I have an exceptional story to share with you today.

My guest is not only a doctor and speaker and wellness Expert with over 20 years of experience, he also is going to share a personal story of healing and a powerful testament to what happens when faith and natural medicine come together.

In November 2024, Dr. Pete was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, grade 4 diffuse astrocytoma.

Doctors gave him less than a 1% chance to live, but instead of accepting that death sentence, he turned inward, leaning fully into the same holistic faith rooted principles he had spent over two decades teaching others.

What I love most is he combined scripture with science, prayer with precision, medicine in spiritual alignment with nervous system healing.

Four months later, his neurosurgeon and oncologist said something no one expected.

Your brain is clear.

There is no evidence of disease.

What I love about this is in our lifetimes, the chances of us getting cancer, for men, it really is 1 in 2.

It's a 40% or higher chance, our lifetime chance.

In women, it's 1 in 3.

And these numbers are actually only going up for so many reasons.

But we need to be proactive about our health.

We need to know what we can do now to try to minimize our chances of cancer, to minimize our chance of chronic disease and illness.

And we also need to be prepared with other ways to look at treating a chronic illness and cancer to these things.

There are so many things we can do on our own, especially when we're our own health advocates.

So I can't wait to share some of his knowledge and wisdom in his own story with us.

Welcome to Faith Fueled Living, the podcast that equips you to live well spiritually, emotionally, physically and purposefully.

Each week we'll dive into conversations and biblical truths to help you strengthen your faith pursuit, pursue meaningful work, care for your whole self, and live aligned with what matters most.

I'm so excited for the conversation today with Dr. Pete Sulak.

You know, I've already introduced him and explained why I'm so happy and excited to share the hope he has to to bring to us today his story and also all of his knowledge of working in the wellness industry for over 20 years.

So, Dr. Pete, welcome to the show.

Thank you so much.

It's an honor to be here.

Can you just start off a little bit with telling us about your own journey and what you've walked through in your wellness practice, in life and then also in the last year?

Yeah, absolutely.

You know, I've been had the privilege of being a chiropractor for the last 20 plus years.

I've had the opportunity to serve over a million patient visits from all over the world.

And.

And it's really, truly just the grace of God in spite of me, not because of me.

And about a year ago, so actually exactly a year ago, on November 25, the Monday of Thanksgiving, I knew something was a little bit off.

So that morning I went and shared with my staff that, hey, I'm going to take a step back.

I think I might have had a mini stroke, but nevertheless, I'm going to have you take a step forward.

They didn't have a clue because I was so good at covering it up.

My wife would finish my sentences, and my brother convinced me because it was Thanksgiving week to go to the emergency room.

And after eight hours in the emergency room, they came out and said, you have a glioblastoma.

You have a 1% chance to be alive in eight months and a huge shock.

But God's so gracious.

He's so much in the details of this life.

And.

But, yeah, that was a, you know, rocked my world.

But in the midst of it, we saw God's hands over and over again.

But, you know, in a nutshell, I was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.

That was a year ago now.

I was given, like I said, 1% chance to be alive still in eight months.

But God, God is so faithful.

He is truly my healer.

And now I am.

The latest MRI was clear.

The latest CT scan was clear.

My blood work was perfect.

And the Lord has really, truly touched my life in mercies.

And the kindness of God have kissed me so powerful.

And it does.

It's.

You know, I have goosebumps.

And I'm sure many people, when you share that story, do, but it's just, it just reminds me, and I love this intersection of faith or medicine and healing and how we can, you know, change our thoughts.

All the things we're going to talk about today, and I guess the first thing I would just ask you before we dig further into what are all the things you did and how you help other people is I feel like we live in a world where mainstream medicine tells us, okay, this is the path, this is the way forward.

If you get a chronic disease or cancer, this is what we recommend.

And from what I understand, right, having family and friends walk through diagnosis, it's kind of like we feel the fear, we feel the diagnosis.

It's a shock, but then it's almost like fear if you don't do X right away.

Right?

And so I guess what I'm wondering is how do we, instead of feeling afraid of a diagnosis, understand that we actually have power to look at all the options and also, you know, our faith and then come up with a plan?

