Medical Freedom, Cancer, and the Courage to Choose — Billy Best’s Story | Ep 96
In Episode 96 of Good Healthy by Claudia, Claudia and Denny Schaffer host one of the most powerful and important conversations in the show’s history — a deeply human discussion about cancer, medical freedom, fear, and the right to choose.
Joining the episode are:
Billy Best, whose teenage decision to refuse chemotherapy became an international story| https://www.billybest.net/

Kevin Miller, longtime advocate for health freedom and storyteller of untold medical narratives

At just 16 years old, Billy was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma and faced an impossible choice: submit to aggressive chemotherapy or follow his intuition and seek another path. His decision — to walk away from conventional treatment — sparked global headlines, legal threats, media scrutiny, and decades of debate around medical autonomy and alternative care.
In this episode, Billy tells his story in his own words.
You’ll hear about:
Billy’s cancer diagnosis and refusal of chemotherapy as a teenager

The fear, pressure, and legal threats faced by families who choose differently

How hospitals and authorities respond when patients opt out of standard treatment

The emotional and physical toll of chemotherapy on young patients

Billy’s alternative approach, including dietary changes, detoxification, Essiac tea, and lymphatic support

The role belief, hope, and mindset play in healing

Why medical freedom remains a critical issue today

How Billy’s experience parallels other high-profile cases

The lack of research funding for nutritional and integrative therapies

Why informed choice should be a fundamental human right in healthcare

Billy is also the author of The Billy Best Story: Beating Cancer with Alternative Medicine, available in paperback, Kindle, and audiobook formats, where he shares the full depth of his journey.
This episode is not about telling anyone what to choose — it’s about preserving the right to choose, asking better questions, and treating health with dignity, compassion, and integrity.
⚠️ This is a must-listen for parents, patients, healthcare professionals, and anyone concerned about medical freedom.

Clean Supplements, Bone Health & What Quality Really Means — with Rick Simpson of Emerald Labs |95
In Episode 95 of Good Healthy by Claudia, Claudia and Denny Schaffer welcome Rick Simpson, Founder and CEO of Emerald Labs, for an honest, behind-the-scenes conversation about supplement quality, regulation, and integrity in the natural health industry.
With over 25 years of experience building Emerald Labs as an additive-free, family-owned company, Rick shares his journey through the evolution of dietary supplements — from early DSHEA regulations to today’s FDA-audited manufacturing standards.
This episode pulls back the curtain on what truly separates high-quality supplements from the rest.
In this conversation, you’ll learn:
How dietary supplements are actually regulated in the U.S.

Why reputable supplement companies meet drug-level manufacturing standards

What “additive-free” really means — and why it matters

The truth about magnesium stearate, fillers, and flow agents

How sourcing, testing, and in-house manufacturing protect consumers

Why bone loss happens — and how nutrition can support bone integrity

The science behind microcrystalline hydroxyapatite and chelated minerals

Why vitamin K2, magnesium, and turmeric matter for bone health

How bioavailability determines whether nutrients actually work

Why independent companies are vital to education and consumer trust

Rick also explains how Emerald Labs formulates clinically informed products using human research, stable nutrient forms, and clean sourcing — all while maintaining transparency and accountability.
As always, Claudia emphasizes education over fear, baby steps over overwhelm, and working with the body rather than overpowering it.
If you’ve ever wondered:
“How do I know a supplement is clean?”

“Are supplements really regulated?”

“What should I look for in a bone formula?”

“Who can I trust in the natural health space?”

This episode delivers clarity.

As the holidays wrap up and the new year approaches, Claudia and Denny take a refreshing—and realistic—approach to January health goals. In this episode, they explain why New Year’s resolutions fail and why a gentle reset is a far better path to lasting health.
The conversation begins with a powerful new study published in The Lancet linking ultra-processed foods to damage in every major organ of the body. Claudia breaks down why this doesn’t surprise her, how the modern food system is failing people, and what simple food choices can dramatically change your health trajectory.
Instead of extreme cleanses or all-or-nothing thinking, this episode focuses on baby-step changes that actually stick—starting with what you eat, drink, and how you support your gut.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
Why ultra-processed foods are harming human health

The difference between “resolutions” and a true health reset

How to rebuild health after the holidays without deprivation

Why gut health is the foundation of energy, weight, and immunity

The importance of probiotics, minerals, and clean water

How blood type can guide smarter food choices

Why food quality matters more than food trends

How to prioritize health without overwhelm or guilt

Practical Reset Tips Discussed:
Focus on whole, real foods instead of packaged convenience foods

Start with probiotics, a quality multivitamin, and vitamin D3 + K2

Drink more clean, mineral-rich water

Reduce sugar and ultra-processed foods gradually

Move your body daily—even short walks matter

Make sustainable changes instead of drastic restrictions

Claudia also shares why supporting local farmers, simplifying meals, and reconnecting with real food can be one of the most powerful acts of self-care—and even peaceful protest—in today’s world.
This episode is perfect for anyone who wants to feel better in the new year without falling into the same resolution cycle.
