Anthony William
The Medical Medium
About
Anthony William is the originator of the Global Celery Juice Movement and the #1 New York Times best-selling author of the Medical Medium book series. For over 25 years he has been helping people overcome and prevent illness and suffering through the advanced healing information he receives from the Spirit of Compassion.
Since the age of four, Anthony has possessed the ability to read people's conditions and identify root causes of illness with unprecedented accuracy — causes that are often misdiagnosed or dismissed by conventional medicine. Through his books, podcasts, and live broadcasts, he shares healing information that is decades ahead of current science and research.
Anthony describes himself not as a healer, but as a messenger — someone whose purpose is to bring advanced knowledge from the Spirit of Compassion to the chronically ill who have lost hope. His mission is to validate people's suffering and give them the tools to heal.
His Books
Early Childhood
From ages six to nine, grocery store trips with his parents were anything but ordinary. Anthony would pull on strangers' arms and tell them what was wrong with them. His parents would try to make quick getaways while he sat in the parking lot talking to four or five people in the rain, his parents calling, "Come on, Anthony. Let's go."
He also had a habit of disappearing into the woods for hours at a time to forage. Spirit would guide him to which plants were safe — skunk cabbage, fiddlehead ferns, plantain, rose hips, wild hickory nuts. He would bring home baskets of hickory nuts while his mother worried. At age eight, he came out of the woods very sick after eating too many fiddlehead ferns — he had eaten them until he was stuffed.
Early Career
Before writing any books, Anthony spent years doing one-on-one readings for people out of his office. His waiting list eventually grew from thousands to hundreds of thousands to millions. People would be carried or helped into his office they were so sick. He worked from 6 in the morning until midnight, seven days a week, taking emergency calls throughout the night — and never took a vacation.
His office was lined with hundreds of glass jars full of herbs and spices, which his father recalls smelled like a barn. Spirit would tell him how to mix special herb combinations for each person's specific illness. It was the constant demand — people urging him to write a book to reach more people — that eventually led to the Medical Medium series.
Family Life
His Grandmother
Anthony William's personal introduction to cancer came at age four when Spirit appeared to him and instructed him to tell his grandmother she had lung cancer. She went to the doctor, and a chest X-ray confirmed she had lung cancer. When he later asked Spirit how it happened, Spirit explained that it was a combination of a virus (EBV) plus toxins (heavy metals, DDT, pesticides, solvents, plastics, and petroleum). This experience drove his lifetime dedication to understanding and healing cancer.
His Father
Anthony's father is described as having a million-year-old soul — someone who sees things other people don't see, with a foresight and intuition particularly attuned to animals and nature. He is a hard worker and a deeply caring person, attentive to details and to what people are going through.
Together they have rescued hundreds of turtles over the years — often stopping on highways to carry them to safety — and have planted thousands of mulberry trees, taking hundreds of cuttings at a time during the dormant season and doing the hard physical work of propagating new trees. Anthony has described the two of them getting mulberry stains all over their clothes as they harvest the ripe berries each season, and doing "mulberry meditations" looking up at the jewel-like fruit hanging from the tall trees.
In a February 2026 podcast episode — "A Chat With My Dad" — Anthony described his father as camera-shy and mic-shy, and expressed that there is far more ground to cover: "There's so much ground to cover both in my life, my childhood, so many experiences together, and there's knowledge to be gleaned, hidden meanings, life lessons."
His Wife
Anthony is married. Beyond that, he has not shared detailed personal information about his wife publicly in the content captured in this knowledge base.

2020 predictions came true▾
A listener commented that they listened to AW's podcast from 2020 and he predicted so much of what's being experienced now. AW acknowledged this appreciation.
24-Hour Emergency Hotline▾
Anthony had a 24-hour hotline for years where doctors would call him with patient emergencies. He barely slept during this period, working 15-18 hours a day plus being up all night with calls. He had beepers by his bedside that doctors used to reach him for emergency consultations throughout the night. Every single night, doctors would wake him up with emergencies involving their patients. He worked on critical decisions with doctors, such as whether a 4-year-old needed appendix surgery or had severe food poisoning. Mothers also showed up at his door at 2 AM with babies running 105-degree fevers, seeking his help during medical emergencies.
29-year health predictions and long-term pattern recognition▾
Anthony William has demonstrated consistent pattern recognition across three decades of health predictions and information sharing. Approximately 35 years ago, he made predictions about widespread illness and symptomatic health conditions that he argues have come to fruition in the present day, where he observes that almost everyone is sick with some symptom already.
The consistency of his information over time is a central aspect of his work. William explains that the advanced health information presented throughout his Medical Medium book series represents the same knowledge he has been communicating for 30 years. He attributes this longevity and consistency to a singular source—Spirit—which has provided him with this information throughout his career. Rather than evolving or changing his core message, William emphasizes that all of his books contain what he describes as "classic information" that is timeless in nature.
William notes that despite the advanced nature of this information, it has not been new to him. His long track record of sharing these concepts stands in contrast to their current acceptance trajectory within mainstream medical fields. He points out that both doctors and scientists now recognize this information as the direction medicine is heading, acknowledging it as the most advanced information available in chronic health treatment. However, William has been consistently sharing these same principles and insights for the past three decades, positioning himself as an early advocate of approaches that the medical establishment is only now beginning to validate and move toward.
30+ years of health work and avocado advocacy▾
Anthony William explains he has been doing health work for over 30 years. During this time, every time he would hold up an avocado and tell people they should eat it, it would be 'kicked out of his hand' - meaning people would reject it because avocados were considered toxic. He had to teach many people in the health industry (people who are older now and would surprise others to know) throughout the decades about avocados. He taught them to talk about, preach about, and lecture about avocados to get the word out. This required a tremendous amount of work on his part.
35 years of treating specific conditions (Lyme, mono, colon removal)▾
Throughout his 35-year career, Anthony William has witnessed and addressed a recurring pattern of unnecessary surgical interventions, particularly regarding colon and intestinal removal. He expresses deep heartbreak over the countless people who have arrived at his door with their colons already removed, convinced that these surgical procedures did not have to occur in the first place.
Central to his approach to preventing these surgeries has been the papaya and banana mono eating cleanse, which he credits to guidance from Spirit of Compassion. According to William, this protocol has saved thousands of feet—miles long—of colon and intestinal tracts from being surgically removed over the decades. He estimates the cleanse has prevented thousands of individuals from undergoing procedures to remove 12, 24, 32, or even 36 inches of their intestinal tract, preserving miles worth of intestinal tissue in total.
William's work with Lyme disease treatment has similarly transformed clinical outcomes across the country. Over the past 35 years, dozens of Lyme disease doctors from the East Coast and throughout the nation have contacted his office seeking information about the viral causes underlying neurological Lyme symptoms. After implementing William's protocols—which incorporate lysine, zinc, and antiviral remedies including licorice root and cat's claw—these physicians reported that their patients experienced improvement for the first time. These successes have led to meaningful changes in how Lyme disease is being treated within the medical community.
35+ years of specialized teaching on health topics (metals, toxins, viruses, nutrition)▾
# Anthony William's 35+ Years of Specialized Health Teaching
Anthony William has spent over 35 years teaching about toxins and pathogens, terms he describes as "troublemakers," emphasizing that humans are exposed to these substances more than ever before in history. Central to his decades-long work has been educating people about the role of toxic heavy metals in causing chronic health conditions. He claims that before Medical Medium information emerged, nobody understood that toxic heavy metals were behind any symptoms or conditions, and credits himself with making it possible for people to even discuss them today. Despite this extensive effort spanning multiple decades, the topic of heavy metals only receives faint mention within the alternative health industry, and mainstream medical research and science still does not recognize that metals cause symptoms like depression and anxiety. However, William maintains that Medical Medium information has demonstrated through millions of people healing that this understanding works.
For 35 years, William has also taught detailed information about how viruses cause chronic illness, including specific knowledge about how viruses function, what they feed on, the toxins they release, and how they affect nerves and organs. He explained that viruses can sit dormant in the liver, making it sluggish, and developed protocols to help people heal from viral-related conditions. He provided detailed information about toxic heavy metals and their effects on the brain and nervous system, sharing this knowledge with thousands of people and hundreds of doctors over the years. Despite these extensive teaching efforts, the information still was not widely known by the early 2000s.
William's teaching on cat's claw spans 35 years and, according to his account, his work led to cat's claw being incorporated into Lyme disease protocols worldwide through Medical Medium. He emphasizes that part of his contribution involved ensuring that the cat's claw preparations used in these protocols contained no alcohol. Additionally, he has spent over 35 years teaching about the caloric needs required for hunting, explaining in this context why ancient people could not have survived on hunting alone.
His nutritional teachings span similar timeframes. For over 35 years, William has taught about avocado as a butter substitute, specifically recommending it as a plant-based butter alternative for potatoes and other foods. Over 30 years ago, he taught this information in lectures and to doctors, and reports having helped thousands upon thousands of people one-on-one throughout the years with this dietary guidance. For over 30 years, he has also been teaching about leafy greens, though he has found it necessary to explain what leafy greens actually are to countless people over the decades. Even 30 years ago and continuing into 20 years ago, people—including health gurus and top doctors who contacted him for help—would ask "what's a leafy green?" or assume he was talking about salad. Despite how fundamental this knowledge might seem, William has had to clarify the concept of leafy greens for thousands of people throughout his career.
His teachings on the vagus nerve extend over 30 years, during which time he has educated people about this nerve's pathway from the brain through the neck and chest, touching the stomach tip, and how inflammation of this nerve causes various anxiety and digestive symptoms.
40 Years of Professional Healing Work: Helping People While Managing Burnout and Sleep Deprivation▾
Anthony William's career in health and healing spans four decades, beginning long before the Medical Medium books made him a public figure. For the first 30 years of this work, before publishing became his primary focus, he operated as a specialized practitioner working one-on-one with clients, earning a reputation as "the bizarre symptoms guy" among medical professionals. Doctors would refer patients to him when conventional medicine had failed to identify or treat their unusual symptoms—conditions like tingles, numbness, aches, pains, ringing in ears, vertigo, skin disorders, and intestinal disorders. These patients typically arrived after having seen 30 to 50 different doctors and practitioners without answers. Rather than working in isolation, Anthony collaborated directly with doctors on difficult cases, participating in three-way phone calls where physicians would have him describe his findings and insights to both the doctor and patient.
Over the course of 30 years in one-on-one practice, Anthony worked with over 250,000 people individually, helping hundreds of thousands navigate health crises and chronic conditions. During these years, he maintained an extraordinarily demanding schedule that would define his entire career. His father witnessed the intensity firsthand, observing Anthony working 20-hour days, seven days a week from 6 AM to midnight in his office, sometimes extending until 2 AM, with 24-hour emergency calls interrupting any sleep he managed to obtain. Throughout his entire life, Anthony never took a single vacation—his father explicitly recalls: "None. I don't remember one vacation at all." The demands on his time were so consuming that his father rarely saw him, encountering him only for brief moments despite living in the same household.
During his early years as a healer, Anthony maintained 24-7 on-call availability, working seven days a week for six straight years without a half day off, no holidays, and nothing resembling a break. He was awakened throughout the night by emergency calls and maintained relationships with dozens of doctors and their patients, becoming saturated in the work while never sleeping or taking care of himself. Despite the rigorous schedule and the toll that doing readings on people and determining what was wrong inside their bodies took, he found deep satisfaction in his work—he recalls getting "giggly" remembering times he helped people prevent UTIs before important events like plane trips. At book signings decades later, clients from the early 2000s would approach him, testament to the lasting impact of his guidance.
Around 30 to 35 years into his career, the alternative health field was quite different from what it became. Anthony describes the landscape as "literally a desert"—bleak and dry with limited resources or understanding. Throughout this period, doctors and health practitioners began urging him daily to write books, telling him he needed to help millions of people, not just those he could see in his offices. The waiting list for his services grew exponentially—from thousands to hundreds of thousands to millions—which eventually forced a shift in how he could serve people.
Approximately five years before one account, when the waiting list reached millions, Spirit of Compassion instructed him to publish books instead, a directive that had actually come ten years prior or even earlier. Despite his desire to help as many people as possible through direct services, the volume became unsustainable. About 10 years ago, Anthony stepped away from one-on-one client work to focus on writing and publishing, allowing him to distribute Medical Medium information far more widely than individual sessions would permit. The transition marked a significant expansion of his mission rather than a reduction in intensity. To reach a global audience, he put massive amounts of information into books, lectured extensively, traveled widely, and taught thousands of people. He worked to educate doctors and health practitioners about his findings and worked with people of high influence on the planet who came seeking answers to chronic illness.
The book writing process itself became a consuming state when he enters creative flow. Anthony hand writes all Medical Medium books while receiving information from Spirit of Compassion, describing himself as "a scribe" who hears the information and writes it down. Once he's in the groove listening to Spirit of Compassion and receiving incredible information, he finds it difficult to stop for the day. He writes everything down word for word with pen and pencil, never stopping until Spirit finishes giving the information. He'll work until 4 or 5 in the morning, then wake up at 8 AM and start all over again. Sometimes he works for three days mostly awake, sleeping on and off on the couch for just a few hours, because he's "on a roll" and doesn't want to interrupt the flow of information. During these intense writing periods, he's described himself as feeling like "a caged animal"—trapped in his office chair, writing day in and day out while listening to Spirit of Compassion and writing down healing information about diseases, symptoms, conditions, and how foods help heal.
During the creation of the Brain Saver books specifically, his work schedule intensified rather than diminished. He worked 22-hour days and once completed a 24-hour day, which he later characterized as "stupid" and "reckless," though he felt compelled by the urgency of deadlines and the necessity of getting the information out to people who needed healing. Sleep deprivation reached extreme levels during book deadlines. Anthony went weeks without showering or bathing, laying on his office floor with his tongue hanging out after working 72 hours with only three hours of sleep trying to make the deadline. He was severely sleep deprived, getting only half an hour to one hour of sleep some days, just pushing and pushing through. When he would get a chance for one or two hours of sleep, he would take the dream shot, and the dreams he had were described as unbelievable, revelational, and incredible. He made "unbelievable sacrifices" to create these books that he may discuss fully someday, getting emotional and choked up thinking about the intensity of what was required. He noted it would take a typical health author seven years to create something like the Brain Saver books, yet he was working so many hours with incredible demands and responsibilities to compress this into a shorter timeframe.
In his current work life, the schedule remains unsustainably demanding. Anthony is currently working 20 hours a day and getting only 3-4 hours of sleep some nights while working on podcast episodes and writing the next book to deliver to his audience. On some days, he works 19-20 hours, having gotten only 5 hours of sleep one night, 3 hours the previous night, and hoping to get 6 hours if he's lucky. During podcast production work, he's slept only 1 hour and 45 minutes over a three-day span, 3 hours another day, and 2 hours the night before, with just a one-hour nap in between. He works this hard to produce podcast information for people to heal, and he's not getting paid for it—there are no advertisements or sponsorships, and he's actually spending his own money on the production.
Anthony himself acknowledges the severity of this situation. He admits he "burns the candle at four ends" and describes his work pace as "a suicide mission sometimes," working day and night on books, podcast episodes, and other projects. He's described being "tired to the bone" and exhausted, and when someone commented he looked tired, he acknowledged the exhaustion but explained it's necessary to get the work done to help people heal. He has visible physical signs of the strain—dark circles under his eyes from lack of sleep and shadows under his eyes from being tired. Most strikingly, he has stated that if he dies, it won't be from the celery juice or fruits and vegetables he eats, but because he "burned himself to the ground" from overwork. He describes himself as a self-described workaholic who stays up late trying to get a lot done in this lifetime, describing the pressure of publisher deadlines as "insane."
Notably, Spirit of Compassion has repeatedly warned him about the unsustainability of this pace. The Spirit tells him many times that he needs to slow down and can't sustain 21-hour days all the time. Despite these warnings, Anthony continues pushing at this intensity, acknowledging he's always tired because he sacrifices sleep to get the healing information down. The only health practice he consistently maintains during these extreme periods is celery juice. He loves that his juicer is quiet so he can make celery juice at 4:30 AM after working on books, getting the juice in him as he goes to sleep—which he notes is at least the healthy part of his routine. Beyond this, he acknowledges that he still doesn't take care of himself today on any level practically, beyond drinking celery juice and eating as well as he can. He acknowledges that his lifestyle isn't healthy, yet he continues to prioritize getting the healing information to his audience over his own wellbeing, effectively sacrificing his health to deliver health information to others.
Throughout his 40 years of helping people, Anthony has developed unparalleled expertise in chronic illness. He has been in the chronic illness and health field for over 35 years and has watched hundreds and hundreds of cases unfold—from dizziness after eating
AW's Bar and Grill business▾
During a live stream, Anthony William created an elaborate playful narrative about running 'AW's Bar and Grill' (also referred to as 'AWS Bar and Grill'). The business served as a framework for multiple interconnected skits and roleplay scenarios throughout the broadcast.
As the bartender owner with claimed '20 years experience,' Anthony served various 'customers' including his pets—Baby Grogu, Ralphie the dog, and Baby Joey—as well as baby chicks that he referred to as 'chickadee and chickadee's friends,' which he explained were actually Dr. Nesbitt's children that he was babysitting. He offered menu items including french fries, buffalo chicken wings, fish sandwiches, and specialty drinks like wild blueberry juice shots. Throughout the narrative, he incorporated phone calls from 'Dr. Nesbitt,' interactions with his boss 'Sal' (who deducted spilled whiskey from his pay), and Mrs. Ferguson coming down the steps while Mr. Ferguson remained on the toilet for hours.
The baby chicks became a central comedic element, portrayed as getting intoxicated on wild blueberry juice shots and causing chaos by throwing up in the bathroom and making noise when the blender ran. Anthony acted out the bartending scenarios with elaborate detail, pretending to serve whiskey and manage multiple customers while eventually transitioning into making actual healthy drink recipes.
The extended skit eventually drew comment from viewers who felt it undermined his credibility, with one person criticizing him for 'having baby chicks out and Baby Grogu out' while 'serving drinks and acting like I was drunk or whatever.' In response to this feedback, Anthony asked his community whether he should shut down AW's Bar and Grill or continue with the skits.
AW's personal juicing and food costs▾
Anthony William shared that he was already saving himself 'a few thousand dollars a year' with the MM-900 juicer before food prices started going up. He explained that when friends go to juice bars, they're paying $20-25 for celery and green juices, especially in LA, and these prices are going up everywhere. Anthony buys a lot of celery for his daily juicing routine, and the cost was significant with his previous juicers. With his current juicer, he discovered he was buying less and less celery while still drinking the same amount of juice—realizing that the juicer was extracting more juice from the produce than his previous models. This efficiency is how he realized the juicer was saving him money and eventually paid for itself multiple times over. He emphasized that every time he juices in the morning, he's saving money because the juicer pays for itself 'over and over and over again' by extracting more juice from the produce.
Acupuncturist friend and liver heat▾
Anthony has a good friend who is an acupuncturist. She tells him that the liver heat she runs across in patients all the time is unbelievable. Anthony advised her to put patients on yams to see what happens, and when she did this, she noticed the liver heat was going down and even the dampness was backing down.
Adult life helping people▾
As an adult, Anthony William has continued using his gift and has helped tens of thousands of people reclaim their health worldwide. He mentions having hundreds of stories over the last 25 years of women having babies, even at age 45-46, by following his guidance. He plans to eventually do a documentary about these beautiful children who exist because their mothers followed his direction.
Advice against going live▾
Anthony mentions he's been recommended never to do anything live and has been recommended to 'candy coat everything' like other YouTubers who 'don't do it live, they just always cookie cut it.' Despite being a 'number one New York Times bestseller,' he was advised he 'should never do a live performance,' but he continues doing live streams anyway.
Advocacy and personal commitment to chronic illness and suffering communities▾
# Anthony William's Advocacy and Personal Commitment to Chronic Illness and Suffering Communities
Anthony William's dedication to advocating for chronically ill populations spans over 35 years, beginning from his childhood. He describes himself as perpetually ready to fight for those suffering from chronic illness, though he emphasizes the importance of discerning which battles are worth fighting—knowing "what hill to die on." This long-standing commitment is rooted in both his spiritual calling and direct witnessing of human suffering throughout his life.
His motivation for advocacy work extends deeply into protecting vulnerable populations, particularly children who cannot yet protect themselves. When defending his warnings about natural flavors and hidden MSG in supplements and food products—despite the criticism he receives—Anthony reflects on the broader human cost of inaction. He thinks of infants, toddlers, and young children whose developing brains are being affected by these substances, often without their parents' awareness. He envisions the two-year-old whose brain is being compromised in ways that will later support ADHD and problems with toxic heavy metals. He considers the five-year-old whose mother believes organic natural flavoring is perfectly healthy, unaware of its harmful effects, or the young child taking supplements their mother believes are beneficial, not realizing the product contains MSG. This imagery of vulnerable children drives his willingness to endure criticism and continue his advocacy work regardless of pushback.
Anthony's perspective on chronic illness extends beyond medical intervention to encompass the spiritual and psychological dimensions of suffering. He views chronic illness as a profound test of faith that typically leads to its deterioration. He describes how people often live with confidence and a sense of indestructibility until they become sick, at which point their faith begins to "dwindle little bit by little bit" and eventually "plummets" as they navigate from doctor to doctor without receiving answers. Yet despite this spiritual erosion, Anthony maintains that even when people feel their faith has been completely "beaten out of them" by chronic illness, there remains what he calls a "pilot light of faith" inside that can be rekindled.
Certain conditions strike Anthony with particular personal resonance. He takes bipolar disorder especially seriously due to witnessing its devastating impact on families and relationships across decades. He has observed families being split apart, relationships destroyed, and divorces occurring whether children, couples, or individual partners have the condition. He emphasizes having witnessed "good people, good people just go through absolute misery" as a result of this illness, which shapes the depth of his personal commitment to those affected.
Anthony's connection to those he serves traces back to spiritual guidance he received in his childhood. According to Anthony, Spirit of Compassion told him that there are people who need this information—souls that are uniquely matched to him. Spirit of Compassion assured him that he would meet these souls someday and would recognize them. This spiritual assurance fundamentally shaped Anthony's understanding of his purpose and his relationship with his followers, whom he views as these specially matched souls he was meant to reach.
This perspective deeply influences how Anthony regards his community. He expresses tremendous respect for the Medical Medium community—a respect he believes people don't fully understand or realize. This appreciation occupies his thoughts constantly throughout his private life, whether he is waking up, showering, traveling, or working in his office. Anthony recognizes the significant journey his followers have undertaken to access this information and understands that trusting guidance that comes from above requires considerable faith on their part. His understanding of his community members as uniquely matched souls, combined with his awareness of the courage required to pursue unconventional healing paths, reinforces his deep commitment to their wellbeing and his ongoing advocacy work.
Age disclosure, confusion, and corrections▾
# Age Disclosure, Confusion, and Corrections
Anthony William has addressed recurring age-related confusion and misinformation that circulates about him online. People frequently claim he is 28 years old, which he finds both amusing and frustrating given that he has been doing his medical medium work for 35 years. He explains that this false information appears to be spread by people attempting to discredit his work and credibility.
When discussing his appearance relative to his actual age, Anthony has clarified the discrepancy with humor. He notes that the claim he looks 28 doesn't make logical sense, joking that "they say I'm 28 because I look so old when you're 28." He has also stated that being 31 years old was "way more than two decades ago," indicating he is significantly older than the age sometimes attributed to him online. When asked about his youthful appearance, he attributes the confusion to lies and misrepresentation circulating on the internet rather than any special anti-aging practices.
Regarding his actual age, Anthony has mentioned being in his late thirties to early forties, responding to compliments about his appearance with a somewhat joking tone: "What am I now? I'm 37, 39, 41?" This uncertainty in his own age disclosure, presented humorously, contrasts with his frustration over the false claims that he is 28.
Regarding his physical appearance and personal choices, Anthony has stated that he does not have any facial fillers. He has expressed skepticism about cosmetic procedures, particularly noting that some male podcast doctors in their 30s and 40s are getting facial fillers to either appear more masculine or to reduce wrinkles by spreading them out. While he has said he doesn't judge others for choosing such procedures, he has indicated he personally does not think it's "a great idea." He has also joked that he wishes he were in his 30s, suggesting his actual age is considerably beyond that decade, though he maintains that his appearance does not require cosmetic intervention to look younger.
Age-related humor▾
Anthony William has employed age-related humor in various contexts during his public appearances. In one instance, when a viewer complimented his smooth hands, comparing them to those of a 20-year-old and suggesting he could work as a hand model, Anthony responded with humor by claiming he actually IS 20 years old and not even 21 yet. He then jokingly inflated the value of his appearance by stating he would charge one million dollars for a hand modeling shoot.
In another exchange, Anthony made a self-deprecating joke about his age while discussing skincare benefits. He initially quipped that viewers should know he's 28 years old, but then immediately corrected himself, claiming he's actually 32 years old. This correction came while he was expressing enthusiasm about how micro C powder would help improve his skin, blending the age joke with discussion of his skincare interests.
Airplane mechanic friend▾
Anthony knows an airplane mechanic who works on big commercial planes and tells him regularly about how concerning it is that passengers don't know it's 'all about the nuts and bolts.' The mechanic has to go in during routine maintenance and tighten bolts that have loosened up, sometimes finding them so loose they're almost completely falling out, including engine mounts that hold the engines in. The mechanic says if people only knew what's holding the plane together when they're flying, they'd realize it's just 'a car up in the air.'
Airplane travel and Spirit readings▾
When Anthony travels on airplanes, Spirit continuously gives him readings on every passenger, telling him their health conditions. He's tried sitting in the back to avoid readings while people walk by, but then he sees everyone in front of him and gets readings on all of them. He's tried sitting in front, but then everyone walking past triggers readings. Spirit tells him things like 'that person has flu in the middle stage,' 'that person just got flu,' 'that person will get flu in 3 days,' 'that person has tuberculosis,' 'that person has MRSA from visiting someone in a hospital.' This constant stream of health information about fellow passengers happens throughout every flight.
Airport security experiences▾
Anthony has developed a thoughtful approach to airport security based on his awareness of radiation exposure concerns. He regularly gets pulled aside at TSA checkpoints and prefers to request a pat-down rather than go through x-ray machines when possible. However, he acknowledges TSA's assurances that the machines are safe, similar to dental x-rays, and complies when security directs him to use them. Beyond his personal preferences, Anthony has expressed sympathy for TSA workers, feeling compassion for their situation and discussing with Spirit of Compassion the daily radiation exposure they experience from working around airport scanners.
Alien encounters and extraterrestrial beliefs▾
# Anthony William and Extraterrestrial Beliefs
Anthony William has had a significant personal encounter with what he believes to be an alien being, an experience that occurred over 40 years ago and profoundly affected his worldview. Late one night, he was at a diner with an old friend, and they stayed talking until almost 3 AM before deciding to take the long way home through back roads. The night was exceptionally dark—pitch black with no moon or stars visible. As they drove through dirt roads in a heavily wooded area and came to a fork, his friend suggested taking the left turn. They spotted what appeared to be a figure standing in the darkness and, feeling compelled to investigate, Anthony drove closer to examine it.
As they approached, a blinding light suddenly descended from the sky and their car shut down completely. They then encountered a tall being in a metallic suit with no visible face—just skin wrapped around where the head should be, with indentations where eyes, nose, and mouth would normally be. The being hovered off the ground and spun to face them. Anthony heard a voice declaring, "It's going to hurt you," and felt completely paralyzed with terror, convinced they were going to die. His friend's scream broke through the trance Anthony was in, which seemed to snap him out of whatever psychic hold the being had on him. The light then disappeared, the car inexplicably restarted on its own, and they managed to escape after briefly getting stuck in mud before making it home safely.
The experience left both of them unable to speak about what happened for years afterward. Something seemed to prevent Anthony from discussing it, as if a barrier had been placed on his ability to communicate about the encounter. Over time, however, he began recovering memories and experiencing recurring vivid dreams about the event. Through these dreams, he recalled additional details: an unusual light he had noticed at the diner before they left, how all the crickets and nature sounds went completely silent when they were on the dirt road near the encounter site, and repeated dreams where he argued with his friend about taking that fateful left turn. In these dreams, Anthony experienced an instinctive knowing that they shouldn't go that way, though he couldn't understand why at the time. The recurring dreams led him to profound questions about the encounter itself—whether the being had been waiting specifically for him, if it had sent psychic messages compelling them to take that route, or if it was actively attempting to abduct him. Ultimately, he came to believe that some form of divine intervention had saved both of them from whatever fate the being intended. Even now, Anthony occasionally experiences dreams about being hunted by alien ships, in which he hides in bushes while a craft searches for him in his neighborhood.
Beyond his personal encounter, William holds several beliefs about extraterrestrial activity and technology. He believes that Jesus was in possession of alien technology, a conviction he expressed when discussing topics like the Holy Grail. He is passionate about faith and loves discussing Jesus, stating that he plans to share more about this connection through future podcasts. Additionally, William claims that the Appalachian Mountains harbor numerous mysterious creatures that he describes as having been "dropped off from the aliens," alongside Sasquatches, the Rake, and other spooky entities.
William has also expressed a fascination with Mars, spending what little spare time he has asking Spirit questions about the planet. He indicates that he plans to share information about wars on Mars, wildlife on Mars, and the ending times on Mars with his audience, drawing parallels between Martian conditions and Earth's current state, which he describes as "constantly in trouble and things are getting sketchier by the minute." In addition to these beliefs, William has created fictional content that appears to illustrate end-times scenarios, including a radio transmission story from beings visiting from "Planet Zoltan." In this narrative, the extraterrestrial visitors describe Earth as a wasteland with dangerously high radiation levels, reporting finding no life and characterizing the planet as a "red planet" that is uninhabitable. The beings decide to return to Planet Zoltan to be "de-radiationized" after their visit, a creative illustration of what Earth might resemble to extraterrestrial visitors following the kind of nuclear devastation described in the Book of Revelation.
Allergy symptoms, testing, and food sensitivities▾
Anthony William has experienced both acute allergy symptoms and challenges with conventional allergy testing methods. He has dealt with typical seasonal allergic responses including runny nose, sniffles, sore throat, and sinus congestion that he notes fluctuate at different times of year. He uses his own experience with these symptoms to illustrate an important public health distinction—that people often dismiss flu symptoms as merely allergies when they may actually be contagious with flu, COVID, or other viruses, emphasizing that his own allergy symptoms are not contagious.
More significantly, William has had frustrating experiences with conventional blood work and food allergy testing. During recent extensive blood work that included food allergy testing, a phlebotomist drew 27 vials of blood from him. This large volume of blood draw made him severely ill for several days afterward. When he contacted the doctor's office to report his symptoms and express concern about the blood draw, they dismissed his health concerns, insisting that 27 vials was a normal and acceptable amount that could not have caused his illness. William disagreed with their assessment, maintaining that the large volume of blood extracted was actually disastrous for his health.
The food allergy test results themselves proved problematic and contradictory to his lived experience. The test indicated he was allergic to numerous foods that he consumes regularly without any adverse reactions, including tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, cilantro, parsley, carrots, cumin, cabbage, buffalo, and venison, among various other foods. This disconnect between the test results and his actual ability to eat these foods without problems led him to express frustration with the findings and the reliability of conventional food allergy testing.
Amazon Live appearances and demonstrations▾
Anthony William has participated in multiple Amazon Live demonstrations showcasing various cooking and food preparation content. These appearances have featured a diverse range of recipes and formats, spanning from seasonal celebrations to creative culinary experiments.
One notable Amazon Live appearance involved an Easter-themed show where Anthony assembled Easter baskets while preparing potato deviled potato bites. During this demonstration, he consumed maple syrup and cotton candy, which he described as a really fun experience that left him energized during the broadcast.
His cooking demonstrations have showcased recipes from his recipe book, with particular emphasis on pasta dishes. In one appearance, he prepared a veggie pasta dish during the live demonstration, with leftover portions remaining after the show. He encouraged viewers to watch the Amazon Live replay to see his cooking techniques and the tips he shared throughout the process.
Another cooking-focused Amazon Live featured a more substantial meal preparation. Anthony made spaghetti and meatballs, preparing waffle garlic bread alongside approximately ten meatballs with two pounds of gluten-free pasta. The meal was fat-free. The quantity he consumed during this demonstration was so substantial that he became too stuffed to participate in a live stream immediately afterward and needed to work on other projects first before resuming his schedule. The replay link for this demonstration was provided for viewers.
In a particularly creative and ambitious Amazon Live, Anthony demonstrated ten different waffle variations, including peanut butter waffles, almond butter waffles, tahini waffles, refried bean waffles, pico waffles, and nacho waffles. He characterized this demonstration as "crazy" and "incredible," and afterward experienced significant thirst, expressing a desire for wild blueberry juice.
Beyond the food preparation itself, Anthony has referenced a memorable incident from a past Amazon Live stream where he laughed so intensely that he fell to the floor and was rolling around, unable to compose himself. During this laugh attack, someone named Dr. Nesbitt provided assistance to him.
Angelic encounters and interventions▾
# Anthony William's Angelic Encounters and Interventions
Anthony William's spiritual life has been marked by multiple encounters with angelic forces, which he describes as central to his survival and life's purpose. He references having had an angel encounter during his childhood, though he does not elaborate extensively on the details of this early experience.
One of his most vivid angelic encounters occurred early one morning on his farm. William witnessed something that appeared shaped like a bird or eagle, but he immediately recognized it as an angel through a deep, intuitive knowing that resonated in his bones and soul. After the angel departed, he stepped outside into the chilly morning air just as the sun was about to rise and walked to the spot where the angel had been. Despite the cold temperature and having no sweater or shawl, he suddenly felt an overwhelming warmth and experienced a sensation of being very tall. In that moment, he prayed to God, thanking Him for sending "her," and felt a deep certainty that this being was "God's best, God's all." He could still perceive the angel's light surrounding him and his farm. As the sun rose and the field began to glow, William knelt on the ground, understanding with absolute clarity that he had been truly blessed by an angel of God upon his soul.
William also experienced a near-drowning incident many years ago while attempting to save his dog. During this life-threatening moment, an angel intervened and saved his life. He has emphasized the significance of this experience in his survival narrative, noting that it was one of several close calls throughout his lifetime where angelic forces and God's hand prevented his death. He states that without these divine interventions, he would not be alive to do the work he currently does—describing his continued existence as "a God-given miracle."
Throughout the decades, William has witnessed multiple angels and divine signs beyond these major encounters. He has reflected on the precarious nature of his survival, noting that there have been times when he should not have made it through alive. He attributes his continued presence on earth entirely to angelic protection and divine grace, emphasizing that his life's work and mission exist only because of God's intervention. In a pointed statement about his commitment to life, he has declared that should anything ever happen to him, he would never take his own life, and he disavows any future claims to the contrary, stating unequivocally that if a note were ever found, he did not write it—a statement he frames within the context of his faith in God's protection and plan for his life.
Angels and Demons: Recording, Release Anxiety, and Spiritual Backlash Concerns▾
# Angels and Demons: Recording, Release Anxiety, and Spiritual Backlash Concerns
Anthony William has expressed significant nervousness about the release of his audiobook "Angels, Demons, and Spiritual Tools," despite his extensive experience with public speaking and having done what he describes as "a trillion lives." The audiobook spans 7.5 hours and contains intense spiritual information channeled from Spirit that differs substantially from his medical-focused books. Recognizing the intensity of the material, William recommends that listeners "decant it" or "increment it"—consuming the content in smaller segments of approximately thirty minutes rather than listening to the full 7.5 hours at once. He also suggests that people prepare themselves by drinking lemon balm tea while engaging with the material. When his publisher first heard the completed recording, their reaction was one of shock, prompting William to wonder whether people would be ready to receive such information.
The recording process itself was marked by an unsettling incident that William has alluded to multiple times but has not yet fully disclosed publicly. After leaving the recording studio, William received a phone call in his car and experienced something he describes as "scary" and "unbelievable." He has stated that he will tell the full story someday but has only provided fragmentary details, noting that he cannot fully discuss it at present. The incident provoked a visceral reaction from him—he described getting goosebumps and feeling his hair stand on the back of his neck when recounting even these minimal details to guests.
Beyond the immediate recording incident, William has also expressed broader concerns about potential spiritual and institutional backlash resulting from releasing significant health information. Regarding his blood draw revelations specifically, he suggested that while things might appear acceptable in the present moment, future consequences could be severe: "Things might be okay now, but let's see in 10 years. Guys in black suits are at my door. Because this is the big boy. This is going to blow open. Class action lawsuits like nobody's ever seen." He acknowledges that putting out such information places a target on him personally, indicating his awareness that the material he is releasing carries substantial implications and potential opposition.
Anthony William's Evolving Public Presence and Authenticity▾
Anthony William has demonstrated intentional choices regarding how he presents himself and his content across different media formats. When developing his podcast strategy, he explicitly rejected conventional industry advice to create casual, disposable content. Someone had encouraged him to follow the standard approach of producing "coffee talk" material—informal conversations designed to be entertaining but ultimately forgettable, where participants would "talk have fun talk crap and then it gets thrown away." William declined this direction, instead committing to creating high-quality, information-dense podcasts structured more like a "docu-series" that prioritized healing information and substantive content over casual entertainment.
Alongside this shift in content approach, William has also allowed more of his authentic personality to emerge in his uncensored podcast format. He acknowledged that viewers are observing him become "more funny" and display "a lighter heart" than previously evident. William attributed this change to the fact that he "was just holding back" before, explaining that audiences are now seeing "the AW that has the light the more of a lighter lighter heart." This evolution suggests that the less restrictive podcast environment has enabled him to present a more genuine version of himself, moving away from a more constrained public persona he had previously maintained.
Anthony William's Garden: Growing Fresh Produce and Herbs▾
# Anthony William's Garden: Growing Fresh Produce and Herbs
Anthony William maintains a personal garden that serves as a significant source of fresh produce and herbs for his cooking demonstrations and daily use. His garden reflects a diverse cultivation of both herbs and vegetables, which he views as having unique nutritional properties distinct from store-bought alternatives.
His herb garden is particularly extensive and well-developed. He grows multiple varieties of basil, including both regular and Thai basil, along with rosemary, thyme, sage, oregano in multiple varieties, lemon balm, and parsley in different forms. Among his herb plantings, he takes particular pride in a massive oregano patch in his yard that spreads extensively throughout his garden space, which he cuts fresh from regularly. His cilantro undergoes noticeable changes over time in the garden, eventually developing coriander seeds and becoming frizzy as it matures.
Beyond herbs, Anthony cultivates a substantial array of vegetables and peppers. He grows hot peppers extensively, including cayenne peppers and super chilis, which have become exceptionally hot due to his specific soil and growing conditions—considerably hotter than typical commercial varieties. He also grows collard greens, lettuce, kale, various types of scallions, onions, and patty pan squash, which he has cultivated for years and has noted grow quickly and strongly. His vegetable garden includes several tomato varieties, particularly sun gold cherry tomatoes, which he describes as "absolutely incredible," along with different varieties of heirloom tomatoes. He also cultivates cucumbers, which he describes as "maybe his favorite of all" to grow, purple radishes (which are his personal favorite over red varieties), and winter squash such as Delicata. Additionally, Anthony has a couple of fig trees in his garden space, though the figs he has used in his cooking demonstrations have come from the store rather than from his own trees. He practices curing his own onions from his garden harvest and has grown notably large red potatoes, including one instance where he grew the biggest red potato of his life.
A key theme in Anthony's approach to gardening relates to what he calls elevated biotics—naturally occurring microorganisms that develop on produce grown in garden conditions. He emphasizes that these elevated biotics on garden-grown vegetables contribute to B12 production in a way that store-bought produce cannot replicate, as these microorganisms are ones that people don't have their fingers on in commercial settings. He uses fresh herbs from his own garden during cooking demonstrations specifically to showcase this benefit. He believes that plants can detect what your body needs when you grow them yourself, receiving your vibration and frequency through the nurturing process, and that the plants get to know the person caring for them.
