Hi Jimi,

Whether you're trying to heal from chronic illness, mold, or acute infection....

You cannot properly heal when your nervous system is out of whack.

Anecdotal evidence and published scientific studies show that experiencing prolonged stress leads to increased risk of infection, gut issues, and so much more!

How do mold toxicity and chronic illness effect your nervous system? And what can you do about it?

I invite you to join me and my friend Dr. Eva Detko at The Mind, Body & Vagus Nerve Connection Summit, where I will be sharing how mold damages your nervous system and what you can do about it!

In this summit, we will also cover:

  • Functions of the vagus nerve
  • The vagus nerve's role in immunity
  • Connection between healthy vagus function and healthy gut and biome
  • Links between infections, mitochondria and vagus function
  • Boosting function of the vagus nerve
  • And so much more!
I'll see you there!

XO,
Bridgit

LEMON BAKED MAHI MAHI
5/28/2020 | BY BETH CHEN


This post contains affiliate links. Click here to see what that means!





Paleo-Lemon-Baked-Mahi-Mahi-60sm.jpg



This 30-minute Paleo Lemon Baked Mahi Mahi recipe is baked with fresh herbs, olive oil and lemon which creates a yummy broth that’s perfect for drizzling over cauliflower rice. It only takes 6 ingredients to transform mahi mahi into a delicious and elegant dish.

To get this yummy broth, make sure to pat the fish dry prior to cooking. If you don’t, the extra liquid could water down the broth and alter the taste. The broth should taste like an intense lemony sauce. It’s. So. Good! Definitely worth the time to include this step.

If you’re looking for additional fish recipes, try this Smoked Oyster Tapenade or AIP Salmon Cakes.

Hi Jimi,

More and more people are adopting a plant-based diet.

With the surge of top-performing athletes crediting their successes to plant-based eating, numerous scientific studies showing its profound effect on health and longevity, and plant-based dietary recommendations by major institutions like Kaiser and Health Canada, it's no wonder that it's gaining in popularity.

Some of the most powerful testimony to the power of the plants comes from personal stories of how plants have helped individuals add years to their lives and turn back the tide of disease and illness.

Our friend Jon McMahon's story is no exception...

Following years of suffering from diabetes and obesity, Jon embarked on a quest to discover ways to reverse his disease instead of resigning to a lifetime of managing it with medications.

His quest brought him across the US where he interviewed dozens of the world's top experts in health, nutrition, and diabetes.

Utilizing all he learned, he's since reversed his diabetes and lost 108 pounds.

His story is deeply personal and moving... and a true testament to the power of plants.

Using the research of leading experts, Jon turned his findings into the popular 9-part series, iThrive! Rising from the Depths of Diabetes and Obesity.

This series is a must-see for anyone wanting to share the benefits of plant-based living or for those seeking hope in taking back control of their own health.

To a healthy future,

The VegHealth Team



P.S. During the live airing, Jon McMahon will be joined by a number of top experts in health, wellness, and nutrition. Don't miss this opportunity to join these live discussions — register here.

Dear Jimi,

There’s more to your gut than processing the food that you eat.

You actually have a ‘second brain’ residing in your intestinal wall.

And multiple studies have shown that an imbalance in the good and bad bacteria in your gut can affect your mental health and your happiness.

Don’t believe us?

Remember the last time you’re about to take a big test or present in front of a big crowd or go on a first date…

You probably experienced butterflies, knots in your stomach, or a sense of unease in your gut. You might have even felt like you were about to throw up!

Those sensations are more than just minor feelings.

That’s a sign of your gut directly communicating with your brain and vice versa.

This gut-brain connection is revolutionizing the way medicine looks at mental, autoimmune and physical health disorders and their possible treatments.

Our friends over at Goodness Lover recently released an ebook called 12 Ways to Heal Your Leaky Gut.

All these 12 practical steps are rooted in two crucial strategies:

  • Preserving the diversity and abundance of your body’s bacterial community
  • Preventing lower GI inflammation as much as possible


Apart from the all-natural ways that you can start doing today…

You’ll also find out the possible causes as to why there are more bad bacteria in your gut, which then leads to autoimmune, physical and mental health issues.

>> Find out more in this FREE special report: “12 Ways to Heal Your Leaky Gut”

To your miraculous health!

Always wishing you miracles,

mail


P.S. Do you want more practical solutions to support your gut health, immune system and well-being? Once you get this ebook, you’ll also get a free ticket to an upcoming docuseries called ‘The Gut Solution’. More than 40 world-leading gut health experts will tell you exactly how to regain full health by harnessing the power of your gut.

