In this episode of Whole Body Health, Dr. JP Saleeby discusses the importance of vitamin A, its sources, different forms, health benefits, potential risks, and how to incorporate it effectively into your daily routine.

Forms and Sources of vitamin A - vitamin A exists in two primary forms:

1. Retinol – Found in animal-based foods such as oily fish, liver, eggs, cod liver oil, butter, and cheese.

2. Carotenoids – Derived from plant-based foods like carrots, squash, papaya, tomatoes, red bell peppers, sweet potatoes, and dark leafy greens. Bright orange fruits and vegetables are typically rich in carotenoids.

Health Benefits:
Vitamin A is critical for eye health and retinal function, for supporting the immune system, and for maintenance of skin and mucous membranes as well as for embryo development. Vitamin A helps prevent night blindness and cataracts, skin issues, a weakened immune system, premature aging, and lung disease, and can reduce effects of HIV/AIDS and measles.

Potential Risks:
Excessive vitamin A intake can lead to toxicity. High doses, especially when combined with alcohol, may cause liver damage. Individuals with liver disease should consult a healthcare provider before supplementing with vitamin A.

Recommended Dosage:
For adults, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) is 700–900 mcg of retinol equivalents (RE) per day. Vitamin A is considered safe when consumed in amounts less than 10,000 IU (or 3,000 mcg) daily. More information on the two forms of vitamin A and dosing can be found in this video.

In this episode of ‘Whole Body Health,’ Dr. JP Saleeby discusses what is DMSO is, what it may do for human health, potential downsides, and how to incorporate it properly. He also discusses the controversy around DMSO.

DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide) is a simple small molecule that is derived from lignin (a natural polymer found in pine and other softwood trees). It has been used for over 40 years and has notable biological, chemical, and physical characteristics.

It has been used to treat a wide range of illnesses and injuries, including osteoarthritis, cardiovascular disease, GI disorders (peptic and deodenal), respiratory disorders, ocular disorders, pancreatitis, diabetes, renal disease, urogenital disorders, and neuropathy.

There is a resurgence in interest in DMSO, but it is not without controversy. Watch now to learn more.

As gender transition procedures among youth become more common, a growing number of doctors are raising serious concerns—medical, ethical, and human rights alike. Can minors truly consent to irreversible medical interventions? Urgent questions demand honest answers.

This week, IMA Senior Fellow Dr. Ryan Cole hosts a powerful panel featuring IMA Senior Fellows Dr. Kimberly Milhoan and Dr. Katherine Welch. Together, they’ll lay out the medical case against transitioning minors—from the lack of informed consent to the long-term physical and psychological harm. Both guests bring deep clinical experience serving children and vulnerable populations—and both are sounding the alarm.

This discussion continues a powerful conversation first sparked during a panel at the 2025 IMA Conference. While the topic is often politicized, IMA approaches it from a medical and ethical standpoint. Our mission is rooted in patient-centered care and medical transparency, and protecting minors from irreversible harm fits squarely within that commitment.

What happens when government agencies start to reverse course on the most hotly debated public health policies of our time?

Join host Dr. Chris Martenson for a powerful conversation on the future of COVID-19 vaccine policy. He’s joined by former Deputy Assistant Secretary of HHS David Mansdoerfer and three special guests—Senator Ron Johnson, IMA Senior Fellow Dr. Jordan Vaughn, and attorney Warner Mendenhall of Freedom Counsel—for a timely breakdown of the May 21, 2025, U.S. Senate hearing on COVID-19 vaccine development and safety.

With HHS now considering the removal of COVID-19 shots from the CDC’s recommended schedule for children and pregnant women, we could see a dramatic reshaping of the legal, medical, and political landscape. Our panel will explore what this move could mean for liability protections under the PREP Act, vaccine policy, public trust, and the future of informed consent.

Momentum around mRNA vaccine reform is building. Last week, we launched our Smart Moms Ask campaign to end recommendations for children and pregnant women—and now federal agencies are beginning to reconsider vaccine policy. At the heart of this shift is one of IMA’s core pillars for healthcare reform: Transparency in Medicine. It’s not just a guiding principle—it’s a catalyst for change. Don’t miss this critical conversation about what comes next.
