The Natural Way to Boost Testosterone
Are you feeling tired, depressed, and lacking libido? You might be experiencing low testosterone levels. Low testosterone can affect both men and women. But before you rush to the doctor for synthetic testosterone replacement therapy, listen to Dr. Stephen and Janet Lewis talk about the natural way to boost testosterone.
Products Mentioned in Today's Show:
Nitric Oxide Revive represents an extended-release nitric oxide precursor. Scientists now refer to nitric oxide (NO) as the “foundation” of cardiovascular health. This tiny molecule is a vasodilator responsible for controlling blood flow to the entire body, which may help support healthy blood flow pressure and promote the health of the endothelium—the inside of blood vessels. With age comes diminished NO levels; that’s why since 1998, when three scientists won the Nobel Prize for their discovery of NO, researchers have been working to harness its heart-healthy activity. Today, with the application of extended-release technology, that activity has been realized with Nitric Oxide Revive.
Testo Essentials Max features two safe, clinically-tested, standardized, and patented ingredients designed to support vitality and general physical and mental well-being in men and women. Numerous studies have demonstrated that PrimaVie® shilajit and LJ100® Eurycoma longifolia support healthy androgen biosynthesis, which includes modulating the influence of sex hormone-binding globulin.†

SHOW NOTES:
Speaker 0 (00:00:01) - Welcome to the Green Wisdom Health Podcast with Dr. Steven and Janet Lewis, where you will learn about natural solutions to common ailments. And now here are your hosts, Dr. Steven and Janet Lewis.
Janet Lewis (00:00:18) - Hello and welcome to this week's edition of the Green Wisdom Health Show. I'm Janet Lewis.
Dr. Stephen Lewis (00:00:24) - And I'm Dr. Lewis.
Janet Lewis (00:00:25) - And we are excited that you are here today listening to our testosterone podcast, because who doesn't need testosterone? Apparently a lot of people are lacking testosterone, so that's why Dr. Lewis wrote a book about it. But today, we are going to educate men and women about how to balance it naturally. I know people are used to getting patches and things, but we have a little bit different approach, don't we, Dr. Lewis?
Dr. Stephen Lewis (00:00:54) - Yeah. I've never thought that, uh, disease was a lack of a drug. And, you know, everybody's got an opinion, but, uh, success leaves clues, but so does failure.
Janet Lewis (00:01:07) - Well, um, you know, I think there's maybe some hormonal issues that go on that people don't even realize or could be a testosterone issue, and they're different for men and women. Uh, you know, usually you hear men saying, I need testosterone used to them getting pellets, or,
Dr. Stephen Lewis (00:01:25) - That started with Tim Allen going two the two men.
Janet Lewis (00:01:29) - Yeah. But why, why is that so rampant nowadays that the testosterone is low? I, I, you know, maybe that's a better place to start.
Dr. Stephen Lewis (00:01:39) - You know, there, there are a lot of things, and, and it, it's multifaceted. Well, our food is terrible. They're genetically modified. And I know there's some people say that doesn't matter. Yes, it does. We've been to Europe and we've been to China. It does make a difference. The other thing is we have so many, uh, different things in our environment, 85,000 to a hundred thousand different chemicals that act like estrogen. And that's why, and you've heard me say it many times before, little girls develop breast and menstrual cycle years before they're supposed to. Little boys are getting more and more feminine. And if you hadn't noticed that, you ain't paying attention. And that's why there's, uh, an epidemic of, uh, low testosterone, only more low T clinics popping up and, you know, they're getting, uh,

