<![CDATA[Foundational Health]]>There is no one-size-fits-all approach to health. Vitality emerges when the pillars of life align with your physiologic constitution.

Why does one diet work for your friend, but not for you?

Your personal physiology determines the conditions in which you thrive. Traditionally, this has been called temperament.

Your temperament informs the Four Pillars of lifestyle:

1. Activity
2. Consumption
3. Habitat
4. Meaning

When you align the Pillars of life with your Temperament, Vitality emerges.

This is the basis of the Foundational Health approach, and what drives me to have conversations with people that can shed light on the Foundation and the Pillars.

Jamie Andrews on Contagion, PCR Fraud & Terrain Theory]]>What if the foundational claim of modern infectious disease medicine — that viruses spread between people and cause illness — has never been conclusively demonstrated? That is not a fringe question. It is the question this episode explores in full.

Remnant | MD sits down with Jamie Andrews, an independent researcher who has spent years methodically examining the evidentiary basis of virology — from the controlled human infection studies of the early 20th century, to John Enders' 1954 isolation claim, to the PCR testing infrastructure deployed in 2020. His process: ask the childlike questions that industry insiders are too institutionally embedded to ask. Then follow the evidence.

More specifically, Remnant | MD pushes back on the assertion that viruses do not exist. Jamie's answer was quite surprising.

Topics Covered

  • The epistemological problem with modern medicine: a tower of unexamined assumptions
  • Why virology may be the most pseudoscientific field in medicine
  • The controlled human infection studies — and why a century of attempts to transmit disease failed
  • John Enders 1954: the moment virology changed, and what the control experiment actually showed
  • The PCR test: what it measures, where it failed, and what 'positive' actually means
  • Terrain theory, Avicenna, and the Unani medicine framework for infectious disease
  • John Snow, cholera, and what the Broad Street pump study actually proved
  • Psychological transmission of disease: if fear makes you sick, that is contagion
  • The 'simplex' model of cellular biology — on/off, charge/discharge, alive/dead
  • What was lost when the family doctor was replaced by a pharmaceutical pathway
  • The physician as partner — and why patients who feel unseen don't comply

I’ve known him for quite a number of years, and am grateful that he wanted to be the first guest on the new podcast.

Primarily, we focused on Dr. Ammous’ journey through diet, quantum biology, and spirituality.

We also discussed:

  • Dietary considerations aligning with physiology
  • Flaws in Medical Education
  • Limitations of Conventional Treatments
  • Understanding Disease Beyond Symptoms
  • Impact of Expectations on Healthcare
  • Role of the Internet on Health Education
  • Learning from Patients
  • Value of Individual Care
  • Leveraging AI for Research
