Keeping kids healthy can set a pattern for the rest of their lives. Dr. Prather says that 95% of a child's health care should be based on Structure-Function Care. In this episode, you'll discover:
—Why Dr. Prather says that those who say that "kids are always healthy" are wrong because a growing child has even more health care needs.
—How a child has an immune system based upon the Thymus, whereas an adult has an immune system based upon bone marrow. And why Dr. Prather says the difference in their immune system is almost like dealing with an entirely different creature.
—The importance of Iodine in pregnant Moms for determining the intelligence of the child. And how breastfeeding decreases the chances of learning disability, allergies, ADD, ADHD, and Autism.
—How to boost a child's immune system. And why it's important to develop a child's immune system even while in the womb by giving the Mom the right probiotics and prebiotics.
—The necessity of an annual stool kit and an annual Hair analysis for children to measure the true state of their health.
—How children are more susceptible to parasites and also absorb heavy metals "much quicker" than adults. And the CDC study that shows 65% of all children have a heavy metal toxicity.
—The natural supplements for Colic that are "short of miraculous" in how they get it under control. And the "huge importance" of Vitamin D.
—The reason Dr. Prather says that Homeopathy should be the first-line of defense in treating children and produces much better results than pharmaceuticals, which have never been tested on children. And why Dr. Prather says it's important to avoid antibiotics for children, but Holistic Integration can actually help make antibiotics work better when necessary by combining them with the right natural supplementation.
—Why Chiropractic, needle-free Acupuncture, and Craniosacral Therapy are so helpful for a child's health regimen. And how Diathermy can provide immediate relief for a screaming child suffering from an ear infection.
—And we'll reveal the details of our next free Holistic Integration seminar with Dr. Prather, "Building Healthy Kids From The Inside Out", on Wednesday, August 27th at 6:30 p.m.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hi, I'm Lisa Praither and welcome to the Voice of
Health with our host, doctor Robert Braither of Holistic Integration,
where lives are changed every day through the natural approach
to healthcare. Well, today we're talking about building healthy kids
from the inside out. It's that time of year school's starting. Yes,
(00:35):
hopefully a lot of kids got a lot of vitamin
D out there in the sun over the summer months.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
That's a real good way to build healthy goods.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Hopefully they spend a lot of time at the pool
and we're active and off their screens, and we're going
to talk about all that and nutrition and so let's
start with doctor Praither. How do you define holistic health
in the contexts of children's well being.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Well, a lot of people sit there and think, well,
you know, their kids, they're healthy, but that's not actually true.
It wasn't that long ago that children would die young.
You know that it was a very common thing with
a higher mortality. Yeah, and understanding that children have a
different immune system than adults, so they're more susceptible to
(01:21):
things because a child has to have a different immune
system because they're growing with our type of immune system,
which is stronger, it wouldn't allow growth. In other words,
the body would be responding to it. So like we
have a immune system that's based off of bone marrow,
theirs is based off of the thymus.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Oh, interesting, So children's immune system is based on the thymis.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
On the thymis, and yes, when a child actually reaches puberty,
their thymus actually shrinks and then the bone marrow takes
over a lot of the immune system. So it's a
different type of a almost like a different type of creature.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Is that why you like to have bone marrow?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I just like the taste. But yeah, so you know,
looking at kids and understanding how things are different along
those lines and keeping them healthy it's very important. But
it's just like with adults. You try to keep children balanced,
you know, you keep their structure balance, you keep their
(02:26):
physiology balance, structure, function, care and balance is the definition
of homeostasis, and homeostasis is the definition of health. So
kids need just as much diagnostics and can have an
awful lot of problems, and if you can keep them healthy,
that will set a pattern for the rest of their lives.
(02:46):
And so talking about you know, what's involved with that
is a very important part, and I actually encourage people
to start before they even conceive to kind of get
the body ready and those that you know.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Too, And what do you recommend for that.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Well, diagnostics, you know, you check for hair analysis, heavy metals,
make sure there's no heavy metals.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
And both the male and the female, both the male
and the females, carrying the child.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Right, and then keeping the woman's health up. You know,
as you're talking about, you know, developing a healthy child.
One of the most important things is iodine level. So
an iodine level in a mom is going to determine
how smart the kid is. Interesting, so making sure that
(03:36):
there's plenty of iodine in the system will play a
very big role. So that's one thing. Vitamin D. You know,
keeping all that up and testing all that out. The
more tests that you have beforehand as you're carrying the child,
the better. And then the big thing after that is
building their immune system and getting the proper nutrients. And
(03:56):
that's breastfeeding. So if a child is breastfed, the chances
of them having learning disabilities to increase quite dramatically. Add ADHD, autism,
all those things go down. So also allergies if they're breastfed,
they don't have the allergies that.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Just the bonding they talk about.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Well, it also increases intelligence. So as moms gaze into
baby's eyes, there is a neurodevelopment that actually occurs. It's
very interesting, but there is actually a like a laser
that goes between a mom's eyes and a baby's eyes
(04:39):
that doesn't do that with anybody else, And there's a
tremendous amount of neurodevelopment that occurs because of that. And
you know, it's just amazing what occurs. The baby's saliva
actually tells the mom's body what the baby needs nutritionally.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Just it's like a miracle.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It's definitely a miracle. Yeah, And then it transports that
into you know, then the breast milk will actually shift
according to the need. They even find that if more
than one child, like an older child, is also breastfeeding,
the milk will change from child to child.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Wow. Interesting. And I was just thinking of the benefits
of the colostrum, right, that's the first mouth.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Right, yeah, because that actually sets the gut immune system.
So the mom basically provides the immune system for the
baby in the first year, because a child's immune system
really doesn't develop until two years old, so they're really
dependent and you know, really breastfeeding should be at least
two years.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
So what if for some reason the mom can't breastfeed,
what would you suggest.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
There are we can't actually help you. We have formulas
for that that can actually work. So there are ways
to actually make up for that, because there are situations
that occur, but definitely mom's breast milk is the best.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah. Now, what are some natural ways then to boost
a child's immune system?
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Well, any age you look at the gut, eighty percent
of the immune systems around the gut. So one of
the things we do is a stool kid and see
what's going on in the gut and then getting the
proper gut bacteria into them. It really makes a big
difference along those lines.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
You know, one thing too when we open the show,
and I was thinking about, you know, with children, a
lot of times they can't verbalize how they feel, right,
and so it's very important to be observing them and
really listening to them, you know, watching them. I'm sorry
(06:51):
I'm bouncing back, but I think this is really important.
What kind of things should a parent, you know, look
for with the child that maybe something isn't quite right.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Well, I mean, of course, there's a lot of different
types of areas. If they don't sleep well. You know,
sleep is a pretty good indicator of how healthy a
child is. So one of the things that we do
and what we tell parents as they go through this,
the parents that the moms that go through the prenatal
types of things, the babies sleep through the night, you know,
(07:27):
I mean right away, and that's something that they all say, Yeah,
my child is actually sleeping through the night, and that
shows a sign of a healthy you know, that the
baby's actually doing well. Making eye contact very important. Is
there any swelling in the God? Does a baby cry
without any reason? Crying and being oftentimes you know, really
(07:49):
a child that you know, a difficult child. Things that
the kid is having trouble with that's an expression of
something that's wrong that there is an ation you and
then working with that child and getting it fixed as
one of the things that you need to do.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
And yeah, I was just thinking too, as that child
grows up too and they're verbal, but there's still things
that you can look for right on the skin back
of the arm.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
If there's yeah, bum spot there there can be a
vitamin A deficiency. Their nails is a good way to
kind of see. If they have little white pockets on
their nails, that's a sign of zinc deficiency.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
And when you say white pockets, what do you mean?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Yeah, you know how you look at this and there's
there's little pockets, white pockets sometimes that they have that
or the nails aren't forming zinc deficiency. That's usually a
zinc deficiency that goes on the skin. Do they have allergies,
that's a sign that something's not wrong.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
And dark circles, dark.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Circles under the eyes. You can look at the eyelids
see if there's anemia, you know, because it's not bright
red underneath. So there's there's a lot of things that
as I look at kids can actually see. Chiropractic is
a very important thing. Are they are their shoulders un leveled?
Because structural effects function function effects, structural right. So like
(09:16):
our grandsons just love to.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Get adjusted, Oh yeah they do.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I mean that's one of their favorite things to do.
And my nephews and all the kids. It's interesting all
the kids that come into our office. You know, when
I was adjusting and now that doctor Dodd's doing mostly adjusting.
Kids love love it. Yeah, they're like it's uh. I
had one dad who finally had to give in to
his son because he would bring him along with his adjustments,
(09:43):
and the boy got adjusted once and ever since then
he has to make it a point if he's taking
the son with him, he has to make sure that
he gets adjusted. Otherwise he's just you know, he doesn't,
he's not.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
They know it. They know that it makes a.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Difference, right, Well, feels good.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, and it's affecting their whole nervous system sure, which
is growing and reflexes are maturing, and that's all part
of it.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Well, it's like the dad said, what I understand because
you know, I can feel the difference, and so I
know he does too.
Speaker 1 (10:15):

