06/11/25 - Run away from fungus as fast as you can!
Doug Talks About: Run away from fungus as fast as you can!
For a moment, pretend that you’re a gazelle and a life-threatening fungus, named Lion, is trying to kill you. As the story goes, every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle, or it will starve to death. The moral: It doesn’t matter if you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you better be running. On Wednesday, from 2-3 Central Time, I’ll teach you how to protect your life, and equally important, your loved one’s lives, from Lion. Every chance Lion gets, he will attack you, trying to kill you. Your job is to learn how to limit Lion’s chances. Please tell every gazelle you know to watch and learn!

Doug Talks About: To cut medical research funding, or not?
Do you believe American medicine will survive the current administrations research funding cuts? On Monday, from 2-3PM Central Time, lets discuss this because it appears that billions of dollars are being withheld from what these researchers contend is essential to life as we know it. I’ll read you a few comments that some doctors are making. From climate change funding cuts to cuts to a doctoral student who been studying post-traumatic stress, alcohol use and intimate partner violence against bisexual women. Even cancer research funding is being cut! Will we survive this? I’d love your opinion on these changes….good, or bad?

06/04/25 - I SMELL A SKUNK!
Doug Talks About: I SMELL A SKUNK!
Why is our FDA allowing a synthetic version of an estrogenic, growth promoting, dangerous mycotoxin into our daily food supply, yet other federal agencies are warning us about two “terrorist” Chinese medical researchers bringing a toned-down version of this same mycotoxin from China to America? Zearalenone grows anywhere grains or peanuts grow, and it certainly isn’t exclusive to China. We've got it all over America! On Thursday, from 2-3PM Central Time, you will learn about these two Chinese research scientists, their pubmed publications on the mycotoxins they brought into America, and America’s concern that this couple intended to expose us to these mycotoxins by spraying them from the skies all over our land. Meanwhile I wrote to our Texas Senator today about our local checkerboard sprayed skies this past week. How very ironic! More on all of this tomorrow at 2PM Central Time

Doug Talks About: Physician talks about our common exposure to Killer Fungi !!
Greg Emerson, MD, joins me on our live social media show on Monday from 2-3PM Central Time. He is one of the most loved physician guests we have ever interviewed and by popular demand, we invited him back from Brisbane, Australia to Dallas, Texas annually since 2009. The COVID pandemic halted his visits with us, but now he is back! In addition to being a fungal specialist, Dr. Emerson is a senior specialist in Emergency Medicine and in Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine and a consultant in Nutritional and Environmental Medicine. He is also one of the founding members of the Australian Chronic Infectious Disease Society. Because of his popularity and knowledge, we are not certain that our regular 60-minute live show is enough time to fully appreciate his knowledge, especially when speaking on infective fungi and their mycotoxins. For that reason, we may either go a bit longer on Mondays show or invite him back for another 60-minute live show on Tuesday, as he will still be here in Texas. The TV audience loves learning from Dr Emerson, and I am certain that you will, too! Please tell your family and friends to join us live tomorrow at 2PM Central Time!

Doug Talks About: We inject study animals with fungal poisons...and they get cancer!
One of my favorite Texas saying is, “when you find a good horse, you ride it!” Several of you apprised me that today’s show was very helpful because it increased your understanding of fungus. As I taught, grape skin nutrient, resveratrol has antidepressant properties, because resveratrol has anti-fungal properties and yeasts and fungi can cause depression. It seems we found a good horse! On Wednesday from 2-3PM Central Time, let’s continue learning of the many ways fungus fools our brightest and best doctors. On Tuesday, you had questions, and I’ll respond to those on Wednesday along with any questions that arrive early. Know how much we appreciate your presence and your feedback!

05/27/25 - What has been learned after 25 years of a daily TV show on fungus?
Doug Talks About: What has been learned after 25 years of a daily TV show on fungus?
it was a boring process, but I finally did it! Upon deleting old files from my computer this past weekend, I came across some gems that I want to share with you. Time with our grandchildren offset that boring job, however, and that made for a perfect 3-day weekend. It is so fascinating to review my notes and TV graphic presentations from years past and to realize that I was right about fungus all along. These vintage TV presentations have me believing that in spite of all the newly categorized diseases and newly approved drugs, to a doctor those must pale in comparison to finally discovering the cause of a single patient’s illness. On Tuesday from 2-3PM Central Time please join me as I reminisce with some amazing retro fungal facts, all the while trying to teach you that sadly, modern medicine has completely overlooked the incredible, yet very credible, science of fungus. Please invite a friend or two to join us on Tuesday from 2-3PM Central Time. Your questions and comments are always welcome!

