895. Finding the Freedom in Disappointing Others w/ Shauna Niequist

Hey, Heal Squad! In this Heal in 10, Dr. Jonas Kuehne is pulling back the curtain on one of the most controversial (and misunderstood) medications out there: ivermectin. He reveals the real science behind ivermectin and why it was originally studied for cancer long before COVID-19. He explains how it won a Nobel Prize, helped eradicate disease, and why it’s been so heavily criticized despite being used worldwide in millions of patients. We also dive into fenbendazole, metabolic cancer therapy, and the two fuel sources your cancer cells rely on—glucose and glutamine—and how cutting them off could starve cancer. This 10-minute clip is packed with surprising research, practical takeaways, and a powerful reminder: sometimes the tools that help us heal the most are the ones no one’s talking about.

Hey, Heal Squad! This Throwback Thursday, we’re joined by Dr. Steven Gundry—cardiothoracic surgeon, gut health expert, and author of The Energy Paradox. Dr. Gundry breaks down how leaky gut is at the root of modern-day fatigue, what foods are quietly disrupting your energy, and why simply popping anti-inflammatory supplements isn’t the answer. He shares surprising truths about fruit, smoothies, and grains (yup, even the healthy ones) and teaches us how to “seal the border” of the gut for real, lasting healing. You’ll also hear how gut buddies and postbiotics might be the energy-boosting allies you didn’t know you needed—and why your farts could actually be a good sign.

Hey Heal Squad! We’re back with Part 2 of our incredible conversation with Dr. Jonas Kuehne, regenerative health expert and founder of Cryohealthcare. And in this episode, we’re diving deep into a cutting-edge topic—umbilical stem cells, and how they could change the way we fight disease, reduce inflammation, support the brain, and even reverse aging. Dr. Jonas breaks down exactly how stem cells work in the body, the difference between newborn and autologous cells, why the FDA restricts expansion in the U.S., and what to watch out for if you’re considering therapy abroad.  PLUS, get into Jonas’ daily anti-aging routine: from avoiding seed oils and eating clean, to fasting, early workouts, and why he's big on vitamin K2 with D3. This episode is filled with simple shifts that can make a big impact on your energy, skin, digestion, and long-term health. Listen to Part 1 HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  Umbilical stem cells are powerful builders: They are not just replacements. They help repair damage, recruit your body’s healing resources, and may even support neurological repair and immune balance. Your body needs breaks to heal. Strategic fasting, whole foods, and clean protein help support detox, reduce inflammation, and activate longevity pathways like autophagy. The anti-aging secret? Keep it clean. Cutting seed oils, artificial sweeteners, and hormone-disrupting ingredients is one of the most powerful ways to protect your energy, skin, and hormonal balance. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EPISODE RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.jonas.kuehne/  Website: http://www.jonasmd.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@JonasKuehneMD  Cryo Healthcare: https://www.cryohealthcare.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaeeU6H7MNMsAm5HIjcNleJrRLnokvOYUGLe9LXN-ayts3HPaHLVb2cqVaPKHw_aem_bbgV2vuCpxgV6l6T1w9ceQ  Face Lifter: https://www.facelifter.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAae34sptRGBD2YTWovchpdiWvvIP1fPapkn42gz2ao_J-JSq-yg1w_HSLaedYQ_aem_Y17-S3O73cBe3WMV-5yDRw ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad! Get ready to learn how to radically boost your energy, immune system, and brain health—naturally. In Part 1, Maria sits down with Dr. Jonas Kuehne, renowned integrative physician and regenerative health expert, to break down everything you need to know about mitochondrial health—including how to use it as your body’s first line of defense against chronic illness and even cancer. We’re talking methylene blue, melatonin production, vitamin D, and even the truth behind controversial (but promising) therapies like ivermectin and fenbendazole. Dr. Jonas also explains the science behind red light, grounding, and how your body’s healing potential increases exponentially when you optimize your light, sleep, and nutrient exposure. From reversing brain fog to metabolic healing and cancer prevention—this episode is filled with real tools and science-backed hope. You don’t want to miss this one! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Mitochondria are the engines of your body. Boosting their function can increase energy, slow aging, and even prevent disease. Methylene blue is a powerful mitochondrial support. At the right dose, it helps brain function, fights pathogens, and may even aid in cancer recovery. Controversial doesn’t mean ineffective. Repurposed drugs like ivermectin and fenbendazole show promise in cancer treatment—and Dr. Jonas explains why science (not stigma) should lead the way. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EPISODE RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.jonas.kuehne/  Website: http://www.jonasmd.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@JonasKuehneMD  Cryo Healthcare: https://www.cryohealthcare.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaeeU6H7MNMsAm5HIjcNleJrRLnokvOYUGLe9LXN-ayts3HPaHLVb2cqVaPKHw_aem_bbgV2vuCpxgV6l6T1w9ceQ  Face Lifter: https://www.facelifter.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAae34sptRGBD2YTWovchpdiWvvIP1fPapkn42gz2ao_J-JSq-yg1w_HSLaedYQ_aem_Y17-S3O73cBe3WMV-5yDRw ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
