From Coast to Coast AM on 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,760 Speaker 1: iHeart Radio twice a month for two hours each time. 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: With our sponsors and our partners Critical health news dot Com, 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: we bring you segments on health issues that can affect you, 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 1: that will hopefully help you. Tonight, pharmacists been back with 6 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: us on Coast to Coast. Registered pharmacist and nutritionist, cosmetic 7 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: chemist has been compounding custom medication for years now. He 8 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: is an accomplished speaker and of course a regular guest 9 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: here on Coast to Coast. He is part of the 10 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: Critical Health News dot Com team. Ben, Welcome to the program. 11 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: We've got so many questions for you, and of course 12 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 1: we'll start phone calls early with you because people are 13 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: calling already. Story. It's nice to talk to you again. 14 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: This story about chemotherapy may spreading cancer something we always 15 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: suspected and now in a study they're saying it happens. Well, 16 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, these are things that biochemists understood and healthcare 17 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: professionals have known. Sin chemotherapist. Right, chemotherapy shuts down the 18 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: growth of cells. But that's the very logic of it. 19 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: Cancer cells are proliferating, dividing rapidly, so the logic is, 20 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: we don't, we just give chemotherapy and will slow down 21 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: the growth of self. However, as it turns out the 22 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,479 Speaker 1: immune system, the cells of the immune system are also 23 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: dividing rapidly, The cells of the digestive system are also 24 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: dividing rapidly. The cells of the skin are also dividing rapidly, 25 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: and so by suppressing cell growth, you end up suppressing 26 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: the cells of the immune system, the cells of the 27 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: digestive system, and the cells of the skin. And this 28 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: is why people on chemotherapy notoriously have digestive problems, they 29 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: have skin health problems, and they have immune problems. The 30 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 1: logic of shutting down the immune system, George, of shutting 31 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: down the body's biochemical defense weaponry beggars believe it's craziness. Now, 32 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: I understand that if you have if you have cancer, 33 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: you get desperate, you want to do, you need to 34 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: do what you have to do. But there's absolutely no 35 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: way you are going to avoid shutting down cell division 36 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: and cell growth, particularly of the digesticyst in the skin 37 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 1: and the immune system. And when that happens, of course, 38 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: you're a little likelihood of of further cancers as well 39 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 1: as further immune problems is going to is going to proceed. 40 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: This is why people have these disastrous side effects, George. 41 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: When we have cancer, and we have cancer cells, they 42 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: are our cells. So by killing yourselves, your cancer selves, 43 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: you're killing your very own selves. When a cell turns cancerous, 44 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: it takes years and years and years of environmental toxicity. 45 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: By that, I mean cellular environmental toxicity. Sugar and and 46 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: drugs and alcohol and cigarettes, smoke. It's cancer doesn't really 47 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: occur unless the body is toxic. And unfortunately, George, we 48 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: have created an environment that is almost systematically and consciously 49 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: designed to create toxicity inside the body. And this is 50 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: why I'm on record and Dr Walak is on record, 51 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 1: and we talk all the time about how important it 52 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: is to get the good nutritional supplement program. That's the 53 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: only way we can defeat this toxic environment that we've 54 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: been born into and that we're condemned to live in. 55 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: Uh And there's really no way to clean it up, 56 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: at least in our lifetimes, but we can protect ourselves. 57 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: For every ten emails Bend that I get for you 58 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: and Dr Joy and Conaway and Doc Walack, I will 59 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: get maybe two people who are vehemently opposed to supplementation. 60 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: I mean just vehement. I mean they they hate you guys. 61 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: It's tragic, it's awful, and it's so sad, and a 62 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: lot of it, in fairness to those folks, a lot 63 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: of it is because people don't supplement strategically. They just 64 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: take the latest formula or the single single vitamin here 65 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: or there. The reason the supplementation doesn't work for everybody, 66 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: and the reason why sometimes it gets a bad rap, 67 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: is because it's not done in a conscious and strategic fashion. 68 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: And that's why at Critical Health News we're so adamant 69 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: about what we call the Mighty cent Nutrients and the 70 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: Healthy Start Pack. I don't like this idea of what 71 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: I call this for that, where you take this vitamin 72 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: for that ailment, or you take this particular formula for 73 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: that s well. Doc Walach refuses in In the beginning, 74 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: when I just started to get to know him, it 75 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: was frustrating because I would ask him a question about 76 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: what supplement are you talking about? And he won't say, 77 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: he won't single it out because he as he says, 78 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: and rightfully so now as I've learned, he said, it's 79 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: the encompassing package. It's not just that one thing. It's 80 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,679 Speaker 1: like when you play baseball, you know you've got nine players. 81 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: It's not like the third basement is more important than 82 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: the shortstop or the catcher. You can have the best 83 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: eight players in the world, but if you don't have 84 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: a center field or you're not gonna win many games. 85 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: Nutritional supplementation and nutrients, what we call the mighty ninety nutrients, 86 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,239 Speaker 1: essential nutrients, vitamins, mineral and essential fatty acids, and essential 87 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: meno acids are like players on a team. They're all important. 88 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 1: You can't be missing any of them. But unfortunately we 89 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 1: know that the way we eat today, because of food 90 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: processing and because of soil depletion, there's no way to 91 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 1: get the nutrients that the nineti essential nutrients that you 92 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: need simply by eating. Supplementing is an insurance policy to 93 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 1: assure that you get all the nutrients. And the reason 94 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: you have, as you say, two out of ten people 95 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: because of their experiences with all I took vitamin in 96 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: it and I still I still got a heart attack. 