Never Miss Another Sunrise: Circadian Fitness with Zaid K. Dahhaj

Episode 385 | Never Miss Another Sunrise: Circadian Fitness with Zaid K. Dahhaj What if sleep, metabolism, energy, hormone signaling, and even how our bodies respond to food all have something fundamental in common: light and timing? Circadian biology educator Zaid K. Dahhaj joins us to explain why circadian fitness is foundational to human health—and why one of his most important recommendations is simple: never miss another sunrise. We look at what happens when unfiltered sunrise light reaches the eyes and how our light environment helps synchronize clocks throughout the body. We also tackle real life. What if you have to be at work before sunrise? What if your job keeps you awake at night? And what happens in places such as Alaska, where winter may bring only a few hours of daylight while summer brings almost none of the darkness our circadian system expects? Zaid also shares practical ways to strengthen the signals our bodies use to distinguish day from night, including daytime light exposure, darkness at night, sleep and wake timing, and meal timing.

The 5 Biological Laws: Is Your Body Working Against You?

Episode 384 | The 5 Biological Laws: Is Your Body Working Against You? What if symptoms we commonly view as ‘evidence’ that the body is malfunctioning are actually part of purposeful biological adaptations? Melissa Sell, DC, joins us to discuss Germanic New Medicine and the five biological laws—a radically different framework for understanding the relationship between an unexpected event, the psyche, brain, organs, microbes, symptoms, and healing. We look at the difference between the conflict-active and healing phases, why the same experience may affect two people differently, what recurring “tracks” can tell us, and how conflicts may be resolved through practical or perceptual solutions. We also ask where toxins, mold, injury, nutrition, and other external factors fit into this model—and what someone skeptical of Germanic New Medicine can examine for himself.

Smart Meters, Informed Consent, and the Right to Opt Out

Episode 383 | Smart Meters, Informed Consent, and the Right to Opt Out Cecelia “Cece” Doucette, director of Massachusetts for Safe Technology, joins us to make the case for a meaningful right to opt out of wireless “smart” utility meters. Cece explains how smart meters differ from older analog and digital meters, why their constant two-way radiofrequency transmissions raise health and informed-consent concerns, and what advocates are doing to secure an opt-out without punitive fees. A regular guest on CHD.TV, Cece is also a public educator and legislative advocate who has taken the stage at the last two Children’s Health Defense national conferences. Through Massachusetts for Safe Technology, she offers no-cost monthly webinars, practical safer-tech guidance, legislative education, and resources citizens can use in their own communities. I met Cece this spring at the National Health Federation Conference in Dallas. We look at the case for consumer choice, what an opt-out should actually look like, the political obstacles advocates face, and what Washington residents can learn from efforts underway in Massachusetts and elsewhere.

A Family Farm’s Regenerative Turn

Episode 382 | A Family Farm’s Regenerative Turn Utah farmer Stan Jensen joins us to tell the story of transforming his multigenerational family farm after taking the reins in 2019. Inspired by regenerative agriculture, Stan began moving away from pesticides and GMOs and toward practices designed to rebuild soil, keep living roots in the ground, increase diversity, and integrate livestock. Today, Sunnyside Up Pastures raises grass-fed and finished beef, pork, chicken and eggs while working toward becoming a fully regenerative and organic farm. We look at what convinced Stan to change course, what he learned along the way, how livestock and rotational grazing fit into rebuilding soil, and what the results have looked like on the ground—including during drought. We also discuss his work educating and advocating for farmers through Red Acre Center, the regulatory hurdles facing small producers and processors, and his efforts to challenge policies that favor large operations at the expense of local food and farm freedom.

Data Centers - Advocating for Strong Local Rules

Episode 381 | Data Centers - Advocating for Strong Local Rules Sam Romain, chairman of Americans for Energy Dominance, joins us to discuss how residents can respond when attempts to ban a proposed data center are unlikely to succeed. We look at how communities can advocate for temporary moratoria and stringent rulemaking to protect water and power supplies, limit noise, light and pollution, prevent secret deals and blank-check tax breaks, and ensure developers bear the full cost of infrastructure and decommissioning. We also examine Washington’s growing data-center footprint and practical steps citizens can take before a project is approved. The day after we recorded this interview, Stand for Health Freedom launched its new “Grow Food not Surveillance” Data Center Toolkit: https://standforhealthfreedom.com/datacenter/. It includes maps, research, issue briefs, a community action guide, sample emails and public-testimony templates to help citizens understand proposed data centers and advocate effectively before local decisions are finalized. This is a resource worth using early—before major decisions have already been made. samromain.com x.com/SamRomain linkedin.com/in/samromain samromain.substack.com You can support the show by always starting your Amazon shopping at the link on our homepage: https://www.informedchoicewa.org/.