And we are here to bring you an exciting show about pain. Doesn't everybody like pain? Actually, we're going to bring you to show about natural solutions to remedy pain. Now that sounds better, doesn't it? Anyway, we are very excited and blessed to be able to bring you some new options to our office. We have all been working diligently on per the past few months. I know you've not heard a podcast from us for a while. So we are back, we have been busy, doctor Lewis, the most busy, but it takes all of us to put it together. Doctor Lewis has been in the middle of creating a bunch of books and one of them is on pain. So doctor Lewis, would you like to tell us a little bit about what you've been doing? Well, I used to recommend so many different books and in January says Stephen quit recommending those Rachel book. It's like, I don't want to write my book. So anyway, we had to develop my answer to that was yes, ma'am. Whatever you want, ma'am. But we want you to know it's really an honor and responsibility for when you come to us for a so called natural solution to common ailments. And I get in a lot of controversy by saying, well, your body's made by God, and it knows what to do. It just needs the tools to work with. So we have developed a what I would call a very ingenious program, but then that would sound like I'm bragging on myself and really and truly Janet's name should be on this book more than me. But we're going to talk a lot about what you should do. And you know, as a chiropractor, I started out with musculoskeletal conditions with all my patients and they would say, and I'd say, well, you need this supplement you need that supplement. So your body can, you know, it's going to decrease the inflammatory cytokines, et cetera, et cetera, and some of them say, but I like tacos, and it's like, yeah, well, you need to do something different or people say, well, I have fibromyalgia, it's like, well, I can teach you to eat differently. So this is we have programs now that we're getting some phenomenal success with because it teaches you how to eat and it's not a book about what not to eat. It's about what a and we make it simple where it's you have the grocery list. It's easy to prepare. And they're actually super delicious. You feel healthy after you eat these things. So we've got a lot to say, sorry, I only had 30 minutes to say it. I was going to say, what is food have to do with pain? Everything. Just asking. Well, if you're in chronic pain and you've tried all these things, including chiropractic care,

Welcome to the green wisdom health podcast, with doctor Steven and Janet Lewis, where you will learn about natural solutions to common ailments. And now, here are your hosts doctor Steven and Janet Lewis. Hello and welcome to this week's show. We are very excited for our next presentation of what we've been up to, doctor Lewis. You want to tell them what we've been up to? Yeah, I hear from quite a few of my patients that we're going dark are going silent because we haven't been putting out podcasts. Well, we're going to introduce you to our hormone balancing and weight loss book. And I'd like to say thank you for your patience. Thank you for your loyalty. Thank you for your trust because we've been really, really busy making reformulations to some things so that they can work better or where one nude reformulation could take the place of two products. So the patients that have experienced this already are very, very happy and excited and I think you'll find this weight loss book much different than any other dot book on the market because our approach is different. And if you're wondering where you can find this, but this is the first I believe for now that he's working on. We only have the one out. Well, you know, it takes a lot of effort for Janet to keep me off the rabbit trails and keep me focused. So he has to keep writing different books till he comes up with what he likes. So my first one is about thyroid and hormones and weight loss and all of those kind of things nutrient based eating, which is probably something you've not heard of before. If you like looking at the book, there's many recipes in the back. It is available right now on our page of our website at green wisdom health dot com toward the bottom. There's an online ebook. Some people prefer not to read. We hear that too. So doctor Lewis has completed the audio version of it, which we are delighted to share with you today. So doctor Lewis, anything else you'd like to add in before we let him hear the audio version. Yeah, buckle up your seat belt and notice where the notches are because if you follow this book, you're going to have to type up if you're not just because if you will follow the program, you will lose weight and then you'll start feeling more energetic and be the best person that you can possibly be. Not only for yourself, but for your family. So without further ado, here is doctor Lewis. This hormone weight loss book. Hello, everyone. My name is doctor Steven Lewis. I'm a chiropractor, and today we're going to be reviewing one of my favorite topics and functional medicine. Hormone imbalances and nutrient deficiencies as they relate to weight loss. I've worked with hundreds of patients over the years in their struggles to lose weight to boost energy to improve how they feel in their own bodies and who doesn't need that. And unfortunately, many times these patients suffered from severe hormone...

And now, here are your hosts doctor Stephen and Janet Lewis. Hello and welcome to this week's edition of the green wisdom health show. I'm Janet Lewis. And I'm doctor Lewis. And we thought we would come to you today with a couple of exciting things. One is we have some false savings coming up for you, so stay tuned for this. But the name of this show is called are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? We decided to do a podcast doctor Lewis has been very busy writing some books for you guys on how to eat correctly nutrient based eating. He's also doing some webinar. So I've had him very busy, so I apologize for the lack of podcasts coming on. But we cause people are getting another round of being sick again and for some people it's the third or fourth time. We thought we should come on the air and talk to you a little bit about what may be causing that, some things you could take to help you beside the common things like vitamin D and that sort of thing. And why it's so important that we see about going into fall with health. So doctor Lewis would you like to talk to the audience? I think they might have missed you. Yeah, well, first of all, I'd like to say thank you, Melinda from Nederland, Texas from being so compliant and getting such great results. It's funny, fact of life, but secret that you get out of it, what you put into it. So sweet little lady done in southeast Texas. And thank you, Eric, for sending her and dozens of others. Here's the deal. I would love for y'all to do me a favor and write me Doc at green wisdom health dot com. Is that right? It is because he's actually had a little problem with Facebook and his shooting straight page. So he's not getting any direct messages on that now. He's still checking it, but Facebook has their own rules and they decided to make one. So we still have the page. He just doesn't see the post right away, so I don't think he's ignoring you. He will be on there to answer. Yeah, Doc, green wisdom, health dot com. Email me and I'd like to know your opinion. Do you like the podcast? Should we do more should we do less? Because I have been busy. And we can do more if we need to, but we want to know what it takes to reach you.

