[@robbiedejonge8613]

Overall, darn near everyone will find this video eye-opening powerfully helpful information. At the same time some will find at one thing he is saying as "no way that is true" and most of the responses are due to them actually practicing themselves. ie: marijuana usage and spending too much time on the cellphone and in front of the tv 24/7 and vaxxing, etc. GREAT INTERVIEW - THANK YOU!

[@blueeyedsoulman]

I think the internet and screens are a big problem. There is a report out on damage from virtual reality headsets too.

[@c.k.1958]

Thank you!

[@Jen-M.]

He is amazing, just as you are! Enjoyed the discussion.

[@jeffreyweiss7418]

I enjoyed this podcast. Especially the part on CHolesterol and those darned Statins. I don't do well on statins. I don't know why. The cure is almost wore than he disease in that case. I'm in the process of weaning myself OFF of the most current one. The bigget thing with statins is that I start to hurt all over within a week or so of starting to take them.

[@gracie3174]

Look up berberine. ..a great supplement. I refused statins. It lowered my ldl by 40 points! Look it up on KZbin!

[@ravenfinch-alexander1238]

Amen

[@CathyJennings-kw8ds]

Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍😊 SO MUCH

[@jackschitt6235]

When he told his story on PBS he said he didn't like sleeping in the mud" not that he didn't like getting shot at...

[@joannabrites6288]

When trauma gets its due antidepressants will no longer be needed. They don’t work and destroy your sex life. Exercise and meditation is the answer for helping with depression. It helps but I live with it everyday and it has destroyed my life. I don’t function like a normal person.

[@gracie3174]

🙏🙏🙏🙏I’ll pray for you dear.

[@slwleyland]

Also, look at food… ingredients in our so-called foods that we ingest are harming our bodies and minds.

[@tonidantonio9877]

With all the mental,health services available, there should be no mental health.

[@DylanHughesPhotoVideo]

Huge fan of Dr. Axe, but I’ve never heard someone talk in worse incomplete sentences than him. Lol. Sounds RIDICULOUSLY scatterbrained. Like he can’t complete a single thought. Probably should work on that as a doctor who’s espousing advice to people for how to improve their mental/physical health…

[@bluejay3770]

He has adhd
