Hope cast thank you so much for being with us today how are you and what is going well well Simon I appreciate the
1:01
opportunity I appreciate the platform this is the best day of my life so far so I am good to go magical wonderful to
1:09
hear that well we're going to be talking about chronic disease and health empowerment today but before we jump into that um that topic would you mind
1:16
just telling us a little bit about who you are and what it is that you do please I am my Father's
1:24
son so I'm a licensed naturopathic physician um I'm currently you know I'm
1:30
in the US um I did my Premed at the University of Massachusetts four-year Bachelor of
1:37
Science Premed uh graduated in 1987 from that attended bastier University of
1:43
naturopathic medicine after that for four years had a thousand hours of clinical
1:48
Supervision in there somewhere graduated from naturopathic medical school in
1:54
1991 past national boards past state boards got licensed to practice
2:00
naturopathic medicine in 1992 and I've been doing 25 hours of
2:05
continuing education credit every year which is what's required to maintain a license to practice naturopathic
2:11
medicine in the US I also think in Canada as well currently there are only four medical schools which are fully
2:18
accredited by the United States Department of Education that teach naturopathic medicine uh and in the US and Canada
2:27
it's Primary Care however because we don't have a free medical
2:32
Market naturopathic medicine is not covered the services of a naturopathic position are not covered by Health
2:40
Canada and my profession in the states is only currently licensed and regulated in 24 States and in the state of
2:47
Tennessee believe it or not it's a felony to practice naturopathic medicine this brought to you by the
2:54
medical Monopoly which has been in power in North America since 1915
3:01
interesting can you just let us know a little bit what's the difference between a conventional medical doctor and a
3:06
naturopathic doctor how much time do you have Simon so so that the education in the basic
3:14
Sciences is exactly the same as a matter of fact we get more hours of anatomy and
3:19
physiology than a medical doctor gets right so all of the basic science stuff is the same anatomy and physiology and
3:26
biochemistry and pathology of disease and histopathology and diagnostic techniques
3:32
and everything is the same where we're different and remarkably so is in our understanding of
3:41
how to help the body fix itself in the application of our Therapeutics so medical doctors don't
3:49
practice medicine they practice allopathic medicine right I practice
3:55
naturopathic medicine there many different types of Medicine chiropratic homeopathic ayurvedic Etc right and your
4:02
medical doctor may be the nicest person God ever created but they don't practice medicine
4:08
Nobody Does your medical doctor practices allopathic medicine now there's a big difference between
4:15
allopathic medicine and naturopathic medicine quite frankly between
4:20
allopathic medicine and every other type of medicine in the world because allopaths are trained in a
4:26
reductionistic they're brought up inside of reductionistic world view reductionism is based upon
4:33
Newtonian physics and reductionism argues if it can't be measured it does not exist so since nobody's dissected
4:42
the soul out of the human body you're seeing it with an MRI or a CT or an x-ray it doesn't exist Heaven is a
4:49
fiction God is a fiction uh Consciousness itself is a function of biochemistry when the body dies it
4:54
Lights Out game over there is no inherent intelligence in the body the body does not have the ability to fix
5:01
itself and when disease occurs it must be managed with uh materialistic
5:07
pharmaceutical or surgical me surgical interventions naturopathic doctors and
5:13
every other type of holistic medicine in the world argues the opposite that God is real the spirit is
5:20
real the body is inhabited by an intelligent spiritual Force the body knows how to fix itself
5:27
the body wants to fix itself the body's trying to fix itself all of the time and so it therefore becomes the sacred
5:32
obligation of the holistic physician to develop and deliver Therapeutics that support the body's ability to fix itself
5:38
so in a nutshell the easiest way to understand the difference between an MD and me is that my profession develops
5:48
and delivers Therapeutics which are consistent with natural law which attempt to cure the
5:56
condition so I mean you go to a medical doctor they don't even know how to cure heartburn they'll manage it they can't
6:02
cure blood pressure they manage it they can't cure arthritis they manage it they can't cure depression they manage it they can't cure infertility they manage
6:09
it the only things really that they can cure are bacterial infections and those are starting to
6:15
fail because of antibiotic resistant bacterial strains but the point here is
6:21
that your medical doctor may be the nicest person God ever created but your medical doctor doesn't
6:26
practice medicine they practice allopathic medicine and allopathic medicine teaches its
6:32
practitioners to manage the disease so they don't really practice Health Care
6:38
it should be against the law for a medical doctor to say that they practice health care because you're not getting
6:43
healthier under their care medical doctors practice disease management and
6:48
there's a gigantic difference between healthc care and disease management and don't get me wrong Simon I mean I'm very
6:53
outspoken about this and because the scales have been shifted so much in the
6:59
advantage of the MDS for over hundred years now it seems like I'm bashing the medical doctors but I'm not no I have a
7:06
good friend who's a medical doctor he's a very famous orthopedic surgeon and you know sometimes you need the
7:11
surgery I mean you know every time I'm in the dentist chair I thank God for lidocain right it's like oh my God so
