Latest / UK Column Radio / Jerm Warfare - Ian Brighthope on the importance of holistic medicine
Transcript
- 0:39Prof in Bright, hope you have such an uplifting surname.
- 0:43Thank you. The patients used to like it,
- 0:47the patients who said feel better already.
- 0:52Look, let's go back a few years. I mean, we're in, we're coming
- 0:56to the end of 2025. And many would say, but the
- 1:00COVID narrative, that doesn't matter anymore.
- 1:03I would disagree. I would say that it's still a
- 1:04very, very important issue because it's become a
- 1:07placeholder for for a lot of other talking points.
- 1:10But if we go back to 2019, just before everything started, would
- 1:16you go back there or do you prefer where we are now?
- 1:20Look, I'm, I'm happy to go back to pre AIDS days because this
- 1:26whole business of medicine, healthcare, viruses, etcetera,
- 1:31goes back a long time. And my experience, it was very
- 1:39different as an undergraduate medical student.
- 1:42I took a completely different view of medicine and I knew what
- 1:47was going on or I had an idea about what was going on back in
- 1:53the late 1960s and early 1970s with regard to to the training
- 2:01of doctors, because I trained in agricultural science before I
- 2:04did medicine and I did research in animal nutrition and studying
- 2:11medicine. The first three years of pure
- 2:13science was fantastic, but then the clinical years, the science
- 2:18went out the door. I mean, I couldn't understand
- 2:20why people have been diagnosed with depression or manic
- 2:23depression or bipolar disease or schizophrenia when they looked
- 2:27so unhealthy physically. Couldn't understand what heart
- 2:32failure was when basically it's retention of fluid and using
- 2:39diuretics and drugs to slow the heart down.
- 2:44It a lot of a lot of things just didn't make sense to me.
- 2:46And then when I was doing oncology as an undergraduate, I
- 2:52asked the Prof about the patient in the bed who was an old lady
- 2:56with cancer and being fed salt and sugar through her veins and
- 3:01Jelly and ice cream for a dinner.
- 3:04And I've said this story many times.
- 3:07I just couldn't believe if she was an animal, she especially an
- 3:11animal worth any money, we'd be pumping her full of amino acids
- 3:15and vitamins and minerals, but she was being starved to death
- 3:20as far as I was concerned. And I said, I can't be a doctor
- 3:23like this any, you know, I'm not going to be a doctor like that.
- 3:26And so I started travelling around the world looking at
- 3:29alternative healthcare systems and and medical systems and came
- 3:34to the conclusion that it was all wrong.
- 3:35I learned about allergy, I learned about food allergy,
- 3:41chemical sensitivities, all of these things that we weren't
- 3:44taught about in medical school. So I adopted an approach to
- 3:49natural therapists and chiropractors, homeopaths,
- 3:54traditional Chinese medicine. And it was a great awakening
- 3:58that we were completely blindfolded and brainwashed as
- 4:05undergraduate students. And this is going back into the
- 4:07late 1960s, early 1970s. Jeremy.
- 4:13Sorry I'm jumping in here, but it's interesting that you that
- 4:18you say this. A few of my guests have said the
- 4:19same thing as as you have. And if you had asked me a few
- 4:23years ago to say something positive about natural medicine
- 4:27or whatever, I would have, you know, laughed it off.
- 4:30Of course, that's all changed and I now see a lot of a lot of
- 4:34that stuff is ahead of the curve.
- 4:36But why you Why did you pick up on something that your peers
- 4:43didn't? Well, I still see my peers from
- 4:49my year when we graduated in 1974 every few months.
- 4:54They're still not really awake to what's been going on.
- 4:57They're they're older guys. I mean, they're not as old as I
- 4:59am, but they're in their mid 70s and they still don't realise
- 5:05that they've been conned. Even coming through COVID.
- 5:10They all took the jabs, They're all suffering from the jabs,
- 5:14they're all unwell and of course they're retired now.
- 5:20They've seen their colleagues die, get sick from the jabs, but
- 5:26they can't join the dots or they won't accept it.
- 5:29It's a willful why, though? That's.
- 5:30Yeah, that's what I'm asking. Why?
- 5:32Why are some of us able to do that and others not, do you
- 5:36think? I think, you know, going
- 5:38through, going through medicine and, and, and, and doing all of
- 5:42the things from surgery to psychiatry, acute interventive
- 5:48medicine, all of this, you start to see people who ask questions,
- 5:55some ask the right questions, some ask the wrong questions and
- 6:00get themselves into trouble. And I think it's asking the
- 6:03wrong questions which is most important, the wrong questions
- 6:07of the wrong people at the right time.
- 6:10And I was really in my undergraduate years laughed at
- 6:16for my ideas, but I still, you know, passed and, and did the
- 6:22usual orthodox training in all of the areas.
- 6:26And I loved intensive care, I loved acute medicine,
- 6:30cardiology, anaesthetics, did it all.
- 6:36But there was always something missing and patients not getting
- 6:40better. And so during the travels, I
- 6:43came back to Australia after starting immunology in Canada
- 6:49and the immunology was basically all laboratory work with very
- 6:52little in the way of seeing patients getting better.
- 6:56And I decided that I would go into allergy, that took me into
- 7:01food allergy that took me into people suffering from
- 7:05deficiencies, that took me into patients into hospital finding
- 7:09out what they were reacting to it.
- 7:11It took me into looking at diabetics, for example, and
- 7:16people with type 2, even type 1 diabetes on insulin, putting
- 7:20them into hospital, fasting, them, cleaning out their bowel
- 7:25from all of the rubbish. And this is going back into the
- 7:271970s before anybody ever spoke about the microbiome.
- 7:33You know, I was giving them powdered probiotics back then.
- 7:39And I was being accused of trying to kill my patients with
- 7:42bacteria. I was accused of trying to kill
- 7:44my patients with high doses of intravenous vitamin C, accused
- 7:47of a lot of things. And the the patients were
- 7:52getting better. We were reversing a lot of these
- 7:54diseases. Psychiatric patients would get
- 7:57better. We now know that you can give us
- 8:01psychiatric patients a fecal transplant and they they may
- 8:04throw their, may even throw their drugs away.