The Voice of Health Wellness tip featuring rapid release technology,
Jucher Prather What conditions does the rapid release technology work on?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Carpal tunnel, shoulder issues where you have restrictions even like
shoulder rotator, cuffy, problems with the pains in the elbow
either golf elbow, tennis elbow. All help out tremendously.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Neck pain, low back pain.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Headaches, extremely excellent for headaches, siatica, performance syndromes, scoliosis even Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
And we've used it on TMJ EVENMJ we had that
big mass that or muscle that we need to release.
Neat conditions planar fesciitis.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
To Patron's contraction. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Rappid release has five heads on it, so you can
use specifically. The smaller heads would be for someone you.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Know, for smaller areas, for the hand, type of problems
along those lines, any type of scar tissue post surgical
trying to get that back to where it needs to be.
Basically almost every type of muscular skeletal condition out there.
It's very versatile, amazingly effective, and one of the greatest
things is safety. In other words, with the rapid release
you're not going to make.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Something worse right, and it's not painful. We've had quite
a few patients by and for themselves.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Oh yes, yeah, We've had several people who came into
our and said that was the only thing that really
helped them, you know, of everything that they had tried before,
the dramatic changes along those lines.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Yeah, and someone will say, well, I have this thumper,
a big massager at home. It's not the same thing, right,
not the same technology.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Zinc is one of the more important things to get
the maximum height. Boys have about a four inch variation
on what they're genetically what their height would be. But
if you don't get the proper nutrients. Zinc is one
of the biggest factors on that. If you get enough zinc,
that's probably the major thing on getting the amount.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Of growth our Some must have had enough zinc.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
I gave him a lot of Two sons came in
wanting to be basketball players, and they wanted their heights
to be taller, and one sent in anything to do
with supplements, and the other son started in on some
zinc supplements. About a year later, the other boys started.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Uh huh. Because his brother got taller.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Than his younger brother was outgrowing a younger brother started
taking off. He said, okay, I want that too. Matter
of fact, the mom said that they were all.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Over it, so they took his supplements.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
After that, he really took that.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
How do you test for zinc?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
It's a very specific lab that does hair analysis. The
hair analysis we found extremely accurate, very reliable for the
zinc and then also to see exactly what's happening with
the other mentals because you have to balance everything. I
had a sixteen year old girl who actually modeled because
of her hair, and she was obviously loved her hair
because she was flipping it all the time. I said,
(14:24):
we need a hair analysis. I saw her straighten up
and her eyes get a little bit wide. What are
you going to do with my hair? Don't touch my hair.
We were coming back to a room. I had a
patient I think this was just Destiny walk out of
the room who was completely bald. And as we're walking
by and I go and he just had his hair analysis.
She started the hyperventil late.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
So as they were cutting that little bit of hair.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
She wanted a mirror to make sure everything was going right.
But did we just take a.

Hello Mata, Hello Fada here, I am at Camp Granada.
Camp is very entertaining and they say we'll have some
fun if it stops raining. I went hiking with jose Fire.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
You're listening to the Voice of Health. But doctor Robert
Prather of Holistic Immigration, the most comprehensive wellness center in
the Meda.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Last dinner, he got toll Maine poisoning last night.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
After dinner.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
All the councils we're talking today about building healthy kids
from the inside out, and we started talking about how
to boost a chick it's immune system, and you talked
about the gut and how eighty percent of our health
is in our gut. So how early should we be
thinking about supporting a child's microbiome.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
And even in the womb. I mean making sure mom's
taking in good probiotics and probiotics, because the mom's going
to determine quite a bit on how the child, their gut,
you know, comes out. But even if they have problems.
We actually have natogen, which is a probiotics specifically for
(16:34):
babies because they have a different type of a gut bacteria,
so we can actually get started at that point.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
So their immune systems different, more thymus based, and then
their guts different.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Gut bacteria is different than an adults.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Is it hypersensitive?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
It is much more sensitive. So even the order that
you introduce foods into the diet makes a difference. So
looking at that and you know, being guided through that
is something that we can do at our office to
make sure that the baby doesn't have issues. So really
getting that type of guidance, getting those things as far
(17:11):
as set up, really as you can work with a
gut keep that under control throughout their life, then that
keeps problems at bay. Kids are more sensitive to parasites too,
so they can pick those up easier and having that checked.
And it used to be that spring and fall for
my parents was always a dewarming time.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, and Perion is big on that, right.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Per Simmons are very good along those lines. Figs are
absolutely wonderful.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Yeah, yeah, I didn't grow up with figs and.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah you're Italian and figs are like I know.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, my relatives have a fig tree vineyard or whatever
you call it, right right in Italy. Yeah, we had,
right right.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I mean, it's astely wonderful things. And one of the
things is that my grandparents, my mom was raised up
on figs, fig cookies, fig Newton types of things that
they were made actually locally. It wasn't the fig Newtons,
but it was actually a local brand and she was
encouraged to eat those because they have very strong anti
(18:20):
parasitic type of effects on that. So looking at different
types of foods can play a real big role. Cutting
down on the sugar so it wouldn't be as much,
but it's amazing how much sugar that kids actually take
in our ancestors would eat about seventy five grams of
fiber a day a male would and about fifteen grams
(18:42):
of sugar was the average diet for a male. Now
it's seventy five grams of sugar and fifteen grams of fiber,
which causes the gutnot to work correctly. So we really
need to make sure that the kids as they're eating
that they're cutting down on the amount of sugar and
getting the fiber into their system because that's going to
set the bacteria for their whole life, and it's very
(19:07):
important to keep their proper weight and their health. And
if I have one thing that's a supplement that everybody
should have, it's fiber. Fiber because fiber actually helps to
build the fermercuties, which is a type of bacteria, and
it's the firmacuties that allows the nutrients to get into
(19:27):
the body. The bacterials help to absorb the calories, and
when you eat sugar, the bacterios grow, which is why
people get fat. And then fiber actually keeps the nutrients
going into the system. So you need to have both,
but it needs to be a balance.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Yeah, and so what does holistic integration offer for children's
gut health to help that?
Speaker 4 (19:54):
Alot?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Oh, We've got really really excellent supplements designed specifically for
children to really keep the gut healthy.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Like a children's probiotic.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
We have a lot of kids who came in who
had collic. That was something that was really common and
so we would give those products to the children and
it was just short and miraculous, and that's what's how
that gets out under control.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Nice about children, they respond quickly.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
They respond quickly. Now they actually can go downhill quickly,
but they respond quickly if you can kind of get
The two things that I always really like to have
for diagnostics for kids is find out what's going on
on their bowls, So a stool kid is something that's
really important that should be done at least once a
year as far as I'm a child, if there's problems
(20:42):
more often. And then also a hair analysis.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
And what's that looking for for children.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
That's looking for mental balance and heavy metals. Heavy metals
is a big problem in children because they absorb it
much quicker than adults do.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Remember that when we were kids, of course, was a
big problem.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
And as they've done studies, the CDC did national studies
on children, they say sixty five percent of all children
have heavy metal toxicity and it does affect IQ and
causes health issues. So finding that and it's very easy
to detox it. It's not like you have to do
(21:23):
an IV or something like that to get it out.
We have very well proven types of ways of getting
the heavy metals out of the system.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
No needles involved like that.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Well, one of the things is you know, of course
blood work, but kids don't volunteer to that.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
So in some adults.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Yeah, we do blood work. We can do an awful
lot on children without getting into the blood work for
maintenance types of things. And of course when they do
it need it, then it's available, but we prefer to
go with some easy things. So when parents come in
and say, hey, I want some maintenance on my kids.
You know how they're doing. And I said, well, how
(22:03):
do they do with blood dwells? And they said, well,
they'd rather not have that. And I said, well, let's
see what we can't do with a hair analysis and
a stool kit. And they said, well, our kids do
grow their hair, yeah, and they so that would be
something that they don't have a problem with.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Well, let's talk about how does nutrition impact a child's
behavior and brain development.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Well, one thing I talked about that most people don't
know is the iodine.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I really like to test the iodine on everybody because
it is not just critical for the thyroid function, which
everybody knows, but it's also important for immune system, it's
important for especially brain development iodying. One of the things
that's interesting is they found that people who lived next
(22:53):
to the ocean get more iodine and there's a higher
IQ that's One of the reasons that they said, like
Europe did so well was because most of it was coast.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Yeah, and they have the you can get the seaweed
right to eat.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Now, Yeah, And so really making sure that their iodine
levels are up. And we live in a Goiter state,
which is a low iodine area, which had been a rule.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
We're not near the ocean, not near.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
The ocean, and the soil is depleted in iodine. So
making sure that their iodine is going to be something
that would really make a big difference for their immune system.
Of course, vitamin D plays a huge role along those lines.
Keeping the heavy metals out will be important and making
sure that those are detox out of the.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
System, and we do a very gentle detox.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Very gentle detox. And of course as you keep the
gut healthy and keep the fiber up, then you're going
to be absorbing the minerals much better and the vitamins.
So getting some nice multi vitamins, getting some nice foods
into the system. One of the more healthy ways if
you're taking supplementation is actually taking like organ meats. So
(24:09):
what you do is you feed liver to your child
every day.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Yeah. Now, I grew up my mom's liver. I loved it,
but oh I love kids.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah, it actually was sweet to me.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yeah, most kids don't.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Yeah. So we do have pills that are liver pills,
but they're very easy to take and really where you.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Go you can break them up and put them in
apple sauce. Right.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And then we have specialized supplements for children. We have
things to boost the immune system. We have things children's
immunipar conduplex. There's a lot of different types of products
that children will take and have some really good effects
as far as on their health and well being.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
So yeah, and the other thing we do is homeopathy,
which is liquid.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
And homeopathy really should be the way that any type
of disease should be treated first with children. When people think,
you know, people give them pharmaceuticals, and it's important to
know that pharmaceuticals have not been tested on children, right,
so we really don't know what they do. And pharmaceuticals
are always will have long term types of negative effects
(25:14):
on the health of a child. So if you can
be working with homeopathy and nutritional you'll find much better
results with children.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Yeah, so what are some key foods And you've kind
of talked about the nutrients every joint child needs.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
You know which ones do well. It's interesting. Royally, who
is the founder of Standard Process, said he could feed
the world with three things. Liver, beets, and yellow vegetables.
Those are really needs to eat that well. Actually, yeah,
I liked all of it.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, but you're never a kid.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
But yellow vegetables are very important. You've got to keep
their vitamin au, soper.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Cud liver or kind of.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
See it was at Orange Flavor and right they took it.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
So the cod liver oil you're getting the benefits of all.
It's actually the strongest liver you can get. Yeah, So
cod liver oil is very strong along those lines. Then
you also got some good vitamin A into it, so
it was really good. So you got two of those.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Yeah, all right, we'll be right back building healthy kids