05/22/25 - Did a bully cause your cancer?
Doug Talks About: Did a bully cause your cancer?
Do you believe that past trauma can cause very serious health problems much later in life? I have several friends, like Dr Lamasa Dawson who have published their finding on this interesting phenomenon. Join me on Thursday between 1-2PM Central Time as Paul and Aria refer to their experiences with trauma induced illness. You'll learn about this root cause assessments and the courses they offer. Paul Leendertse is the Author and Pioneer of 'The Root Cause of Cancer'. He has over 16 years of rare experience correlating psycho-emotional stress and cancer development, as well as helping individuals overcome their cancer. For many years Aria suffered from addictions, health challenges, and emotional distress. Unable to find answers from the medical system she eventually decided to make big changes in her life, focus on self-love and healing herself from the inside. I believe you'll enjoy and benefit from this LIVE program! Please join us and tell a friend!

05/08/25 - ANOTHER KILLER FUNGUS?
Doug Talks About: ANOTHER KILLER FUNGUS?
The headline seems as big as Dallas! Warning over killer fungus which could infect millions as it spreads across Europe. Fungal infection will be a factor in millions of deaths worldwide each year, it said. No, this headline isn’t about the killer fungus called Candida auris that that we were all warned was a killer fungus a few years ago, rather this article warns us of yet another looming killer fungus called Aspergillus. Today from 2-3PM Central Time, I want to teach you about this fungus, why it is called “Aspergillus” and what we can do to limit our exposure to it. Please join me and tell a friend!

05/05/25 - When the FDA makes mistakes
Doug Talks About: When the FDA makes mistakes
Sadly, the word “trust” and the acronym “FDA” have become antonyms. Someone’s got to make unbiased decisions using honest scientific data to drive those decisions. But I believe that sometimes in high places money muddies the “approval process” water. Foods and drugs get approved that perhaps shouldn’t have. We consumers pay the price when this happens. On Monday from 2-3PM Central Time, you will learn about two FDA approvals, one in 1969 dealing with a fungal mycotoxin added to our food supply and one in 2021 dealing with the controversial approval of a vaccine. Watch and Learn! - Doug

Sorry for the abrupt end to yesterdays show! Lightening zapped us. All is well in the studio now and we are ready to continue todays show tomorrow (Thursday) from 2-3PM Central Time. Why is it OK to implicate ionizing radiation from CT scans for 120,000 cancers annually and it's not OK to blame that same ionizing radiation from mammogram exposure for our increase in breast cancer rates?

How did you get your fungal infection? Did you figure it out on your own, or was it diagnosed by a doctor? Has it cleared up or has it moved throughout your body? Does diet seem to affect it? Have you taken medications for it, or are you sticking to natural supplements? On Wednesday from 2-3PM Central Time, given that we now know how common fungal infections truly are, let's talk about yours. Let the learning continue! - Doug

Doug Talks About: Killer Sugar
Does a spoonful of sugar make the medicine go down, or does it necessitate the medicine? I watched yesterday, as our HHS Secretary, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr stated that sugar is poison. On Monday from 2-3PM Central Time, I’m going to teach you three facts about sugar that most people, particularly those within the medical community simply do not know. Sadly, most of this group stand in judgement of Kennedy contradict much of what he says. How I wish they would all watch tomorrow at 2PM Central Time. This show will open many parents and grandparents eyes! Thanks for sharing this and for joining me! - Doug