- 8:08So we're learning, we've learnt a lot and we're learning a heck
- 8:11of a lot since COVID because of a different mindset amongst my
- 8:17colleagues. Even, excuse me, even the my
- 8:22colleagues in oncology and intensive care are starting to
- 8:26look at what's been happening with COVID, the virus and the
- 8:29vaccines and in particular those who were dying in intensive care
- 8:33and surviving if they were given repurposed drugs like ivermectin
- 8:37and hydroxychloroquine. But we did a study, We've been
- 8:42using vitamin CD and zinc for 51 years since I graduated.
- 8:49I'm recommending it during every winter whenever there's a
- 8:52pandemic, an epidemic, so-called of, of influenza and patients
- 8:58who had high levels of vitamin D&C and zinc in their systems
- 9:02may have got the virus, but they never got seriously ill.
- 9:04Most of them never even got symptoms.
- 9:07And, and this is well, people think, oh, it's magic.
- 9:12It's not when you understand what these nutrients do to the
- 9:15immune system. Why me?
- 9:20Well, I was, I guess, and still am, a bit of a rebel thinker.
- 9:29Yes, that's the pattern, yeah. I've got a fire in my belly
- 9:33still and I don't know when it's going to go out mate, you know
- 9:39when, when. Does God bless you?
- 9:42Yeah, God bless you for that. Because we need more, more
- 9:44people like you. But I mean, you mentioned
- 9:50earlier going back to before the AIDS thing.
- 9:54Why then? Well, I was dissatisfied with
- 10:02what I learned, so I started practicing and I looked at all
- 10:06of the literature around. But hold on.
- 10:09Sorry, sorry, sorry. I'm jumping in when you say you
- 10:11were dissatisfied with what you learned.
- 10:12What? What does that mean?
- 10:14Well, it means that what I learned was not enough.
- 10:18We did 4 hours of nutrition in a six year medical course and that
- 10:23four hours is basically just telling us what proteins, fats,
- 10:25carbohydrates were and and that vitamins and minerals were just
- 10:29part of of our food intake. There were, you know, I did more
- 10:33when I studied agricultural science.
- 10:37I learnt more about, for example, take trace element like
- 10:40selenium, for example, selenium deficiencies.
- 10:43And we did a, we did a project on selenium deficiency producing
- 10:46white muscle disease in cattle and sheep.
- 10:49Now white muscle disease results in white muscles, white meat,
- 10:52which is, you know, valuable in, in restaurants that want white
- 10:55meat feel. But the, the animals end up with
- 10:59cardiomyopathies. Huge hearts.
- 11:02And we talk about idiopathic cardiomyopathy in medicine,
- 11:05idiopathic meaning we don't know what the cause is.
- 11:09And I'm, I'm being facetious and sometimes idiopathic means
- 11:12pathology for idiots, but it's it's unknown cause.
- 11:18And when you see patients with cardiomyopathy and of the
- 11:22selenium deficiency and you supplement them with selenium
- 11:26and other cardiac nutrients, they can come down or off their
- 11:31anti heart failure medication. And I've saved at least two out
- 11:38of three patients who are on the cardio cardiac transplant list
- 11:43for a cardiac heart transplant. And I paid due recognition to
- 11:50your brilliant surgeon in South Africa, Christian Barnard, who
- 11:58was the 1st to do a successful heart transplant.
- 12:02But we don't need to do that, Jeremy.
- 12:04We can prevent that. We can improve patient's
- 12:06well-being and health if we had a better Wellness and healthcare
- 12:12system. Ian, diet and nutrition is
- 12:18something that I'm very interested in.
- 12:20I, I could talk about it every day and I don't know what your
- 12:25position is. I'm quite good friends with a
- 12:28sports scientist, Prof Tim Noakes.
- 12:31And he, he, he, he is very passionate about getting,
- 12:36getting our nutritional intake right.
- 12:39And so he argues very much about sort of low carbohydrate diets
- 12:42and, and he's very big on sort of diabetes and, and, and, and
- 12:47insulin being, you know, these are, these are important,
- 12:50important things to look at. Do you generally consider diet
- 12:58and nutrition as sort of foundational to to to
- 13:02well-being? It, it absolutely is, Jeremy,
- 13:08absolutely fundamental. If we don't get the basic
- 13:11building blocks right, the biochemistry of the system,
- 13:14whether it be the biochemistry of the genes, the chromosomes,
- 13:17the division of cells, the oxygenation of tissues, the
- 13:20operation of the mitochondria, the respirations, the heartbeat,
- 13:25the functioning of the central nervous system, the, the
- 13:27transmission of impulses from brain to from nerve to muscle,
- 13:31etcetera. None of them work very well at
- 13:34all. So we've got to get the basic
- 13:36building blocks right. And, and you're quite right,
- 13:39nutrition is, is absolutely 100% essential.
- 13:43That's why we started the College of Nutritional Medicine.
- 13:46And we added on to that the College of Nutritional and
- 13:48Environmental Medicine, which has been going for 45 years in
- 13:51this country now, training doctors in, in the areas of
- 13:56integrative medicine, integrating into mainstream
- 13:58medicine. The, the, the zones, the blue
- 14:01zones around the world where people live the longest.
- 14:04It's the diets are so similar and so critical and provide all
- 14:10the basic serious nutrients for their well-being.
- 14:13That's also family and social connectivity is very, very
- 14:18important is and so is movement, not just not stupid exercise,
- 14:23but movement and simple movements like Tai chi, Ji gong,
- 14:28yoga, walking, all of this working in the garden, doing
- 14:34housework, activity is all very important.
- 14:39And the emphasis on is on family as well.
- 14:42And I think we miss out on this in, in in Western society,
- 14:47industrialized societies to some extent.
- 14:49And we've got to try and bring it back.
- 14:52But if you have a deficiency of iron, for example, and you don't
- 14:57have anemia as a result, but just a deficiency of iron, you
- 15:01can feel tired. And if you retire and you want
- 15:04to achieve something and you've got to achieve something, it
- 15:07creates an anxiety. And if that becomes a chronic
- 15:10anxiety, that iron deficiency can result in a depression.
- 15:15You know, it's it's I'm simplifying it as much as I
- 15:20possibly can, but single nutrient deficiencies and single
- 15:24nutrient studies are very, very important to take ignitance off.
- 15:27But once you've got one deficiency, it doesn't take long
- 15:30before you develop other deficiencies and or stress on
- 15:34your body's biochemistry. Snowball.
