I cover controversial medical topics and the forgotten side of medicine.

Have you noticed that music and movies keep becoming more polished, yet it feels like something is missing?

Technology became remarkably good at removing imperfections. But those imperfections often carried the human presence that made the experience meaningful.

That same process is reshaping medicine and even our relationships.

Here I explore what we've lost, why it keeps happening, and what helps us reconnect with what's real:

What they tell us about acid reflux is a lie. Did you know:

- Low stomach acid (not high) causes reflux

- It also causes many autoimmune disorders

- Acid meds hence cause a LOT of problems such as osteoporosis

Here I show how to naturally cure heartburn: midwesterndoctor.com/p/stomach-acidโ€ฆ

America spends $111 billion a year on childbirth, yet has the highest maternal mortality rate among wealthy nations.

One overlooked problem is that routine interventions can create complications that require still more interventions.

Here I explain how this happens, the risks of common birthing practices, and what parents can do before entering the delivery room.

Patients declared โ€œbrain deadโ€ have woken up right before their organs could be harvested.

Others report receiving something they never expected with a transplant: their donorโ€™s memories, personality, even sexual preferences.

Here I explore what weโ€™re rarely told about organ transplants:

They trusted the medical system enough to get the COVID vaccine. When their health began to unravel, they still trusted it enough to ask for help.

The CDCโ€™s own records contain their pleas: worsening symptoms, fear they were dying, and repeated requests for someone to call them back.

Some kept writing for months, saying no one ever did.

These messages show what it feels like to be abandoned by the very system you trusted to protect you.

Poor sleep causes many serious diseases.

Did you know:
โ€ข Sleeping pills disrupt healthy sleep, making you 2-5X more likely to die
โ€ข The FDA created a media hysteria to ban the one safe sleep aid that works

Here I show what they don't tell us about sleep:

What if your home suddenly stopped being a place where you could rest?

People living near data centers are reporting headaches, sleepless nights, constant vibration, and more, even inside their homes.

I took a look into what could be causing this. One overlooked concern is the โ€œdirty electricityโ€ these facilities send back onto the grid.

Here I explain what that means and what could be done about it: midwesterndoctor.com/p/what-is-makiโ€ฆ

In a 7,447-person trial, adding extra virgin olive oil to a Mediterranean diet cut heart attacks and strokes by 30% and diabetes by 40%.

Yet two "extra virgin" bottles can differ ten-fold in the compounds that do this, and testing reveals the bigger problem isn't fake oil, it's oil that went stale before it ever reached the shelf.

Fresh oil is rich in oleocanthal, which blocks the same enzymes as ibuprofen (it's what makes good oil sting your throat). Rubbed on arthritic knees, olive oil relieved pain better than an NSAID gel.

Here I show how to tell fresh oil from stale, the brands I trust, and why it holds up to cooking better than the oils promoted in its place:

During COVID, hospitals were financially rewarded for using remdesivir and ventilators while families had to fight in court to get an alternative treatment tried.

Even when their loved ones were expected to die.

COVID exposed a much older problem in medicine: hospitals are rewarded for following protocols that can work against the patient.

Here I explain how that happens, and what families need to know before someone they love is hospitalized.

Most people check the ingredients in their food. But what about the light bulbs in their homes?

As the days shorten, we spend more time under artificial light. Yet most people choose their lighting without considering what it means for their health.

Here I explore the forgotten research on natural and artificial light, why the differences extend far beyond vitamin D, and what deserves a closer look in your own home:

Severe brain fog, psychiatric illness and accelerated dementia are some of the saddest but most common vaccine injuries I see - especially since no one believes them.

The data now proves the vaccines double the rates of these conditions.

YouTuber Dan Schaeffer says he โ€œcompletely clearedโ€ his sinuses with a nasal spray containing DMSO, purified water, and colloidal silver.

โ€œNo pressure, no nothing.โ€

DMSO has been studied for sinus problems since the 1960s, but few people know about it. Thankfully that is changing and more people are finding the relief they've been seeking.

I dug into the research and reports from readers who are still struggling after surgery.

RFK Jr. told Dr. Phil why we have no idea how safe our vaccines are.

Vaccines skip much of the safety testing other drugs must go through before they're licensed. We were told a surveillance system would catch any problems afterward. But the reporting system they built captures fewer than 1% of vaccine injuries.

That figure is from the government's own 2010 study. And when a better system was built and tested, it found serious injuries in 1 of every 40 recipients. So it was shelved.

Joe Rogan was asked a simple question: if you survive a heart attack and take a statin for 5 years, how much longer will you live?

He guessed a few years.

Dr. Aseem Malhotra gave him the number that comes straight from the statin trials themselves. On average, the answer is just over four days.

Four days is just the start. Here's what they never tell you about statins:

In 1983, America's biggest daytime talk show did something that's never happened since.

It spent an hour on a live debate on the DPT shot and vaccine mandates. Injured kids were in the studio, and the host asked what no host would dare ask today:

"Why does it have to be a law? Should we have the freedom to decide?"

In 2006, the evening news told America something the CDC never wanted you to hear:

Over 20 years, seniors' flu shot rates more than quadrupled. Their flu deaths didn't fall. They kept climbing.

And when reporters asked to interview the government scientist behind the study, the NIH said no.

86.7% of basal cell skin cancers disappeared in 8 weeks using a cheap mix of vitamin C and DMSO.

The standard prescription cream cleared 57.1%, with more side effects.

Jimmy Dore asked the obvious question: why has no doctor mentioned this? His guest answered in one sentence: "You can't patent DMSO, and you can't patent vitamin C."

And DMSO makes far more than vitamin C work better.

In 1992, a TV talk show let parents describe what happened after their 4-month-old twins got routine shots.

The next day, the babysitter called in a panic: Matthew had stopped breathing, "get here as quickly as you can."

Matthew died that same day. His surviving twin had gotten a different vaccine lot.

โ€œIt could helpโ€ is not enough information to decide whether or not to take a treatment.

How likely is the benefit? How much would it improve your life? What is the chance of harm, and how serious could that harm be?

A dramatic benefit that rarely happens and a modest benefit that happens often are very different propositions.

Yet medical decisions are too often reduced to whether something is approved or recommended.

Here I explain the calculation behind those questions, how misleading probabilities distort our choices, and why the answer must account for the person receiving the treatment:

SARS escaped from laboratories years before the debates over COVID's origins. And some of those incidents led to infections beyond laboratory workers.

The danger of studying infectious pathogens was already a subject of scientific concern long before it became a political one.

When research is justified as protection against future outbreaks, its own potential to cause an outbreak belongs in the calculation.

Here I collect the earlier incidents and warnings, and examine the incentives that keep dangerous research moving forward:
