My Freedom From Pharmaceutical Drugs Story

My Freedom From Pharmaceutical Drugs Story

Freedom From Pharmacy podcast was borne out of experience and observation. I grew up on our family dairy farm and became a partner after high school in 2004. As a class valedictorian, people expected me to join college, but what could I learn there that I hadn’t already learned by doing the work? This was my thinking at the time. Unlike crop farming, where farmers work in seasons (planting and harvesting), dairy farmers are busy year-round.

In 2007, I discovered that I enjoyed listening to audiobooks and learned a lot while working. My curiosity about religion led me to learn, download, and convert books to audio. Listening to the 38 volumes of Christian writings in the first several centuries led to my conversion to the Catholic Church. Later, I started practicalapologetics.blogspot.com to share information about finding the Church Jesus had established. After 3000 hours a year of educating the masses on this topic, I decided to venture into other topics that might be useful. Health was one of those topics. 

Learning how to reverse disease was a fascinating and liberating topic naturally. I realized that my family and I could avoid being sick, as is the fate of many Americans. As I progressed in my research, the mainstream medical system rot stood out. I could no longer sit on the sidelines and continue watching it happen. I started the podcast Freedomfrompharmacy.com to vent my frustrations and rally against the mainstream model. 

The goal was to help people, and if I made some money off of it, it wouldn’t hurt either. So, I decided to work with a farmer to highlight the benefits of natural health and show my credibility to him. I got certification in holistic nutrition; I passed in the top 98 percentile because I already knew most of the material from the time. 

The natural health field has its challenges. Imagine you have a family member taking a myriad of drugs instead of improving his condition only worsens it. The remedy is to stop taking the drugs and focus on natural health. As a natural health expert, you float this idea to them, but they disregard it and continue to suffer.

  I once posted something about health on Facebook, and a mutual friend saw it and commented that if there were a doctor who could reverse his disease, he would travel a thousand miles to see him. I replied that I would direct him to a doctor, but the condition is reversible using natural supplements. I cited a Harvard study showing the reversal of arthritis with chicken cartilage. However, he did not reply.

Another example: I am in religious Facebook groups, and people often send prayer requests for their health conditions. I believe that God answers prayers by putting people into your life who can help, but this is not the help people want or expect. I explained why the body acts up, causing various illnesses, and how to reverse it back to health using natural supplements. Again, no one bothered.

In another scenario, the wife of my dad’s friend had Multiple Sclerosis (M.S.), and my dad requested him to call me for further consultation, but he didn’t, and his wife later passed on. Interestingly, Dr. Terry Wahls changed her diet from a wheelchair to biking 18 miles at a time. 

These unsuccessful examples taught me the following lessons:

Do not be a missionary when it comes to health. Let people find you and help them to the best of your ability. In the previous examples, the people seemed like they wanted help, but they did not have the initiative to learn more about these natural supplements. Also, they were skeptical about trying alternative medicine. This is what makes the podcast ideal. People can find it on their own and listen to it; if interested, they will reach out.

It is hard to change people’s convictions. Most people believe that if the medical doctor can’t help, then no one else. This dates back to 1910 with the Flexner report. This report determined which medical schools used pharmaceutical drugs and which did not. It led to funding schools that taught pharmaceutical drugs by the Rockefellers and Carnegie foundations while defunding the schools that taught natural medicine. The mainstream medical system ended up pushing natural medicine away, and they were even convicted of conspiracy against the chiropractic profession. 

The brainwashing is so bad that Medical degree doctors (MD) are the leading cause of death in the U.S., but people keep giving them money and race for the cure. M.D.s kill more people in a year with their advice than people who are killed in abortion, which is over a million a year. This led to a podcast with a quick overview of the top ten needless deaths caused by doctors. It explains how bad the system is and how people keep returning.

However, there is good news with Covid 19; more people realize that there is a problem. They have witnessed doctors such as Dr. Robert Malone (the creator of the mRNA technology) and Michael Yeadon (former Pfizer VP) being silenced after saying NO to the shot. Further, the Pfizer CEO was quoted saying 2 shots of the vaccine do not offer protection, so people need to get a booster shot. 

It is laughable that Pfizer wanted 75 years to release the data from their trials. In contrast, it took a 2 hour podcast listing everything that came out in just the first year of it.

I chose to monetize my podcast by joining a network marketing company founded by a giant in the natural health world. They sell top-notch supplements and do all the work for their clients, such as taking orders and shipping. However, the downside is that the supplements are expensive and make it hard for people to try them, and the current inflation makes it even harder.

 Martin Armstrong of Shadow Stats tracks inflation by showing how it was calculated in the 80s before it was changed to hide the inflation tax. His models show that in the U.S., it is 15%, not the reported 7%. This was before the Russia Ukraine situation. 

The last time inflation was out of control, Fed chairman Volcker raised the interest rate to around 20%, and it took 3 years to get the inflation down. Keep in mind this was before unlimited money printing under Obama and Trump’s reign, which now has the monetary system dependent on it for its survival. With countries opting not to use dollars in the sale of oil, the foreign demand for dollars has decreased and further increased inflation. 

With the current state of the world, I would advise anyone who wants to venture into the natural health business to focus on helping people to choose the correct healthy foods to eat rather than asking them to buy natural supplements that are expensive and unaffordable for most.  

Those intending to start a podcast do not panic if the first few podcasts are not good or they do not get enough traction. Gradually, one learns to edit the bad parts, and an audience will increase if they relate to the aired content. Additionally, keep a regular schedule of new podcasts, whether one a week or one a day.

Lastly, keep learning. It is a lifelong skill that helps one perfect their skill. For example, reading about and researching diseases and natural remedies helps one identify a certain condition and provide a diagnosis quickly.
