Dr. Kevin Conners
Hello, everybody. This is Dr. Kevin Conners. We have a special guest today, Dr. Greg Howard. He is the new owner of the company that we use for all our Rife machines, TrueRife, and the company that I’ve boasted about for so many years because it’s helped so many of our patients. I’m excited to have you on, Dr. Greg, and excited to hear about all the new things that you’re adding to this company and creating, for people to be better help. This is all going to be about true Rife, all about what you’re doing. Let’s get started.
Dr. Greg Howard
All right. Thanks for having me, Kevin.
Dr. Kevin Conners
So if you could start by introducing yourself to our listeners so they know who you are. They’re familiar with Mike, who used to own TrueRife, but let’s get to know you.
Dr. Greg Howard
All right. My name is Dr. Gregory Howard. I am a medical doctor. I went to the University of Texas Medical School in Houston, and then I was an anesthesiologist for about 25 years. How I got interested in things like TrueRife and energy medicine really starts 20 years ago. Twenty years ago, I had a heart arrhythmia, and I needed something called an ablation, and that was supposed to take care of my heart arrhythmia. That’s a very traditional Western medicine. I went in and they gave me a blood thinner called Heparin. Unfortunately for me, I had an allergic reaction to it, and a certain percentage of people that get this blood thinner Heparin, have blood clots. I was one of those people. So it took a day or so. I knew something bad was happening, and all of my blood clotted. Obviously, that’s catastrophic. I happened to be in the Texas Medical Center, and the diagnosis I had was something called Heparin-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia. Long name, relatively rare, although every day in the Texas Medical Center, which is a big regional facility, so they get patients from all over, there’s four or five people in the Texas Medical Center all the time that are trying to recover from this HIT syndrome.
It’s terrible. I was left with all kinds of physical and mental deficits. After a few months, I knew I wasn’t getting any better, so I’d been to all the best doctors. My wife is also a physician – she was Chief of Staff at Methodist Hospital here in Houston. She had all the people trying to help in any way. They did the best they could, but I knew that I wasn’t going to get out of this anytime soon.I was stabilized. I was in the hospital about three weeks, but I was stabilized, and made my way to UCLA. There’s a guy named Joseph Helms, and he has medical acupuncture for physicians. So I thought, well, maybe they can somehow help me. So I went out there, enrolled in this, and I was there about three weeks. Every day they would run electricity through me using acupuncture needles, basically hooked to nine volt batteries. After three weeks, I could tell I was getting better. I came home, showed my wife how to do this, and within a year, I was back to normal. In fact, I was pretty skinny. I only weighed 160 pounds, but very strong, and I could run again, and everything was back to normal. So I started using this on professional athletes, making them stronger.
Dr. Kevin Conners
So were you still working as an anesthesiologist at that time, or did you-
Dr. Greg Howard
No, I worked very, very part-time. I was just trying to get myself back into health. I was chief of a large medical center, and I stepped down from that. I just worked a little bit – part-time, trying to get myself back, physical health back.
Over the years, we bought many, many different electromagnetic type devices. A lot of them were very expensive and didn’t really do much. They were powerful, but only had one or two frequencies in a high mode, low intensity, really not much there. Then a couple of years ago, I was at a conference: Association of Natural Health, and I was speaking there and I saw this TrueRife machine and I thought, I have to buy one. We probably had 10 similar devices at home, so one more was no big deal. So I bought it, and really it sat in my closet for probably six months. I really didn’t even use it, but then I was exercising and pulled a calf muscle, so I thought this is a good time to try to see if this thing really works. We use peptides and all kinds of healing, so I injected my my calf muscle with a peptide, and ran a couple of different Rife programs for 90 minutes. My calf felt pretty normal!This was in the evening.I thought, in the morning, I’m going to wake up and it’s going to be slightly better, but not much is really going to happen. But, when I got up in the morning, it felt really normal. I went out and did what I was going to do and even exercised.