97 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: All Right, took vitamin C and I still got a cold. Right, 98 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: took zinc and I still got acne. Because it's not 99 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 1: a question of these individual nutrients. It's a question of 100 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: the entire mighty ninety essential system. I've got emails that 101 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: have been coming in, but I do want Carol to 102 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: know that, Carol, I'm going to get Ben this long 103 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: email you sent me because it's very complicated and I 104 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: want him to address it and look it over. So 105 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: for you, Carol, trust me, we'll get We'll get it 106 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: into Ben's hands and he can get it into dark 107 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: Walleck's hands if need be, and we'll take care of that. Now. 108 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: I do have an email in from Betty who says, 109 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: I've got problems with my adrenal glands. What do I do? 110 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: Join join the crowd. Every we all have problems with 111 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: what they do. Stress glands. They're the glands that help 112 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: our body handle stress. And what's more, and this is 113 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: so important, George, not only our our adrenal glands are 114 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: stress glands, that there are our youth and fertility glands 115 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: as well, which means that the more resources the adrenal 116 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: glands are spending helping us handle stress. And I'm not 117 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: just talking about psychological stress and emotional stress. I'm talking 118 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,799 Speaker 1: about the stress of calories. I'm talking about the stress 119 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: of sugar. I'm talking about the stress of prescription drugs 120 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: and alcohol and cigarettes. The more the adrenal glands are 121 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: helping our body handle stress, the less they're making youth 122 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: and fertility hormones. The less we're able, the more resources 123 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 1: we're spending trying to deal with stress, the older we're 124 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: going to get, the more infertile we're going to get, 125 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: and the sicker we're going to get. Handling adrenal distress 126 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: or adrenal stress is the key to longevity and the 127 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: key to fertility, and the key to a long and 128 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: healthy life. I think so too. Ben will take calls 129 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: when we come back in just a moment. Tom's also 130 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: taking texts and tweets. Many questions just just come rolling 131 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: in for you, pharmacists, been from Critical Health News dot 132 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: com and again the number to call, not to get 133 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: on the show here, but to talk to a human 134 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: being about giving you some information one five five to radio. 135 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: We cherish that number. You have helped so many people 136 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: in your career. Been It's I can't tell you what 137 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: an honor and a pleasure it is that I get 138 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: to do. It is the greatest gift that you can 139 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: imagine every time I help somebody, my oxytoasin goes up, 140 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: my dopamine goes up, all my anti aging hormone goes on. 141 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: Hormones go up. And that's the beautiful thing about giving. 142 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: When we give, we get Were you always a giver? 143 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: Even when you were a kid. I learned at a 144 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: young age that I would benefit by by giving things 145 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: to people. You know, it says in the Bible to 146 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: love others as you love yourself. And what that means 147 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: to me is that when we give love to other people, 148 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: the love comes through us. We're the ones who get 149 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: the benefit by loving others. And conversely, when we don't 150 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: love others, when we're angry or when we're hateful, or 151 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: we're not forgiving, it's our blood pressure that goes up, 152 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: it's our cortisol that goes up, it's our longevity that's affected. 153 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: So to be giving and loving to me is the it. 154 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: It helps the giver and the lover more than it 155 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: helps the person who's receiving. That's why it's better to 156 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: give than it is to receive. Okay, here's one from 157 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: Bob and Tucson which I was very reluctant to give you. 158 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: It says please ask pharmacist ben, I have fungus in 159 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: my tone, hails, I'm not laughing, not laughing at him, No, 160 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: it's very common. Fungus in the tonenails represents the body's 161 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: excretion of that fungus, which is why commercials for antifungal 162 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: creams and laser therapy for killing fungus are so silly. Well, 163 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: I keep thinking those little lamasol creatures jumping up, and 164 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: the antifungal drugs that you get from the physician's office 165 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: are among the most toxic of all the medications that 166 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: you can get a fungus. When fungus accumulates, when used 167 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: accumulates in the body, which is secondary follows what's called 168 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: messed up gut bacteria or dis biosis. Bacteria in the 169 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: gut live in balance with fungus, and when we kill 170 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: off those bacteria by eating too much sugar or by 171 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 1: using antibiotics, or by drinking antibiotic laden water, the fungus 172 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: overgrow and tonail fungus represents the body's attempt to eliminate 173 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: the fungus. This is how beautiful the body is. It 174 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 1: uses skin and it uses the nail. It uses as 175 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: excretory routes. It's a way that the body is eliminating 176 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: the fungus. So to put medicine on the tonails isn't 177 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: going to help the fungus because the fungus is inside 178 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: the body. The best way to deal with fungal infections, 179 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: which are very common, is to make sure you focus 180 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: on digestive health. Messed up gut bacteria technically called disbiosis, 181 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: that simply means messed up gut bacteria is the key 182 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 1: to all health challenges. All health and all disease begins 183 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: in the gut, and excess fungus in the system represents 184 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: somehow the bacteria in the gut being killed off, most 185 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: most especially by antibiotics, although poor dietary strategies a player 186 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: role as well. We had a caller called last night 187 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: to talk to Judge Jim Gray as we were talking 188 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: about relaxing drug laws, and she was able to get 189 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: herself off of pain killers. It took a while, but 190 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: she got herself off pain killers. Those are addictive, aren't they? 191 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, that is a horrible, horrible scourge. And 192 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: by the way, you were talking about relaxing drug laws, 193 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: there's a substance called CB d Have you heard of this? 194 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: I have not. CBD is and is a fraction of 195 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: the marijuana plan called technically it's called Cannaba dial that's 196 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: got some incredible benefits for a pain relief. I mean 197 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: absolutely mind blowing for pain relief. It's not marijuana doesn't 198 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: get you high or it doesn't get you intoxicated in 199 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: any way, but us of those benefits.