04/24/25 - Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!
Doug Talks About: Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!
During our live show today, I mentioned that I felt that things were going to soon improve within the Halls of Science. And just like that, it happened! Today, FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary ordered removal of all pharmaceutical representatives (drug company employees) from scientific drug advisory panels! Imagine the blatant and intentional conflicts of interest that have surfaced throughout the years as insider drug employees were placed in decision-making scientific advisory meetings. Once inside, were drug employees incentivized to influence which drugs were approved? I believe this represents a blatant conflict of interest as I can only guess that inside deals were made. But then again, absolutely nothing shocks me when coming from the pharmaceutical industry. On Thursday, from 1:30-3PM Central Time let’s talk about this breaking news in addition to continuing our conversation about why there exists a near total void of fungal education during medical training. Additionally, I will continue responding to your inquiries. Please join me! - Doug

04/23/25 - How Do I Know if My Health Problems Are Linked to Fungus?
Doug Talks About: How Do I Know if My Health Problems Are Linked to Fungus?
“Doug, thank you for talking about fungus!” I’m so fortunate to hear (or read) this many times daily! I can only guess why Mycology (the study of fungus) is void during medical education, but I was so blessed to independently study fungus and their poisons (mycotoxins) as they related to human symptoms and diseases. I was then able to take the information that older Mycology library books offered and work with physicians by adding a perspective to their medical practices they hadn’t been taught. Sadly, medical training is largely void in instruction of systemic fungal disorders and current verbiage contends that these disorders are very rare. On Wednesday from 2-3PM Central Time, we will continue walking down this far less traveled road, because it is favorably impacting so many viewers. As you witnessed today, your questions are so valuable to our many viewers. Know that I am not a physician and will leave the diagnosing and treating to them, but I will tell you what I’d do if I had any symptom or diseases that evaded medical intervention! Watch and Learn and Tell Others! Thank you! - Doug

On Tuesday from 2-3PM Central Time, we’re going to discuss several recent medical papers linking fungus to symptoms and/or diseases. 35 years ago, I had to go to a library to get this much information on the devastation caused to the human body and brain by fungus, but now it seems that everyday scientists are finally “getting it!” Please feel free to get your questions in early and I’ll try to address them.

Doug Talks About: The fungus link to Endometriosis and Autism
Do any of the approximately 1,000 thus-far discovered fungal mycotoxins cause the DNA mutations characteristically seen in some of the 6,000+ known genetic mutation diseases? On Thursday, from 2-3PM Central Time, I will provide evidence that two of these diseases, autism and endometriosis, may be intimately linked to fungal mycotoxins. This will open your mind when it comes to these two terrible diseases that are often represented in medical charts across America as “etiology (cause) unknown.” It is my hope that one day all genetic mutation diseases will be required to rule out fungus first. Please watch and learn! - Doug

04/16/25 - Do Fungi and Yeast Cause Depression?
Doug Talks About: Do Fungi and Yeast Cause Depression?
What does fungus have to do with heart attacks? Earlier this week we showed that antibiotics have good, bad and ugly properties, one of which was inducing cardiovascular medical events. On Wednesdays show, you will receive information on the good, the bad and the ugly effects of antidepressants as we discuss the role of fungus in depression. Seems to me that FUPO (Fungus Until Proven Otherwise) is a perfect acronym for my shows! I’ll cite one 2008 reference that stated that overall, antidepressants were about 7% effective. Of course, just like with antibiotics, doctors and drug companies have found many, many uses for antidepressants, from migraine headaches to insomnia to pain. Oh, sometimes they even work for depression. Do the increased suicide risks of taking antidepressants outweigh the benefit of them? Let’s talk! Do you have an antidepression story? Please join me from 2-3PM Central Time on Wednesday and I’ll teach you to inform your doctor about 3 safe and inexpensive supplements that may help calm your brain.

Doug Talks About: How to stay healthy as though your life depended upon it
Have you had the seasonal flu this year? If not, it’s probably a good thing, because a new study contends that having the flu increases your risk of having a heart attack within the first week of the infection sixfold! Let’s talk about this study on Monday, April 14th from 2-3PM Central Time. I very seriously doubt that the flu increases the risk of a heart attack sixfold, but when combining this study with other studies, I believe that its conclusions (the flu increases the risk of a heart attack) but not its headline (it's not the flu doing this!), are accurate. In fact, please watch this show if you are concerned about any of our most common killer diseases in America, including heart disease, cancer and diabetes, among others. Based on what you will learn, it seems to be that preventing disease may be easier than we have been told. Watch and learn and share with your friends! - Doug

Doug Talks About: Slow your aging process
“You’ll just have to live with it, because it’s part of getting old.” REALLY? Today, live from 2-3PM Central Time a panel of experts join me to discuss the two aging processes. What makes them experts? They, and their host, were once young, but are now old. Lori, a registered nurse experienced breast cancer during her aging process. Van was an athlete who has undergone several surgeries later in his aging process. Like any aging person, Marty has aches and pains. Each has not only survived but they have thrived. Why are some old people old and some old people young? Please tell every oldster to watch today’s show and afterward answer this question; if you didn’t know your birthdate, how old would you guess you are?

