“Over 30,000 veterans have committed suicide since this war [in Afghanistan] started, and we’ve lost about 7,500 on the battlefield. So in theory, it’s more dangerous for us being back home than it was for us being in combat.”
~ Bryan Buckley, Marine Raider
In this episode, John Malanca interviews Bryan Buckley, combat veteran and founder of the Battle Brothers Foundation and the Helmand Valley Growers Company, to describe the physical and emotional traumas he suffered during the war – and why coming home can be more dangerous for veterans than armed conflict.
Chronic pain, PTS, depression, and anxiety are a major issue for U.S. veterans. Sadly, very few receive the help they need and deserve.
The veteran suicide rate is 1.5 times as much as the rate for civilians.
We believe that medical cannabis is the future of safe and effective treatment for our veterans. That’s why HVGC donates 100% of their profits to the Battle Brothers Foundation. This foundation empowers veterans through community-based personal development, progressive medical treatments to better their lives and the lives of their families, and economic upward mobility.
Please watch and share Bryan’s story, and consider donating to the Battle Brothers Foundation so that Bryan can continue his mission to help America’s heroes.

Join us in this week’s podcast as John Malanca interviews Joe Dolce, the former editor-in-chief of Details magazine. Follow this remarkable individual as he discusses the history, future and truths, myths, and the common misconceptions surrounding pot/marijuana/cannabis...call it what you will, it’s all good for you!

Our podcast will delight you as Joe and John discuss the ever-evolving world of cannabis. Whatever it has been called, cannabis has a long history of human use and helpful benefits.
Dolce explains the historical relevance of the cannabis plant, its descent into the forbidden and finally into a Schedule I illegal “drug” and back again, state by state, while remaining federally illegal.

As Joe travels around the world seeking societal input on whether cannabis is helpful or not, he will surprise and delight with tales of cannabis’ success, its history of prohibition, the welcomed surprise of those who use it for medical purposes and the fight which continues for full acceptance of this ancient plant. As Malanca and Dolce discuss the political landscape and its influence on marijuana, we find that perhaps we don’t know the truth about this sacred herb and that the answers to questions inevitably lead to more questions about cannabis!

Tune in to watch something a bit different, yet very relevant in today’s world, and so very helpful when you ask yourself, “Should I use cannabis? Is it a dangerous ‘drug’? Do stoners know something I don’t and if cannabis is so effective in the treatment of disease and symptoms why are powers beyond my control dictating my health and wellness choices?”

Some of the questions and their answers will enlighten your mind, warm your heart, fuel your anger and perhaps confirm what you knew or change what you thought was the truth.

Tune in to see!

Watch this powerful podcast as John Malanca interviews Dr. Charles Bens, a corporate wellness coach, nutritionist, speaker, author and expert in alternative therapies, and treating COVID.
John Malanca, in a podcast which is true to UPG’s mission of Be Informed. Be Well. discusses health maintenance and disease prevention with Dr. Charles Bens.
Dr. Bens who achieved his PhD in his 60s, has made it his profession to promote wellness. After being told he needed surgery for a urinary tract disorder, he picked up a small booklet for $4.95 on how to treat and reverse urinary problems while enhancing prostate health. Within 4 months he was completely cured and no longer needed surgery. Spurred on by this hugely successful outcome, he found his life’s purpose.
Dr. Bens lectures extensively and is an active consultant to large corporations on the benefits of diet, supplements, exercise and disease prevention through his workshops, corporate events, private practice and extensive writing.
He has learned that the sooner you expose a trajectory to chronic illness in an individual, the quicker you can prevent and even reverse this linear path to disease. Assessments including exams, blood work and changing habits which can help change the tract to potential disease.
Dr. Bens reveals that the number one problem with health maintenance in adults is something he calls “nutritional delusion”. Find out why and watch along and learn the benefits which are available to all of us.
As a bonus, Dr. Bens discusses his COVID protocol which has an enormous success rate.

Join John Malanca as he speaks openly about his grief journey after the passing of his beautiful wife Corinne. He shares his thoughts and experiences with mother and daughter grief counselors, Drs. Gloria and Heidi Horsley, even as they embark on their own grief journey after Gloria’s son died suddenly in an accident also leaving her daughter Heidi without her beloved brother and the recent passing of Gloria’s husband, Heidi’s father.
Listen in to this poignant yet hope filled podcast. In the early 80s Dr. Gloria Horsley lost her son in a tragic accident. Realizing there was little support for siblings and watching her three daughters grieve his loss spurred her to action and to her life’s work.
Ultimately, the Horsleys started the “Open to Hope Foundation”. Now, shortly after experiencing the loss of her husband, both Gloria and Heidi speak openly with John Malanca about grief and the journey of Hope and a purposeful life. These courageous ladies discuss the death of a partner, beloved or not, a child, sibling, parent or any loved one.
They offer important information, such as there being hope after loss, that real men do cry, there is no research of any kind showing an increase in divorce after the death of a child or loved one, and that a baby after the loss of a child is referred to as a “Rainbow Baby”. Some other topics of interest in this compelling podcast is that there is no right or wrong way to grieve, and that losing a parent even as an adult can be much harder than one might think.
Listen in, or watch John, Gloria and Heidi discuss this difficult yet most important topic. Whether you have experienced personal loss or are just interested in the process, grief remains one of the most profound of human experiences.
You will be happy you tuned in! Follow Gloria and Heidi on Podcasts, national news, on their website; http://www.opentohope.com or via http://www.unitedpatientsgroup.com.

Dr. Patricia Frye, an integrative expert in cannabis and its action in auto-immune disease, is called upon by patients whose bodies are seemingly attacking themselves. This bizarre action by our own defense mechanism is often misunderstood and poorly treated. In this UPG podcast, John Malanca discusses cannabis and treating diseases when the battleground is within ourselves.
Most of us have heard of the struggles and often devastation caused when, for some unknown reason, approximately 10 million patient’s bodies attack themselves. This broad-brush term “auto-immune” means the individual has little defense against a disease which has attacked them. In this podcast, John Malanca and Dr. Frye discuss aspects of these diseases which include: What is an autoimmune disease? Some of the more better known but still somewhat poorly understood include; Lupus, celiac disease, MS, Type 1 Diabetes, Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
For those who suffer from these and other diseases of unknown origin often wonder if Cannabis helps? In order to understand the how and whys, John and Dr. Frye discuss what are the worst autoimmune diseases? Are autoimmune diseases curable? Are you born with autoimmune diseases? Are autoimmune diseases genetic? In addition, they also discuss; what is the difference between autoimmune diseases vs disorders?
What causes autoimmune diseases? What is the life expectancy of someone with autoimmune disease? Do people with autoimmune disease get sick more often and does having an autoimmune disease mean you have a weakened immune system? Tune in to watch this fascinating interview and learn about Cannabis, symptom management, treatment, and general knowledge of these rare and often difficult diseases to treat.
