#112 Garrett Pagel - The Vital Choice Project. Medical Freedom and Holistic Health

The Vital Choice Project (TVCP) is a PENDING 501(c)(3) educational nonprofit dedicated to empowering undergraduate students pursuing healthcare careers. Our mission is to educate future healthcare professionals in holistic healing and functional medicine, challenging the influence of Big Pharma on America’s healthcare system. We believe God created everything we need to be a healthy society! TVCP Chapters advocate for medical freedom, nutrition education, and natural healing modalities, fostering healers, not dealers. Through crowd-sourced grants, we fund students to take nutrition courses alongside mandatory pharmacology classes, promoting a balanced approach to healthcare. We partner with alternative medical training programs outside traditional Rockefeller/Carnegie institutions to support innovative education.