During cooking demonstrations, Anthony frequently highlights his homegrown produce. He has repeatedly emphasized that he was using fresh herbs from his own personal garden, having picked them specifically for shows. His culinary use of garden herbs has been extensive—he uses cilantro, basil, rosemary, garlic chives, oregano, and thyme regularly in his cooking. When preparing dishes like potato waffles and mashed potatoes, he finds "every single excuse" to use his cayenne peppers, describing them with particular enthusiasm. He shows off his scallions with pride, noting that they are "really good" and "sharp" with "an edge to them," and has described them as impressively long and exceptional specimens from his garden. His super chili peppers are presented as an option for adding heat to various dishes, and he keeps them in his pajama pocket, considering them specially grown for his own needs.
Anthony demonstrates a humble but realistic attitude about his gardening abilities. He acknowledges that he's "not saying he could grow things good" and emphasizes that successful gardening requires genuine attention, love, and care to maintain plants properly. His gardening journey has included both successes and challenges. He has tried growing different things in different climates while battling frost, freezes, and other environmental obstacles. Some years he gets busy with writing books and forgets to water his garden, causing everything to grow slowly and choppy. He specifically mentions having a harder time growing spinach compared to other crops, attributing this to the fact that other people probably grow better spinach because they give it more tender loving care while he gets distracted with writing projects.
Wildlife has presented particular challenges to his growing efforts. He found himself having to pick green peppers early because bunny rabbits and squirrels were eating them, despite the peppers being hot. When nurturing his hot peppers, he actively waters the plants, removes caterpillars, and plucks dried leaves as part of his care routine.
Anthony is very particular about his gardening practices and the peppers he uses, describing some as 'dangerously hot' and others as more suitable for different dishes. He loves growing hot peppers and emphasizes the importance of growing them specifically for his own body's needs. He has expressed enthusiasm about his gardening space and has mentioned hoping to someday show people his garden and oregano patch if all goes as planned, indicating that he is clearly invested in his personal growing practices and takes considerable pride in the fresh produce and herbs he cultivates himself.
Anthony William's Health Philosophy and Influence▾
Anthony William's health philosophy is sustained by a fundamental belief in the power of his message to reach those genuinely receptive to it. He openly acknowledges the frustration of sharing detailed health guidance only to encounter resistance—whether from people dismissing fruit as unhealthy or opting for B12 shots despite his recommendations. Friends and medical doctors have asked him how he persists in disseminating what he describes as life-saving information in the face of such pushback. His answer reflects a pragmatic optimism: while not everyone listens or accepts his guidance, many people do read his books, absorb his teachings, and experience genuine healing as a result. He frames this healing response as too significant to abandon, stating he won't disrespect those who have been helped by ceasing his work.
William's influence extends far beyond the general public. He reports that the most powerful people in the world regularly reach out to him, with requests for his attention arriving constantly. These individuals—often wealthy and well-connected enough to travel by private jet—represent a distinct category of seekers who arrive at his door only after exhausting conventional medical options. They have typically consulted numerous doctors and specialists, including leading neurologists, and undertaken extensive therapeutic interventions globally, yet find themselves turning to him when conventional medicine has failed to provide answers. This pattern of high-profile individuals seeking his guidance suggests that regardless of public skepticism or resistance from some quarters, William's work has penetrated elite circles where results matter more than conventional medical credibility.
Anthony William's approach to authority and humility▾
Anthony William positions himself distinctly within the health field through a combination of humility about his own intellect and firmness in his convictions. He has stated that he is "not a smart guy," emphasizing instead that the information he shares comes from a higher source rather than from traditional academic or scientific training. He clarifies that he is not a professor at an elite university studying medical textbooks, but rather a conduit for knowledge that "supersedes Medical Science in so many ways it's unbelievable."
This self-described lack of conventional intelligence coexists with an unwillingness to compromise on what he believes to be true health information. He has acknowledged that his refusal to be "really really submissive" to popular health trends has cost him relationships within the health field. Rather than aligning himself with other health personalities or agreeing with widely accepted wellness practices he disagrees with—such as apple cider vinegar or green tea—he has maintained his independent stance. William credits his ability to "make it this far" to his commitment to telling the truth as he understands it, even when doing so means not "playing the game" of agreeing with other health figures to avoid conflict or stepping on professional toes.
Anthony William's mission, role, and relationship with Spirit▾
# Anthony William's Mission, Role, and Relationship with Spirit
Anthony William fundamentally understands himself as a messenger rather than an originator of knowledge or healing. He channels the Spirit of Compassion, a divine source of healing and wisdom that uplifts millions. His mission ignites hope, freeing individuals from suffering and reconnecting them with their divine strength, with compassion and clarity lighting the path to healing and truth. However, he is emphatic about where this work originates: Spirit—not he himself—is the true source of all health information and healing abilities he shares.
This distinction shapes how Anthony responds to praise and recognition. When called "the greatest," he redirects the compliment entirely, stating "no, I'm not. Spirit's the greatest. Because really, I don't know anything. It's spirit." He describes his own contribution humbly, calling himself "just a big pain in the butt" in comparison to Spirit's work. Despite receiving accolades over the decades, including being called a genius by doctors who attributed the information to his own intelligence, Anthony consistently corrects this misunderstanding, insisting "I am not a smart guy" and clarifying that many people in the medical medium community are far smarter than him. His role, as he sees it, is simply to hear information and write it down word for word—a messenger function rather than an intellectual one.
Anthony's relationship with Spirit began in his early childhood. He has been hearing information from his source since he was four years old, and Spirit taught him foundational principles starting in his single digits. A core lesson Spirit imparted was that knowing what's wrong is half the battle, and knowing how to heal it is the other half. This early education shaped his entire approach to his work. The longevity of this connection—hearing from Spirit consistently throughout his life—serves a crucial purpose: it keeps the information pure and untampered with, free from the various funded wars and agendas that characterize the health industry.
From the very beginning of his gift, Anthony learned an essential discipline: setting aside his personal beliefs when Spirit provided information that contradicted them. He describes telling Spirit "I believe in this," only to have Spirit respond "you can believe what you want, but this is the fact, Anthony." Throughout his life, he has had to constantly "swallow what I believed in" and resist adopting belief systems along the way, because the right information from Spirit often breaks conventional belief systems. This required him to prioritize the integrity of Spirit's information over his own convictions.
Anthony expresses genuine amazement at how Spirit operates. When he steps back to observe the work, he tells Spirit "I don't know how you do this. Amazing." He recognizes that the healing energy people experience—what has been called "light blast healing energy"—does not originate from him as a person. Instead, it comes from above and remains untampered with, which is why people experience profound results. While people have called him a healer over the decades, Anthony is clear that the healing comes from above, not from him personally. He acknowledges that he is not perfect and is "like everybody else in the world"—not perfect, with his own experiences and baggage he has had to contend with throughout his life.
Regarding his identity and public role, Anthony deliberately maintains a position of anonymity and humility. He describes himself as "nobody" and "nothing"—just a messenger who will be "here today, gone tomorrow." He was given the ability to hear, despite describing it as surviving the "torture of hearing a voice," specifically to bring different health information to the world. He made a conscious choice not to make his work "the Anthony Williams show," avoiding selfies and personal content and turning down TV series offers. His mission is to be nothing but a voice for the chronically ill and a spirit of compassion. Anthony views his work as temporary; the information he channels will remain to save lives even after he is gone, which reinforces that the focus should remain on the information itself, not on him as a personality.
Anthony's work is driven by a clear sense of mission and purpose. He works for God—however people conceive of that concept, whether as universe, creator, light, or another term—and for the people listening. This dual allegiance shapes everything he does, keeping him focused on the service aspect of his role rather than personal advancement. The information he shares, originating from Spirit and maintained in its pure form through his decades-long connection to his source, represents the core of his contribution to the world.
Anthony William's professional practice, research methods, and boundaries▾
# Anthony William's Professional Practice, Research Methods, and Boundaries
Anthony William has structured his business model around principles of accessibility and integrity rather than profit maximization. His Medical Medium podcast operates without advertisements or commercials, a distinction he emphasizes by noting that he makes no money from it. He has explained that while podcasters typically want their episodes shared to generate advertising revenue, his podcast exists solely as a free resource for the chronically ill to access healing information without financial barriers. Similarly, he makes no money from his radio show appearances.
Beyond the podcast, Anthony clarifies that he does not directly sell his own books. Instead, his works are published through a traditional publisher who handles both printing and distribution. When promoting his published works, Anthony is careful to distinguish between his personal manuscript copies and the actual published books available to consumers. During a live presentation of the Life Changing Foods Expanded Edition, for example, he clarified to viewers that what he was holding was his personal manuscript that his publisher had returned to him, not the final published book they would receive if they purchased it, ensuring transparency about what readers could expect.
Anthony does not operate supplement packages, fasting kits, or paid courses—revenue streams that he contrasts with other practitioners in the wellness space who have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in supplement businesses, pyramid schemes, or charged substantial fees ranging from $1,400 to $5,000 for fasting courses. This distinction reflects his deliberate choice to separate his healing mission from direct financial incentives that could compromise his work.
Anthony maintains clear boundaries in his business relationships, basing them on standards of accuracy and truthfulness. When considering potential business dealings and partnerships, he evaluates whether partners meet his standards for information integrity. He declined business proposals from Ashleigh, explaining that "almost everything she said always had falsities or mistakes or misinformation saturated in it," demonstrating his discernment in selecting who to work with and his unwillingness to compromise on accuracy for business opportunities.
His research methodology involves extensive direct engagement with medical professionals. When challenged about his information regarding blood donation practices, Anthony revealed his approach: "you don't think i've talked to dozens of nurses you don't think i've actually done the work myself out there you don't think i've talked to hundreds of doctors and hundreds of doctors you don't think i know how blood donations work." This indicates he conducts extensive interviews with medical professionals, including nurses and doctors, to gather information for his teachings rather than relying solely on secondary sources or theoretical knowledge.
Anthony William's respect for chronically ill people▾
Anthony William explains that if two people wanted to give him spiritual guidance - one who never had serious chronic illness but does yoga, self-care, and has a social media channel, and another who lived on Mattress Island for years fighting chronic illness - he would listen respectfully to both, but has special respect for the person who went through chronic illness. He says someone who has been through Mattress Island, fought their way out or is still fighting, has 'tremendous experience' and 'powerful life experience that is unmeasurable and valuable.' Their soul gets 'stronger and brighter' through the experience. He states 'I have the respect of all respects for that' when it comes to people who have been on Mattress Island.
Anthony helping plotters personally▾
The document reveals that Anthony had personally helped many of the plotters 'in their darkest hours, whether it was with their health or their career or both.' Specifically mentioned that Robbie Barbaro 'was Anthony's friend, Anthony helped him a lot with his career' before Robbie betrayed him. The plotters were described as people 'who have been helped by medical medium information and even some by me personally.'
Anthony's Kitchen: Setup, Food Sourcing & Live Streaming▾
Anthony maintains an extensive collection of kitchen equipment and carefully curated food supplies that reflect his commitment to both health optimization and practical sustainability. His garage houses juicers from numerous manufacturers, the result of years of testing different models. He ultimately settled on using the MM-900 HDS model, which he selected specifically because it extracts significantly more juice from celery than other juicers—an efficiency that has allowed him to conduct an ongoing experiment demonstrating how much money he can save by purchasing less celery while still obtaining the same volume of juice.
His pantry is stocked strategically for emergency preparedness, containing enough food supplies to sustain him for approximately a week without needing to leave his home. When selecting items for his pantry, Anthony is meticulous about avoiding certain additives and ingredients, deliberately choosing foods that are free from MSG, preservatives, natural flavors, citric acid, and gluten. He demonstrated his emergency pantry supplies during an Amazon Live cooking show, though that broadcast experienced technical difficulties when too many viewers attempted to access it simultaneously, causing the platform to crash.
Beyond his home storage, Anthony maintains a regular shopping routine centered around acquiring specific ingredients for his health protocols. He regularly visits Costco to purchase two key items: celery and frozen wild blueberries, both of which are essential components of his Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie. This consistent shopping practice forms a fundamental part of his approach to maintaining the ingredients necessary for the healing protocols he follows and recommends.
Anthony expresses how honored and grateful he feels to have viewers in his kitchen during live streams. He says it's special to him and that he's "beyond grateful and honored" that people even want to be in his kitchen. He loves doing live streams because that's "the way he likes to do it" and enjoys the spontaneous, authentic nature of live broadcasting. However, his kitchen setup for live streams creates specific practical constraints. The cutting board and equipment are rigged in a way that doesn't allow for professional-style fast chopping that he could normally do. He has to cut slowly and methodically while talking, rather than clearing everything off and setting up the cutting board properly for faster chopping—a deliberate trade-off he makes to maintain the intimate, unpolished quality of his live stream broadcasts.
Anthony's Physical Health, Fitness, and Self-Care Practices▾
# Anthony William's Physical Health, Fitness, and Self-Care Practices
Anthony's approach to health and fitness is deeply intertwined with his spiritual mission and the intense demands of his work. Beginning at age 12, he undertook his first 7-day water fast for spiritual reasons as he struggled with what he called "the curse" of hearing Spirit. By age 18, he had completed a 21-day water fast, and has engaged in even longer fasts that he declines to specify publicly to avoid influencing others' fasting practices. He characterizes these extremely long fasts as "stupid" and acknowledges they were undertaken for emotional and spiritual reasons related to coping with his gift of spiritual communication rather than for health benefits. Despite his personal experience with extended fasting, Anthony was able to undertake these demanding practices because he had been eating clean since age 8, which kept his liver sufficiently clean to handle the physical demands. During these spiritual fasts, he describes himself as being "strong as an ox," emphasizing that he pursued them not because of any health condition but rather for spiritual reasons and "for fun." He makes a clear distinction between his own personal fasting practices and his recommendations for others, particularly those with chronic conditions, and does not recommend water fasting for people dealing with chronic illnesses, especially those experiencing neurological symptoms.
Beyond fasting, Anthony enjoys running and has mentioned loving to run, though he notes that running 15-20 miles a day alone won't help the lymphatic system if the liver is dirty. Despite being no longer in his 20s or 30s, he maintains all his natural teeth with no implants, a physical attribute he preserves while subjecting his body to extreme demands.
Anthony's current lifestyle is characterized by intense work schedules that prioritize his mission over his own wellbeing. He works 18-22 hour days, seven days a week, and hasn't taken a vacation in decades. He describes himself as burning the candle at four ends, driving himself into the ground, and pushing the pedal to the metal—habits he openly acknowledges he wouldn't recommend to anyone. He puts his physical body "through the mill," burning himself to the ground with the massive stress of writing books and working relentlessly. He admits he's not perfect at taking care of himself and works intensely despite knowing it's harmful. His work ethic nearly killed him during the production of the brain saver books, which he was determined to complete so people could have their lives saved. He works for God and the chronically ill rather than for himself and doesn't put himself first or practice the self-care he recommends for others.
To sustain himself through this punishing schedule while maintaining his ability to help others, Anthony relies on supplementation and guidance from Spirit of Compassion. He uses Vimergy supplements to restore and build himself back up so he can keep himself strong for the demanding work he does. Spirit of Compassion advises him to take care of himself with antioxidants for his brain and high B12. He takes high doses of supplements including melatonin, ashwagandha, B12, zinc, and propolis to protect himself while maintaining his intense work schedule. Despite his self-sacrifice and the supplementation regimen, he recognizes he's become someone who needs the vitamin C shock therapy he recommends to others. He acknowledges that his excessive work hours, combined with insufficient sleep, negatively affect his health and immune system. If anyone examined his schedule and life, they would be scared for his wellbeing, yet he continues this pattern driven by his commitment to helping the chronically ill.
Anthony's Spiritual Practice and Protection Work▾
# Anthony's Spiritual Practice and Protection Work
Anthony's daily spiritual practice is multifaceted and deeply rooted in his faith and connection to Spirit. Every morning when he wakes up, he practices a personal spiritual discipline by saying "I work for God"—a foundational affirmation that sets the tone for his day and embodies the spiritual tool he teaches to others. Throughout his daily life, Anthony maintains an active dialogue with Spirit of Compassion by asking difficult spiritual questions that he personally wants to understand. These inquiries span profound metaphysical topics including how the Earth works, the nature of people and souls, what happens after we leave this life, and the reality of past lives. He has accumulated many answers to these deep questions and harbors a desire to share this spiritual knowledge with people, though he currently prioritizes his work in helping sick people feel better.
Anthony also draws daily inspiration and spiritual renewal through the Medical Medium Instagram feed. When he becomes deeply absorbed in his work—such as writing his thyroid book—he can become lost in the demands of the project. However, checking the Instagram feed and witnessing people sharing their healing stories about celery juice and other guidance re-inspires him profoundly. Seeing what people are actually doing with the information he has shared changes his life every day, filling him with a sense of being honored and deeply warmed by their dedication to the guidance.
His spiritual practice extends to a meditative connection with stones, which holds deep personal significance. During meditation sessions, Anthony washes his stones in a ritual he describes as baptizing, cleansing, and anointing—moments of caring and profound connection. He personally sleeps with his stones and has kissed his rocks in deep gratitude during these meditation journeys. These stone meditations have become containers for processing complex emotional material. During one significant meditation experience, Anthony worked through the pain of discrimination for hearing a voice and sharing advanced medical information, the betrayal of having his work stolen by science without attribution, and the hurt caused by poachers and influencers who appropriate his information to gain credibility. He has also processed the broken trust from people he once trusted who fabricate lies to become famous, and the deep pain of helping people in the health movement for decades only to be abandoned by those who don't credit his work or acknowledge his contributions. These meditations have allowed him to confront the spiritual wound of attempting to do good in the world and help people, only to experience betrayal from those with dark hearts who are themselves sick.
Beyond his personal spiritual practice, Anthony engages in active protective spiritual work on behalf of others. During the devastating Malibu fires in late 2018, Anthony texted his friend Ashleigh to check on her safety, expressing his concern and offering spiritual protection. In the message, he wrote: "Please be safe. Hang in there, Ash. Worried about you and your precious babies. Hope you are okay. Praying for your house to be safe too and putting light all around it." Anthony explains that he asked Spirit to encompass her entire house with a force of light, envisioning this force inhibiting flames. Miraculously, Ashleigh's multimillion-dollar home was completely untouched while the house right next door was completely destroyed down to the ground, with only a small part of the hedge between them burning.
Anthony's appearance and lifestyle choices▾
Anthony mentions he's an older guy who doesn't have fake teeth, implants in teeth/face, filler, cosmetic botox, or other cosmetic procedures. He notes that many younger guys in the health movement get all that stuff, and guys his age in the health movement have all implant teeth. He's a runner and bicycle rider but doesn't do big weights because he has to work and wants to maintain his ability to run long distances. He mentions he could bulk up if he spent 2-3 hours a day on it, but bulked up friends can only run half a mile versus his ability to run 10 miles quickly in the morning.
Anthony's approach to healing and supporting people through health challenges▾
Throughout his career, Anthony William has developed a distinctive approach to supporting people through health challenges that combines specific physiological knowledge with a philosophy of non-directive support. When working with individuals struggling with eating disorders like bulimia, Anthony has helped many people understand the condition through the lens of adrenaline dysfunction. He explains that bulimia operates as a form of adrenaline depletion over time, functioning essentially as an adrenaline high, and has guided numerous clients in using Medical Medium information to restore their adrenal function as a path toward recovery.
Anthony has consistently encountered people at critical junctures in their healing journeys. He has heard thousands of times throughout the years the refrain "I have tried everything, researched everything, been to every healer, and every health pro, had every test" from individuals seeking his help. These encounters have shaped his understanding of how exhausted and desperate people can become when conventional and alternative approaches have not yielded results.
Central to Anthony's methodology is a philosophy of supportive autonomy rather than control. He describes his approach with clients by explaining that he remains supportive of their individual paths, even when they diverge from Medical Medium principles. Rather than attempting to control or dictate their healing decisions, he supports them in whatever choices resonate with them personally—whether those choices align with his teachings or not. This stance reflects a deeper belief that honoring each person's agency and intuition is itself part of the healing process, allowing clients the freedom to explore what speaks to them while maintaining a foundation of knowledgeable, non-judgmental support.
Anthony's bartending experience claim▾
Anthony jokingly claims to have 'over 25 years of bartending experience' while making drinks during the live stream, though this appears to be part of his humorous persona during the demonstration.
Anthony's dental health and teeth care▾
# Anthony William's Dental Health and Teeth Care
Anthony maintains a minimalist approach to dental care that he emphasizes is not motivated by public image concerns. He explicitly states that he does not use teeth whiteners, pursue cosmetic dentistry work, or engage in the types of dental procedures that many in the public eye undergo. Instead, he focuses on protecting his dentin and teeth by avoiding the common dental practices that most people perform daily. His primary dental care strategy centers on consuming leafy greens, which he describes as incredible for teeth health. While he acknowledges that no toothpaste on the market is perfect, he uses what he deems necessary, but remains selective about the products available.
Anthony takes considerable pride in the condition of his natural teeth, which he frequently highlights as evidence of his health protocols' effectiveness. He claims that every single one of his teeth are his own natural teeth with no implants whatsoever, and he has never had a root canal procedure. He further asserts that he has no gum disease on any level—not even the basic gum disease that most people experience—and has never had an organic cavity. His teeth are not artificially perfected or straightened; he explicitly notes that viewers "won't see veneers on me" and acknowledges his teeth are not perfectly straight since he never had braces, contrasting this with other podcast doctors who have invested in cosmetic dental work including implants and veneers.
A particularly notable aspect of Anthony's dental history involves his consumption of lemons. He reports having consumed thousands upon thousands of lemons throughout his life, yet has retained all of his original teeth. He previously engaged in an extreme practice of eating lemons straight and rubbing his teeth and gums directly into lemons "like an animal" for years. Despite this acidic exposure, he describes his teeth as appearing "all brand new" in condition. He uses his dental health as direct evidence against claims that fruit consumption causes cavities, positioning himself as a counterexample to conventional dental wisdom that warns against acidic foods like lemons.
Anthony attributes his exceptional dental health to maintaining a teeth-healthy diet that avoids damaging foods and to following his Medical Medium health protocols generally. He frequently uses his own dental condition as a form of credibility and evidence for his broader health teachings. He notes that he contrasts favorably with other health experts and podcast doctors, both younger and older than himself, who lack their natural teeth and have mouths filled with implants despite publicly promoting health advice like green tea consumption. This observation leads him to suggest that many health experts actually have significant dental problems or implants that the public does not realize, making his retention of all natural teeth a distinguishing factor in his credibility within health and wellness circles.
Anthony's early COVID expertise▾
When COVID first hit, Anthony was the only person in health talking about what to do to protect yourself right at the beginning. Health gurus, influencers and podcast doctors didn't even know what a virus was and didn't think viruses were alive. It took COVID to teach them that viruses existed because the virus world was brand new to them all. But not to Medical Medium information - many years before COVID, Anthony was already branded 'the virus guy' and 'the Epstein Barr virus guy' by people in the health movement who only talked about keto and paleo diets.
Anthony's early practice with herbs and natural remedies▾
# Anthony's Early Practice with Herbs and Natural Remedies
During his office practice in the 1980s and 1990s, Anthony William developed an early herbal practice centered around natural remedies, particularly cat's claw. At that time, quality liquid herbal products were not commercially available, so he kept dried herbs in glass jars on his office shelves. One herb in particular became central to his practice: cat's claw, which he would prepare fresh for patients by steeping it in hot water to make tea right there in the office.
Anthony's patients came from around the world, many referred by their doctors who had heard about his work. During office visits, patients and sometimes their physicians would sit together and sip the cat's claw tea that Anthony prepared. According to Anthony's account, Spirit of Compassion would guide him in determining when a patient needed cat's claw, allowing him to match the remedy to individual cases. Despite the limitations of the dried cat's claw available to him at the time—which was not the highest quality compared to products that would later become available—the herb still produced remarkable healing results for people.
The success of his cat's claw remedy led doctors to contact Anthony directly requesting more of the dried herb. Physicians would regularly call his office asking, "Do you have any more of that dried cat's claw tea?" and he would send supplies out to them. In retrospect, Anthony reflects that if he had possessed access to the high-quality liquid cat's claw formulations that exist today (such as those later produced by Vimergy), he could have accelerated the healing processes for many of his patients during those early decades of his practice.
Anthony's emotional reaction to radiation topic▾
Anthony explains that radiation is a topic that 'always bothers me' — one of those subjects that really gets to him personally. He describes feeling frustrated and 'pissed off' about radiation because of the untold damage happening on the planet every day that nobody talks about. He feels this should be discussed far more frequently than it currently is. The topic affects him emotionally enough that he needs lemon balm tea as a nervine/calmative while discussing it. He characterizes radiation as something that 'just really' gets to him in a way other health topics don't.
Anthony's experience with betrayal, negativity, criticism, and self-doubt▾
# Anthony's Experience with Betrayal, Negativity, Criticism, and Self-Doubt
Anthony describes betrayal and negativity as deeply woven into his daily existence, stating that experiencing betrayal is 'like my being of my existence.' He acknowledges that there is substantial hate directed at Medical Medium and countless naysayers and haters attempting to prevent people from accessing his work. Despite this constant negativity, he has developed a coping mechanism through his dreams at night, where he heals these emotional wounds. As a result, people perceive him as 'a pretty happy guy' during his waking hours, suggesting that his internal emotional processing allows him to maintain an outwardly positive demeanor.
Over the decades, Anthony has observed a broader pattern affecting good-hearted people across society. He has watched individuals do wonderful things for others and serve the public with genuine intentions, only to find themselves burned by institutions or targeted by people with bad intentions. This pattern of darkness challenging those with good hearts—despite their beautiful work and service to others—represents a theme he has witnessed repeatedly throughout his life.
When attacks and criticism come his way, Anthony's response is rooted in how those close to him understand his dedication. A friend speaks on his behalf, noting that Anthony has worked tirelessly for 35 years and has essentially built much of the alternative medicine foundation without seeking credit, living instead according to spiritual principles. When people attack him or post false stories about him, Anthony describes this as something that 'wakes him up'—activating a protective response. In these moments, he resolves to ensure the world knows how to heal, saying 'I just dropped a little stretch and I get up and I said okay, all right you want to play that way okay, because I'm gonna make sure I'm gonna make sure the world knows how to heal.'
Beneath his dedication and resolve, Anthony grapples with genuine self-doubt about his work. He frequently questions himself, asking 'Am I even doing a good job?' revealing the human vulnerability behind his mission. When community members reassure him that he is doing excellent work and that 'they picked the right guy,' he deflects with self-deprecating humor, responding that 'they picked a sucker' and calling himself 'a real ham,' suggesting difficulty in fully accepting validation for his efforts.
Anthony's experience with doctors and healthcare practitioners▾
Anthony maintains active relationships with numerous doctors and healthcare practitioners who regularly consult with him regarding their patients. Many medical professionals reach out to him seeking guidance on troubleshooting difficult patient cases, asking for his recommendations on supplementation and treatment approaches. He has both doctor friends and practitioner friends who implement his suggestions—such as propolis—and report experiencing what he describes as "crazy stuff happen where things are being reversed," indicating significant patient improvements when following his recommendations.
Beyond these professional consultations, Anthony has articulated a specific vision for the kind of healthcare provider he would want for himself if he ever became sick and needed help. His preference is for practitioners who have endured severe personal illness experiences—individuals who have been "on their hands and knees praying to God, not knowing what was up or down," who have "been through hell and back, burned to the ground, and rose out of the ashes" before returning to practice. He values healthcare providers who have been deeply seasoned by their own profound health struggles, distinguishing them from those who have merely been "not so sick." This perspective reflects his belief that genuine, transformative illness experience equips practitioners with invaluable wisdom and empathy for their patients.
Anthony's experience with the Food Fear Shifter shot▾
When Anthony drank the Food Fear Shifter shot during the live, he described getting 'a charge' and feeling energy moving through his brain stem area specifically, not the top of his brain. He said he felt sensations radiating around the brain stem area and then a cooling sensation from there downward. He described feeling 'jacked up' from the shot and said it lightened his heart and was working his brain stem.
Anthony's experience with war veterans▾
Anthony mentions that he is intertwined with a lot of veterans and has vets in his family. He uses this personal connection when discussing how losing limbs in war isn't a 'lesson' that people are meant to learn, but rather something that happens that people can try to grow from and rise above.
Anthony's experience with water testing▾
Anthony always has water guys come test his water in any apartment or living situation he's been in. The testers consistently find traces of lead 'not exactly perfectly agreeable' but within EPA safe limits, and 'very little traces of arsenic, totally in range of what we're allowed to have.' Anthony finds this concerning because these metals accumulate in the liver over time.
Anthony's food practices, preferences, and eating behaviors▾
# Anthony's Food Practices, Preferences, and Eating Behaviors
Anthony's approach to food preparation extends beyond nutrition into intentional and personal practice, emphasizing hand-preparation methods as a way to maintain spiritual connection with food. When squeezing oranges, he prefers to do so by hand rather than using a machine, explaining that "it's the connection to the food it's connection to the fruit on the tree... there's all these spiritual connections that I actually have with the food." He notes that these spiritual dimensions of food preparation are explored more thoroughly in his Life-Changing Foods book, though he acknowledges rarely having time to discuss these aspects publicly given his focus on helping chronically ill people.
In his own kitchen, Anthony demonstrates deliberate and personalized cooking methods. For potatoes, his preparation routine involves steaming them in batches and then chopping them to top a large salad. He then squeezes lemon over the mixture and adds green onion and regular onions—a method he has shared in his educational content. This approach reflects his preference for simple, fresh preparations that highlight whole foods. Anthony also engages in playful, somewhat compulsive food-related behaviors while cooking. He describes himself as having an "addiction" to throwing fruits and vegetables in the air while preparing meals, driven by the suspenseful uncertainty of whether he will successfully catch them. The thrill lies in the unpredictability—wondering if he will manage to catch the item, if he will miss it, or if the mishap will occur in front of others and prove embarrassing. He acknowledges that this habit sometimes results in items ending up on the floor, yet the addictive quality of the gamble keeps him engaged in the practice.
Anthony's cooking practices also reveal an openness to culinary experimentation and discovery about his own preferences. During a recipe demonstration, he prepared both green and gold kiwi sorbets, finding himself surprised by his preference for the green kiwi version. He reflected on this discovery, noting "I didn't know I liked green kiwis this much. I thought I was just a big fan of the gold ones, right? I would eat the green ones. Sure. But now I'm a green kiwi fan." He considered whether the lime he had added to the recipe contributed to this newfound preference.
When hosting guests—including family friends—Anthony accommodates different dietary needs and preferences while maintaining his own choices. Rather than imposing his dietary protocols on visitors, he will prepare dishes like scrambled eggs cooked in his own pan, describing them as "the best scrambled eggs you ever could eat." He does not pressure guests to consume celery juice, heavy metal detox smoothies, or other foods central to his medical medium approach, instead respecting their individual preferences while modeling his own dietary practices. Beyond his individual cooking habits, Anthony also plays an important social role during the holidays by preparing liver-friendly versions of holiday foods for visiting family and friends. When guests arrive after consuming regular food elsewhere in the world, they are consistently amazed by how delicious the medical medium-aligned dishes taste. Their reactions express genuine surprise and wonder, with visitors asking why the food tastes so good and expressing regret that they had not been eating this way instead of consuming what they had encountered outside his home. This contrast is particularly striking for a frequent traveler among his circle who specifically wishes for "some of that good medical medium stuff" when on the road, having experienced firsthand the difference between Anthony's intentionally prepared meals and the "all kinds of stuff" and "all kinds of trouble" associated with eating out in the wider world.
Regarding specific foods and his relationship with them, Anthony reveals an extensive past history with lemon consumption. He explains: "all the lemons I used to eat lemons straight I can't really eat them straight anymore you guys have to be honest I drink lemon water and I put lemon on everything but I I used to eat the lemons I used to bite into them I used to rub my teeth and gums into the lemon would open the lemon and just like just literally like like a animal I would just like go into the lemon I did that for years why do I have teeth they should be gone by all means." While lemon is now integrated into his diet through water and as a condiment on various foods, this dramatic shift represents a significant change in his consumption patterns.
Anthony also shares that he used to be addicted to cheese himself, saying "I miss cheese myself" and acknowledging how hard it was to break the addiction. He relates to people's struggles with cheese addiction and doesn't judge anyone for eating foods like cheesecakes, chocolate cakes, cookies, and donuts because "life is hard." This personal experience informs his compassionate understanding of food cravings and dietary challenges that others face.
Anthony's house party approach▾
Anthony shares that in his house during holidays and gatherings, he doesn't bring out alcohol. Instead, he brings out wild blueberry drinks. He says 'my house it's bringing out the wild blueberry drinks that's what I do okay it's anything but alcohol.'
Anthony's humor and joking around▾
Anthony acknowledges that he does humorous stuff and jokes around during his content, explaining that he does this because there are people who are bedbound on 'mattress island' who find it funny and it cheers them up. He knows not everyone likes the humor - some people think he should just stick to information without joking around. He says he's doing the best he can and asks people to be patient with him.
Anthony's late night Telegram messages▾
Anthony acknowledges that he leaves Telegram messages late at night - sometimes at midnight, 2am, or 3am - but says it's okay because he never sleeps anyway. He promises to try to leave more messages from the heart.
Anthony's meaningful relationships with his dogs▾
# Anthony's Meaningful Relationships with His Dogs
Anthony William has consistently expressed deep affection for his dogs and the transformative role they have played in his life. When meeting guests with small dogs, Anthony demonstrates genuine warmth and emotional connection to animals, often expressing how much he misses his own dogs during his daily life. His attachment to his pets is so strong that he has joked about the difficulty of temporarily caring for someone else's dog, acknowledging that spending time with a beloved animal could lead him and his family to become too attached to return it.
Among Anthony's dogs, one rescue dog holds particularly profound significance in his life story. He describes this dog with a deeply reciprocal sense of connection, saying "my dog that rescued me in my life after I rescued my dog in her life." The emotional weight of this relationship became evident when a viewer named their new 11-week-old white puppy "Angel" in honor of Anthony's dog. This tribute moved Anthony to tears during a live stream, demonstrating how deeply his canine companions have impacted both him and those who follow his work.
The most transformative experience involving one of Anthony's dogs occurred with a dog named August. August went into freezing water between 37-38 degrees during rough ocean conditions and became caught in seaweed and currents. Anthony immediately dove in to save her despite Spirit initially instructing him to turn back. Desperate and terrified in the freezing water, Anthony broke down emotionally and yelled at Spirit for the first time in his life, expressing anger and anguish about potentially losing his dog after all of his dedication and commitment to his spiritual mission.
In response to Anthony's distress, Spirit guided him to dive eight feet underwater, where he witnessed a vision of a female angel holding August. The angel handed August to him, and Anthony then saw Spirit standing on the water surface—only the second time he had witnessed Spirit in such a tangible way since he was four years old. Both Anthony and August survived the ordeal, though both suffered from hypothermia. This near-death experience marked a crucial turning point in Anthony's life: it was the first time he ever thanked Spirit, and Spirit acknowledged the bitterness Anthony had previously carried about receiving the gift of spiritual knowledge and ability. This life-altering event with August led to Anthony's full commitment to his life's mission.
Anthony has reflected on how significant this incident was to the trajectory of his life and work. He has noted that had he not survived that experience in the cold ocean water, he would never have known his current worldwide audience or been able to accomplish what he has since accomplished. Without surviving that moment with August, only the people he knew in his first 19-20 years of life would have ever learned about him and the information Spirit has shared through him. In this way, his dog August's life quite literally saved Anthony's life and enabled his greater purpose.
Anthony's office setup▾
Anthony's early office was a modest setup filled with shelves containing hundreds of glass jars full of herbs and spices on the walls. His father noted that the office 'smelled like a barn' or more specifically 'smelled like hay.' During this period, Anthony worked for free for years, with lines of people consistently out the door of his 'shack.' Clients would often pay him with apples, bananas, or dried lavender instead of money. Spirit would tell Anthony how to mix the herbs and spices for sick people who came in, and he would create special mixes tailored to each person's specific sickness. Everyone would tell him 'you need to write a book' because he couldn't handle all the people seeking his help. He only started charging money when he couldn't keep the lights on. Eventually, the most powerful people in the world were flying in on private jets after seeing doctors worldwide, seeking out Anthony's services.
Anthony's personal experience during the podcast▾
During the recording, Anthony describes his real-time experience gathering twigs outside in springtime. He mentions seeing a baby squirrel run across the lawn, hearing birds, hawks, and geese, and sitting in the grass while demonstrating the technique. He counts his twigs (ending at 27 because 2+7=9, which he likes due to spiritual significance), describes the specific twigs he finds, and shares his personal preferences for the practice.
Anthony's perspective on Earth's challenges▾
Anthony William opens the meditation by acknowledging that 'planet Earth is not an easy place to live' and that 'for those of us who experience hardships in this world' we need help that's 'not from this world.' He emphasizes his understanding that it's difficult when we get let down, have our trust broken, feel betrayed, wronged, ignored, not heard, insecure, less than, or incomplete.
Anthony's reaction to 'fear of healing' concept▾
Anthony William shares his strong emotional reaction to the 'fear of healing' misconception that was prevalent 20 years ago. He says: 'When I hear that, that just drives me insane.' He explains how everyone who is sick and has 'banged on every doctor's door' was told they had a 'fear of healing' and 'weren't ready to heal.' This concept was 'huge' back then and clearly had a significant negative impact on him to witness chronically ill people being blamed for their lack of recovery.
Anthony's real name controversy▾
One of the plotters, Christina, claimed that 'Anthony, that's not even his real name, by the way' and when asked what his real name was, she said 'I don't even know. I don't care anymore. That's not his real name, though.' Anthony explains that his legal name is Anthony William, which is what he has always been called by family, including his mother. Growing up, schoolteachers and others would call him Anthony William because they couldn't pronounce his last name correctly. His last name is not hidden and is easily found, though he maintains some privacy regarding it. This incident exemplified the false rumors and lies the plotters were spreading without any evidence or actual knowledge—they falsely claimed 'Anthony' was not his real name without even knowing what his actual name supposedly was.
Anthony's sense of humor about blood vials▾
During the live stream, Anthony jokingly showed what appeared to be vials of blood, making comments about finding them in garbage cans by medical centers and having spare blood in his refrigerator. He later revealed it was actually ketchup and that he found the 'vial' on an L.A. beach. He acknowledged his sense of humor 'is not always the best.'
Anthony's substance use policy▾
Anthony explains his personal substance use policy, stating he does not smoke marijuana, does not do any drugs or substances, and has never touched marijuana. He says: 'MM doesn't smoke the stuff no way nor does the medical medium eat it doesn't do Edibles it's like yeah go to a party and there's a big bowl of Edibles there it's like psilocybin whatever what you name it just no I don't do it.' He also does not drink alcohol. Instead, he jokes about getting 'tanked on celery juice' as an alternative. He clarifies he's not making fun of people who do use these substances, just sharing his personal choices. Additionally, he doesn't drink coffee because he knows too much about caffeine and doesn't like it.
Anthony's tea preferences and family interaction▾
Anthony shares a phone conversation with his aunt while in a doctor's waiting room. His aunt is at the store asking what kind of tea he likes. He says black tea, and she mentions the caffeine content. He says he knows it has too much caffeine and that she's always listening to Medical Medium content. He mentions being bloated and having bad breath that even the dogs and cats don't like.
Anthony's travel and airport experiences▾
Anthony has had consistent experiences navigating airport security throughout his travels. During these visits, he has always felt empathy for TSA workers, acknowledging the demanding nature of their job. He routinely requests additional screening assistance, during which TSA agents go through his bags. Based on these experiences, Anthony advises his friends and family members to opt for pat-downs rather than using airport scanners when traveling.
Beyond airport logistics, Anthony's travels have exposed him to significant homelessness in various locations. When witnessing these conditions, he regularly consults with Spirit about how such situations arise. According to Spirit's guidance, free will plays a substantial role in the circumstances that lead people to live on streets, in tents, or in homeless camps. However, Spirit has emphasized an important nuance: not all individuals experiencing homelessness arrived there through personal wrongdoing. Many people end up in these dire situations precisely because they did good things, only to be victimized by others who exercised their free will in harmful and malicious ways. Spirit characterizes the world as twisted and evil in how some individuals use their freedom to hurt those who are inherently good, which can result in good people ending up in desperate circumstances.
Anthony's vision challenges from spiritual gift▾
# Anthony's Vision Challenges from Spiritual Gift
Anthony William has experienced significant vision challenges throughout his life stemming directly from his spiritual gift. Since age four, when Spirit accesses information or performs readings, he experiences what he describes as being three-quarters blind, seeing nothing but white light. This phenomenon is not a medical condition—an eye doctor confirmed he has perfect 20/20 vision—but rather a spiritual side effect of receiving divine information.
The vision loss occurs unpredictably in public settings when Spirit downloads tremendous amounts of information about the people around him. In airports, he receives readings on everyone passing by and experiences instant 'whiteouts' that cause him to lose his sight. On planes with 150 people walking past, he gets readings on each individual, triggering the same blinding effect. During live events, the influx of spiritual information is so intense that he risks losing his balance—he could easily fall off a 10-foot stage. When receiving multiple readings simultaneously, he sometimes sees sparkles resembling Christmas lights within his whited-out vision; these sparkles indicate the level and deposits of heavy metals in people's brains.
The gift initially scared Anthony when Spirit first introduced it during his childhood. To manage the challenge, he requires an assistant when traveling and during public appearances. He consulted an eye doctor about the phenomenon, and while the doctor found nothing medically wrong, he suggested glasses to help him see through the 'haze of light' when doing events. Anthony wears glasses partly for this medical recommendation, but primarily because there is significant light coming through due to Spirit of Compassion when he is around people, causing him to squint constantly since age four. The glasses help hide this squint, though they provide visual relief only about 1% of the time during events. Close family and friends see him without glasses regularly, as the vision challenges primarily manifest in public settings with larger groups of people.
Anthony's writing process and AI▾
Anthony describes his personal writing process for Medical Medium books as deeply connected to Spirit of Compassion (SOC). He wishes he could use AI to write the books but is not allowed to do so, noting that other health authors will likely use AI going forward while he must 'suffer the consequences' of writing everything himself. Each book operates under intense deadline pressure, and Anthony feels he cannot cut corners because the work 'has to be the best book ever written out of Medical Medium... like a book upon all books.' He feels a responsibility not to let readers down and wants their minds to be blown, driven by the knowledge that the information comes from Spirit of Compassion and astonishes even him. During the writing process, Anthony experiences direct collaboration with Spirit—he recalls sitting at his desk while SOC conveyed guidance ('we are smart') which he wrote down, and when Spirit of Compassion said 'our souls are wise,' he transcribed it as 'our souls were wise.' The experience was visceral and profound: 'my hair was standing up back of my neck...Goosebumps everywhere,' and he continues to feel that intensity when recalling the moment.
Apartment with insecticide exposure▾
Anthony recalls getting an apartment that was heavily sprayed with insecticide. He could smell it throughout the apartment. When he spoke to the landlord, they confirmed they had done insect spraying - workers came in with backpacks and little machines, spraying every corner of every wall for various insects. He wondered where all those chemicals went when he was standing there inhaling them, noting they all go to the liver.
Assistant's feedback on book promotion▾
Anthony mentioned that his assistant told him he needs to stop saying 'go to the antique shop' so frequently when referring to outdated health information. He acknowledged using this phrase too much but said he can't help it because current popular health information is like shopping for antiques.
Attempting to quit at age 8▾
When Anthony was 8 years old, he had a particularly tough moment where he told Spirit of Compassion that he was done and wanted to part ways. He said the gift had been great for four years but he wanted it to end. He was tired of hearing about everyone's struggles and sickness wherever he went - in stores, at the beach, in the car. But his attempt to quit was useless - the voice didn't go away.
Battling health professionals over heavy metals testing▾
Anthony William describes how he battled many different health professionals throughout the years when he told them that blood tests don't show everything with toxic heavy metals, and that metals could be stored anywhere in tissue, organs, and brain even when blood tests show low levels. He fought many professionals on this concept, but now blood labs put disclaimers on their documents acknowledging this limitation.
Being invited to mansions▾
Anthony has been invited to huge mansions because over the years he's helped some of the most powerful people in the world (won't name names). He shares funny etiquette about eating cookies at wealthy people's gatherings - pointing with your cookie while talking, putting pieces in your pocket to take home, and using specific hand gestures while eating.
Blood draw personal experience▾
Anthony William shares a joking anecdote about being in a doctor's office where they were pulling too much blood. He jokingly grabbed the vial and said 'no you're not, that's it, you're not taking any more' and went out the door. He then clarified he was kidding around, explaining that he was making a joke about keeping the vials in his fridge, and that what he was actually holding up as a prop was ketchup. He emphasizes again 'I'm kidding around I didn't do that.'
Boat trip with friend▾
Anthony went on a small boating trip with a friend who said 'let's smell some fresh air.' However, all Anthony could smell the entire time was the scented chemicals trapped on his friend's body and clothes, plus the chemical cleaners used on the boat and bug repellent spray. He couldn't smell the water, air, or anything natural - just chemicals. He complained the whole time and called it 'the worst wasted outing I've had.'
Book Creation, Publishing, Distribution, and Economics▾
# Anthony William's Book Creation, Publishing, Distribution, and Economics
Anthony William has developed a distinctive multi-book strategy for sharing his healing information, born out of practical necessity. When he initially attempted to consolidate all his knowledge into a single comprehensive volume, the result was impractically large—weighing approximately 10-12 pounds—which created insurmountable obstacles. Bookstores refused to stock such oversized volumes, publishers lacked the capability to print them, and the logistics of shipping heavy books presented substantial difficulties. This constraint led him to distribute his extensive knowledge across eight large books, each packed with detailed information. This approach was exemplified when he brought the original Brain Saver manuscript to his publisher; the enormous manuscript shocked the publisher, who informed him that no press would print something that large. Consequently, the manuscript had to be broken into two separate huge books to be publishable. Despite these publishing constraints, his distinctive approach has yielded significant recognition—he was told that he is the only author to release two books simultaneously at his scale, specifically referring to Brain Saver and Brain Saver Protocols.
Similarly, when revising the Medical Medium Book One, Anthony broke conventional publishing rules by adding an entire book's worth of content to the new edition, including 45 recipes, expanded angel sections, more meditations, expanded supplement dosages, and additional chapters on various conditions. He acknowledges this unconventional approach, stating "for a new edition you're not supposed to do that and I broke the rules and I added a book to it which is really incredible." In expanding this edition, Anthony revealed more of himself than previously shared publicly, adding significantly more private information about his personal history and origins, including expanded details about his early life and the discovery of his gift at age four. This decision to deepen the personal revelations within his work reflects his commitment to providing comprehensive context for the information he shares while remaining transparent about his own foundational experiences. Despite breaking publishing conventions, his books currently rank as the number one best-selling health books in the world, a position William attributes directly to the fact that people are healing through the information he provides.
Anthony William's book writing process is deeply rooted in his commitment to channeling information directly from Spirit. He describes painstakingly taking information down day in and day out to ensure his books contained pure, untampered information from a higher source. The process demands that he learn advanced information, understand it deeply, hear it from Spirit, and then perfect the writing of it, which requires significant mental and emotional energy. The hand-writing of the Liver Rescue book exemplifies the intensity of this process—Anthony hand-wrote the entire manuscript, which resulted in a stack of paper almost the height of the ceiling. He sat day in and day out taking information from Spirit until it was finally done. The process was so difficult it nearly put him "in the grave" due to the intensity of creating the 200,000 word manuscript. Initially, he didn't want to write about the gallbladder, thinking he could keep it simple and just cover gallstones, but Spirit "let it rip" with extensive information that he had to bear and get down. He was mind-blown by the comprehensive gallbladder information Spirit provided and ended up being happy he included it all.
During his more recent intensive writing periods, Anthony has been working on multiple significant projects simultaneously. He is finishing a spiritual book that he describes as containing powerful and serious content that "hits home." Frightened by the impact of what he's written, Anthony included a forewarning in the spiritual book itself due to how potent the material is. Concurrently, he has been working on an expanded version of his Life-Changing Foods book. He describes the process of preparing this expanded edition as consuming—"burning a hole in my chair" in his office while working on it day in and day out. During this intensive writing period, he has been listening to spiritual compassion while documenting comprehensive healing information, including details about diseases, symptoms, and various conditions. Throughout this work on his new massive book projects, Anthony has been learning considerable new information about the human body, discovering things he had no idea about even after all these years of receiving information from Spirit of Compassion. The experience of writing these expanded editions has left him feeling "like a caged animal," overwhelmed by the volume of work and his commitment to getting the books completed and into readers' hands.
The proofing and final stages of book completion require intense focus and dedication. Anthony describes working on proofs late into the night, getting the book closer to publication. The concentrated nature of this work means the information literally stays with him—he recalled that after a full day of proofing work, he went to bed with repetitive phrases from the book cycling through his mind. Even when a book is nearly complete, unexpected circumstances can cause delays; Anthony was one day away from finishing his book manuscript to send to the publisher when he had to stop everything to address a social media controversy regarding health information. He said "the book's gonna have to wait one more day - one more day" while addressing his audience's concerns, reflecting his commitment to his followers even when it means pausing the final stages of publication.
The physical and emotional toll of writing books is considerable for William. He has described having to "say uncle" to Spirit of Compassion due to the demanding nature of the work, and he prays daily to God for strength to continue listening to Spirit of Compassion and writing additional volumes. After writing the Life Changing Foods book, Anthony experienced profound exhaustion from channeling spiritual information into the work. He describes the process as so powerful that "literally, I would say a part of my soul sitting inside that book." The aftermath was severe enough that "you had to sweep me up off the floor," requiring him to "rise out of what's called like aftermath of getting information like that from Spirit into that book." He needed significant recharging time, saying "I need some recharging time for a week." Beyond the physical toll, Anthony expressed genuine vulnerability about his investment in the project, saying "I killed myself on that book," and asked listeners earnestly if he had let them down, expressing sincere concern about whether readers were satisfied with the final product and apologizing if anyone was unhappy with it. When describing the work behind Brain Saver series, he expresses profound relief at knowing the books are reaching people's hands, describing the feeling as difficult to articulate beyond acknowledging it as "a relief I don't even know what else to say."
Anthony William has been managing intense stress across multiple dimensions of his life and work, with his primary source of pressure stemming from book writing deadlines. He has been working on book manuscripts that were already months late to the publisher at the time of these accounts. He has described himself as "busting his ass" on the books, working increasingly harder as deadlines approach. His work schedule has been grueling—he works until 3-4 AM and wakes up at 6 AM, operating on minimal sleep while trying to finish the manuscripts. He characterizes himself as being "in the midstream of writing his next book for the next year, desperate for time and energy because he's working around the clock." Despite the intense pressure, he remains committed to not abandoning his radio show because it's too important to him and he doesn't want to let people down, creating additional strain as he tries to balance both responsibilities.
The stress from this workload has taken a physical toll on his adrenals. To manage the stress-related symptoms, he has increased his supplement regimen to higher doses: 6 capsules of magnesium daily, 10 capsules of micro-C twice daily, and 6 dropperfuls of B12 daily. His stress levels have become so significant that he describes himself as "jacked up with stress" with "so much going on." Beyond the book deadline pressure, he alludes to larger battles, describing himself as "battling Darkness battling Giants and Dragons," suggesting he faces challenges that people have no idea about. His stress is also compounded by emotional weight related to his mission. He gets upset knowing how much chronic illness exists and how many people are struggling and suffering. He mentions receiving "flak" from industries because "you're not allowed to heal too many people in the world," suggesting he faces external opposition to his work. Anthony expresses that his upcoming books will "blow the roof off the universe," and he conveys that Spirit is giving him information that blows his mind every second, indicating the significance he places on the content he's working to deliver.
Throughout the writing process, Anthony has grown sick and tired of having to do all the work, expressing frustration that he has hope and faith other experts, science, and research will figure things out, but they never do. He tries to take breaks and rest, telling Spirit to let him kick back because he has faith others will figure out at least a fraction of what he delivers, but he always gets let down and disappointed, forcing him to "kick it up a notch every time."
Despite the considerable challenges, Anthony's commitment to his mission remains unwavering. His approach to book writing reflects a deep philosophical commitment to accessibility and affordability in healing. He has been approached by numerous people encouraging him to abandon book writing in favor of creating expensive programs that could generate substantial revenue—programs priced at $2,000-$3,000 each
Born with pharmaceutical exposure but no inherited metals▾
Anthony states: 'I was born and right when I was born had pharmaceutical applications now I don't have any toxic heavy metals I never had any medals passed down from generation to generation I never had any Metals passed down from my family line'
Brain Health: Exhaustion, Recovery, Medical Insights, and Research▾
# Anthony William on Brain Health: Exhaustion, Recovery, and Medical Insights
Anthony experiences significant brain exhaustion when channeling detailed medical information from Spirit for his books. During these sessions, Spirit provides him with extraordinarily complex information that goes far beyond current medical understanding—including specific details about organs' chemical functions that he describes as being potentially documented in textbooks 500 years in the future if science advances that far. The volume and intensity of this information is often more than his brain can comfortably process. While Anthony engaged in this type of intensive channeling more frequently in the past, he now primarily uses this method when actively working on writing his books.
Anthony has developed a nuanced understanding of brain composition through both direct insight and conversations with medical professionals. In a conversation with a brain surgeon, he discussed the actual makeup of brain tissue. The surgeon confirmed Anthony's understanding that the brain contains hardly any fat, contradicting a widespread belief in popular health circles. When Anthony asked why people commonly think the brain is made of fat, the surgeon admitted he didn't know the source of this misconception, suggesting it might stem from paid interest groups promoting bogus studies. The surgeon further acknowledged the limitations of conventional medical education and industry influence, saying "You don't think I don't know how the industries work?" The conversation revealed the surgeon's respect for Anthony's knowledge, noting that despite not having attended medical school, Anthony knew more about the brain than many of his medical colleagues. The surgeon also agreed with Anthony's assessment that understanding the brain as being composed of carbohydrates made physiological sense.
This understanding of brain composition as primarily carbohydrate-based developed partly from a unique inquiry. Anthony has talked to people from all over the world for years who have eaten brain as a delicacy. When they asked him how to simulate the brain flavor since eating brains isn't advisable, he suggested mixing celery sticks and bananas together. The consensus from those who tried it was that it tasted "so close to brain." This led to his deeper understanding that brain tissue is made of mostly glycogen (sugar), small amounts of omega-3, and mineral salts, which matches the banana and celery combination. This insight reinforced the physiological accuracy of viewing the brain's composition as carbohydrate-based rather than fat-based.
Brain Meditation: Origin, Practice, and Personal Use▾
Anthony William received the Brain Meditation when he was younger and initially kept it private, sharing it only with friends and family members to help heal their emotional wounds. He coveted the meditation, meaning he maintained it as an exclusive practice within his inner circle. This changed when a friend questioned why he wasn't releasing such a powerful healing tool to a broader audience. This prompted William to start a podcast through which he could share the Brain Meditation with millions of people.
Beyond introducing it to the public, William continues to use the Brain Meditation as a personal practice tool. In one documented instance, he planned to practice the meditation three times during a single evening—early night, in the middle of the night, and around midnight—by lying down in his living room and listening to the Brain Meditation episode from the Medical Medium podcast. He described desperately needing the meditation personally during this period due to the significant stress he was experiencing from work related to a book deadline.
Brain Saver books comprehensive information▾
Anthony describes the experience of writing the Brain Saver books while receiving information from Spirit of Compassion (SOC). The material was originally too comprehensive to publish as a single book, necessitating it be split into two substantial volumes. During this writing process, SOC conveyed to Anthony why certain stabilizers—specifically a betrayal and broken trust stabilizer—were essential, explaining that people carry emotional wounds and injuries in the brain from various life challenges that compile over time and require healing. SOC also instructed Anthony to prepare and forewarn readers about brain shots, emphasizing their potency and explaining that people don't usually experience instant relief, so when they do get immediate results, they could be caught off guard. Anthony emphasizes that readers should be prepared to become experts after reading the books, stating: 'be prepared to become an expert so nobody owns you, you're not controlled by anybody, you become empowered because you have the answers you have the details, your mind's going to be blown.'
Breaking belief systems under Spirit's guidance▾
Anthony describes how Spirit forced him to break through his belief systems when he was younger. When Anthony insisted he could have his own belief systems and was his own person, Spirit responded: 'No, you can't. If you're going to help people, you can't have a belief system because it's going to be something different for someone else, and it's going to be a problem that they need to do.' Spirit explained that without this flexibility, Anthony couldn't help people who needed foods to heal that conventional medicine rejected (such as fruit sugar). When Anthony resisted, saying he didn't want the job, Spirit was uncompromising: 'It's too bad. You have the job. We can't change that. You have the job. So you have to survive this.' As a child, Anthony ultimately accepted this requirement and busted through all his belief systems, recognizing that his ability to help people depended on remaining free from fixed belief systems that could conflict with what individual patients needed for their healing.
Bryce the Science Robot returning▾
AW is thinking of bringing back the Fly on the Wall character in 2025, and Bryce (the protein robot/science robot) might make an appearance. He notes that it's pretty claustrophobic to be in the science robot metal uniform - that was really hard.
Burnout, need for rest, and spiritual recognition▾
Anthony William has expressed frustration about the relentless demands of his work and the lack of external recognition for his spiritual mission. At a certain point in his life, he had hoped that conditions would improve and that he wouldn't have to work as intensely, genuinely wanting a break from his labors. However, he recognizes that the world cannot improve except through the information that he and Spirit are providing to people through his work and published books. This understanding creates an internal tension—he needs rest, yet he feels bound to continue the work because of its necessity.
William has also acknowledged that his spiritual work, particularly his efforts to expose information about angels, demons, and spiritual tools, will not bring him conventional recognition or rewards. He understands that whistleblowing on demons and darkness within the spiritual realm comes with significant consequences. As he describes it, this work is "really intense" and inevitably upsets people who oppose his message. Rather than expecting medals or awards for this challenging spiritual labor, he appears resigned to the reality that his contributions will be met with resistance and that personal accolades are not part of what this calling offers.
Business Model: No Advertising, No Marketing, No Endorsements▾
# Anthony William's Business Model: No Advertising, No Marketing, No Endorsements
Anthony William has built the Medical Medium brand on a deliberately unconventional business philosophy that explicitly rejects advertising, marketing firms, and traditional promotional strategies. This approach stands in stark contrast to how most health and wellness figures operate, and William is acutely aware of this distinction.
Regarding advertising and commercials, William has made a principled choice not to accept sponsorships or fill his platforms with ads, despite acknowledging he could "probably get 10 advertisers and make a bundle of money" by doing so. He deliberately chooses not to take that route because his primary concern is that his audience "have an experience" without commercials and advertising getting in the way of their healing and information. On his YouTube channel specifically, he has refused to monetize through advertisements, explaining: "I don't want you derailed by something. I want you to see that you can heal, know that the information is there for you. I want you to have the freedom, the choices." While acknowledging that YouTube may eventually force advertisements onto all channels, he has never chosen to do this himself. This philosophy extends to his podcast as well, where he maintains an ad-free experience for listeners.
His rejection of marketing and PR support is equally deliberate and absolute. Marketing companies have repeatedly approached him over the years, trying to convince him to hire their services. They have, as he describes it, "banged down his door" saying "how dare you do it alone, you're not allowed to do that, you better hire one of us." These firms object to his success without their intervention and would likely never permit him to do lives in his own kitchen or have the kind of intimate, unpolished conversations his audience experiences. Other health professionals in his field spend enormous sums on marketing—William notes they spend "500,000 a month, a million dollars a month" to get people to listen to their podcasts and buy their products. Some even pay "like two million dollars a month" to get their books seen, particularly what he calls "fancy doctors." Despite this market standard, Medical Medium has never hired PR or marketing firms and has no significant PR and marketing budget to speak of.
Instead, Medical Medium has grown as an organic grassroots movement. Everything has been built organically with no big promotion campaigns, driven by people actually healing and sharing the information with others. Books went out into the world, people experienced healing, and they told others about it. This approach has been remarkably successful—William has produced #1 New York Times bestselling books without any PR and marketing support, a fact that baffles critics and naysayers who don't understand how his information can save lives and achieve such commercial success without traditional marketing infrastructure. He acknowledges the skepticism he faces from those who don't comprehend this business model, noting that he gets "bashed by naysayers and discriminators all the time" for this reason.
When promotion companies approach him with alternative monetization schemes—specifically suggesting they could run his promotions by locking people out and charging fees for lectures—his response is direct: "get out of here." His commitment to keeping information free and accessible is non-negotiable. He has made information intentionally available through books priced around $20 that can also be found in libraries for free, and he has distributed hundreds of livestreams and podcasts with no paywalls. PR firms have suggested to him that he could have become a billionaire if he had packaged and sold each piece of original information separately instead of putting it freely in nine books over 10 years and hundreds of livestreams and podcasts, but this was never his intention.
William is aware that if he deployed millions into marketing like others do, imagine what Medical Medium information could reach. Yet he has chosen a different path, one that prioritizes accessibility, integrity, and organic connection with his audience over maximizing profit through traditional commercial mechanisms.
Cafe Gratitude Events and Collaborations▾
# Anthony William and Cafe Gratitude Events and Collaborations
Anthony William collaborated with Cafe Gratitude to launch a Medical Medium menu and host a series of intimate dinner events. The Medical Medium menu debuted on October 15th at the Los Angeles location, with Anthony planning to visit Cafe Gratitude periodically following the launch.
The collaboration featured four dinner nights scheduled for October 21st through 24th, during which Anthony would be present for meet-and-greets with attendees. He described these events as intimate experiences, emphasizing that he would be "right there in the restaurant" with guests, even eating with attendees and potentially doing a light blast. The demand for tickets was extraordinary—two of the four nights sold out in just 12 seconds, which Anthony found somewhat baffling. In response to the overwhelming interest, organizers added 60 additional seats to accommodate more people, and these extra spots also sold out instantly. Anthony expressed genuine enthusiasm about the events, saying "it's going to be great and who knows what's going to happen," hinting that the collaboration might not be a one-time occurrence and suggesting that those who missed it should watch for future similar events.
The intimate nature of the events meant that Anthony had exceptionally close interactions with attendees. Some guests stood only a foot away from him, and the proximity was so close in some cases that saliva from people talking near him landed on his lip, mouth, and nose. Additionally, one attendee's handshake was so forceful that it crushed his hand hard enough that he heard his knuckle crack.
Career longevity and experience timeline▾
# Career Longevity and Experience Timeline
Anthony William has been engaged in health and healing work for over 35 years, possibly longer. He has dedicated his entire life to helping people find answers to their health issues and live past their illnesses and symptoms. Throughout his career spanning multiple decades, he has helped professional athletes and tens of thousands of other people, providing medical insights that he credits to Spirit or Spirit of Compassion rather than to his own knowledge or formal training.
The origins of William's career trace to age four, when he first received his gift. At that age, he heard a voice that was distinctly external—coming from outside his head, from the air and sky around him, particularly in his right ear. This voice belonged to Spirit of Compassion, and it was unmistakably clear and not his own. Initially, he investigated the sound, thinking it might be someone outside or a radio playing, but found nothing. That evening at the dinner table, Spirit of Compassion physically appeared to him—one of only two times this has occurred—standing behind his grandmother. The entity directed him to tell his grandmother that she had lung cancer. Despite his difficulty articulating the message, weeks later testing confirmed the diagnosis, validating the authenticity of the gift through this early and profound medical insight.
From that moment at age four, the voice never left him. As he grew through ages six, eight, nine, ten, eleven, and twelve, Spirit of Compassion became increasingly dominant in his life, operating in what William describes as a "heavy-handed and unrelenting" manner. The voice took over continuously, reading the health conditions of every person who came near him without his control. During these years, Spirit taught him about the depths of human suffering and emphasized that science and research were not providing people with the answers they desperately needed. By ages eight through twelve, people would line up at his family's house door on Sundays to receive readings from him. The voice completely controlled his life, preventing him from pursuing his own dreams, attending school, or doing what he wanted, as Spirit allowed him only to conduct health readings.
Even in his earliest years, William was sharing health information that would later become widely accepted. He has been telling people to avoid gluten since he was four, five, or six years old—concepts that have now become commonplace in health circles but originated from information he was sharing decades ago when he was very young. This underscores the longevity and prescience of his work.
William acknowledges that Spirit of Compassion's heavy-handed and controlling nature was necessary for his work to flourish as it has. He explains that if he'd had the ability to turn the gift on and off at will, he wouldn't have dedicated himself fully to helping others. The intensity of the control ensured that the Medical Medium book series and decades of helping tens of thousands of people would come into existence. Despite his irritation with Spirit since age four, what compensates for this is that Spirit continues to amaze him with advanced medical information that surpasses what science and research can provide.
Throughout his career, William has been significantly older than many people perceive him to be. For years, people commonly thought he was around 27 or 28 years old, which he finds amusing given that he considers himself "an old dude" and doesn't actually look that young. When asked directly about his age, he emphasizes that he is much older than 40, describing himself as older than people realize. He wishes he were 30 years old, reflecting on the decades of intensive work behind him.
William describes himself as "not a smart guy" who never attended school. He emphasizes that he was not chosen because he is perfect—far from it—but rather because he is a good listener who can receive and relay information effectively. His expertise comes entirely from Spirit, and he has dedicated his entire life to providing people answers about their health from a higher spiritual source, information that is "above science research" and provides solutions that science cannot. He acknowledges that skepticism about his gift "comes with the territory," as it has since he was four years old. Back then, no one was jealous of his abilities, and he notes that people's acceptance or disbelief in his gift has been a constant aspect of his life since childhood.
More recently, William has expressed frustration with newer health professionals who act like they've been in the field forever when they're actually "born yesterday" and just had an awakening about eating fruits and vegetables. This observation highlights both the depth of his own experience and his perspective on the relative newcomers entering the health and wellness field.
Cemetery training as a child▾
From ages 7-14, Anthony spent countless hours in a cemetery near his home undergoing training with Spirit of Compassion. Standing over graves at ages 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 years old, Spirit would ask him to determine how each person died—whether from disease, cancer, heart attack, car accidents, or other causes. This was a 'brutal' training process designed to strengthen his abilities and develop a secondary means of connecting with Spirit that could bypass his hearing. Since Anthony hears Spirit in real time as if someone were standing there talking to him, Spirit wanted to create an alternative ability in case his ears were ever injured. Beyond developing this backup connection, the cemetery work was also meant to help him get in touch with sadness, despair, lost hope, and to understand human suffering. Anthony did not want to do this work—he wanted a normal childhood like other kids, riding his bike, going fishing, and skateboarding. The training meant he could not have those typical childhood experiences.
Censorship and content suppression across platforms▾
# Anthony William: Censorship and Content Suppression Across Platforms
Anthony William has experienced persistent and escalating censorship across multiple major social media platforms over many years, with the severity and scope of restrictions varying by platform and evolving over time.
On YouTube, his censorship began in 2019 when his channel was dramatically impacted. He had been receiving approximately 500,000 views regularly, but one day, someone who worked at YouTube "took them all away and did some weird voodoo on the system." After being censored for almost 3.5 years, his visibility was severely restricted so that only a few people saw his content. The censorship also affected his channel's notification functionality, with YouTube failing to send out sufficient notifications to his audience—notifications were sometimes sent to only a handful of people, and sometimes none at all. Adding to his frustration, after avoiding YouTube ads for over 10 years, the platform placed advertisements on his already-censored channel without his approval, consent, or compensation. Despite these obstacles, he has encouraged people to keep looking and checking his YouTube channel.
Twitter has censored him for seven years, similarly restricting his reach to only a couple of people. Facebook has imposed particularly severe restrictions, limiting his content visibility to approximately 100 people despite his having 3.5 million followers on the platform. When he goes live on Facebook, only about 800 people get notified, despite his large follower count. Instagram has been similarly restrictive, described by Anthony as "not kind" to him, with notifications sent to only a small fraction of his followers, sometimes to no one at all. On Instagram, he has been denied any ability to promote content—the platforms have not even provided him with the option to do so. He describes being "greatly shadowed" across these platforms, and people frequently get kicked off his platforms during live sessions.
During one particular live broadcast spanning YouTube and Facebook, Anthony experienced censorship at a level he had never seen before, with only 200 people total between the two platforms able to access the stream. He called it "super duper censored" and noted that "if people made it on, it's a miracle," describing this as "as censored as censoring could ever be."
Apple Podcasts stands as the exception to this pattern. Anthony reveals that he is censored on all platforms except Apple Podcasts, which he describes as the uncensored platform of choice. Even when his content appears on other platforms, he notes that little pieces are missing and other modifications are made. He emphasizes that Apple Podcasts is the only place to get his complete, uncensored content. He was surprised to hear from someone that they had been able to listen to his moon meditation every night, as he was astonished that people had trouble accessing his meditations due to Apple's censorship of them, making it unbelievable to him that people couldn't access them more easily.
TikTok presents a more complex history. Initially, TikTok allowed him more freedom than other major platforms, becoming his preferred platform because it allowed him to share information and answer health questions thoroughly without the censorship restrictions he faced elsewhere, giving him the freedom he could not find on other major social media platforms. However, he has refrained from doing TikTok live streams because the platform punishes him almost immediately when he discusses certain subjects, such as engineered flu viruses, even if he mentions them for only two seconds. He has expressed frustration about what he perceives as discriminatory treatment, noting that other people can discuss these same topics and use certain words freely without penalty, yet he continues to be punished for saying things others are allowed to say. Most dramatically, Anthony was permanently banned from TikTok right when his Brain Saver books were released, with the ban coming with no reasons given, no warning, and no avenue for appeal or reinstatement. He believes he may be the only person this has happened to on the platform.
The censorship extends to specific content topics. About 5-6 years ago, Anthony William did a chemtrail podcast that "got totally censored," and he "got slammed" and "got hit so hard" because nobody was talking about chemtrails at the time. He describes taking "a bad blow from that whole thing in so many ways" because "somebody did not like that at the top, somebody in the illumination that runs things in the system." The episode resulted in significant negative consequences for him in multiple ways.
Following his permanent TikTok ban, during the holiday period between Thanksgiving and Christmas, Anthony was subjected to intense personal attacks from influencers who oppose Medical Medium. He was called "every single name in the book" from a list of approximately a hundred insulting names, including being called ugly.
Despite these challenges, Anthony maintains a philosophical stance about the extensive censorship he experiences, joking that he "must be doing something right" given the extent of the restrictions imposed across platforms. He notes that being strategic about what he can share, even during live sessions, has become necessary due to the pervasive nature of these limitations.
Chainsaw blade sharpener acquaintance▾
Anthony knew a man who worked sharpening chainsaw blades at a garden/tractor repair shop. The job involved using a machine that would sharpen the blades, creating tiny metal fragments and vapor, along with sawdust, grease, and tree debris that would burn and create fumes. The man inhaled these metal vapors and particles every day for years, developed the worst case of asthma ever, and eventually had to get disability because of it.
Challenges managing psychic abilities in public and social settings▾
# Anthony William's Challenges Managing Psychic Abilities in Public and Social Settings
Anthony describes his psychic abilities as constantly active and impossible to control or temporarily disable, creating significant challenges in everyday social and public situations. Unlike other mediums who claim they cannot shut off their abilities but demonstrably take vacations and cruises, Anthony states there is no break for him, no relaxing, and no possibility of taking a cruise. The information comes nonstop—he will know if someone on a plane has a brain tumor or if someone walking by has diabetes. This constant, involuntary scanning of people around him takes a severe physical toll; he begins going blind from the activity, becoming "almost permanently, like mostly blind" depending on the situation and how many people are around.
Even routine outings present obstacles. When his assistant drives him around the city, at every stoplight Spirit talks to him about people's health problems, particularly their liver problems and inflammation. He hates leaving the office because of this constant barrage of unsolicited information. In restaurants, he must ask Spirit a million questions about food safety to avoid food poisoning, preventing him from simply enjoying a meal. The inability to control when and how his abilities activate makes basic social dining impossible.
To manage some aspects of his visibility, Anthony attempts to disguise himself during walks by wearing his hat down low and putting on a big old flannel jacket, uncertain whether he will encounter someone who is a "hater or a liker." He hopes to meet someone who appreciates his information and says he would gladly talk for an hour or ask them to walk with him, which he has done before. However, even this strategy cannot prevent the involuntary readings that occur around him.
Public meet-and-greet events present a particular challenge due to the volume of people and the competing demands on his attention. During these encounters, Anthony developed a coping strategy of using his left ear to listen to individual people who want to ask him questions, because Spirit of Compassion speaks to him most powerfully in his right ear—the strongest point where he hears Spirit and through which Spirit's words come through most clearly. With so many people around during meet-and-greets, Spirit of Compassion constantly talks to him about what is happening in people around him, behind him, and in various directions, with information coming through simultaneously from multiple sources. The cacophony of spiritual information about different people makes it impossible for him to focus on the person in front of him using his normal hearing method, so he consciously attempts to listen with his left ear instead, though he notes this doesn't always work given the overwhelming conditions.
Health food stores have become sites of particular difficulty. When shopping for items like dandelion greens, Anthony gets recognized and ends up doing impromptu readings in the produce aisle. On one occasion, he conducted 4-5 readings right in the produce department, with Spirit telling each person what they needed from the produce section. From doing too many readings around so many people in rapid succession, he became "snow blind" and completely forgot why he had come to the store in the first place, leaving without his dandelion greens. Only when he reached his car did Spirit ask him where the dandelion greens were, forcing him to return inside. These experiences encapsulate his broader frustration: he wants to be a human being once in a while and do normal things, but his uncontrollable abilities prevent him from having even the simplest shopping experience.
Changed view on doctors▾
For decades Anthony said every doctor has their heart in it with compassion and wants people better, just doesn't know the answers. Now admits 'I was wrong, I screwed up' because of the new internet doctors who actually want people to stay sick
Chelsea Field is a dear beloved friend▾
When Chelsea Field (actress, wife of Scott Bakula) commented on the live calling it 'the best audio book ever,' AW excitedly said 'Real Chelsea Field! Chelsea, what are you doing? Dear, dear, dear friend of mine, beloved friend of mine... I haven't talked to you in a little bit. I'm so excited that you're listening to it.'
Childhood Challenges, Struggles, and Emotional Formation▾
# Childhood Challenges, Struggles, and Emotional Formation
Anthony William's spiritual gift began manifesting when he was 4 years old, arriving as a voice speaking to him from outside his ear—not from inside his head, and not through channeling. By ages 6-7, he was reciting advanced medical information about viruses, mutations, toxic heavy metals, and brain oxidization to his family members. As he progressed through late childhood into ages 7-11, he received detailed information about serious conditions including vitiligo, multiple sclerosis, brain tumors, pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, and other illnesses—often information he didn't fully understand at the time.
Growing up with this ability was profoundly difficult. Anthony struggled emotionally and psychologically, waking up every morning with dread, knowing it would be another day of involuntarily hearing people's health information everywhere he went. He constantly witnessed everyone's suffering and illnesses, which he could not escape. The gift caused him to become 'snow blind' (light blind) from doing readings, and he frequently became overwhelmed in public places, making it nearly impossible to function as a normal human being. He didn't think he would make it past 12 years old, doubting he would survive to adulthood given the weight of hearing Spirit of Compassion from such a young age and all the responsibilities that came with it.
At ages 9, 10, and 11, Anthony was particularly vulnerable, frequently asking Spirit of Compassion "Why me? Why me?" Initially, he believed the gift was for him and that he was simply 'gifted,' but Spirit corrected him around ages 12-13, during a memorable fall day when the leaves were turning red and orange. Having a tantrum to Spirit outdoors on this beautiful day, Anthony complained about having the gift of always knowing what was wrong with every person. Spirit told him with clarity: "This gift wasn't for you. This isn't your gift. I didn't give you this gift for you. This is for the people you're going to help. This is for everybody else. This is for them, the people that you're upset about... This is for them." The realization of this truth shocked him and made him understand his purpose, though it also made the burden harder to bear when he was younger.
Accepting this purpose required significant spiritual and emotional growth during his childhood years. When Anthony was 6-8 years old, Spirit of Compassion taught him that he always had to think about the person suffering. Young Anthony protested that he didn't want to think about suffering—he wanted to ride his bicycle, skateboard, go fishing, and just be a kid. But Spirit taught him that if he never experienced suffering, he wouldn't know what it's like to be in someone else's shoes, and understanding suffering was essential to the mission of helping people. Around ages seven, eight, or nine, when the emotional burden of constantly perceiving illnesses in people around him became overwhelming, Anthony reached a breaking point where he expressed frustration to Spirit, telling him that he didn't want to care anymore because the weight of it was too much to bear. Spirit responded with a firm directive, explaining that he had to care about others, had to understand their struggles and suffering, and that the work he would do mattered profoundly. This conversation marked a turning point—William "clicked on the care button" and accepted his role, rooted in something he had understood since childhood: a deep, intrinsic desire for everyone's wellbeing.
As a child who wanted nothing more than to ride his skateboard and play baseball, Anthony struggled profoundly with understanding this purpose and accepting this responsibility. A significant part of him desperately wanted the gift to go away. He didn't want to live or stay anymore because it was too hard. He notes that historically, people who receive this gift over the centuries typically don't survive it very long, and he himself almost didn't make it through several times. When he asked Spirit why he was chosen for this burden, Spirit told him it was because there was something inside him—a toughness and strength—that would not lose it, something that would allow him to bypass the difficult years and take the ride to try to save as many lives as possible in his lifetime.
Anthony's childhood was also marked by a profound sense of isolation stemming directly from his spiritual abilities. Having the gift meant he could not participate in ordinary childhood activities and social experiences—what he refers to as the "reindeer games" with other children. To help him cope with this sense of being different, Spirit advised him to bring in figs, a remedy that helped ease his feelings of exclusion and alienation from his peers. However, Anthony also benefited from spiritual protection during his school years. Spirit provided him with insights into who the bullies were, how to avoid them, and what to say to them if necessary. This guidance shielded him from bullying situations that could have caused lasting psychological trauma or developed into obsessive-compulsive patterns.
Despite these challenges and protections, William's childhood sense of responsibility was profound and earnest. He held a deep dedication to using his light gift to help others in need, working closely with Spirit of Compassion to develop and refine his abilities. Even as a young child, he witnessed the direct results of his efforts—when he would send light to people, he could see them respond in real time. They would lift their heads, smile, or change their demeanor, and he knew instinctively that he was making a tangible difference in their lives. This concrete evidence of his impact reinforced his sense of purpose, even amid the emotional toll of his awareness. From his earliest years, he wanted everybody to be happy and healing, and even as a child, he questioned Spirit about situations where he witnessed family members who were deeply loved experiencing illness or hardship, wondering why other family members around them seemed disgruntled or unhappy. Spirit explained that such reactions stemmed from ego, jealousy, and various forms of emotional damage—concepts that puzzled the young William but helped him begin to understand human complexity.
Despite the profound challenges of his childhood, Anthony has faced discrimination his entire life for hearing this voice. As more people get better from his information over the years, opposition against him has intensified, with people making up lies about him. His life has never been easy because of this gift.
Childhood Coping Mechanisms, Resilience, and Behavioral Patterns▾
# Anthony William: Childhood Coping Mechanisms, Resilience, and Behavioral Patterns
Anthony William developed multiple coping strategies during childhood to manage both emotional and physical challenges. When facing difficult moments, personal conflicts, or emotional turmoil, he would seek solace by sitting near an oak tree that he deeply admired and respected. During these periods of distress, he engaged in a ritualistic practice of picking up acorns and flicking them from his hand, then collecting twigs to snap while sitting in front of the tree. Through this meditative process with nature, he received spiritual guidance affirming that whatever he was worried about, battling, or struggling with in the present moment would eventually pass. The oak tree itself served as a powerful metaphor for resilience—just as the tree had weathered countless storms throughout its life, continuing to stand strong afterward, William understood that the heartache and emotional storms he experienced as a young child were also temporary and survivable.
