The Silence, The Lie, and The Trap. Last week we drew the line between wanting to be healthy and not wanting to get sick. In this show, we go deeper into why that gap exists — and why it's costing people their lives. The silence is where disease hides before you know it's there. The lie is the system that tells you you're fine.... and the trap is believing it. Read Dr. Kolbaba's Commentary: "The Illusion of Monitoring." HealthQuest Radio Special: "Quik Test."

It's a Scary Proposition, Marauders of the HealthCare Industry. “Three years ago, I almost spent $300 a month on injections that promised to melt away decades of poor choices.

In this show, we’re going to talk about that moment. That split second when marketing meets vulnerability, and when our desire for transformation collides with the uncomfortable truth that real health isn’t found in a quick fix.

How to get the best out of today’s blessings, while avoiding the curses. Fun Facts: Don’t drink from the faucet . . . anymore? Cars don’t stall at the stop lights. Hard bristled toothbrushes were strongly advised by dental experts. So, was/is Fluoride in toothpastes and drinking water? When it comes to cavities, when was the best time to live . . . a long time ago … or today? By the way, many of our most common diseases of today were “non-evident” . . . hundred years ago.  Nathan Jones, CEO of Xlear, Inc., joins the show to discuss the petition filed with the FDA to consider xylitol as an approved over-the-counter active ingredient in dental hygiene products.

Zinc deficiencies, Immune System, Ionophores. You might assume or believe that you are safe and sound when it comes to maintaining your zinc levels, when in reality you’re not maintaining proper levels of zinc and you will ultimately pay the price.

Poor Nutrition, Types of Magnesium, Zinc. Our Standard American Diet is rich with the poorest nutritional value.

When We Eat Matters as Much as What We Eat. We’ve spent decades obsessing over what to eat—counting calories, eliminating food groups, debating diets. But we’ve largely ignored a fundamental question that our ancestors understood intuitively: When should we eat? Because true wellness isn’t just about feeding ourselves—it’s about feeding ourselves in harmony with how we’re designed to function.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ This You Need to Know! Call our HealthQuest Radio Hotline at 800-794-1855 to schedule your New Patient Strategy Consultation.

We Get to Choose . . . Do You Know Your Choices? Interesting that the whole of healthcare past or present came from the same beginnings. But then there was a split. The one became the two, as debate began to shape everything in healthcare, influencing how we treat sickness and disease, affecting how we live our daily lives. And in this show, we are going to dive into both sides of this health-puzzle that continues to impact all of us. Call our HealthQuest Hotline at 800-794-1855 to schedule your New Patient Strategy Consultation.

Blame it on Who or What? How does it Happen? Community vs. Isolation. To what extent do you believe your ancestry/heredity is being manifested in your present state of health. To the good or bad? To your sense of hardiness/healthiness? Or, to your sense of fear and vulnerability to the risks and weaknesses of your ancestry? How does that make you feel? We’re taking a look at the precursors to sickness and disease, and a strategy to lower your health risks for a lifetime.

“Too Late-Treating Society" Tune in for more on "Thank God for . . . It's Too Bad That" . . . We let people percolate, allowing diseases to advance.

Cardiovascular Issues, Oxidative Stress, Premature Aging. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage human cells. Oxidative stress happens when there are too many of these free radicals and not enough antioxidants to keep them under control. This unfortunately, makes for higher susceptibility to sickness and disease, along with premature aging…aka, the average American today.  HealthQuest Radio Special: Free Radical Test. Call our HealthQuest Radio Hotline at 800-794-1855.

Sickness is So Inconvenient. Is Higher Health . . . “Hit or Miss?" Most of us believe that placing healthy foods in our mouth produces healthy results. While this might be a healthy first step, it isn’t the only step to take. Most Americans unknowingly have unhealthy digestive tracts, but how would one know? This hidden issue helps explain why attempting to reach a higher state of health can be a hit-or-miss proposition and may account for those short-lived diet plans that seem ineffective.    

Sunny C-1000 is the ticket. Sailors on long voyages developed a horrifying condition where their teeth fell out, old wounds reopened and led to terrible infections, and they’d bleed from every orifice before . . . dying . . . in agony. It was so common that ships routinely lost more crew to this terrible condition than to storms, pirates, or warfare all combined. Fact: Scurvy killed millions of sailors between the years of 1500 and 1800. This is where it gets really interesting: we humans are among the few mammals that cannot make our own vitamin C. Georgia Austin, Certified Clinical Nutritionist/Certified Nutrition Specialist, joins the show to discuss "why" Vitamin C is so vitally important to all of us today.

Vitamin D, Vitamin K, Vitamin A: This Trifecta will Kill You, or Save You. Dr David Kolbaba: "In over 40 years of clinical practice, I have never heard anyone in the natural healthcare community, or mainstream medicine, speak to such a critical correlation, that leads to only two outcomes. One outcome has such desirable health benefits, while the other one, on the other hand, will leave a devastating impact on so many people today…That's why I began talking about this on last week’s show."

“That's not going to happen” . . . The Right Daily Multiple Supplement. The challenges of modern living are endless. The simple more natural side of life gets clobbered on a daily basis. Is it true that finding appropriate nutrient-based food, is in the rearview mirror as well? Or is it still, a possibility in our country today? If we aren't getting all the nutrients, we need from the foods we eat, then what is a person to do? Georgia Austin, CCN and Metagenics Specialist, joins the show to help us make the right choice in choosing a high-quality daily supplement. Call our HealthQuest Radio Hotline at 800-794-1855 to order your supply of "Dr. K's Super VitaQuest" daily supplement, or order from our website store.

Fluoride . . . a "Not-So" Storybook Tale. The CDC recognizes water fluoridation as one of the 10 great public-health achievements of the 20th century.

CEO, Nathan Jones, joins the show to discuss the recent fluoride ban in Utah. You can find Spry Dental Defense Products and Xlear Nasal Spray at most natural products retailers nationwide.

FTC lawsuit, Glutathione, GLP-1 Therapy. During the pandemic, our government shuttered the marketplace of ideas—and the American people, our economy, and our sense of community suffered. Ongoing efforts of the FTC to censor science and blatantly violating the law and Constitution would have been greatly curtailed, had it not been for the efforts of this Natural Health Freedom-Fighter. Xlear, Inc. CEO, Nathan Jones, joins the show to share his thoughts on the dismissal of the FTC lawsuit against his company. And more.... DOJ Asks Court to Dismiss FTC - Xlear, Inc. Lawsuit