Robert Praither, host the Voice of Health Radio.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
CZC did a study on children and found that sixty
five percent of all children had heavy metal toxicity that
they could find sixty five for.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
So do they absorb it?
Speaker 2 (28:29):
They have absorbit faster and it actually will then go
into the blood brain barrier easier than children, and boys
will absorb it and go to the brain quicker than girls.
So boys are more sensitive to heavy metal toxicity. And
really one of the easiest types of checks that we
do on babies and children just to get their health back.
(28:51):
Children respond very quickly. So if you just get their
hair analysis balanced out, get the heavy metals out. So
if you're looking to make your kids smarter and better behaved,
I've had kids go from special ed to honors just
by getting their heavy metals out and balancing out their minerals.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
So why is a GI stool kit helpful for ADHD.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Parasites are a huge factor. There was a young boy
who the mom brought in and said that the school
had told her that they want to put her child
in a special education class and for him to be
able to come back, he had to be on an amphetamine.
She said, I know my child's smart. I know there's
something wrong. I asked if the drugs would fix it,
and they said no. She said, that doesn't sound like
(29:34):
an answer. I want to find out what's wrong with
my son. We did all the work up, we did
a GI stool kit and he had parasites big time.
So we treated him for the parasites. He became a
straight A student. She said, I felt so good when
I had that parent teacher conference. I think I didn't
(29:55):
argue with the results.

I'm Lisa Prether, and you're listening to the Voice of
(31:45):
Health with doctor Robert Prether of Holistic Integration, where we
get to the root cause of your health issue. We're
talking today about building healthy kids from the inside out.
You know we're married, right, we are. Sometimes we don't
mention that on the show, and.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
We raised three kids.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Do we have a new patient come in and say,
you know, I was wondering what his wife thought because they,
you know.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Seem to have a pretty good chemistry there. I'm wondering
if something on the side was going on. So, yeah,
is there a little jealousy there or not.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
But our kids, you know, we were buying the organic food.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
And back when it really wasn't that.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Yeah, popular could hardly find it, and they would say,
I remember her little child or daughter, Oh you know,
she'd just say it was organic, I'm not eating it.
And now they all are.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Actually stricter than I know. And we had to force
some parents.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
If their kids are saying I'm not going to eat that,
they will. They will will. So let's talk about your infections.
You know, can reoccurring infections be a sign of deeper
imbalances and how do we deal with those at holistic Integration.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Sure, And one of the things is use station tubes.
So they're shorter in children and they don't have the
drainage that adults do, so they have more problems with
the years. And basically what occurs is that they have
gut problems. So again going back to the gut, small
intestine and the EU station tubes are made up of
the same type of muscle, So if the small intestine
becomes inflamed, the ear becomes inflamed. Also, also a lot
(33:30):
of the times that they have earaches is that they're
teething and they have a lot of inflammation into there
and it backs up. And then if it backs up,
and it's just like with any type of fluid, if
it accumulates over a period of time, it can start
to grow backtery or you can get viral infections that
will actually hit the years. So those types of things
(33:50):
can kind of get it going. And we have some
excellent things. Matter of fact, when people come in with
kids who are in pain and just even almost ysterical
because of their ear pain, they leave and they're out
of pain, and parents are like wiring parents lined up
at the good question because this works so well. And
(34:14):
what we have is, of course, we give them aconite,
bentle Donna and Camomeal, which are homeopathic ABC standard type
of thing that helps to relax the ears. We also
give them probiotics, you know, to ease up the gut.
So we go after the ears, We go after the
gut to get those relieved. We also do chiropractic adjustments,
(34:35):
which makes a big difference. We have some homeopathics for
the teething that help pretty very quickly, and then we
can also adjust the ear where we have Galbreath's maneuver
or some other ear adjustments too. Then we have diathermy,
which is a big magnet and it clears out the
(34:55):
congestion in the ear. So those things we can put
together other end before, you know, as they go through
the visit. By the time that we're done, the child's
doing great.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Yeah, and they can sit on mommy's lap on the diethermy.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
And of course one of the things that is done
is antibotics. And we're really in a post antibiotic world
now where most of the bacteria are resistant, and also
the antibotics kill the gut floor, which actually sets up
more issues. So if you can break the cycle of
going into the antibotics in the first place, you're going
(35:31):
to save that from becoming a constant problem, which is
where you're going to develop problems. And if a child
before the age of five has six or more antibiotics,
the chances of them having some learning disabilities are astronomically higher.
So the gut brain connection, if the gut is working well,
(35:53):
then you don't actually get the learning disabilities as you would.
You know, So keeping that healthier, saving yourself awful lot
of problems when you're dealing with children.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Yeah, what about strep throat?
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Strep throat, of course, one of the big things that
you always have to worry about is strip throat doesn't
go down to the kidneys because then it can become
scarlet fever, which can damage the kidneys over a long
period of time. It can also go to the heart.
But we do have nice things naturally for a strep
throat to keep it from becoming a problem, and then
you watch it and if it becomes too much, there
(36:27):
are antibotics that are times that are necessary. But one
of the nice things is we have homeopathics that keep
any negative effects of the antibiotics occurring, and then we
can actually make the antibotic work better with some of
the supplements we use. In other words, it's not ever
a US or them. You know, you use sometimes sometimes
you combine them, but you always try to do the
(36:50):
natural remedies first and make sure those work. And then
if you do have to go to a pharmaceutical, you
always have it as short as possible. But then you're
also supporting the body during that time so you don't
have issues. So again that's why we have holistic integration.
One we look at the whole body to know how
to work with it, and then also with that you
(37:13):
also have the integration when we know when we need
to refer out, when there needs to be pharmaceuticals. And
we look at an eighty twenty split, eighty percent of
all healthcare should be structure function based, twenty percent should
be disease care based. For kids, it's more like ninety
(37:34):
five percent should be structure function based and five percent
should be disease care based.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
So when should parents consider, you know, herbal medicine or
homeopathy for their children.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
They should consider it as the go to really that's
where things need to be in chiropractic. Yeah, chiropractic really
makes a big difference as far as on the health
of the children. And then also acupuncture. We don't like
to use needles on kids, but we have lasers and
then also we have a powder that we can put
(38:08):
on kids. One of the magic points if someone has
an infection, as we've had those before, Spleen twenty one.
Spleen twenty one is sort of the go to acupuncture
point that can really relieve any type of infection. A
matter of fact, people can have a fever, feeling really bad.
They can come in, we give them things to take,
(38:31):
but then we also make sure the adjustment's in place
and do anything along those lines, and then we treat
Spleen twenty one and people actually leave feeling better. It's
not like you're going in for an antibiotic and then
you got to wait three days before you feel it.
It's right. Then, yeah, that you see the changes that
actually occur. So acupuncture points are really good and very
(38:52):
effective on kids. And of course, like I said, we
do laser so the kids don't really mind it.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Right, they like the needle. When they get in high school,
they think it's cool.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Then they think it's cool and you have to take
a picture to send to all their fronts, right, because
that's standard for any of our high school you know,
some adults too. Oh this is so cool our.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Daughter's soccer team. I just yeah, love that acupuncture, Oh yeah,
coming in. So the treatments that benefit children that we
have at Holistic Integration. You've touched on the chiropractic, the diathermy.
You know, the diathermy is a nice gentle detaxifier for kids.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Yes, what it does is it opens up the circulation,
so it opens up the arteries of veins, and then
it also opens up the lymphatic tissue. The way that
it does that is the magnet will change the current
around those and cause them to dilate and increase blood
flow and increase lymps system. Diothermy, as you look it
(39:53):
up in physiology, it's supposed to be a heating device,
you know that. They say it's for heating. It's really not.
It opens up circulation. Anything that would improve with greater
circulation or greater lymphatic flow, then that's something that Then
that's the time to actually use it. And it's just
whenever you're talking about infections, it's just like a stream.
(40:16):
You have to think about it as a stream. Fast
moving creek has crystal clear water, something you can usually
drink out of. If it's stagnant and it's not moving,
it starts to kind of smell and develop all this mold, bacteria,
dead flies in it, all that good stuff.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah, so I think of that nice flowing river. I
want to touch too.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
Well.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
You touched on supplementation homeopathy, how important it is, especially
for children. Cranial sacral is something we offer.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Oh yeah, kids absolutely love that. We have kids who
are hyperactive that are coming in. They say, oh, they're
not going to sit still for anything. Megan starts in
them on the cranial sacral and then they just kind
of like, oh my gosh, these kind of drifting off
and just kind of, you know, still mellow me.
Speaker 1 (41:07):