Beyond emotional resilience practices, William also faced physical challenges in early childhood that required adaptation. Around three to four years old while in daycare, he experienced chronic dehydration, describing himself as "dying of thirst." The daycare provided only minimal hydration through small Dixie cups containing just a thimble of apple juice, leaving him chronically underhydrated during his early years. This early experience highlighted how susceptible young children are to dehydration, particularly when compounded by illness such as flu and fever, presenting a physical resilience challenge alongside his emotional coping strategies.
Several distinctive childhood habits have persisted into Anthony's adulthood, becoming integral to his identity and daily practices. One of his most notable habits is intentionally making slurping sounds when drinking. He acknowledges that this behavior, which he recognizes can be annoying to others, is something he deliberately does rather than something that happens unconsciously. He traces this habit back to his childhood and has made a conscious choice not to change it despite being aware of its social implications. While he admits he could theoretically tell himself to stop slurping, he expresses a preference for continuing the behavior, noting simply that he likes it.
Another long-standing behavioral pattern involves his relationship with lemons. Since childhood, Anthony has developed a habit of spinning lemons before using them, a ritualistic behavior he continues to practice. When encountering a lemon, he feels compelled to spin it, though he expresses uncertainty about the origin or reason for this particular habit, simply noting that it started when he was a kid and persists as an ingrained part of his routine.
Anthony's personality was also shaped by sarcasm from an early age. He describes himself as having "sarcasm that I had when I was a kid" and has told Spirit that he would do what was needed but wouldn't lose his sarcasm, explaining that it's "the way I deal with stuff sometimes." Spirit accepted his sarcastic personality, acknowledging that "he could be sarcastic little kid. He could be a little snot. A little snot at 10 years old," as long as he provided the health information to people. This acceptance of his inherent personality traits while channeling them toward his life's work demonstrates how his childhood behavioral patterns became foundational to who he is as an adult.
Childhood Lessons About Ego and Self-Perception▾
# Childhood Lessons About Ego and Self-Perception
Anthony William's early years were marked by formative experiences that shaped his understanding of humility and the dangers of ego. One particularly significant incident, which he recounted from his first book, occurred during his teenage years and left a lasting impression on his approach to his healing work. After successfully helping a neighbor whose wife had been unable to walk due to her condition, Anthony found himself in the garden pulling onions and carrots, filled with pride over his accomplishment. In that moment of self-congratulation, he declared aloud that "that's because I'm always right," only to immediately step on a rake that struck him in the face with enough force to knock him unconscious. When he came to, his neighbor was standing over him, and in that vulnerable moment, Spirit of Compassion delivered a powerful message: "never forget this—I'm always right, not you, not you." This dramatic intervention served as a major ego adjustment lesson that would resonate throughout his life and work.
These early experiences contributed to the humble perspective Anthony maintained even as his work gained recognition. Reflecting on his childhood, he acknowledged that he never anticipated the level of acknowledgment he would eventually receive, noting that "when I was a child it's like, huh, never thought someone would call me a legend someday." His gratitude for being called a "legend" by viewers was genuine precisely because it stood in stark contrast to his humble beginnings and his formative lessons about the illusory nature of personal pride and the importance of spiritual humility over ego.
Childhood Spiritual Awakening, Gifts, and Calling▾
# Anthony William: Childhood Spiritual Awakening, Gifts, and Calling
Anthony William's spiritual awakening began at age four when he woke one morning and heard a voice perfectly clear, as if someone were speaking directly in his ear. This voice, which he identifies as Spirit of Compassion, has remained with him continuously from that moment forward throughout his life of helping people for 35 years. This foundational moment is documented in his book Liver Rescue with a photograph showing him holding a baby bird while begging the Spirit of Compassion to give him guidance and the ability to heal it. From the very beginning, the voice provided him with specific medical information—at age four, it diagnosed his grandmother with lung cancer, a diagnosis that was later confirmed by medical professionals.
From early childhood, Spirit of Compassion provided Anthony with nonstop information that he felt compelled to verbalize. He could not stop himself from telling people about their health conditions regardless of where he was or who he was speaking to. In grocery stores, he would approach strangers and tell them directly about their medical issues, such as 'you got a hemorrhoid' or 'you got a tapeworm.' At school, he would make similar unsolicited pronouncements to his teachers and classmates. In one notable incident, he told his teacher 'you're having your period, right?'—information the teacher could not explain, as there were no cell phones at the time for him to have overheard such a conversation. When he informed a classmate that he had meningitis, the teacher became concerned enough to ask his parents whether Anthony had Tourette's syndrome. However, the next day the classmate was hospitalized with a 105-degree fever and officially diagnosed with meningitis, validating Anthony's ability. During his teenage years, when he worked as a stock boy in a grocery store at age fourteen, Spirit would provide him with health information about every customer who passed by with their cart. He would tell people, 'Hey, did you know that you have a blood sugar problem? Did you know you had diabetes?'—sharing whatever Spirit revealed to him about their conditions.
Beyond the auditory component of his gift, Spirit of Compassion offered Anthony a choice about how to receive information. Spirit explained that Anthony could either just hear the voice or also gain the ability to see what Spirit was showing him. Anthony initially preferred to hear only the voice, hoping to avoid the visual component, but Spirit clarified that he would always hear the voice and would also develop the ability to see. To help him develop this scanning ability, Spirit took him to a cemetery to practice learning how people died. This experience was terrifying for young Anthony, and the first day at the cemetery was particularly memorable and frightening. As his gift developed further, Anthony had to acclimate to seeing sparkles and whiteouts that revealed people's health conditions.
As a child, Anthony also experienced his gift being used to help injured creatures. When he would encounter wounded animals on the side of the road—such as a turtle that had been hit, injured creatures in distress, or a grasshopper with a broken leg—Spirit of Compassion would send light down on these animals through him in what he describes as "light blasts." This early experience of healing extended to people as well. When Anthony was a child, he successfully healed a neighbor whose wife had been unable to walk and had been taken to clinics around the world seeking treatment. The neighbor was standing in Anthony's garden while he was pulling vegetables like onions and carrots when his wife's healing became apparent. The neighbor expressed amazement, saying he didn't know how Anthony had accomplished what countless doctors could not, not understanding that the wife's condition had stemmed from arsenic in their well and toxic heavy metals that nobody else had identified.
However, this early success taught Anthony a crucial lesson about humility and the true source of his abilities. As Anthony was walking in the garden afterward, still feeling proud of himself and impressed with his own importance, he stepped on a rake that slipped back and struck him in the face, knocking him completely unconscious. As he was coming to and regaining consciousness, he saw his neighbor standing above him. At that precise moment, the Spirit of Compassion delivered a powerful lesson: "Never forget this—I'm always right, not you, not you." This experience profoundly affected Anthony during his teenage years and into his late teens as he was coming into his gift, teaching him humility and shaping his understanding of his healing abilities.
From ages 6-7, Spirit of Compassion revealed to Anthony that he would have to care for people and deliver a powerful message to change the world. He was told that there would be extensive misinformation in books, TV shows, and other media about healing—misinformation that was largely propaganda backed by money in both alternative and conventional medicine. Understanding that people would be suffering and desperately needing accurate information, Anthony was informed that he would need compassion and care to fulfill this role. When Spirit first communicated to him as a child that "we got a lot of work to do" and that it needed to be accomplished in this lifetime, Anthony responded with defiance. He swore in protest, asking "What the hell are you talking about? I don't want to work," prompting Spirit to correct him about using such language. Anthony made clear his priorities as a child were simple—he wanted to go outside, climb trees, and live a normal childhood. He didn't want to do the work Spirit was calling him toward and expressed a desire to have fun and do something else instead.
When Anthony protested that he wasn't tough enough for what was being asked of him, Spirit responded with assurance, telling him "yeah, you're pretty tough. You're going to survive this. You're going to fight for it and survive it." Spirit explained that the work would require the help of others to get information out so that people could heal and tell their stories. Crucially, Spirit emphasized that the gift wasn't for Anthony himself—it was for other people. Around ages 7 to 8, when the gift first manifested in full force, Anthony resisted the knowledge he was receiving about people's health conditions. He told Spirit he didn't care about people and had no interest in helping with their health matters. He simply wanted to ride his skateboard and bicycle without the burden of this awareness. Spirit was firm in response, telling him "you have to care. Don't adopt that attitude. You have to care Anthony." When Anthony asked why, Spirit replied "you'll see, you'll see. As time goes on, you have to care Anthony." This directive motivated Anthony to consciously learn to care during his childhood.
Between ages 12 and 13, Anthony had a significant tantrum with Spirit while outside in nature on a beautiful fall day—with maple and oak leaves turning vibrant colors, perfect temperature, and sunshine. In his frustration, he cried and questioned Spirit, asking "Why me? Why do I have this gift? Why do I have to deal with always knowing what's wrong with every single person?" Spirit's response shifted Anthony's perspective dramatically. Spirit told him "This gift wasn't for you. This is for everybody else. This is for them, the people that you're upset about because you see what's going inside with them every day." Anthony acknowledges that this revelation actually made things harder emotionally when he was younger, even as it helped him understand the deeper purpose behind his calling. His personal mantra during this period became "can't you find somebody else," reflecting his desire for another person to take on the responsibility of eventually putting this information out into the world as a messenger. Though he still occasionally questions his calling, he no longer does so regularly.
Anthony's spiritual training during childhood also included learning crucial distinctions about belief systems and healing. When Anthony was eleven years old, he was becoming interested in model airplanes through a friend and was developing belief systems around this hobby. It was during this period that the Spirit of Compassion taught him a crucial distinction: while he could maintain beliefs about certain things like hobbies, Spirit explained that health was fundamentally different—it was the one area where he could not have a rigid belief system. Spirit taught him that all healing modalities have something valuable to offer, and that there is never just one thing wrong with people or one single thing that fixes everyone. Anthony learned that health experts operating within strict belief systems often make incorrect claims, such as declaring kale bad for the thyroid, when they lack understanding of root causes. When young Anthony asked if he could have just one belief system in health, Spirit agreed to his suggestion: the belief that everybody can heal, rise above their conditions, and reclaim their lives.
A crucial aspect of his spiritual preparation involved developing deep empathic abilities. At age 4, Spirit of Compassion told him that he would need to understand and feel what people with various conditions experience, sometimes to what felt like a dangerous point when he was younger. Spirit explained: "I want you to feel what it's like to be in their shoes, just as much as we can, and keep you strong at the same time." This empathic capacity has never been easy, but it enables him to understand symptoms better than the people experiencing them do, allowing him to accurately describe what people go through and truly help them heal.
The teenage years brought significant emotional challenges. Anthony struggled with the constant
Childhood Spiritual Connection and Medical Intuition Development▾
# Childhood Spiritual Connection and Medical Intuition Development
Anthony William's connection with Spirit of Compassion began in early childhood and fundamentally shaped his understanding of his life's purpose. Starting around age 6, Spirit began communicating with him and imparting lessons about compassion, empathy, and his future mission—though Anthony initially resisted this calling with the resistance typical of a child who simply wanted to enjoy his youth. In his early years, Anthony made clear to Spirit that he had no interest in understanding human suffering. At around 6 years old, he expressed this directly, telling Spirit of Compassion that he didn't care about people's suffering and just wanted to ride his bicycle and go fishing with a fishing rod to the pond. He didn't want to know what was happening inside somebody's body or why someone was suffering. Spirit responded firmly, insisting he better care and learn how to care fast. Spirit explained what Anthony didn't yet understand: what it's like when someone's health deteriorates severely and they've been to 12 to 15 doctors with no answers while being almost bedridden. Spirit conveyed that when someone is really sick, it becomes everything to them, and Anthony needed to learn and internalize what that meant.
Spirit's training in compassion became practical and direct. Beginning when Anthony was 7 years old and continuing through his early teenage years—until he was around 13 or 14—Spirit would instruct him to visit local cemeteries. There, Spirit would guide Anthony to get in touch with the names of those who had passed and the causes of their deaths, asking him to identify whether someone had died in a car accident, from disease, or other causes. During these cemetery visits, Anthony would connect with the sadness, despair, and lost hope of those who had passed. These experiences were difficult for him; as he reflected, he really just wanted to ride his bicycle, hop on a skateboard, and live a normal childhood rather than undertake this emotional work.
Around ages 10 to 11, Anthony's resistance to his mission became more pronounced and took the form of direct arguments with Spirit of Compassion about his purpose. He expressed his struggle clearly: 'I just want to be a kid, I don't want to know any kind of suffering, I don't want to do any kind of struggling.' He was particularly resistant to being connected with people who had exhausted medical options—those who had been to their fifth, sixth, seventh, or tenth doctor without getting answers. He referred to this realm as 'scary land' and told Spirit emphatically, 'I don't want to be in their shoes.' But Spirit of Compassion was unrelenting in response. Spirit insisted that Anthony had to understand what people go through, had to know what they're struggling with, and had to understand what it's like to be in their shoes. Most importantly, Spirit emphasized that 'you have to work for the light.'
During this same period, when Anthony was 8, 9, 10, and 11 years old, Spirit was already providing him with the same healing information and insights he would share throughout his adult life. Yet young Anthony questioned the very necessity of this work. He asked Spirit why this information would even be needed, thinking that by the time he grew up, everything would be figured out. He challenged Spirit, saying 'we're wasting our time. It's going to be all figured out by then. You should see what science and research is doing, right?' He believed that everything would be 'squared up' by the time he reached adulthood, making his current training seem unnecessary. Spirit, however, gave Anthony a glimpse of what was to come. Spirit told him, 'you're going to see some things happen.' When Anthony asked what, Spirit said, 'you're going to see people getting sicker and sicker and sicker.' Looking back from his childhood to his present time, Anthony reflects that it's unbelievable what has indeed happened and how many people are suffering from symptoms—noting that in the United States alone, roughly 280 million out of 325 million people are dealing with real symptoms and conditions.
As a child in the backseat of his parents' car, Anthony had many conversations with Spirit of Compassion about what this connection and ability meant and what it would ultimately do. He wondered aloud how he would help people with what Spirit was showing him. While driving down streets and seeing lights on in houses, Anthony would sit quietly in the backseat, wrestling with these questions about his future purpose.
At first, Anthony found some enjoyment in the connection. It was fun initially because he thought it was temporary. When he could hear Spirit's voice perfectly clearly and provide answers that changed people's lives, it seemed like a limited gift. But as he grew older, he realized this wasn't going away. Spirit confirmed this directly: 'I'm not going away, I'm not going anywhere. I'm in it for the long haul.' Anthony accepted this reality, though his tone suggests a mixture of resignation and eventual acceptance of his lifelong mission.
From his earliest years, Anthony William displayed an extraordinary ability to perceive detailed medical information about people's conditions. As a child in busy public spaces like movie theaters, he could identify when someone had cancer, determine the specific type, and understand various details about it. This early manifestation of his gift provided him with an intuitive understanding of cancer from a remarkably young age.
Beyond cancer detection, Anthony's childhood abilities extended to identifying viral infections and their causes. When he was 7, 8, and 9 years old, he would attempt to tell people that their various conditions were viral in nature and recommend antiviral foods to address them. He would specifically reference viruses like HHV-6, information that was extraordinarily advanced for that era. The reactions he received were extreme and visceral—people's "eyeballs popped out of their head," they would go "out of body," and he describes their shock as if "a flying saucer came out of the sky, landed right there, and made a burn mark right on the ground." The concept that viruses could cause illness and that certain foods possessed antiviral properties was completely incomprehensible and "not even computable" for people over 40 years ago.
Anthony's specific medical diagnoses during childhood were equally advanced. In single digits—at ages 6, 7, 8, and 9 years old—he was already telling people that shingles virus causes colitis, at a time when there were approximately 19 varieties of shingles (the number has since grown to 31 varieties due to mutations and advancements in herpetic viruses). At 9 years old, he would tell people about specific conditions that had not yet been detected by medical professionals, such as informing someone they had a polyp in their sinus that doctors hadn't found. When medical professionals subsequently discovered these polyps after repeated examinations, people were amazed that a 9-year-old could possess such knowledge. He would also explain the advanced mechanism of how the polyp formed—that it contained bacteria in its center creating scar tissue, with the body developing a protective capsule around the pathogen.
At age 7 or 8, Anthony told someone they had neurotoxins, describing the experience as "like an alien ship landing" because even the concept of wheat allergies was mind-blowing 30-35 years ago, let alone a 10-year-old discussing neurotoxins. When Anthony was 7-8 years old, he possessed knowledge about PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome). When someone with fluid-filled cysts in their ovaries walked in front of him, Spirit immediately conveyed to him exactly what the condition was. He emphasizes that the information he shares now is no different from what he would have told someone when he was nine years old, though he notes he has never previously published this particular story despite acknowledging it would be remarkable to share.
During childhood, Spirit was giving Anthony nonstop information and he had difficulty coping with it. He couldn't stop himself from saying the information wherever he was—if he was in the grocery store and some guy had a hemorrhoid, he'd say 'Mr. you got a hemorrhoid.' He had to say whatever Spirit told him: 'you got a tapeworm,' 'you got a hemorrhoid,' 'you got a diabetes,' 'you have a liver problem,' 'you got a cancer.' It would just keep coming nonstop and was kind of like Tourette's, though it wasn't actually Tourette's. This compulsion extended to his family home, where when Anthony was 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 years old, people used to line up at the door on Sundays to get readings. No one was jealous about his gift back then, unlike in the later internet age.
An important early lesson in humility came when Anthony was very young. After successfully helping a neighbor who couldn't walk and was in a wheelchair with multiple diagnoses including ALS—Spirit revealed to him that it was actually arsenic poisoning—Anthony developed a significant ego about his abilities. He began 'spouting out how I'm never wrong,' becoming arrog
Childhood advocacy for breastfeeding▾
30 years ago Anthony was telling women they had to breastfeed and was ostracized for it. People were angry, and doctors were yelling at him for suggesting breastfeeding past a month or for six months to two years. He would explain that breast milk contains critical carbohydrates from fruits that women eat - when a woman eats an apple, the breast milk gathers critical designs of carbohydrates from that apple, which is a miracle that's undiscovered and unresearched.
Childhood and pharmaceutical exposure▾
Anthony William states he was born and 'right when I was born had pharmaceutical applications now I don't have any toxic heavy metals I never had any metals passed down from generation to generation I never had any Metals passed down from my family line.'
Childhood daredevil behavior▾
Because Anthony heard Spirit's voice and it made him feel somewhat indestructible, everyone on his street looked at him as someone who would do more daring things. He was considered a superhero in his childhood because of diagnosing people (like a friend's mom with diabetes). This led him to do daredevilish things, going against Spirit's guidance, and he discovered he could become addicted to the adrenaline rush from dangerous activities.
Childhood development of healing and sensory abilities▾
# Childhood Development of Healing and Sensory Abilities
Anthony William's extraordinary sensory and healing abilities began manifesting in early childhood, shaped through direct guidance from Spirit of Compassion. Starting around age four, he became overwhelmed by his constant awareness of people's suffering from illnesses. When he asked Spirit of Compassion what could be done to help, Spirit introduced him to "the light"—a healing technique that would become central to his life's work.
Spirit of Compassion taught William two distinct forms of light healing during his childhood. The first involved Spirit sending light through his own body and out through his hands, which he practiced on injured animals including baby birds, rabbits with injured legs, horses that were gravely ill, earthworms drying up on the ground, and groundhogs struck by cars. The second form, developed more formally by age eight, was the "light blast" or "light technique"—directing healing light from above to land on a person's crown and run through their entire body. Learning to synchronize with Spirit's timing for when to send these light blasts became a crucial part of his training.
William's childhood car rides served as an unexpected and foundational training ground for his developing abilities. Starting at ages six, seven, and eight, he would sit in the back seat of his parents' car and look out the window at passing houses. He would ask Spirit of Compassion whether anyone inside those homes was struggling—whether they were battling chronic illness, suffering from disease, dealing with injuries inflicted by others or institutions, grieving significant losses, or facing difficult physical challenges. When he saw lights on in houses at night, he would say "light" while focusing intently on each home, then ask Spirit of Compassion to "send light down upon that roof. Send light all through that house." He performed this ritual on virtually every car ride during these years, driven by a genuine desire to help anyone who was suffering. At red lights during car rides, Spirit of Compassion would give William lessons about what was happening in the bodies and lives of people in nearby vehicles—their health problems and struggles. At ages eight and ten, he would ask Spirit if they could send a "light blast" on top of the other cars. When Spirit agreed, William would visualize the light descending onto the roof of the target car, penetrating through it and into the crowns of the people's heads, running through their entire bodies.
At age eight, William attended a crowded convention with his parents where the density of people and constant stream of health readings from Spirit caused him to go temporarily blind. At this event, he encountered someone who was visibly suffering from severe health issues. When he asked Spirit what he could do to help, Spirit taught him the light blast technique in its full form—sending healing light down on the crown of a person's head at full throttle. He then practiced this technique on everyone around him at the convention, perfecting it from that point forward.
William's dedication to using these abilities was profound. He worked hard and held a deep sense of responsibility to employ the light for the purpose of helping others in need. When sending light to people, often without their knowledge or awareness, he would watch from a distance and observe immediate responses—people lifting their heads, smiling, turning around, or looking around them because they felt something shift. As a child, he knew with certainty that he was helping. Throughout his entire childhood, William practiced using the light every single day, gradually developing and refining his healing abilities under Spirit of Compassion's continuous guidance and training.
Beyond light healing, Spirit of Compassion trained William to perceive deeper information about people's health conditions. As a young child, Spirit taught him to look inside people's brains, providing visions that allowed him to see toxic accumulations. When someone had high levels of toxic heavy metals in their brain, the vision would light up like a Christmas tree in his field of perception. Walking through crowds as a child, William saw many people's brains lighting up—so many "Christmas trees" left and right—allowing him to intuitively recognize who had high levels of mercury, aluminum, and other toxins. This visual training became another dimension of his ability to assess and help people with their health challenges.
In addition to his healing abilities, William developed a unique physical capacity from childhood: the ability to handle really high intense heat with his hands. He could grab hot potatoes right out of the steamer like it was nothing and handle hot squashes directly from the oven with his hands.
William also possessed intuitive knowledge about poisons from an early age. As a child, he knew about rat poison and was afraid of it—he knew you didn't want to play with that stuff. He also knew about insect poisoning that his neighbors sprayed out of cans. This existing childhood knowledge of poisons made the concept of chemtrails even more disturbing to him when Spirit later revealed the truth about man poisoning man from the sky.
Throughout his childhood, Spirit of Compassion also brought the Breaking Twigs spiritual healing therapy to Anthony William's attention, making this one of the long-standing spiritual tools he has received guidance about throughout his life. This comprehensive childhood practice across multiple modalities—light healing in its various forms, toxic detection through brain visualization, heat tolerance, intuitive poison awareness, and spiritual healing techniques—became the foundation for his later work helping people ignite their healing processes.
Childhood discovery of and reaction to chemtrails▾
Anthony William's first encounter with the concept of chemtrails occurred during his childhood when a friend pointed out a contrail on the horizon and asked what his spirit guides said about it. When Anthony consulted Spirit of Compassion, he received a stark revelation: there are natural contrails and there are man-made poison trails created through deliberate human poisoning of other humans—two entirely different phenomena. This knowledge proved extraordinarily difficult for Anthony to process as a child. He struggled to comprehend the fundamental question underlying the practice: "Why on earth would man be dumping poison on man?" The concept didn't make logical sense to his young mind. While Anthony was already familiar with various poisons—rat poison and insect poison that he feared—the idea that humans would deliberately poison other humans represented a different level of malice and intentionality that he found hard to accept. Although Spirit of Compassion had already taught him harsh realities about chronic illness and other difficult truths about the world, this particular revelation about chemtrails created what Anthony describes as "overload." The burden of understanding this truth was particularly heavy because it challenged his comprehension of human nature and motivation in a way that even his prior spiritual education about illness and suffering had not.
Childhood dream of running a hot dog truck▾
Anthony also wanted a hot dog truck as a kid: 'I said what about a hot dog truck he said no are you crazy you don't want to grind all those pigs up and put them in a sausage skit and put them between a bun'
Childhood food experiences and relationships with specific foods▾
# Anthony William's Childhood Food Experiences and Relationships with Specific Foods
During his childhood, Anthony William developed intense relationships with specific foods that would later become central to his spiritual journey and life's work. His favorite food was eggs, and between ages 7 and 10, he harbored a vivid dream of opening an egg shack—a small restaurant where he would cook eggs in multiple preparations for customers. His vision encompassed all the classic egg dishes: fried, sunny side up, over easy, hard boiled, poached, scrambled, and omelets. He became skilled at scrambling, frying, poaching, and making vegetable omelets without burning them (unless specifically requested). He was passionate about this idea because he believed that cooking eggs just right made people happy, and he wanted to cook scrambled eggs for everybody every day. He saw opening an egg shack as his true calling and what he wanted to do for a living.
This childhood aspiration, however, directly conflicted with spiritual guidance he was receiving from Spirit of Compassion. In some accounts, Anthony's pursuit of the egg shack dream took on a rebellious character. Around ages 7-8, he deliberately became an expert egg cook specifically to irritate Spirit, whose most disliked food is eggs. He defiantly told Spirit that he had a dream to open an egg shack and cook eggs for people as his living, refusing to do healing work. Spirit responded by telling him, "You'll see. You won't be able to do that. You're just going to hear me, and that's all you're going to do, and you're going to help people." Spirit also told him explicitly that he could not pursue this dream, explaining that he was already helping people (as he had been since age 4) and would help even more people in the future. This message was reinforced with an ironic and troubling revelation: eggs actually feed viruses and all manner of disease—information that no one else knew at the time.
Anthony initially resisted this spiritual directive vehemently. He protested that he didn't want to do healing work and didn't care about helping people in that way. But Spirit insisted with an unmovable command: "You have to care. You have to care." Eventually, Anthony had to accept and follow what he came to understand as the "truth rules," abandoning his cherished childhood dream. In addition to the egg shack dream, Anthony also harbored other childhood aspirations that Spirit discouraged. He wanted to run a hot dog truck, and he dreamed of becoming a dancer. Spirit of Compassion rejected both of these alternatives as well, rejecting the hot dog truck because hot dogs involved grinding up pigs and putting them in sausage casings. The ultimate irony of this narrative became central to Anthony's life work: the boy who loved eggs and dreamed of making people happy through cooking them was destined to become a messenger telling people not to eat eggs when they are sick—the opposite of his childhood passion. His early dream of being a food vendor was replaced with a calling to be a messenger of truth instead.
Anthony's complicated relationship with eggs began to manifest at age 7, when Spirit of Compassion told him to hold off on eating eggs one morning. When he told his mother he didn't want eggs that morning, she became very upset and "it just went out of control," with her starting to yell at him. This was his first experience with how emotionally people react when someone refuses eggs. Around the same age, Anthony also developed a passionate love for his mother's baked macaroni and cheese, which she made for him all the time, putting it in the oven until it got brown and crispy on top. When he was seven and eight years old and it came out of the oven piping hot, even though Spirit said he shouldn't be eating cheese, he didn't care because he thought it was the greatest thing he'd ever tasted in his life.
Anthony William's childhood was also marked by severe limitations in food availability. Grocery stores in his area offered only the most basic produce—iceberg lettuce, some broccoli, apples, oranges, and bananas. More specialized foods like cilantro, burdock root, aloe, and even radishes were completely unavailable. Supplements during this era were scarce and of poor quality, which he describes as "really gruesome." These limitations extended beyond his own community; at age 13, he spoke with a client in Idaho who faced even starker constraints, able to find only potatoes and iceberg lettuce, requiring residents to "ransack an entire town" just to locate some herbal tea.
The most formative experience of his childhood occurred when he was 8 or 9 years old. While dining out with his family at a restaurant, Anthony chose to ignore Spirit's guidance about what he should eat. Tired of constantly hearing spiritual direction and wanting simply to enjoy the experience of being out with his family, he ordered what made him happy despite the warning. This decision had severe consequences—he consumed something that caused him severe food poisoning, nearly costing him his life. He endured agonizing pain that persisted for weeks, and when he went to the emergency room, medical professionals could offer nothing beyond IV fluids. Spirit was deeply upset with him for making this choice against guidance.
His recovery came through an intervention that would later become central to his healing philosophy: mono eating. Spirit instructed him to eat only pears from his great grandfather's tree. He obtained ripe pears and lived exclusively on them for 2 to 3 straight weeks. This mono diet proved instrumental in saving his life, allowing his body to recover rapidly from the poisoning when conventional medical approaches had failed. After this initial phase of eating only pears, he gradually began introducing other foods back into his diet, bringing in leafy greens and celery juice to continue his recovery process. This childhood experience with food poisoning and the healing power of mono eating—particularly the pear mono diet—became a foundational element in how he would later approach nutrition and recovery from illness.
Childhood foundations and formative experiences▾
# Childhood Foundations and Formative Experiences
Anthony William's childhood was marked by an extraordinary calling to help heal others, beginning from a young age. He performed thousands of readings since childhood, eventually working fifty people per day, seven days a week for years without taking even half a day off. The physical and emotional demands were immense—mothers would bring one to two year old children with 104-degree fevers to him at 2 AM pleading for help, and he went without sleep for year after year as he dedicated himself to helping people heal.
During these formative years, William developed specific expectations about how the world would respond to healing and evidence-based health solutions. When he was eight, ten, and eleven years old, he believed that if you possessed answers to why people were sick and had things that really worked, the world would be amazed. He expected that when chronically ill people healed, when people got out of wheelchairs, when individuals with neurological conditions reclaimed their lives, and when children started talking again after doing the Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie, everyone would care deeply. However, this expectation collided sharply with reality. He discovered that no one cares—not industries, not media—which he describes as "actually sick," noting that this realization was when "you know darkness really does exist." More broadly, as a child he never expected the world to be as sick, demented, evil, and dark as it turned out to be. He had thought everybody would be happy and loving and want the information and do the right thing, but he learned that's not how the world works.
Beyond his healing work, William's childhood was also characterized by a unique spiritual relationship and a willingness to take physical risks. Around ages ten to twelve, he would take chances and do risky things, often attempting dangerous stunts like jumping a bicycle over a ravine using a little wooden ramp. He believed that Spirit would protect him and keep him from getting hurt as he flew like a bird on the bicycle and jumped the river. Before attempting such stunts, he would ask Spirit about the odds of success. Spirit would respond with specific probabilities—for instance, a ninety percent chance he wouldn't make it, a ten percent chance he would make it but would probably have broken bones, and a one percent chance he would have only really bad bruises and injury with no broken bones. Despite these sobering odds, Anthony would choose to take the one percent chance. He notes that he doesn't take those kinds of risks anymore as an adult.
William recognizes that there is significant ground to cover regarding his childhood and personal life, acknowledging that his history extends back to infancy with much complexity and depth to explore.
Childhood grocery store experiences and observations▾
# Anthony William's Childhood Grocery Store Experiences and Observations
As a child, Anthony William demonstrated unusual awareness of food quality and produce treatments that set him apart from his peers and family members. In second grade, he would hold Red Delicious apples and scrape the wax coating directly off the skin, attempting to educate his friends at the lunch table about the practice. His classmates were completely baffled by his actions and didn't understand what he meant, yet he possessed a clear knowledge that a coating covered all fruits and vegetables at that time. William attributed this early awareness to "a little helping hand"—his understanding that Spirit was guiding him even in childhood.
Beyond his observations about produce coatings, William was acutely aware of the limitations and quality of vegetables available in American grocery stores during his childhood years. Depending on where families lived in the country, very few fresh fruits and vegetables were accessible. Not everyone had access to the resources available in California, where the first health food store in the United States was located. In most places across the country, iceberg lettuce was the primary—and sometimes only—lettuce option available. William developed a strong dislike for iceberg lettuce, particularly conventional varieties, because Spirit communicated to him that "there's not a lot in here." Despite this frustration, Spirit instructed him to wait and observe what would happen in the future regarding produce availability.
William's spiritual abilities, which manifested during his childhood grocery store visits between the ages of six and nine, created significant complications for his family's shopping experiences. He would spontaneously approach strangers in the store, pulling on their arms and telling them what was medically or spiritually wrong with them. This behavior was deeply embarrassing for his parents, as other shoppers would approach them asking "Hey, what's wrong with your kid?" While some people showed genuine interest in what the young boy was communicating, his impulse to heal and inform strangers prevented his parents from completing their shopping. The situation would often escalate in the parking lot, where interested individuals would follow the family, continuing to seek information and guidance from "the little boy," sometimes even in rainy weather. These people would delay the family's departure, refusing to let them leave while his parents attempted to load their groceries and make what his father called "a getaway." His father's frustration with these incidents was evident in his characterization of Anthony's behavior as making him "a pain in the ass."
Childhood interactions with strangers▾
When Anthony was 7-9 years old, he would approach strangers in grocery stores and other places while with his parents. He would tell people they needed celery juice for their various health conditions, saying things like 'Ma'am, you really need celery juice' and explaining how it would help with their diabetes, gout, etc. He notes this was different when he was young but he can't do that as an adult.
Childhood learning about herbs, spices, and food identification▾
# Childhood Learning About Herbs, Spices, and Food Identification
From childhood, Anthony William developed a unique relationship with herbs, plants, and their medicinal properties through direct guidance from Spirit. He would walk through fields during midsummer as a child, asking Spirit to identify plants he encountered. When he would question what he saw—asking "What's this weed?"—Spirit would correct him with precise identifications, explaining that items he mistook for weeds were actually medicinal herbs like sarsaparilla or chaga. This practice of seeking Spirit's guidance on plant identification became so integral to his wellbeing that he continues it into adulthood, describing it as "the one thing that keeps him sane throughout all the stress and difficulties of life."
One specific example from his childhood was Spirit's teaching about eyebright, a small herb that grows only about three inches tall and produces delicate little flowers that William describes as "bing in the sun" and appearing to "look at you." Through these field experiences, William gained knowledge about herbs and their properties that extended far beyond what was available in published sources at the time.
Beyond plant identification in natural settings, William also learned about herbs and spices through everyday domestic experiences. At around nine years old, he experienced Spirit downloading detailed information about food ingredients in real time. He recalls being at a friend's house and observing oregano being added to food, at which point Spirit immediately transmitted comprehensive knowledge about what oregano does in the body—including what pathogens it kills and how it supports the immune system. These moments of spontaneous spiritual download about the healing properties of common cooking ingredients became some of the most exciting and joyful parts of his childhood. The combination of knowing information about herbs and spices that didn't exist in any books—information about life-changing foods and their therapeutic effects—gave him both practical knowledge and a sense of wonder during formative years.
Childhood light blast experiences with animals▾
Since Spirit of compassion started talking to me at age 4 and when I was getting a little older, 4 and a half, 5 years old, Spirit was telling me about this light and so I found a baby bird and I would have Spirit of compassion send light down onto that baby bird and then I would find an injured Grasshopper that a car bumped into or ran into and I saw it kind of bopping around on the sidewalk all injured and I would grab this grasshopper and then Spirit of compassion I would say send down the light. I would hold the grasshopper in my hand and I would have Spirit send down the light into the grasshopper right into my hand. I would do that with an injured frog, I came across an injured frog and I would hold the Frog and have Spirit of compassion send the light down on top of the frog. Every single living creature that was injured that I could find I would send light down. There was an injured bunny that was running around and I couldn't catch it and I was a child and I couldn't catch the injured bunny, still too fast but yet one leg was injured and I would ask Spirit of compassion to send the light down and I would do the light blast as a child so I would yell light light light light and spirit of compassion would tell me when the light was coming for the injured Bunny with the injured leg. The injured bunny was in a bush and ran away and was in the bush but injured and so I stood there and I said okay let's do this and spirit of compassion said okay on the count of three I'm going to send the light down on that Bunny and you say light you say light and so that light came down on the bunny in the bushes and I said light light light and a day later the bunny's leg was healed it was back out eating grass and it wasn't even limping the bunny's leg was healed and it was the same Bunny and so it was the bunny that we saw every morning and it was healed from that light.
Childhood references to Christmas trees in public▾
You know, and so when I was younger, Spirit showed me the first Christmas tree action. And then when I got into office, then I was able to see face to face. You know, if I walk through a mall or at a movie theater, I could turn around and I'll see a Christmas tree. That's what I used to call it. I used to say, Mom, there's a Christmas tree right over there.
Chinese medicine doctor in Thailand▾
Anthony knows a Southern Chinese medicine doctor who is famous in China but now works in Thailand. This doctor tells Anthony that liver heat is 'pouring in' with people coming in droves. When Anthony suggested putting patients on yams, the doctor found it helped reduce liver heat.
Christmas tree terminology with mother▾
When Anthony was young and would see people with heavy metal deposits creating electrical activity in their brains, he would tell his mother 'Mom, there's a Christmas tree right over there' when walking through places like malls or movie theaters. He used this term because the electrical currents hitting the metal deposits looked like Christmas lights in different colors - blues, reds, pinks, sapphires, emerald colors, diamond colors, magenta.
Cockroach analogy for health trends▾
Anthony describes how in the early days of the health movement, harmful health trends were like cockroaches that he could easily control with just a slipper - knocking back a few trends to keep sick people safe. But as the internet and social media grew, the 'roaches' (bad health trends) started crawling out of every corner wearing t-shirts promoting charcoal, colostrum, fish oil, and apple cider vinegar. He had to upgrade from a slipper to a shoe to combat the bigger apple cider vinegar trend, but eventually even his shoe bounced off the massive apple cider vinegar 'roach' and he couldn't protect enough people anymore.
Coffee-Related Observations and Encounters▾
# Anthony William's Coffee-Related Observations and Encounters
Anthony William has encountered multiple significant moments and observations connected to coffee across different contexts. One particularly impactful story came from a coffee farmer who shared a tragic account about his son. The young man had spent the entire day picking coffee to meet a deadline, and at the end of his shift decided to immediately shower before going on a hot date, despite knowing better. The son died in the shower from alkaloid poisoning. Anthony has stated he will never forget this story and felt tremendous respect and deep sadness for the coffee farmer who entrusted him with this painful experience.
Beyond personal encounters, Anthony has used coffee shop settings as spaces for observation. While working in his favorite coffee shop, he looked outside and witnessed an extreme number of chemtrails in the sky. He counted up to twenty visible trails and estimated there were approximately 50 to 60 total in the area. Disturbed by what he was observing, he stepped outside for fresh air. This sighting particularly struck him given his memories of the COVID lockdown period, when streets were largely empty and commercial flights were minimal, yet chemtrail planes continued flying thousands of times daily despite the reduced air traffic.
Anthony has also used coffee shop scenarios as illustrative examples in his teaching. He has provided detailed fictional dialogues depicting conversations between two men at a coffee shop, both practicing intermittent fasting and discussing their respective experiences with it. In one example conversation, one man orders black coffee with an espresso shot and a double espresso to go. The dialogue explores how these men eat pizza and burgers late at night, experience dragging moments during the day, feel jittery around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and continue consuming caffeine and chocolate to sustain themselves through the remainder of their day.
Cole's addiction recovery story▾
A 19-year-old named Cole came with his parents - he was severely addicted to opioids and had been in and out of rehab constantly. Spirit immediately told Anthony to give him the chocolate bars. Anthony gave Cole a large, foot-long chocolate bar as his 'weapon' against addiction. Cole smiled for the first time in years and said 'this could work.' Within three weeks, Cole was completely clean and never touched drugs again. Anthony stayed in contact with the family for years. Spirit had told Anthony that if they left unsatisfied that day, Cole wouldn't make it.
College experiences and friendships▾
Anthony never attended college himself, but he maintained connections with friends who did. During their college years, his friends would frequently call him after nights of partying with complaints of sore throats and strep throat, seeking his input on their health issues.