And here’s a little secret: The series creators told me that Episode 8 will cover even more gut-healing steps that you can start doing as soon as you watch it! Make sure you mark your calendar so you won’t miss that episode.

Cracking the Apple Cider Vinegar Code: 4 Distinct Benefits


Apple cider vinegar had its moment in the sun during the Pinterest craze of the early 2000s. Though it’s experiencing a resurgence now, the public’s undulating focus on the sweet and tart miracle elixir is nothing new.


Since at least 2,500 years ago, when the nomadic Aryan tribe soured their apple wine (read: fermented) and made apple cider vinegar’s ancestor, people have been using apple cider vinegar for all kinds of things – without the peer-reviewed chemical evidence we have today.


Hippocrates himself was a fan of apple cider vinegar as a catch-all for health issues.


Ancient Persians diluted their apple cider vinegar to prevent fatty tissue from forming.


Cleopatra supposedly used it as a toner to clean her skin.


Ancient Japanese samurai drank it for strength in battle, allegedly.


In World Wars, and wars on American soil, ACV was used to disinfect wounds on the battlefield.


And in 1958, when Dr. D.C. Jarvis published his Folk Medicine: A Vermont Doctor’s Guide to Good Health, the homeopathic use of apple cider vinegar as a topical application, internal tonic, weight loss vessel, and so much more.

At its simplest, apple cider vinegar comes from crushed apples that have been distilled, exposed to yeast, and then fermented. And yet, from something so pure comes such a diverse array of benefits. Most of its benefits are believed to come from:


  • Acetic acid - The result of fermentation, acetic acid can curb appetites by reducing starch absorption and slow digestion, which helps you feel fuller, faster.
  • “The Mother” - The cloudy mix of yeast and bacteria used to ferment and then remaining after the fermentation of the apples, which is a probiotic.
  • Vitamin profile like the apple - Plenty of Vitamin B and polyphenols

Here are four of the more solidly backed benefits from using apple cider vinegar…


Non-Toxic Cleaning Product


Because vinegar kills bacteria and pathogens, it’s often used as a cleaning product instead of store-bought chemical products.


A simple mixture of apple cider vinegar diluted with water, with baking soda and essential oils, can be used to clean any surface!


Some evidence even suggests that the smell or taste is repellant to fruit flies – perfect for spraying on surfaces.


Helps to Kill Candida


Candida is a harmful bacteria that lives in lots of places, but you’ve most likely heard of it in terms of your gut and oral microbiome.


Using apple cider vinegar to gargle with can not only help combat bad breath by killing off the bad bacteria responsible, but you can also use it to whiten your teeth! (Rub a little baking soda on your teeth and then swish with apple cider vinegar for about a minute. Spit it out when the foaming’s all done.)


It’s been known to help with sore throats for the same reason – especially when paired with an equal amount of honey, to help coat the throat and kill bacteria.


It can also help by encouraging the stomach to produce more stomach acid because of its probiotic and Candida-killing properties.

For Your Skin and Hair


Remember Cleopatra using apple cider vinegar as a toner? Well, we’re still doing it!


That’s because the acetic acid (and alpha hydroxy acid) in ACV can I am a spammer ban me the skin and draw oil from its pores. Plus, the acidic qualities in ACV can help to topically restore your skin’s pH levels and dissolve dead skin cells.


Just distill it in water first! And the same goes for using it as shampoo. It lowers the pH of the scalp, which allows your hair cuticles to close, resulting in less tangled, shinier, stronger hair.


A glass of water with two tablespoons of ACV in it should be just fine to rub through your hair as shampoo or after shampoo.


In Your Cooking


ACV can do a whole lot more than dress a simple salad.


It can help egg whites solidify when poaching eggs if you add it to the water before the egg.


You can add it to your bone broth at the beginning of its brewing to help pull nutrients from the marrow.


You can add it to your water after a workout to fight lactic acid build up.


It can even make your rice fluffier if you add it to the rice water while boiling!


It’s certainly not a cure-all… but its uses are wide-ranging and often solve problems more safely than their industrial counterpart.


Try incorporating it into parts of your daily routine… and see where it helps!

Hey Jimi,

Yesterday, part one of our mini-episode, How to Rid Your Body of Harmful Parasites and Toxic Heavy Metals went live.

Did you get a chance to watch it? If not, you can still catch it here.

