Welcome to Integrated You Radio, hosted by Dr. Nick Carruthers and Dr. Nicole Rivera. This podcast is a gateway to limitless possibilities in health and wellness.  In this episode, Dr. Nick and Dr. Nicole delve into the fascinating world of DNA and its connection to sound and light. They emphasize that while four percent of our DNA codes for proteins, a significant portion, ranging from ninety to ninety-five percent, is dedicated to sound and light receptors.  DNA operates within the realm of quantum mechanics, governed by quantum physics rather than classical Newtonian physics. Understanding this concept reveals that most of our body, approximately ninety-nine percent, is influenced by quantum physics. This knowledge opens doors to non-physical treatments and services that align with the principles of "like attracts like" and "like heals like," as seen in homeopathy.

Since your tonsils are your lymphatic organs and your veins are in charge of dumping toxins into your neck's lymphatic system as part of your brain's detoxification process, having your tonsils removed results in inflammation caused by the toxins. In this episode, Dr. Nicole will discuss ways to address the underlying causes, go in-depth to avoid wasting time, and share her experience with a recent emotional detox. Fun Fact: Sometimes your neck issues are related to your spine or lymphatic irritation.  We also have sinuses in our faces and brains, which are a part of the venous system that aids in the detoxification of our brains. Through deodorants, dental work, etc., people are directly getting exposed to harmful toxins. You do have a blood-brain barrier, but a number of things can, regrettably, interfere with it. We'll be delving further into the topic of how dental problems and sinuses affect our thyroid, parathyroid, and breast health on this week's episode of Integrative Wellness Radio. What you’ll lear

There are many people who are easily wounded, but you are more susceptible to weakness, trauma, or prolapse because of glyphosate-induced collagen weakening.

Most people post-retirement have their doctor on speed dial due to their laundry list of prescriptions or, worse, cooped up in hospital beds. After spending most of their lives hustling and earning wealth to get their time under the breezy palm trees, the stress was at the cost of their health. Inside The Episode: Apart from reduced free time and lowered creativity and productivity, the stress from working too hard significantly affects us.
