I first met today's podcast guest at a health conference four years ago. I happened to be sitting across the dinner table from him, and watched as he pulled out the mysterious leather satchel that I'd seen him carrying all weekend long. He opened the satchel to reveal tiny bottles of black oil, dropper bottles full of dark, green algae-like goo, mineral salts, and all kinds of other strange substances which he proceeded to use to "dress-up" his dinner.

Later, I learned his name - Ian Clark - and invited him on my podcast to talk about that green algae goo, which turned out to be marine phytoplankton. I also learned that back in 2004, at the age of 46, when he was hit with a series of life threatening health issues, obesity, and a prediction from physicians that he only had about two years left to live, Ian refused to accept life’s traditional circumstances and decided to pursue more natural methods of restoring perfect health.

Ian began traveling all over the world to discover strange, new health products while developing relationships with top labs and researchers in the fields of natural healing. Now operating out of a farm in Canada with his five sons and the support of an entire team of innovators at Activation Products Canada and Activation Germany, his company has become a significant manufacturer of unique products like magnesium spray, black seed oil, marine phytoplankton and much more.

In today's podcast with Ian, you'll discover:

-The genetic illness that nearly killed Ian back in 2004 and led to his journey of interest in natural healing...

-How you can personally "equip" your body to deal with mold and fungus (and the shocking link between mold, fungus and cancer)...

-How Ian has created his own micro-universe to heal his body...

-One specific pose you can hold for 30 minutes a day for two weeks to "reboot" your autonomic nervous system...

-The small exercise machine that Ian swears by and keeps in both his home and his office...

-A new form of fasting called "dry fasting"...

-What Ian uses as a "smart drug" to stay hyper-awake and alert...

-The reason Ian sprays his entire abdomen with magnesium prior to bed at night...

-Why Ian travels everywhere with a black leather bag, and what he keeps in it... -And much more!
