effective tool to for healing -increases Growth Hormone production 2,000% -reverses leaky gut -increases stem cell production -improves brain function -helps prevent seizures