By the way, did you have any problem sleeping last night during the full moon? I've had so many reports from people that for some reason the full moon means they just can't get good sleep! Even if you slept well, you may have some of the other symptoms listed below which are an indication of parasites as they breed during the full moon!

By the way, here’s just one great comment that came in about Part 1:

Thank you, Jonathan, and thank you, Lori. You are (a) Godsend to help us. Keep up the good work. I couldn't explain what I was feeling. But now I know its brain fog and it's a gut issue. ~M. Jussab

In this bonus video, Dr. Kan and I explore how you can protect and cleanse your body and remove toxins that surround you in your everyday life…

And get rid of the stealthy, damaging parasites that an estimated 100 million Americans are unknowingly infected with!

If you struggle with nutrition, bloating, anxiety, brain fog, depression, or anxiety, autoimmune conditions, fatigue, weight, and chronic illness, then learning how to cleanse and restore your body may help you.

Part 2 of this new bonus episode airs TONIGHT and will also be available to watch until this Sunday the 7th of June at 8pm Eastern.

Tune in to this special bonus content to discover more on how drastically parasites and toxins can affect your health.

You’ll see...

  • How the chronic cycle of infection & toxicity contributes to illness
  • How toxins and parasites deeply affect your mental health
  • The correct way to detox and why consistency matters
  • The surprising link between brain fog and heavy metal toxicity
  • How parasitic infection prevents adequate nutrition and the toxic byproducts it creates in the body

Most people are simply blind to just how exposed they are to parasites and toxins in their everyday lives...

That’s why it is so critical that you regularly cleanse your system of these damaging infections and substances, just as your forefathers did before we lost that knowledge to the rush of commerce and industry.

The good news is there are natural remedies that support a healthy, thorough detox and have been used for years to protect and heal our bodies… And we explore these in detail throughout this 3-part bonus episode.

Put fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and mood disorders behind you...

Dear Jimi,

Whether you're trying to heal from a chronic illness or fight an acute infection, you cannot properly heal when your nervous system is out of whack.

Anecdotal evidence and published scientific studies show that experiencing prolonged stress negatively impacts the immunological state… and that prolonged elevated psychological stress is associated with increased risk of infection by respiratory viruses!

Understand how stress impacts your immunity when you join us at The Mind, Body & The Vagus Nerve Connection Summit!

Because of the demands of modern life and the prevalence of unresolved emotional trauma and lack of ability to handle stress effectively, many people can activate their sympathetic (fight-or-flight) response very readily, but they often struggle to switch it off because of low vagal tone.

This limits the ability to activate the rest-digest-detoxify-heal part of the nervous system, and over time, this leads to chronic inflammation and poor gut function, and consequently, can result in pretty much any chronic disease, including autoimmunity and cancer.





The Mind, Body & The Vagus Nerve Connection Summit will discuss:

  • Functions of the vagus nerve
  • The vagus nerve's role in immunity
  • Connection between healthy vagus function and healthy gut and biome
  • Links between infections, mitochondrial and vagus function
  • Boosting function of the vagus nerve
  • And so much more!
By applying these strategies, you can improve your nervous system and immune system function in a matter of weeks, and take your healing to the next level!

Eva Detko, PhD, MSc, mIAHT, has spent the last few months gathering the right experts, information and protocols to help you understand the importance of toning and strengthening your vagus nerve function for optimal health.

Every day she helps her clients overcome complex health issues by helping them restore their autonomic nervous system balance, which is critical to healing from any chronic condition.

She's here to help you by sharing that wisdom starting June 15-21.



To better health,

The GreenMedInfo Team

P.S. When you register for The Mind, Body & Vagus Nerve Connection Summit, you'll also unlock early-access interviews, complimentary guides and helpful eBooks about living your most resilient life!

Dear Jimi,



You’re a member of the GMOs Revealed community… which means you are “awake” to the fact that toxins like glyphosate are polluting our food chain.


What many people don’t realize is that wine… which is supposed to be a very healthy drink in moderation… is one of the TOP offenders when it comes to hidden chemicals and toxins.


Why?


First of all, glyphosate sprayed in fields leaches its way into groundwater and ends up in the grapes. And the really terrible thing?


It even happens in organic vineyards where growers are careful to keep their crops pesticide free!


The runoff from surrounding farms often ends up contaminating organic plants.


What most people aren’t aware of is that there’s a hidden issue with most wine on the market…


And expert Todd White blows the top off the wine industry in his interview with Dr. Patrick Gentempo.