7:19
it's not that the medical doctors are bad and evil and everybody else is great it's that here's what the medical
7:25
doctors are good at here's what they're bad at here's what the holistic doctors
7:31
are good at here's what they're bad at you choose yeah what's Wild is this there's never been this um attempt at a
7:39
clear integation of the two obviously we need allopathic medicine we need
7:44
surgeries we need need some of these medications but you just have to look at
7:49
the state of the health of the Western World whether that's in Canada or the us or the UK where I'm from people just are
7:55
not healthy and you would think in 2024 with all this medicine with all these drugs of all this research that we would be at the top of our game biologically
8:03
where we just we just do not see that and I've been lucky enough for for 10
8:08
years last 10 years in my life to be surrounded by um holistic practitioners
8:14
and it's helped me understand the fact that these traditional medicines that are still used today by naturopathic
8:21
doctors by TCM practitioners iic practitioners these are thousands of year old that you know they predate
8:27
alpath Medicine by by centuries and to
8:33
call um us unconventional or alternative or
8:38
complimentary it doesn't quite do do us just service considering the historical
8:44
relevance of you know natural medicine if you're 100% you're a spoton 100%
8:50
correct right saying that what we do is alternative is like saying well the only real dog is a German
8:56
shepherd and every other dog is an alternative dog right that's nonsense right but that's how we have all been
9:04
socialized over the last 100 years and that's because of the medical Monopoly
9:09
that exists in the world since the early 1900s I mean in the US the only thing that can legally treat
9:16
a disease as a drug I mean you've got to be kidding me and that's a law here in the United
9:22
States and you know look the reason that we have a chronic Health epidemic Alzheimer's through the roof
9:29
autism through the roof obesity through the roof just as many people get heart disease now as they did before statin
9:35
drugs arthritis is on the rise everything we're getting sicker and the life expectancy is getting shorter and
9:41
the reason that this is happening is not because of bad genes it's not because of chemtrails which are a very real thing
9:47
by the way it's not because of 5G radiation it's because your medical
9:53
doctor the person the the medical profession that has been in charge of
9:59
the the development and the delivery of medicine for the last 100 years is the wrong dog for the
10:04
hunt it's the medical doctor's fault that we have a chronic disease epidemic because they do not know how the human
10:11
body works and their Therapeutics on their best day their Therapeutics can
10:17
only manage the problem so the older that you get the sicker you get the more dependent on the drugs you get the
10:23
weaker that you get and then you die then oh by the way in the US before you die you go bankrupt
10:30
and then you die because the leading cause of bankruptcy in the US is medical bills yeah I just you know I think about
10:37
how we have come to a point where the general public even from a very young age becomes let's I'm going to use the
10:42
word brainwashed here to having a doctor is our only possible
10:48
choice that they that that's what a lot of people believe and you know kids they play doctor and I'm sure hundred hundred
10:56
years ago thousand years ago there would be a natural medicine man or woman
11:02
Within These communities that would you know be providing tinctures and teas and puses from a very young age and kids
11:10
would most certainly be a part of the you know the uh the whole process of
11:15
picking plants and pressing plants and producing these medicines and I just think now we don't have that within our
11:23
culture with it within our you know educational purposes for children and we
11:28
end up just you know we go we just we play doctor and then we go to the doctor and that's you know we we feel we feel
11:34
sickness or uh medicine or we need help that's like our only choice and I don't
11:40
know if that's like a a deliberate deliberate marketing it's definitely
11:45
deliberate it was definitely done on purpose I can tell you the people who did it
11:51
historically and um honest to God I mean I've been doing this for 36 years now
11:56
man you know 36 years I've treated thousands of people you wouldn't number
12:02
one you wouldn't believe the things I've seen people recover from number one and number two well you might believe the
12:09
things but most people wouldn't and number two as bad as people
12:15
are starting to see conventional medicine is because people are waking up from all of the lies and deceptions from
12:22
covid time right people are starting to snap out of it I'm telling you man as bad as
12:27
you think it is it's a thousand times worse yeah well
12:33
it's obviously has a significant lengthy history and you know I I I think you
12:39
know I'm up in Canada and our politics here are horrific and especially when it
12:44
comes around health and natural health we have our own um battles currently in regards to having access to Natural
12:51
Health Products which health Canada our government entity is doing their very best to just take them away and not give
12:56
us even that option so people's only option will pharmaceutical medications so we have these huge big problems and I
13:03
just think back and look back at the the history within the states of the the lobbyists and the money and the power
13:10
from pharmaceutical industry like embedded in there and how that's just it's just kind of like the way it is at
13:16
the moment and I um you mentioned about like arthritis going up and and dementa
13:23
and Alzheimer's going up all these diseases On The Rise but I tell you what else is also on the rise is is the profits for these very large