Welcome to the green wisdom health podcast, with Doctor Stephen and Janet Lewis, where you will learn about natural solutions to common ailments. And now, here are your hosts doctor Stephen and Janet Lewis. Hello and welcome to the green wisdom health show. I'm Janet Lewis. And I'm doctor Lewis. And today we are going to discuss heavy metal toxicity. The name of this show is called symptoms of heavy metal toxicity. Doctor Lewis, can you tell us why you felt the need to discuss heavy metals? He's thinking about why he's discussing heavy metals. It goes back to the 70s in the music, but no, not really. Well, you know, I've talked about being toxic off and on for many, many years, even before we got into this. And I noticed that as I tried to fix people's joint pain, nerve pain, musculoskeletal pain, that if I would put people on something that could displace toxins, heavy metals and others, that their pain would get much, much better. Much more quickly, they could achieve or we could achieve the goals with fewer adjustments and less time. So I think we should always be taking up new trends to help our bodies detox, not just metals, but other things. And the side effect of being cleaner is deep sleep. You know, most of us don't get the deep restorative sleep, which not having good sleep actually helps induce leaky gut, which we've talked about. And that can lead to insulin resistance. So when we talk insulin resistance, we're talking about pre diabetic or diabetic. And it can lack of the sleep can lead to actually autoimmune disorders. We're seeing more and more autoimmune disorders and people say, well, what's chiropractor doing? Talking about, oh, no immune disorders. Well, guess what? That has a lot to do with osteoarthritis, which I've already gotten most of that podcast written for the future about how osteoarthritis can be helped with nutrients as well as the chiropractic adjustments. But to get deep restorative sleep puts you in a better position to detox and heavy metal is a big part of that. You know, I think a lot of people out there don't really realize they're even exposed to heavy metals and they're probably thinking, well, I'm not around any of that. So, I'm not really sure how it pertains to me, but there's good metals like zinc and copper and iron that are beneficial for your health, but there's also some very toxic ones like cadmium, arsenic, chromium, lead mercury, you know, and people are like. Yeah, and where do you get those bad ones from? Is everyone exposed to one or more of those? Absolutely. And people say, I'm not exposed to that. It's like, yeah, you are, you just don't know it. I mean, if you walked into a newly sprayed build and has had pesticides in it, or even new building materials or the outgassing of carpets and those are not necessarily metals, but they can be seen in styrene and Styrofoam cups. There're so many toxins in the world. If you're not exposed to it, one of the polar bears have thyroid problems in osteoporosis. We don't spray anything up there. And we'll probably go over a list today. And I've always said, please don't try to diagnose yourself at all, but if you don't diagnose yourself off this list because of these lists, we may say, well, this is hypothyroidism. Well, it could also be leaky good. It can be chronic fatigue, syndrome. And you know, I had a kid one-time, young man who was not very developed, and you could tell he had some problems. And he brought me a book and says, here, what do you think about it?