Doug Talks About: Fungus Does That?
Did you hear about the 7 or 8 nurses working on the same ward in a Massachusetts hospital who all developed brain cancers? Let’s discuss this first. Then, I think it is fair to say that no one funny comprehends the entire scope of fungus, and their poisons (mycotoxins) induced illness in our lives. The simple fact is, we inhale them, we eat them, our medications either prompts fungal growth or is fungus (antibiotics). Fungus grows in any human tissue, and they transcend typical yeast infections and skin fungal infections like athletes’ foot. Did you know that bone cells (osteoblasts) harbor a species of diseases causing Candida yeast? Is this why osteoporosis or osteopenia are rampant? On Mondays live show, from 2-3PM Central Time, let’s continue our conversations on the many ways fungus and their mycotoxins can deceive even the most brilliant diagnosticians. Please join me! - Doug

04/04/25 - Another fungus-cancer link.
Doug Talks About: Another fungus-cancer link.
On Friday from 10-11AM, we will take yet another glance at the formation of cancer as though fungal poisons contribute to it. Let’s travel between two distinct Bible verses within this show. Jeremiah 5:21 states, “Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not.” How is it that cancer specialists, who discovered disease causing fungi in 90% of the homes of their leukemia patients (I will share this paper with you during the show), then blame then homes for these patients returning to the hospital with Invasive Fungal Infections (IFI)? Hospitals are breeding grounds for germs like fungi which pose a threat to already immunocompromised patients with leukemia. But these scientists minimize their own culpability by discovering fungus within the patients’ homes! First, they admit that their own cancer treatments caused immunosuppression, then they acknowledge that IFI’s would add to the severity of their leukemia. No where in this 2024 study is there even a thought that the mold/fungus in these cancer patients homes either caused their leukemia or is mimicking it. “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Luke 23:34. Please join me on Friday at 10AM as I continue to discuss fungus as a very well-known and well publicized cause of cancer with you…and hopefully with our healthcare brethren, which have eyes and see not. - Doug

04/01/25 - Free Immune System Supplement For New Viewers!
Doug Talks About: Free Immune System Supplement For New Viewers!
He used toy firetrucks to demonstrate how one of the most published and proven immune system supplements, Beta Glucan, would “put out the fire” within our intricate immune system. Filtering play balls though a wire colander would demonstrate how important it was to reduce the size of Beta Glucan particles, which added to its function of cleaving onto our cell receptor sites, like (as Frank put it) a baseball is received by a catcher’s mitt. Frank Jordan has blessed our TV show and company for 25 years, enabling the needed funds for the show to grow and flourish to networks around the world. But even more importantly, Beta Glucan is helping thousands of users as it “arms” our immune system, thereby helping to guard against intruding germs. It’s one of a few supplements that I take daily. Franks son, Mark joins us live in our TX film studio on Tuesday, April 1st from 1-2PM Central Time. Every immune system deserves proper defense and there is nothing quite like Beta Glucan. We will make certain that new viewers get a 10-day supply of Beta Glucan 10mg (NSC100) sent to them free, including postage. Frank will join us live via Zoom from his office. Both Frank and Mark will respond to your inquiries, so get your questions and/or comments in early. This will be a great learning experience for many of us!