(42:12):
at six thirty pm. You'll hear from doctor Robert Praither,
host of the Voice of Health Radio.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
We've had a lot of cases of low irons. We
had an interesting situation where we had a patient came
in and she had brought in her daughter. She just
wasn't performing, wasn't thinking very well, and that was unusual
for her because she was a very intelligent and very
active young lady. And we had done a blood test
on her and found that she was low and iron.
(42:38):
So we had given her some iron, got that up
to par with some other types of things and saw
everything turn around. The mom is a cross country coach,
and she thought that might be something that she should
have checked out on her on the cross country team.
She suggested that don and they tested out the whole team,
which was about sixty girls. Every one of them was
(43:00):
almost in a point where they could actually use a
blood transfusion.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Wow, the iron was so low.
Speaker 2 (43:05):
Their iron was so low. There wasn't anyone who was
normal on any girl on the cost country team that
was actually in the normal range. So they started them
on an iron program supplemented. It was the first time
that that team had actually made state, and everyone was
talking about, what have you done so different for this
(43:26):
team that has made such a huge difference in their performance,
And it was just basically that they were all low
in iron, which is understandable if you understand the activity
of iron. These girls are in a growth period which
is a high demand. They've just started menstruating, and then
they also are in a very active type of sport
(43:47):
and iron is actually eaten up in physical activity, and
if you're already low, then that actually puts it into
a real problem. So there was absolutely a huge difference
on the performance of the girls. Not only was there
a better performance in the cost Country, but also academically
that they saw a big difference. Interestingly enough, one of
the big things that the mom's told the cost Country coaches,
(44:10):
my daughter is so much sweeter. They aren't grumpy, they
don't go up to their room and hide, and they
actually talked at this upper table. So not only were
they better academically performing athletically performing, but also on their
behavior was just much better and they were much happier.
I usually find that there is physiological aspects to behavioral problems,
(44:35):
so finding out what those are is a huge type
of factor. But this just really impressed everyone in the
whole program. This is something that is very common. They've
done studies on young gals in athletics. The clinical studies
have actually shown that at least eighty percent of them
are dramatically low on their iron.

children's health and reserve your seat by calling three one
(45:16):

the Voice of Health radio dot com. Stop really, you're
listening to the Voice of Health with doctor Robert Prather
of Holistic Integration, where our mission is restoring hope to
(45:40):
our patients. We're talking today about building healthy kids from
the inside out and Dutch Brayder. Are there specific red
flag ingredients parents should avoid?
Speaker 2 (45:53):
Yes, really, if you're looking at anything that you can't pronounce,
you probably should need it.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
And then you got all those dyes.
Speaker 2 (46:02):
Sure.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
Well, I mean one thing that's starting to remove, right.
Speaker 2 (46:06):
I had a patient who moved from Canada and she
loves Oreos cookies and she went to buy some here
and she just was kind of like, well, I wonder
if it's the same. And she looked at the ingredients
and it's like, oh, these aren't the same Oreos that
I buy up in Canada, and they aren't.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
Yeah, lot more ingredients.
Speaker 2 (46:29):
Yeah, there's all these chemicals in there and all these
different types of dyes and stuff that they don't allow
in any other country. So our food supply is really bad.
But one of the things is we went to what
was it called.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
Goosta goost the market.
Speaker 2 (46:45):
Goosta Market, and they had cookies there and those were amazing.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
Yeah, you had to have one.
Speaker 2 (46:52):
I had to have one and we split it. But
it's all natural mm as we ate it. It's something
that's made local. And when you get into if you're
looking at foods, what you want to do is not
go down all the aisles and buy all the processed foods.
So if it's made by craft, if it's made by
(47:12):
all these different companies, they're probably going to poison it. Yeah,
just figure that. So what you want to do is
you want to buy fresh things. You want to make
a lot of it.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
But I mean stay on the outside.
Speaker 2 (47:24):
Stay on the outside, and then buy bakery items that's
made local, you know, without any chemicals, high quality types
of things. You could tell the quality of the cooking,
do you know what I mean? And those types of
things are available, so you don't have to deprive yourself
and they actually tastes better if your kids are used
to that type of thing. And then they go over
(47:44):
to the neighbors and they eat something that's processed, they're
going to kind of want to spit it out. It's
what you get used to. And if you develop your
kids along those lines, they're actually going to like the
things that are good for them instead of all.
Speaker 1 (47:59):
The Yeah, but also a lot of that is addictive.
Speaker 2 (48:04):
It's very addictive once you start on it, then it
takes a while to be able to work out. They
design them to be addictive. Yeah, so freedom as all
those types of things.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
Well, let's talk I want to talk a little bit
about physical activity. You know, how much physical activities should
kids be getting daily.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
They should be getting two to three hours of physical
activity a day. They need to play, and one of
the things is being outside. So there's a neurodevelopment that
needs to occur and they need to see like the
broad horizons.
Speaker 1 (48:37):
Right. Yeah, they're at school and they're looking at paper
and yeah, they're not looking unless they're out at recess.
Right for n PE class, You're right.
Speaker 2 (48:48):
And it's not proper for neurodevelopment. You're not going to
get the proper development that they need. The kids need
to play, they need to be outside.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
Even in the winter. I would get out there with
my grandson's and we build.
Speaker 2 (49:02):
It was cold, but they did so much better. You
could just see.
Speaker 1 (49:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (49:09):
And if kids are having it affects their behavior, affects
their brain development, it affects their social skills you don't
want to have. In other words, kids need to be
you know, free it up. Yeah, live more natural.
Speaker 1 (49:23):
And when they get home from school, getting out outside. Sure, yeah,
getting on their bikes. You've been fishing with our grandsons.
I have it to our eight and six and they
love it.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
Oh, and it's very relaxing. I can just see them
just kind of.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
And yeah, I get some focused.
Speaker 2 (49:39):
Yeah, And just having that type of thing outdoors is
just fairly important. And of course sunshine doesn't It's not
just vitamin D. There's also neural development that occurs. There's
chemicals that we don't yet know that occur because of
the sunshine. It goes through the eyes, It goes through
the eye, actually goes into the pineal gland, which helps
(50:00):
to set up the entire inderconsistent. So we're made to
have sun exposure and if they're not having it, they
aren't going to get the development that they should.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
So what are the consequences of too much screen time
on a child's physical development.
Speaker 2 (50:14):
Well, it's interesting because all of the big software presidents
and all that type of thing, they don't actually let
their kids have screen time.
Speaker 1 (50:23):
The CEOs and these software coming up.
Speaker 2 (50:25):
Yeah, they're like, oh no, I don't let my kids
do that, but they hire people to find out how
to get kids addicted to it. They're actually trying to
neurologically read wire your kids. So your kid is addicted
to the screen, and what it is, it's a dopamine response.
So what they're trying to do is get that dopamine
(50:47):
going in children. They'll actually change the neurochemistry of the brain.
The brain will not develop properly and it will always
it develops an addictive personality and also anti.
Speaker 1 (50:59):
Social right, they get disconnected.
Speaker 2 (51:02):
There's a disconnect on that. They're not going to be
well rounded people. So really, when they're young, they should
have no screen time.
Speaker 1 (51:09):
And you know what about structurally, they're even seeing an evolution.
Oh we've never seen it in the spine.
Speaker 2 (51:17):
Yeah, we've never seen what we call a knife class
occipical perturbance. I had never seen it, matter of fact,
it was unknown until the Actually, but you have your
occipal perturbance, and then there's like this knife that has
grown from it.
Speaker 1 (51:30):
So that's the bait. I'm going to Layman's terms here,
face of the skull yekull. Something's developing new, right because
of the head forward.
Speaker 2 (51:41):
We have never seen the ushold. Guys get together and
we talk about the changes that we see in the
spine that we've never ever seen before, and we know
that there's just not only is it in the spine,
so it's showing up in the structure, but it's also
means that it's showing up in the physiology too. And
(52:01):
so there are some real problems that are developing in
the way that we are handling our children, and our
society is developing them and they're being trained to be
consumer slaves who can't think on their own and are
just looked at as slaves to produce profit. And this
(52:23):
type of thing really needs to change. We need to
have a whole.
Speaker 1 (52:27):
Real way connecting children.
Speaker 2 (52:29):
Yeah as adults. And it's hard when you're a parent
and all of society is one way and you're trying
to develop your child, and you know, it's almost like
you want to take them out of society to protect them.
But it would be nice if society actually reinforced and
we get rid of all this junk that these massive
(52:50):
companies are actually have decided that they're going to do
to our children. Yeah, it's criminal and they know it.
Speaker 1 (52:56):
Yeah, So what's one change every family can make today
to move toward a more holistic lifestyle.
Speaker 2 (53:04):
Regular outdoors exercises is critical. Exercise makes up for a
world of visues. So making sure your child is getting activity,
getting activity outside and getting two to three hours of
exercise a day.
Speaker 1 (53:18):
Right, And it doesn't have to be you know, gymnastics class.
Speaker 2 (53:22):
No, No, yeah, it should be play. There should be
some you have to have where it's not somebody telling
you what to do, but you're actually inventing things to
do where you know, like, oh this stick is a
lot of fun. Let's go play with a stick, or hey,
let's see where the b goes, you know, and then
you make ant Yeah, make up all these stories and
(53:45):
just there let their imagination go. That's that's critical.
Speaker 1 (53:48):
Like to watch ants, are you're a.
Speaker 2 (53:50):
Kid, I like to watch ants now. I find them fascinating.
Matter of fact, I go out there with the kids
and I'm kind of as much of nerd as they
are well.
Speaker 1 (54:02):
On that note, thank you, doctor Praither, very informative us always.