Yeah, you know, I think that's so true because the things that I fear, I don't have authority over.

And fear is so much ingrained in our healthcare culture.

Cancer considered by most to be a death sentence.

The name above every name is considered by most to be cancer.

But we know the name above every name, and it's not cancer.

Cancer must bow to the name of Jesus who we serve.

And.

But it's interesting because most doctors will tell you what to do and condemn you if you don't do it.

But I believe doctors are supposed to be teachers.

They're supposed to empower you.

Life is hard enough stewarding over my life and my family's life than for a doctor to say, well, you need to do this or else.

I really believe that kind of.

My approach for the last 25 years has been, where do you and your family have peace with?

You know, what direction do you feel God's calling you to go?

And then the doctor's perspective, in my opinion, is to go to that position where you have peace with and fight for you from that position.

And that's how I've always approached care.

I've never been vaccinated or don't vaccinate, chemo or radiation, or don't do those things conventional or standard of care or holistic.

No, it's.

Where do you have peace?

Let me meet you there.

I don't want to expect you to come to where I'm at and where I have faith, where I have conviction.

I want to find where do you have conviction?

And let me go fight for you from there.

And then I can help you develop conviction and develop mindsets and understand truly where health comes from so that we can empower you to steward well, the temple of God and live a successful life and finish well.

And that's really how my approach has always been.

Yeah, so, so powerful.

So, you know, let's dive into a little bit about, you know, you have a whole protocol about how we can improve our health and hopefully heal ourselves, you know, with different chronic conditions or diagnoses.

So do you want to walk us through a couple of those big areas that a lot of us are having, maybe weaknesses or dysfunction?

Right.

So the cellular health and circadian rhythm, our diets, our terrain.

So do you want to walk us through maybe a couple of those?

Yeah, absolutely.

You know, when I was diagnosed the night I was diagnosed, we shared with my family, obviously.

And then there's two people I called Dr. Josh Axe, who's a health expert in the country, and his wife and my wife are first cousins.

So that was very convenient.

And then Jordan Rubin is one of my best friends and another health expert who created, basically started Garden of Life and Ancient Nutrition.

And I was able to call them and just because of my relationship, just begin to develop a strategy in a game plan.

And that strategy for us was five main pillars of diet, supplementation, detoxification, oxygenation, and faith.

Faith being that capstone that holds it all together, that keeping the right perspective in the midst of the storms of this life.

Because of that, actually, I was encouraged to become my own patient.

What's interesting is that my wife had come to me five years previous, and my wife had the cleanest diet of anyone I've ever knew.

She was gluten free, dairy free, eating organic, taking supplements, working out mid-40s, but she was exhausted.

She had hormonal imbalances and digestive issues.

And so at the time, I reached out to a number of functional medicine practitioners and found that most of them did not do functional blood work.

And the ones that did gave everyone the same supplements, great supplements, but there's no personalization, no meal plan.

And for my wife, she just said, hey, no offense, but I'm doing all those things.

But I still feel this way.

I need to kind of look underneath the hood, and I don't want to guess anymore.

So I began to do just a deep dive into functional labs.

And one was a food sensitivity test, because even though she was eating clean, I wanted to make sure that we weren't adding insult to injury by her incorporating healthy foods that weren't healthy for her.

Because what most people don't realize is that cancer, for instance, feeds on sugar, inflammation, and a lack of oxygen.

So I can have a no sugar diet, but still be eating healthy foods that are not healthy for me, that are creating inflammation, that are a breeding ground of chronic illness.

And so I did a food sensitivity test.

I also did a DNA test to determine any DNA mutations, because if there's any variations in the DNA, what it's going to inhibit is the body's ability to take raw material or nutrients and convert them into a usable form.

I also did a micronutrient analysis, because what most people also don't realize is that if the body is nutrient deficient at a cellular level, it's not going to detoxify itself.

It's actually going to spin its wheels.

So when it comes to parasites, heavy metals, lymes, mold, and so forth, the body is just not going to effectively get rid of those.

I did a gut test and I did a homocysteine test.

I took that information, called my manufacturer, my supplement company, said, hey, can you do me a huge favor?

