  • Medical Autonomy and Religious Freedom Cancel Out Vaccine Requirements
    May 21 2026
    On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

    Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), shares a holistic perspective on health news today. Dr. Jack starts with an announcement the U.S. military will no longer require American troops to get the flu vaccine, based on medical autonomy and religious freedom. The annual flu shot has been required for all U.S. military personnel since the 1950s. The decision has sparked debate with public health organizations, like the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases arguing that high vaccination coverage remains critical for military readiness, particularly in close-quarters living and working environments. Some retired military officials have also criticized the shift, pointing to the historical threat influenza poses to troop readiness.

    Moving on to the hantavirus, which is responsible for the deaths of three people on a cruise ship, Dr. Jack compares similarities with the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and equates the deaths from Covid were mainly patients already dealing with comorbidities, making them more susceptible than anyone who was healthy. The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified the global risk to the general public from the recent hantavirus outbreak as low. They explicitly state this outbreak is not the next COVID-19, as hantavirus spreads differently and is not highly contagious.

    Doug and Dr. Jack join forces to address the battle of finding proper supplements, and one they agree is a great made-from-whole-foods option is from Standard Process. Their Diaplex and Zypan vitamins/supplements that trigger better digestive support and response while also helping to balance the sugar control in the system. Standard Process supplements are highly regarded for their "seed-to-supplement" approach, which focuses on whole-food nutrition rather than synthetic isolates. By controlling everything from the soil to the final pill, the brand aims to deliver nutrients in the complex, natural state that the body recognizes and absorbs best.

  • What Is the DASH Diet, and How Does It Help With Brain Health
    May 19 2026
    On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

    Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken begin with the MIND diet and how it can help stave off dementia. The MIND diet (a hybrid of the Mediterranean and DASH diets) fights off dementia by reducing brain inflammation, lowering oxidative stress, and preventing harmful protein build-ups. By prioritizing specific brain-boosting foods and eliminating harmful ones, it can lower your risk of Alzheimer's disease by up to 53%. As beans are part of the MIND Diet, the conversation sidetracks to a focus to beans, (AKA “the musical fruit”) and their gas-producing tendencies. False rumors are that beans contain gluten or could be prepared/cross-contaminated with gluten, causing intestinal issues for those who have gluten intolerance, gluten allergies or celiac disease. The reality is that beans are naturally gluten free, but some may prepare them in ways that make them no longer gluten free. So why do beans make people gassy? Beans make people gassy primarily because they are loaded with oligosaccharides (specifically raffinose) and high amounts of dietary fiber. The human digestive system lacks the specific enzyme required to break down these complex sugars in the stomach and small intestine. Because they remain mostly intact, they travel down to the large intestine where beneficial gut bacteria feast on them.

    Moving on, Doug and Dr. Ken discuss the primary start to good health, and the magic is about a healthy diet and exercise. Colorectal cancer is the 3rd most common cancer worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer-deaths. After initial treatment, people are advised to follow a healthy lifestyle in conjunction with further drug treatments to try and reduce the cancer of coming back. However, a new study found a structured exercise program could be more effective than drug treatments in preventing colon cancer recurring.

    Shifting focus to mangoes, something to know is they are a nutrient-dense tropical fruit packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, offering a wide array of health benefits, including promoting glowing skin, supporting heart health, and aiding digestion. What researchers are more recently finding, is that adding mangoes to your diet can significantly support postmenopausal health. Research shows that consuming about two servings (1.5 cups) daily can reduce systolic blood pressure, lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol, and improve blood sugar responses. They are also rich in antioxidants that help promote skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles.

    Then, a discussion linked to supplements linked to liver damage that have otherwise been considered healthy. Those in question are numeric, green tea, ashwagandha, red yeast rice, garcinia cambogia, black cohosh. Are the supplements generally bad for our health, or is it more about how they’re prepared or if they are synthetic as opposed to the truly healthier food-based supplements. The answer is simpler than one may suspect: food-based supplements will always be healthier than lab-created synthetic supplements.

    All this and more are part of today’s Good Day Health podcast with Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus.