And now, here are your hosts doctor Stephen and Janet Lewis. Hello and welcome to this week's edition of the green wisdom health show. I'm Janet Lewis. And I'm doctor Lewis. And today we are going to discuss a topic you guys keep asking us about that we keep trying to dance around. So we're going to keep dancing, but we're going to give you our best shot at explaining what we do and what's going on. Now that we have your curiosity, you're wondering what it is. I know. But we can't tell you. We have to just kind of talk in code. The name of the show is called treating long, I'm sorry. It's not treating. We're supporting long haul syndrome. So we do not treat that. We just give you things that might help you get over long term chronic sickness. And you'll just have to fill in the blank on what that is. But, you know, many things can help with that sort of thing. And we also have a symptom list of you figuring out if you have these long haul symptoms or the syndrome. So chronic immune system depletion. There you go. So we're going to tell you the things that we do, the things we recommend because we're getting another round of people getting sick and we want to make sure you stay healthy, especially going into this fall, you know, we've got Saharan dust attacking us now and people have a bunch of allergies. And then you have this virus stuff that just seems to be on the loose. So doctor Lewis, I think you should go ahead and explain what we're doing. You know, before we started this, we asked God to help organize my mind. You know if you've listened to me before organization in my mind is pretty much nonexistent and I'm way off the charts today. I've got too much to say and not enough time to get there. So what we're talking about is helping your body boost immune system. I'm a chiropractor, so I always approach you from a musculoskeletal sense. But if you support musculoskeletal, you're supporting all the cells, which are supporting your immune system. So we'll get into that. I wanted to talk about mushrooms and Janet kind of changed that. I'm going to talk about mushrooms anyway. Maybe he's wanting to smoke mushrooms. I'm not sure which one, but we're using them for immune system. Yeah, and I do not treat cancer, God knows you need a hematologist that understands natural stuff too, but when Janet's first said, we talk about mushrooms and she changed her mind. She never changes her mind about me, but everything else may be. There's a lot of cancer books. And again, I don't treat cancer, of course, but mushroom extracts are used sometimes it's mataki, sometimes shiitake, a turkey tail lines made. And the beta glucans that you can get from that. And this is in some of the books that talk about how some people natural doctors treat cancer. And that's certainly not the only thing you should be doing if you have cancer, but other things that are anti proliferative, which means they kind of help keep the cancer and if it works for cancer, it's going to work for immune system. And you people that have chronic fatigue, some of the anti prolific agents are selenium, fish oil, garlic, cat's claw, mataki, diffraction vitamin a, vitamin K, of course, in bovine cartilage, which actually we've been proved our collagen has just come in again. Thank you. But that all might assist the cancer patient in this manner.

And now, here are your hosts doctor Stephen and Janet Lewis. Hello and welcome to this week's edition of the green wisdom health show. I am Janet Lewis. And I'm doctor Lewis. And we have our very special speaker back with us today. Casey, who works with one of our manufacturers to bring you the wonderful products that we currently have. Including the new one that we just started carrying called ageless cell revive. So the name of this show, and he's going to tell us why it works. It's called ageless mind. And increased energy. And those of you that are having the bad side effects of the long-term COVID symptoms, you probably want to listen up to this because this is going to have a lot of information pertaining to that in ways that you can get your energy back, your mind back, get rid of a lot of your fatigue. So doctor Lewis, what would you like to tell us before we add Casey to it? Well, since it's so good for the brain, I would like to ask you, if you can remember to take it, do you really need it? Thanks. Go ahead, guys. Take and run with it. Yeah, thank you for having me again. It's always, it's always a pleasure to be back out in east Texas. Being that you're from. Yeah, exactly. We want to talk about where I'm from. But over Dallas way. But yeah, this is a we gave him his green card to get him into Texas. I'm doctor Lewis approved, hopefully. Yep. But yeah, this is a really exciting new product. There's been a lot of ageless cell revive that is. There's a lot of chatter right now. I would say over the last couple of years around this idea of membrane lipid replacement therapy. And what I mean by that. So what ageless cell revive is is it's a sunflower, lecithin derived phospholipid complex. And why that is so important is that phospholipids are an extremely critical component to all biological membranes. In the body, from the membrane that lines your digestive tract, the membrane that lines your bronchial passages, the membranes that make up the membranes that protect and house your both your cells and then also membrane intermembrane that houses your mitochondria. So and that goes along with the podcast we did earlier about diabetes and metabolic syndrome or syndrome X. The main cause of stroke, for example, is syndrome X, which is the same thing as metabolic syndrome leading to diabetes or type two diabetes. And as chiropractor I was always interested in the demyelination, things that DeMille are like infections, trauma, which is what I took care of as a chiropractor. Inflammation, which specifically diabetes, but any kind of inflammation, lack of thyroid function that you people with low thyroid, it goes further than just checking your thyroid. Nutritional deficiencies and that's where Casey just shines like a brand new penny. Lack of vitamin B and allergies such as gluten. So we're happy to have him here because he kind of has the intelligence and the knowledge to get technical. So I'm just like throw it in like God sorted out. Yeah, so all those things you just mentioned is that like the simpler version of what Casey's saying about the mitochondrial function. Yeah, because Janet told me I get two technical and one case it gets technical. She didn't say anything to him. She just smiled and said, hey, Casey. Well, I invite him to the show because he tells me all of this when we talk and I'm like,