Children’s Health Solutions - Practical Help for Parents

Episode 380 | Children’s Health Solutions— Practical Help for Parents Holistic pediatric RNs Maureen “Maura” McDonnell joins us to talk about the growing burden of chronic illness in children—and, more importantly, what parents can do about it. Maura created the Children’s Health Solutions Series, a no-cost resource bringing experienced holistic pediatricians directly to parents with practical, affordable approaches to childhood anxiety, ADHD, autism, vaccine injury, Lyme disease, common childhood illnesses, immune health and other chronic conditions. The current series features Elizabeth Mumper, MD, on childhood anxiety and autism; Mary Ann Block, DO, on ADHD; Larry Palevsky, MD, on vaccine injury and caring for children through illnesses such as measles and whooping cough; and Michelle Perro, MD, on Lyme disease in children. We look at the common threads these practitioners see beneath children’s symptoms, ways parents can reduce toxic exposures and strengthen resilience, and the practical health knowledge once passed naturally from grandmothers to mothers to daughters. We also discuss building parents’ confidence in caring for common childhood illnesses, recognizing when professional medical care is needed, and knowing where to begin without becoming overwhelmed.

Skin on Fire—Healing Psoriasis from the Inside Out

Episode 379 | Skin on Fire—Healing Psoriasis from the Inside Out We welcome back chiropractor and author Anik St. Martin to discuss her new book, Skin on Fire: Healing Psoriasis Naturally. Drawing from her own decades-long experience with psoriasis, Dr. Anik makes the case that psoriasis is not simply a skin condition but rather an autoimmune problem that requires looking beneath the symptoms. We cover genetics and epigenetics, physical, chemical and emotional stress, immune disruption, inflammation, gut dysbiosis and toxicity, along with her experiences with steroids, methotrexate, biologics and vaccine products. She also walks us through the natural healing approach and 90-day drug-free program she developed using diet, supplementation, detoxification, mindset and nervous-system restoration. Dr. Anik practices chiropractic in Longview and Battle Ground, and she delivered the keynote speech at ICWA’s Health Freedom Day in Olympia earlier this year.

VaxCalc: Research, Decide, Document

Episode 378 | VaxCalc: Research, Decide, Document Chris Downey, creator of VaxCalc, joins us to examine the top mistakes parents make when evaluating vaccines—from treating an entire “well-visit” as one decision to overlooking product differences, cumulative ingredient exposure, risk of the targeted illnesses, and what to monitor after vaccination. Chris walks us through the expanded VaxCalc platform and demonstrates how parents can prepare for the appointment, evaluate each proposed intervention separately, compare vaccine brands and ingredients, document their decisions, and develop a plan before they are asked to consent. We also look at the major new tools added to the platform since we last welcomed Chris in October 2024.

The Sunlight Solution with William F. Supple Jr., PhD

Episode 377 | The Sunlight Solution with William F. Supple Jr., PhD We welcome back Dr. Bill Supple, who makes the case that our modern fear of sunlight has contributed to widespread vitamin D deficiency and chronic disease. His new book, The Sunlight Solution: Reclaiming Vitamin D, Reversing the Chronic Disease Epidemic, and Making America Healthy Again, challenges the modern caution against sun exposure and invites readers to reconsider the role of sunlight as natural, life-giving medicine. We discuss vitamin D as more than a bone-health nutrient--including its role in immune regulation, inflammation, cardiovascular health, brain health, aging, and resilience. We also look at benefits of sunlight beyond vitamin D, including circadian rhythm support, sleep, mood, and other light-driven biological effects. Dr. Supple also walks us through the history of heliotherapy, whether sunscreen is “the new margarine,” the debate regarding sunlight and melanoma, and practical questions about testing serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, supplementation, and seasonal strategies for places like Washington State.

Has Virology Proven its Case?

Episode 376 | Has Virology Proven its Case? Jamie Andrews of The Virology Controls Studies Project joins us to make the case that the foundational proof for viruses has not been demonstrated. We’ll walk through the basics of his research into cell-culture isolation methods, cytopathic effect, transmission electron microscopy, PCR testing, negative controls, and the role properly controlled experiments should play in validating virology’s assertions. Jamie also shares the personal path that led him into this work, including his son’s early vaccine injury and the questions that followed. We look at how his study of infectious disease, laboratory methods, and published protocols developed into a deeper investigation of what virology has not yet proven.