03/31/25 - What Happens When You Inhale Mold?
Doug Talks About: What Happens When You Inhale Mold?
Within the past 3 decades, medical insurance carriers have commonly denied fungal disease medical claims. They still do. Within that same time, homeowners’ insurance companies began denying claims linked to remediating indoor mold. I believe that money, not science, is behind these denial claims. If I am correct, that many if not most symptoms we humans suffer from likely have a fungal basis and fungus can be inhaled inside a toxic home, then this would make sense as treating fungal illness would financially drain insurance companies. Yet most doctors and insurance companies deny this and that makes perfect financial sense to me. But it doesn’t make scientific sense. Today there are thousands of scientific articles implicating fungus as “the cause” of much human suffering. I believe that a pivotal event occurred in the mid-1990’s that caused the medical community and insurance companies to turn a cold-shoulder on fungal symptoms and diseases and I’ll share this most interesting story with you on Monday, March 31st, from 2-3 Central Time. It’s a sad story in which a dozen babies died mysteriously. I’ll also discuss how inhaling mold in an indoor environment can negatively impact your health-and sometimes cost you your life.

Doug Talks About: Antibiotic Overdose + Killer Fungus Moving Rapidly
These are the topics we will discuss on Monday, March 24th from 2-3PM Central Time and Tuesday, March 25th from 9-10AM Central Time. For over 50 years, doctors have been prescribing antibiotics for bacterial blood poisoning (septicemia). No doubt, lives were saved. But how many of those saved by (as it turns out) excessive antibiotics treatment have departed early? Mycotoxins (antibiotics) can and do cause serious illnesses, including cancer, and death. This is not rare. Coupled with that fact, is this one; doctors have been over prescribing antibiotics for many, many years. Now comes a new article in the New England Journal of Medicine that concluded, “Among hospitalized patients with bloodstream infection, antibiotic treatment for 7 days was noninferior to treatment for 14 days.” Also, on Monday and Tuesday I’ll update you on this headline, “Fungus labeled ‘urgent threat’ by CDC is spreading rapidly, hospital study finds.” Please join me on this two-day discussion. That should allow plenty of time for responses to your questions.

03/12/25 - Does fungus cause cancer?
Doug Talks About: Does fungus cause cancer?
A new research paper in Molecular Cancer helps us better understand the role of fungi in a disease we call cancer; “Accumulating evidence suggests a possible involvement of commensal and pathogenic fungi in cancer initiation, progression, and treatment responsiveness. The tumor-associated mycobiome mainly consists of the gut mycobiome, the oral mycobiome, and the intratumoral mycobiome.” Today from 3-4PM Central Time we will continue learning about the role of poisonous fungal mycotoxins in human symptoms and diseases, while responding to some great questions from yesterdays show.

Can fungus be both your best friend and simultaneously your worst enemy? On Tuesday from 3-4PM Central Time, let’s discuss this. While using fungal mycotoxins (antibiotics) to erase gut bacteria in newborn study mice, Utah researchers discovered a different fungus that was responsible for preventing diabetes in them. Could this discovered commensal fungus become the next probiotic treatment for diabetes? I’ll also read a letter from the American Cancer Society. Guess what they want? I think you’ll like this show.

Doug Talks About: My Doctor Said...
On Wednesday afternoon from 3-4PM Central Time, we’ll continue our discussion on the role of poisonous fungal byproducts (mycotoxins) that we are very, very commonly exposed to, in the many symptoms and diseases we suffer from. Tonight, I typed “fungi masquerading as cancer” into the pubmed.org website search engine and 212 papers were available to be reviewed. Then I typed in “Fungal infection misdiagnosed as cancer” and I could access 336 research papers. Finally, I typed in “Fungal infection mimicking cancer” and 374 papers appeared. And that’s just cancer! Simply put, our brightest and best brains in medicine are not learning this and we, the people are paying the price. Hopefully, my show will enable you the strength to bring up the topic of fungus the next time you’re sitting in your doctors office….again….and again. It's frustrating, isn't it?