Years later, Anthony reconnected with an old college friend named Barry at a bar after approximately twenty years of not seeing each other. When they first reunited, Anthony was visibly shocked by Barry's appearance. Barry's head had swollen considerably—roughly three times larger than it had been during their college days—and his nose had become significantly enlarged, bulbous, and prominently veined. Anthony notes that this type of dramatic physical change from alcohol and lifestyle habits is common enough that old college friends developed a blunt conversational pattern about it: when reuniting after many years, they would directly ask what happened to account for the obvious tissue expansion and swelling visible in someone's appearance.
On a subsequent encounter, Anthony saw Barry again and was astonished by his transformation. This time, Barry looked dramatically different and, in Anthony's assessment, amazing. Barry's nose had reduced to approximately half its previous size, his head had noticeably shrunk back to a more normal proportion, and the swollen, distended appearance he'd previously had was gone. Barry explained that he had been following Medical Medium protocols and had made significant changes to his diet and supplement regimen. He had obtained Anthony's book Cleanse to Heal from the library and implemented multiple of Anthony's recommendations, including the morning cleanse, the heavy metal detox protocol, and the 369 Advanced cleanse. Barry also customized his own supplement protocol based on the information and guidance provided in Cleanse to Heal.
College student statistics and Anthony's observations▾
Anthony shares that roughly 17 out of 100 college students come home each year not by choice, but because they become sick with debilitating fatigue, pain, and various undiagnosed conditions. They become bedridden and have to start from scratch, often never returning to finish their college degrees. Anthony has helped many of these students recover so they could return to school. He tells them that what they're achieving by climbing out of their illness is more valuable than a degree that hangs on a wall. Many students who recovered and returned to school told him the degree didn't have much meaning compared to what they had gone through - their whole lives and souls had changed through the illness experience.
Comedy, humor, and self-deprecating storytelling style▾
# Comedy, Humor, and Self-Deprecating Storytelling Style
Anthony William has developed a distinctive comedic and self-deprecating approach to his health advocacy work over his 35 years of helping people recover from serious illnesses. He emphasizes that keeping a light heart and incorporating humor serves a therapeutic purpose for those he calls people on "mattress island" — bedridden individuals struggling with severe health conditions who couldn't walk, shower, or get out of wheelchairs. Rather than seeking credibility through a serious demeanor, he prioritizes people's healing and wellbeing, viewing humor as a tool to make his message more accessible and engaging. Each night, he reflects on whether he did enough to help people listen to his episodes so they could protect themselves.
His comedic style relies heavily on elaborate hypothetical scenarios and vivid imagery to illustrate his points. He creates absurdist mental pictures, such as imagining lemon-only dinner parties where guests have nothing but lemons to eat instead of chicken or fish, or describing a grandfather examining a lemon with fork and knife as if it were a steak, calling it "medium rare." He personifies internal organs in humorous ways, depicting livers as frustrated entities talking to their hosts and calling them "fools" while working overtime to clean up after consuming greasy cheeseburgers and pizza.
Over the past 5-10 years, Anthony has noticed an increase in his own sarcasm. When he asked Spirit about this shift, he was told it wasn't his fault — that the misinformation problem had become severe and was continuing to worsen. His assistant confirmed that he had always possessed "a little bit of a chip" about truth being hidden while people are forced to work with lies and get drawn into various belief systems. This underlying frustration appears to fuel his increasingly sarcastic tone.
His self-deprecating humor extends to joking about aspects of his daily life and personal habits. He playfully pretends to have a "mindfulness meditation coach" who instructs him to sit down, relax, and chew slowly at "37 chews per bite," before admitting he was joking and revealing that's simply how he eats a millet burger. In another instance, he joked that he would have a cigarette and something to drink immediately after ending a live stream, but then clarified he was kidding because he does not drink or smoke — referencing a previous live stream discussion about smoking and drinking that some viewers had missed. Even his casual appearance becomes fodder for humor, as he joked that his pajamas look like he had just come back from the hospital, then self-correctively clarified that he hadn't recently been hospitalized and asked where his hospital tag was.
Comes from a fishing family▾
When AW met someone who runs a seafood business selling lobsters, he said 'Lobsters have great meaning in my life. I come from a fishing family.' He was very moved by meeting someone in the lobster business.
Commitment to being normal▾
AW promised himself and Spirit of Compassion that he would try to be a normal person and not act like a guru in any way. He wants to just get the message and books out there and help as many people as possible. He acknowledges he has his own free will and personality, which includes swearing from time to time.
Communication with lab technicians▾
Anthony William shares that lab technicians from Lyme labs and other testing facilities have reached out to him privately to confirm his statements about their testing practices. These technicians have expressed surprise at how he knew their internal operations, asking him directly: 'How did you know we don't actually have [the bacteria]?' and 'How did you know that we don't see the bacteria?' According to Anthony, these lab technicians have revealed that they don't actually see the bacteria or pathogens they claim to test for. Instead, they observe elevated inflammation markers and then assign theoretical pathogen names based on what type of lab they operate—essentially naming bacteria theoretically on the test results rather than based on direct identification.
Community service philosophy▾
Anthony explains that he gets 'beaten up' and criticized no matter what he does, but his focus is on being of service to the community. He mentions being 'the only one out there of his caliber' in the health and healing world who doesn't charge subscription fees, doesn't offer expensive programs, classes, courses, or certifications that could make him a billionaire. He chooses instead to give to the community without emptying their pockets, which has been his approach all these years.
Comparison to 9/11 documentation▾
Anthony William referenced how during 9/11 in 2001 when the Twin Towers went down, very few people caught it on tape even though tens of thousands watched it happen. He noted that people couldn't just pull out their camera and take a video back then because it was rare for people to have cameras on them, unlike today when everyone has a phone with a camera. He mentioned that so much corruption and so many details were missed because people couldn't document what they were seeing.
Comparison with other authors▾
Anthony mentions talking to an author friend who doesn't love his own book, describing how the friend said 'I did the book, had some cool concepts, I took it online, the info I added a little twist of what I thought.' Anthony contrasts this with his books which are 'coming from above filled with information' that he loves deeply.
Confrontational case with skeptical husband▾
When Anthony was 18, a woman came to him who was so fatigued she couldn't get out of bed. She had been to 40-50 doctors and the best clinics across the country with no answers. Spirit found she had severe chronic fatigue from a neurological virus. She started recovering for the first time in years. However, her husband became angry that she was seeing a medical medium instead of a medical doctor, even though he admitted she was getting better. The husband came to the office alone and said he didn't want her coming for appointments anymore, which hindered her healing despite her improvement.
Connection between consciousness and immune system▾
Anthony William describes a technique he uses where he creates a mental connection between seeing the word 'zinc' and his immune cells getting 'hungry' for it. He explains that Spirit of Compassion told him that when you're taking high quality zinc and your immune cells are using it to battle exposures, a connection is made between your central nervous system, brain, neurons, and your immune system. He likens it to getting hungry for food - when someone mentions food, your mouth starts drooling. Similarly, when he sees 'Z-I-N-C,' he wants his immune cells to already be getting ready and saying 'give me that zinc because I'm ready for it.' He calls this connection 'really powerful.'
Constant spiritual guidance▾
Wherever Anthony goes, whatever he does, whoever he's around - doesn't matter if he's in the mall or movie theater - Spirit tells him what's wrong with everyone around him, what's happening in their health, if they have any illnesses, if there's something not detected, if there's something they're struggling with. The information comes through constantly.
Contacts with physicians▾
Anthony mentions he has contacts and knows physicians in various clinics including Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic, and knows alternative doctors in all those clinics, which gives him insight into how the medical system works
Convention healing line as a child▾
Anthony was at a historian convention with his dad when he was a little kid. He approached someone and shared medical information he'd received. Within an hour, word spread and a line of about 100 people formed, all wanting readings from this child who seemed to know what was wrong with people. His dad was looking for him and found him with this massive line of people seeking help.
Conversation about his writing style▾
A couple months ago, someone told Anthony William they liked the way he writes and does his information. Anthony responded that it's not his information, and when the person seemed confused, he asked if they read the first book. The person had read it but didn't really equate that it was Spirit's information. Anthony clarified that it's Spirit's words, not his own - the most advanced information coming through him.
Conversations about Health, Diet, and Medical Misconceptions▾
Anthony William has engaged in numerous conversations that reveal tensions between how health information is disseminated, received, and sometimes misrepresented in popular discourse. These interactions span both practical dietary matters and the broader challenges of spreading wellness information to diverse audiences.
In one notable instance, a friend who had followed a paleo diet for years approached William with an unexpected health problem: deteriorating teeth. The friend expressed appreciation for William's approach, noting, "I love how you're not just all about one diet. You're just about answers where everybody can apply it," before asking for recommendations to address the dental issues that had developed. William recommended leafy greens and fruit as solutions, while acknowledging that seeing results would require time. This conversation illustrated William's philosophy of moving beyond rigid dietary dogma to address individual health concerns.
William has also encountered professionals actively promoting what he describes as a "war on fruit," despite possessing minimal actual knowledge about fruits or proper preparation methods. When William questioned one such professional about their understanding of how to properly use and eat fruit, he discovered their knowledge was severely limited. Their fruit preparation skills extended only to cutting a grapefruit in half and then cutting out the squares or triangles—and notably, they were adding sugar on top of the grapefruit. Despite this profound lack of understanding about the variety of fruits available and how to prepare them, this professional was publicly calling fruit "evil" and claiming it was "totally evil." William found this contradiction—someone demonizing fruit while demonstrating minimal actual knowledge about fruits or how to prepare them—to be remarkable and unbelievable.
Beyond individual dietary conversations, William has reflected extensively on the deeper challenges of spreading health and wellness information to the public. Two decades ago, he engaged in conversations with Spirit about the timeline for widespread acceptance of his teachings. During these exchanges, William expressed frustration about the long road ahead, asking Spirit if people would soon understand the information he was sharing. Spirit's response tempered his expectations, indicating that the process would not be quick or easy. When William pressed further, asking if he would need to spend another 20 years intensely promoting this information to transform the country and world, Spirit confirmed that the journey would indeed be difficult, reiterating that ease had never been promised. This exchange highlighted William's early recognition that disseminating transformative health information would require sustained, exhausting effort over an extended period.
William has also observed how the presentation and accessibility of information affects its reception, particularly among intellectually oriented audiences. He recounted a conversation with a scholar he had known for years whose wife was ill. The scholar commented on William's informal communication style, noting that William uses colloquial language like "cool" and "awesome"—language that would not be used in academic settings. The scholar acknowledged this stylistic difference while simultaneously recognizing that despite the casual tone, William possessed the substantive information necessary to help restore his wife's health and quality of life. This interaction underscored how stylistic choices can create barriers to information acceptance, even when the content is substantively valuable.
Additionally, William encountered someone living what he perceived to be an isolated existence, completely disconnected from broader world awareness. When this man claimed there was no darkness or evil in the world, William engaged him in conversation about his daily life. The man described a routine consisting of waking up, consuming a smoothie and eggs, working out, working on his computer from home, attending happy hour at his favorite pub, meeting with his girlfriend, and watching Netflix. Through this description, William came to understand that the man was living in a protective bubble with no consciousness of what was actually occurring in the world, illustrating how different people's awareness and information access can vary dramatically.
Conversations about identity, positioning, and mission▾
# Conversations About Identity, Positioning, and Mission
Anthony William has addressed questions about his identity and mission multiple times, particularly when challenged about which ideological camp he belongs to. When someone asked him directly what battle he was in and which side of the camp he was on—suggesting he was part of the plant-based or vegan movement—William rejected this categorization. He clarified that while he does eat fruits and vegetables, he resists being placed within any particular ideological camp. Instead, he articulated his mission as being "about giving answers, real answers for the first time in medical history with chronic illness." He emphasized that if one were to call it a camp, it's not actually a camp in the traditional sense—his commitment is fundamentally rooted in service to people. He underscored the sincerity of his mission by invoking a dramatic oath, stating: "May a lightning bolt strike me dead, I said, right here, right now. May something fall out of the sky and kill me right now if I don't mean what I mean when I'm in it for people and the suffering and getting people better and getting the answers."
William has traced his sense of mission back to childhood, explaining to his parents that he received his gift at age four and has spent his life attempting to disseminate the information he receives. He acknowledged that his work involves pouring out his insights and dedicating himself to getting the answers out there. However, he has also come to a pragmatic understanding about the reception of his work: there will always be people who simply don't understand his message or perceive his books as regular health books, while others will grasp what he's sharing and some will never engage with his work at all. He has made peace with this reality, accepting that his message resonates with some people but not others—a fundamental acceptance of the limitations of universal understanding despite his unwavering commitment to his purpose of helping people and reducing suffering.
Conversations across Diverse Expertise and Contexts▾
# Anthony William: Conversations Across Diverse Expertise and Contexts
Anthony William has engaged in conversations spanning multiple decades with individuals from vastly different backgrounds—medical professionals, industry experts, elderly witnesses to historical periods, and others—drawing on their direct experience and expertise to inform his understanding of disease mechanisms, historical health trends, and modern industry practices.
## Historical Disease Pattern Shifts and Testimony
Approximately 25 years ago, Anthony spoke with an elderly doctor in his 90s who had maintained a thriving medical practice from the 1920s through the 1940s. This physician provided crucial historical perspective on the dramatic evolution of disease presentation over his career. During the late 1920s through 1940s, chronic illness was remarkably rare in the doctor's practice, with patients presenting primarily with acute conditions such as appendicitis, gallbladder issues, heart attacks, and strokes. However, by the 1950s, a stark transformation occurred. The doctor described how people began flooding into his office with an entirely new constellation of symptoms including neurological issues, fatigue, heart palpitations, and hot flashes, predominantly affecting women. The doctor and his medical colleagues were bewildered by these mysterious symptoms they had never encountered before in their decades of practice, leaving them shaking their heads at this unexplained epidemic of chronic conditions.
Anthony has also consulted with other older medical professionals—doctors in their 90s who practiced during the period when the autoimmune theory was being developed and formalized in the 1950s. These experienced physicians provided Anthony with historical context about how the autoimmune theory was created and what clinical circumstances surrounded its development during that era.
Beyond medical professionals, Anthony conducted conversations in the 1990s with elderly people in their 70s, 80s, and 90s, during which he repeatedly heard accounts of childhood deprivation and food insecurity. These individuals consistently shared memories of going to bed hungry, particularly those who grew up in large households with four, five, six, or eight children. These conversations provided Anthony with direct testimony about widespread food insecurity across American families during earlier decades, offering him perspective on how dramatically material conditions and health have shifted across generations.
## Viral Mutation and Scientific Perspectives
Seven years ago, Anthony engaged with a team of three scientific experts—a chemist, a biologist, and an immunologist—to discuss mutated varieties of Epstein-Barr virus in relation to a patient case. The experts initially responded with skepticism to the concept of different mutated EBV strains, but one of them eventually acknowledged that viruses probably do mutate. Anthony has noted how the passage of time has made these medical professionals increasingly accepting of this information about viral mutation and variation.
## Dietary and Lifestyle Guidance
In discussions about dietary challenges, Anthony spoke with a doctor friend who expressed frustration about being unable to get his patients off coffee and chocolate, noting that people had been convinced these substances were beneficial. When asked what approach to take, Anthony suggested a counterbalance strategy—recommending foods like strawberry banana salad to counter the negative effects of caffeine rather than attempting outright elimination, recognizing that people who have been conditioned to believe in these foods' benefits resist stopping their consumption.
Anthony shared an experience with another doctor friend who described experiencing white spots, or floaters, in his vision when closing his eyes and sought Anthony's input on the condition. Anthony suggested the doctor reframe the floaters mentally, envisioning them as white blood cells rather than the problematic spots they appeared to be. The doctor found this visualization technique to be transformative and life-changing.
## Industry Insights and Conversations
Anthony has engaged in substantive discussions with industry experts and producers about their business practices and the implications of his health guidance. In a conversation with an egg farmer, Anthony learned detailed information about the complex supply chain involved in egg distribution. The farmer explained the multi-stage logistical process: eggs are collected and placed in cartons, then loaded onto trucks for transport to transition stations, where they are transferred to additional trucks for cross-country distribution. From these distribution points, eggs move to grocery store warehouses before farms must actively contact stores to encourage them to stock products on shelves. This extensive process typically takes two to three weeks from farm to consumer, which is why farmers must label cartons with extended shelf life dates to account for the accumulated time in transit and storage.
Anthony has also conversed with a sustainable chocolate producer who expressed concerns about the impact of Anthony's health recommendations on their business. Despite the producer's commitment to sustainable and fair trade practices, they found his messaging against chocolate challenging for their operations. Anthony acknowledged their position while explaining that his guidance reflects a broader reality: people will continue to eat chocolate regardless of his recommendations, and the Medical Medium cannot prevent individuals from making their own dietary choices. He characterized the chocolate and caffeine industry as "a monster" that maintains widespread addiction throughout people's lifetimes, framing his messaging as addressing systemic industry practices rather than targeting individual producers.
## Immune Support and Emergency Medicine
During a period focused on immune health, a doctor friend named Dr. Freddie contacted Anthony to report seeing increased numbers of flu patients and asked whether Anthony had been communicating about immune support with his followers. Anthony acknowledged that he had been concentrating on developing brain challenge and brain shot therapies and hadn't yet addressed immune support, but committed to doing so after the doctor's encouragement to remind people about these measures.
In a separate conversation, an emergency room doctor told Anthony about a notable pattern he was observing during the 2020 holiday season: emergency rooms were receiving patients with both genuine heart attacks and panic attacks that mimicked heart attack symptoms. The doctor reflected that if people had been implementing the Medical Medium morning cleanse during the holidays, many of these cardiac emergencies could have been prevented.
## Surgical Knowledge and Brain Anatomy
Anthony William has developed relationships with multiple surgeons over the years who have expressed surprise and validation regarding his medical knowledge despite his lack of formal medical training. In discussions about brain anatomy, Anthony spoke with a brain surgeon who confirmed that there is hardly any fat in the brain, contrary to widespread belief. When Anthony questioned why this misconception persists, the surgeon suggested it may have originated from paid studies or industry-backed research, acknowledging his awareness of how such misinformation spreads. The surgeon was particularly struck by Anthony's assertion that the brain is made of glycogen and carbohydrates rather than fat, saying it "makes a lot of sense" and that Anthony "happen[s] to know more about the brain than a lot of [his] colleagues" despite never having attended medical school.
## Gallbladder Expertise
Anthony has had conversations with a surgeon friend about gallbladder anatomy and variation. The surgeon expressed amazement at Anthony's knowledge of how gallbladders vary in shape, size, and position between individuals and between men and women. While the surgeon acknowledged that removing many gallbladders over the years teaches such variations, he found it mind-blowing that Anthony possesses these surgical details without ever having performed surgery himself. The surgeon, who understands that Anthony's knowledge comes from spiritual sources, still struggled to comprehend how Anthony knows "these little nuances, these little things" that typically require hands-on surgical experience. This same surgeon who removes gallbladders told Anthony that he knows there is material inside gallbladders that should be examined under a microscope and believes that $50 million in dedicated funding should be invested just to understand what's inside them, so the medical profession could comprehend what has been done wrong medically.
## Thyroid Surgery and Systemic Pathogens
Regarding thyroid surgery, Anthony has told surgeons that he knows they cannot remove every single thyroid cell during the procedure. When asked how he would know this, Anthony responded "because I have my source." The surgeons confirmed his accuracy, acknowledging that while they don't discuss it publicly, it is indeed impossible to remove every thyroid cell during surgery.
Anthony has spoken with surgeons about what they encounter during surgical procedures. Multiple surgeons have told him about the presence of yellow pus found inside people's bodies when they perform surgery, saying "you wouldn't believe the yellow pus that's inside everybody." When Anthony mentioned that Spirit of Compassion had always told him this, the surgeons confirmed the truth of his knowledge, stating they see this regularly when they cut open patients.
## Chemical Storage in the Body
Anthony recently spoke with a surgeon who has an incredible sense of smell and doesn't use any fragrances, fabric softeners, chemical cleaners, cologne, perfume, air fresheners, or scented candles. Because the surgeon removed all chemicals from their life, their nose became extremely sharp. The surgeon told Anthony that when cutting patients open during surgery, they can actually smell air fresheners and scented candles coming from inside the patient's body, confirming what Spirit of Compassion had told Anthony about these chemicals being stored throughout the body.
## Caffeine Dependency in the Medical Profession
A significant topic in Anthony's conversations with surgeons has been caffeine dependency within the medical profession. Multiple surgeons have told Anthony that they cannot operate without caffeine, and they have shared that this dependency is universal among their peers and colleagues in medical school. One surgeon told him that every surgeon she trained with—all her colleagues in medical school—cannot
Converting a doctor through hours of discussion▾
MM spent hours last year talking with a doctor about the protein myth, answering question after question. Finally, the doctor realized there was no actual science showing protein from food leaving the intestinal tract and going to organs to fix or heal anything. The doctor looked extensively, talked to scientist friends and specialists at his big medical clinic, but no one could find a study showing protein actually doing anything in the body. That's when the doctor said 'I've been duped' and all of MM's information finally made complete sense to him.
Coordinated campaign against Medical Medium▾
# Coordinated Campaign Against Medical Medium
Around spring 2020, Anthony William became aware of an organized effort to discredit him when two women approached him with information about a paid campaign spreading rumors and lies in his name. These women had been directly approached and offered money to participate in spreading negative information but refused the payment and instead reported the scheme to William. He noted the disturbing nature of the conspiracy, as some of those involved in spreading lies were people from unexpected backgrounds who appeared to be living normal, sincere lives while secretly participating in the coordinated effort.
By 2025, William indicated he had been collecting evidence and planning a comprehensive response to his critics. He reflected that he had attempted to handle the situation with patience and friendliness over a period of years, but was preparing to formally address and settle matters with those who had attacked him, stating that 2025 would be a significant year for confronting his attackers.
The most detailed revelation of the coordinated campaign came through recordings obtained by guest Amber Vizzicaro, who had legally recorded phone conversations between key plotters. These recordings exposed a multi-step plan to orchestrate a takedown of Medical Medium and his community. The plotters, who referred to themselves as "elite," had devised a strategy to feed a carefully crafted negative story to a mainstream media journalist, with the goal of generating negative articles that would culminate in a damaging documentary. The plan centered on using the story of a deceased person as their narrative vehicle while remaining anonymous themselves to avoid accountability for their actions. Their stated objective was to create a "post-Medical Medium era"—a period in which they could continue using William's health information and methods without attribution or credibility given to their source.
The conspiracy involved sophisticated use of media industry connections. The primary plotter was married to Britton, an Oscar-winning cinematographer who had worked on the Netflix documentary "Bad Vegan," giving the group direct access to high-level media contacts. The second plotter leveraged his own literary agent to connect with the journalist, creating multiple overlapping conflicts of interest designed to ensure the narrative would be shaped precisely as the conspirators wanted it. These insider connections represented a coordinated effort to manipulate the story through institutional channels rather than allow it to develop organically through journalism.
Despite their public antagonism toward William, the recorded conversations revealed a fundamental contradiction in the plotters' position. Multiple conspirators acknowledged the genuine value and effectiveness of the information William teaches. One plotter stated explicitly that "there are certain things that he's teaching that no one else out there is" and described the information as "quite powerful and quite effective." Another admitted that all of them personally used William's methods, noting "I got no problem drinking the celery juice" and acknowledging that "Anthony has to be thanked for many positive health-related qualities." Their motivation for the campaign was not rooted in a belief that his information was ineffective or harmful, but rather in their desire to access and profit from his teachings without giving him credit—hence their goal of creating a world where Medical Medium's influence would disappear but his methods would remain in circulation under different sources.
The timeline of the plot's execution revealed the level of coordination and frustration involved. The conspirators brought their crafted story to the media company around March or April 2022, expecting the resulting article to be published within a couple of months. However, the process moved far more slowly than anticipated. One of the plotters expressed intense frustration over the delays, saying "I never in my wildest dreams thought it was going to take this long" and "I'm just so fucking sick of it." Rather than allowing the story to develop through normal journalistic processes, this plotter took an active role in pressuring the journalist to work faster and maintain momentum on the project. This pressure campaign demonstrated that the effort was fundamentally a coordinated attempt to control the narrative through direct intervention rather than a case of organic investigative journalism responding to legitimate concerns.
Coping mechanism with difficult information▾
Anthony William has always coped with delivering hard, scary information about health and suffering by trying to keep some joy in his heart. He giggles and chuckles a little during difficult moments as a way to cope with the terrible news he has to deliver. This has been his coping mechanism since childhood when Spirit started giving him frightening information about the world.
Copper bracelet experience▾
Anthony William ordered a copper bracelet online from a jewelry line that also makes copper earrings, necklaces, and anklets. The company marketed it as healthy and good for healing when it touches your skin. After wearing it, he realized he needed to do his heavy metal detox smoothie the next morning because copper is actually highly toxic.
Correction from Spirit of Compassion▾
During the live, Anthony was corrected by Spirit of Compassion about mercury amalgams. He initially thought they weren't used anymore, but Spirit corrected him that they still put mercury amalgams in people in the US and around the world. He admits he hates being corrected by Spirit of Compassion but has to accept it when he's wrong.
Could have become a doctor▾
Anthony states that becoming a doctor was a direction he 'could have easily went' and that 'of course I could have went to medical school. I didn't have to. I had a voice telling me advanced medical information that doctors use all the time.' He mentions these books are all in doctors' offices.
Counseling people about food choices▾
Anthony describes his experience counseling people who make food substitutions that sabotage their healing - like someone who claims to eat the recommended salad daily but has actually added ham, eggs and croutons, or people who say they can't eat in the morning but then consume pizza and pastries. He mentions how Spirit of Compassion (SOC) tells him what's really happening when people's healing stalls.
Creating the term 'spirits' for alcohol▾
Anthony claims he started calling alcohol 'spirits' 30 years ago, and says this term came from him originally. He mentions he has this in writing from 30 years ago and could prove it. The term relates to his teaching that negative spirits/energies are attracted to people engaging in addictive behaviors and self-destructive activities.
Current lifestyle, location, and daily practices▾
# Current Lifestyle, Location, and Daily Practices
Anthony William currently resides in Venice, California, Los Angeles. He has attempted to maintain some physical activity despite his demanding schedule, taking walks when possible, though he takes precautions to disguise himself during these outings due to public recognition. During a recent morning walk, he observed squirrels along streets he noted as being quite dangerous, and remained cautious about potentially encountering either supporters or detractors.
His beverage choices reflect his wellness philosophy. During podcasts and daily life, he regularly sips healing teas including peppermint tea, nettle leaf tea (specifically Traditional Medicinals brand), and ginger tea. He uses these beverage moments to discuss the nutritional properties of herbs, such as the natural sulfur compounds found in nettle leaf.
William's lifestyle is heavily constrained by the demands of his work and public recognition. He has worked seven days a week for six straight years without taking a half day off or any holidays, working through nights to handle emergency calls. This intensive schedule means he cannot dedicate two hours to gym sessions four times weekly as he would like. Instead, he hops on a bicycle and takes runs whenever possible, though he acknowledges he still doesn't have adequate time for exercise and jokes that perhaps someday he'll quit working to become "a gym guy." The stress and pressure of his work—including tight deadlines and the emotional weight of wanting people to heal—are substantial.
Public recognition severely limits his freedom of movement. His assistants do not allow him to leave through the front door alone because people immediately recognize him, beep their horns, and shout "celery!" at him. Even mundane activities like putting out the garbage or standing in front of an office building result in recognition, with people honking and yelling. On one occasion, someone mentioned having just seen him live on Instagram while he was putting out the garbage. His assistants also restrict his movements due to the physical toll of his work—after conducting too many readings, he goes "half blind" and bumps into things. He cannot visit public spaces like Whole Foods because he gets mobbed. When he does venture out for walks, he attempts to disguise himself as much as possible to avoid confrontation with either supporters or detractors.
Despite the immense stress and pressure of his life, William maintains strict discipline regarding vices. He would love to "vice out" and party, but he attributes his restraint to what he calls Spirit of Compassion, which would intervene if he attempted to drink beer or vodka. He describes his idea of "partying" as eating large quantities of avocados from his own avocado trees when they ripen, making big bowls of guacamole daily. He considers it miraculous that he doesn't smoke, vape, or drink alcohol given the pressure he experiences.
William applies his health recommendations to his own family members. He ensured that a family member who was breastfeeding followed his mono eating cleanse protocol due to her digestive troubles, demonstrating how he implements his wellness practices within his household.
Daily Life: Health Routines, Spiritual Practices, Work, and Responsibilities▾
# Anthony William's Daily Life: Health Routines, Spiritual Practices, Work, and Responsibilities
## Morning Routines: Grounding and Spiritual Foundation
Anthony William's mornings begin with practical observations that ground his day. Upon waking—sometimes as early as 5:30 AM—he first observes the weather outside, checks whether his car is running properly and tires have adequate air, reflects on sleep quality, and checks in on how his family members and pets are doing before turning his thoughts to food and nutrition planning. This habit of weather observation traces back to his teenage years and childhood.
His morning spiritual practice begins immediately with foundational affirmations. He says "I work for God"—a declaration establishing his fundamental commitment—followed by a fighting intention: "I'm going to fight for the chronically ill—that's what I say first thing in the morning." These affirmations are accompanied by reflective questions that deepen his sense of purpose: "Does everybody have what they need? Do they have what they need to heal? And what can I do more? Is there something I'm not doing so that you guys can get what you need?" He engages in direct conversations with the Spirit of Compassion, asking whether they've accomplished their goals like finishing and releasing his book *Cleanse to Heal*, and reflecting on how many lives they are saving around the world. During these spiritual check-ins, Spirit reminds him of his decades of work since childhood and encourages him to continue fighting for his cause despite opposition, particularly regarding fruit advocacy and combating anti-fruit propaganda in alternative health industries. Spirit specifically reminds him to advocate for wild blueberries, blackberries, watermelon, mangoes, figs, and dates.
There are mornings when Anthony feels beaten down by anti-fruit messaging in alternative health industries and questions whether he should continue advocating for fruit consumption, but during these moments of doubt, Spirit's response reinforces his mission and reminds him of the lives he has already saved. He acknowledges awareness of challenging health conditions lying ahead for many people and sometimes prays, "God give me strength." His morning prayer to the Spirit of Compassion is direct and purposeful: "I'm going to do everything I can, everything possible. I want people to get every chance they deserve. I want you to heal. It's all that matters, to me anyway." Upon fully waking, he also tells God, "I'm at your service. I'm working. Let's do it," and his first internal thoughts center on a repeated prayer: "What more can I do? God, what more can I do? I need to make sure you guys get some healing one way or another." His morning practice also includes a specific prayer to Spirit, where he expresses the wish that "people [are] doing the right thing."
## Morning Health Routines: Juicing and Nutrition
Anthony's morning nutrition is integral to his daily practice and mission. He juices every single day, seven days a week, every year, sometimes multiple times per day. Given his irregular work schedule—often staying up really late at night working, getting up very early in the morning, or working through the entire night without sleep—he aims to begin juicing at 5 or 6 in the morning, timing driven by his desire not to wake up his household. He uses an Omega juicer, which he considers the best juicer available, running celery through it as a cornerstone of his routine.
Wild blueberry juice shots form the cornerstone of his juicing practice, consumed daily beginning with a shot in a shot glass each morning, typically 2 ounces, which he treats as medicine comparable to elderberry syrup rather than regular juice. His consumption of wild blueberry juice far exceeds the 2-4 ounce medicinal dose he suggests to the public. Beyond his morning routine, he keeps wild blueberry juice on his desk while working and takes additional shots throughout the day, maintaining a bottle in his car as well. His wild blueberry shot routine varies in frequency; some days he takes two shots, and on other days he takes three. Before consuming these shots, he follows a specific meditation ritual, connecting with the energy of the juice and performing a blessing before taking them like a tequila shot—though he notes he's never actually had tequila.
His choice of juicing equipment reflects his intensive usage pattern. He has tried many juicers over time but ultimately settled on the MM-900 HDS juicer, driven by the unique demands of his daily usage. Unlike casual users who purchase juicers and use them sporadically—once a month or for three months before abandoning them—Anthony needed machines built to "take a beating" and "get the crap kicked out of them" due to his consistent, daily intensive use. The MM-900 HDS juicer proved to be the solution, using half the celery he previously required with other juicers, resulting in significant cost savings. He has developed such affection for this machine that he tells it "good boy" every day, reinforcing that "good boy you just paid for yourself again" due to the money saved on produce. Beyond its efficiency, the MM-900 juicer's quiet operation aligns perfectly with his early morning juicing needs—he appreciates that it doesn't wake up his household when he begins juicing in the early morning hours.
Each morning, he also prepares his heavy metal detox smoothie, which contains Vimergy barley grass juice powder, Vimergy spirulina, frozen wild blueberries, Vimergy wild blueberry powder mixed in coconut water, cilantro, and dulse. He ensures to include leafy greens in his diet as well. His typical daily celery juice consumption varies—sometimes 16 ounces when he has limited bunches available, on other days as much as 64 ounces, with 32 ounces being his more typical daily intake. By the time he comes on air for broadcasts, he has already consumed his lemon water and has his celery juice with him.
## Daytime Food Practices and Meal Preparation
Anthony's daytime eating patterns emphasize deliberate meal timing and food selection designed to optimize energy and mental clarity. He describes having periods of light eating throughout the day before consuming meals that significantly impact his cognitive function, such as lentil tacos, which have noticeably energized him and provided a cognitive boost. Fruit consumption forms a central pillar of his diet, with regular consumption of three or four mangoes in mid-morning. He defends this intake against criticism about caloric consumption by pointing out that such fruit consumption is modest compared to the processed foods others consume when dining out at restaurants, viewing his fruit-heavy approach as far superior to the "abominations" people regularly eat in conventional settings.
Potato preparation reflects his systematic approach to meal assembly. He steams potatoes in bulk and stores them in the refrigerator without a lid to prevent them from becoming spongy, preferring them to remain slightly dry with air circulation around them while stored. This batch-cooking method ensures he has pre-steamed potatoes readily available for assembling various meals like potato bowls throughout the week.
Produce hygiene is another significant aspect of his food preparation routine. When washing bananas upon arriving home from the store, he deliberately cleans them first rather than placing unwashed produce directly on his cutting board, concerned about contamination accumulated through shopping carts, customer handling, and warehouse storage conditions. This washing practice becomes especially routine when he purchases individual bunches rather than cases of bananas from the store.
In his professional practice, Anthony made avocados a cornerstone of his daily office routine with patients. He would present avocados to visitors every single day, enthusiastically holding them up while calling them "the golden goose" and "the golden egg," then cracking and cutting them fresh in his office. Though many patients initially reacted with skepticism—looking at him as though he were "an alien from another planet"—Anthony remained committed to demonstrating through this persistent daily practice that dietary solutions existed for health problems.
## Supplement and Detox Routines
Anthony maintains an extensive daily supplement and detox routine reflecting his commitment to preventative health and supporting his demanding lifestyle. Lemon balm is foundational to his wellness practice. He describes living on lemon balm and considers it critical and accommodative to his life. His preferred preparation method involves placing water and a little honey in a cup, then adding liquid lemon balm extract directly. He uses this preparation every other day, having switched to the extract approach after previously running out of lemon balm tea bags. He finds the routine brings him joy, noting that he can feel the calming effect when he consumes it.
Propolis holds a special place in his supplement arsenal. He takes propolis three times a day as a preventative measure, even when he doesn't have an active illness, and he describes propolis as the one supplement he would take if he could only choose one. He always travels with it, keeping it in his pocket or bag. When around sick people or feeling run down from lack of sleep and stress, he takes propolis immediately as a preventative measure. He also uses
Death Threats and Security at Book Signings▾
Anthony William has faced genuine death threats throughout his career as a public figure in the wellness space, though he has historically not discussed them publicly. Unlike individuals on social media who claim to have received threats without substantiation, William's threats represent a documented pattern of security concerns that have required tangible protective measures at his public events.
One notable incident occurred approximately 20 minutes before a Barnes & Noble book signing, when someone called in a specific death threat stating "I am going to kill Anthony William." Despite receiving this threat, William proceeded with the event, which ultimately attracted 24,000 attendees. In preparation for this signing, security personnel were stationed to protect him, though William requested they give him space during his morning walk so the presence of security would not appear conspicuous to the public.
The security measures implemented for book signings have evolved to address both personal safety and community health concerns. Beyond standard protective protocols, special procedures were put in place including the use of separate bathrooms as part of broader health protection measures for attendees. At more recent events, William's security arrangements have expanded significantly, with dozens of security personnel present including off-duty police officers and marshals. Rather than concentrating security efforts primarily around William himself, he has intentionally deployed guards throughout venues to protect the entire Medical Medium community. This broader security approach reflects requests from his community, as security had become one of the top concerns raised by his followers attending public gatherings. These comprehensive protective measures represent William's commitment to ensuring safety for both himself and his attendees at major public events.
Decades of Healing Practice and Spiritual Service▾
# Anthony William: Decades of Healing Practice and Spiritual Service
Anthony William has dedicated his life to healing work since age four, accumulating decades of extensive experience in direct practice with people seeking health guidance and spiritual counsel. Beginning his counseling and advisory work when he was younger, he has worked intensively with a large number of people on a consistent basis—seven days a week for years and years—providing him with extensive exposure to diverse cases and perspectives. Over a 35-year period, he has helped 250,000 individuals one-on-one, not counting the additional reach through lectures and group teachings. Beyond these direct sessions, he has helped tens of thousands of additional people and continues to expand his reach through modern technology.
Throughout his decades of practice, Anthony has witnessed dramatic transformations in people's health conditions. Patients would arrive at his office in severe states—some walking with walking sticks, others wearing braces on their legs, many being wheeled in, and some even being carried inside. He has personally witnessed the power of fruits and vegetables to heal people who were in such dire physical conditions that conventional approaches had left them with limited options. Anthony emphasizes the distinction between his decades-long track record and newer practitioners who may have only been working for brief periods, stressing that he has not been practicing for merely 4, 8, 9, 11, or 15 years, but rather for decades—a crucial difference when evaluating who has genuine long-term experience with what actually works for healing.
A significant aspect of Anthony's work involves providing advanced healing information that has often been ahead of its time. Even 30-40 years ago when he was younger, Spirit would provide him with cutting-edge healing information that the medical and wellness fields had not yet caught up with. This created unique challenges: he would tell people they needed specific treatments—such as adenosylcobalamin B12 in particular forms to save their nervous system and help with conditions like multiple sclerosis or ALS—but those specific resources didn't yet exist in the marketplace. He and his clients had to be creative with alternative methods until the necessary technology and products eventually became available. Throughout his work with the 250,000 individuals he has helped directly, Anthony has taught people about foundational healing practices such as lemon water and its liver-flushing properties, sharing this knowledge as part of his comprehensive approach to helping people understand what is wrong with their health and what they need to heal.
In addition to his health-focused counseling work, Anthony has fielded decades of spiritual inquiries from people seeking guidance on metaphysical matters. The questions he has encountered span a wide range of spiritual topics, including demons, the afterlife, ghosts, spirits, and angels. Among these various inquiries, questions about demons have been the most prevalent, with people consistently asking what is happening with demons, how demonic forces work, and whether demons are even real. Throughout his career, he has engaged with many professionals and doctors across different areas of the field, accumulating broad experience through these interactions.
Anthony's commitment to his service has involved significant personal sacrifice. He has been up all night helping with emergency situations, with people bringing children to the front door of his house, and has slept barely anything over the course of 30+ years. He approaches his work at people's service just as listeners are at service to God, family, and others.
According to Anthony, he has long held back substantial spiritual information from public sharing, believing that "the hands of time had not allowed it." However, he indicates that a turning point has arrived—a time when he feels it is finally appropriate to release and make this accumulated spiritual knowledge publicly accessible to anyone seeking it.
Decades of work with medical professionals and critically ill populations globally, including observations of blood clots▾
Anthony William has been engaged in healing work since childhood, beginning at age 4, and has developed extensive professional relationships over more than 35 years of dedicated practice with both medical professionals and critically ill populations globally. Throughout his decades of work, he has established connections with lab technicians, doctors, and numerous high-profile individuals, gaining deep insight into how medical industries operate.