It healed overnight, and I thought: That’s impossible! Then I was on the lookout for someone else with an injury. I found a few people with injuries, did the same thing, injected them with peptide and ran the Rife machine, and they got better. Then I bought a couple more machines from Mike – the TrueRife machines, and put them in a clinic. Then we used them in an experimental capacity on different things. I just jokingly said with Mike: Hey, when are you going to put this company for sale? He said, I put it for sale a few days ago. My life has been nothing but these weird by-chance experiences. I just felt that I’m supposed to buy this company. After about six months of due diligence, my business partner, Jake Daniels and I bought the company, and we’re going to do the best we can to improve it. Mike did a great job, but we look at things a little bit different. Being a medical doctor, I have just a little bit of a different approach. We have a great relationship with Mike, and he stayed on with us for six months to teach us everything he knew.
Mike retired on April 20th, but we still talk to Mike. He’s playing golf every day. In fact, I used to the golfer, and now he’s the golfer. He walks … he says he’s playing 36 holes a day, almost every day. He lost 20 pounds.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Wow.
Dr. Greg Howard
Yeah, because I don’t know how many miles it is to walk two rounds of golf every day, but he’s put a lot of miles in. But we still talk to Mike, maybe two or three times a week. We became friends with him.
Dr. Kevin Conners
That’s great. Well, you have done a lot. It’s interesting because we talk to a lot of alternative practitioners, and I often wonder: Why did you get into doing what you’re doing? They were surgeons or something. It was because of their experience, because they had an experience. That’s what could drive a person to make lifestyle changes when you have this experience. Now, where do you see moving the TrueRife Company? What have you done so far? I want to our listeners to know that because I think you made a lot of improvements already. Where do you see moving forward a year, two, three, five years down the road?
Dr. Greg Howard
Well, I want to mention something else that we do that goes a little bit hand-in-hand with TrueRife. So we have another passion. Our other passion is cancer research. My wife and I, we started a Hippocrates Research Foundation roughly two years ago. We started that, again, out of necessity.
My dad had cancer 12 years ago, and it started with tonsil cancer and he took traditional therapy for that – the chemo and radiation. Surgery wasn’t recommended, but he did the chemo and radiation. He was a big guy, and he was roughly 78 years old when he was diagnosed. He was treated my medical center, so he knew my friends, and we were the owners of this place. One was a head and neck surgeon, and the other was a radiation oncologist, so he was comfortable with it. He took the traditional therapy. He was a big guy, probably 220 or 230 pounds and after treatment, he was down to 140 pounds. I mean, it really beat him up. Then about a year and a half after he got the traditional therapy, he got primary lung cancer. It was pretty advanced when they diagnosed it. They said: well, that was just a side effect of the radiation that you got to your neck, because he had a lot of radiation to the neck from the tonsil cancer. So he was pretty much tapped out. He didn’t want to do any more chemo or radiation. So that was that. But I just had a sixth sense about this. The other thing that happened, similar time, was my wife was diagnosed with malignant melanoma and ovarian cancer. So now I’m all in on cancer research. I’ve got my dad and I’ve got my wife.
I started working with a group, Quest Nutrition. They sold the little protein Quest Bars and were spending a lot of money – millions and millions of dollars – on cancer research. Just by chance, my daughter was going to the University of Texas as an undergrad, and I was reading a local paper there that said: We want dogs with cancer. So of course, that intrigues me. There was no other explanation. I thought: there’s got to be a story why they want these dogs with cancer. I called them and found out it was the Quest Nutrition Guys. They had this state-of-the-art facility just outside of Austin, where my daughter was going to school. I got permission to go see it, and they were treating dogs with cancer.
They were using hyperbaric oxygen and a ketogenic diet and having great success. I found that they didn’t have a medical director, so I went and interviewed with them, and they wanted to hire me as a medical director. I just wanted to help, so I worked for free with those guys for quite a few years, and I had my other commitments and contacts, so I was working at cancer in a different realm. I was looking at it in a different way. We were using circulating cancer stem cells. I was using the Greece Test from RGCC – a lot of people know about that. We were using that to treat my wife’s cancer. Originally, she had surgery to take out her melanoma, and then she had surgery to take out her ovaries. It was very, very early, so we thought she was cancer-free. Then we looked at the circulating cancer stem cells. She still had circulating cancer stem cells.