02/27/25 - Injectable Immunity
Doug Talks About: Injectable Immunity
Upon coming home from Vietnam, I was assigned to The Naval Training Center (NTC) in San Diego, CA where I gave new recruits vaccinations…lots of vaccinations…thousands of vaccinations! We learned that these vaccinations were mandated, essential and lifesaving. The other Corpsmen and I never once questioned all these shots. Yet, since those 5-10 vaccinations we gave to each adult in 1971 represented a tiny fraction of what small babies now receive in 2025, many of us are seeking more information.
Thursday from 11AM-Noon Central Time, I will talk about shots, immunity, antibodies and measles. I will make every effort to give you valuable and factual information hoping that you share it with your own doctor. Please join me for this and more and ask a friend to join us also! - Doug

02/25/25 - "I don't know why your skin is doing that, but take this drug."
Doug Talks About: "I don't know why your skin is doing that, but take this drug."
Skin diseases are not new. Today there are several hundred definable skin disorders. Biblical times witnessed their share of skin diseases long before drugs to treat them appeared: “Command the Israelites to send away from the camp anyone who has a defiling skin disease…” Numbers 5:2. Diagnosing skin conditions, including skin cancers accurately presents a problem to physicians.
Today (2/25/25), from 3-4PM Central Time, we will discuss what doctors tell us are commonly misdiagnosed skin conditions. If skin problems are misdiagnosed, they are also over treated. What might cause strange skin reactions and what might be done to reverse them? - Doug

Wednesday at 11AM, we're going to let you listen to a true lung expert who was on my show a few years ago. Who would ever believe that 80-90% of the problems that exist within our lungs is linked to fungus? When he is uncertain, he does a bronchoscopy on his patients to determine if it is bacteria or fungus that is contributing to their respiratory problems. I know the time is early, but our local meteorologist tells us that we may see rain tomorrow and at 25 degrees, you know what that means.

02/18/25 - RFK Yay or Nay?
Doug Talks About: RFK Yay or Nay?
Make America Healthy Again says Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. who now heads our Health and Human Services (HHS) Department. Our liberal communities contend that Kennedy is a conspiracy theorist who erroneously believes that changing food ingredients are making kids sick, that antidepressants are linked with school shootings, that vaccinations are linked to autism and other illnesses and that WiFi is linked to cancer. Conservatists, on the other hand, contend that Kennedy is a timely nominee who merely wants to investigate if the current high pediatric mental and physical illness rates have to do with food ingredients or medical interventions such as excessive vaccines and medications. While Kennedy points out that the 72 vaccinations children receive have not been formally studied or guaranteed safe and effective, our government has offered full indemnification to the vaccine makers and the doctors who give them. Drug companies argue that their vaccine formulas are proprietary, and the ingredients need not be disclosed to those giving or receiving vaccines.
On Monday from 3-4PM Central Time, the floor is yours as we study this topic. Do drug companies, researchers and doctors need to be more transparent, or do you feel comfortable with the way things are today in medicine? Thanks for your participation. I can’t wait to get your feedback on this important national issue! - Doug
PS…do you regularly get screened for cancer?

02/13/25 - Are your health problems linked to fungus?
Doug Talks About: Are your health problems linked to fungus?
As is often the case, when dealing with fungal diseases, there are more questions than answers. In the mid-1980’s, I discovered a method of indicating or ruling out fungus as the cause of people’s symptoms and/or disease. We now know that approximately 4,000,000 die annually of fungal diseases. Can you just imagine how many are sickened every year by them? The numbers are staggering, leading us to ask, am I one of them? On Thursday from 11AM-Noon Central Time, I will teach you a simple program designed to let you know with accuracy if your health problems are linked to fungus. Share your results with your doctor! I will also respond your fungal related questions, so get them in early! - Doug

02/11/25 - IS FUNGUS MAKING YOU OLD?
Doug Talks About: IS FUNGUS MAKING YOU OLD?
Do fungi speed up our aging process? I know this sounds a bit crazy, but I believe they do, and I will present proof that might have you trying at least two of the three known aging “brakes”! Of course, many people talk about each one of these items because they are well known to decelerate our physiological aging process, but why? I don’t believe anyone else understands how all three implicate fungus in an annoying human process we call “AGING.” From 3-4PM Tuesday, February 11th please join me and tell an aging friend. You might be able to fire your plastic surgeon! - Doug