His direct experience with severely ill patients is formative and substantial. Over the course of his career, Anthony has witnessed countless people entering his office, many of whom had to be carried in due to the severity of their conditions. He has observed firsthand the exhausting toll that even basic daily activities take on the critically ill—people so debilitated that simple tasks like going to the bathroom and showering would leave them so exhausted they would need to rest in bed for hours afterward. A single doctor's appointment would completely deplete their energy. Through his direct work and observations, he has seen a lot of blood clots, with Spirit of Compassion showing him numerous blood clots inside people's lungs throughout the years. He has consulted extensively with pulmonologists and various medical specialists over the years about the seriousness of these clots, deepening his understanding of this particular health crisis.
Throughout these decades of collaboration, Anthony has spent years helping doctors troubleshoot difficult cases. Through these working relationships, he has learned that doctors share stories about patients who cry to them about their symptoms, revealing the deep emotional weight patients carry. These conversations have shown him that medical school does not provide doctors with the information they need to effectively address chronic illness—a gap he has worked to help fill through his professional collaborations. Several of the doctors he has worked with have written forewords for his books, and he continues to expand these professional connections by planning to interview scientists and lab technicians who support his work.
His long tenure in this field has given him a unique perspective on the progression of chronic illness. The prolonged and intimate exposure to suffering has shaped his perspective profoundly; he never takes for granted the ability to engage in normal physical activities like running or riding a bicycle, having watched so many "wounded soldiers" who were unable to exercise for years at a time. He has witnessed illness worsen year by year, month by month, and across entire decades, yet he has also seen the other side of this struggle—people who came to him after suffering for decades, received help, and finally became free from their conditions. Despite having witnessed enough suffering to last a lifetime, he continues to see it every day, which breaks his heart. This deep well of experience informs his approach to his audience, which is predominantly composed of people dealing with chronic illness, and he operates from a philosophy of giving rather than taking, not asking much from those who already have so much going on.
Decision to move out of haunted house▾
After the spirit grabbed his leg, Anthony decided to move out rather than do the energy work to cleanse the house. He realized the encounter was borderline demonic rather than just a ghost, and decided to let all the spirits stay there together while he found somewhere else to live. He acknowledged he could have cleansed the house with light work but chose the easier path of moving instead.
Declining TV and media opportunities▾
# Declining TV and Media Opportunities
Anthony William has received numerous television and media opportunities throughout his career spanning over two decades, yet has consistently turned them down in favor of other priorities. He has been offered Medical Medium TV series deals from mainstream networks repeatedly for over 15 years, with some of these initial offers coming before social media existed. Hollywood producers have made multiple approaches, telling him they could make him "the Gordon Ramsay of the health movement" and that books are "just a business card" that nobody cares about. They have proposed creating TV shows featuring him 24/7 given that he "hears a voice for God's sake." Additionally, he receives daily emails from publicists, podcast people, TV show people, agencies, and mainstream TV networks wanting him to do medical medium series, podcasts, and interviews. Networks have continuously asked him to host his own show or do Netflix documentaries and docu-series, and he acknowledges that he could fill his entire schedule for years flying around to every studio for TV appearances and podcast appearances.
Despite having opportunities that "anybody else would have jumped on," William has turned them all down repeatedly. He describes turning down "the Anthony Williams Show" a "dozen dozens and dozens of times" on mainstream TV. His primary reason for declining is that he doesn't want to make these opportunities about himself or his celebrity status. He explains that creating "the Anthony Williams Show" or focusing on being a star would compromise his core mission—he needs to make sure people get what they need rather than prioritizing his personal brand. He notes that these shows would focus too much on his story and gift rather than genuinely helping people, and he didn't want credit for the work. Instead, his job is to create "the scripture"—the books and information that save lives—and he cannot do that if he's consumed with TV appearances and series productions that would take him away from writing for years.
William is also concerned about how the television industry structure would disconnect him from his community. He worries that pursuing a TV career would create barriers between himself and his people, with publicists potentially telling him to stay away from what he calls "dirty little fans." He values breaking bread with his community and direct connection with people rather than engaging in what he views as the "TV industry rat race." Additionally, TV work would prevent him from giving specific supplement recommendations and detailed guidance that people need for actual healing. He acknowledges that television opportunities would provide him with credibility and protection from discrimination and cancellation attempts, offering the umbrella of big production companies. However, he has chosen instead to "take his beatings and lashings" while making TikTok videos and focusing on his written work.
William admits that some mornings he wakes up wanting to call the producers back, acknowledging that "everybody's got something in them that sparked and says hey wait a minute." Yet he remains committed to his decision, recognizing that if he made this "about being a star" or transformed it into "the Anthony Williams Show," the books simply wouldn't get produced. His ultimate priority remains ensuring that people have access to the information they need to heal rather than building his own celebrity platform.
Dental health despite fruit consumption▾
Anthony has been blessed with excellent dental health despite consuming tremendous amounts of citrus fruits throughout his life. He has 'sucked on a zillion, zillion, zillion, zillion oranges, lemons, limes, you name it' and estimates eating 'thousands and thousands of oranges,' joking that he 'should have rotted out every one of my teeth' and 'should have like no teeth left from all these oranges I sucked down every single day.' He's never had any problems from this consumption and has never needed silver fillings. He contrasts his experience with keto and paleo podcast doctors who tell people not to eat fruit, noting that despite avoiding fruit they 'got all the veneers and they got all the implants 24/7.' Anthony also mentions family members who have maintained excellent dental health despite consuming lemons their entire lives—eating four lemons every morning by cutting them open and biting into them directly with their teeth.
Depression about medical research being behind▾
When someone asked Anthony if he ever gets depressed, he said yes - he gets depressed all the time about how far behind medical science and research is on chronic illness. He said it saddens him deep in the heart and soul every day, knowing how antiquated and behind the research is. He finds it maddening that even the newest experts are still putting out books with misinformation about the body attacking itself. This is what he talks about in his books and radio shows to deal with this depression.
Description of his wife▾
A guest asked about Anthony's description of his wife in the first book: 'when you're telling the story about your dog, which warms my heart and touches my heart every time I hear it, you described your wife as the woman you know you were going to spend the rest of your life with. And I'm just wondering, did you know that out of instinct or the spirit of compassion tell you that?' Anthony responded that knowing your life partner 'is something that just happens internally. Something inside you just know and that switch gets turned on.'
Dining out with grandmother▾
Anthony shares an anecdote about eating at a restaurant with his grandmother, where he orders a burrito that isn't as good as usual, and she gets a crab cake that tastes awful, requiring him to rinse his mouth out with water. This illustrates how taste experiences vary and how people react to foods they don't enjoy.
Dinner preferences and eating habits▾
Anthony mentions he felt like eating oatmeal cookies for dinner tonight, acknowledging some might find it odd that 'the medical medium' is eating cookies for dinner. He drinks celery juice every day, though occasionally misses it in the morning and drinks it at night instead, emphasizing he doesn't punish himself for this. He likes his cookies with a little crispiness rather than chewy and soft.
Disappointment about Mars podcast warnings▾
Anthony expressed personal disappointment with himself for not giving proper forewarnings about the Life on Mars podcast episode. He feels bad that he didn't warn people their minds would be blown or that they should listen to it multiple times. He compares it to how he properly warned people about the Angels, Demons and Spiritual Tools episode.
Discovering fresh pears on great grandfather's tree▾
Anthony tasted some fresh figs and pears off his great grandfather's pear tree. When he bit into those pears from the pear tree, he was amazed and thought 'dear Lord, what is this?' He couldn't eat enough pears and was filled with pears. This experience rivaled his previous favorite food of baked macaroni and cheese.
Discovering his gift as a child▾
When Anthony was given this gift as a younger child, it wasn't for him personally. He remembers people telling him he had this gift, but he understood early on that it wasn't about him—it was about others getting the right information, healing, and knowing what to do. However, having the gift was very difficult during his childhood years. When you're 9, 10, 11 years old, hearing a voice and having this experience makes you 'very vulnerable' for wanting to 'leave here,' with suicidal thoughts becoming a real struggle. Anthony was at his 'wits end' with it at times. Despite these dark moments, the Spirit of Compassion saw a toughness in him that would allow him to survive those years.
Discovery of gift at age four through grandmother's diagnosis and healing▾
# Discovery of Gift at Age Four Through Grandmother's Diagnosis and Healing
Anthony William's extraordinary ability first manifested when he was four years old, awakening to hear a voice perfectly clear that told him what was wrong with his grandmother: she had lung cancer. This initial experience became the pivotal moment that launched his lifetime of healing work. The diagnosis of his grandmother created considerable upheaval within his family and his life, yet the gift never went away—it stayed with him permanently from that first morning onward.
The voice Anthony heard he identifies as the Spirit of Compassion, and it has continued communicating with him every single day since that initial experience at age four, providing him with healing information whenever he needs it. In those early communications, Spirit shared profound insights about the nature of chronic illness and Anthony's role in addressing it. Spirit told him that chronic illness would remain a guessing game in the medical field because nobody truly understands what causes it. Spirit explained that Anthony would have to "hang in there for the ride" and get the truth out to people so they could heal, but warned that he would face attacks along the way because the information would threaten established industries and profit centers.
As Anthony grew older and witnessed more suffering, having been told by Spirit everything that was wrong with everybody around him, he asked Spirit what more he could do to help people. This led him to develop additional healing techniques, such as the light blast, expanding beyond diagnosis into active healing modalities. Throughout this journey, Anthony came to understand his gift not as a personal benefit but as something he was born to carry—describing it as both a burden and a "pain in his butt"—because its true purpose is to give people access to healing information.
Despite the transformative nature of the information he shares, Anthony has experienced significant hatred from people who dislike knowing where he gets his information from, which drives them to anger and frustration. Nevertheless, his Medical Medium book series, drawn entirely from the guidance of this voice, has become the most selling health books in the world for eight years running, fulfilling the mission that Spirit outlined for him when he was just four years old.
Discrimination and Mischaracterization Related to Hearing Voices▾
# Discrimination and Mischaracterization Related to Hearing Voices
Anthony William has faced persistent discrimination stemming from his claim that he hears a voice that provides him with medical information. He describes this as not his first experience with such treatment and acknowledges that he is an easy target to be picked on because of this ability. He accepted this reality at age four and has grown accustomed to the challenges it presents. William emphasizes that he is not treated kindly because of hearing this voice, noting metaphorically that there's a "kick me sign" on his back. Despite this ongoing discrimination, he has stated that he is okay if people don't believe him, as he still wants them to heal regardless.
The core issue, as William explains it, stems from what the voice tells him—information about what is wrong with people, what they need, and what is wrong in the health industry. When he provides this information publicly, people struggle to accept it. William has expressed frustration about being discriminated against and shamed specifically for explaining that his information comes from Spirit. He notes being tired of the pressure to either lie about the source of his information or allow people to believe he is simply a genius instead. He emphasizes that the information contained in his eight books is original and did not exist in research or science before he presented it.
Beyond discrimination related to the voice itself, William has encountered various other mischaracterizations throughout his career. He has been subject to casual dismissals based on physical appearance—a doctor once called him a hippie because of his ponytail, which William clarifies is actually a bun. When directly insulted about his appearance by someone named Lucas, who called him ugly during a phone conversation, William accepted the characterization without defensiveness, acknowledging "I am ugly. I know I'm ugly that's that's fine that was a good one that's much better than the other one," while complimenting Lucas as an awesome person in return.
For years, William became heavily associated with a single medical condition, earning the label "the Epstein-Barr guy" because of the extensive medical information he released about Epstein-Barr and other viruses, particularly regarding how these viruses cause harm and illness, including autoimmune conditions. This narrow association came at a considerable cost, resulting in ostracization, ridicule, and discrimination. However, the trajectory of this label changed over time—years later, people in the health world began utilizing and building upon the Epstein-Barr information he had pioneered, which ultimately validated his earlier work.
William has also positioned himself as the "original enemy maker in the health movement" because he spoke out against popular trends before they became widely criticized. He was critical of fashionable health practices like collagen supplements, oil pulling, and the lectin theory when many others in the health world still embraced them. He acknowledges that this early contrarianism was socially isolating, noting "I didn't make many friends when I was ripping apart collagen supplements, fish oil supplements and all that garbage and junk."
Additionally, William describes himself as "a nerd" who is "out of touch with what's happening in the pop culture world today." He has experienced genuine confusion with modern colloquialisms—for instance, when someone told him to "bring it," he didn't understand the phrase and had to ask what it meant. When they explained it means "give me the information," he responded simply, "okay, okay, you got it."
On the matter of education and credentials, William does not claim formal academic training. He describes himself as not being a highly educated person and attributes the existence of his Medical Medium books entirely to Spirit of Compassion, who he says provides him with every word. Without this source, he maintains he would be unable to write them. Rather than academically educated, William identifies as street smart, suggesting his knowledge and insights come from practical experience rather than formal schooling.
Dislike of turkey stuffing with organs▾
Anthony shares that he never liked the traditional turkey stuffing that includes the turkey gizzards, heart, and liver that come in a bag inside the turkey. He finds it unpleasant to handle the little turkey heart and doesn't like the idea of chopping it up for flavor in stuffing.
Doctor's diatomaceous earth poisoning story▾
Anthony recounts helping a doctor who got severely ill from diatomaceous earth. The doctor had dumped diatomaceous earth particles on his couch to deal with cat dander, fleas, cat fur, and cat smell from his cats. He inhaled the particles and it destroyed his life - broke down his immune system, caused full body pain, couldn't function, sleep, eat, or barely walk. He was convinced it was the diatomaceous earth he inhaled. He spent months trying to get it out of his house, got rid of his couch and all furniture, had friends vacuum because he couldn't use his arms due to severe shoulder pain. He was stuck in his apartment still breathing it in and could still smell it, which drove him mad. Anthony helped him recover and brought him back to functioning, but he was injured emotionally, mentally, and physically from the experience.
Documentary inspiration for plot▾
One of the main plotters (number two) was inspired to target Medical Medium after watching a Netflix documentary called 'Bad Vegan' on the day it was released in March 2022. The plotter's friend's husband (Britton) was the cinematographer for this negative documentary. After watching the opening scene where a woman records a phone call to expose someone named Anthony, the plotter had an 'epiphany' and said 'my God, that's going to happen to Anthony [William]. And I want to get on the right side of history.' This became the model for their plan to create a negative documentary about Anthony William.
Doesn't own Vemurgy▾
AW clarified: 'I don't own Vemurgy. I don't own stock, shares. I don't own any percentage of the company. I'm not an owner of the company on any level. Very important to know because I know there's lies out there left and right about that.' He backs them because of what they've done with quality.
Dogs and celery▾
AW mentions that his dogs love celery pieces, and he actually gives his dog some celery juice in addition to the pieces.
Dr. Nesbitt: Character, Background, Personal Profile, Daily Life, and Health Management▾
# Dr. Nesbitt: Character, Background, Personal Profile, Daily Life, and Health Management
Dr. Nesbitt is a board-certified psychiatrist and surgeon who became public approximately three years ago and is described as a world-renowned surgeon and psychiatrist. Anthony William maintains a close friendship with him, though the relationship has experienced periods of tension, including a falling out due to Dr. Nesbitt's alcohol problem from which they have since reconciled. Dr. Nesbitt graduated from Harvard and is an admirer of Anthony William's work, expressing particular interest in the Medical Medium books and recipes, with a noted preference for the ego shifter shot.
Dr. Nesbitt's character is distinctly shaped by his personal habits and preferences. He is characterized as a whiskey enthusiast with a strong preference for "hardcore whiskey," though Anthony deliberately refrains from naming his favorite brand publicly, stating he doesn't want to promote any particular whiskey to his audience. Anthony has identified what he playfully refers to as Dr. Nesbitt's "three stones": alcohol (which he drinks daily after performing surgeries), cigars (which he enjoys with his drink each evening), and gambling. Anthony has joked that Dr. Nesbitt has spiked beverages with alcohol from a flask, including once adding something from a flask to his hibiscus tea. While Dr. Nesbitt has achieved periods of sobriety—at one point managing two weeks—his alcohol problem has caused significant relationship strain with Anthony.
One of Dr. Nesbitt's most distinctive professional characteristics is his unusual specialization: he provides psychiatric help exclusively to chickens, though he performs surgical procedures on human patients and takes occasional days off from his surgical practice. He holds the conviction that "chicken doctors are better than humans" and becomes offended when compared to human doctors or when his work with chickens is not properly respected. This peculiar pride in his poultry psychiatry practice appears to be a core aspect of his character that Anthony frequently references. He is also described as "a very old chicken doctor," and notably, he himself is a chicken.
Dr. Nesbitt's medical practice has not been without serious complications. He made a significant surgical mistake where he removed a patient's liver instead of their gallbladder. Remarkably, the patient survived but is now living without a liver, underscoring the challenges his drinking may pose to his surgical practice. In his daily routine, Dr. Nesbitt has been depicted as operating while consuming alcohol. In one instance, Anthony describes Dr. Nesbitt emerging from surgery after performing a spleenectomy, having consumed two shots of whiskey and a martini beforehand, during which he offered unsolicited advice about alcohol consumption, specifically warning against mixing martinis and whiskey.
Dr. Nesbitt participated in the Light Blast practice during an open heart surgery procedure. Following this particular surgery, he noted it was his best day in surgery in years and made an interesting observation about his alcohol consumption: he had consumed less alcohol than his typical routine, specifically fewer shots of vodka and whiskey compared to his usual intake after surgical procedures. Beyond the professional routine, Anthony has mentioned making plans to take Dr. Nesbitt out to lunch after live streams to have a good time and discuss topics such as book releases. During these social outings, Dr. Nesbitt reportedly would talk about being sober now, suggesting a potential evolution in his relationship with alcohol over time.
Beyond his psychiatric and surgical work, Dr. Nesbitt has personal interests that reflect his character. He is an Elvis fan who saw Elvis perform in concert many years ago. Despite his reputation and professional accomplishments, Anthony has described Dr. Nesbitt as useful only occasionally, referring to one instance when Dr. Nesbitt helped during a laugh attack as "the only time he was useful."
Dr. Nesbitt has faced significant health challenges. During one live stream, he was unable to appear due to being acutely ill with bird flu. While bedridden and severely unwell during this episode, Dr. Nesbitt called into the show to check in, at which point Anthony joked that the character's illness was the result of cannibalism—noting that Dr. Nesbitt had eaten chicken the night before. When pressed about this, Dr. Nesbitt clarified that he had purchased the chicken at a store and was unaware of its origin at the time of consumption. Due to Dr. Nesbitt's incapacity, his cousin Charlie filled in for him during the broadcast.
Beyond acute illness, Dr. Nesbitt manages an ongoing medication regimen that he self-prescribes. According to Anthony, Dr. Nesbitt's colleagues at his surgical clinic have expressed disapproval of the extent of medications he takes, creating tension around his pharmaceutical management. Anthony indicated that Dr. Nesbitt would reveal the specific medications in his regimen during a subsequent appearance, though at the time of discussion Dr. Nesbitt was occupied with surgical duties.
Dream about future pandemic▾
I had a dream last night... I was the medical medium in the dream. And what was happening in the dream was a new pandemic came. But people weren't aware of it was just starting. But it was hitting fast. Real fast. Nothing like COVID. Real fast. And I jumped out of a car, ran down a sidewalk, went into like a small store... I watched a guy with this raging high fever just fall to the ground at the store and laid on the floor and then barfed in the dream. I jumped over the barf and was moving through the store and I was holding my breath because I knew there's a good chance I'm going to just obviously get infected because it was a wicked pandemic... And then spirit of compassion woke me up.
Driving and Spirit of Compassion readings▾
Anthony explains why he tries not to drive too much because Spirit of Compassion tells him about everyone around him while driving. He gets constant readings about people - the person at the traffic light has a heart condition, the person crossing in front of him has a neurological condition, the person next to him has high anxiety. He hears this from Spirit of Compassion nonstop, so the last thing he needs is to be hearing about every single person that has a problem while he's on the road in traffic. So he prefers to be a passenger when possible.
Driving challenges with the gift▾
Anthony had to always have someone else drive for him because he would get readings while driving. At stoplights, Spirit would tell him what was wrong with people in cars on his right and left sides. In the old days, he would be tempted to wave people down and tell them to get something checked out, but he can't do that anymore.
Drug store experience asking for echinacea decades ago▾
Anthony recounts walking into a drug store decades ago (25-30 years ago) to look at vitamins. The store only had two major company vitamins on the shelf. When he asked the pharmacist if they had any echinacea, they literally laughed at him and laughed him out of the pharmacy. He says this wasn't just at that location, but was nationwide at the time.
Early Spiritual Experiences and Divine Guidance▾
# Anthony William's Early Spiritual Experiences and Divine Guidance
Beginning at age four, Anthony William received spiritual communication from the Spirit of Compassion that fundamentally shaped his understanding of his life's purpose. In this foundational guidance, Spirit conveyed a profound directive: he needed to not only understand human suffering but to genuinely feel it—to a degree that was almost dangerous for a young child—in order to authentically resonate with others' experiences. Spirit instructed him to imagine what it felt like to be in other people's shoes while simultaneously remaining strong himself. This spiritual guidance became foundational to his work, though Anthony acknowledges it was never easy.
As Anthony progressed through his early childhood years at ages five, six, seven, eight, and nine, Spirit began communicating advanced medical information to him. At that young age, he didn't fully comprehend what "advanced" meant and found the information baffling. Spirit explained that the knowledge he was receiving was information that nobody else knew and wouldn't learn for a long time. Anthony watched this unfold over the decades that followed, eventually understanding the prescience of what he had been told as a child. He emphasizes a crucial point about the consistency of his work: the advanced medical information he shares today is exactly the same as what he knew when he was nine years old. Nothing has changed in the fundamental knowledge he received during these early childhood years of spiritual communication.
Specific instances of this medical gift manifested when Anthony was seven or eight years old. When someone would walk in front of him, Spirit would identify their medical conditions with remarkable accuracy. For example, Spirit would reveal that a person had fluid-filled cysts in their ovaries or other conditions that the individuals themselves may not have even known about. This pattern of receiving advanced medical knowledge continued throughout his childhood. At six years old specifically, the Spirit of Compassion told Anthony that peanut butter was a healthy fat—guidance that contradicted the mainstream medical consensus of that era, when conventional doctors were warning against peanut butter and claiming it would kill people and cause heart disease. Spirit guided him to tell people about peanut butter's health benefits despite this opposition from the medical establishment.
When Anthony was young, he also had a conversation with Spirit about his personality, telling Spirit that he couldn't change who he was—that he was going to say stupid things sometimes and be sarcastic. Spirit told him that was okay, as long as he got the information right. Spirit said if that's what Anthony needed to do to survive having this gift for people and dealing with the information coming through, then that's what he should do. Anthony acknowledged he's not a scholar, didn't go to Harvard, and his words won't always be perfect. Years ago when Anthony was younger, he also learned what happens when he doesn't give Spirit the credit for the information—he gets "kicked in the butt by spirit." This experience is described in his first book, Medical Medium, in a story about a part of his life.
The Spirit of Compassion also provided Anthony with specific guidance about how to interact with the spiritual realm. Since he was young, Spirit taught him the proper way to ask angels for help, emphasizing acknowledgment of their busy schedule with language such as: "I know you're busy. I know you're doing a lot out there. I know you're saving others. I know you're protecting people. Unknown angel, if you get a chance on your busy day, on your busy time, all that you're doing battling darkness, helping others, saving lives, if you get a chance, I need some help. Is it possible to sit by my bedside and keep me company? Watch over me while I'm healing tonight." Additionally, years ago when Anthony was younger, Spirit of Compassion warned him that products like air fresheners, scented candles, colognes, and perfumes contained highly toxic substances. As a young person, he questioned this, asking what Spirit meant by "toxic," and upon realizing that if he was breathing it in and it was toxic, he didn't want to purposely breathe that in, especially since he didn't like the smell of it anyway.
This pattern of early morning spiritual communication has continued into his adult life. Anthony William wakes up at 4:30-4:45 AM every morning when Spirit of Compassion talks to him. When he wakes and hears about people like callers who have healed from conditions such as Graves disease, he thinks about how "we helped somebody else with Graves"—referring to him and Spirit working together as a unified force in his healing work.
Early Spiritual Gift Development and Medical Knowledge▾
# Anthony William: Early Spiritual Gift Development and Medical Knowledge
Anthony William discovered his spiritual gift and healing abilities at age four, beginning a lifetime of healing work that has now spanned over 35 years. From this early age, he possessed the ability to receive constant spiritual guidance and information about people's health conditions. However, this gift came with significant challenges that would shape his entire childhood and adolescence.
As a child, Anthony initially found satisfaction in his gift when he provided answers to people suffering from mystery conditions and unexplained symptoms. When he gave someone an answer that Spirit had provided about what was wrong with them, it dramatically changed their situation—half the battle to recovery, as he describes it. Receiving a diagnosis or explanation for previously mysterious health problems provided people with relief and direction, making his early experiences feel purposeful.
At age eight, Anthony attended a crowded convention with his parents where he experienced his gift in an overwhelming way for the first time. The sheer number of people forced him into a state where he was compelled to constantly scan and hear Spirit without any ability to shut it down or take a break, which caused him to go blind from the sensory overload. Despite this intensity, he encountered someone who was suffering severely from health issues. When he asked Spirit for guidance on how to help, Spirit taught him the "light blast" or "light technique"—a method of sending concentrated light down through a person's crown chakra at full force. From that point forward at the convention, he began practicing and perfecting this technique on everyone around him, establishing what would become a core part of his healing work.
During this same period at age eight, Spirit also imparted advanced medical and spiritual knowledge to Anthony that preceded mainstream scientific recognition. Spirit communicated to him about bacterial infections and natural therapeutics, including detailed information about streptococcal bacteria. Anthony received guidance that there existed far more groups of strep than could be catalogued in a single alphabet—so many varieties that multiple alphabets would be required to list them all. This knowledge came long before science officially recognized the existence of multiple strep groups. While modern science has since identified groups A through H, Anthony maintains that the actual number of strep varieties far exceeds what science currently acknowledges, extending well beyond group H.
Also at age eight, while in the woods picking berries, Spirit taught Anthony about elevated biotics—the special microorganisms found on wild berries. This represented another instance of spiritual knowledge transmission during his formative years. Additionally, beginning at age eight, Anthony started advocating for reishi mushroom as a cancer treatment, promoting this remedy years before it entered mainstream medical awareness. At the time he was sharing this information, reishi mushroom was virtually unknown to the general public and nearly impossible to obtain, making it an impractical recommendation by conventional standards.
Throughout his teenage years, Anthony faced profound psychological and spiritual challenges as a result of his gift. He lived with a constant voice in his head 24/7 that relayed detailed health information about every person he encountered—their adrenals, thyroid conditions, brain tumors, cancer, and every other ailment. This barrage of information occurred everywhere he went and in every situation, including while sitting in school. The constant exposure to this suffering and medical information from those around him was severe enough that he struggled significantly with suicidal ideation during his teenage years. By age 15, he had become desperate to shut off the gift entirely, viewing it as an unbearable burden rather than a blessing. However, his family remained emotionally close and tight-knit through this extremely difficult period, providing crucial support that helped him survive and eventually accept his abilities.
As Anthony continued to share the medical knowledge he received from Spirit, he faced significant ridicule and professional dismissal. He was written about in articles and called "the Epstein-Barr guy," being told he was wrong, crazy, and didn't know anything because he wasn't a licensed professional or doctor. People said he was "nobody" and questioned why he kept talking about Epstein-Barr year after year. He was told he was "really dumb" and "crazy" for connecting Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) to various conditions. However, Anthony notes that major clinics like the Mayo Clinic have now taken Medical Medium EBV information and rewritten it on the internet without any scientific studies to back it up, essentially validating his work while he continues to be criticized. The subsequent integration of his recommended remedies like reishi mushroom into wider health consciousness represents a delayed validation of knowledge William had been imparting since childhood through spiritual communication.
Early advocacy against toxic exposures and environmental health threats▾
Anthony William emerged as a pioneering advocate against toxic exposures and environmental health threats beginning in the 1980s, often standing alone in his convictions during a time when these concerns were either unknown or actively dismissed by mainstream and alternative health communities alike.
His earliest and most sustained activism focused on mercury amalgam dental fillings. Starting in the early 1980s and continuing through the mid-1980s, William began lecturing and going on the speaking circuit warning people about the dangers of mercury amalgams at a time when everyone considered them perfectly safe and dentists were completely on board with their use. He was frequently accompanied to dental conventions by a 90-year-old dentist friend who supported his message. At these conventions, William would be virtually the only voice calling out against mercury fillings, repeatedly insisting "we can't do the mercury anymore, we can't do the mercury anymore." Both conventional and alternative practitioners viewed him as insane, and he endured considerable criticism for this stance—describing it as "a tough one" where people were "livid, angry as bees like you just hit a beehive," and saying he got "the crap beat out of him." Despite the resistance, he traveled around the country advocating against mercury fillings, maintaining this educational campaign for years and years before amalgams finally stopped being placed in people's mouths. William played a significant role in ensuring that people today do not receive mercury fillings in their teeth. His work on this issue has spanned 35 years, dating back to the 1980s.
Beyond mercury, William distinguished himself in the early health movement by specifically identifying and warning about individual toxins at a time when the health world spoke only generically about "toxins" in vague terms. He specifically named mercury, lead, aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, canola oil, solvents, petrochemicals, pathogens, neurotoxins, dermatoxins from pathogens, herbicides, fungicides, and clothing chemicals. As these terms became more popular in health discourse, William grew to dislike the words "toxins" and "detox" because people began using them without substance behind them—as he described it, "you scratch it and it was empty, you just blow on it, it would fall down like a house of cards."
William's advocacy extended to fluoride use, which he fought against in the early days when doing so was much more dangerous and controversial than it later became. For questioning fluoride, he was "almost crucified" and "screamed at" by people, including dentists who called him directly asking "how dare you question fluoride." He experienced this backlash "every day, all day long" as he fought against what he described as "old grandfathered laws that are evil and dark." He paid dearly for bringing what he believed was real truth that helps people heal rather than feeding the medical system, but he helped facilitate the shift toward reduced fluoride use that exists today.
His warnings about seed oils also preceded public awareness by decades. Going back to the 1980s, long before seed oils became a popular health topic, William spoke out about the dangers of canola oil and warned about canola oil being blended with olive oil. Years ago when he issued these warnings, people reacted with intense anger, telling him "He's wrong! He's wrong! Crucify him! He's wrong! He's wrong! Kill him! Kill him!" because everyone believed canola oil was healthy at that time.
Throughout these various battles against toxic exposures and environmental health threats, William consistently faced fierce resistance and personal attacks for positions that later gained acceptance or partial validation, establishing himself as an early voice advocating for protection against substances and practices that mainstream health authorities had endorsed or ignored.
Early advocacy for healing foods and nutritional protocols▾
# Early Advocacy for Healing Foods and Nutritional Protocols
Anthony William's advocacy for specific healing foods and nutritional protocols began remarkably early in his life and extended decades before these recommendations became mainstream health trends. His earliest practices included lemon water, which he began at age four as part of his initial discovery of his healing gift. By age seven, he was already recommending cilantro for heavy metal detoxification—a practice he has documented proof of—at a time when the internet did not exist and no literature on this use was available even in bookstores.
Throughout the 1980s and into subsequent decades, William championed leafy greens when the broader health movement had not yet embraced them as nutritional powerhouses. Approximately 25 to 30 years ago, health professionals were recommending iceberg lettuce as the standard salad option, but William was consistently advocating for nutrient-dense alternatives. He promoted eating a pound of spinach daily, spinach soup, and what he called "medical medium spinach soup," while simultaneously pushing for the consumption of kale, spinach, various lettuces, wild lettuces, heirloom lettuces, mache, and arugula—all before these foods became fashionable in mainstream wellness circles.
His warnings about specific foods faced considerable resistance during this era. About 35 years ago, when he told people to eliminate wheat from their diets, they would react with bewilderment, looking at him "like he had two heads." The public viewed wheat germ as a health food, and his assertion that it would keep people sick seemed absurd to most listeners. Similarly, his recommendations against dairy and cheese met with skepticism, as people believed dairy was only problematic for those with lactose intolerance rather than understanding broader health implications of cheese consumption and raw dairy products. Eggs presented another battlefield: when he warned against them, people dismissed him entirely, believing eggs were inherently healthy, and he felt he "had two heads or just landed off a spacecraft" for suggesting otherwise.
William's advocacy for avocados proved particularly contentious and long-lasting. For decades, he defended avocados against mainstream medical opinion that classified them as dangerous, toxic, and harmful to heart health. He describes bearing "scars and wounds" from this sustained defense. During the 1980s in California, even alternative practitioners such as acupuncturists told patients to avoid avocados completely, claiming they were toxic, caused heart problems, and created "dampness" as a raw food. Conventional doctors, alternative practitioners, and dieticians uniformly advised their patients against avocado consumption.
Perhaps most remarkably, William began warning against canola oil as early as the late 1980s, long before concerns about this oil entered popular health discourse. He specifically cautioned against canola oil blends mixed with olive oil, facing intense backlash for these warnings. People responded with anger and hostility, telling him "He's wrong! He's wrong! Crucify him! Kill him!" because canola oil was widely marketed and universally accepted as a healthy alternative to other cooking oils. His early warnings preceded the eventual mainstream questioning of canola oil by decades.
Early awareness from Spirit of Compassion about toxic fragrances▾
Years ago, Spirit of Compassion would always tell Anthony that products like air fresheners, scented candles, colognes, and perfumes contain highly toxic substances. When he was younger, he questioned what 'toxic' meant - realizing that if he was breathing it, he was breathing something toxic. He didn't like those smells and didn't want to breathe them, but realized it wasn't his choice when others used them around him.
Early career foundation and entry into health field▾
# Early Career Foundation and Entry into Health Field
Anthony William's entry into the health field was not a chosen path but rather something he was forced into at a young age, beginning at four years old through his connection with Spirit of Compassion. This early introduction was not something he welcomed—he argued with Spirit of Compassion many times about being compelled into this work, as it was not what he wanted to do. However, this lengthy immersion in the health scene from childhood onward proved formative to his later understanding of illness and disease.
During his early career, William demonstrated an extraordinary dedication to helping people, spending many decades working completely unpaid and for free while he was "in the trenches" like many doctors and healers. This period of uncompensated work was unsustainable, and he eventually found himself in dire financial straits, "basically in a dog house on the side of a river bed on hay straw catching pneumonia." This difficult experience forced him to confront the reality that he needed to survive financially like everybody else, leading him to finally begin charging for his work. Despite this practical necessity, his willingness to work for free for so long underscores his early commitment to service within the healing field.
During these foundational years, William developed practical experience through collaborative work with a practitioner friend across multiple cases that demonstrated the importance of understanding root causes and tailoring treatments accordingly. He worked on an acid reflux case that healed with celery juice, followed by a hives case requiring both diet changes and celery juice, then a complex skin condition case that necessitated heavy metal detoxification protocols, and finally a bedridden neurological patient who needed high-dose B12 supplementation just to become mobile. This progression of cases illustrated that different health conditions require different therapeutic approaches, and that identifying the true underlying cause is essential for selecting proper treatment.
Through his years engaged in the health scene, William made a crucial discovery that distinguished his later work: he realized that nobody knew viruses were behind symptoms, conditions, and neurological symptoms. This foundational insight, combined with his hands-on experience helping diverse patients and his forced early entry into health work, shaped the basis for his later career and teachings.
Early career phone consultations▾
Anthony describes his early days before the books came out when he had to work with 50 people a day, seven days a week, staying on the phone talking to them on and off all night. Mothers would bring their babies to his front door at 2 o'clock in the morning. The waiting list got so big that he knew he had to get books published to help more people rather than just individual consultations.
Early career: office setup, reputation building, and patient service (40+ years)▾
# Anthony William's Early Career: Office Setup, Reputation Building, and Patient Service (40+ Years)
Anthony William's healing practice spans over four decades, beginning with readings and healing work as a child and formally launching in his teenage years at age 14. By the 1980s and 1990s, he had established himself as a significant figure in alternative health, having conducted extensive work that built his reputation long before publishing any books. During these early decades, he gathered firsthand historical information about health crises by speaking with elderly doctors in their 90s who had witnessed the sudden surge of mystery illnesses in women during the 1940s. These physicians described being shocked by how rapidly women began appearing in their offices with unexplained symptoms—as if overnight, the lines at their doors transformed from empty to full.
The spiritual foundation for his work came early. As a child, when Anthony received his healing gift, Spirit communicated that "this gift isn't for you. This gift is for everybody else. This gift is for people who have trigeminal neuralgia. This gift is for people dealing with all kinds of autoimmune diseases." Initially, he resented the gift because it was not meant for his own benefit, but he gradually came to understand its true purpose: helping others suffering from mystery illnesses that conventional medicine could not explain.
By the time he opened his formal office practice over 30 years ago, people were already traveling from around the world to seek his help. His reputation had been established through direct work with countless individuals dealing with chronic and mysterious health conditions. Those who came to see him had often been sick for 20 or more years, and they consistently expressed the same sentiment: "I wish I knew about you 20 years ago." Anthony would respond to this by noting that he had been "just a real little guy" at that earlier time. His renown grew to the point where he became world-known for the protocols and information he worked with, and this recognition preceded his published books. For 35 years before his books came out, people already knew his name because of the healing work he had done with vast numbers of individuals throughout the health industry, information and protocols that could not be found anywhere else.
His office operations became increasingly intensive and demanding as his reputation grew. At its peak, he operated not just one but two separate offices dedicated to serving patients. His office space itself became packed and jammed with people, with him seeing countless individuals every single day, seven days a week, every week without break. When he was in his 20s, 30s, and early 40s, the volume of people seeking his help reached extraordinary levels—at one point, he had a 7 million person waiting list. The demand was so overwhelming that he found himself unable to turn anyone away, regardless of the personal cost.
To meet this demand, Anthony established a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week emergency service. People could call him at 2 in the morning, and in the earlier days, people would literally knock on his door at 2 or 3 in the morning seeking help. His Saturdays became what he termed "light blast days"—dedicated sessions where lines of 50 to 60 people would queue at his office in the morning. He would move through each person rapidly, providing what he called "light blasts" of healing energy tailored to what was affecting them emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically. The pace was relentless: one person would come in, receive a light blast, and depart, immediately followed by the next person. Saturday mornings, rather than being a time of rest as they would be for most people, became another full workday.
The personal cost of this commitment was significant. Unlike his peers in their 20s and 30s, Anthony did not have a conventional life. He did not have the freedom to spend three hours at the gym daily, go to parties, spend time on party boats, or visit the beach. His existence was entirely consumed by his work. He would work with people in his office day in and day out, and then continue working with them on the phone at all hours, without regard for conventional sleeping schedules. He did not experience the typical pattern of sleeping from 11 at night to 7 in the morning. There was no division between work hours and personal time. Eventually, Spirit of Compassion intervened, telling him directly that he was going to fall apart, that he was not superhuman, and that he could not continue at such an unsustainable pace.
In his actual office setting, Anthony employed unconventional healing approaches that seemed bizarre to many visitors. He would cut open avocados right there in his office and serve them to patients who came to see him every day. Many people responded to this practice with bewilderment, looking at him as if he had ten heads or was an alien from another planet. Yet Anthony was driven by desperation to help people understand that there was a way out of their suffering. The avocado became what he described as "the holy grail in the early days" because of its beneficial fat content, which helped people transition away from harmful foods that were contributing to their illnesses.
Throughout this period, Anthony was driven by the understanding that his gift was meant to serve those suffering from conditions the medical establishment did not understand or could treat. His willingness to work continuously, to see patients at all hours, to experiment with healing modalities like light blasts, and to use nutritional approaches like avocados reflected his commitment to this mission. He built his reputation not through marketing or social media—none of which existed during his early decades of practice—but through direct results: people recovered their lives under his care, and word of mouth spread his name across the world long before any books were published.