doctor Robert Praither.
Hi, I'm Lisa Praither and welcome to the Voice of
Health with our host, doctor Robert Braither of Holistic Integration,
where lives are changed every day through the natural approach
to healthcare. Well, today we're talking about building healthy kids
from the inside out. It's that time of year school's starting. Yes,
(00:35):
hopefully a lot of kids got a lot of vitamin
D out there in the sun over the summer months.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
That's a real good way to build healthy goods.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Hopefully they spend a lot of time at the pool
and we're active and off their screens, and we're going
to talk about all that and nutrition and so let's
start with doctor Praither. How do you define holistic health
in the contexts of children's well being.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Well, a lot of people sit there and think, well,
you know, their kids, they're healthy, but that's not actually true.
It wasn't that long ago that children would die young.
You know that it was a very common thing with
a higher mortality. Yeah, and understanding that children have a
different immune system than adults, so they're more susceptible to
(01:21):
things because a child has to have a different immune
system because they're growing with our type of immune system,
which is stronger, it wouldn't allow growth. In other words,
the body would be responding to it. So like we
have a immune system that's based off of bone marrow,
theirs is based off of the thymus.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Oh, interesting, So children's immune system is based on the thymis.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
On the thymis, and yes, when a child actually reaches puberty,
their thymus actually shrinks and then the bone marrow takes
over a lot of the immune system. So it's a
different type of a almost like a different type of creature.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Is that why you like to have bone marrow?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I just like the taste. But yeah, so you know,
looking at kids and understanding how things are different along
those lines and keeping them healthy it's very important. But
it's just like with adults. You try to keep children balanced,
you know, you keep their structure balance, you keep their
(02:26):
physiology balance, structure, function, care and balance is the definition
of homeostasis, and homeostasis is the definition of health. So
kids need just as much diagnostics and can have an
awful lot of problems, and if you can keep them healthy,
that will set a pattern for the rest of their lives.
(02:46):
And so talking about you know, what's involved with that
is a very important part, and I actually encourage people
to start before they even conceive to kind of get
the body ready and those that you know.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Too, And what do you recommend for that.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Well, diagnostics, you know, you check for hair analysis, heavy metals,
make sure there's no heavy metals.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
And both the male and the female, both the male
and the females, carrying the child.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Right, and then keeping the woman's health up. You know,
as you're talking about, you know, developing a healthy child.
One of the most important things is iodine level. So
an iodine level in a mom is going to determine
how smart the kid is. Interesting, so making sure that
(03:36):
there's plenty of iodine in the system will play a
very big role. So that's one thing. Vitamin D. You know,
keeping all that up and testing all that out. The
more tests that you have beforehand as you're carrying the child,
the better. And then the big thing after that is
building their immune system and getting the proper nutrients. And
(03:56):
that's breastfeeding. So if a child is breastfed, the chances
of them having learning disabilities to increase quite dramatically. Add ADHD, autism,
all those things go down. So also allergies if they're breastfed,
they don't have the allergies that.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Just the bonding they talk about.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Well, it also increases intelligence. So as moms gaze into
baby's eyes, there is a neurodevelopment that actually occurs. It's
very interesting, but there is actually a like a laser
that goes between a mom's eyes and a baby's eyes
(04:39):
that doesn't do that with anybody else, And there's a
tremendous amount of neurodevelopment that occurs because of that. And
you know, it's just amazing what occurs. The baby's saliva
actually tells the mom's body what the baby needs nutritionally.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Just it's like a miracle.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It's definitely a miracle. Yeah, And then it transports that
into you know, then the breast milk will actually shift
according to the need. They even find that if more
than one child, like an older child, is also breastfeeding,
the milk will change from child to child.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Wow. Interesting. And I was just thinking of the benefits
of the colostrum, right, that's the first mouth.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Right, yeah, because that actually sets the gut immune system.
So the mom basically provides the immune system for the
baby in the first year, because a child's immune system
really doesn't develop until two years old, so they're really
dependent and you know, really breastfeeding should be at least
two years.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
So what if for some reason the mom can't breastfeed,
what would you suggest.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
There are we can't actually help you. We have formulas
for that that can actually work. So there are ways
to actually make up for that, because there are situations
that occur, but definitely mom's breast milk is the best.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah. Now, what are some natural ways then to boost
a child's immune system?
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Well, any age you look at the gut, eighty percent
of the immune systems around the gut. So one of
the things we do is a stool kid and see
what's going on in the gut and then getting the
proper gut bacteria into them. It really makes a big
difference along those lines.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
You know, one thing too when we open the show,
and I was thinking about, you know, with children, a
lot of times they can't verbalize how they feel, right,
and so it's very important to be observing them and
really listening to them, you know, watching them. I'm sorry
(06:51):
I'm bouncing back, but I think this is really important.
What kind of things should a parent, you know, look
for with the child that maybe something isn't quite right.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Well, I mean, of course, there's a lot of different
types of areas. If they don't sleep well. You know,
sleep is a pretty good indicator of how healthy a
child is. So one of the things that we do
and what we tell parents as they go through this,
the parents that the moms that go through the prenatal
types of things, the babies sleep through the night, you know,
(07:27):
I mean right away, and that's something that they all say, Yeah,
my child is actually sleeping through the night, and that
shows a sign of a healthy you know, that the
baby's actually doing well. Making eye contact very important. Is
there any swelling in the God? Does a baby cry
without any reason? Crying and being oftentimes you know, really
(07:49):
a child that you know, a difficult child. Things that
the kid is having trouble with that's an expression of
something that's wrong that there is an ation you and
then working with that child and getting it fixed as
one of the things that you need to do.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
And yeah, I was just thinking too, as that child
grows up too and they're verbal, but there's still things
that you can look for right on the skin back
of the arm.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
If there's yeah, bum spot there there can be a
vitamin A deficiency. Their nails is a good way to
kind of see. If they have little white pockets on
their nails, that's a sign of zinc deficiency.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
And when you say white pockets, what do you mean?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Yeah, you know how you look at this and there's
there's little pockets, white pockets sometimes that they have that
or the nails aren't forming zinc deficiency. That's usually a
zinc deficiency that goes on the skin. Do they have allergies,
that's a sign that something's not wrong.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
And dark circles, dark.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Circles under the eyes. You can look at the eyelids
see if there's anemia, you know, because it's not bright
red underneath. So there's there's a lot of things that
as I look at kids can actually see. Chiropractic is
a very important thing. Are they are their shoulders un leveled?
Because structural effects function function effects, structural right. So like
(09:16):
our grandsons just love to.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Get adjusted, Oh yeah they do.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I mean that's one of their favorite things to do.
And my nephews and all the kids. It's interesting all
the kids that come into our office. You know, when
I was adjusting and now that doctor Dodd's doing mostly adjusting.
Kids love love it. Yeah, they're like it's uh. I
had one dad who finally had to give in to
his son because he would bring him along with his adjustments,
(09:43):
and the boy got adjusted once and ever since then
he has to make it a point if he's taking
the son with him, he has to make sure that
he gets adjusted. Otherwise he's just you know, he doesn't,
he's not.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
They know it. They know that it makes a.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Difference, right, Well, feels good.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, and it's affecting their whole nervous system sure, which
is growing and reflexes are maturing, and that's all part
of it.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Well, it's like the dad said, what I understand because
you know, I can feel the difference, and so I
know he does too.
Speaker 1 (10:15):