- 15:37Yeah, absolutely. I mean, they're talking now
- 15:40about autism in in the US and they're blaming paracetamol for
- 15:45it. Acetaminophen.
- 15:47Well, it does play a role. Acetaminophen is toxic to the
- 15:51liver. It's toxic to the baby.
- 15:53And we know that mothers who've consumed too much acetamol,
- 15:57paracetamol during pregnancy can end up with children who are
- 16:00highly allergic with asthma, etcetera, but also autism.
- 16:05But now when you're looking at what what causes of autism are,
- 16:08I don't mind saying that I'm a very, very ardent anti vaxxer
- 16:12because I don't think we need vaccines at all.
- 16:15And I don't. I hope you don't mind me saying
- 16:17that on. Your show?
- 16:18No, I'm, I'm the same, OK. And, and there's good reason for
- 16:22it. The first, the first day of
- 16:24life, most infants in this country receive an injection of
- 16:28aluminium and aluminium is highly toxic to the central
- 16:30nervous system. And no matter how much the
- 16:33chemists and the the physicians argue that it's below a certain
- 16:38level, they don't. It take doesn't take too many
- 16:41millions of molecules in one shot to actually have an adverse
- 16:44effect on a few neurons and you have an adverse effect on a few
- 16:47neurons and that is a stable effect as well.
- 16:51So I mean. For sorry for jumping in but for
- 16:54what it's worth when my son was born my wife attempted a a home
- 16:59birth and it became there were a few complications so we ended up
- 17:04going to the hospital but I told them he gets no injections
- 17:09nothing not even vitamin K and he is super healthy today.
- 17:14Yeah, well, I don't know how old you are, but you, you look
- 17:19pretty young to me. I think you you're, you're one
- 17:23of a out of a out-of-the-box still regarding the generations.
- 17:29More and more people are waking up to this.
- 17:31I mean, the same with my children.
- 17:33I were born in the in the early 1990s and I had them fairly late
- 17:38in in life. They are both extremely healthy.
- 17:42They've never needed antibiotics, They've never had
- 17:44an injection of a vaccine. And they, they are well, my son
- 17:52was a elite athlete and my daughter is just so fit and
- 17:58healthy. You know, these are the children
- 18:01who don't go to the hospital and they're doctors over vaccinated
- 18:04kids that are the sickest in the in the societies.
- 18:09Something that doesn't make sense to me in is if you just
- 18:12take a moment, just think about it for a second, right?
- 18:15How have humans survived for however long, right?
- 18:1910s of thousands of years, whatever.
- 18:21And only in the last 200 years have they needed an injection
- 18:26that's intramuscular in the arm for improved health.
- 18:29It doesn't make any sense. No, Jeremy, it doesn't make any
- 18:35sense to those of us who asked the right questions.
- 18:38In fact, we don't need most of the, the drugs that we use.
- 18:44You know, we, we have developed to an extent where we are so
- 18:50clever that we can actually create genes, artificial genes,
- 18:54and inject them into living beings that have never, ever
- 18:58been exposed to these genes and proteins before.
- 19:01And we have a serious problem with that.
- 19:04But in, in, in nature, we, we, we would die from malnutrition,
- 19:10We could die from an infection, we could die from an animal
- 19:12attacking us, or we could die in war.
- 19:14You know, the four dreaded horsemen of the apocalypse come
- 19:16along. Famine, pest, pestilence, hunger
- 19:20and and death, of course. But the Grim Reaper is always
- 19:25going to be there for us. We can delay our delivery to the
- 19:29Grim Reaper by living a wholesome life, staying away
- 19:33from drugs, just eating foods that are unprocessed.
- 19:38If you see something in a packet, tin can or bottle, it's
- 19:41being processed. If you can identify the food,
- 19:44then that's the food that you should be eating.
- 19:46And if you can identify its provenance, then you know where
- 19:50it's come from, You know whether it's been adulterated in any
- 19:54way. And that's where we should be
- 19:57heading. And that's where I'm trying to
- 19:59with our education programs here, teach our doctors and our
- 20:03nurses and the public through our various organisations in
- 20:07Australia. To adopt A more wholesome,
- 20:10healthy, holistic lifestyle. And there there's a big swing
- 20:17towards that. I hope we, we can achieve that
- 20:22and the digital identity and CBDC's don't come and destroy
- 20:28everything that man has evolved with because you and I'm sure
- 20:33your viewers will be appreciative of the digital ID
- 20:38and the CBDC's and the trap in the prison that that will put us
- 20:42all into. And we will only be getting food
- 20:46that they who are controlling us want us to have and the fuel,
- 20:51the ability to travel, etcetera. And we will be injected with
- 20:55vaccines, so-called vaccines as frequently as they believe it's
- 20:59necessary. So the I've been anti pharma,
- 21:05big pharma all my life and I employed when I had clinics and,
- 21:11and, and manufacturing various natural remedies a long time
- 21:17ago. I employed people from big
- 21:18pharma who told me, these are marketing people from big pharma
- 21:22who told me what they do, you know, so from a vaccine company,
- 21:27a very well known Australian vaccine manufacturer, putting
- 21:30out a vaccine they knew didn't work, that they knew would cause
- 21:34adverse reactions, that they knew would make children sick.
- 21:38Another, another group of big three big pharma companies came
- 21:44together to can the whole idea of a naturally occurring
- 21:49antidepressant when St. John's wort was shown to be very
- 21:52effective against mild, moderate and severe depression.
- 21:55They they came out with a campaign because the three
- 21:58companies manufactured different antidepressants.
- 22:01They didn't want the natural antidepressant to succeed.
- 22:05You know, I ended, I, I gave high doses of intravenous
- 22:09vitamin C to, to seriously ill patients with viral and
- 22:14bacterial infections. And then with the advent of the
- 22:18HIV virus, I was giving it to the, to the, the AIDS patients,
- 22:22some coming to me from Europe, some coming to me from the US
- 22:26for treatment. And when I wrote a book about it
- 22:30and had it endorsed by Doctor Lynas Pauling, the promoter of
- 22:36Vitamin CI ended up being before the medical board to be struck
- 22:43off. And an appeal to the Supreme
- 22:47Court here in Vic was successful and I won my case, which meant
- 22:55after that, what I was doing, I was basically cleared of.
- 23:00And we created a safe environment for doctors for
- 23:03many, many a couple of decades to practice integrative
- 23:06nutritional and environmental medicine.