Can you take my wife's blood work, put it down your assembly line, and fill it with what she's efficient in?

And they laughed at me.

They said, Dr. B, that doesn't work.

There's no money in compounded supplements.

No one in America will accommodate.

And thankfully, I found someone in Canada that was willing to work with me and not only take my wife's blood work and fill it with what she was deficient in, but couple it with her DNA mutations and her food sensitivities, and then also highlight 50 antioxidants to determine which ones would be most protective for her physiology.

And we tailor made a supplement, created a meal plan based on her blood work, and set up with a nutritionist.

And it was life changing for her.

So I started allowing my patients that were already coming to me from around the world with cancer and Ms. And Parkinson's to use this program.

And I started getting calls from oncologists saying, hey, we sent a patient to you four months ago that seven years ago had breast cancer.

And they did the conventional treatment, now it's come back with a vengeance.

And so they refused standard of care, and we've sent her to you and.

But at the four month mark, we convinced her to rerun her blood work and found that all the tumors had shrunk in half and were hollow.

She's cancer free.

I started hearing that over and over again.

So Obviously, hindsight is 20 20.

So when I was diagnosed, I was encouraged to become my own patient.

And that's what I did.

I ran blood work.

I wanted to make sure.

I felt like I couldn't afford the gas.

I couldn't afford to wait.

They'd give me a death sentence.

And we really begin to build the body back up with personal personalized diet, personalized supplementation that opened up detox pathways which allowed my body to oxygenate more, more effectively.

And then I incorporate things like hyperbaric oxygen therapy, high dose vitamin C, detox mechanisms like coffee enemas and castor oil packs and binders, and then just living from the vantage point of heaven, knowing that my God is so big, so strong and so mighty, there's nothing my God cannot do so good.

Okay, so for some people listening to this, you know, because I love digging into this kind of information.

And obviously, this is what you, you know, eat, sleep, and think about.

So what would be some simple things that people can start doing in their own lives even before.

Absolutely.

I think it's so powerful to go and get this personalized understanding of our bodies.

I think that's so powerful.

But if we're.

If listeners are not ready to do that yet.

Right.

Or sometimes we say, not if your pain isn't enough.

Sometimes it doesn't make us act in as much of a way.

So what can we do?

Right.

I know there's a lot of things we can do that don't even cost a lot of money.

That it's a good starting point of us starting to understand our bodies better, to oxygenate our bodies better, to, you know, eat better.

So what.

What are some things we can start doing even now?

I think the.

The best thing is, is one, stay hydrated.

Make sure you get in enough good purified water.

Typically, the rule of thumb is half your body's weight in ounces of fluid a day.

So a person that weighs 100 pounds, 50 ounces of.

Of good pure water each and every day to hydrate yourself and stay active, get moving.

You know, a rule of thumb is 10,000 steps, but I'm a big advocate of a mini trampoline.

Just getting on the mini trampoline for 10 minutes a day improves lymphatic drainage.

In fact, 10 minutes is equivalent to, according to NASA, like 10,000 steps a day.

But so much more effective in boosting circulation.

I think just eating.

If you go to the grocery store, eat on the out, you know, basically shop on the outer edge of the grocery store.

We're not incorporating processed foods and sugary foods and sodas and so forth, because chronic illness and cancer feeds on sugar and inflammation and a lack of oxygen.

And so there's just simple things that everyone can do.

Get out barefoot and get out in the sun for 15 minutes on either side.

It's just so, so powerful.

Vitamin D levels and so forth and what that will do for your body.

Yeah, absolutely.

So what about, you know, one of the things you talk about?

I know is in these.

One of these five areas is fixing our terrain or, you know, or improving it.

And I know obviously doing some of that testing helps you understand what's going on, but what are the.

Some of the things.

So it's obviously not eating the things that feed.

Right.

The bad guys in our body, but are there any other things that we should be doing?

To just start understanding that, in other words, our body's designed to heal and if we give it the right environment and we give it the right inputs, it will start healing.

Right, which is all the areas you're talking about fixing.

So would you just say there's other.

First of all, I think it's a perspective change that we have to remember, no matter what's going on with us, there is a potential that we can heal what we're dealing with.