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Carpal tunnel, shoulder issues where you have restrictions even like
shoulder rotator, cuffy, problems with the pains in the elbow
either golf elbow, tennis elbow. All help out tremendously.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Neck pain, low back pain.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Headaches, extremely excellent for headaches, siatica, performance syndromes, scoliosis even Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
And we've used it on TMJ EVENMJ we had that
big mass that or muscle that we need to release.
Neat conditions planar fesciitis.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
To Patron's contraction. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Rappid release has five heads on it, so you can
use specifically. The smaller heads would be for someone you.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Know, for smaller areas, for the hand, type of problems
along those lines, any type of scar tissue post surgical
trying to get that back to where it needs to be.
Basically almost every type of muscular skeletal condition out there.
It's very versatile, amazingly effective, and one of the greatest
things is safety. In other words, with the rapid release
you're not going to make.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Something worse right, and it's not painful. We've had quite
a few patients by and for themselves.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Oh yes, yeah, We've had several people who came into
our and said that was the only thing that really
helped them, you know, of everything that they had tried before,
the dramatic changes along those lines.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Yeah, and someone will say, well, I have this thumper,
a big massager at home. It's not the same thing, right,
not the same technology.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Zinc is one of the more important things to get
the maximum height. Boys have about a four inch variation
on what they're genetically what their height would be. But
if you don't get the proper nutrients. Zinc is one
of the biggest factors on that. If you get enough zinc,
that's probably the major thing on getting the amount.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Of growth our Some must have had enough zinc.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
I gave him a lot of Two sons came in
wanting to be basketball players, and they wanted their heights
to be taller, and one sent in anything to do
with supplements, and the other son started in on some
zinc supplements. About a year later, the other boys started.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Uh huh. Because his brother got taller.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Than his younger brother was outgrowing a younger brother started
taking off. He said, okay, I want that too. Matter
of fact, the mom said that they were all.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Over it, so they took his supplements.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
After that, he really took that.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
How do you test for zinc?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
It's a very specific lab that does hair analysis. The
hair analysis we found extremely accurate, very reliable for the
zinc and then also to see exactly what's happening with
the other mentals because you have to balance everything. I
had a sixteen year old girl who actually modeled because
of her hair, and she was obviously loved her hair
because she was flipping it all the time. I said,
(14:24):
we need a hair analysis. I saw her straighten up
and her eyes get a little bit wide. What are
you going to do with my hair? Don't touch my hair.
We were coming back to a room. I had a
patient I think this was just Destiny walk out of
the room who was completely bald. And as we're walking
by and I go and he just had his hair analysis.
She started the hyperventil late.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
So as they were cutting that little bit of hair.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
She wanted a mirror to make sure everything was going right.
But did we just take a.

Hello Mata, Hello Fada here, I am at Camp Granada.
Camp is very entertaining and they say we'll have some
fun if it stops raining. I went hiking with jose Fire.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
You're listening to the Voice of Health. But doctor Robert
Prather of Holistic Immigration, the most comprehensive wellness center in
the Meda.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Last dinner, he got toll Maine poisoning last night.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
After dinner.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
All the councils we're talking today about building healthy kids
from the inside out, and we started talking about how
to boost a chick it's immune system, and you talked
about the gut and how eighty percent of our health
is in our gut. So how early should we be
thinking about supporting a child's microbiome.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
And even in the womb. I mean making sure mom's
taking in good probiotics and probiotics, because the mom's going
to determine quite a bit on how the child, their gut,
you know, comes out. But even if they have problems.
We actually have natogen, which is a probiotics specifically for
(16:34):
babies because they have a different type of a gut bacteria,
so we can actually get started at that point.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
So their immune systems different, more thymus based, and then
their guts different.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Gut bacteria is different than an adults.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Is it hypersensitive?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
It is much more sensitive. So even the order that
you introduce foods into the diet makes a difference. So
looking at that and you know, being guided through that
is something that we can do at our office to
make sure that the baby doesn't have issues. So really
getting that type of guidance, getting those things as far
(17:11):
as set up, really as you can work with a
gut keep that under control throughout their life, then that
keeps problems at bay. Kids are more sensitive to parasites too,
so they can pick those up easier and having that checked.
And it used to be that spring and fall for
my parents was always a dewarming time.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, and Perion is big on that, right.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Per Simmons are very good along those lines. Figs are
absolutely wonderful.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Yeah, yeah, I didn't grow up with figs and.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah you're Italian and figs are like I know.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, my relatives have a fig tree vineyard or whatever
you call it, right right in Italy. Yeah, we had,
right right.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I mean, it's astely wonderful things. And one of the
things is that my grandparents, my mom was raised up
on figs, fig cookies, fig Newton types of things that
they were made actually locally. It wasn't the fig Newtons,
but it was actually a local brand and she was
encouraged to eat those because they have very strong anti
(18:20):
parasitic type of effects on that. So looking at different
types of foods can play a real big role. Cutting
down on the sugar so it wouldn't be as much,
but it's amazing how much sugar that kids actually take
in our ancestors would eat about seventy five grams of
fiber a day a male would and about fifteen grams
(18:42):
of sugar was the average diet for a male. Now
it's seventy five grams of sugar and fifteen grams of fiber,
which causes the gutnot to work correctly. So we really
need to make sure that the kids as they're eating
that they're cutting down on the amount of sugar and
getting the fiber into their system because that's going to
set the bacteria for their whole life, and it's very
(19:07):
important to keep their proper weight and their health. And
if I have one thing that's a supplement that everybody
should have, it's fiber. Fiber because fiber actually helps to
build the fermercuties, which is a type of bacteria, and
it's the firmacuties that allows the nutrients to get into
(19:27):
the body. The bacterials help to absorb the calories, and
when you eat sugar, the bacterios grow, which is why
people get fat. And then fiber actually keeps the nutrients
going into the system. So you need to have both,
but it needs to be a balance.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Yeah, and so what does holistic integration offer for children's
gut health to help that?
Speaker 4 (19:54):
Alot?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Oh, We've got really really excellent supplements designed specifically for
children to really keep the gut healthy.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Like a children's probiotic.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
We have a lot of kids who came in who
had collic. That was something that was really common and
so we would give those products to the children and
it was just short and miraculous, and that's what's how
that gets out under control.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Nice about children, they respond quickly.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
They respond quickly. Now they actually can go downhill quickly,
but they respond quickly if you can kind of get
The two things that I always really like to have
for diagnostics for kids is find out what's going on
on their bowls, So a stool kid is something that's
really important that should be done at least once a
year as far as I'm a child, if there's problems
(20:42):
more often. And then also a hair analysis.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
And what's that looking for for children.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
That's looking for mental balance and heavy metals. Heavy metals
is a big problem in children because they absorb it
much quicker than adults do.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Remember that when we were kids, of course, was a
big problem.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
And as they've done studies, the CDC did national studies
on children, they say sixty five percent of all children
have heavy metal toxicity and it does affect IQ and
causes health issues. So finding that and it's very easy
to detox it. It's not like you have to do
(21:23):
an IV or something like that to get it out.
We have very well proven types of ways of getting
the heavy metals out of the system.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
No needles involved like that.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Well, one of the things is you know, of course
blood work, but kids don't volunteer to that.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
So in some adults.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Yeah, we do blood work. We can do an awful
lot on children without getting into the blood work for
maintenance types of things. And of course when they do
it need it, then it's available, but we prefer to
go with some easy things. So when parents come in
and say, hey, I want some maintenance on my kids.
You know how they're doing. And I said, well, how
(22:03):
do they do with blood dwells? And they said, well,
they'd rather not have that. And I said, well, let's
see what we can't do with a hair analysis and
a stool kit. And they said, well, our kids do
grow their hair, yeah, and they so that would be
something that they don't have a problem with.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Well, let's talk about how does nutrition impact a child's
behavior and brain development.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Well, one thing I talked about that most people don't
know is the iodine.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I really like to test the iodine on everybody because
it is not just critical for the thyroid function, which
everybody knows, but it's also important for immune system, it's
important for especially brain development iodying. One of the things
that's interesting is they found that people who lived next
(22:53):
to the ocean get more iodine and there's a higher
IQ that's One of the reasons that they said, like
Europe did so well was because most of it was coast.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Yeah, and they have the you can get the seaweed
right to eat.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Now, Yeah, And so really making sure that their iodine
levels are up. And we live in a Goiter state,
which is a low iodine area, which had been a rule.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
We're not near the ocean, not near.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
The ocean, and the soil is depleted in iodine. So
making sure that their iodine is going to be something
that would really make a big difference for their immune system.
Of course, vitamin D plays a huge role along those lines.
Keeping the heavy metals out will be important and making
sure that those are detox out of the.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
System, and we do a very gentle detox.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Very gentle detox. And of course as you keep the
gut healthy and keep the fiber up, then you're going
to be absorbing the minerals much better and the vitamins.
So getting some nice multi vitamins, getting some nice foods
into the system. One of the more healthy ways if
you're taking supplementation is actually taking like organ meats. So
(24:09):
what you do is you feed liver to your child
every day.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Yeah. Now, I grew up my mom's liver. I loved it,
but oh I love kids.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah, it actually was sweet to me.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yeah, most kids don't.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Yeah. So we do have pills that are liver pills,
but they're very easy to take and really where you.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Go you can break them up and put them in
apple sauce. Right.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And then we have specialized supplements for children. We have
things to boost the immune system. We have things children's
immunipar conduplex. There's a lot of different types of products
that children will take and have some really good effects
as far as on their health and well being.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
So yeah, and the other thing we do is homeopathy,
which is liquid.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
And homeopathy really should be the way that any type
of disease should be treated first with children. When people think,
you know, people give them pharmaceuticals, and it's important to
know that pharmaceuticals have not been tested on children, right,
so we really don't know what they do. And pharmaceuticals
are always will have long term types of negative effects
(25:14):
on the health of a child. So if you can
be working with homeopathy and nutritional you'll find much better
results with children.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Yeah, so what are some key foods And you've kind
of talked about the nutrients every joint child needs.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
You know which ones do well. It's interesting. Royally, who
is the founder of Standard Process, said he could feed
the world with three things. Liver, beets, and yellow vegetables.
Those are really needs to eat that well. Actually, yeah,
I liked all of it.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, but you're never a kid.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
But yellow vegetables are very important. You've got to keep
their vitamin au, soper.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Cud liver or kind of.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
See it was at Orange Flavor and right they took it.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
So the cod liver oil you're getting the benefits of all.
It's actually the strongest liver you can get. Yeah, So
cod liver oil is very strong along those lines. Then
you also got some good vitamin A into it, so
it was really good. So you got two of those.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Yeah, all right, we'll be right back building healthy kids