13:29
organizations who their the bottom line for their for their CEOs and that big
13:35
decision makers is is to make money it's not to create good health outcomes for Americans you know so it's once I think
13:41
once you take a very simple look at that then people have to start asking questions well inside of the current
13:48
Paradigm and you're absolutely 100% spoton inside of the current allopathic pharmaceutical Centrist Paradigm a
13:54
patient cured is a customer loss so it's not in the interests of the
14:00
current medical system to cure anybody of anything because if you did that well there go your profits and I've said this
14:08
if I've said this once I've said it a thousand times that if by some genie in the
14:14
bottle magic we all woke up tomorrow and there was in fact medical
14:22
Freedom that people in all countries had access to all types of medicine everything was paid for by Insurance
14:28
equal access to Med to hospitals for all medical practitioners if universities
14:34
did research half of their research on holistic Therapeutics and half of their research on reductionistic Therapeutics
14:41
if that were to happen just as many naturopathic doctors and homeopathic doctors and ayurvedic
14:48
doctors and acupuncturist as MDS and there was equal access to everybody if
14:53
that happened in one year the medical doctors who weren't surgeons
15:00
or traumacare people would be out of a job M because in a free market people
15:06
gravitate towards what works the only reason that the medical doctors are everywhere all the time the
15:13
only reason that the medical doctors maintain first place the only reason because their Therapeutics are
15:20
horrible um is because they legislated themselves there and they maintained their position at the top with the
15:26
unbelievable political persuasion and financial power of the pharmaceutical industry it is a
15:32
self-regulating self-policing monopoly it is literally killing us and it needs to be excised you know like a tumor yeah
15:42
that overlap between Private Industry politics and health it's never been a good combination and yeah we can see see
15:48
the the fruits of it um so you said that you mentioned there only four
15:54
naturopathic schools in the US that that can that are licensed or accredit is
15:59
that is that what you mentioned before yeah and there's one in Canada um one in Canada there's one in Seattle there's
16:05
one in Oregon Portland Oregon there's one in Arizona and there's one in
16:11
Illinois why so why so few because the pharmaceutical industry
16:17
doesn't because of the medical Monopoly I mean this from the Department of redundancy Department it all goes back to the
16:25
Monopoly the medical doctors the pharmaceutical industry they do not want
16:31
competition in the United States in 1912 Congress granted the American
16:37
Medical Association exclusive control over who couldn't who couldn't practice medicine wow it was a hostile takeover
16:44
of the medical Market by the by the MDS and this was this was um uh bankrolled
16:50
by the carnegies and the Rockefellers who for like one out of
16:55
maybe three times in their entire history they pulled their funds together and their resources together towards a
17:01
common objective and the objective was that the absolute takeover of the medical market and they did it so the
17:08
chiropractors kicked off the bus the nature paths kicked off the bus the homeopaths kicked off the bus everybody
17:14
who wasn't an MD kicked off the bus it's illegal to practice medicine unless you're an MD right I mean it's good for
17:20
the MDS it's bad for everybody else and we've been you know claing our way back
17:27
into the mainstream ever but people are so socialized and brainwashed by hundred
17:33
years of this medical Monopoly I mean let's be honest Simon I mean most people
17:38
don't even know how to pronounce naturopathy let alone know what the hell a naturopathic doctor is or what they can do that's right and that's because
17:46
of the medical Monopoly yeah it's absolutely wild and I just want to talk about like the
17:51
consumer for a second so why do you think people are um so fed up and dis
17:57
disillusioned with with convention medicine because it doesn't work it doesn't cure anything the only thing
18:04
that it works for is traumacare and and that's interesting because in the last hundred years all of the advances in medicine
18:12
which there have been many of are in the surgical Arena better surgical techniques better surgical drugs you
18:20
know robotic surgery the stuff that they can do with surgery now is unbelievable but for everything else all
18:28
of the things everybody goes to the doctor for all the time for all of that stuff the
18:33
allopathic method does not offer cures so the longer that people are
18:39
under the care of the medical doctor the sicker that they get the poorer that they get and people are starting to wake
18:45
up to it that you know sickness has become The New Normal now here not only
18:51
in the United States but in the world and I am telling you man it is not because you have a bad
18:57
Gene it's not because the reason that people are sick and getting sicker is
19:04
because the medical doctors are the wrong profession to go to for health
19:09
care they're the perfect profession to go through for trauma care but they're the wrong dog for the
19:16
hunt for healthcare and if you continue to go to them you must get sicker you must get weaker you must get more
19:22
dependent on drugs you must get more dependent on surgery and then you die yeah well I'm sure you see this as well
19:29
but here at true hope Canada we you know we're a mind and body based supplement company and our primary product Empower
19:34
plus is the most researched micronutrient on the planet and so many people end up coming to us you know I
19:40
have the pleasure of running our website and running running our marketing so a lot of people who find us they come