Doug Talks About: If you had cancer, what would you do? If you have had it, what have you done? Help me help others!
We were a family of 7 and 5 of us contracted cancer. Mom, dad, two sisters and my brother all had cancer and three of those five have passed. With family cancer stats like these, I often wonder what my chances of getting or worse, succumbing to cancer really are. On Monday from 3-4PM, let’s discuss the cancer of yesteryear and juxtapose it with the cancer of today. By doing so, you’ll be able to see why I remain optimistic that cancer can be prevented and taking antifungal medications is not part of the program (although I did this in the late 1980’s). Preventing cancer, or any disease for that matter, needs to be regularly discussed in this forum, particularly because the tract the FDA has us on as far as pharmaceutical treatments is abysmal. We’ll discuss this. Please join me from 3-4PM Central Time tomorrow. Thank you for all you have done to contribute to the success of this live show! You are so appreciated! - Doug

10/21/24 - When Your Cells Attack Each Other!
Doug Talks About: When Your Cells Attack Each Other!
Does the human body mistakenly injure itself? I don’t believe it does, but according to the medical community the answer is "yes, it does." In the 1950’s the term “Auto Immune Disease” was coined. Scientists argued that allergies and anaphylaxis (life-threatening allergic reactions) were proof that our body does self-injure itself. Mind you, auto-immunity is a 65-year-old theory that has never been challenged. Why is that? Let's talk on Monday. A decade ago, I dedicated a television segment to better understanding “our 80 autoimmune diseases.” Today, we have 135 auto immune diseases, 30 of which are named as badges of honor after the scientists who discovered them. Join me on Monday from 3-4PM Central Time, especially if you or a loved one have been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, or have been told, “we’re not certain, but you might have an autoimmune disease.” I’ll offer you an experimental 30-day lifestyle change that may offer the results you’ve been hoping and praying for. No, this 30-day trial does not cure autoimmune diseases, but in 30-days you’ll better know if your autoimmune disease is something you must live with, or perhaps not. Please share this with those who need to hear it. - Doug

10/17/24 - Once upon a time in a medical clinic
Doug Talks About: Once upon a time in a medical clinic
The year was 1986. David Weakley, MD invited me to relocate my family from California to Texas to work with him after he witnessed some amazing patient results while using diet and antifungal medications for their skin problems. He senior nurse was Linda. Thursday is Linda’s birthday, and I will be picking her up and bringing her to our studios, then we have a birthday surprise for her, followed by lunch. We laughed that we were both in our 40’s when we met….and how quickly the years have passed. Dr. Weakley’s patients and all of us in his dermatology clinic loved (and still love) Linda. Dr Weakly passed in the 1990’s and left Linda and me with such wonderful memories that we hope to share with you. Please join us from 11-Noon on Thursday and allow us to reminisce a bit as we remember the good old days when a physician was free to use both nutrition and “off label” prescription (FDA approved, but not for the condition it is being prescribed for) if he/she felt these might benefit their patients. Of course, off label medication use eroded very quickly a few years ago. Linda and I are excited to share an hour with you. Please join us! - Doug

10/16/24 - So...it doesn't matter what you eat?
Doug Talks About: So...it doesn't matter what you eat?
Here are two distinct medical truths. First, food impacts health. Second, fungus kills almost 4 million humans annually. Why is it, then, that American medical schools are avoiding these truths? It is my opinion that Max Planck, the German theoretical physicist who won the Nobel Prize in 1918 for his quantum physics discovery, summed up this medical school discrepancy perfectly over 100 years ago. Planck stated, “A scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.” May I get an "Amen?"
On Wednesday from 11AM-Noon Central Time, I’ll offer a short monologue on these two medical truths, then the ball is in your court for the rest of the show. We have a very large audience, and I love that we learn from each other. Have you ever asked your doctor about diet changes, nutritional supplements, or fungus as a possible cause of your health problems, or did he/she broach these subjects before you asked? Let’s talk! Thanks for being an important part of this audience! You are appreciated! - Doug

10/15/24 - Inhale at your own risk!
Doug Talks About: Inhale at your own risk!
I typed “indoor mold” into the pubmed.gov website and 3,401 research papers were available for review. 30 years ago, indoor mold problems were thought to only contribute to sniffles. Today, we know that inhalation of certain indoor toxic mold spores could cause many severe symptoms and diseases. But before it does, it frustrates your doctor, while simultaneously making your life unbearable. Lisa Chase of Health Quest Technologies, producers of The Pionair Air Purifier will join me live on Tuesday’s social media show from 3-4PM Central Time. No matter where you live, as we enter our cold and damp weather season, you must learn about this advanced indoor air purification system. Simply plug it in and within 10-minutes, you’ll begin to enjoy clean, pure air in your home. Lisa and I look forward to responding to your questions/comments! Thanks! - Doug