Robert Praither, host the Voice of Health Radio.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
CZC did a study on children and found that sixty
five percent of all children had heavy metal toxicity that
they could find sixty five for.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
So do they absorb it?
Speaker 2 (28:29):
They have absorbit faster and it actually will then go
into the blood brain barrier easier than children, and boys
will absorb it and go to the brain quicker than girls.
So boys are more sensitive to heavy metal toxicity. And
really one of the easiest types of checks that we
do on babies and children just to get their health back.
(28:51):
Children respond very quickly. So if you just get their
hair analysis balanced out, get the heavy metals out. So
if you're looking to make your kids smarter and better behaved,
I've had kids go from special ed to honors just
by getting their heavy metals out and balancing out their minerals.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
So why is a GI stool kit helpful for ADHD.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Parasites are a huge factor. There was a young boy
who the mom brought in and said that the school
had told her that they want to put her child
in a special education class and for him to be
able to come back, he had to be on an amphetamine.
She said, I know my child's smart. I know there's
something wrong. I asked if the drugs would fix it,
and they said no. She said, that doesn't sound like
(29:34):
an answer. I want to find out what's wrong with
my son. We did all the work up, we did
a GI stool kit and he had parasites big time.
So we treated him for the parasites. He became a
straight A student. She said, I felt so good when
I had that parent teacher conference. I think I didn't
(29:55):
argue with the results.

I'm Lisa Prether, and you're listening to the Voice of
(31:45):
Health with doctor Robert Prether of Holistic Integration, where we
get to the root cause of your health issue. We're
talking today about building healthy kids from the inside out.
You know we're married, right, we are. Sometimes we don't
mention that on the show, and.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
We raised three kids.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Do we have a new patient come in and say,
you know, I was wondering what his wife thought because they,
you know.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Seem to have a pretty good chemistry there. I'm wondering
if something on the side was going on. So, yeah,
is there a little jealousy there or not.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
But our kids, you know, we were buying the organic food.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
And back when it really wasn't that.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Yeah, popular could hardly find it, and they would say,
I remember her little child or daughter, Oh you know,
she'd just say it was organic, I'm not eating it.
And now they all are.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Actually stricter than I know. And we had to force
some parents.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
If their kids are saying I'm not going to eat that,
they will. They will will. So let's talk about your infections.
You know, can reoccurring infections be a sign of deeper
imbalances and how do we deal with those at holistic Integration.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Sure, And one of the things is use station tubes.
So they're shorter in children and they don't have the
drainage that adults do, so they have more problems with
the years. And basically what occurs is that they have
gut problems. So again going back to the gut, small
intestine and the EU station tubes are made up of
the same type of muscle, So if the small intestine
becomes inflamed, the ear becomes inflamed. Also, also a lot
(33:30):
of the times that they have earaches is that they're
teething and they have a lot of inflammation into there
and it backs up. And then if it backs up,
and it's just like with any type of fluid, if
it accumulates over a period of time, it can start
to grow backtery or you can get viral infections that
will actually hit the years. So those types of things
(33:50):
can kind of get it going. And we have some
excellent things. Matter of fact, when people come in with
kids who are in pain and just even almost ysterical
because of their ear pain, they leave and they're out
of pain, and parents are like wiring parents lined up
at the good question because this works so well. And
(34:14):
what we have is, of course, we give them aconite,
bentle Donna and Camomeal, which are homeopathic ABC standard type
of thing that helps to relax the ears. We also
give them probiotics, you know, to ease up the gut.
So we go after the ears, We go after the
gut to get those relieved. We also do chiropractic adjustments,
(34:35):
which makes a big difference. We have some homeopathics for
the teething that help pretty very quickly, and then we
can also adjust the ear where we have Galbreath's maneuver
or some other ear adjustments too. Then we have diathermy,
which is a big magnet and it clears out the
(34:55):
congestion in the ear. So those things we can put
together other end before, you know, as they go through
the visit. By the time that we're done, the child's
doing great.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Yeah, and they can sit on mommy's lap on the diethermy.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
And of course one of the things that is done
is antibotics. And we're really in a post antibiotic world
now where most of the bacteria are resistant, and also
the antibotics kill the gut floor, which actually sets up
more issues. So if you can break the cycle of
going into the antibotics in the first place, you're going
(35:31):
to save that from becoming a constant problem, which is
where you're going to develop problems. And if a child
before the age of five has six or more antibiotics,
the chances of them having some learning disabilities are astronomically higher.
So the gut brain connection, if the gut is working well,
(35:53):
then you don't actually get the learning disabilities as you would.
You know, So keeping that healthier, saving yourself awful lot
of problems when you're dealing with children.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Yeah, what about strep throat?
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Strep throat, of course, one of the big things that
you always have to worry about is strip throat doesn't
go down to the kidneys because then it can become
scarlet fever, which can damage the kidneys over a long
period of time. It can also go to the heart.
But we do have nice things naturally for a strep
throat to keep it from becoming a problem, and then
you watch it and if it becomes too much, there
(36:27):
are antibotics that are times that are necessary. But one
of the nice things is we have homeopathics that keep
any negative effects of the antibiotics occurring, and then we
can actually make the antibotic work better with some of
the supplements we use. In other words, it's not ever
a US or them. You know, you use sometimes sometimes
you combine them, but you always try to do the
(36:50):
natural remedies first and make sure those work. And then
if you do have to go to a pharmaceutical, you
always have it as short as possible. But then you're
also supporting the body during that time so you don't
have issues. So again that's why we have holistic integration.
One we look at the whole body to know how
to work with it, and then also with that you
(37:13):
also have the integration when we know when we need
to refer out, when there needs to be pharmaceuticals. And
we look at an eighty twenty split, eighty percent of
all healthcare should be structure function based, twenty percent should
be disease care based. For kids, it's more like ninety
(37:34):
five percent should be structure function based and five percent
should be disease care based.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
So when should parents consider, you know, herbal medicine or
homeopathy for their children.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
They should consider it as the go to really that's
where things need to be in chiropractic. Yeah, chiropractic really
makes a big difference as far as on the health
of the children. And then also acupuncture. We don't like
to use needles on kids, but we have lasers and
then also we have a powder that we can put
(38:08):
on kids. One of the magic points if someone has
an infection, as we've had those before, Spleen twenty one.
Spleen twenty one is sort of the go to acupuncture
point that can really relieve any type of infection. A
matter of fact, people can have a fever, feeling really bad.
They can come in, we give them things to take,
(38:31):
but then we also make sure the adjustment's in place
and do anything along those lines, and then we treat
Spleen twenty one and people actually leave feeling better. It's
not like you're going in for an antibiotic and then
you got to wait three days before you feel it.
It's right. Then, yeah, that you see the changes that
actually occur. So acupuncture points are really good and very
(38:52):
effective on kids. And of course, like I said, we
do laser so the kids don't really mind it.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Right, they like the needle. When they get in high school,
they think it's cool.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Then they think it's cool and you have to take
a picture to send to all their fronts, right, because
that's standard for any of our high school you know,
some adults too. Oh this is so cool our.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Daughter's soccer team. I just yeah, love that acupuncture, Oh yeah,
coming in. So the treatments that benefit children that we
have at Holistic Integration. You've touched on the chiropractic, the diathermy.
You know, the diathermy is a nice gentle detaxifier for kids.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Yes, what it does is it opens up the circulation,
so it opens up the arteries of veins, and then
it also opens up the lymphatic tissue. The way that
it does that is the magnet will change the current
around those and cause them to dilate and increase blood
flow and increase lymps system. Diothermy, as you look it
(39:53):
up in physiology, it's supposed to be a heating device,
you know that. They say it's for heating. It's really not.
It opens up circulation. Anything that would improve with greater
circulation or greater lymphatic flow, then that's something that Then
that's the time to actually use it. And it's just
whenever you're talking about infections, it's just like a stream.
(40:16):
You have to think about it as a stream. Fast
moving creek has crystal clear water, something you can usually
drink out of. If it's stagnant and it's not moving,
it starts to kind of smell and develop all this mold, bacteria,
dead flies in it, all that good stuff.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah, so I think of that nice flowing river. I
want to touch too.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
Well.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
You touched on supplementation homeopathy, how important it is, especially
for children. Cranial sacral is something we offer.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Oh yeah, kids absolutely love that. We have kids who
are hyperactive that are coming in. They say, oh, they're
not going to sit still for anything. Megan starts in
them on the cranial sacral and then they just kind
of like, oh my gosh, these kind of drifting off
and just kind of, you know, still mellow me.
Speaker 1 (41:07):

