In this podcast, Dr. George and John go back to basics and talk about that amazing class of supplements: medicinal mushrooms! You may know something about medicinal mushrooms but in this chapter they really go in depth into some of the lesser known facts surrounding the history and benefits of these intelligent herbs. Written accounts of medicinal mushrooms date back as early as 55 A.D. and certainly have stood the test of time. Now we are learning more about the mycelium and how it is being used to support the immunity of the earth as a whole in addition to supporting the immune systems of its inhabitants. Remarkably, the digestive systems of medicinal mushrooms are very similar to that of humans! How is this so and what does it mean? What are the specific constituents of these tonics that give them their powerful qualities? How are the various types of mushrooms different from each other and what effects do they have in the body? Finally, they discuss some characteristics of particular mushrooms: Reishi, Cordyceps, Chaga, Turkey Tail, Lions Mane, and Poria. Get up to date on your mushroom wisdom by listening now! Out of 140,000 species of mushroom-forming fungi, only about 100 are being studied for their health-promoting benefits. Even fewer are thought to be strong immune system potentiators. As a natural defense against pathogenic invasion, fungi have developed their own strong antibiotics, which synchronistically happen to be effective for humans. This is why some mushrooms help our bodies maintain a strong defense against certain bacteria and viruses. Visit www.JingHerbs.com now!

In this episode, Dr. George and John were fortunate to be able to speak with a modern day renaissance man… Pedram Shojai, OMD. Pedram is a man with many titles… He is the founder of Well.Org and the executive producer and writer for the film, “Origins.” In his spare time, he’s also a Taoist priest, a doctor of Oriental medicine, a kung fu world traveler, a fierce global green warrior, an avid backpacker, a devout alchemist, a Qi Gong Master, and an old school Jedi bio-hacker working to preserve our natural world and wake us up to our full potential. Wow… In this interview Pedram talks about his forthcoming book “The Urban Monk” which describes how we can thrive and have peace in our lives right now wherever we are, without the need to run for the hills or meditate in a cave. This is important information for everyone! Pedram shared that a conscious connection to your “higher self” or whatever term you prefer, impacts all your decisions. Everything you experience goes through this filter, so having this realization helps life make more sense. Our materialistic consumerist society feeds the “hungry ghost” mentality and this vicious cycle is never ending. The only way to find peace is to honor this inner, higher connection. Transformational change can happen daily as a result of living out of this conscious awareness. Visit www.JingHerbs.com now!

In their conversation with Daniele, she shared with them how her personal journey of being diagnosed with diabetes in 2001 has led her to a complete health turnaround from obese to athlete, where she now helps others to do the same through the power of choice. Are all calories the same? If two different foods have the same number of calories, how do you know which one to choose? Why are most commercially produced juice products actually detrimental to health? Why is it important to combine exercise and nutrition together for the best health regimen? What effect does a higher ratio of muscle mass have in the body? Daniele addresses all these questions, plus she talked about how to hear our body’s messages and why it’s important to have courage to follow up on those messages when they arise, how our box-based society suffers from being disconnected from nature, which supplements and herbs might be helpful for people who have diabetes, and she shares some great success stories of people who have overcome the odds, returning their bodies to optimal health. Finally Daniele shared some great tips for prevention so if you don’t already have diabetes, you can learn how to avoid it.