Among other things, Todd shares that there are over 70 toxins, chemicals, and questionable ingredients that are not required to be disclosed on wine labels in the US…


But that’s the tip of the iceberg.


Todd explains it best himself. This was the number one interview in the Wine Revealed series, and it caused an explosion of questions, comments, and concerns from our viewers.


We’re taking it out of the vault for a very short time, because if you drink wine (or know someone who does) we think it’s vital that you have all the information about what’s in your glass:


WATCH TODD WHITE’S EXPLOSIVE WINE REVEALED INTERVIEW HERE


Catch it now, while it’s still available for viewing…


And see why what Todd has to say is a game-changer for everyone who’s watched this!

I hope you read this entire email, but if you’re racing through your day and super busy, take one moment and sign up for The Trauma and Mind Body Super Conference. Trauma is the STEALTH enemy of health and peace of mind. This is, potentially, a life-changing education.

Dear Jim,

There are things we don’t talk about.

And the current events… It feels like trauma is literally everywhere.

And it is not without long-term consequences.

Trauma is the STEALTH enemy of health.

Science has started to study how trauma directs our lives and health.

To be honest, it’s pretty frightening.

Trauma can become more than a lack of peace in our minds, it can literally CAUSE illness …

...and cut our lives short.

How do we change that? How do we navigate something we try not to even THINK about or talk about - something that is unchangeable?

Or is it? GRATEFULLY it IS changeable.

You can absolutely change the trajectory of your health, your life, and your joy, despite all circumstances.

The Trauma and Mind Body Super Conference has over 90 world leading experts who will share the most radically comprehensive roadmap to optimum mental health and wellbeing in existence today.

The event is offered at no cost, and is set to be one of the MOST watched health events of the year.

In a powerful Q&A with host, Niki Gratrix, our own Jason Prall will be sharing about “Plant Medicine for Healing Trauma”, covering:

  • What plant medicines are where they come from,
  • The importance of working with a skilled facilitator, and
  • How to integrate powerful experiences into daily life.
This is a must-attend if you’ve got ANYTHING in your life, up to now, that you’ve struggled with.

Even attending a handful of these talks may give you the starting point you need.

Joe

PS: If life is a thread, we can’t hide from the tough knots that beg to be sorted out. Early life stress, and unresolved emotional trauma, is the #1 most underexposed risk factor for chronic, complex illness today. I hope you will give yourself this gift and tune in for this event.

Here Are Just Some of the 90 Notable Speakers:

Professor Bessel van der Kolk
Dr. Joe Dispenza
Dr. Christiane Northrup
Dr. Joe Mercola
Dr. Tom O’Bryan
Caroline Myss

Dr. Gary Small, MD, writes:

One reason for the lack of success in developing anti-amyloid treatments has been that even though the presence of brain amyloid partly defines Alzheimer’s, it’s not clear whether its accumulation causes the disease or is the result of another underlying abnormality.

Considerable research suggests that other age-related brain abnormalities — such as inflammation and oxidative stress — contribute to the cognitive impairments that are associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

Special: New Aging Research Reveals Key to Long, Healthy Life

Although inflammation is a natural process for repairing tissue damage, as people age their brains undergo heightened inflammation that may damage normal cells.

An older brain also suffers from oxidative stress, which involves the buildup of highly reactive molecules called free radicals, which can cause wear and tear on brain cells.

I became interested in the connection between mind health and brain inflammation several years ago when I led a National Institutes of Health (NIH) study that tested whether an anti-inflammatory drug benefitted age-related memory decline.

Because it’s easier to protect a healthy brain than to repair damage that has already been done, our research team focused on treating people with mild age-related memory issues who were at risk for developing Alzheimer’s dementia in the future.

We found that the anti-inflammatory medicine celecoxib (Celebrex) offered memory benefits compared to an inactive placebo.
But unfortunately, extensive use of anti-inflammatory drugs can lead to many side effects.

In fact, other studies have indicated that anti-inflammatory drugs can actually worsen memory function in patients with the more advanced cognitive decline (dementia).

Dr. Gary Small, M.D., author of The Mind Health Report newsletter, is a professor of psychiatry and aging and director of the UCLA Longevity Center. One of the nation’s top brain health experts, he frequently appears on The Today Show, Good Morning America, and The Dr. Oz Show. He is co-author with wife Gigi Vorgan of many bestsellers, including The Memory Bible and 2 Weeks to a Younger Brain.
