Dr. Joel Wallach

Hour 1

Hour 2

Dr. Joel Wallach shared alternative health approaches and the benefits of remedies and supplements that aid in the body's recovery from many diseases and ailments. Responding to the latest developments with the coronavirus pandemic, he observed that young children who get the virus seem to only have cold-like symptoms as opposed to seniors, who are far more likely to be severely impacted and possibly die from the disease. Wallach postulated that this is because older individuals have had a lifetime of eating gluten which, he said, causes an inability to absorb zinc and that, in turn, weakens the immune system.

In addition to answering callers' questions about their health concerns, Wallach recounted a remarkable story from his childhood which served as the impetus for his pursuit of alternative health solutions. He explained that he was very sick with Tourette's syndrome when he was nine years old and was nearly institutionalized. Living on a small farm at the time, the young Wallach wondered why he was afflicted with the condition while the animals on the property were fine. This led him to theorize that it was due to a dietary difference and, as such, he began eating the nutritional supplements that the family fed to their animals. "As God as my witness," he marveled, "in three days time I was cured."
