Dr. Fred Clary's Podcast

A selective pressure is any reason for organisms with certain phenotypes to have either a survival benefit or disadvantage. Selective pressures leads natural selection .  Viruses follow the laws of biology like Selective Pressure.  Mutations (Variants) lead to changes and survivability of the virus.  Too many pressures lead to weakening of the virus.  Minimal selective pressures lead to the statis...

Recently we have banned a Olympic runner for the use of a Performance Reducing Drug.   As we have seen with the Pandemic, those in control and power are not always the brightest bulbs on the tree (despite there degrees or titles).  Common sense is not a commodity.  Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher vents abou...

What many of us had learned and memorized as science, biology and mathematics was thrown out very publicly in 2019-2021.  Biology was twisted and the uneducated or forgetful elites (that's most MD's and PhD's) allowed this to happen.  Of course the "New" revelations that came to light recently show that the unforgetting minority (we did not forget our biology education) we...

Living in the present moment means no longer worrying about what happened in the past and not fearing what will happen in the future. It means enjoying what’s happening now and living for today. Choosing to live in the past or the future not only robs you of enjoyment today, but it also robs you of truly living. The only important moment is the present moment. Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional...

It’s human nature to search for belonging. From our first day of kindergarten and well into adulthood, we gravitate toward those who reflect the kind of qualities we are most comfortable with. To say we are looking for “our tribe” means that we are looking for people who share commonalities or possess the traits we aspire to adapt. Whether it’s a family, community, or group of fellow practitioners...

Roger Revelle gave us the concept of Global Warming.  Everyone has forgot his name, his theories, his equations, his science and his metered approach to the world's climate.   We know more today than we did in 1957!  Why are we still living like it's 1957????Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher asks yo...

It's the 68th week of the Two Week Lockdown to flatten the curve.   Academics are shattered.  The Social order for youth has been corrupted.  Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher asks you to consider some ideas in biology that could change your life. None of these facts are in the media or spoken by our so...

The behavioral immune system is a phrase used to refer to a suite of psychological mechanisms that allow individual organisms to detect the potential presence of infectious parasites or pathogens in their immediate environment, and to engage in behaviors that prevent contact with those objects and individuals. The existence of a behavioral immune system has been documented across many animal speci...

Health status is talked about on every main stream media broadcast for the last year.  Not one broadcast covers factors that you can control AND positively impact your immune system.    Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher asks you to consider that  the FACTORS YOU CAN CONTROL that positively impact your health,...

We are not alone. The metabolic potential of all animals is augmented by that of a vast diversity of resident microbes. All animals bear many, metabolically diverse microorganisms that are responsible for a significant fraction of the inventory of compounds in animal tissues and secretions . In principle, the metabolic capabilities of microorganisms enable animal hosts to sample chemical diversity...

One way influenza viruses change is called “antigenic drift.” These are small changes (or mutations) in the genes of viruses that can lead to changes in the surface proteins of the virus. The surface proteins of influenza viruses are “antigens,” which means they are recognized by the immune system and are capable of triggering an immune response, including production of antibodies that can block i...

Symbiosis is the way in which organisms live together for their mutual, and therefore, intrinsic benefit. In just one area, the human being has a symbiotic relationship with the microbiome, which are commensal organisms that live with us. The various flora play roles in the structural integrity of the organism to prevent the entry of noncommensal organisms. They play functional roles in metabolism...

The biggest variable of this 'pandemic' is not the virus.  It's the Host!!! Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher asks you to consider that we can change out resistance to infection either positively or negatively.    None of these facts are in the media or spoken by our so called leaders.   We sho...

The majority live in a bubble of misinformation and inaccuracies.   As humans, we are wrong the majority of the time.   If we build our lives around scientific methods and the null hypothesis,  critical thinking becomes prevalent. Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher asks you to consider : when you have eliminat...

With severe or even moderate trauma the brain rewires. It can rewire in the areas of pleasure, engagement, control, and trust. These stressors (traumatic event) overwhelm the nervous system and stops the event from being properly processed emotionally. The negative emotional overload is “stored” in the victim’s muscles, connective tissue, and organs. It can be addressed by dealing with the physica...

Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifti...

Most people are limited by false beliefs that they accepted from their teachers, preachers and parents.  These false opinions sometimes ruin all possibilities for success. Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher begs you to wake up and realize your own value. 

Your brain loves dopamine.  It can lead to horrible chemical and behavioral addictions that ruin lives and families.  BUT, most people do not look at beliefs and thoughts that are self limiting.   You can be just as addicted to 'stinking thinking ' as cocaine! You will even FIGHT FOR your self limiting behaviors and beliefs!!!!!  Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropracti...

A virus can be simply defined as an obligate intracellular parasite . Each viral particle, or virion , consists of a single nucleic acid, RNA or DNA, encoding the viral genome surrounded by a protein coat, and is capable of replication only within the living cells of bacteria, animals or plants. Viruses are classified into different orders and families by consideration of the type of nucleic acid...

The future is unclear and ambiguous. We do not know when or if things will ever go back to usual. There is no authoritative timeline. There is no clear concept for solution. We have guesses, hypotheses and hopes, but not much else. Here in the liminal valley, we’re constrained by our limitations—the limitations of our intellect, ingenuity, planning and preparation. We’re daily threatened by the re...

This Last year has been a pandemic of ignorance. Ignorance (lack of knowledge ) about biology and statistics basics. Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher vents about the lack of knowledge and the blind acceptance of silliness and anti-scientific thought. 

Sport psychology is a proficiency that uses psychological knowledge and skills to address optimal performance and well-being of athletes, developmental and social aspects of sports participation, and systemic issues associated with sports settings and organizations.  Focusing on human physical and mental  achievement is it's ultimate goal.  Why can't we apply these concepts to every aspe...
