Naturopathic doctor Randi Shannon shared various ways we can utilize natural remedies and supplements to support our health and address ailments. The condition of the tongue can be an indicator of organ health, she said, recalling her diagnosis of a three-year-old exposed to pesticides by analyzing her tongue, which helped identify kidney and liver distress before hospital tests confirmed it. On acetaminophen, she criticized its use during pregnancy and childhood, linking it to autism risk and explaining it depletes glutathione-- key for detoxification. Shannon encourages natural remedies over pharmaceuticals and aspirin, referencing white willow bark as a safer alternative for pain relief.

She expressed confidence in the potential reversibility of many chronic illnesses, emphasizing the role of the immune system's "killer T cells" and "helper cells" in combating disease. Shannon also raised concerns about environmental toxins, particularly contaminants in water supplies, linking them to increased kidney failure and cancer rates. She warned about the dangers of microplastics and endocrine disruptors, advising listeners to avoid plastic containers and coffee cups lined with plastic. On dietary questions, she recommended caution with peanut products due to mold toxins and endorsed organic almond butter in moderation.

The guest discussed the potential cancer-preventive properties of amygdalin found in apricot seeds and almonds, citing Edgar Cayce's assertion that eating several almonds daily can help prevent cancer. She pointed to the Hunzas' consumption of over 100 apricot seeds daily as part of their diet. Shannon also addressed misconceptions about fruit seeds, noting that despite concerns about arsenic in apple seeds, she regularly consumes them and highlighted the benefits of bitter melon seeds for cellulite prevention.