19:46
through out those channels and they speak with me and so many of them have just been um yeah they've been
19:53
disillusioned for sometimes decades by um petrochemical Med Med and they are
20:01
yeah they're sick they're Fed Up and unfortunately they've you know been on multiple medications none of them of
20:07
which worked they've had to go on other medications to deal with the side effects of the original medications and
20:13
it ends up taking a lot a lot of years a lot of experience a lot of pain a lot of
20:18
trauma before uh they start looking for alternative routs and um I'm just lucky
20:24
and blessed that you know I work for a company that is there offering this wild incredible solution that supports so
20:32
many different ailments from anxiety and depression to bipolar and schizophrenia all these all these disorders that as
20:38
you said we've spoken before like the conventional medicine doesn't have a cure for any of these I wanted to ask
20:44
you would you mind explaining to people who might not understand this yet that why it's not in the benefit of a drug
20:51
company you say that we've seen these amazing um advances in surgical
20:57
operations and and equipments and techniques and things but when it comes to like pharmaceutical drugs I just
21:03
imagine the amount of money that's been put towards like finding a cure for cancer that's been like you know it's
21:08
been propagated significantly over 50 years why would it not be in the best interest for a drug company to find
21:15
something that um that that cures the disease that it's attempting to do
21:20
because then the patient would no longer need to buy the product so that's why it's 100% money
21:28
driven it's a profit it's a financial situation it's not a humanitarian situation pharmaceutical industry
21:35
doesn't care about making people healthy the pharmaceutical industry cares about
21:40
selling drugs and if you have a drug that cures
21:45
asthma or if you had then the patient would need to take it the asthma would be gone they wouldn't need to take the
21:51
drug anymore but if you have a drug that manages asthma well the patient needs to
21:56
take it all the time so that's why It ultimately comes down to simple dollars and cents simple
22:02
money and you know this is a big this is a big come to Jesus aha moment for a lot
22:08
of people and you know I'm not there's nothing wrong with making money but you
22:15
know when it comes to Medicine quite frankly there ought to be a law oh and there is a law the law says
22:23
in the United States and Canada and the European Union thanks to codex elementarius
22:29
that the only thing that can legally treat a disease is a drug which is why by the way if you go to the health food
22:34
store it doesn't say arthritis RX it says Bone and Joint support yeah doesn't
22:40
say schizophrenia help it says you know cognition support
22:46
or whatever right because you cannot relate the sale of a nutritional supplement in the US to the mitigation
22:52
or treatment of a disease that's illegal yeah we have um we do a lot of work with
22:57
the national uh sorry the Natural Health Products Protection Association and their president is a constitutional
23:04
lawyer called sha Buckley and he very frequently uses the example here in Canada that if he was to offer you water
23:11
for your dehydration he's just turned water into a into a drug to treat a disease therefore he's broken several
23:19
laws and um yeah it's it's really sad but and quite laughable at the same time
23:25
and it's a tragedy of biblical proportions and you know a I mean you don't know much about my Therapeutics or
23:31
what I do but I'm a gigantic fan of Medical Nutrition um I've seen Medical Nutrition
23:37
fix things that that are un unbelievable um and see this is one of the biggest
23:43
disconnects that exist in the world and this again brought to you by the medical Monopoly this from the Department of
23:50
redundancy Department I'm tired to beat this horse over and over again but it's we need to do it because people are not
23:55
aware of it so here's the fundamental naturopathic
24:01
reality the human body is inhabited by an intelligent spiritual Force I don't care what you call it it's running the
24:08
show it's intelligent the body is so smart it grew
24:14
itself all by itself from one cell into us and right now our bodies are
24:20
literally not figuratively literally managing billions of
24:27
biochemical processes all of which are completely outside of our conscious control well what's run in that
24:35
show the indwelling spirit Call It Whatever you will it's not a religious conversation it's a spiritual
24:41
conversation the body knows how to fix itself the body wants to fix itself the body is trying to fix itself but it
24:47
needs help we need to drink water we need to eat food we need to put warm
24:53
clothes on when we go outside we need to breathe air we don't do these things the body's going to die die well guess what
25:00
there's other things that we need to do in order to support the body's built-in ability to fix itself and giving the
25:06
body the proper nutrition is fundamentally soundly important if you do not do that correctly it's only a
25:13
matter of time until something breaks and then the person's in trouble so they've got a symptom they've
25:20
got a diagnosis they've got something have no idea what caused it and they go to a medical doctor who has no idea what
25:27
caused it then the medical doctor throws a drug at it to manage the symptom not to cure the
25:33
condition and now they're in a world of hurt whereas had they just done the medical nutrition
25:39
intervention nine times out of 10 it goes away why because the body wants to fix it but the body needs raw materials
25:47
in order to fix it and these raw materials are no longer in our food and
25:52
we're screwed glued and tattooed because of it yeah I think that the the point you bring up about
25:58