The Secret Enemy of Weight Loss
One of the most common issues we see in people today is difficulty maintaining a healthy weight. Weight loss is a hot topic and a booming industry, but so many products just don't work. Unfortunately, there is no magic fix for this, but there is one often overlooked aspect of weight management, and that is insulin. Insulin is an extremely important hormone responsible for regulating several metabolic processes and ensuring cells get the energy they need. Due to this, insulin has a strong influence on weight management. When the body begins to respond less to insulin, it could indicate that you are developing insulin resistance, which can contribute to a variety of health issues. In this week's episode, The Secret Enemy of Weight Loss, we'll discuss insulin's role in metabolism and weight management, as well as some positive lifestyle changes you could make.

And now, here are your hosts doctor Stephen and Janet Lewis. Hello and welcome to this week's edition of the green wisdom health show. I'm Janet Lewis. And I'm doctor Lewis. And we are here to give you some inspiring helpful healthful hope. So in a world full of a lot of chaos, hopefully we're bringing you a lot of joy and information and news you can use. So we today are going to talk a little bit about the secret enemy of weight loss because it's summertime and who's not trying to get into that bikini for the beach. But having a little bit of white problems or a lot of weight problems and we're going to talk about what that secret and me is, doctor Lewis has got him captured over here behind the door and he's going to let him loose a little bit and tell us what the enemy has been. He's good at corralling things. So also, we want to mention our collagen people have been asking a lot about when is collagen coming back in. We do not know. The ingredient in there that's a registered trademark called mobily, which is one of the several ingredients in that product that make it work wonderfully and that is the reason why it is so missed, we can not get from the manufacturer because it's trapped in Spain. It is rooster comb. I guess they have special roosters there. I don't know, but they're organic. They're organic rooster combs. Hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid can heal in big ways. So I won't go into too many stories there, but it's not here. So that's the bottom line. We don't know what it's coming. People ask if we have a replacement. Not yet. We're waiting for the person that makes that product for us to tell us what they're going to do. They have very high standards. And they don't want to take something out that they may get in. I don't know. If we do it, you're going to know it and we're going to tell you, hey, it didn't come in with this. I don't know what we're going to do. So for the time being that's out and people say, well, what brand should I take? We don't know. I know that they have designs for help, has a pretty good one. I just haven't gotten any kind of feedback from anybody that's just had miraculous results with collagen other than the powdered one we carry. So sorry about that. You know how it is nowadays, so hopefully that's the only product that's doesn't come in for a while, but you know, there could be others. So anyway, doctor Lewis picked this subject today because he is passionate about helping people regain their health and would you like to let the enemy out of the closet you're keeping him in and tell us who the secret enemy of weight loss is. Well, I've had so many people talk bad about me because I'm so blunt and it's like, well you made a sugar coat it and the answer to that is most people would rather have it sugar coated. The active, the real enemy is insulin and I will get into that. I promise you in big ways.

Hello, welcome to the Hashimoto's Connection. On today's show, I have the pleasure of interviewing doctor Stephen Lewis of Green Wisdom Health. Doctor Lewis has a long history of helping people achieve their optimal health by using extensive but affordable lab work. He stays current on the latest research, pertaining to nutritional supplements and optimal health, and he has a unique perspective on all alternative and complementary nutrition from studying with numerous national leading alternative health experts. Doctor Lewis was a joy to interview and has a refreshing straight to the point type of personality that I'm sure you will enjoy as much as I did. Listen in to hear his approach to wellness and how supplements play a role in long-term health. I'm sandy Robinson. I'm a wife, mother, health coach, personal trainer, personal fitness chef, and entrepreneur. Through my own personal challenges with being diagnosed with Hashimoto's, I discovered the dire need for a better support system. Join me as I bridge the information and communication gap between patients, caregivers, family members, Friends, and coworkers, through helpful tips, inspiring stories and motivating interviews. I call this the Hashimoto's connection. How did you get involved in chiropractic care and in functional medicine? You know, I was asked that question on a very large podcast one time and I started crying because I saw my daddy died when I was 15 years old. Maybe from ulcerative colitis, but maybe from the drugs they gave him for that. And I knew right then at 15, I was smarter than that. I developed ulcerative colitis whether it was physical or psychological, whatever. And I went to 5 different MDs. I had 5 different diagnoses and 5 different treatments, not one of them that worked. And I love her MDH. Don't misunderstand me. They did a lot of really good things, but so I pursued chiropractic and we look at things in a musculoskeletal arena and I figured that what I thought through some good nutrients, notice I said good. That even if it's four musculoskeletal things, other things got better. Well, if it's turmeric, will it help their brain to help their cognitive factors that help their eyesight and help decrease inflammation? I did it people do things for two reasons. You make a decision to do something because you're moving away from pain. Are you making a decision to do something because you're moving toward pleasure?