And So I guess 1.

What would you say to that?

Just because I think that's an area that I think a lot of us get caught up on.

We think, for instance, unrelated example is Alzheimer's dementia.

You know, the newer studies and data shows what we probably would think it would, which is if you change your inputs, change your lifestyle, change the environment, the toxins, you can actually reverse or, you know, not get dementia.

So as that example, I think a lot of people still think, oh, I have dementia.

And the doctor at one point told me, now I have dementia.

But that's actually not the reality.

So I guess how do we start changing our perspective that maybe what we've heard in medicine may not be actually accurate or current?

Yeah, absolutely.

And so I think no matter what approach someone takes in regards to their health and their journey, whether it's the standard of care, whether it's a holistic approach, everyone benefits by establishing the train of the body, opening up the detoxification pathways, adding the sufficiency that the body needs, restoring fluidity of what's called the cell membrane so that the body can receive nutrients and detoxify the bad ones.

So regardless, my focus has never been to treat cancer, to treat chronic illness.

My focus has always been how do we establish the train of the body in such a way, the internal mechanisms of the body in such a way that cancer and chronic illness is just no longer hospitable in the body.

And so that is a huge differentiator.

And for anyone on their journey, I'd rather get moving in the right direction, then assuming you're healthy, move in the wrong direction.

That's plain Russian roulette.

And so many people assume that if you feel good, you're healthy.

If it's not broke, don't fix it.

But the truth of the matter is germs don't automatically make you sick.

What makes you sick?

A weak terrain, a weak host that can't fight off those germs and bacteria and pathogens and so forth, and cancer.

So what do we, what can we do to just really Establish the body in, you know, in regards to Alzheimer's and dementia, there's a gentleman named Dr. David Perlmutter who's a board certified neurologist, worked with Alzheimer's dementia patients for years and years and years.

And his research has actually proven that Alzheimer's is one of the most reversible diseases on the planet.

Even though it's incredible the statistics of how many people are getting Alzheimer's and dementia.

But he looks at it like if you have a leaky gut, which is a permeable, what's called a more permeable gut.

So really the, the gut microflora is becoming too open so that pathogens get through that into the bloodstream which will actually circulate, create an autoimmune response and then if they pass the blood brain barrier, they'll create a brain toxicity which he contributes to Alzheimer's and dementia and so forth.

So the biggest thing is how do I heal the gut, how do I balance hormones, how do I establish the train of the body?

And I think all of those play in together and I think a little, a few things, eliminating sugar as much as you can.

People say, well, what about fruit, Dr. Pete?

Well, I think fruits are powerful antioxidants which are very, very beneficial.

But I think added sugar, anything that has added sugar in it, I would be very careful of anything that's processed seed oils and so forth, just because that boosts inflammation, which becomes a, you become a breeding ground for chronic illness.

And so there's just so many simple practical things that you can do that a person can do just to get moving in the right direction, but hydrate yourself, get moving, get out in the sun.

I think just that's a great way to start.

Yeah, absolutely.

The next thing I'd like to talk about is how our thoughts impact our physical health.

No, absolutely.

I think it's a tremendous indication of how our body is going to respond.

You know, as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.

The word of God says, and I think hold every thought captive, the obedience of Christ.

The enemy is going to try to lie to us over and over again and say, you're not going to make it.

Just.

The enemy tries to use disease and sickness to identify us and we take ownership of those things.

But the reality is that God's my healer, that he sends his word and it heals, and that he's created me fearfully and wonderfully, bought me with a price.

My life is of great worth, value and significance in the eyes of God and it's seeing myself the way God sees me and then knowing, you know, for me, you know, you can replace the lies of the enemy with the truth of the word of God.

And then my encouragement, even with a gentleman I was working with recently was, hey, let's write down all the things that the enemy is telling you that you know are a lie.

And then let's replace those with the word of God and the promises of the Word of God.

And then my encouragement is speak those out loud over your circumstances, prophesy to your life, and then there's going to come a time when those are going to become quickened in your spirit, and then, you know, it will manifest when you become fully convinced of the realities of heaven in your life.

There's a rest for the people of God when, when we live by faith.