the spiritual aspect of health is is huge and I think we have significantly
26:04
severed that um that that part of our understanding to us I think I think that we had this six sense that would connect
26:12
us with with nature with the cosmos of all with all of these things around us and I think that we have we have lost
26:18
that and people people are slowly tiptoeing back to understanding that
26:23
they needs they they need something bigger than what they've got whether that's a connection to a religion a church a community whatever
26:31
that may be um many different Industries have severed that medicine for sure telecommunications of cell phones has
26:38
severed a spiritual connection that we have with other human beings and um we
26:43
are seeing significant ramifications of that with with our with our bodies I I
26:49
completely agree with you we have this innate Universal intelligence within our bodies that does absolutely
26:56
remarkable things quick story that kind of blew my mind 10 years ago when I really got into Natural Health my my my
27:02
father had um he he drank a lot in his 20s and 30s and his liver was completely
27:07
pickled by the time he was 50 and he needed he needed a new liver and he was on the transplant list for um a couple
27:14
of years in the UK it's usually six months before you could get a new one but it been two years and eventually my
27:20
parents took the idea of they watched a documentary and they saw a live organ transplant and my mother ended up in
27:27
this they ended up in this 15h hour operation where my mother gave 70% 70%
27:33
of her liver to my dad and um when I even heard that that this was even a PO
27:40
possibility and then I spoke with the surgeons who did it and then saw that it worked it just absolutely blew my mind
27:47
that the the one that they could actually do that and that's a really incredible example of of surgical a
27:53
surgical medical alpath procedure that you know saved both of my parents life was saved my par my D's life but the
27:59
fact that the body had the ability to work with that foreign organ and regenerate for my mom so she's
28:07
absolutely fine and healthy now is just like it absolutely blew my mind and opened me up to the idea that there is
28:13
so much more that I do not see think feel or touch that is controlling
28:18
everything and it goes from like the smallest cell to the biggest stars you know well you're 100% on spot on again
28:25
and here's a fun fact to no one tell the liver is the only organ in the human body that can in fact regenerate itself
28:33
you can remove I think up to 70 72 75% of it it'll grow back it's what happened
28:39
to your mother yeah that's how she was able to do that so there are biochemical
28:45
processes in the human body which support and promote um hepat neogenesis
28:51
which is fancy schmancy doct talk for the Regeneration of liver cells it is entirely possible
28:58
had your father seen me or somebody like me that we would have been to regenerate
29:05
his liver without the need for surgery I've seen it happen I completely agree with you right but I mean it's a point
29:12
that's well taken that sometimes you need the surgery I mean right this is not a diet tribe against all things
29:20
medicine this is look it's not the gun it's how you use it it's not the drug
29:25
it's how you use it this is the situation that we're up against here but inside of a medical
29:31
Monopoly right when all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail so even if you don't in point OFA need
29:37
surgery the surgeon isn't going to know that um that that orthopedic doctor who's a good friend of mine his name is
29:44
Dave Janda and um he's very famous guy in his own in his own world you know
29:51
celebrities would all over the world would come to see him because he was so good at what he did um he had really bad arthritis in
29:59
his neck and he was taking pain meds and more pain meds and anti-inflammatories
30:04
and you know he's getting ready to have surgery he found me I told him what to do he did it and I think it was within
30:12
four to six weeks and his arthritis is completely gone an orthopedic
30:18
surgeon he didn't know what he didn't know but he was open-minded enough to
30:23
say well okay you're a licensed physician you you've got 36 years of
30:28
clinical experience in a discipline that I have no experience with okay what do I have to lose let's see what
30:34
happens and and you're absolutely right about something else that you said earlier that the vast majority of people
30:40
who come to see me or any of my colleagues you know we're not their first choice we're their last
30:48
Choice people come to see us after they've exhausted everything else so let's go see the crazy nature path what
30:53
do we have to lose and more often than not we'll fix them yeah well it's yeah it's it's it's
31:01
wonderful when people do find an naturopath or they find even just like yoga or meditation or they stop spending
31:08
so much time indoors and they you know these and they use light medicine you know to start helping them it's all
31:14
wonderful it's all it's it's all amazing and um you talk a lot on your on your
31:19
website and on some of your podcasts that you you you don't want you don't want um patients you want students so
31:26
can you tell us a little bit more about that well thank you for saying that that's that's an interesting thing to
31:32
think about isn't it sure is right I mean the root if you look up the word
31:38
doctor in Latin it means teacher that's number one number two is
31:43
this was a come to Jesus moment for me this was an aha moment for me in my professional career very humbling I've
31:50
had a number of them this was one of them so I'm working with a another nature AIC
31:58
doctor who was in charge of a $25 million research project that happened over the course of 10 years he did
32:05
10,000 autopsies a million histopathologies um it was a remarkable
32:10