- 23:08But with COVID, all the doctors were made so fearful of saying
- 23:14anything, not giving it, not allowed to give it full and free
- 23:17and informed consent to patients about this toxic injection that
- 23:24they're all meant to give. And they're still fearful, still
- 23:28fearful, although with some of the some of the conferences that
- 23:36we're having now, I get up and tell them you be bold, you be
- 23:41courageous, you practice what you think is good scientific
- 23:44medicine and health care and stand up against the
- 23:48authorities. And to some extent that's that's
- 23:52happening here in Australia, which is, which is good Jeremy,
- 23:56because it's badly needed. If I were to ask you to give me
- 24:03your shtick, your give me your model of health and well-being
- 24:09in a in a way that's easily digestible, what would it be?
- 24:14And you've come to to see me as a patient.
- 24:19I don't ask you a couple of questions.
- 24:22Do you want to get better? Do you want to stay well?
- 24:24Do you want to live a long and healthy life?
- 24:26And if you answer yes to all of that, then I take you through a
- 24:29journey of what you do need to consider.
- 24:33And the first thing you need to consider is what's going on up
- 24:35here. It's so important what's going
- 24:39on up here. And I say you create yourself 10
- 24:43affirmations and repeat those affirmations out loud to
- 24:46yourself every day. And while you're doing that,
- 24:50just make some changes, slight changes to your diet and take a
- 24:54few supplements. If you're feeling unwell for
- 24:58whatever reason, we'll work out what the unwellness is, whether
- 25:01it's cancer or heart disease or whatever.
- 25:03But what I want you to do is to drink more clean water.
- 25:07Eat unprocessed food, no sugar, white flour products, alcohol,
- 25:13reduce, tea, coffee, chocolate's OK.
- 25:16Try to determine what you're reacting to in terms of foods.
- 25:20More than likely it's going to be peanuts, dairy products,
- 25:23gluten containing grains like Greek barley, rye, oats, and
- 25:27minimize those as much as possible.
- 25:30You're going to be deficient in vitamin C because all humans are
- 25:32deficient in vitamin C. So I'm going to put you on oral
- 25:36vitamin C to start with. The stress that you've been
- 25:39under and most people have been under stress means you you're
- 25:43going to leach out your water soluble vitamins and some of
- 25:45your minerals like zinc and magnesium.
- 25:47So I want you to take a few supplements and more than
- 25:51likely, living in Western society, you're going to be
- 25:53exposed to antibiotics in in your food, especially meats.
- 25:58So I'm going to assume that your gut is not as healthy as it
- 26:02should be. So I'd like you to take some
- 26:03probiotics and some prebiotics. Here are the prebiotic foods and
- 26:07here are the probiotic foods. And because you've got gut
- 26:10problems, I think you need to take a probiotic supplement for
- 26:13meals. That's all I would do.
- 26:15And so now the other thing is basically you're not doing any
- 26:19exercise. I want you to touch your toes.
- 26:21Do some sit ups, only a few every day.
- 26:25Don't weigh yourself out. Go for 1/2 an hour walk, go for
- 26:271/2 a minute walk, whatever you you can do.
- 26:30If you can't walk for any more than two minutes, then walk for
- 26:331 1/2. But put that into practice.
- 26:36And if you've, if you've never done anything before in your
- 26:40life in terms of exercise, when you wake up in the morning,
- 26:44touch your toes once or just do 1 push up.
- 26:48And that means you've succeeded in breaking that habit.
- 26:51Then the next morning, do 2. Next morning, do 3.
- 26:54So individuality is a crucial factor when you're looking after
- 26:59people, Jeremy. And all of what I've been saying
- 27:03may be appropriate, may not be appropriate to the patient.
- 27:06Individuality is an absolutely critical factor in nutrition,
- 27:09too. You know, we are what we eat to
- 27:12some extent, but we, what is my mind when man's meat is another
- 27:17man's poison. So we, you know, I might be able
- 27:19to eat, eat eggs, don't have a problem.
- 27:22But Joe down the road has eggs and he feels depressed.
- 27:27You know, this is this is what individuality is all about.
- 27:32Ian, I I've said this a number of times on my on my show and
- 27:37I've I've even said this to to to Tim Noakes and he, like you,
- 27:43recommends supplements. Now I've got a love hate
- 27:46relationship with him, mainly because there are supplements
- 27:52which which suggests that they're taken as an accessory,
- 27:56which means that you should first sort out your primary
- 28:00nutrition. I'm trying to think how to ask
- 28:05the question is, is resorting to supplements right off the bat
- 28:13not putting the cart before the horse?
- 28:14Should we not be first looking at our primary food?
- 28:20Yes, absolutely. I agree.
- 28:23And that's what I do with the at the first consultation with
- 28:26people, patients want to start feeling better.
- 28:30And one of the ways that I discovered I don't prescribe
- 28:34supplements for everybody, but for those who really want to
- 28:37feel better quickly, I will suggest supplements for those
- 28:41who are really weak and tired and rundown and recurrent
- 28:47infections and so on. I'll, I'll give them an, some
- 28:50intramuscular injections for those.
- 28:52For example, a 21 year old female comes in with severe
- 28:57adult chickenpox. Now she was came in at night
- 29:04time, said you've got to go to the hospital.
- 29:06You, you are in a serious condition.
- 29:08You can hardly breathe and you can't, you can hardly swallow
- 29:11your own mucus. But I said, I'll give you
- 29:17something to get you on the way. I gave her some intravenous
- 29:20vitamin CA, big, big, big dose, an intramuscular injection of
- 29:25vitamin B to lift up her energy levels.
- 29:28And I said off to hospital the next morning.
- 29:30That was about 9:00 at night. The next morning I was in the
- 29:33clinic and I saw her walking up the up the driveway.
- 29:38She was eating, she was drinking.
- 29:41The pox had all dried up. No new pox, but they're all over
- 29:44her body and down at trachea and esophagus.
- 29:46Now that's an acute situation where if I said to her, you've
- 29:50got to go and change your diet and exercise, it was
- 29:53inappropriate management. So we have to have strategic
- 29:59management plans for everybody so that they know once that
- 30:05they've got a plan that they can look after themselves.
- 30:07Responsibility for yourself, which is what, which is what you
- 30:10and I'm sure many of your viewers do.
