How Conventional Medicine Is Ruining Our Kids | Dr. Larry Palevsky

We’re watching an entire generation of children get sicker, and the medical system still won’t admit it’s out of answers. 

Parents see it. Practitioners see it. And the gap between real-world patterns and the official explanations around childhood illness keeps widening.

In this episode, Dr. Larry Palevsky breaks down the observations that pushed him to question the pediatric model from within. Standard protocols weren’t helping. Some interventions were making symptoms worse. And the infection-based framework he was trained to follow simply didn’t explain the chronic inflammation, neurodevelopmental issues, or immune dysregulation showing up in real kids.

Looking for clarity, he stepped outside the conventional lane—into nutrition, Chinese medicine, chiropractic, reiki, herbology, and other holistic approaches that offered a fuller picture of children’s health. That search opened deeper questions about vaccine ingredients, aluminum adjuvants, immune overload, environmental toxicity, and whether our definition of “infection” actually matches what’s happening inside children’s bodies.

This conversation is for anyone who already knows the system is breaking kids—and wants the language, context, and coherence to understand why, and what truly supports long-term health.