10/14/24 - Pressure to Prescribe
Doug Talks About: Pressure to Prescribe
Are you discovering that you’re feeling better and better when addressing a possible fung is this donal/mycotoxin cause to your past misery? For over 50 years, my goal has been to stay well, thereby circumventing, for now, the need for doctors and medical care facilities. Many of you feel this same way. But circumventing routine annual visits and procedures is loosing money for someone, and they need to make up for that loss. How might they do this? It feels to me like more aggressive diagnoses and treatments are being made daily. Decades ago, lowering blood fat levels set the stage. Recently, they lowered the “target” of blood pressure readings leading to an increase in high blood pressure diagnoses and therefore more prescriptions for B/P medications. Another example of this was just published on a medical website. As it turned out, one in five older adults who received Medicare “Annual Wellness Visits”, or AWV’s, weren't really well at all. A full 21% of them were found to have “mild cognitive impairment!” As the article points out, new Alzheimer’s drugs “have increased pressure on physicians to evaluate cognitive changes…” On Monday from 3-4PM Central Time, I will share some fascinating studies with you that clearly, yet subtlety, indicate that over-diagnoses and over-treatment may be occurring much more broadly than we are currently aware of. The signs of aggressive diagnoses and treatment are foreseeable and on Monday afternoon let’s discuss important signals that you may be unaware of. Please join me, tell a few friends and be careful out there! - Doug

10/11/24 - Another round of antibiotics? Is this safe?
Doug Talks About: Another round of antibiotics? Is this safe?
A large study involving almost 8,000,000 people exposed (or not) to various antibiotics, then evaluated for incidence of cancers took place in 2019. As I have been teaching you for many years, antibiotics increase the risk of various cancers by between 18-30%. This article dovetails perfectly with a new article in the New England Journal of Medicine, entitled The Failing U.S. Health System. With both important articles in mind, on Friday from 11-Noon Central Time you and I will evaluate an important sentence in the latter article; “What is the future of a country that allows an untold number of its people to suffer and die unnecessarily because of lack of access to basic health services, inadequate public health measures, and a tattered health net?”. Who is to blame? Please tell a friend to join in on the conversation! - Doug

Doug Talks About: 1.Eat Well. 2.Shame on those nasty viruses!
Two topics on Monday, both begging our healthcare workers for more accurate diagnoses. #1- BREAKING-from the University of North Dakota, U.S medical training is failing to address nation’s #1 killer. This article will make you all smile! 2. I have taught on the fungus/mycotoxin link to brain symptoms and diseases for many years. Now comes a new study that implicates viruses, not fungi, as contributing to diseases like Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s. If you’re familiar with my teachings, you’ll fully understand this excerpt from the article: “Those who were hospitalized with pneumonia after catching the flu seemed to be more susceptible to Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).” Now, you “get it…right? Welcome new viewers and welcome back all of those whose foundational support of this show has created its success! Please join me on Monday from 3-4PM Central Time and let’s delve into these interesting topics, because an educated medical consumer knows that options exist. Thanks! - Doug

10/04/24 - Today’s Live Show Proves That Fungal Infections are Being Misdiagnosed!
Doug Talks About: Today’s Live Show Proves That Fungal Infections are Being Misdiagnosed!
Who in the world would have ever thought that I would take the subject of fungus and turn it into a successful clinical nutrition practice, then a successful syndicated radio show in the 1990’s, then a 25-year running TV show that now airs in 100 million global households, then twelve books on the subject of human fungal diseases, and finally the distinct honor of teaching thousands of social media viewers about fungus each day. Why have I been so successful? I am convinced that it is because our brightest and best minds in medicine are largely unaware that disease causing fungi, once inside our body, produce known poisons that are mimicking every disease known to these brilliant minds…before they slowly disseminate throughout our body and kill us. Join me from 11-Noon Central Time tomorrow and let’s discuss some brand-new medical headlines that further confirm that fungal diseases are being misdiagnosed and patients are paying the price. - Doug