- 30:14But the systems that we've got now have failed and they've
- 30:19failed because basically we were at rely on synthetic chemicals
- 30:23for healthcare and. There's too much bad stuff in
- 30:26our soil, et cetera, et cetera. Yeah, yeah.
- 30:29And that's why sometimes the the nutrients that are required for
- 30:34our liver to detoxify and the liver is the organ for
- 30:36detoxification. We've got 2 phases in the liver
- 30:40and they both require nutrients and we often don't get enough of
- 30:43those particular vitamins and minerals in our to get the liver
- 30:47moving again. So, you know, the judicious use
- 30:51of supplementation is critical with, you know, in Australia,
- 30:56I'm sure in South South Africa as well, the farmers have to put
- 30:59out salt leaks and we supplement the the diet, the animals diets
- 31:03during high productivity times, we supplement their diets during
- 31:09mating times to improve breeding programs.
- 31:13So it's a biological necessity if we're going to optimize the
- 31:19health well-being of humans and the health, well-being and
- 31:22productivity of our livestock. When you talk about vaccines,
- 31:30does the principle apply to animals also?
- 31:33Yes, it does. I mean, we make the animals sick
- 31:39by giving them vaccines and they've got their own routine
- 31:41vaccines as well. But I can, I can, you know, let
- 31:46me say that I think the childhood vaccine schedules are
- 31:51responsible for most of the allergies that we're seeing in
- 31:53children. The hay fever, the asthma, the
- 31:55eczema, the psychological problems, the ADHD, the autism.
- 32:02I'm sure it's contributing to the increased incidence of
- 32:06childhood diabetes to childhood rheumatoid arthritis or stools
- 32:10disease and also contributing to childhood leukemias.
- 32:15And leukemia is a very interesting picture because it's
- 32:17regarded as a blood cancer. But in my experience with some
- 32:23patients with leukemia, you find that they are completely devoid
- 32:28of vitamin C. The white blood cells don't have
- 32:31a scarring of vitamin C, and if you treat them with vitamin C
- 32:37and the cofactors you can actually reverse.
- 32:41The leukemia, I was asking about animals because it's a question
- 32:49that's come up a number of times over the years when we talk
- 32:52about vaccines and, and, and, and rejecting vaccines because
- 32:56they don't seem to have any positive.
- 33:00Well, they don't seem to have any near benefit.
- 33:02And I often look at the animal Kingdom as a kind of guide
- 33:08because because animals live in a way that in many ways we
- 33:12should mimic because they, you know, they're a lot more
- 33:16natural. And it appears to me in that
- 33:22vaccines make no net benefit either to to animals and, and,
- 33:27and in many ways antibiotics also.
- 33:33Well, we we know that we can. With antibiotics, we can
- 33:38actually change the flora of the, of the gut and pump
- 33:43carbohydrate and other nutrients and hormones into animals and
- 33:46make them grow faster. And, and when you put them under
- 33:49that sort of stress, you need the antibiotics because they are
- 33:52under so much stress that they're more likely to get
- 33:54bacterial and viral infections. I'll go back to my back to the
- 34:00early 1960s, nineteen 63 and I went and started agriculture and
- 34:08one of the properties they had what we they had pigs at pig
- 34:14farm and it was a very, very well established pig farm and
- 34:20they grew pigs. Young pigs can get pneumonias
- 34:23and gastroenteritis and, and you know that's a risk because you
- 34:28you've got them in such small enclosures and, and, and over
- 34:33populated enclosures and, and the possibility of infection and
- 34:36dirt and so forth. What they did was an experiment
- 34:41that it was called the hyper pig, which was the hyper stood
- 34:45for hysterectomy produced and artificially reared.
- 34:49So the sow was sacrificed and the piglets taken and
- 34:53artificially reared with various milks of sort.
- 34:59These piglets were brought up in a sterile environment.
- 35:03They could not go into a, an outdoor environment and survive,
- 35:08but they were, they were bought into a a sterile environment and
- 35:12they they required very high levels of nutrients for their
- 35:18immune systems to function. Well, that's a completely
- 35:23unnatural situation. And it reminds me of what we're
- 35:26doing with human beings. We don't sacrifice the mother
- 35:29with human beings, but we bring them up in a highly sterile
- 35:32environment, a a completely unnatural environment.
- 35:35And if there's some dirt around, it's cleaned up.
- 35:38And if the kids get dirty, well, the kids don't go out anymore.
- 35:41And it it and, and play with hay and soil and and animals as much
- 35:46as you, you, you would do on a farm.
- 35:49And our rural kids, the kids grow growing up in rural areas
- 35:55are generally healthier than those who live in cities.
- 35:58We we're living in cities and we're cramming people into
- 36:01suburbs now that almost going to be future slums, beautiful
- 36:07suburbs in in Melbourne where I live being overcrowded, but
- 36:11because of the political arena and the need to forward people
- 36:18into 15 minute cities. I mean, I'm going off the track
- 36:22here, but we are living in very unnatural environments and
- 36:26animals, you, you see that they wander from place to place.
- 36:30They, they may suffer from time to time from a lack of food, but
- 36:35most of the time animals have survived in the wild.
- 36:39And if you, if you know how the apes live, it's almost like
- 36:46Nirvana. The, the, the great apes,
- 36:49basically they're vegetarian. I'm not saying they're high
- 36:56carbs because they do have a lot of foods that are balanced in
- 37:03terms of the protein intake. But we humans have developed a
- 37:09massive brain. It requires so much glucose, so
- 37:14much fuel that we evolved away from the ability to produce
- 37:22vitamin C. And vitamin C is manufactured in
- 37:26the liver of nearly all animals apart from the human and higher
- 37:28apes. It's manufactured.
- 37:31It's very important. Yeah.
- 37:34I I think the closer we can go to living more naturally as a
- 37:41community with wholesome, unprocessed foods, foods that
- 37:45are not being treated with chemicals, pesticides,
- 37:48herbicides from soils that are nourished organically with
- 37:52humans and with sort of compost returning to the soil the
- 37:57nutrients that we need. And the soil is a critical
- 38:02factor in terms of our health and our reproductive abilities
- 38:06and our mental health. There was a book written called
- 38:09From Soil to psyche. Very interesting book about
- 38:13what's in the soil can end up in the brain, can end up in the
- 38:16psyche, you. Apologize now for quote UN quote
- 38:21going off in different direction.