Faith isn't something I must drop.

It's an impartation through intimacy, through spending time in the Word of God, through meditating on it day in and day out.

And when I come to that place of freedom, of liberty, of rest, I know I've entered into the realm of faith and supernatural things begin to take place in my life.

Oh, yes, absolutely.

I just had a great conversation with a woman and we talk all about divine healing, you know, and it's.

It's so powerful.

Yeah.

And I think I would just add another note on the.

What our thoughts are is, you know, there's such a.

They've looked at the data or scientifically looked at how our thoughts actually turn on and off.

Right.

Our genes, epigenetics.

So once again, I mean, that.

That's not even to the point of divine right, that what the word of God says, how he can heal us.

But even at that level, it's that our thoughts really do impact.

Right.

Our spiritual, our mental and our physical health.

And so I think it's just, it's so powerful and I don't think so many of us realize what we're feeding ourselves, what we're looking at, but also what we're, what we're speaking.

Like you said, are we speaking that the disease or our health is poor and that it's taken hold versus, like you said, it's.

It's speaking over it because we know in God that is what has, should have hold and that has power.

Absolutely.

And Dr. Josh Axe loves to talk about mindset.

Medicine, which is so true, is just feeding your mind with the word of God, with the truth, with who we are in Christ, that we are.

Our bodies are fearfully and wonderfully made and just making sure that I can replace any lie of the enemy with the truth of the word of God.

Yeah.

And what about the role of stress?

I know that that's so tied into, first of all, our culture and how many people are living.

But what would you just share with us about what we need to look out for as far as stress and then how it can impact our physical health?

Yeah, absolutely.

I think stress is really the ultimate culprit behind all disease.

It's the greatest epidemic to face this generation, in my opinion.

You know, the body was created to go from a place of homeostasis, balance, equilibrium in the body, adapt physiologically to the demands and stressors placed on, and then recover.

And as long as my body's able to adapt to the demands and stresses of life and recovery, my body stays very, very resilient.

And stress is inevitable.

It's going to affect us every day of our life.

Physical stress, like car accidents, falls, whiplash injuries, or sitting at a desk all day, chemical stressors, like the food we eat, the air that we breathe, the things that we're exposed to, whether we know it or not, and then the emotional stress, life, relationships, abuse and trauma, and those things are inevitable.

And so as long as my body's able to adapt to those and then fully recover, we're good.

The problem becomes when my body gets overwhelmed by the demands and stressors of life, and eventually it will reach what's called allostatic load.

It's simply a term that means your body got stuck in a stress response.

That's the tipping point.

If the body gets stuck and fails to get back to homeostasis, that's where essential activities in the body increase, non essential activities decrease.

It's like Covid.

When Covid first hit, all essential businesses stayed open.

Non essential businesses closed.

The same thing happens in the body under stress.

Essential activities like heart rate, blood pressure, stroke, volume, blood sugar increase.

They're necessary for survival.

Non essential activities like digestion, immune function, growth hormone, and so forth, reproduction, they decrease.

We don't need those to survive.

That's great in the short term, but when it becomes long term, we got a serious problem.

And so the goal is, how do we get the body out of a stress response?

We can do that three ways.

Physically, we can do that through motion, through releasing pressure on the spinal cord, through gross mobility.

We help the body get out of a stress response neurologically.

In fact.

Dr. Roger Sperry is a Nobel prize winner.

His research proved that spinal mobility is actually the greatest nutrient to the brain.

Why because it helps the body get back to homeostasis neurologically, chemically.

We get the body back to homeostasis through what are called adaptogenic herbs.

Adaptogens have been around for thousands of years, but they're the only the one chemical in supplement on the planet that will actually bring you up to homeostasis or down.

They act like a thermostat in the body to restore homeostasis along the.

What's called the HPA axes.

And that's the pathway that creates the stress hormone cortisol.

In fact, psychology today says cortisol's public enemy number one.

If you want to get fat, old, tired or sick, let cortisol go crazy.

But I need cortisol.

You need to wake up in the morning as a protective mechanism needed for energy stores.

But what we don't want is it to get stuck.