body of work which now is in the Smithsonian institution in the United States it's a national treasure it
32:17
basically rewrote our understanding of the the relationship between nutrients
32:23
and health it was a fantastic body of work and I mentored with this guy for 12
32:28
years and I'm in a room in kakei Illinois which is a you
32:34
know a middle class suburb with about 80 other people in the room plus me and my mentor and we were
32:41
the only people with more than a um high school education in the entire
32:47
room and these people had been following Medical Nutrition course of treatment for a long time and one guy would get up
32:54
he'd raise his hand he had a testimony another guy would get up he'd raise his hand he had a testimony other guy would get up he'd raise his hand he had a tell
32:59
all these people had had remarkable recoveries of their health not with a private
33:06
appointment with a doctor but with good old-fashioned Medical
33:12
Nutrition right so it was like oh my
33:18
God I had no idea number one that this was possible because I wasn't taught anything like this in medical school but
33:24
here were the I mean here was the proof and more proof and more proof and more
33:30
proof and more proof so The Humbling moment here was that
33:36
most people suffering with a chronic disease they don't need a private
33:42
appointment most people just need to be told look you should stop eating these Foods because they're going to hurt you
33:48
you should start eating these Foods because they're going to help you and you should take these nutrients into your body on a regular basis and it's
33:55
also a good idea every once in a while to do a very good detoxification program to get all the crap that's in your body
34:01
out of the body and it's also a good idea once or twice a year to do a kill the parasite program because that stuff
34:07
is in the body and it's going to hurt you people just need to be told what to
34:13
do but because of the medical Monopoly ain't none of that going to
34:18
happen here because we don't want people to be empowered we don't want people to get healthy we don't want people to know
34:24
what to do we want sick people yeah and we we've taken um we've taken a lot of
34:30
the responsibility or the personal responsibility you have to be healthy away with this medical model of going to
34:36
the doctor getting a prescription filling it taking that and that deals
34:41
with your problem right rather than everybody's got the ability and
34:48
responsibility and choice to eat certain foods and avoid certain other foods to move their body to get outside to you
34:55
know practice some sort of maybe spiritual um have a spiritual practice
35:00
within their life like we all have this like personal responsibility and it does take time it does take work and effort
35:06
and it's going to take the change in neural Pathways you know it's going to have to change habits it's not easy
35:12
thing to do for for some people but it is available it is there and a lot of these things that we're talking about
35:19
are quite simple fundamental things that we can provide the body to do what it does best which
35:25
is to you know make us feel well healed us and do all these wonderful things and we see here at true hope people who have
35:33
been chronically nutrient deficient for decades and then they take a combination
35:39
of a couple of our products and because they're absorbed so well regardless of your gut Integrity that within days
35:45
people can start feeling significant effects because their body has not had quality nutrition get into their brain
35:52
or into their body for years and for years for their entire life since the
35:58
moment of conception their entire life they've been walking around planet Earth in an under nutrifii body and people
36:04
just think that that's normal they think it's normal to have headaches they think it's normal to have really bad menstrual
36:09
cramps they think it's normal to have insomnia yeah I think it's normal to have heartburn it's not these things
36:15
these things the only reason that you have these things is because your medical doctor has no idea what to do to
36:22
fix it and you've been quite frankly lied to your entire life about what to do to fix it honest to God Simon if
36:29
people are smart enough to pass the driver's license test they're smart enough to learn what
36:35
to do to help their body to fix itself it's not rocket science it's not difficult you just need to go to the
36:41
right source to have somebody line it up for you yeah and this the source is hugely important I think that we have um
36:47
we have an obligation to our children to help educate them from a young age about what nutrition is what what are
36:53
micronutrients what are macronutrients what does that mean for the body and um
36:58
we could talk again like all day about like food pyramids and food plates and the the influence within government of
37:05
like big Agriculture and big sugar and all of these other industries that you know influence politics that influences
37:12
and governance people you know that's that's another podcast series that you and I can can talk about but the fact of
37:19
the matter is that we have been po poorly poorly misguided um and I don't
37:26
know whether like politicians or or or people within government have known that but like you know money talks and we all
37:32
know about the influence of of money and power and ego within politics and
37:37
unfortunately it's the people who are governed that will you know be on the be on the back end of that unfortunately so
37:45
yeah it's um we have a lot of responsibility you know me as a parent having influence within the schools and
37:50
my kids as well but you know i' like to think that we are going in the right direction somewhat I want to ask you
37:57
about because it's October 3rd right now there's a massive election in your country which um will um have impact
38:05
around the world and I wanted to get your opinion on make America healthy again with Robert Kennedy Jr's you know
