Pharmacist Ben Fuchs discussed natural health remedies and the vitamins, nutrients, and minerals that our bodies need to maintain good health. The supplement berberine, a phytonutrient found in certain plants, helps maintain healthy blood sugar and is also good for the eyes, the immune system, and the nervous system, he reported. To fend off heavy metal toxicities (such as might be discovered through hair testing), he recommended chelation therapy, as well as charcoal and/or clay.

For combating glycation, a bodily process associated with diabetes and other health problems, he suggested niacin and selenium, as well as Vitamin B1 (thiamine)-- which also has anti-aging properties and is beneficial for dealing with peripheral neuropathy. Epsom salts, when used in a bath, can have a relaxing effect and serve to detoxify the body, he noted, adding that the salts contain magnesium. For a caller with lung issues, he advised practicing breathing techniques (like Wim Hof) and taking probiotics, Vitamins C & E, and the supplement NAC.