And so adaptogens help the body get back to homeostasis chemically and then emotionally, we break and get the body back to homeostasis through hope.

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a desire fulfills the tree of life.

So seeing the goodness of God in my future helps me restore homeostasis emotionally and allows me to become resilient once again.

So, three ways to.

I want the body to adapt, but we need it to recover.

And I can restore homeostasis neurologically with movement.

I can restore it chemically through adaptogens, and I can restore it emotionally through hope.

So good.

Well, and I would guess also it's learning how to turn off your sympathetic nervous system, right?

Which is what you're talking about as to getting stuck in the fight or flight.

And so there's lots of easy ways people can do little releases or exercises to help with that, if that's something.

I mean, it's probably a good thing to do in general, right, to know how to do these things.

Never want to get the body stuck in a stress response.

So we need.

Stress is inevitable.

I need to adapt to it, but I need to recover more than anything.

And so, yes, anything I can do to restore motion in the spine, anything, you know, any adaptogenic herb is great for calming the stress response.

And cortisol and just your attitude and hope helps the body get back to homeostasis emotionally.

Isn't that true?

Hope?

It's always about hope, isn't it?

I mean, you know, if.

If we don't have hope, I mean, it's just.

I mean, we literally start to probably wither, right?

I mean, in other words, we need to see something to be hopeful.

For, you know, whether it's our future or you know, what we're working on, our family or you know, hope in God.

So yeah, it's so powerful.

So what else would you just want to share with us?

Just to, you know, continue that message, hope of what you've walked through and how you're helping so many people.

You know, what would you maybe say is something people can hold on to?

I mean, their faith, of course, but I don't know, just to continue to encourage them in their health journeys.

I think the biggest thing is knowing that there's nothing too hard for God.

We serve the living God, an all powerful miracle working God.

And he created your body to work.

If you cut your finger, you don't have to tell it to heal, it just heals because there's an innate in born ability for the body to heal.

It's innate self regulating, healing organism.

So nature is to heal, it's not to break down.

I think we've been led to believe that just you're going to get sicker and sicker and sicker and then you're going to die.

But that's not the case.

The body is brilliant.

It was created to heal.

And so just be encouraged with that.

And no matter where you find yourself on the journey, we can get you moved in the right direction and we can gain momentum and truly see amazing things take place.

Right now I'm serving cancer patients from all over the world and my biggest message is cancer does not have to be a death sentence.

I know you're told it is.

I was told it is.

But it doesn't have to be a death sentence.

And we can begin to build the body back up and make sure that chronic illness and cancer is no longer hospitable in the body.

We can open up detoxification pathways, add the sufficiency that the body needs, all with, with foods and, and modalities that God gave us on the earth to really begin to build the body back up.

Yeah.

So powerful.

And you know, also in one of you, in your protocol, you also share so many healing scriptures that you both relied on or you know, prayed over that you also just share with other people.

Right.

That want to download that protocol.

Is there just anything you'd share about that?

Just, you know, you've, you've talked already about kind of praying over or you know, getting in the word about what we're promised.

And so I think that's obviously such a big element or aspect.

Anything else you'd share about that?

Yeah.

And so I have an 87 page protocol that I laid out when my wife allowed me to invite people into our journey on social media.

So on Thanksgiving, three days after I was diagnosed, I approached my wife and I said, hey, would it be okay if we invite people into this journey with us?

And obviously she was apprehensive knowing what the doctors had just told us, but she was willing because I just said, you know, if we're going to go out, we might as well go out swinging and we might as well go out inspiring as many people as we can.

And she allowed me to.

And so we just kind of, we just share our journey on social media and we provide a free download, what's called a resilience protocol.

I think it is right now like an 87 page document that has the, basically the philosophy by how we've approached care, has books that are inspiration to me, it has all the modalities and supplements that I use.

It has healing scriptures, it has the secrets to walking in faith.

And we just try to provide every resource that we can to just encourage people on this journey.

And hundreds of thousands of people have downloaded this protocol so far and we're just hoping that it will just be a blessing and refresh others.

I mean it's, it's pretty amazing how much information and care you put into creating it.

You know, whether you are already walking through a diagnosis like that or not, it has a lot of amazing information in it.