Then with the Quest guys – Quest was spending a lot of money, so we started running circulating cancer stem cells on all different types of cancer. People who thought they were cancer free. No one was cancer free. Everyone had circulating cancer stem cells. We were just trying everything on my wife, but she didn’t do the keto… Well, she did for a while. She did do the ketogenic diet but never did hyperbaric, and we were able to keep her circling cancer stem cells down by different means. Anyway, what I’d like to do, what we’re doing is we’re trying to see if True Rife, if using different frequencies would have any effect on circulating cancer stem cells. That’s a project we have going on.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Well, I can say that all the years using Rife technology with cancer patients, that’s a common question that people have is: When are they going to do any research on using frequencies for cancers? It’s going to be exciting to see that data when it comes out. I’m looking forward to that.
Dr. Greg Howard
Well, there’s a company called Novocure, and they are FDA-approved for glioblastoma and mesothelioma lung cancer. I don’t know if you’ve heard of that company or not. They’ve been around for at least a decade and they’re doing clinical trials on at least 10 more types of cancer. The precedent is there. There’s another company out of Germany that -I’m blanking on the name, but they’re also using frequencies. There’s a lot of in vitro studies showing that there’s an effect from frequencies on cancer. It’s going to take probably a year or two, and running a lot of tests on different people. But yeah, we’ll figure that out eventually.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Well, that’s fantastic. So are there other changes that you’ve made to TrueRife in just a few months that you have been a part of this company?
Dr. Greg Howard
Yeah. We have another business partner, and he’s an IT guy. So in the next week or two, we’re going to roll out new software. So it’s going to be a version 6.1 software, and it’s going to be free to everyone. That’s going to have different features, like a stacking feature. A lot of people, for overnight, they like to put one program after the next throughout the night, and we’re going to make that a lot easier. Then also a little clock on it so you know how many minutes and hours that you have as you’re stacking the programs. I haven’t seen that piece of it yet, but we’ve been using 6.1 software for the last couple of months here at TrueRife here in Texas, testing it out.
We also are working on a new board that’s supposed to be better. There’s a few common problems that we saw. I mean, not real common, but we wanted to take care of them, so the new board is supposed to take care of that. It’s going to be a lot cleaner, and in the future when you open up the inside of a F-122 generator, there are going to be a lot less parts because it’ll be integrated into the new board.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Oh, nice.
Dr. Greg Howard
About a week or so ago, we introduced the new overnight tornado bulb. That’s encased in plastic, and it has more range than the crystal hammer bulb. The crystal hammer bulb has been the most popular bulb for years and years, and now the overnight tornado bulb, it’ll just have more range. With range comes power, so every foot that you’re closer to the bulb, there’s exponentially more power. The range is another few feet on the overnight tornado compared to the crystal hammer bulb.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Yeah, that’s fantastic, too. Well, you’ve made a lot of updates to just the marketing piece of it and you’re standing in front of the TrueRife logo there. You’re updating the website information-wise has been just a great improvement, too, that I think that our patients have noticed.
Dr. Greg Howard
Well, thank you. We moved the headquarters from Kalamazoo, Michigan, down here to Texas a couple of months ago. That was a big step for us. We had some key employees that were kind enough to follow us down. So they made a big move and lifestyle change. We have one person, Lou. She can manufacture anything. She came down with one other employee, and then we hired local people in Texas. We do all the manufacturing down here. Ashley answers the phone and she knows the software better than I do. She came down and she’s been a big help. We hired other people to start answering the phones. We’re really trying to beef up both production, new updates, make everything easier for everyone, and then customer service. Most of the time we have four people answering the phone. Mike was doing it alone before. I don’t know how he did it. He was a busy guy.
Dr. Kevin Conners
You could tell he’d get a little short-tempered with people at the end of a busy week. But just great improvements. People were worried, honestly. I had a lot of patients that said: Oh, my goodness, Rife got bought out. This is not a good thing. I just kept reassuring them: No, I already talked to Dr. Greg. He’s going to do great things with it, and I had all the confidence, and you’ve proved me correct there, so I appreciate that. So people are happy with the changes. We love Mike. We still love Mike, but you just made another step forward in progress, and it’s just really great.
