Today we honor the Mavericks in Herbology, Holistic Healing, & Traditional Medicine.


In this limited series, we’re diving into the stories of the game changers—the outcasts and outliers who dared to think differently. They went against their traditional training and faced skepticism from their peers. But their persistence paid off. Their patients healed, their families thrived, and they themselves found renewed health.


These are their stories. Stories of courage, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of healing. Join us as we celebrate the doctors who dared to go rogue and, in doing so, changed the landscape of medicine forever.


This is episode three of "Doctors Gone Rogue" on the Food Heals Podcast. 


Dr. Bill Rawls

Meet Dr. Bill Rawls, MD, a fourth-generation physician who bucked tradition after facing a personal health crisis with Lyme disease. Realizing the limitations of conventional medicine, he discovered the healing power of herbs and embraced integrative health. Now a leading expert, Dr. Rawls shares his knowledge through his book, The Cellular Wellness Solution, helping others transform their health with science-backed herbal therapies. His journey from crisis to advocate for natural wellness is truly inspiring.


Learn more about Dr. Bill Rawls at RawlsMD.com. And my interview with Dr.Rawls was so good, that we made it a two-parter. Listen to two full episodes on episodes 427 and 428 of Food Heals.


Dr. Gil Kajiki

Meet Dr. Gil Kajiki, a chiropractor and Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner who revolutionized the treatment of hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s Autoimmune Thyroid without pharmaceutical drugs. When his wife's health deteriorated and conventional medicine failed her, Dr. Kajiki discovered natural solutions through supplements, lifestyle changes, and diet. Now, at the Valley Thyroid Institute, he helps patients worldwide overcome thyroid issues drug-free, inspired by his wife's journey to wellness.

Dr. Angela DeBord Henriksen 

Meet Dr. Angela DeBord Henriksen, a board-certified physician who transformed her approach to medicine by embracing holistic health. When a misdiagnosed patient improved dramatically through dietary changes rather than pharmaceuticals, Angela realized the profound impact of nutrition on health. Now, she passionately helps patients heal and prevent disease by focusing on root causes and empowering them to make healthier food choices, embodying the philosophy that "food heals."

Driven by her own battles with mold and metal toxicity, Dr. Trubow brings compassion and expertise to her thriving practice at Five Journeys.

Today we celebrate the innovators, the mavericks, and the rebels who went rogue. 

In the words of Steve Jobs, “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

That iconic quote by Steve Jobs perfectly captures the essence of our new limited series, "Doctors Gone Rogue." These are the trailblazers who saw beyond the confines of traditional medicine. They believed in the body’s incredible ability to heal itself when given the right tools and environment.


Dr. Edward Group

Meet Dr. Edward Group, a chemist on the path to becoming a heart surgeon who realized that allopathic medicine treated symptoms but not the root cause. After losing both parents to cancer, he shifted his focus to holistic health, founding Global Healing to help people heal naturally.

Dr. Marty Goldstein

Next up, Meet Dr. Marty Goldstein, a pioneering veterinarian who bucked the traditional system to revolutionize pet health care. Faced with rising cancer rates in even young animals, he ditched traditional methods for a mix of herbs, vitamins, and acupuncture. Now, he's improving and extending the lives of pets other vets had given up on.


Learn more about Dr. Marty at DrMartysPets.com. And my interview with Dr. Marty was so good, that we made it a two-parter. Listen to two full episodes with Dr. Marty Goldstein on episodes 439 and 440 of Food Heals.


Dr. Juli Kramer

Finally, Meet Dr. Juli Kramer, who defied conventional medicine when her doctor suggested microwaving her body to treat her severe gynecological problems. Unsatisfied with merely treating symptoms, Juli sought a deeper solution and discovered the healing power of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Do you struggle with IBD or severe IBS? Constant pain and chronic fatigue? Always worrying about where the bathroom is? Medication dependence? Being unable to enjoy food? Then this episode is for you.

Approximately 1.6 million Americans currently have IBD, an increase of about 200,000 since the last time the CCFA reported this figure in 2011. And these are just the reported cases, so the actual number is much higher.

The truth is that medications don’t fix IBD. But my guest today does.

Josh has perfected what he calls The Gut Health Solution. His proven process works so well that even doctors have said, “That’s impossible!”

Today's guest, Josh Dech, shares exactly how and why it IS possible. Josh is an ex-paramedic, holistic nutritionist, medical lecturer, and physician’s consultant for IBD and other complex digestive diseases. He lives in Calgary, Alberta, and works with clients all over the world to help them naturally repair their gut and stay healthy.
