A viewer asks: “Would I benefit from taking Primal X Plus, sold by Primal Force, for activating stem cells to counter aging, or am I benefiting already from taking most of the ingredients in other supplements in my regimen, except for adiponectin from bovine bone marrow? Would that deficiency be compensated for by taking cacao powder, which you have said will also stimulate stem cell activity for tissue replacement and rejuvenation?”

A viewer asks: “In his 1970s book, Medical Nemesis, Ivan Illich suggests medicine isn’t the primary reason people survive illness; sanitation, nutrition, and housing matter more. He goes on to say over-treatment and exaggeration of disease are widespread, that healthcare fosters dependency, and that illness is seen as unacceptable. Healthcare often operates less for the benefit of patients and more to serve political, social, or bureaucratic interests – public image, economic concerns, or voter approval over medical advice. His views jarred badly with me. Is it right to say, in 2026, that people avoid confronting mortality and that modern healthcare is more about socio-political optics than illnesses?”

A viewer asks: “An overlooked aspect of modern medicine is perhaps that now normal human experiences—such as minor stress, aging, ‘high’ blood pressure, ‘high’ cholesterol, or childbirth—are labeled as medical problems that require professional intervention. Society has arguably become increasingly dependent on doctors and healthcare institutions, losing confidence in self-care and mutual support. Medical institutions now dictate social norms, defining what is ‘normal’ or ‘deviant,’ and expanding their authority into everyday life. Is this intended to weaken society’s resilience, creating a population that depends on the medical system for a ‘pharmaceutical invasion’ and even the conception of who is ‘ill?'”

A viewer asks: “Are contact lenses generally safe, or are there inherent risks to be aware of? If there are risks, how can they be mitigated?”

A viewer asks: “I have been wearing glasses since I was young. I suspect I actually didn’t need them, but it was foisted on me due to a concerned family friend who raised the alarm to my parents when I complained of not being able to see the blackboard from the back of the classroom. I think this was a temporary fluctuation in vision acuity, but the glasses themselves paralyze eye muscles and lock in bad vision. First of all, is my theory correct that the glasses themselves deteriorated my eyesight to the point of a vicious cycle of dependency?” What can we tell him?

A viewer asks: “Glasses and contact lenses are a nuisance to me. I am athletic and they get in the way. I have rejected LASIK eye surgery until now due to the risks. However, recently, I have been thinking more about it. It would be liberating not to have to depend on glasses or contacts anymore. I think it would make me more resilient physically, especially considering the tough times ahead, as well as protect me from the risk of not having my glasses on hand (they can break, too) or running out of contact lenses. I also get uncomfortable with glasses and contacts, and sometimes get headaches. They sure do get in the way of fun as well. And I spend a lot of time in front of the computer, and again, vision correction causes extra strain. I know several people that have done the surgery and they report no problems years after. But there are also lots of warnings about risks, such as blurry vision and regression after some time. Overall, I know the divine realm is not in favor of surgery. Considering that we need to be in top form with minimal obstacles to effectiveness for the mission, and considering that I am also supported by the protocols to mitigate risks, would it be best for me to do this procedure? Or are there serious risks that could become a net negative and is it best to continue relying on glasses/contact lenses?” What can we tell him?

A study was reported in 2004 of people with advanced coronary artery disease who started taking just 50 ml of pomegranate juice daily. At the end of 1 year, control subjects taking a placebo showed a further 9% increase of coronary artery media-intima thickening. Those on pomegranate juice, had up to a 30% decrease [M. Aviram, et al., Pomegranate juice consumption for 3 years by patients with carotid artery stenosis reduces common carotid intima-media thickness, blood pressure and LDL oxidation. Clin Nutr. 2004 Jun;23(3):423-33]. Were these findings truly reflecting an important therapeutic benefit of a simple, widely available nutraceutical? Is there anything sinister about the limited follow-up by the medical community?

A viewer asks: “As a more convenient, and actually less costly, alternative to buying and cooking liver once a week to get enough vitamin A in addition to what is in the eggs I eat, is it safe and adequate to take either a serving of Primal Being Grassfed Beef Liver – 3000mg Freeze Dried Capsules, or an equivalent 3000 mg of Wholesome Wellness Grass Fed Desiccated Beef Liver Capsules, if they are equivalent sources of quality vitamin A?”

Dr. Al Sears wrote in a newsletter that “Synthetic, lab-created, vitamin A can build up to toxic levels and damage your liver. They’re sold as retinyl palmitate and they’re made by combining an ester of retinol with synthesized palmitic acid.” Is he correct that retinyl palmitate-containing supplements should be avoided?