38:11
I've never seen a politician I've lived in the UK Canada the states and Sweden
38:17
and I've never seen a politician come out talking about the horrific nature of of health and the influence of
38:24
government the influence of Industry on the health of individual like I've never seen it before and I just wondered what
38:29
your your opinion in is on it well thank you for asking that's an excellent
38:34
question um by the way I've been on a million podcasts man yeah I mean maybe
38:42
not a million I've been on a lot and um you're you're asking really really
38:49
really good questions so thank you for that I appreciate it um it's it's rare in this
38:56
industry so hats off to you okay okay good so all right so Bobby
39:03
Kennedy you know let's make America healthy again so he has some good ideas
39:08
you know he needs to re in the Food and Drug Administration need to make you know those people accountable uh need to
39:15
have penalties for drug manufacturers that develop products that hurt people
39:21
have to have penalties for drug manufacturers that mislead people through you know false advertising and
39:27
all of which by the way is legal in the US to do now you need to clean up you know the environment that's a great idea
39:34
need to take process foods out of school lunches that's a great idea but all of
39:40
these things are not going to fix the fundamental problem the fundamental problem is the
39:47
system itself we do not have medical
39:53
Freedom we do not have a free medical market and I don't mean free like nobody has to pay for it I mean freedom of
39:58
choice in medicine we do not have it it is the current medical system right
40:06
now overseen in a monopolistic sense by the MDS the American Medical Association
40:13
and the pharmaceutical industry you don't have access to homeopathic medicine naturopathic medicine ayurvedic
40:20
medicine traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture Botanical medicine Hands-On healing we don't have access to any of
40:27
that it's MD directed pharmaceutical Centrist reductionistic medicine every day every way all the time shut up and
40:33
take your medicine Damn the Torpedoes in Full Speed Ahead it is the system itself
40:39
that's the problem I mean the chronic disease epidemic happened while the medical doctors were
40:46
in exclusive control of everything it happened on their watch yeah it's not
40:52
because they're bad evil sadistic people it's because the their the philosophy of medicine that they're trained in is
40:58
insufficient to the cause but they will never admit that they're wrong so what needs to happen is the system itself
41:06
needs to change the Food and Drug Administration needs to be eliminated or their Charter
41:11
needs to be Rewritten well by the way the Food and Drug Administration is doing an excellent job because their
41:18
Charter when they were founded was to protect the pharmaceutical industry because that was considered a um
41:25
national security issue right and they're doing a wonderful job at that because everybody who comes up with
41:32
a non-drug treatment is thrown in jail right for goodness sakes so it is the
41:37
system itself that needs to change and it's ironic because there was a you know
41:43
one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence Dr Benjamin Rush here's
41:49
what he said in the 1700s and I'm paraphrasing unless we put medical
41:54
Freedom into the Constitution the the time will come when medicine will organize itself into a dictatorship to
42:01
restrict the art of healing to one class of people and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the bastial of
42:08
Medical Science all such laws are unamerican and despotic and that is exactly what's happened that is why we
42:14
have a chronic Health disease epidemic it's not because we don't have cures my I've been my profession has
42:20
been helping people to recover their health for hundreds of years the homeopaths for hundreds of years the
42:25
ayurvedic doctors for hundreds of years the cures are available they're just not legalized
42:33
right and this is the problem it's the whole freaking system needs to change I don't think Bobby Kennedy has the chops
42:38
to do that yeah I think I think he knows that the the tering down the system is
42:44
is the is the answer but I think that yeah like it's a step-by-step process
42:49
for sure and um yeah I'm not sure what it's going to take but yeah we have the same we have the same problems in Canada
42:55
in regards to Health Canada they um yeah they you'll never you won't see anything
43:01
within their Charter or their their mission that they are charged
43:07
with creating good good health outcomes for Canadians like it's just not there they are there to um protect
43:13
International property rights and basically isn't it nuts it's insane
43:19
people don't people won't believe you that's like the big that's the big that's the big lie that um that Sean Buckley that lawyer I was talking to you
43:25
about earlier like he he'll say say says that on podcasts all over the all over the world and people just can't believe
43:31
that like you know Health Canada Canada especially this great nation of taking care of people and politeness that that
43:37
would be the agenda of like a government agency but you know when you just you don't have to look far when you realize that two thirds of their income are
43:44
coming from pharmaceutical the pharmaceutical industry and they refer to them as clients like it's not a
43:50
difficult thing to comprehend but yeah we slowly I hope we just like with podcasts like these having conversations
43:55
with you and having making these connections that slowly we can start you know helping people we'll start changing
44:01
minds and giving people the idea of having different ideas and when it comes
44:08
to their health that they make alternative choices but we obviously have to stand firm and make sure that
44:14
those choices are available because the powers would be obviously trying to make it a know a one-way streak for people
44:20
when it comes to health and Medicine yeah well you know the truth has a ring to it right and the only reason that my
44:27
profession continues to exist inside of such a hostile political climate is that
44:33
more often than not it works yeah and why does it work because it's based on natural law which is inviolate right
44:41
this is an interesting thing to talk about um right because if you look at
44:48
the halls of conventional medicine MD directed allopathic medicine are
44:54
littered with the discarded remains of treatments which were standard of care
44:59
in their day and if you didn't practice this you were a quack and you were kicked off the bus of medicine like
45:05
bloodletting high doses of calamel purging of the human body right those were standard of care back in their day
45:14
the halls of conventional medicine are littered with those discarded remains because conventional medicine is
45:20
anything but scientific their Therapeutics are not based on natural law their Therapeutics
45:28
are based on reality by consensus holistic medicine is the
45:33
opposite we don't ever discard anything in naturopathic medicine we add new
45:39
things to it because we learn new things that's why it's called the practice of medicine you learn new things well
45:44
that's great right right now there's 90 essential nutrients maybe tomorrow we'll
45:50
discover one more in his 91 essential nutrients whatever but my point is that holistic Therapeutics naturopathic
45:57
Therapeutics homeopathic Therapeutics are based on natural law it's not natural belief it's natural
46:04
law which exists whether you believe in it or not and which never changes so
46:10
when you have your fingers on the pulse of natural law your Therapeutics are
46:15
effective and as time goes by you add new things to it but you never discard anything
46:22
because you're you have built your medicine on a really solid foundation of
46:29
Natural Therapeutics it's like you know basing a therapeutic on the laws of gravity it's like it well it's not going
46:36
to ever change so here we are yeah you said it perfectly at the beginning of the show that that the reductionist view
46:44
that that reductionist value of of alpath medicine will never have the ability the full broad spectrum scope of
46:52
a holistic view at looking at everything that makes up somebody and their health
46:58
and their nutrition um it's not it's not even comparable but um I want to just
47:05
finish up by just asking asking you to let us know where people can connect with you and can people can learn more
47:10
about what you do please well all you need to do is just close your eyes and concentrate really hard and my website
47:17
will pop up into your third eye magic love it if people can't get
47:23
into that meditative State what's an alternative route
47:28
well thank you for that I I will tell you I I I do want to say one more thing that to to kind of you know put
47:35
parenthesis on this and and end it please okay I I appreciate your um you
47:41
know you're letting me kind of grandstand here I really do appreciate it so your medical doctor may be the
47:49
nicest person that God ever created but your medical doctor doesn't practice medicine they practice allopathic medicine which is reductionistic and
47:56
it's philos opical underpinnings and your medical doctor may be a very religious person when they in their
48:01
private life but when they go to work they're an atheist because allopathic medicine does
48:08
not believe in the spirit it does not believe in the soul it does not believe in the vital force it does not believe
48:14
in any of that as a matter of fact your medical doctor believes that Consciousness itself is a function of
48:21
biochemistry and when the body dies everything dies it's Lights Out game over there's no life after death there's
48:26
no spirit there's no nothing it's all a fiction this is what the medical doctor
48:31
believes and they're wrong and because they believe this it
48:36
is impossible for them to figure out what to do to help the body to heal
48:42
itself because the fundamental driver of healing in the human body is the indwelling spirit that's what's running
48:48
the show and if you don't believe in that you've thrown the baby out with the bath water and you will never ever never
48:55
ever ever never never ever ever never never never never be able to help
49:01
anybody heal help anybody recover their health you just be able to manage things Kick
49:07
the Can down the road Kick the Can down the road Kick the Can down the road and that's what we've all gotten used to because of the medical Monopoly and it's
49:14
a crying freaking shame you know Simon will tell you the remarkable things he's seen people
49:22
recover from I'll tell you the remarkable things I've seen people recover from
49:27
we do not have the answer to all human ailments we do not but we have a very sophisticated science-based clinically
49:34
verified approach which is built upon the foundation of natural law developed
49:40
through the inductive scientific method it's fantastic but you don't know anything about it because of the medical Monopoly
49:47
and you're suffering because of it so if you're watching this podcast God bless
49:52
you now you need to take action you need to do something
49:58
because your body's ability to fix itself is a thousand times greater than anybody has led you to believe and
50:05
regretfully because of the political climate you need to Source these answers out yourself because they're not going
50:11
to fall out of the sky and if you're waiting for big government to help you figure this out good
50:17
luck this information exists right now so Source it out check it out educate
50:22
yourself and apply it because honest to God you simply do not know what you're missing my website
50:30

50:36
