Dr. Brown has tackled serious issues with natural and proven methods that his patients love him for. But he is not finished.

#94 Who can You Trust? The Mixed messages around Diet and Food Jan 07, 2023

Show notes

All of us have experienced placing trust in certain authorities. But when those same authorities abuse that trust, what can be done about it?

The health industry has several institutions, academies, and associations that all command a presence throughout the many disciplines of healthcare. Altruism in their pursuits SHOULD be a given.

However, there is always a vulnerability for compromise whenever money and power become traded like commodities.

Ken and Eric explore the documented exchange of email, favors, and payment that has recently been uncovered within the dietetics specialty. And this is not to believed to be the only specialty with this level of compromise. Actually quite the opposite.

The GCP, Ken, & Eric want you to be vigilant, and more than likely, almost every organization with influence has some degree of deceit. You just have to know how to see through it.

#89 Layne Garrett, Sexual Trauma Therapist Nov 13, 2022

Show notes

Were you aware that every 68 seconds, an American suffers from sexual assault?

It’s a sobering statistic that knows no boundaries from race or even sex. Females are most often the victim, however males can be subjected to the horrific act as well.

Layne Garrett, LPC joins Ken & Eric on The Gut Check Project to discuss the barriers to helping those that may need an escape form the tortuous burden of having been a victim of a crime that they never deserved.

Layne’s service is a noble cause, and one that we all probably may underestimate the scale of the actual number of people that need help. A former teacher, Layne has rededicated her career to hellion those that suffer in silence.

But nobody needs to suffer alone, and there is hope to overcome the trauma. Making yourself aware of the clues might even provide some insight and you may notice a loved one of your own might need to talk with someone like Layne.

There are all kinds of pathways to healthy living, and being consumed by the stress stemming from trauma is worth addressing.

How prevalent might these scenarios be? Here are some numbers to consider:

§ 70% of sexual assaults are committed by a perpetrator known or related to the victim (1)

§ 2 in 5 women in Texas have been sexually assaulted (2)

§ 1 in 5 men in Texas have been sexual assaulted (2)

§ 6.3 million Texans have experienced some form of sexual assault in their lifetime (2)

· 1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime (14.8% completed, 2.8% attempted).

· About 3% of American men—or 1 in 33—have experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime.

· A majority of child victims are 12-17. Of victims under the age of 18: 34% of victims of sexual assault and rape are under age 12, and 66% of victims of sexual assault and rape are age 12-17.

· 9 out of every 10 victims of rape are women.

Join Layne with Ken & Eric as they discuss what sexual trauma therapy looks like, what goals can be attained, techniques like EMDR, and why there truly is how for a better life for all victims of traumatic events.

#86 Navy SEAL Ryan “Birdman” Parrott Oct 23, 2022

Show notes

Ryan “Birdman” Parrott was a trained sniper in his SEAL team. After transitioning out of the SEAL teams, there was an assumption that they were safe, back home on American soil. On January 2nd, 2019, Birdman received a call from a teammate, stating that his SEAL team partner David R. Metcalf had taken his own life. As he navigated his own grief, Birdman was inspired to do more than simply mourn. The issues facing war tattered and battle worn veterans is far beyond just a label of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).

Birdman recognized that despite the well intentioned non-profits to help these vets, we continue to lose thousands of military members and first responders every year.

Army Veteran Daniel Somers wrote this in his suicide note in 2013: “I am left with basically nothing. Too trapped in a war to be at peace, too damaged to be at war.”

As with Birdman’s observations, Daniel’s words suggest that there is a whole body element to post traumatic stress that is being missed. Birdman reached out to a physician to discuss human performance in people with trauma. His hypothesis was to test these individuals on a physiological level and obtain a baseline.

Birdman has assembled a world class team of Physicians, Ph.D.’s, Phycologists, Physiatrists, Sports Physiologists, and former Special Operators to make up the Human Performance Project. The mission is to create a manual to guide the tactical population, enabling them to thrive upon entry, during and post service. Ken & Eric are honored to host Birdman on the GCP.
