Dr. Teitelbaum discusses the side effects of medicines used to treat common illnesses, which can, in the long run, create complications worse than the medical conditions they were intended to alleviate. The list includes natural treatment alternatives to substitute: Birth control pill Use of antibiotics to treat acne Use of antibiotics for ear infections in babies Medicines to strengthen the bones Antidepressants Acid reflux prescriptions Cholesterol drugs

Even in these modern times of technology and scientific research, contemporary literature can hardly rival the abundant and detailed ancient texts of Ayurveda in matters that regard the effects of metals on human physiology. In this episode, Vaidya Mishra sheds light on a key metal, iron, and its effects on our body.

While we worry about pesticides, colorants, preservatives, and other harmful chemicals in our food, antibiotics and vaccines in meats, very few people are aware of the health-deteriorating effects of microplastics in table salt. As a result of decades of trash dumping in our oceans, plastic bottles, bags, and other manufactures shred into very tiny fragments that we end up ingesting with the salt. They are a well-known factor in sterility and many other disorders/illnesses in our physiology. An alternative to marine salt, the Himalayan salt, also referred to as pink salt, has always been considered a better substitute. Even in the ancient times of the rishis, when ocean pollution did not exist, this salt variety was regarded as superior and recommended in the Sanskrit texts. In this brief but revealing episode, Vaidya Mishra explains all about Himalayan salt, from sourcing to purification and laboratory tests involved in the produccion of Soma Salt.

The extraordinarily deep understanding of physiological processes revealed by Ayurveda points almost invariably to toxins as the underlying cause of diseases or the imbalances that, if not addressed early, will lead to them. This extraordinary live presentation by Dr. Teitelbaum covers in two parts all that is needed to know about such a crucial subject. Part 1 explains the four types of toxins as well as the vibrational and physical channels. Part 2 addresses the main organs of elimination, the seven tissues with their chain of transformation, and finally, the ayurvedic techniques to detoxify putting special emphasis on how to prepare the body by unclogging the channels to ensure that toxins get truly eliminated instead of leaving a tissue to get stuck on another without being driven out. The most powerful detoxifying foods and the most convenient seasons of the year to engage in detoxification protocols are also revealed.