So I definitely encourage people to read it because there's so many times where people give you a protocol, but it's not all of it, right?

You really tried to put everything into it and whether someone's going to do every single thing you did.

The point is, is you share each of the areas and all the things and it is just a wonderful resource that you're providing.

Now I do want to ask you, I know through one of your practices or businesses you actually, you know, work with people to do consultations.

I don't know for sure, I couldn't tell.

Do you also offer the all the testing or just another company do that?

So you know, part of the end of the protocol we provide the opportunity for people to meet with me.

And when people download the protocol by simply typing protocol in any one of the videos on our social media, in the comments and then follow your messages, basically go to your messages and you can download that protocol.

But we also give you the opportunity to set up a one on one consult with one of our team and that consult will allow us to just kind of walk with you on this journey.

The consult allows someone to be introduced to our program called Be Resilient, which is the functional labs, which is setting you up with a nutritionist, setting you up with a certified trauma coach to.

Because 90% of cancers now are proven to have an emotional trigger.

And so we want to make sure that we can make sure there's no traumatic memories that got wrongfully stuck in the amygdala of your brain, the emotional center, so they can go back in the cortex.

Your brain can heal.

We have live Q&As.

And so we do allow people the opportunity to walk personally with us to do all the labs, the tailor made supplements, the meal plans and everything else if that's what they want to do.

But just the resilience protocol on its own is a free guide and we provide tons of information.

We have so many people that have said, Dr. Pete, my PSA levels have dropped.

I had prostate cancer, breast cancer, the tumors are shrinking.

And so we're just so, so grateful just to provide people hope and inspire them hopefully along the way.

So powerful.

So let me just ask you, what would you say was maybe something new that you added in the last year that you thought was the most powerful, whether it was physically or just, you know, I don't know how you felt energy wise, but you know, there's a lot of things in your modalities that you use.

There's a lot of different tests you did.

But did you feel like there was one thing or one area that was kind of like most eye opening to you or had the biggest impact?

Yeah, I just think just the five pillars of making sure that my diet's personalized supplements are personalized, that that would open up detoxification pathways and how important detoxification is when it comes to healing and, and then how that will improve oxygenation and then obviously faith and just living from the right vantage point and seeing my life and seeing the vision for my life and seeing my kids grow up and grandkids and so forth.

Without vision, people perish.

They cast off restraint.

And so making sure that I had a vision for the joy set before me you can endure.

And so making sure that I had a vision that was for my life in the future and really just beginning to meditate on that as well.

But I think, you know, some of the most simple things are just a mini trampoline and how effective and brilliant just jumping on a mini trampoline is just 10 minutes a day and how it just provides so many benefits from oxygenation to detoxification to improving circulation and lymphatic drainage and just being a great tool for exercise.

That was one of the, probably the simplest revelations, just how powerful a mini trampoline is.

And.

But then there's just so many other things that we've learned.

We're still learning.

We're still, you know, trying to be, to walk humbly and be very teachable and just to continue to ask the Lord to give us wisdom and discernment and how we empower a generation of cancer patients to truly get well.

So good.

Yeah.

And I have a mini trampoline or rebounder too, and I enjoy getting on it and I try to do it, you know, most every day, but it is, it's simple.

It doesn't take up a lot of space.

They usually can get, you know, put away or whatever.

So definitely there's a lot of research on that.

So, you know, I guess one thing I'd say is I think most people, we could all benefit from what you just said, which is we want to be people that continue to learn, that we continue to educate ourselves.

Because going and working with somebody, whether it's your practice of functional medicine, somebody is amazing and right.

They have the experience, they know what you might want to test on.

But at the end of the day, we have to be open minded.

We still have to do our own some learning.

So what, would you just share about that with people?

Because I think sometimes we just want to listen to the expert and that's okay, but we also need to just understand and educate ourselves, I think a bit as well.

I think that's the biggest thing is just empower yourself and educate yourself.

That what the doctor says doesn't have to be biblical.

Truth.

I respect, I submit to if you go to a doctor's office, but you have to understand the context as well.

You know, in the medical system right now, as long as they keep you within standard of care, they're protected under their malpractice.