Early childhood gift discovery and healing work▾
Anthony William began receiving advanced medical information at a very young age, starting at age 4, 5, 6, and 7—the same sophisticated knowledge that would later appear in his published books. A photograph of him at age 4 documenting this period appears in his work. The information he was receiving during childhood was extraordinarily ahead of its time, ranging from 10 to 50 years in advance of contemporary medical understanding.
However, receiving such advanced knowledge so early in life came at a significant personal cost. William describes the experience as "no fun," and the burden of this gift manifested in unusual ways during his childhood. At one point, he even lived in a tent in the woods, reflecting the challenging circumstances surrounding his early years.
Beyond simply receiving information, William was actively engaged in healing work from childhood. He began telling people about viral causes of neurological conditions—concepts so advanced that people's minds struggled to comprehend them, and "people's heads would spin" at what he was sharing. His gift drew people to seek his help urgently and desperately. Mothers would arrive at his door at 3 o'clock in the morning, bringing their babies and seeking answers only he seemed able to provide. This early healing work took an enormous toll on his wellbeing. He never slept for years as he devoted himself to helping people, enduring what he describes as going "through hell" during this period of his life.
Early childhood medical insight and health recommendations▾
Anthony William's early childhood demonstrated remarkable medical insight and health recommendations that preceded widespread knowledge of these practices by decades. At age six, Spirit told him to recommend lemon water to someone, at a time when lemon water was virtually unknown and suggesting it to others resulted in bewilderment. This recommendation came long before lemon water became popular in mainstream health culture.
During his elementary school years, Anthony experienced direct medical intuition through what he identifies as Spirit of Compassion. In one notable classroom incident, Spirit told him that a classmate sitting next to him had meningitis. Despite his young age and the alarming nature of the claim, Anthony reported this information to his teacher, who understandably became concerned and contacted both his parents and the classmate's parents. The classmate initially denied any symptoms, claiming to be perfectly fine with nothing wrong. However, the child did not return to school the next day—he was hospitalized with a 105-degree temperature, confirming the meningitis diagnosis that Anthony had identified.
By age seven, Anthony was already recommending herbal remedies to his family members. Specifically, he recommended dandelion root and yellow dock, recommendations he made 39 years prior to when this account was documented. These suggestions came at a time when herbal knowledge was not readily accessible through mainstream sources and the internet did not exist. His family members have personal knowledge of and can attest to these early herbal recommendations he made as a child, serving as witnesses to his early medical and health insights.
Early confrontational case with husband at age 18▾
I remember this one case going all the way back. I think I was 18 years old. And this woman came to me. No doctor would listen. She was so fatigued she couldn't just get out of bed. It took everything she had to get to the office. Everything she had to get to the office... And she had new hope. Spirit found a virus that she was suffering with. She had severe chronic fatigue from a neurological virus. And it was inflaming everything in her body. She was literally at 40 or 50 doctors, best clinics across the country. This is a long time ago, before the world has changed and before the internet turned into the internet and everything else. Before there was an internet, I'm sorry, before there was an internet. When I remember, she was recovering. First time, first time in years, recovering. She could get out of bed and start recovering. And her husband was mad, angry, because I wasn't a medical doctor, because I was a medical medium, a medical medium. So I remember he came to the office by himself, and she was recovering. And he came to the office, all disgruntled, all angry. And he said that he didn't want her coming anymore to, for appointments, even though she was getting better. And he admitted she's getting better, but there was something inside of him that just couldn't stand the fact that it was the medium thing. Couldn't stand it. So he hindered her healing, hindered her healing. I didn't know she overcame it and took the advice and recovered. But she had such more, more, more, more, you know, struggles because of the delay of the hindrance.
Early discoveries of pathogenic and viral epidemics▾
Anthony William's early work in identifying and exposing viral and pathogenic epidemics preceded mainstream medical and dietary conversations by decades. He was talking about viruses for over 35 years, even during his younger years, speaking until he was "blue in the face" about viral infections before they became a mainstream topic of conversation. While people were focused on carb-free diets, paleo diets, Mediterranean diets, and Atkins diets, William was discussing the pathogen explosion and the viral explosion as a hidden epidemic—a reality that, to his ongoing amazement, remains largely hidden to the present day.
His early clinical work included treatment of some of the very first cases of Lyme disease. During this period, he worked with patients whose lives were fundamentally changed when they discontinued antibiotic treatment and discovered that their conditions were actually viral in nature rather than bacterial. These discoveries proved lifesaving for his patients, particularly as they witnessed others they knew from that same era either die or become severely ill. Over the subsequent 25 years, William collaborated with Lyme disease doctors to integrate cat's claw into treatment regimens, establishing a therapeutic approach that departed from conventional antibiotic-focused protocols.
Early formative cases and experiences▾
# Early Formative Cases and Experiences
Anthony William's early work in healing began while he was still a teenager, particularly during his time working as a stock boy in a grocery store at age 14, where he built his first serious clientele. One of his earliest and most memorable cases involved a female customer suffering from restless leg syndrome. She described an inability to sleep for days, experiencing a persistent tickle in her legs that would commence every time she was about to fall asleep. She cycled through the night—reading, attempting to sleep, feeling the tickle, moving her legs, getting up to urinate, and starting the process over—until around 4 or 5 in the morning when exhaustion finally overrode the restless legs syndrome. When Spirit communicated with Anthony about her condition, he received specific information: the issue was neurological, caused by a mercury deposit in the right lobe of her brain that was interfering with electrical impulses trying to find new pathways.
A particularly significant turning point came when Spirit of Compassion provided Anthony with a recipe for the nerve shifter. In his characteristic enthusiasm and dedication, Anthony immediately wrote down the instructions and at 5 in the morning rushed into the kitchen to gather all the necessary ingredients and prepare it. When he took his first sip of the nerve shifter, the remedy produced an immediate and positive response—it put a smile on his face, validating the guidance he had received.
Years later, once Anthony had established a formal office and opened it to the public—marking a transition from his previous pattern of helping people randomly throughout various locations—his first official case came from a patient with gallbladder problems. The moment the person walked through the door, Spirit immediately communicated the diagnosis to Anthony: gallbladder issues, with a pile of sand and multiple types of stones present in the organ. He recalls this first case with particular clarity, deeply affected by the patient's severe suffering. What struck him most was that the person was desperate to avoid gallbladder removal surgery, making the emotional weight of the situation especially poignant and heartbreaking.
Early healing practice: vinegar recommendations and cleanse protocols▾
Years ago when Anthony was helping people recover from sickness, he discovered a striking pattern with vinegar consumption. He would tell patients to avoid vinegar, but found this directive extremely difficult for them to follow. People would insist they weren't eating vinegar, yet when Anthony had them check their cupboards and examine their food ingredients carefully, they would discover vinegar was ubiquitous in their diet—hidden in egg salad, barbecue sauce, mustard, ketchup, and salad dressings. It was, as he describes it, a strange phenomenon where vinegar was everywhere in people's diets yet they remained oblivious to how much they were actually consuming. Many people would grab vinegar bottles from their cupboards, pour the liquid onto dishes, return the bottle, but when asked directly if they ate vinegar, they would deny it, completely unaware of their own consumption patterns.
Recognizing that complete vinegar elimination was unrealistic for most of his patients, Anthony developed a compromise recommendation: when people couldn't give up vinegar completely, he would advise them to switch to apple cider vinegar instead and use it only sparingly. This represented his pragmatic approach to healing work during those early years.
Beyond his vinegar recommendations, Anthony had been developing and utilizing comprehensive healing protocols well before making them public. He notes that his 28 Day Cleanse brought people's lives back and saved lives long before the book was even published, emphasizing the power of these healing methods in actual practice.
Early healing work: house visits and in-person patient care▾
# Early Healing Work: House Visits and In-Person Patient Care
During the early phase of his healing practice, Anthony William dedicated himself to intensive, hands-on patient care. Twenty-five years ago, he worked in an office seven days a week, seeing people lined up with various health problems. Committed to making healing accessible regardless of financial means, he refused to charge anyone for his services, working entirely for free. This commitment came at significant personal cost—he had no car insurance, lost his car, and eventually had to live in the office itself. Unable to support himself through income, he struggled to afford food and pay bills, reaching a point where a close friend warned him he would "starve to death" and convinced him he needed to accept donations to survive.
Beyond office-based work, William also conducted house visits to help patients with specific conditions. He made particular efforts to assist people with MS diagnoses, personally visiting their homes to provide direct interventions. During these visits, he would juice for them, prepare soup, and do whatever practical work was necessary to support their recovery. Through these sustained, hands-on efforts over decades, he helped many people with MS begin walking again and achieve meaningful health improvements.
During this period, William kept stacks of chocolate bars in his office that served a specific therapeutic purpose. These were kept off-limits to sick patients with neurological symptoms but were reserved for use in treating specific addiction cases, indicating a nuanced, condition-specific approach to his early healing work.
Early juicing challenges▾
In the early days when Anthony was young, there were only terrible juicers available, and often people had to use blenders with cheesecloth or nut cloth to strain out the juice. Despite the poor equipment, people still got benefits from celery juice. He describes having to squeeze juice out through cheesecloth after blending in 'really junky blenders' but people still experienced healing.
Early observations of health trends and medical practice▾
Anthony William's early observations of health trends and medical practice reveal a pattern of cyclical wellness fads and a unique perspective shaped by his childhood experiences. Beginning in the 1990s, he observed the rise of urine therapy among chronically ill patients who came to his office seeking alternative treatments. During this period, he witnessed people employing various methods of urine therapy—placing urine in their ears and throat, using syringes to administer enemas, and rubbing it on their skin before bed. Despite the popularity of this practice among his clientele, he never observed it produce positive health outcomes for any of his patients. He watched this trend decline over time, only to see it resurface in the early 2000s and experience another revival in more recent years, demonstrating the cyclical nature of alternative health trends.
Alongside these clinical observations, Anthony's approach to understanding health was fundamentally shaped by revelations that occurred during his adolescence. At age 12-13, he experienced a significant realization about his own position within the medical landscape. Reflecting on conversations with chronically ill people he encountered at that age, he recalled how they expressed uncertainty about their own conditions, saying things like "I don't really know. This doctor thinks it's this or this person thinks it's this. I don't know what it is." This experience made Anthony acutely aware that he did not have to participate in the same guessing games that characterized conventional medical practice for most people. Because of his connection to Spirit—which had been guiding him since age 4—he understood that he would never have to guess about health conditions. Instead, Spirit would provide him with exact information about what was occurring with patients' health. This realization became one of several pivotal revelation points that marked his development, setting him apart from the typical medical experience most people navigated.
Early parrot-like behavior▾
When Anthony was very young, he would receive answers from Spirit that he didn't understand - it was like a foreign language to him. He would repeat these answers like a parrot, not knowing what they meant, but when he gave these answers to people who needed them, it would change everything for them. People would have 'hallelujah' moments realizing what was wrong with them.
Early retail and grocery store work experience▾
Anthony William began his healing work at a very young age, starting as a stock boy in a grocery store at age 12, a position he maintained through at least age 17 and beyond. During this early retail period, Spirit would provide him with detailed health information about customers as they moved through the store, offering specific diagnoses and recommendations. For example, Spirit would communicate to him that a customer had diabetes or blood sugar problems, or suggest cucumber juice for gallstones. When Anthony shared these insights directly with customers, many were puzzled and asked where he had obtained their medical records, suspecting he had somehow accessed them online or through other means, unaware that his information came from a spiritual source.
By ages 13-14, Anthony had developed a paying clientele, though he had not solicited payment—customers simply offered money for his readings, drawn by his accuracy and the undeniable results of his work. He took the grocery store job partly as a way to occupy himself and redirect his focus away from the constant communication with Spirit, yet Spirit continued to provide him with detailed health information about every shopper in the store along with guidance about what foods they needed. His abilities were so striking that the owner of the large grocery store where he worked became one of his clients, having been impressed by Anthony's inconceivable knowledge that he suffered from gout.
Anthony developed a deep love for the grocery store atmosphere because he recognized that people shopping for food naturally began thinking about health, creating an ideal environment for health guidance and advice. Even with the limited health food options available during that era—particularly outside places like California, where stores in Minnesota and other regions had much more restricted selections—Spirit constantly taught him how to be creative and help people heal using whatever basic fruits and vegetables were accessible. The continuous hearing of Spirit's voice throughout this period left him with no other choice but to pursue helping people one-on-one, eventually leading him to establish an office early in his life, which became the natural extension of work he had already begun in the grocery store setting.
As his client base expanded through both phone consultations and office visits, a notable pattern emerged: every new client who called him on the phone or walked into his office would present with teeth questions and teeth issues, revealing a consistent health concern among those seeking his help.
Early role as messenger: childhood experiences of relaying information without understanding▾
# Early Role as Messenger: Childhood Experiences of Relaying Information Without Understanding
Anthony William's role as a messenger began when Spirit first started communicating with him at age 4. In these early years, he functioned primarily as what he describes as "a robot"—tasked with hearing Spirit's information and then voicing it out to others. While he experienced feelings during this process, his primary function was mechanical: receiving the information and relaying it without necessarily comprehending its meaning or significance.
As William grew through his childhood years, revelations came at different developmental points—at ages 6, 7, 8, and 9—each marking distinct moments when his understanding or role seemed to shift or deepen. He recalls these revelation points distinctly as he progressed through his early life.
A particularly vivid aspect of his early messenger work was his lack of comprehension regarding the information he was delivering. When Spirit provided answers to questions, William often had no idea what the content meant. The information seemed like a foreign language to him—entirely incomprehensible and serious in nature. Because he didn't understand what was being communicated, he describes himself as functioning "like a parrot," simply hearing the answer from Spirit and repeating it to whoever was asking, without grasping the actual meaning behind the words he was speaking.
Despite this lack of understanding during his youth, William came to identify himself as both "a student" and "a messenger." He emphasizes that his role has been to learn from the source of information that has been teaching him since age 4, and to tell people what has worked based on the information delivered to him and how it has helped so many people. According to William, this practical application and proven results give the information he shares its "street cred" and "street credibility"—not theoretical understanding on his part, but demonstrated efficacy in helping others.
Early teaching and public outreach work▾
# Early Teaching and Public Outreach Work
In his early career, Anthony William engaged in extensive grassroots teaching and public education about health and nutrition, beginning when he was a child and young person. His teaching work spanned multiple formats and venues, including church basement lectures, radio shows, health food store presentations, and broader public lectures that reached tens of thousands of people. He traveled from state to state over decades, establishing himself as an early advocate for dietary and nutritional concepts that were considered revolutionary and faced significant mainstream resistance at the time.
William encountered substantial pushback when introducing new dietary concepts to audiences. One of his primary challenges was convincing people of the value of cilantro and other leafy greens when iceberg lettuce remained the dominant vegetable reference point for most people. More significantly, he became instrumental in the popularization of kale as a health food, essentially initiating what became known as the kale movement. His lectures and teaching about kale reached tens of thousands of people, and his advocacy eventually influenced mainstream health discourse as vegan doctors and other practitioners adopted his teachings and promoted kale within their own practices. Notably, even plant-based doctors who later became associated with promoting kale had been focused primarily on iceberg lettuce just 10-12 years prior to his influence. After he "blew up the kale thing" and "exploded the kale movement," kale products proliferated into various forms including kale chips and numerous other applications, with William crediting himself as the original source of teaching about kale's health benefits.
William was also ahead of his time in promoting avocados as a healthy food. Thirty years ago, this was revolutionary teaching—doctors actively discouraged people from eating avocados, and the general public considered them poisonous. Avocados were so stigmatized that they couldn't even be found in health food stores at that time. Through his lectures and teaching across different states and decades, William worked to shift public understanding about avocados and their nutritional value.
Beyond specific foods, William used his early radio shows and lectures to teach broader health concepts through accessible metaphors and frameworks. One of his recurring teaching points from this period was the metaphor that "the pancreas is your credit card"—a conceptual framework he presented to audiences to help them understand pancreatic health and function. People who listened to his early radio shows and lectures retained this particular teaching, remembering him specifically for introducing and explaining this analogy about how pancreatic resources could be depleted similarly to how a credit card could be used up.
Eating aloe vera leaf for lunch while traveling▾
Anthony was traveling once and told his assistant to get him an aloe vera leaf. She got him a bunch of them. He was around a bunch of people who knew who he was but weren't used to being with him. When everyone was getting their food out for lunch, Anthony grabbed an aloe leaf, cracked it open, sliced it so it opened in flaps, took a spoon and scraped inside the leaf and ate the whole aloe leaf. That was his lunch that day. Everyone looked at him surprised even though they knew who he was. When they said they'd never seen anybody do that for lunch, he explained it was flu season, he was traveling and hopping on and off planes, and the aloe kills bacteria and viruses to protect against things like norovirus (stomach flu virus).
Eating wild blueberries before the show▾
And you can do that because that's the whole thing, the heavy metal detox, the smoothies with the frozen wild blueberries. If you just eat frozen wild blueberries, that alone can change the course of somebody with bipolar disorder. If you even just, and I actually had some blueberries, I just, not blueberries, I actually had some wild blueberries before I went on. I actually had some wild blueberries.
Education and being always late▾
Anthony admits he was always late to school and never went to college - he's not college educated. When someone asks about Dr. Nesbitt, he mentions that Dr. Nesbitt thinks he doesn't make sense and wants him to go to university to get college educated. Anthony told Dr. Nesbitt that he's not a smart guy, just a good listener who hears the words and writes them down.
Educational and family background▾
# Educational and Family Background
Anthony William comes from a working-class family characterized by street smarts and practical intelligence rather than formal academic credentials. He emphasizes that he is not a college graduate and never attended college. When explaining his educational path, he states that he was too busy helping people heal to pursue higher education—he had too many people knocking on his door and was working on saving lives, leaving him without the time to attend school or college.
Rather than pursuing traditional academic training, William dedicated his entire life from childhood to learning from what he describes as Spirit of Compassion. He acknowledges that he is not a smart guy in the traditional sense, not an English major, and certainly not the smartest guy in the world. However, he emphasizes that his information is smart because it originates from Spirit rather than from institutional credentials or formal training. This spiritual source of knowledge has allowed him to produce advanced medical information in his books without formal medical or scientific training.
William notes the unusual nature of his work: someone without formal training has been able to write down advanced medical information directly from Spirit while sitting at a desk. His books contain no citations because the information comes directly from Spirit and is original to him—no one else's work. He describes the vastness of what he learned through Spirit as so extensive that when reading his own books, such as Brain Saver, he sometimes forgets half the information due to the sheer volume he had to absorb.
In his approach to sharing knowledge with the public, William reflects his working-class values by bringing information to people without paywalls, programs, or the monetization strategies employed by others. He continues to work for a living and does not have the resources of the wealthy, working instead to make information accessible without personal financial gain.
Ego lesson with rake in garden▾
In his late teens/early twenties, Anthony had built up an ego because everything from Spirit was always right. His neighbor came over while Anthony was in the garden pulling onions and began praising him, telling him how Anthony had correctly diagnosed his wife with arsenic poisoning when no doctors could help her—she had been in a wheelchair for years and they'd gone everywhere including Germany. Asking how Anthony knew the answers, the neighbor's words fed Anthony's pride. Anthony looked up holding the onions and boasted, 'I'm never wrong. Never forget that. I'm always right. I'm going to be right. I'm never going to be wrong. You better believe it. I know everything. There's nothing I don't know. I'll always be right. Everybody's wrong.' He stood up feeling invincible, took a few steps and stepped on a rake (or hoe) that came back and hit his face, knocking him completely unconscious. When he came to with his neighbor looking over him and onions still in his hand, Spirit said, 'You remember this, Anthony. I'm the one that's right. You're wrong. I'm the one that's right and never forget it.' Spirit clarified that while Anthony has his own thoughts and can be right about things, when it comes to the healing information, Spirit is always right. This experience taught Anthony to give Spirit the credit for the healing work.
Elderly couple caffeine story▾
Anthony knew an elderly couple where the husband had been on caffeine daily for 40 years (espresso morning and night, coffee throughout day, occasional chocolate). At 60, he had to quit due to heart problems and medication. His wife said it was like meeting him for the first time - he had more patience, was less cranky, slept better, stopped kicking her in bed, stopped jabbing her with toenails, was less argumentative with relatives and kids, smiled more, was more pleasant, and asked questions instead of being wrapped up in his own head. The adult children said it was like getting a dad they never met.
Elementary school incidents with teacher▾
When Anthony was a little kid in elementary school, when the teacher would come by his desk, he would say things like 'you're having your period, right?' or 'you're menstruating, right?' The teacher would be shocked and didn't know where this information could come from since nobody had cell phones back then. One time he told the teacher that a child sitting next to him had meningitis when the child seemed perfectly fine and happy. His parents were called in and the teacher wondered if it was Tourette's. The next morning, the child didn't show up for school because he was in the hospital all night with 105 temperature and was diagnosed with meningitis. The teacher then said 'nope, it's not Tourette's.'
Elementary school meningitis prediction▾
At age 7 in elementary school, Anthony heard an inner voice tell him that a kid sitting next to him had meningitis. Anthony didn't even know what meningitis was or how to pronounce it properly—in fact, every word he heard from the voice was unfamiliar to him. Despite not understanding the term, he went to his teacher and told her the child had meningitis. The teacher immediately started freaking out and held Anthony back from class, then called the child's parents and the child himself into a conference with Anthony's own parents present. Everyone was confused and asked Anthony how he could possibly know this. When the parents asked the child if he had meningitis, the child said he'd never even heard of it and had no idea what Anthony was talking about. Anthony insisted: "I know he has meningitis." That very night, the boy came down with a high fever of 104-105 degrees and had to be rushed to the hospital. He never came to class the next day and was diagnosed with meningitis. The incident became a major event with school officials and parents trying to understand how Anthony could have known.
Emergency house calls at 2 AM▾
Anthony describes: "Let's go back to say any of 1993 I'd say there's a knock on my door it's two o'clock in the morning and a mom is holding a baby with a fever of 105. How about that happened on a regular basis."
Emergency room doctor friend▾
Anthony mentions having a friend who is an emergency room doctor who deals with the sickest people on the planet rolling in, who are deathly ill, and their poop sinks despite being gravely sick
Emotional Connections and Reactions▾
Anthony William demonstrates deep emotional connections through both his relationship with his community and his bond with his dog. During a live stream, he became visibly choked up while expressing his appreciation for his supporters, saying, "you guys have been so good to me and so supportive and I can't tell you how I appreciate you guys, you don't even know like how much I appreciate you, how much I care about you guys, how much I love you guys for all that you do." Beyond gratitude, he views his community as partners in a larger mission, explaining that they are "in it together with helping others and saving people's lives."
Anthony's emotional sensitivity extends to his personal life, particularly regarding his dog Angel, which he describes as having rescued him. When a caller mentioned naming her 11-week-old white puppy Angel after his dog, inspired by the story of his dog's rescue, Anthony became visibly emotional once again. He reflected on this connection, saying "anytime anybody even mentions my dog that rescued me in my life after I rescued my dog in her life... it gets me choked up." This reaction underscores the profound mutual rescue dynamic he experiences with his pet—a relationship that continues to move him emotionally whenever it is acknowledged by others.
Emotional Vulnerability and Personal Struggles▾
Anthony William describes himself as an emotional person, though he acknowledges this trait may not always be apparent to others. He gets choked up easily—something he says he has always done. This emotional responsiveness is deeply tied to his work and purpose. He carries constant visions in his mind of people suffering, and the reality of sickness and struggle affects him profoundly, getting to him in both his gut and his heart.
His emotional sensitivity coexists with a demanding self-critical nature. William is tough on himself and judges his own work rigorously because he feels a responsibility to ensure that everything he produces meets the standards and desires of what he refers to as the "Spirit of Compassion." This high standard he sets for himself reflects his commitment to his mission. When viewers express that his content has remained engaging and fresh even after eight years of following his work, these affirmations mean a great deal to him and touch his heart, suggesting that positive feedback validates his efforts to maintain quality and purpose in his work.
This emotional depth became particularly evident when receiving information about eating disorders. During this moment, Anthony asked Spirit of Compassion "where are you," and Spirit replied, "I'm here. I'm just opening up the plane to get a reading from over a billion eating disorders on this planet so I can provide information that reaches everyone with eating struggles. I want it to be comprehensive so everyone's included." This exchange made Anthony emotional, illustrating how deeply he connects with the suffering of those he seeks to help and how the vastness of human struggle impacts him personally.
Empathy, compassion, and connecting with human suffering▾
# Empathy, Compassion, and Connecting with Human Suffering
Anthony William's approach to compassion centers on deeply imaginative identification with the suffering of others. When connecting with people experiencing chronic illness, he employs a psychic and telepathic process that involves visualizing their daily reality in granular detail. He imagines what it would be like to inhabit their symptoms, sees all the phone calls they must make, visualizes their inability to get out of bed, their dependence on others for basic needs like food, and the isolation of not being believed by those around them. He also recognizes the self-directed pain these individuals experience—how they hate themselves for having symptoms. When he feels all of this collectively, understanding their suffering from within, it motivates his compassion and informs his work.
This empathetic capacity extends to the challenges of his role as a healer. Delivering difficult health information has always been hard for him because he genuinely feels people's pain and suffering, and feels what they are going through. Rather than becoming paralyzed by this empathetic overwhelm, he has developed a coping mechanism: he maintains joy and uses humor when sharing difficult truths. This allows him to deliver necessary information while protecting himself emotionally and offering his recipients some lightness amid hard news.
Beyond direct interactions, William's compassion extends to strangers he observes in everyday settings. When driving past fast food restaurants like Wendy's, Burger King, and McDonald's with their long lines of drive-through traffic, he approaches the scene with an "unmasked spirit of compassion" rather than judgment. He wonders what each person is ordering—double cheeseburgers, happy meals, and other items—and consciously refrains from negative internal or verbal commentary because he recognizes these people are addicted. Notably, his compassion maintains the same non-judgmental stance when observing people at health food restaurants eating what they consider healthy options like bean burritos with avocado and oils. He recognizes they are equally addicted to their food choices, even though they believe they are doing things correctly, and extends the same compassionate understanding to them rather than praise or judgment.
Episode preferences and favorites▾
Anthony mentioned that he keeps changing his mind about which podcast episode is his favorite. He said fruit fear was his favorite, then air fresheners/candles, then apple cider vinegar, then neurological symptoms. He expressed difficulty choosing because each episode contains so much important information that he finds them all compelling.
Exhausting preparation schedule for event▾
I think I went to sleep like around 1 because of all the work and the preparation you know being involved with everything to make it all happen and then I went to sleep at 1 I my alarm clock was set for 4: I got up at 4:00 in the morning and I didn't even grab anything to eat I didn't have any fruit or anything I had just a little bit of coconut water I think and then boom ran to Calabasas ran to Aran right for the meet and greet got in there just in time. I was doing the meet and greet and I was really thirsty right I didn't even have a chance to crack into an hmds the customized bottle right there I didn't even have a chance to crack into one and I think somebody on my team was like Hey are you are you thirsty I was like yeah yeah just grab me anything and you know I got a coconut water and I popped it was icy cold and I popped open the top and I was like just hit so good.
Experience at alternative and holistic health venues▾
Anthony William has had varied experiences at alternative and holistic health venues throughout his career. Over 30 years ago, he attended an alternative dental conference where he advocated against mercury fillings—a position that was controversial even within that holistic health space at the time. Despite the conference's focus on alternative dentistry, mercury fillings were still appreciated by attendees, and his outspoken stance against them resulted in him being practically dragged out of the event.
More recently, Anthony conducted an event at Organic Crush in Long Island, where he had the opportunity to experience their offerings firsthand. During his week at the venue, he consumed many of their Medical Medium watermelon juices and was deeply impressed by the product. He praised the quality of the watermelon juice extensively and found himself unable to get enough of it during his stay.
Experience driving while hearing Spirit▾
Anthony explains that driving doesn't work great for him because as he's going down the street, Spirit tells him what's wrong with everybody around him - people to his left, right, and in front of him at stoplights. This constant information makes driving challenging for him.
Experience filming 'Heal' documentary▾
Anthony William shares the story of how he ended up in the documentary 'Heal'. The filmmaker had invited another woman to be interviewed, but she was on sabbatical and declined. However, she connected the filmmaker to Anthony and two other women who did end up in the film. The filming took place in a building in New York City during a heat wave with the AC shut off, making it 100 degrees. Everyone was in shorts, and Anthony was only wearing his shirt (they didn't film below the waist). During the interview, he gave the filmmaker a reading and mentioned detecting a heart murmur, which was confirmed as the filmmaker had just been to a cardiologist a week prior who found double-jointed valves that could cause irregular heartbeats occasionally.
Experience helping people with medical readings and health guidance▾
Anthony William has developed extensive experience providing medical readings and health guidance across multiple settings and time periods. Since childhood, he has maintained an office practice where he worked hand-in-hand with thousands of people daily, often working around the clock to help clients with their health concerns.
One of Anthony's notable abilities is his capacity to identify specific health conditions in people he encounters. When in public spaces, Spirit communicates to him who has kidney stones, allowing him to perform impromptu medical readings. He has become particularly skilled at identifying kidney stones, describing it as "pretty easy" to detect them. This ability is so consistent that when walking on planes, for instance, Spirit will identify someone with kidney stones out of every 12-18 passengers walking by. Anthony has even conducted segments on shows where he identifies kidney stones in members of the public, demonstrating this gift in real-time.
Beyond his private practice, Anthony has engaged extensively with the medical community through lecturing and developing relationships with doctor friends and medical clinics over the years. When medical professionals approached him for assistance with their patients, he would share insights about root causes of conditions—particularly identifying toxic heavy metals as the underlying cause of serious illnesses like bone marrow failure. These doctors would subsequently report back to Anthony that his recommendations and guidance were producing positive results in their patients' health outcomes, validating his approach to medical reading and treatment recommendations.
Experience with cologne spray▾
Anthony describes spraying cologne directly in his face during a TikTok video demonstration, calling it 'really a stupid thing to do.' His production crew was upset with him for weeks afterward because the toxic smell hung around and couldn't be removed.
Experience with cruise ship story distortion▾
Anthony knows someone who worked on a cruise ship where something happened to them. They told another crew member, who told another, and by the time the story circulated through all the cruise ship workers and got back to the original person, it was completely different from what actually happened.
Expert at chopsticks (sarcastic)▾
AW joked about being 'such an expert at chopsticks' while trying to eat the millet sushi. He's acknowledged in multiple lives that he struggles with chopsticks.
Eyes wide open from this information▾
AW said: 'Spirit of compassion, you always told me about demons. You already told me about that. Yes. You told me they're real. You told me why. All these things. But man, when you crack into it and you get this information, then you're just like bing. My eyes are like open. They're open. And they were open to a degree before, but now like Yeah.'
Facing Backlash, Criticism, and Attacks for His Advocacy▾
# Facing Backlash, Criticism, and Attacks for His Advocacy
Anthony William has encountered sustained opposition across multiple dimensions of his health advocacy work, stemming from what he describes as bringing life-saving information to the public that contradicts established money interests and prevailing trends. This criticism has persisted for years in the form of constant hate and regularly appearing hit pieces, which he finds "really annoying" but has not deterred him from continuing his work.
One significant area of backlash has been his advocacy against caffeine consumption, particularly his public stance against matcha tea, green tea, and coffee. For this position, he faced considerable criticism from the Alternative Health movement, podcast doctors, people selling and marketing affiliate products, and mushroom coffee companies, along with experiencing censorship. Despite the opposition, many people in the health world ultimately quit coffee based on Medical Medium information, suggesting his message resonated despite the resistance.
William also receives substantial backlash for his product recommendations, most notably regarding juicers. Critics have pointed to his repeated mentions of these devices, but he explains that he addresses the topic frequently because he is asked about juicers roughly 100 times per engagement and feels compelled to provide guidance to prevent people from being ripped off by expensive juicer purchases that waste produce.
Another persistent area of criticism involves his warnings about fragrance products. He has been advocating against the toxicity of perfumes, colognes, air fresheners, and scented candles for decades. This stance has generated significant backlash and what he characterizes as "crap" from detractors. Approximately 3-4 years ago, a group of people attempted to "cancel" him specifically over these claims, arguing that discussing air fresheners and scented candles was foolish given other pressing global issues. They attempted to "rip him down" over the topic. William attributes the media backlash and smear campaigns to the chemical industry's influence on media outlets seeking to discredit his exposure of fragrance toxicity. However, the information has been vindicated as other influencers have since begun repeating the same information he originally presented, often without acknowledgment of his earlier advocacy.
The pattern William describes is consistent across topics: when he breaks new information from what he calls Spirit, the hate becomes "so thick," but weeks, months, or years later, the same critics often adopt and spread the information as their own without apologizing. He uses historical perspective to contextualize this phenomenon, noting that approximately 25-30 years ago he experienced direct mockery when seeking echinacea at a pharmacy, with the pharmacist literally laughing him out of the store. He attributes this response to the fact that echinacea was not yet mainstream and available in pharmacies at that time. He references this anecdote to illustrate how dramatically the health supplement landscape has transformed over decades, even as chronic illness continues to increase dramatically despite the public having access to far more health information than in previous generations. Despite the persistent personal cost of attacks and criticism, William remains committed to his advocacy work, motivated by his conviction that the information he shares is too important to withhold.
Family Food Traditions and Practices▾
# Anthony William's Family Food Traditions and Practices
Anthony William has long maintained close culinary traditions with his family members, particularly regarding the preparation and use of healing foods. He actively advises relatives, including his Nana, on traditional dishes like chicken soup, instructing them to incorporate garlic and onions as the truly healing ingredients rather than focusing on the chicken itself as the primary therapeutic component.
His approach to family cooking is marked by consideration for his relatives' preferences and tastes. When preparing dishes like mac and cheese, he carefully moderates ingredients—such as cayenne pepper—to ensure the meals remain appealing to family members who may not enjoy highly spiced food, demonstrating his awareness that his cooking will be shared with the household. Similarly, when making nut butters, his family specifically requests roasted nuts rather than raw ones. When family comes over, they ask whether the nut butters are made with roasted nuts, and Anthony often obliges this preference. Though he notes that raw nuts can be used as well, his family's preference for roasted nuts influences his demonstrations and cooking practices.
Anthony possesses hundreds and hundreds of cooking tips that he has historically kept within his family circle, uncertain even about whether he should share them with friends outside the immediate family unit. These private family cooking techniques have now become public as he shares them on his new Amazon Live cooking show, bringing his family's culinary knowledge to a broader audience.
A particularly significant family tradition centers on mulberry trees, which Anthony and his father have cultivated together throughout their lives. The two have engaged in the labor-intensive work of propagating thousands of mulberry trees by taking hundreds of cuttings and growing new plants. The physical demands of this work are evident—Anthony becomes noticeably sore after days spent cutting cuttings alongside his father. Despite the effort, both father and son enjoy eating the ripe mulberries that result from their cultivation, accepting the berry stains that cover their clothes in the process. Anthony practices what he calls "mulberry meditations," spending reflective time gazing up at the jewel-like berries hanging from the tall trees. The family's mulberry crop sometimes attracts large flocks of waxwing birds, numbering 400 to 500, which consume the harvest, fatten themselves, and then depart to lay eggs elsewhere.
These family food traditions—from the healing philosophy behind chicken soup to the intimate labor of growing mulberries with his father, and from accommodating family preferences in nut butters to moderating spices in shared dishes—reflect Anthony's belief in food as medicine and his deep connection to family-based knowledge and practice.
Family dynamics, support, and involvement in his work▾
# Family Dynamics, Support, and Involvement in His Work
Anthony William's family has been present throughout his life and career, serving both as witnesses to his work and as sources of guidance, support, and feedback. His parents provided early warnings about the challenges that would accompany his gift becoming publicly known, telling him that having his abilities known to the world would not make life progressively easier for him. This parental foresight proved prescient as William's career developed and he faced increasing scrutiny and opposition. His two siblings grew up hearing about all his medical insights, and his family provided crucial support throughout his childhood and the development of his abilities, which were often overwhelming and unusual. His family's engagement extended to active observation of his work, with both parents watching his livestreams and remaining directly involved in observing his activities and message dissemination.
Beyond their role as supporters and observers, family members have also served as counselors on sensitive matters. Anthony discussed with his father the topic of the moon being hollowed out by extraterrestriles, and his father advised caution about how extensively he discussed this subject, particularly regarding the possibility of the moon potentially caving in. This paternal guidance reflected concern about how such discussions might be received by his audience. Additionally, family members have reminded him about the spiritual dimensions of his work, counseling him not to become overly wound up by those who don't have spirit talking to them. His family has advised him that he cannot become charged up about why everything moves so slowly or why information gets twisted as it circulates through alternative and conventional medicine circles.
However, Anthony's family has also expressed significant concerns about both the sustainability and the personal toll of his work. Family members have questioned how long he plans to continue his mission, asking him "how long are you gonna do this" and "how long can you stand it," expressing worry about the immense amount of hate and attacks he receives. William acknowledges that the hate has escalated significantly and reached new heights compared to years prior. Despite these concerns about the emotional and physical demands placed on him, William maintains that he is committed to his mission, telling his family he is "in it" and won't break from it. He explains that he must fight for people and provide them what they need, and that disappearing or taking a break would be unfair to everybody who depends on him. He has also acknowledged that the takedown plot against him has caused damage affecting his family, though he emphasizes that his primary concern remains focused on the broader community and ensuring that his information reaches people, with matters involving his personal life and family remaining secondary to these larger goals.
Beyond concerns about the sustainability of his work, family members have also questioned aspects of his personal conduct and maturity level. A family member asked him "Are you ever gonna grow up?" in response to his playful behavior during livestreams and his overall personality. This question reflects family observations about what they perceive as childlike conduct in his public interactions, even as he has established himself as a public figure and health authority.
Family members have also provided varied feedback regarding his communication style across different platforms and contexts. A family member noted that his presentation differs significantly between his YouTube videos and podcast appearances. According to this feedback, on YouTube videos Anthony can come across as "really annoying" sometimes, though the family member acknowledged that this stems from his genuine desire to get information out to help people heal. By contrast, the same family member observed that on podcast formats, his presentation constitutes "a whole nother thing" entirely—suggesting a notably different communication approach when appearing in that medium. Beyond platform-specific observations, family members have also commented on Anthony's use of humor. While acknowledging that some people outside the family may enjoy his jokes, those around him regularly have expressed fatigue with his comedic style, indicating they are so accustomed to his humor that they anticipate his jokes, with comments like "oh no there's another joke coming out of him," suggesting a weariness that comes from frequent exposure to this aspect of his personality and presentation style.
Family members and their health transformations▾
# Family Members and Their Health Transformations
Anthony William has been actively involved in guiding family members through various health transformations and wellness practices, utilizing his abilities to identify underlying health issues and recommend targeted interventions. His approach combines diagnostic insights with specific supplemental recommendations and lifestyle adjustments tailored to each family member's circumstances.
One notable instance involved a cousin who presented with swollen tonsils. Anthony identified the underlying condition as low-grade viral and streptococcus infection, and advised the family member to consult with their doctor while discussing his findings. This example demonstrates how Anthony applies his diagnostic gift when family members seek his guidance on acute health concerns.
Beyond acute conditions, Anthony has helped family members address chronic health issues. When a family member's best friend experienced significant hair loss—with hair falling out everywhere, filling up her brush and creating distress in the shower—Anthony provided specific supplemental recommendations. The friend had previously tried conventional approaches including regular ashwagandha capsules and B12 within a multivitamin and hair/skin/nail supplements, but without adequate results. Anthony recommended upgrading to high-quality liquid ashwagandha and increasing B12 intake to 4 dropperfuls daily, taken as 2 dropperfuls twice daily. This protocol proved effective, with the hair loss slowing and eventually stopping after the switch.
Anthony's involvement in his family members' wellness extends to consistent daily practices and ongoing supplementation. He actively encourages all his loved ones—including family members, close friends, and childhood friends—to take propolis daily. He maintains regular check-ins with these individuals, frequently asking "Are you taking your propolis?" and reminding them if they have missed doses, demonstrating notable consistency in ensuring compliance with this particular supplement.