(42:12):
at six thirty pm. You'll hear from doctor Robert Praither,
host of the Voice of Health Radio.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
We've had a lot of cases of low irons. We
had an interesting situation where we had a patient came
in and she had brought in her daughter. She just
wasn't performing, wasn't thinking very well, and that was unusual
for her because she was a very intelligent and very
active young lady. And we had done a blood test
on her and found that she was low and iron.
(42:38):
So we had given her some iron, got that up
to par with some other types of things and saw
everything turn around. The mom is a cross country coach,
and she thought that might be something that she should
have checked out on her on the cross country team.
She suggested that don and they tested out the whole team,
which was about sixty girls. Every one of them was
(43:00):
almost in a point where they could actually use a
blood transfusion.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Wow, the iron was so low.
Speaker 2 (43:05):
Their iron was so low. There wasn't anyone who was
normal on any girl on the cost country team that
was actually in the normal range. So they started them
on an iron program supplemented. It was the first time
that that team had actually made state, and everyone was
talking about, what have you done so different for this
(43:26):
team that has made such a huge difference in their performance,
And it was just basically that they were all low
in iron, which is understandable if you understand the activity
of iron. These girls are in a growth period which
is a high demand. They've just started menstruating, and then
they also are in a very active type of sport
(43:47):
and iron is actually eaten up in physical activity, and
if you're already low, then that actually puts it into
a real problem. So there was absolutely a huge difference
on the performance of the girls. Not only was there
a better performance in the cost Country, but also academically
that they saw a big difference. Interestingly enough, one of
the big things that the mom's told the cost Country coaches,
(44:10):
my daughter is so much sweeter. They aren't grumpy, they
don't go up to their room and hide, and they
actually talked at this upper table. So not only were
they better academically performing athletically performing, but also on their
behavior was just much better and they were much happier.
I usually find that there is physiological aspects to behavioral problems,
(44:35):
so finding out what those are is a huge type
of factor. But this just really impressed everyone in the
whole program. This is something that is very common. They've
done studies on young gals in athletics. The clinical studies
have actually shown that at least eighty percent of them
are dramatically low on their iron.

children's health and reserve your seat by calling three one
(45:16):

the Voice of Health radio dot com. Stop really, you're
listening to the Voice of Health with doctor Robert Prather
of Holistic Integration, where our mission is restoring hope to
(45:40):
our patients. We're talking today about building healthy kids from
the inside out and Dutch Brayder. Are there specific red
flag ingredients parents should avoid?
Speaker 2 (45:53):
Yes, really, if you're looking at anything that you can't pronounce,
you probably should need it.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
And then you got all those dyes.
Speaker 2 (46:02):
Sure.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
Well, I mean one thing that's starting to remove, right.
Speaker 2 (46:06):
I had a patient who moved from Canada and she
loves Oreos cookies and she went to buy some here
and she just was kind of like, well, I wonder
if it's the same. And she looked at the ingredients
and it's like, oh, these aren't the same Oreos that
I buy up in Canada, and they aren't.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
Yeah, lot more ingredients.
Speaker 2 (46:29):
Yeah, there's all these chemicals in there and all these
different types of dyes and stuff that they don't allow
in any other country. So our food supply is really bad.
But one of the things is we went to what
was it called.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
Goosta goost the market.
Speaker 2 (46:45):
Goosta Market, and they had cookies there and those were amazing.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
Yeah, you had to have one.
Speaker 2 (46:52):
I had to have one and we split it. But
it's all natural mm as we ate it. It's something
that's made local. And when you get into if you're
looking at foods, what you want to do is not
go down all the aisles and buy all the processed foods.
So if it's made by craft, if it's made by
(47:12):
all these different companies, they're probably going to poison it. Yeah,
just figure that. So what you want to do is
you want to buy fresh things. You want to make
a lot of it.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
But I mean stay on the outside.
Speaker 2 (47:24):
Stay on the outside, and then buy bakery items that's
made local, you know, without any chemicals, high quality types
of things. You could tell the quality of the cooking,
do you know what I mean? And those types of
things are available, so you don't have to deprive yourself
and they actually tastes better if your kids are used
to that type of thing. And then they go over
(47:44):
to the neighbors and they eat something that's processed, they're
going to kind of want to spit it out. It's
what you get used to. And if you develop your
kids along those lines, they're actually going to like the
things that are good for them instead of all.
Speaker 1 (47:59):
The Yeah, but also a lot of that is addictive.
Speaker 2 (48:04):
It's very addictive once you start on it, then it
takes a while to be able to work out. They
design them to be addictive. Yeah, so freedom as all
those types of things.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
Well, let's talk I want to talk a little bit
about physical activity. You know, how much physical activities should
kids be getting daily.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
They should be getting two to three hours of physical
activity a day. They need to play, and one of
the things is being outside. So there's a neurodevelopment that
needs to occur and they need to see like the
broad horizons.
Speaker 1 (48:37):
Right. Yeah, they're at school and they're looking at paper
and yeah, they're not looking unless they're out at recess.
Right for n PE class, You're right.
Speaker 2 (48:48):
And it's not proper for neurodevelopment. You're not going to
get the proper development that they need. The kids need
to play, they need to be outside.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
Even in the winter. I would get out there with
my grandson's and we build.
Speaker 2 (49:02):
It was cold, but they did so much better. You
could just see.
Speaker 1 (49:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (49:09):
And if kids are having it affects their behavior, affects
their brain development, it affects their social skills you don't
want to have. In other words, kids need to be
you know, free it up. Yeah, live more natural.
Speaker 1 (49:23):
And when they get home from school, getting out outside. Sure, yeah,
getting on their bikes. You've been fishing with our grandsons.
I have it to our eight and six and they
love it.
Speaker 2 (49:34):
Oh, and it's very relaxing. I can just see them
just kind of.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
And yeah, I get some focused.
Speaker 2 (49:39):
Yeah, And just having that type of thing outdoors is
just fairly important. And of course sunshine doesn't It's not
just vitamin D. There's also neural development that occurs. There's
chemicals that we don't yet know that occur because of
the sunshine. It goes through the eyes, It goes through
the eye, actually goes into the pineal gland, which helps
(50:00):
to set up the entire inderconsistent. So we're made to
have sun exposure and if they're not having it, they
aren't going to get the development that they should.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
So what are the consequences of too much screen time
on a child's physical development.
Speaker 2 (50:14):
Well, it's interesting because all of the big software presidents
and all that type of thing, they don't actually let
their kids have screen time.
Speaker 1 (50:23):
The CEOs and these software coming up.
Speaker 2 (50:25):
Yeah, they're like, oh no, I don't let my kids
do that, but they hire people to find out how
to get kids addicted to it. They're actually trying to
neurologically read wire your kids. So your kid is addicted
to the screen, and what it is, it's a dopamine response.
So what they're trying to do is get that dopamine
(50:47):
going in children. They'll actually change the neurochemistry of the brain.
The brain will not develop properly and it will always
it develops an addictive personality and also anti.
Speaker 1 (50:59):
Social right, they get disconnected.
Speaker 2 (51:02):
There's a disconnect on that. They're not going to be
well rounded people. So really, when they're young, they should
have no screen time.
Speaker 1 (51:09):
And you know what about structurally, they're even seeing an evolution.
Oh we've never seen it in the spine.
Speaker 2 (51:17):
Yeah, we've never seen what we call a knife class
occipical perturbance. I had never seen it, matter of fact,
it was unknown until the Actually, but you have your
occipal perturbance, and then there's like this knife that has
grown from it.
Speaker 1 (51:30):
So that's the bait. I'm going to Layman's terms here,
face of the skull yekull. Something's developing new, right because
of the head forward.