  • Meat Isn't Bad For You When It's Quality Meat
    May 14 2026
    On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

    Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), shares a holistic perspective on health news today. Dr. Jack starts with a rise in injuries due to pickleball. Dr. Jack encourages his senior citizen patients to get more exercise, he’s also seeing them pick up new workout fads (ie pickleball) and just get out there without stretching or taking precautions to keep their body safe. This leads to rolled ankles, twisted knees, and more. On the topic of stretching, it’s not only something to be done before exercising or a morning walk. Stretch once you get out of bed.

    Shifting focus to food, Dr. Jack addresses a misconception that meat is bad for us. The reality is that most of the processed meats are unhealthy for us. These are animals that have been grain-fed and are loaded with hormones and antibiotics. Healthy meats are animals that have been able to graze, they are grass-fed in pastures in big fields, developing stronger bones and healthier meat, which gives us the concentrated form of what they have been eating.

  • Try Yoga For a Healthy Heart
    May 12 2026
    On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

    Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken begin with what yoga can do for your heart. Yoga improves heart health by lowering blood pressure, reducing stress, decreasing heart rate, and improving cholesterol levels, often as effectively as conventional exercise. Regular practice, including poses like Downward Dog and Tadasana (Mountain Pose), boosts circulation, reduces inflammation, and strengthens the cardiovascular system.

    Moving on to weight loss drugs, the weight-loss drug market is shifting toward oral, daily pills like Foundayo (orforglipron) and an oral version of Wegovy (semaglutide), following FDA approval in late 2025/early 2026. These new pills, which mimic GLP-1 hormones to curb appetite, saw over 170,000 prescriptions within three weeks of launch. Increased demand has led to a potential price war between major manufacturers Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, as well as a rise in state Medicaid coverage. Weight loss drugs like Wegovy and Ozempic (semaglutide) are showing significant health benefits beyond shedding pounds, including a 20% reduction in heart attacks and strokes, improved kidney health, and potential addiction reduction. These drugs, known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, act on the brain to reduce cravings and reduce inflammation.

    Next up, Doug and Dr. Ken address Lipoprotein(a), commonly referred to as ”L-P-little-A” and abbreviated as Lp(a), is a type of genetically inherited cholesterol particle that carries fat and cholesterol through the blood. High levels of Lp(a) significantly increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and aortic valve disease because the particles promote plaque buildup, inflammation, and blood clots in arteries Getting your Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] checked via blood test is crucial because it measures a highly genetic, "sticky" form of LDL cholesterol that standard lipid panels miss. High Lp(a) significantly increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and aortic valve stenosis, making it a critical, independent factor in assessing your overall cardiovascular health.

    In other news, research and studies on the effects of soccer in youth and why certain precautions need to be addressed. New reviews and studies in 2025 and 2026 indicate that frequent soccer heading is linked to measurable, long-term declines in brain structure and cognitive function, reinforcing the need for stricter rules to protect players from subconcussive injuries. Research has highlighted that repetitive, low-level impacts—not just overt concussions—damage white matter and that rule changes curbing headers are highly effective, prompting calls for broader implementation.

    Shifting focus, research shows adults experiencing weekly nightmares have up to a threefold higher risk of premature death (before age 70–75) and show signs of faster biological aging. This increased mortality is linked to chronic stress and accelerated cellular aging, potentially acting as a stronger risk factor than smoking or obesity. These nightmare events have your brain believing it’s real and triggering real stress responses in your body. A rare nightmare won’t effect health, but constant nightmares are something to be addressed.

  • The Rockefeller Influence on Medicine
    May 7 2026
    On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

    Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), shares a holistic perspective on health news today. Dr. Jack starts with a history lesson of how the medical world of today came to be the way it is, including how medical schools came to be and how they were funded at the beginning , as well as the Rockefeller influence on how medical schools began to be funded by pharmaceutical companies, and the curriculum began to change.

    Back to the Rockefeller influence, the Rockefeller family fundamentally shaped modern Western medicine in the early 20th century by funding allopathic (pharmaceutical-based) medicine while sidelining holistic practices. Through massive philanthropic investments, the Rockefeller Foundation and Institute for Medical Research established standardized, laboratory-based research, creating the framework for modern "Big Pharma" and specialized medical education.

