Registered pharmacist and nutritionist Ben Fuchs shared alternative health concepts, and offered tips on supplements and healthy changes to one's diet and lifestyle. When asked about coconut oil, he said it's more stable than other vegetable oils (which should never be heated) and high in a healthful substance called MCT. Eggs, he added, are the most important and valuable food on the planet, and have all the nutrients cells need. In contrast to the notion that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, Fuchs said that it doesn't hurt to skip it. If you're having breakfast, he recommended "power foods" you don't need to eat a lot of like herring, sardines, eggs, algae, seaweed, all of which are all nutritionally dense.

Calcification (calcium build-up) is one of the ways the body can break down, and it can happen to different organs or systems. Chelation is one way to treat this, he said, and there are various nutritional supplements that have chelating effects such as selenium, sulfur, algae, and Vitamin K. It's also essential to relax the body, and practice deep breathing for this condition, he noted. He traced problem skin conditions like dermatitis to digestive issues and suggested avoiding problem foods and taking such things as apple cider vinegar, gelatin, algae, seaweed, and zinc.