Dr. Greg Howard
Yeah, someone had to step up because what I was afraid of is if Mike retired and no one bought the company, it could just fizzle out, right? Mike, he was a great inventor, but he didn’t have schematics written down, like how to produce this stuff, and the staff was fairly old. Ron, he was in charge of manufacturing, and he was 84 years old. So the average age was up there. It was funny because Ron, he tested every machine and every bulb that went out. Throughout every day, there was a program playing right where he was working. So I’m thinking that the TrueRife might have kept him going because he’s in pretty good shape at 84.
Dr. Kevin Conners
That’s right. Well, you think of how much technology over the centuries have been lost when inventors passed away and nobody took anything over for them. It’s sad. So this has been a blessing for a lot of people. Anything else you could add for our listeners of what you have planned in the future?
Dr. Greg Howard
Well, we’re also working with athletes. My wife, she’s a physician, but she’s really more of a full-time triathlete. So when she got cancer 10 years ago, roughly, I don’t know what possessed her, but she says: I’m going to do a triathlon. The crazy thing was she’d never swam, biked or run in her life. With big life changes, like getting diagnosed with cancer, I don’t know, but her life changed, and she just had this in her mind that she was going to do a triathalon. So she bought the expensive bike, hired the coaches, and I was thinking: This is going to last a month at most, and we’re done. I really didn’t get involved, but I’d already been running frequencies through professional athletes, so I knew how to get someone in shape and all this, but I didn’t even want to get involved until she was committed. Anyway, after a few months, she was committed, I could tell, she did a little sprint, triathlon or something. I thought: Okay, I’m going to get involved. We did a lot of blood testing, and all the different things. The end result was that in two years, she qualified and made the US Ironman team, and we went to Sweden for the world champion Championship.
It was really incredible because it’s like the Olympics. Every country walks in with their 30 or so athletes. There’s two or three people for each age group, men and women. Att the time, I think she was in the 45 to 50 age group, or it could have been the 50 to 55, but she was just about 50 years old. That was pretty neat to see my wife representing the United States in these big games.
Since then, we’ve worked on quite a few professional athletes. We know what we can do with frequencies and the other things that we’re doing, like grounding… and we only sell one supplement on TrueRife, and that’s called Youthful Energy. All of these things are to fix mitochondria and promote healing and recovery. In endurance athletics, if you’re running a marathon or theses things, if you can repair faster than the next person, unless they’re completely genetically better than you, you can beat them long term because you’re going to repair and you can work out much harder. Anyway, that’s been a big piece of the puzzle for my wife in doing well in these triathlons because she was not gifted in that. People figure that out usually when they’re in junior high or high school. Hey, I’m a good runner, I’m a good swimmer, I’m a cyclist. Well, she was none of those. So it was pretty incredible to see her do so well – and she’s still doing doing a triathlon. This spring, she did the 140-mile race and also a 70-mile race. In the fall, she’s already set up to do another one.
I think that also helps with her cancer journey, because at first we were worried that these circulating cancer stem cells would go crazy. She was on the ketogenic diet and taking all these different supplements. Now it’s just become easier and easier. We have a lot of things left in the toolbox that we could use on her, but as long as she’s training, I think it’s the oxygenation, the circulation, and somehow, a strong immune system, keeps all that in check. I’m waiting for the day – eventually she’s got to retire from this, and slow down. I joke that she’s almost 60, and if she can keep this up for another five years, there’s not many women at 65 doing these 140-mile races, so she’ll be top in the world at that point if she can keep it up another five years.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Well, this has really sparked your interest in using TrueRife and introducing TrueRife to athletes.
Dr. Greg Howard
Yes. We’re going to introduce TrueRife Athlete at some point. We’re speaking to someone that’s a five-time world champion and triathlete.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Another exciting adventure, another exciting addition, to see how frequencies can help people in so many ways. Well, I just thank you for being on. I’d love to have you back on again when new things are introduced so that our listeners can just be excited that they made the right decision in getting a TrueRife. We have testimonial after testimonial of people being healed from cancers and autoimmune diseases and chronic Lyme, and everything. It’s good to hear that they have confidence in the company that they’re working with. Thank you, Dr. Greg. Appreciate all you do.
Dr. Greg Howard
All right. Yeah. Thanks for having me on, Kevin.
Dr. Kevin Conners
Absolutely. Bye-bye now.
Dr. Greg Howard
Bye.