Difficulty losing weight is one of the most common issues plaguing the U.S. There are many things that influence weight such as diet, activity level, hormones, genetics, food sensitivities, environment, and much more.

How Does Gluten Affect the Thyroid?
Gluten sensitivities are becoming more common, but most people don't know if they have a sensitivity. Continuing to eat foods you are sensitive to can lead to a wide variety of problems, and it can even contribute to some serious thyroid conditions. When you have a gluten sensitivity, the body identifies the gluten particles as foreign bodies that need to be attacked. Unfortunately, the protein portion of gluten - called gliadin - looks similar to thyroid molecules, so the body may mistakenly attack parts of the thyroid, potentially leading to thyroid issues. In this week's episode, we'll go over how gluten affects the thyroid, and why it's important to avoid it.

Happy Liver Makes a Happy Life
The average American encounters so many different environental toxins each day. Some experts estimate that we are exposed to hundreds of different chemicals every day, and some experts believe it could be as high as tens of thousands of differenct chemicals. They can be found in our air, food, water, cosmetics, soaps, cleaners, clothes, etc., and can cause a myriad of health issues over time. Our liver has many functions in the body, but one of its most important functions is the filtering of toxins. The liver works constantly along with other organs like the kidneys to rid our body of the different toxins we consume. However, if the liver is not functioning properly, its ability to filter things can be inhibited, this is why it's so important to support the liver. In this week's show we'll discuss some things you can do to help support the liver, and why a happy liver makes a happy life.

Is Gluten the Hidden Cause?
With chronic conditions affecting almost half of the U.S. population, health experts have started to consider other potential causes of these conditions. Exposure to environmental toxins, stress, trauma, and genetic predispositions can all play a role in the development of certain chronic health conditions, but food sensitivities could also have a big influence.

Are Vitamins Just Expensive Urine?
As more people make taking nutritional supplements part of their daily routine, some people still wonder if it's worth the time and money. One of the common misconceptions about supplements is that you absorb very little and excrete most of it, but this isn't always the case. Some vitamins are made with cheaper ingredients that are difficult for the body to absorb, like using cyanocobalamin instead of methylcobalamin for B12. The cyanocobalamin is much cheaper, but much more difficult to absorb. This is why it's important to take multivitamins and other supplements that are made with high-quality ingredients. In this week's show we'll discuss in more detail how not all supplements are equally effective, and explain why vitamins are not just expensive urine.

You Can’t Outrun Your Fork
The average American eats a large amount of processed foods that are typically full of chemicals, grains, simple carbohydrates, and unhealthy fats. These foods are usually low in essential vitamins and minerals, and can contribute to inflammation, and one of the biggest offenders in the American diet today is gluten. With so many people unaware that they have a gluten sensitivity, there are many people eating gluten every day that are actually sensitive to it. Eating foods you have a sensitivity to can cause an inflammatory response and can damage the lining of your gut, as well as affect other organs. This chronic inflammation can wreak havoc throughout your body, and can cause symptoms that may be misdiagnosed as a medical condition in some cases.

Depression and other emotional disorders have been on the rise over the last few weeks, mostly due to feelings of isolation during these lockdowns.

Dr. Lewis recently had the opportunity again to be a guest on The Survival Podcast with Jack Spirko.

They discussed the importance of nutrition tailored to each person's different needs, the keto diet, and what different supplements can do. Dr. Lewis also talked about what made him interested in natural health, and how his life has been shaped by the drive to learn more and be healthier.
Nutrition and Supplements
The food grown today is not as high in vitamins and minerals as it was twenty years ago. Supplements cannot offset a poor diet, but they are a great way to get in nutrients that are difficult to get enough of through diet alone. There is nothing that can completely offset the effects of a poor diet, which is why we recommend adopting a Keto or Paleo diet. However, you can still have vitamin and mineral deficiencies while following a clean diet. You may also have poor detoxific…