So they have to almost play ignorant when it comes to lifestyle modification, when it comes to diet and so forth.

And most oncologists will tell you that diet means nothing, but that is garbage simply for the fact that they will give you a PET scan that will fill you up with radiographic glucose and light you up, your cancer up like a Christmas tree.

Yet food means nothing.

And I think those people that really focus on establishing the train, regardless of the treatment that they do, do better off.

And then the oncologists and the medical people that come to me every single week and say, Dr. B, whatever you say, we will do, but our hands are tied.

And so it's just unfortunately the system that many have succumbed to and they're really, their hands are tied in the midst of that system.

And so educate yourself, empower yourself, do research, do due diligence, and find a doctor that's willing to support you and is open to other alternatives and really just wants you to survive.

And knowing that all of these variables play a huge factor in whether you recover or not.

So good.

Okay, so last question.

What would you say is fueling you right now?

Is there anything that's just fueling your faith or fueling your life right now?

Just Jesus.

That Jesus has filled my boat and he's my everything.

And just to grow in greater and greater intimacy with him, knowing that my God is so big, so strong, and so my.

There's nothing my God cannot do.

Just because in the midst of the storm, the enemy tries to get up in your business, so to speak.

He tries to drown out the reality of who we are in Christ.

And just to know that Jesus is the lily in the midst of every valley that we walk through and that he is there.

He's an ever present help in a time of need.

He never leaves you nor forsakes you.

If God is for us, who cares who's against us?

He's our El Shaddai or God of more than enough.

And I really believe that he wants to be magnified in all of you, watching wholeness, body, soul and spirit.

So it's just Jesus.

Simply Jesus.

So good.

Yeah.

And remember, we are promised this.

We're not just promised everlasting life.

He wants us to be whole and healed, mind, body and spirit.

If we, you know, would just, if we have enough belief and then also take action.

So, so powerful.

Okay, so Dr. Pete, just tell us where's the best place for people to connect with you and learn more about your protocol and just more about your story?

Honestly, just simply following me on Instagram or Facebook.

Dr. Pete Sulek D R P E T E S U L A C K and then you can comment protocol in any one of the videos and follow your messages and you can download an 87 page guide free for you.

Hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world have downloaded it so far and I pray that it blesses you.

So good.

Well, thank you so much for joining us today, sharing your story of hope, sharing, you know, all the things that you put together for us just to understand how we can actually, whether we feel healthy or not whether we're walking through a health diagnosis.

We can kind of take back really having whole healthy bodies and of course, the power of prayer and our faith and how important, the most important thing that it is.

So thank you for joining me today.

It's been a huge honor.

I hope that Dr. Peet's story today just helped you to deepen your resolve to continue to grow in your faith with Jesus.

I hope that it was a reminder that we've got to believe what God promises us, which is he promises us healing, not just salvation.

And there's an episode that I recently shared with Kathleen Johnson about healed to heal.

And she's basically sharing stories throughout history of people that were divinely healed by God.

And so I just want to share a few things from that episode with you.

The first is the power of God is always available to anyone who's willing to believe it, speak it, and act on it.

That's when miracles happen.

That was by T.L.

osborne.

And then she goes on to say, there's more to the gospel.

Don't miss your healing.

We need to start seeing through the lens of God's promise.

All things are possible for the one who believes there is more than enough evidence this is true, but but only when we stop bringing God's word down to our experience, instead stand on his word until our experience rises to meet his truth in the unseen.

And one other point that she makes is Andrew Murray said he will heal him who asks in faith?

And then one important thing she says, when God heals you, it's never just for you.

And the reason I bring that up is much like Dr. Pete is doing, he is sharing his story.

He's sharing his testimony of healing.

He's sharing the protocol he used, including the healing scriptures that he prayed on, that he prayed over himself.

And so I just hope this episode encourages you.

Be your own best health advocate.

Find people to partner with.

Whether you're feeling good or whether you're walking through a diagnosis of chronic illness or cancer or a loved one is there is hope.

There's hope in your faith.

There's hope in getting your body to a place and fixing your terrain so that your body can do the miraculous, which is heal itself because it was designed to do just that.
