      I've seen a few videos of interviews with Dr. Bright. One thing she doesn't clarify is if one is taking say Armour Thyroid meds for Hashimoto's can you STILL supplement with 5% or two drops of Legos Iodine?

      I was supposedly asthmatic from an exposure to smoke. But it was labeled sports asthma, not the true asthma. And I believe it was due to all the other health issues going on with my thyroid and gut health issues. The root cause was probably the imbalance of my system.

      Yeah, Dr Ken Berry, who advocates for eating very low carb and plenty of good animal fats & protein has been saying for several years that illness is not from a lack of pills in the diet. He should be the surgeon general of the U.S. along with other intelligent doctors like this one speaking here. They aren't in the pocket of big pharma & big food!

    I have Dr Bright's book on girls. I'd say the last chapter was the most important, as a mother of a now 12 year old girl. (today is her 12th birthday 😢😊) I feel good as a mom that she hasn't started her cycle yet, isn't on any meds and is a happy young girl turning SLOWLY into a young woman. I credit her carnivore lifestyle and being homeschooled for this. She doesn't eat a bunch of crap but not having the stress and pressures that school offers allows her to grow and develop naturally.

    As a young teen I did not get my period until is was 15 then not after that, I was given "pills" to start it at 16, did not even develop breasts at 17. Went to Dr, he said "thin is in". This did not help a girl struggling to be accepted by society. I was only 90# in high school, not from starving myself but undiagnosed celiac(diagnosed at age 30). Fast forward I had my genes done 3 years ago and found out I was estrogen resistant which is why I did not develop properly, and having problems going through menopause with estrogen resistance. I appreciate Dr Bright's knowledge and trying to tell my daughters her information for my 7 granddaughters who are all under 11

    My granddaughter is on a depression pill and now because of painful periods and bleeding very heavy wants to put her on the pill she's 16. She eats like crap and doesn't listen to a word I say. She also has the MTHFR gene. I requested blood work before her doctor puts her on anything else like ALL of the thyroid tests. I'm sure she will be going on the pill because she told me she isn't going to stop how she eats. It's very frustrating and sad.

    The biggest medical misnomer is that serotonin is the "happy hormone". When you look at the research it has more to do with digestion and our immunity and very little to do with mood but majority of people have been misinformed on this for a long time, including myself.

    Wow this is eye opening! I suffered with childhood eczema and also had a pretty rough beginning with a lot of stress throughout my earlier years. Parents weren’t present, tossed from family members then eventually foster care when my grandmother was too elderly..Eczema was “just one of those things” I hated about myself..Eczema went away when I started keto several years ago & stays away as long as I avoid grains completely, even the smallest amount of wheat will show up on my upper arms within a couple of days

      Meat and butter and that's all😂
      People surely are prescribed too many drugs but some drugs are needed for some disease.
      I think there are detoxifying protocols based on natural supplements.
      I wouldn't cut all meds cold turkey.
      There was a reason if people asked for medical help.
      There is often the case where people are not prescribed needed drugs.
      It much depends on doctors. They all have different vision. We're in a mess.

      Why did it stop working for you? Did it really made your depression go away?
      I tried it and could not keep it because I don't really like the taste of meat and butter. Honestly it made me nauseous and sad because of lack of good taste, no matter how many recipes. It stopped hunger for a short time then hunger came back and I could not take any more butter in as a snack 🤮
      It's such a boring diet, very extreme.
      I enjoy some variety and a few veggies, even on a very low-carb diet.

      Also, you guys dont take birth control pills/devices that ruin your body/brains with their fake chemicals.

    🫁 She’s right about low cortisol but with your son’s age being what it is I don’t think it’s a low cortisol issue: when an individual is having an asthma attack, it’s the lungs cleansing and healing. When that “attack” ( scary but not actually dangerous like we’ve been led to believe) hits you need to let it run its course. When it’s done is because that lung has healed. Asthma becomes dangerous when you take drugs aka more toxins into the lungs to stop the healing process. When you keep doing that eventually an asthma will become fetal because you now have so much damaged lung tissue and will suffocate. Bright is confusing air hunger from low cortisol with actual asthma. Raw a2 dairy and letting my son actually go through the healing process is what healed him. The body makes no mistakes. It’s simple. Run a saliva cortisol with waking response on the kid and you’ll see. 🤦‍♀️ the lungs are NOT overreacting. Sad this is what’s still pushed. The body makes NO mistakes only we do. Autoimmune is just rogue 😮omg NO it’s not. It’s a toxicity issue