    Dr. Jack’s job as a NUCCA Chiropractor is to remove torsion and tension on the brain stem, where it exits the skull and turns into the spinal cord. If you’re unfamiliar with what NUCCA chiropractic (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association) means, it is is a gentle, precise, non-invasive technique focusing on correcting the alignment between the head and neck (the atlas vertebra). It uses specialized x-rays to measure and correct spinal imbalances without any twisting, cracking, or popping, aiming to restore nervous system function and improve overall health Now, that’s only half of Dr. Jack’s job. The other half is to take care of his patients’ overall physiology. Whether it’s the nervous system, digestion, elimination, the immune system, the skeletal system, the cardiovascular system, and whatever else.

    Lastly, Doug joins Dr. Jack for a conversation addressing listener questions. Included is a focus on what we’ve learned from the Artemis astronauts, medically speaking. The Artemis astronauts provide critical data on deep-space health effects, revealing that, unlike low-Earth orbit, deep space increases risks from higher radiation and intense fluid shifts. Key findings include significant, rapid bone marrow changes, cardiovascular adaptation to microgravity (fluid shift to the head), increased vestibular disorientation upon reentry, and immune system weakening, which helps develop countermeasures for future Mars missions.

  • GERD, Gluten Intolerence, and Weight-Loss Drugs
    May 5 2026
    On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

    Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken begin with weight-loss drugs showing side benefits in the case of the epidemic of obesity also being linked to a rise in cancer cases. With these weight-loss drugs bringing obesity in patients down, it shows promise against certain cancers, especially breast cancer. This is good news. In other good news, there is a breakthrough in AI leading to capabilities of cancer treatments as well as antibiotic resistant infections.

    Shifting focus to GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease), there is a breakthrough with recent focus on novel, non-PPI medications and minimally invasive device therapies for treatment-refractory cases. Key advancements include Potassium-Competitive Acid Blockers (PCABs) like Vonoprazan, the magnetic LINX system to strengthen the esophagus, and new anti-pepsin treatments.

    Continuing on, Doug and Dr. Ken address a common misconception that gluten intolerance causes GERD. The reality is more of an association as opposed to cause and effect. People who have a gluten intolerance often also have GERD. People who have GERD likely have a gluten intolerance. They are located commonly in the same patients, but it doesn’t mean one caused the other.

    Next up, a focus on food coloring that comes from natural sources, specifically blue food coloring now coming from gardenia as opposed to the horrible dyes that tend to cause poor health and other conditions. This comes under Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s inspiration. Other things Kennedy is doing that is helping the American population is a focus on safe vaccines, as well as a CDC notification of COVID-19 now following a twice a year peak season.

    Lastly, Doug and Dr. Ken address listener questions, starting with semaglutide and other weight loss drugs, which originated as diabetes drugs, are showing to provide better limp protection than other diabetes drugs when it comes to diabetes effect on limbs and a common complication of patients needing amputation of affected limbs. Additionally, a conversation over the COVID-19 vaccine. All this and more on this episode of Good Day Health.

  • Pharmaceuticals and Cancer
    Apr 30 2026
    On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…

    Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), shares a holistic perspective on health news today. A primary focus is the current state of the medical world with a mindset of pharmaceuticals for anything and everything, as opposed to treating the illness with a preventative mindset.

    Dr. Jack looks at cancer as an example, with a thought that, perhaps, we’re looking in the wrong place for curing cancer. Cancer is a mega-business. According to Dr. Jack, more people are making their living off of cancer than there are cancer patients. More people are paying off their mortgage, car loans, student loans, their children's’ student loans from the cancer business than there are people actually suffering from cancer.

    When our body is on too many medications, it relies on those medications instead of relying on our immune systems. The focus on improving our immune system has been less in the focus as treating illness. The body constantly generates abnormal or damaged cells that have the potential to become cancer, but the immune system (especially T cells and natural killer cells) typically acts as a quality control mechanism to destroy them. This process, often called "immune surveillance," prevents these cells from growing into tumors. Being overmedicated hinders your body’s natural ability to fight.

    Then, Doug joins Dr. Jack to address listener questions, starting with the “grass-fed edge.” Grass-fed beef provides a significant nutritional edge over conventional, grain-fed beef due to its superior fatty acid profile, higher antioxidant levels, and lower overall fat content. Cattle that eat only grass and forage (grass-finished) produce meat that acts as a cleaner, more nutrient-dense protein source, offering benefits for heart health, weight management, and reduced inflammation.