- 38:25I, I take great offence to to that.
- 38:27Please go off in as many directions as you want.
- 38:30I quite enjoy that, but. All right, I'll go.
- 38:35I'll go off a track now. We came out of the we came out
- 38:38of the jungle, we went in the fields.
- 38:41We became hunter gatherers. Then we decided we'd start
- 38:44growing things, keeping animals. And then we decided we would
- 38:48milk the animals. We we drink milk, which is very
- 38:51healthy for us. We found some seeds and we
- 38:54started planting seeds and we found that some seeds were
- 38:57durable and lasted many, many seasons.
- 39:00And these were seeds like wheat and barley, riot oats and rice.
- 39:04And we discovered that we could actually plant lots of these
- 39:08things and it was very, very good for us.
- 39:11Then we got to a point where we developed machines and we found
- 39:16that we could get machines to actually row crop.
- 39:21Well, they can crop, process sugar cane, process wheat,
- 39:26process all of these things. Sorry.
- 39:30No, you're making a very good point, Ian, because remember in
- 39:372020 when they locked us down? I don't at any stage remember
- 39:44anybody in the medical or Pharmaceutical industry
- 39:49recommending things like eating healthy and getting sunlight and
- 39:57spending time with family. In actual fact, what we got was
- 39:59the exact opposite. Get a vaccine, stay away from
- 40:04family members, stay indoors outside of the sun and and take
- 40:11these drugs. There was nothing.
- 40:14There was nothing. Yeah.
- 40:16In my view, that was healthy. There was nothing in our
- 40:19country, your country in the West that said anything like
- 40:25look after your health was basically locked down and and
- 40:29what happens with lockdowns? People drank alcohol, they got
- 40:33lazy and many people thought it was great.
- 40:36It was a great holiday because in Australia we paid people to
- 40:39stay home. Yes, it, it, it really destroyed
- 40:43our, the fabric of our, our society, especially in Melbourne
- 40:46here because in Melbourne we were the most locked down city
- 40:48in the world. And I put a sub stack up
- 40:51recently about our lockdowns because it was over 270 odd days
- 40:57of lockdown and it really destroyed a generation of
- 41:01children in my opinion. But the chief scientific
- 41:06officer, sorry, the chief health officer of Victoria who worked
- 41:11with the premier, who was known as Daniel Andrews or Dictator
- 41:15Dan, as he was re nicknamed the chief health officer, recently
- 41:21came out and said what we did was wrong.
- 41:23What we did was not scientific. What we did, we made big
- 41:26mistakes and we have to learn from these mistakes.
- 41:28But he hasn't said sorry and he hasn't been held accountable.
- 41:32And he's mere culpa, Jeremy, he's mere culpa.
- 41:36He's not accepted by myself or anybody else who I know in my
- 41:40profession because of the number of people maimed and killed as a
- 41:44result of his actions. So what they did was completely
- 41:49opposite to what they were doing in countries like El Salvador.
- 41:52I mean, El Salvador, the government over there was
- 41:54promoting it for advert. It was advertising for people to
- 41:57go out into the sunshine and get some exercise.
- 42:00And they actually had advertisements with people
- 42:03enjoying themselves outdoors, mixing with one another.
- 42:07It was only a flu like virus. It wasn't going to kill people.
- 42:11It was only going to kill those who are old or who had
- 42:14comorbidities. And the best thing for for them
- 42:17would be to isolate them, test their vitamin D levels, up their
- 42:20vitamin D levels and they probably would have resisted the
- 42:24the virus. I mean, we did a study in seven
- 42:28different tertiary institutions in Turkey because we couldn't do
- 42:33it in Australia. The study was funded by
- 42:35Australia's richest woman, a mining magnate Gina Rinehart.
- 42:40The study showed quite clearly that vitamin D protected you
- 42:43against COVID. The study also showed that if
- 42:48you had very low levels of vitamin D, you would die.
- 42:52The study also showed that if you're in intensive care and you
- 42:55received high doses of intravenous vitamin C, you were
- 42:58out of intensive care very, very quickly.
- 43:01In fact, you shouldn't have been even admitted to intensive care
- 43:05without giving a shot of vitamin C.
- 43:08Unbelievable that our health minister saw the results of that
- 43:12study and decided it was not enough and that he would
- 43:15continue going on with the vaccines.
- 43:18Which tells me that there is something seriously wrong with
- 43:22the system, with the machine, with corruption, with with the
- 43:28cartels. We know where they are, we know
- 43:31who they are and of course with the the elites who are wanting
- 43:39control. However, Ian, I've got a bone to
- 43:45pick here because unless I've misunderstood you a couple times
- 43:49you've you've brought up alcohol for all the wrong reasons.
- 43:54I, I live on a vineyard. I love my wine.
- 44:00Good, good. And, and you're going to, you're
- 44:02going to have a very, very tough time here convincing me to stop
- 44:06drinking. Listen, listen, we all have
- 44:10vices, right? We all have vices.
- 44:13Wine and whiskey are my 2 vices. I love a glass of red.
- 44:18Well, I wish I could take my computer camera and show you
- 44:21what's in my cupboard over here. OK, so you are giving me a
- 44:26lifeline here. Yep, absolutely.
- 44:28I mean part of the the longevity of the people in Sardinia and
- 44:36the island of Greece, Igathea that they drink, but they drink
- 44:42sensibly and they they that's. The key.
- 44:46Yeah, that's the key, sensibly. Absolutely, Yeah.
- 44:48Yeah. I mean, I don't know.
- 44:51I don't have a winery, but I can tell you my, my, my cupboard is
- 44:57that's some pretty good stuff in it.
- 44:58And I live in a house that's 140 years old, just over 140 years
- 45:05old. It's an old Victoria with a,
- 45:08with a tower and a cellar. And so, but I'm telling patients
- 45:14until you're better, no sugar, white flour products, alcohol,
- 45:18tea, coffee, chocolate, there blah, blah, blah.
- 45:19It's, it's the usual sort of blah, blah, blah.
- 45:23But the other, the other important thing is to keep
- 45:26yourself young and healthy is a dog.
- 45:30So you write a prescription for a dog, OK.
