Episode 482: MAGIC MUSHROOMS, THE SUNSCREEN SCAM & COOKING THE MAHA WAY
*This episode was pre-recorded
Fresh from Japan, Del reflects on a country that feels like another world—yet one where the stories, questions, and lessons of the COVID era sounded remarkably familiar.
Then, Jefferey Jaxen breaks down new questions surrounding sunscreen, skin cancer, vitamin D, and whether decades of public health messaging around sun exposure may be due for a closer look. Plus, the FDA is now exploring psychedelics like psilocybin and ibogaine for PTSD and depression. Is medicine finally moving beyond the SSRI era?
And celebrity chef Pete Evans joins Del in The HighWire Kitchen to share the recipes, ingredients, and kitchen secrets fueling the MAHA movement—and why real food may be the ultimate health hack.

How totally primitive and naive? Sun WORSHIP uber alles… FACT: unless you go 1/3 naked AT NOON [11:30-1:30] for 20minutes, your efforts to bathe in vit D is a FAILURE…. only in that window and exposure can you get a decent amount of D…. 15,000IU…..
AND
the fickle God not only leaves you empty on other time slots and less exposure, but it’s a frequent disappointment,, not showing up to bless you at all…. rain and clouds..
Get over the worship Del… all you’ll get for it is INADEQUATE D-LEVELS ultimately and a SUNSTROKE as well if you choose to do work in those hours….
GET THE BOTTLE of D3 and take your 10,000 to 15,000IUs per day and keep your D-level OPTIMAL…..
And as for the occasional fun in the sun that ends you up with a PINKness your TV edu warns will turn to burn, DONT BELIEVE IT… Get out your bottle of vit C crystals OF THE SALT KIND [sodium ascorbate] add a little pure water to make a SERUM and APPLY LIBERALLY…. voila…. suntan….
As for the other benefits of daylight, get the item with the bulbs wanted and use at your own timetable, after eating lots of greens so you’ll have the chmistry to benefit from your favored exposure…..[Sayr Ji says so]….
Primitive ain’t great… ttyl