- 45:34And, and the other thing is, you know, you've got to find the,
- 45:38the kid inside you. You know, you've got to find the
- 45:40kid inside you and, and be able to muck around and enjoy
- 45:45yourself. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 45:49Well, my, my wife lives in Queensland because Melbourne's
- 45:52too cold for her. But I mean, she's in Queensland
- 45:54and that's where she prefers to live.
- 45:55But we we sell it. Wait, wait, wait.
- 45:58My, my, my Aussie geography is not very good.
- 46:00So, so NSW is where Sydney is. That's, that's, is that correct?
- 46:05Queensland is above that. Is that right?
- 46:07Queensland is above there's Tasmania right down the bottom
- 46:12the the triangle of Ireland, Tasmania.
- 46:16Then Vic is was the the state where Melbourne is the capital.
- 46:22Then there's NSW which is the capital, the capital of Sydney
- 46:26with the coat hanger, Harbour Bridge and the Opera House.
- 46:30Then further north is Queensland over the border right OK,
- 46:33Queensland has got the the Great Barrier Reef and the islands off
- 46:41yes, that's right. And we've got the just.
- 46:45Outside my, I was going to say just outside my studio.
- 46:48Yeah, I've got a, I've got a, a wine rack.
- 46:50It holds about 220 bottles of wine.
- 46:58So, so, so, so, so the wine discussion is going to be quite
- 47:02muted. OK, well take that look.
- 47:06I look I have I have resveratrol every day and not in the form of
- 47:14white red wine. But if I do have a red wine,
- 47:16that's when I get my red red from but it's got some great
- 47:19properties. It helps I.
- 47:22Actually heard that a glass of red a day isn't is actually
- 47:24quite good for you in any event. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I look, I
- 47:30agree. But you if you are trying to
- 47:32stop somebody's blood sugars from swinging and and you know,
- 47:36100%, yeah, thank you. It does.
- 47:40It does stimulate your liver, and too much stimulation is a
- 47:44stress. So, you know, I think you're
- 47:49probably able to handle other toxins better if you have a
- 47:54liver that's trained to detoxify.
- 47:59And of course, alcohol has to be detoxified and during that
- 48:06process you're stimulating enzymes.
- 48:09And I think I won't say anymore, Jeremy, because I want everybody
- 48:14to go off and start drinking heavily, but I.
- 48:20Forget his name now. There was a cancer scientist who
- 48:26was on my show. Oh, I've gone blank now.
- 48:28I am so, so sorry. He's no and he's written, I
- 48:35don't know, 125 papers already on on science, on science, on
- 48:42cancer being metabolic and not being genetic.
- 48:47And he he argues something very similar to you that basically
- 48:52reducing sugar just as a general rule of thumb is an excellent
- 48:55idea because cancer tend various cancers tend to feed off sugars
- 49:01anyway. Yeah, they, they go back to a
- 49:04primitive way of producing energy and that's using too much
- 49:08sugar. So they they love sugar.
- 49:11They also love salt because sodium and or chloride on the
- 49:16cell membrane stimulates the cell to want to divide.
- 49:20So salt is another one, but not many people will acknowledge
- 49:25that. And cancers don't like oxygen.
- 49:30Most cancers don't like high tension oxygen and, or, and
- 49:34heat. So what we do with with cancer
- 49:37patients now is put them into hyperbaric oxygen chambers and
- 49:41we also give them hypothermia either in a chamber or localized
- 49:45hypothermia. So if you've got just one breast
- 49:48cancer and there's no evidence of spread, then we can put a
- 49:50plate on the breast cancer and heat the tumor and the the tumor
- 49:55cells go into a process of suiciding by suicidal.
- 50:00We call it apoptosis and it's another good way of helping.
- 50:06We also with our cancer patients give them high doses of
- 50:10intravenous vitamin C because it is a carcinogenic cancer cells
- 50:14and it helps normal cells and the immune system function
- 50:17better. We put them into infrared or
- 50:20near infrared light beds and the infrared light beds pick up the
- 50:28put the infrared light into the circulating cells and the
- 50:34circulating cancer cells are actually affected by the light.
- 50:40We can't get to the deep cells in the body, but the circulating
- 50:44cancer cells die off and by reducing the circulating tumor
- 50:49cells, we can reduce the risk of metastasis and spread.
- 50:53So there's a lot of interesting things happening with the
- 50:56biochemistry and metabolism in cancer.
- 50:59And as you said, if, if there's any genetic component of
- 51:03cancers, probably in less than 5% of cancers.
- 51:08His name is Thomas Seyfried. Let's.
- 51:10Just come see now. Yeah.
- 51:12And yeah, he's got a great book called Cancer as a Metabolic
- 51:16Disease, which in a very interesting horseshoe points
- 51:22back to diet and, and, and what basically we are what we eat.
- 51:28Yeah, it's, it's diet and it's micronutrients.
- 51:34I mean, back in the 1970s and early 80s, there was Gladys
- 51:39Bloch in the National Cancer Institute.
- 51:41And she said there's enough evidence that micronutrients,
- 51:44it's time for action in cancer care.
- 51:48But, you know, there was some studies down and they designed
- 51:50the studies to fail. William Bloch, now that was
- 51:53Gladys Bloch. William Bloch in Hong Kong did a
- 51:58study in northwestern China where they have a very high
- 52:01incidence of gastrointestinal cancers from stomach bound to
- 52:05anus. And they showed with three
- 52:08particular nutrients in blinded and controlled studies in 30,000
- 52:13people that three nutrients could reduce the risk of
- 52:17incidence of gastrointestinal cancers by 26%.
- 52:22Which means 26 people out of 100 who expect to get expected to
- 52:26get cancer did not get the cancer.
- 52:29And those nutrients would beta carotene, vitamin E and
- 52:32selenium, the nutrient that I mentioned earlier, just three
- 52:36nutrients. Now, if you look at the, that's
- 52:39not even looking at their diet. But do you think all of the
- 52:45oncology clinics and doctors around the world would be
- 52:47recommending something like that?
- 52:51It doesn't, doesn't make money. It's not part of the business
- 52:55model. Yeah, that's right there.
- 52:59And doesn't make money. No, doesn't make money, but it
- 53:05the whole. COVID thing was about what makes
- 53:09money, what doesn't make money it.
- 53:11Was about making making money, making people sick, putting them
- 53:14in the hospital and convincing everybody that the
- 53:20vaccinologists. And when I was when I graduated,
- 53:24Jeremy, there was no such word as a vaccinologist.
- 53:27And you know, the vaccine ologists are now being trained
- 53:31in psychology to reduce this thing called vaccine hesitancy.
- 53:39It it it it's it's a a model. But I mean that, that too makes
- 53:46me laugh. Vaccine hesitancy as as if like
- 53:49the default is not to be hesitant.
- 53:51And for some, and for some strange reason, you no longer
- 53:56want to have this toxic injection put into your arm.
- 53:59And now, you know, now you, you're the problem because, you
- 54:02know, you're being hesitant. Yeah.
- 54:04Yeah, you're being hesitant, but the, the, the, the old guy who
- 54:08goes in for his 8th or 9th vaccine, he's the one who's
- 54:11who's approved by society. He's he is a, a hero.
- 54:15He's going in to to protect everybody else.
- 54:18Well, he's lucky because he's so old.
- 54:20His immune system's not going to go into shock, you know, and
- 54:23he's not going to die from the vaccines where he probably will
- 54:26eventually get dementia or something like that.
- 54:28But that's the younger people whose immune systems are still
- 54:33alive and kicking that that actually overreact.
- 54:37Yes. And that's, that's also the
- 54:39other thing. Have you noticed about, I don't
- 54:42know, let's say 8 years ago, we could have had any discussion we
- 54:45wanted about vaccines and nobody really would have got offended
- 54:49or anything like that, right? Like now we hear about people
- 54:53dying and, and, and, and weird things happening.
- 54:57And I don't know about you, but I immediately think could it
- 55:01have been? But you can't say it out loud
- 55:04because you're not allowed to say it out loud anymore.
- 55:06Have you noticed? Yep.
- 55:07Yeah, yeah. Well, if I'm taught told I'm not
- 55:13allowed to say something out loud, then I and I believe in
- 55:16saying something, then I will say it out very loud, you know?
- 55:20But I mean, people are dying and we know exactly why, right?
- 55:24We know why and you still can't say it.
- 55:29And if you allude to IT, people go, how would you know?
- 55:33There's no, there's no way of knowing it was the vaccine.
- 55:36Well, there is a way of knowing it was the vaccine because of
- 55:40the of the numbers and the data that's been coming out.
- 55:43We can't argue against that. And as a, as a doctor, if I give
- 55:49a drug or an injection to somebody and they react within a
- 55:52certain period of time, it's called the Bradford Hill,
- 55:56Bradford Hill evidence criteria that if, if it's temporal, if
- 56:05it's within a certain period of time and there is a known
- 56:08mechanism of action by which that particular medicine or drug
- 56:12or injection could have caused the patient to either get sick
- 56:15or die or have reaction, then logic says, well, it's probable
- 56:23that this caused the, the death or the serious adverse reaction.
- 56:28So I'm not going to do it anymore.
- 56:29When you get large populations where that's consistent and the
- 56:33statistical analysis shows that the probabilities that are
- 56:38occurring were not by chance, then that's science.
- 56:43That's really hard science and that's what's happening, Jeremy.
- 56:46We know that the sudden unexplained deaths are caused by
- 56:51the vaccine. We know that the turbo cancers
- 56:55are caused by the vaccines. We know that the Guillain Barre
- 56:58syndrome caused by the vaccines. We know that the vaccines,
- 57:02before they were even released by Pfizer caused, according to
- 57:06Pfizer's own records, 1201 serious adverse effects, and it
- 57:14was still released under the emergency use authorization, the
- 57:21EUI. And this is one of the greatest
- 57:25crimes against humanity. And I've been I might take
- 57:29credit for being the first physician in the world to make
- 57:33the statement that the mRNA vaccines within the lipid
- 57:38nanoparticle are Class 1 carcinogens.
- 57:44Yeah, when used, when you made that public statement, I think
- 57:47you got quite emotional also. I did that was in, that was on a
- 57:52stage in Perth in front of 3000 people and it was a very
- 57:56emotional night because it was a revelation of what's been going
- 58:02on. And I had a formal speech to
- 58:06give with, with slides, with PowerPoint slides.
- 58:11But before the event, there was a Meet the Speaker event and the
- 58:17speaker, me being one of them, were exposed to politicians, to
- 58:25academics and to patients and the patients stories I'd heard
- 58:31many times before. But I got on that stage and I
- 58:35thought, I can't do a formal slideshow on this.
- 58:42I have to speak from the heart and that's I could hear people
- 58:50in the front row, front rows of the audience saying come on,
- 58:55doc, tell us everything. So I did.
- 59:04Yeah, well, the world, the world needs more professors like you
- 59:08in. I'm just looking at the time.
- 59:10I think it's a wonderful way to to end the conversation.
- 59:14How can my audience keep up with with your work?
- 59:18Well, please, I think you're, you're you're great to be doing
- 59:25these sort of things. Jeremy, I'd like to keep in
- 59:28touch with you somehow. Yeah.
- 59:31Easy. My work I I'm doing regular
- 59:37substance for the last few years so you can subscribe to my sub
- 59:43stacks and they are free I've. Got it.
- 59:45Yeah, it's ianbrighthope.substack.com.
- 59:47That's it, yeah, yeah. And I've got, we've got the
- 59:51World of Wellness, which is a local organization, it's a
- 59:54public organization. There's a lot of my interviews
- 59:58on that, but it's 35 Aussie dollars a year for all the
- 1:00:02information and we keep and that's nothing.
- 1:00:06And the Line Council of Australia.
- 1:00:09Is our bigger public group. We represent 2 million
- 1:00:11Australians there. So you know, through my sub
- 1:00:17stack, you can connect it with all of these other things.
- 1:00:19And I've just recently been asked to do a regular podcast.
- 1:00:22So I don't know how that's going to go because I'm not that
- 1:00:28technically a fame. Well, I'm pretty good.
- 1:00:34I'm pretty good on Zoom, but I'm I'm a learner on on Riverside.
- 1:00:40Zoom's terrible. Yeah, no, the quality of Zoom is
- 1:00:44a sub 4. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:00:46Now look all the stuff that come.
- 1:00:48I've seen it on Riverside. Beats Zoom, yes.
- 1:00:53Well, with a surname like yours in Bright Hope, how can how can
- 1:00:59anybody go away from this conversation feeling down?
- 1:01:02Thank you for for joining me in the trenches.