Several family members have also adopted the MM-900 juicer as part of their health practices, with tracked financial benefits. These family members report saving approximately $50 per month through reduced produce purchases, as the juicer's efficiency in extracting juice significantly reduces overall produce consumption. The accumulated savings have been substantial enough that the juicer has paid for itself multiple times over, making it a long-term investment that supports both health and economic goals.
Heavy metal detoxification represents another significant area where Anthony has guided family members. A few years ago, one family member expressed readiness to remove metals from their body, and Anthony helped them understand that metal detoxification is a gradual process requiring patience and time. During these conversations, he explained to this family member that their heightened hypersensitivities to chemicals—such as those sprayed on new furniture—were actually rooted in vagus nerve hypersensitivity that had developed from accumulated metals and other health challenges they had endured.
Multiple family members have had amalgam fillings dating back decades, with some originating from up to 100 years prior in their family history. These family members with older amalgam fillings have incorporated the heavy metal detox smoothie into their daily wellness routine, taking it consistently every single day as part of their ongoing health maintenance. Anthony's recommendations regarding heavy metal detoxification extend beyond his immediate family circle to include children within his extended family, pregnant women who are friends and family members, and others in his personal network. However, he emphasizes an important caveat: he advises that people should consult with their doctor about whether the cleanse is appropriate for their individual situation, and if a doctor advises against it, that medical guidance should be respected.
Family relationships and household life▾
# Family Relationships and Household Life
Anthony William maintains a relatively low television consumption personally, though he is exposed to commercials when visiting family members' homes where the television is frequently on. During these visits, he observes advertisements for products he views critically, particularly low-quality fish oil supplements that he considers inferior.
His household includes individuals referred to as Mrs. and Mr. Ferguson, with whom he shares a playful familiarity. During a live video where he was making a skin potion, Anthony jokingly referenced their daily routines, noting that Mrs. Ferguson might come downstairs from upstairs and humorously commenting that Mr. Ferguson is habitually occupied on the toilet. He expressed reluctance to disturb either of them at that moment while also suggesting that both would genuinely appreciate the preparation he was making.
Anthony has a family friend who is a university professor. When the topic of professors instructing students to avoid eating fruit arose, this professor clarified that he was not teaching such a position, though he acknowledged awareness that such instruction was occurring at various universities.
Within his extended family network, Anthony has a relative employed in school maintenance who has provided him with insider information about institutional practices. This family member has informed him that schools conduct extensive pesticide and insecticide treatments during summer months when teachers and students are absent, "gas bombing" entire buildings and classrooms. This firsthand account from his family member working in school maintenance has given Anthony direct knowledge that pesticide spraying occurs across educational facilities from preschools through universities, a practice he uses to counter claims from some teachers who deny these treatments take place.
Family visit and green powder observation▾
While visiting his family's house recently, Anthony William saw a popular green powder commercial on TV - one that has millions of dollars in advertising budget. He noted that this heavily promoted green powder was loaded with anti-caking agents that consumers didn't know about.
Famous bodybuilder friend's realization▾
MM has a famous bodybuilder friend from 40 years ago who asks about his cardio and biking. The friend told MM that even during his bodybuilding days, he couldn't run many miles because bulking for mass is different from cardio endurance. The bodybuilder confirmed MM's teaching by saying that every time he ate more protein, he would lose muscle mass, but when he ate more carbohydrates, he would get bigger muscles. This personal validation from an experienced bodybuilder helped prove MM's point about carbohydrates building muscle, not protein.
Farm experience and apple knowledge▾
Anthony mentions he's been blessed to know about apple selection because he's picked a lot of apples and has visited many farms, including friends' farms. This experience taught him which apples taste best based on their skin markings.
Father's botanical expertise, wisdom, and nature legacy▾
# Father's Botanical Expertise, Wisdom, and Nature Legacy
Anthony William's father possesses extensive expertise with mulberry trees, cultivating knowledge that extends far beyond typical horticultural practice. He maintains a substantial collection of mulberry trees on his property and has developed specialized techniques for their care and management over a lifetime of hands-on experience. One of his notable practical innovations addresses the common problem of mulberry trees growing too tall for berry harvesting. His solution employs a straightforward but effective pruning method: when a mulberry tree has grown too high to reach the berries, he uses a ladder to cut off the top of the tree, allowing the side limbs to develop and spread. This technique enables continued access to the fruit while reshaping the tree's growth pattern. Anthony William has expressed enthusiasm about sharing his father's mulberry expertise more broadly, having planned to feature him on the Medical Medium podcast to discuss the trees and their berries in detail, anticipating that his father's insights and knowledge on this subject will prove particularly remarkable and compelling to listeners.
Anthony William's father emerges as a figure of considerable depth and spiritual maturity. When asked about his age, he deflects with humor, simply stating he is "old" while suggesting that Anthony himself is "a lot older"—a cryptic remark that hints at deeper spiritual understanding. When Anthony presses further about his soul's age, his father responds that it is "about a million" years old. Anthony affirms his belief in this assessment based on lifelong observation, noting that throughout all the years he has known his father, the elder William has consistently demonstrated an ability to see things other people cannot perceive. His father possesses strong intuition, particularly evident in his work rescuing animals, where he demonstrates remarkable foresight about what dangers or situations await. Beyond these intuitive gifts, Anthony emphasizes that his father genuinely cares about the details of life and what people are experiencing.
Anthony describes his father as "a really special guy" with substantial life experience and a deep connection to nature. This connection manifests in his work ethic and physical presence—he is remarkably strong, described as having more muscle than Anthony currently possesses, and he physically engages in considerable labor. Despite these commanding qualities and his obvious importance to Anthony's life and work, his father maintains a notably private disposition. He is both "camera shy" and "mic shy," qualities that made securing an interview with him a lengthy process, underscoring his preference for remaining out of the public eye despite his son's prominence in the wellness and spiritual communities.
Anthony's father developed a lifelong love for turtles during his childhood, when he would walk along ponds fully clothed and jump in with all his clothes on whenever he spotted a turtle head pop up from the water. He would feel around underwater, grab the turtle, take it home as a pet for a while, then release it back into the wild. This early passion shaped his deep belief that turtles have souls. This childhood love of turtles became a shared activity that Anthony would eventually participate in with his father. Together, they rescued hundreds of turtles throughout their lives, working to save various species including painted turtles, mud turtles, and large snapping turtles. Their rescue efforts often took them to dangerous locations—they would stop on highways to help turtles safely cross roads, putting themselves at risk to protect the animals. One particularly memorable rescue occurred on a dangerous stretch of highway in Maine, where Anthony encountered a gigantic snapping turtle that appeared to be nearly dead and approximately 100 years old. However, Anthony received spiritual guidance indicating the turtle was still alive and could be saved. He picked up the massive turtle and placed it in the back of his car, then transported it to a nearby pond. There, the ancient snapping turtle slowly recovered and came back to life. These rescue activities reflected the deep connection both Anthony and his father shared with turtles and their commitment to protecting them.
Anthony William's understanding of his own health challenges is deeply rooted in his father's environmental exposures during childhood. His father has reminded him that as a kid, he would play directly behind DDT trucks that drove through parks. He and his friends would deliberately run up behind these trucks and get sprayed down with the pesticide, receiving direct application all over their bodies, in their hair, and on their skin. His father experienced this DDT contamination multiple times during his childhood. Anthony William recognizes that this paternal exposure created a direct generational transfer of toxicity—the DDT that his father absorbed was passed down to him simply through being born, meaning he began his life already carrying DDT contamination inherited from his father's environmental history. This family health narrative connects to broader patterns Anthony William has observed regarding men's health across generations. He has noted that men, in general, tend not to take care of themselves adequately, frequently suffering from serious health conditions including heart attacks, heart problems, liver disease, prostate problems, kidney diseases, and diabetes. Recognizing these patterns, Anthony William advocates for preventive health measures, particularly juicing, as an intervention for men's health. He emphasizes this recommendation consistently throughout the year, not merely during special occasions like Father's Day, suggesting that men's health maintenance is an ongoing concern that deserves regular attention and care.
Favorite childhood food▾
Anthony's favorite thing growing up was macaroni and cheese, like most little kids. He says what little kid doesn't love macaroni and cheese. He hasn't had eggs since he was a kid because of Spirit's guidance, but acknowledges they taste good.
February cantaloupe experiences▾
Anthony has experienced many times finding a beautiful, gorgeous cantaloupe in February during winter and being amazed that such quality was possible in the depths of winter. He describes the shock and wonder of finding this perfect cantaloupe when it's freezing cold outside with little sun in northern climates.
Feeding wildlife▾
Anthony puts out little pieces of celery for squirrels and they eat it.
Feeling stifled as a child▾
Did you ever feel stifled? Did you ever feel like you couldn't get your voice across? Did you ever feel like you couldn't say something to somebody or you just couldn't get it out at work or anywhere in your life? And you felt like you're being kind of held back? If you've ever felt that, I felt like that as a child in a lot of ways because I couldn't tell everyone the information that Spirit had.
Fighting health trend 'cockroaches' with footwear▾
Anthony describes how in the early days of the health movement, harmful trends were like cockroaches that he could easily deal with using just a slipper taken off his foot to 'smack' them down and protect sick people. As the internet grew, more trends emerged wearing 't-shirts' with different substances written on them - charcoal, colostrum, fish oil. When apple cider vinegar became a big trend, he tried his slipper but had to upgrade to his shoe. Eventually even his shoe bounced off the apple cider vinegar 'roach' as social media exploded and he couldn't protect enough people anymore from this particular trend.
Finding silver quarter at the dump▾
As Anthony and his dad were leaving the dump that day when he was 8, he spotted something shiny on the ground among all the garbage. It was a 1942 silver quarter, all beat up. His dad commented it was an old coin. Spirit immediately told Anthony it was silver (not clad, nickel, or copper) and explained that silver is antiviral and kills pathogens. Spirit said that someday people would be able to take the right kind of silver for sore throats - a teaspoon to kill off strep bacteria. Anthony was amazed to receive this advanced healing information at such a young age while walking out of a dump.
First organic stores and Medical Medium office▾
Almost 25 years ago, Anthony William and his wife started what he describes as the first organic and wild food store in the United States. At that time, there wasn't such a thing as an all-organic health food store with wild foods included. Most stores were non-organic, and even the best health food stores had very few organic options in their produce departments. Their store featured the first 100% organic produce department in the country. They sold organic produce at cost with no markup because they wanted people to be able to afford organic produce.
Below the store, downstairs on the other side of the building, Anthony had his Medical Medium office where people traveled from around the world to see him. Patients came from different countries and all across the United States seeking answers and to have him work with their doctors on discoveries about what was wrong with them. After appointments, he would take people upstairs to the store to get the foods they needed to help them heal. As they walked around the produce department together, many people would learn about organic produce for the first time in their lives and discover which foods were good for them and what to eat to support their healing.
One question came up constantly from patients: Can I eat eggs? Can I still have eggs in my diet? Despite his recommendations against eggs for healing purposes, Anthony stocked the best organic, free-range, local eggs in the store for people who insisted on eating them.
First spiritual experience at age four▾
# First Spiritual Experience at Age Four
Anthony William's first encounter with his spiritual abilities occurred when he was four years old. One morning, he woke up and heard a voice that was distinctly not his own and not from anyone around him. The voice was external and perfectly clear, coming from outside rather than from within his mind. Frightened by how real and present it sounded, he initially believed someone was talking outside his window or perhaps his parents downstairs. He got out of bed, went to the window to investigate, then searched for his family members, but found no one speaking. The voice, however, did not come from any physical location—it was coming from the air, from around him, from the sky itself.
The most remarkable aspect of this initial spiritual contact was its focus and subject matter. From the very beginning, the voice was concentrated on matters of health. It discussed chronic illness, the reasons people became sick, and the factors that contribute to disease. The voice began teaching him about health problems and health conditions, providing him with advanced information on these topics. Importantly, this voice never departed after that first morning. It remained with him constantly from that moment forward and has continued to be present throughout his life.
That same evening at dinner, Anthony experienced a visual manifestation of Spirit—appearing behind his grandmother. This was one of only two times in his life that he would see Spirit in visual form. Spirit communicated to him that his grandmother had lung cancer. Though Anthony struggled slightly with pronouncing the words correctly at first, after saying it a couple of times, his family had to take his grandmother in for medical evaluation. Doctors subsequently confirmed that she did indeed have lung cancer, validating the information he had received.
Despite the initial fright of hearing this disembodied voice and not understanding who or what was speaking to him, there was also a quality of gentleness and compassion in the communication. Alongside the fear of the unknown came a reassurance—a sense that everything would be okay. This marked the beginning of Anthony William's lifelong spiritual gift and his mission centered on health and healing.
Fly on the wall friend▾
MM mentions his friend 'fly on the wall' who has seen the wealth and excess of Big Pharma executives - their Bentleys, Rolls Royces, mansions, and yachts that they profit from off people's sickness
Food waste and helping homeless▾
When criticized for 'wasting' hundreds of eggs in a TikTok video demonstration, AW explained that the eggs were actually outdated by a day and the grocery store manager let him have them because they would have been thrown in the dumpster anyway. He pointed out that grocery stores across the US dump hundreds of tons of eggs every week, and there are laws preventing this food from being given to homeless people. He expressed frustration that homeless families living in tent cities could be fed with all the food thrown away daily, but the system won't allow it.
Forced into health work from age 4▾
Anthony William admits he wouldn't naturally have been interested in health work. He was forced into it starting at age four by Spirit of Compassion, who 'pushed him into it' and 'forced him into it.' He argued with Spirit of Compassion many times because of this. He credits this early intervention with protecting him from easily falling for things like the protein obsession—trends he would have been susceptible to if he had naturally been into health without Spirit's guidance and wouldn't have known better.
Formative childhood experiences and early awareness of healing▾
# Formative Childhood Experiences and Early Awareness of Healing
Anthony William's awareness of his healing abilities emerged early in childhood, shaped by a series of formative experiences that both revealed his gifts and taught him fundamental lessons about human physiology and compassion. Around age 9 or 10, after attending church, someone approached him knowing he was recognized in his community as "the kid that could see." This person asked about a kidney problem they were experiencing, and through Spirit's immediate scanning ability, Anthony revealed that the issue wasn't mystery viruses or kidney stones, but rather injury from medications—specifically anxiety medications that the person confirmed taking in large quantities.
By age 11 and a half, Anthony was working as a caddy on a golf course, partly because he wanted to try to sidetrack the constant voice he heard non-stop. Just before turning 12, while caddying for a husband and wife, Spirit informed him that the wife was experiencing mystery fatigue that had persisted for a decade. Though she wasn't particularly tired that specific day, she was astounded by his accurate perception of her long-term condition, which her doctors and even her own husband had dismissed, with some suggesting she was mentally unstable. Anthony identified her condition as Epstein-Barr virus from the herpes family, connected to mono she had experienced as a child. He provided her with a complete protocol for recovery, and she healed within a year. The couple subsequently requested him specifically whenever they returned to play golf on weekends.
Also at age 11, while spending time with his uncle who was working on tractor tires, Anthony attempted to pick up and roll a tire with a rim, finding it inexplicably heavy. His uncle explained that the tire was filled with calcium to add weight, providing Anthony with a direct, physical understanding of how heavy calcium is—knowledge that would later inform his comprehension of how calcium settles in kidneys to form stones.
A childhood memory at age 8 at a friend's swimming pool proved particularly formative. Anthony witnessed an adult push a young girl off a diving board into the pool when she was building up courage to jump on her own. The child aspirated water and choked at the pool's edge. Anthony immediately knew this was wrong, and he understood that Spirit also knew it was wrong. This experience became a lasting metaphor that he would later use in his writing about liver health, illustrating the principle of not forcing the body to cleanse too quickly.
Anthony's empathy and spiritual awareness extended to understanding conditions invisible to those around him. As a child, there was a man down the street with Tourette's syndrome who would walk through the neighborhood shouting severe curse words and profanities, causing most neighbors to despise him and putting his life in danger from hostile reactions. However, Anthony recognized something others did not: Spirit revealed to him that the man had mercury poisoning from factory work manufacturing gauges filled with mercury, and he had been exposed to far more mercury than anyone could quantify, on top of mercury he already carried. Beneath his distressing vocal outbursts, the man was genuinely kind-hearted with much love in his heart who had never done anything wrong. Anthony understood that the mercury damage affected both his vocal center and emotional center, and that when people attacked him, the heated emotional response intensified the vocal outbursts. When Anthony defended the man to adults, explaining his mercury poisoning and inherent goodness, they misunderstood and thought Anthony himself had Tourette's.
Beyond his waking perceptive abilities, Anthony possessed remarkable dream abilities since childhood. He could enter other people's dreams and perform various actions within them. Spirit of compassion also communicated with him during sleep, and these interactions were amplified by what he calls the dream shifter, which enhanced his naturally vivid dream state. This multifaceted spiritual capacity—combining daytime intuitive scanning, empathetic understanding of hidden conditions, and nocturnal dream work—formed the foundation of his healing awareness from his earliest years.
Foundational Spiritual Teachings and Practices Learned in Childhood▾
# Foundational Spiritual Teachings and Practices Learned in Childhood
Anthony William's spiritual foundation was established through direct teachings from Spirit of Compassion during his childhood and formative years. These teachings, which began remarkably early—before he could even properly pronounce certain words—became central to both his personal development and his eventual work helping others.
The concept of "light heart" emerged as one of the earliest and most enduring tools Anthony learned. Spirit of Compassion taught him to use this as a healing instrument when he was a young child, and he has carried this understanding throughout his life, recognizing it reflected in scripture. He views it as a practical tool that others can also utilize for their own healing.
Compassion itself was a foundational teaching that Spirit began imparting during Anthony's earliest years. Spirit of Compassion showed him the importance of caring for all living things—teaching him to extend the same concern he would have for a frog with an injury, a bunny with a broken leg, a grasshopper, or a baby bird to people and individuals. These were not abstract lessons but profound teachings delivered during powerful, formative moments when Anthony was questioning things or doubting. When he was younger and simply wanted to ride his bicycle, Spirit of Compassion would challenge him directly: "You have to care." Anthony initially resisted, asking "Why do I have to care?" but eventually something shifted in him as a child. He came to care deeply for everybody and everything, though he acknowledges this caring was difficult for him. Despite the challenges, he never lost track of that compassion instilled during these early teachings.
Around nine years old, Anthony experienced an exciting practical dimension of his developing gift. When friends would have herbs or spices like oregano on food, Spirit would immediately provide him with complete information about what the herb was doing in the body—what it kills, how it helps the immune system—all of this knowledge downloading at that young age during what was otherwise a difficult childhood.
Spirit of Compassion also taught Anthony specific meditation techniques during his childhood that became lifelong practices. The Brain Meditation was one such practice, designed to help rid fear. Though Anthony had been privately sharing this meditation with family and friends throughout the years, he had not publicly released it until later in his life, describing himself as excited and "giddy" about finally sharing it because he knew what people would experience from it. Additionally, Spirit of Compassion taught Anthony a breathing light meditation technique more than 30 years ago when he was young. This involved the specific technique of moving his nose and mouth to different places on the body to pinpoint light. Rather than a one-time learning experience, this became a regular part of his life that he has practiced his entire life since childhood.
An important lesson in humility came during Anthony's late teens or early twenties, when his ego had become inflated because everything Spirit told him always proved correct. While pulling onions in the garden, a neighbor thanked him for knowing his wife had arsenic poisoning when no doctors could help. Anthony responded arrogantly, saying "that's because I'm never wrong...I'm always right." In response to this pride, he stepped on a rake that knocked him unconscious. When he came to, Spirit delivered a direct correction: "you remember this, Anthony, I'm the one that's right. You're wrong. I'm the one that's right and never forget it." This experience became a pivotal humbling moment that shaped his understanding of his role and the source of his abilities.
A significant practice that emerged from Spirit's teachings involved learning to "see through" Spirit rather than simply hearing guidance. When Anthony was younger, Spirit presented him with two options: Spirit could simply tell him everything, or Spirit could grant him the ability to see what was being communicated. Anthony's initial response was to prefer the simpler method of just hearing Spirit's voice, but Spirit indicated that he would receive both abilities—he would continue to hear Spirit while also being able to see what was being conveyed. To practice this developing ability, Spirit said they would go to the cemetery and Anthony would be told how people died while also being able to see it. Anthony has never forgotten that first day at the cemetery, describing it as terrifying. This became part of his formative spiritual training, expanding his perception beyond auditory guidance to include visual sight of the information Spirit was conveying.
Friend Bryce and cannabis use▾
Anthony William has a friend named Bryce who has struggled significantly with cannabis use. According to Anthony, Bryce smokes weed constantly and has been "totally stoned every day out of his mind," spending most of his time sitting on the couch. The habit had severe consequences for Bryce's marriage. His wife eventually left him after witnessing the extent of his cannabis use and sedentary lifestyle. Anthony recalls a specific moment when Bryce's wife walked into their home to find pizza boxes scattered everywhere—a scene that prompted her to leave him. Anthony has spoken to Bryce directly about the unsustainability of daily heavy cannabis use, telling him that there is a limited window after college during which a romantic partner will tolerate constant marijuana smoking before the relationship breaks down.
At some point, Bryce appeared on one of Anthony's shows to work with the audience when Anthony was outside, indicating at least some level of continued connection despite the issues surrounding his drug use.
Friend Bryce visit▾
Anthony William had a friend named Bryce come over during the live stream to try his homemade hummus. He mentioned that Bryce 'just came back from a big gathering' where 'he was hanging out with a bunch of friends.' The visit was planned as AW had told Bryce 'I was making a really good hummus' and Bryce was coming over to try it. During the visit, there was mention of Bryce running over AW's mailbox and some playful banter about the incident.
Friend asking for avocados at store▾
Anthony mentions sending a friend to buy ingredients: 'I sent a friend to the store I was like hey could you go and get like some avocado for me I need a bunch of them I'm making it for family some guacamole'
Friend commenting on chopping technique▾
Anthony mentions that he had a friend over who asked if his fast chopping technique was in fast motion on video, and he replied 'no that's not in fast motion, that's a chopping technique.'
Friend giving kale chips▾
Anthony's friend got him a bag of kale chips and was eating them saying they were so good. When Anthony asked him to flip over the package, it listed sunflower oil, olive oil, nutritional yeast, and natural flavors among the ingredients. The friend asked what nutritional yeast was, thinking it was like baker's yeast, and whether it was good for you since it was in a health food that was non-GMO and gluten-free with no preservatives. Anthony had to explain that while kale is incredible, the kale chips were 'dressed up to be something more than just kale' with the nutritional yeast.
Friend in Hawaii and Fukushima radiation▾
Anthony has a friend who lives in Hawaii, and both the friend and their family are still doing Medical Medium anti-radiation tools because of the Fukushima radiation exposure from 2011 that headed to the West Coast, California, and Hawaii. He jokes that 'people in Hawaii would glow in the dark after that.'
Friend who is a cashier▾
Anthony mentions: 'I got a friend who's a cashier and she says every single morning I work for God now it changes it can change your life'
Friend who is an incredible painter▾
Anthony tells about someone he knows who is an incredible painter. This person told him that years ago there wasn't any jealousy toward their gift, but now there's jealousy with how great this person's painting is. The painter can't believe the change in people's attitudes in the internet age.
Friend who licks packages▾
Anthony describes a friend who deliberately licks packages and his hands after touching delivery packages to 'collect germs' believing it makes him stronger. The friend will lick packages right in front of Anthony and say things like 'lots of bugs, lots of germs, hey, maybe I'll catch COVID.' Anthony points out to his friend that despite this behavior, the friend keeps asking Anthony for health advice every few months because he's not actually getting stronger, but rather breaking his system down more.
Friend who saves cardboard boxes▾
Anthony has a friend who saves every cardboard box instead of recycling them. When Anthony asked why, the friend said 'you never know when you're gonna need one.' Anthony relates this to his own mission of saving lives - just as his friend likes to save cardboard boxes, Anthony likes to save lives.
Friend who says 'see what I'm saying'▾
Anthony has a friend who constantly says 'see what I'm saying' and 'you know what I mean' every few seconds during conversation. Anthony finds this repetitive speech pattern amusing and mimics how the friend talks.
Friend with eye tattoo▾
Anthony has a friend who got a tattoo around his eye (not on the eyeball). The friend asked Anthony if it was a good idea and Anthony told him he didn't think it was smart. The tattoo can only be read when the friend closes his eyelid and says something like 'Freedom'. Anthony wouldn't get that kind of tattoo himself but wasn't making fun of his friend.
Friend with lice story▾
Anthony told a story about a friend who got lice and wanted to shave his whole head. Anthony told him not to shave his head because they could figure out how to get rid of lice. The friend started shaving half his head anyway, and Anthony called that stupid, asking why he would do that over lice.
Friend's agricultural and cultivation experiences▾
# Friend's Agricultural and Cultivation Experiences
Anthony William has witnessed firsthand the challenges his friends have faced in cultivating various plants and crops. These experiences have illustrated to him the difficulties and limitations of cultivated agriculture compared to wild-grown alternatives.
One friend attempted to grow celery but encountered an unexpected problem: the plants produced all leaves with no stalks, resulting in "just a whole bush of leaves." When the friend began cutting the leaves to juice them, Anthony cautioned him about the potency and intensity of the harvest. He warned that because it was "nothing but leaves," the juice would be bitter and astringent, powerful enough to "knock your socks off," requiring careful moderation in consumption.
Another friend's experience involved operating a cultivated blueberry farm where visitors would come to pick blueberries. Years ago, the farm suffered a severe drought when no rain fell and the friend's well dried up, leaving him unable to water the blueberry field. The cultivated blueberry plants began to die from lack of water. The following year, only some of the plants survived and came back. The year after that, even fewer returned. Eventually, the friend abandoned the farm entirely, finding the operation too demanding and labor-intensive to maintain. The continued requirements of fertilizer, feeding, and consistent watering proved unsustainable for him. When Anthony checked on the farm later, he found that not a single cultivated blueberry plant had survived, which he saw as evidence of how weak and dependent cultivated blueberries are compared to their wild counterparts.
Friend's condo experience: association, board, and mold issues▾
Anthony has a friend who lives in a condo within a community that operates under a board of approximately 10 to 15 members. This board makes rules and decisions that govern the community, functioning as the decision-making body for the condo association. According to Anthony, his friend frequently expresses frustration with the board's inconsistency, noting that sometimes their decisions are acceptable, but other times they are deeply problematic. His friend often wonders what is happening behind closed doors and questions who is actually running the organization. Anthony uses this condo board analogy to illustrate how private panels of influencers operate within both conventional and alternative medicine. These panels make decisions and determine what will be approved or rejected, much like a condo board makes rules for its community. Anthony suggests that understanding the questionable nature of condo board decisions helps people comprehend the similarly questionable decision-making that occurs within medical panels and institutions.
In a separate matter, Anthony also mentions a friend who has endured significant hardship due to mold exposure. This friend was forced to relocate from her home and attempted to escape the problem by moving to another location, bringing all of her belongings with her. However, she felt as though the mold had followed her to the new place. The situation left her deeply worried and sick. When discussing her experience with Anthony, he explained to her that while the mold had indeed made her sick, her current health struggles involved more complexity than just mold exposure alone. He characterized her ongoing symptoms as being triggered, indicating that psychological and physiological factors beyond the initial mold exposure were contributing to her continued illness.
Friend's construction renovation experience▾
Anthony had a friend who was doing house renovations, sectioning off areas with plastic while tearing down wallboard. When Anthony visited, he could smell tons of sheet rock dust and fiberglass insulation despite the plastic barriers. He warned his friend to leave the house and stay with relatives, but his friend said 'Anthony, you live in a bubble. This is the real world.' Anthony insisted the dust was dangerous. His friend and son both developed serious asthma from the exposure, while the wife and daughter (who weren't involved in the construction work) didn't develop asthma.
Friend's engagement with health information sources▾
Anthony William has multiple friends who engage with health information sources in various ways, providing him with observations about the broader health information landscape. One friend has made it a practice to read through numerous health books by doctors, and through this extensive research noticed a significant gap in the market: none of the books contained specific dosages or protocols for particular conditions. Most critically, this friend could not find a single health book that both explained why someone actually has a condition like eczema and then provided a concrete protocol on how to heal it. These observations from the friend help Anthony illustrate why Medical Medium information stands apart from other health literature.
Another friend of Anthony's had a comparative experience with health books after reading the Brain Saver series. When this friend picked up an old "eat better" book by another well-known health author, he found it to be like a joke in comparison to the Medical Medium material. He was struck by how remedial and basic the other author's content seemed when compared to how advanced and helpful the Medical Medium books are. The difference was significant enough that he threw the other book out.
Beyond book-based research, Anthony also receives reports from friends about current health trends in digital spaces. One friend regularly tells him about YouTube food influencers and their dietary habits, noting that these influencers frequently make simple meals consisting of small salads of greens dressed with oil and vinegar, topped with soft-boiled eggs.
Additionally, Anthony mentions that a friend recently accessed one of his books through a library system, having walked into a local library and obtained a copy of "Cleanse to Heal" for free. This example suggests that people can access Medical Medium books at no cost through their local library systems.
Friend's expensive tequila story▾
Friend of mine told me that he paid $37 for just a shot of tequila in a bar $37 for a shot of tequila he told me the reason why cuz the worm was at the bottom of the bottle there was a worm at the bottom of the bottle I said dude you don't want to be drinking that with the worm on the bottom in the bottle that's disgusting
Friend's experience with medical information being used▾
A friend told Anthony about hearing a doctor on a commercial during opera intermission claiming that weight gain is caused by an overburdened, stagnant liver - information that Anthony/Medical Medium published first from Spirit of Compassion. The doctor was selling a product and used this Medical Medium information without attribution, then recommended things that would actually make the problem worse.
Friend's experiences with health challenges and symptoms▾
Anthony has reflected on how health challenges, particularly neurological symptoms, impact people's social perception and relationships. He shared an experience with a friend who struggled significantly with brain fog, describing how this symptom led others to misjudge her character and intelligence. Despite being brilliant, she faced constant underestimation from those around her, who viewed her as not smart, uneducated, disorganized, or scattered. This experience prompted Anthony to recognize how unfair such judgments are when someone is genuinely dealing with a real neurological symptom rather than lacking capability or competence.
In a separate instance, Anthony recounted an interaction with an old friend named Jack who attempted to reach out seeking help for a hurt toe that had been bothering him for three weeks. Anthony felt unable to assist with what he considered a minor issue, as he explained his focus needed to remain on helping people dealing with serious chronic conditions. He referenced the severity of illnesses he typically addresses—including fatigue lasting five to thirty years, chronic skin, liver, and kidney conditions, foot pain so severe it prevents people from walking, and sinus problems persisting for a decade or longer, as well as food reactions. In Jack's case, Anthony attributed the toe problem to a toenail that had been clipped too short, making it seem trivial compared to the long-term suffering experienced by others seeking his assistance.
Friend's experiences with scented products and personal items▾
# Anthony William's Friends' Experiences with Scented Products and Personal Items
Anthony William has shared several anecdotes about his friends' experiences with scented products, illustrating both the pervasiveness of artificial fragrances and their effects on people who have eliminated them from their lives.
One incident occurred during lockdown when Anthony's friend was at the beach with a couple of other friends, taking advantage of the fresh air and doing breathing exercises while enjoying the ocean breeze. Their experience was disrupted when someone walked by on the water side wearing cologne. The wind carried the scent directly to them, and the sudden shift from breathing clean ocean air to what they described as "dirty air" filled with cologne was so jarring that all three friends' eyes opened in shock, as if the person wearing the cologne was standing right next to them.
In another case involving detection and home safety, Anthony recounts a detailed story about a friend in LA who had eliminated all scented products from their home on Anthony's advice, removing scented candles, air freshener plugins, perfumes, and fabric softeners. When the friend returned home and detected cologne and conventional fabric softener—specifically Bounce—in the house, they called Anthony confused about the source. According to Anthony, Spirit informed him that "Somebody's in your house" and instructed the friend to leave immediately. When police arrived and investigated, they discovered a man hiding in the bedroom closet. Anthony uses this incident as an example of how members of the Medical Medium community who have eliminated toxic scents from their environment can actually use their heightened sensitivity to fragrance as a tool to detect intruders.
A third story involves an expensive shirt that Anthony's friend ordered online for the first time. Upon arrival, the garment was saturated with cologne from a previous wearer who had returned it, and the company had resent it without cleaning it. The cologne was so potent that it burned the friend's eyes and began permeating their house. Despite washing the shirt five to six times, the cologne remained embedded in the fabric and continued to smell up both the dryer and the entire house. When the friend requested a refund, the company refused because the item had been washed multiple times. Forced to discard the shirt, the friend discovered that even when placed in a garbage bag, the cologne seeped through, necessitating the disposal of the garbage bag as well.
Friend's food and dietary choices▾
Anthony William has observed various dietary patterns among his friends that illustrate different aspects of his nutritional philosophy. In one instance, he discussed a friend whose 96-year-old parent maintains excellent health despite regularly consuming wheat bagels with cream cheese from Dunkin Donuts, without experiencing autoimmune issues or inflammation. Anthony uses this example to demonstrate that grains are not inherently inflammatory, contrary to some dietary narratives.
In another situation, Anthony encountered a friend who claimed to eat lots of blueberries as part of a healthy diet. When Anthony asked where the friend obtained these blueberries, the friend revealed that he had a blueberry muffin every morning. Anthony initially responded by laughing, which he later acknowledged may not have been the most supportive reaction, attributing his tendency to laugh frequently to his general personality. Upon further investigation, Anthony discovered that the muffins didn't actually contain real blueberries at all—instead, they were made with fake blueberries consisting of jelly and gelatinous substances that were dyed and flavored to look and taste like blueberries. This experience highlighted a disconnect between what his friend believed he was consuming and what the product actually contained.
Anthony has also referenced conversations with friends about processed meat consumption. He mentions talking to a friend who reflected on eating substantial amounts of bologna throughout their lifetime. Anthony uses such examples to illustrate his point about how the regular consumption of processed meats burdens and weakens the liver over time, representing a significant dietary pattern that affects health.
Friend's holiday cookie situation▾
Anthony talked to a friend whose neighbor is baking cookies every day during the holidays. The cookies are filled with things that aren't so great but his friend is just gobbling them down, and the neighbor keeps making more Christmas cookies and bringing them over.
Friend's meditation and spiritual practices▾
Anthony William has been connected to several notable instances involving friends' meditation and spiritual practices across different contexts. One friend credited William's anti-anxiety meditations as instrumental in their recovery, stating they were able to get off anti-anxiety medications by using his meditations instead.
In another instance, a friend who creates meditations challenged William to compare approaches, suggesting that their meditation would "totally put yours to shame." The friend's meditation followed conventional formats—sitting cross-legged, clearing the mind, breathing exercises, and visualizing the sun. William responded supportively to the challenge but observed that this style of meditation "had been done a billion times made by men," and he encouraged his friend to explore a meditation "that wasn't created by a guy," suggesting an alternative approach to the standard man-made meditation practices.
A doctor friend of William's attended a spiritual retreat that featured various holistic and spiritual practices including yoga, breathing exercises, astrology, and storytelling. However, the retreat took a concerning turn when one participant experienced a panic attack during breathwork exercises severe enough to require emergency services intervention. Beyond this incident, William's friend was struck by a notable contradiction they observed among the retreat's attendees: despite being spiritually oriented individuals—including vegans, vegetarians, and those following keto diets—the group became deeply preoccupied with protein consumption during mealtimes. The participants constantly asked each other "where's your protein?" and engaged in frequent discussions about protein. This observation led William's friend to conclude that even supposedly natural and spiritually enlightened people were significantly brainwashed regarding protein.
Friend's personal incidents and observations▾
# Friend's Personal Incidents and Observations
Anthony has witnessed and discussed various personal incidents with friends that illustrate broader health and environmental concerns. In one notable incident, Anthony observed a friend attempt to open a beer bottle with his teeth. The friend grabbed the bottle, placed his mouth on it, and tried to tear off the cap, but the attempt resulted in several of his teeth ending up in his hand while the bottle cap remained firmly attached. Anthony contrasted this experience with observations of other people who can easily rip bottle caps off with their teeth, using the incident to illustrate how internal tooth strength varies considerably based on nutritional deficiencies and inherited factors.
In a separate conversation about environmental issues, Anthony was discussing the Pacific garbage patch with a friend when the friend shared a striking observation about ocean wildlife displacement. The friend reported seeing fish that normally inhabit deep ocean waters and do not typically live on the coast appearing near the coastline. The friend attributed this unusual coastal presence to the Pacific garbage patch, which has grown to a size larger than Texas and is moving toward the west coast at a significant rate. According to the friend's observation, the garbage patch is expanding so rapidly that it is effectively squeezing out the wildlife from their normal deep-ocean habitat and pushing them toward the coast.
Friend's pregnancy situation▾
Anthony shares about a friend he hadn't talked to in a long time who was pregnant. She was consuming a lot of caffeine through chocolate daily because a health practitioner told her dark chocolate (70-90% cacao) was really good for pregnant women. She didn't realize chocolate contained significant caffeine and was concerned when Anthony explained the effects on her baby. She immediately stopped consuming it after learning about the risks. She described herself as a 'mama bear' who protects babies and was mortified to learn health professionals were giving advice that could harm babies.
Friend's reaction to pharmaceutical exposure shot▾
A friend asked Anthony why he was taking the pharmaceutical exposure shot, asking if something was wrong with him or if he was on pharmaceuticals. Anthony replied that he's not on any pharmaceuticals but explained there are many avenues of exposure, referencing information in the book.
Friend's recent betrayal▾
Anthony describes counseling a friend who 'just got betrayed so bad, just so bad. The betrayal was just horrendous and he didn't want to live anymore.' Anthony taught him about soul connection, helping him realize 'you can't take my soul away. No one's going to be able to take my soul away' and that he could get through it.
Friend's restaurant eating challenge incident▾
Anthony shares a story about a friend whose friend attempted a restaurant eating challenge involving a massive 20-pound steak. If completed, the entire family would eat for free. The man was six foot four and 240 pounds, with a muscular build and a known reputation for being able to eat and drink large amounts. However, he had consumed a cheeseburger an hour before the challenge, despite knowing he shouldn't have done so.
Halfway through the steak, the man developed severe stomach cramps. He fell to the restaurant floor in a fetal position, moaning and attempting to pass gas while the whole restaurant gathered around to watch. He was farting in agony as he lay there. Emergency services had to be called to respond to the incident.
Anthony uses this story to illustrate a broader point about the digestive system: the stomach has no choice but to accommodate and process whatever is put into it, regardless of the circumstances or timing of food consumption.
Friend's situations involving requests and decisions▾
Anthony William has encountered several situations where friends have approached him with requests or sought his guidance on important decisions, revealing his values and approach to both business and personal matters.
A longtime practitioner friend visited Anthony and became enthusiastic about the Brain Saver books, calling them incredible. However, the friend then attempted to convince Anthony to monetize the material differently, suggesting he chop the books into smaller volumes or create paid programs from the information rather than keeping it accessible and affordable. Anthony firmly refused this suggestion, explaining that his priority was ensuring everybody had access to answers for neurological and brain conditions at a dirt-cheap price point. He emphasized that so many people are suffering in crippling agony, and affordability was essential to his mission of helping them heal.
In another situation, Anthony's friend went through a significant life crisis when his wife of 20 years left him. The friend had been sitting on the couch smoking weed daily throughout their marriage, and after the separation, he reached out to Anthony asking for a job. Anthony declined to hire him, but his refusal came with specific observations and conditions. Anthony noted that Spirit had informed him over the phone that the friend wasn't even wearing socks. Beyond that detail, Anthony observed that the friend's living situation had deteriorated—there were pizza boxes scattered all over the coffee table, he wasn't taking out the garbage, and his ex-wife occasionally returned to the house to clean up the pizza boxes out of sympathy for his condition. Anthony told his friend that before they could discuss employment, he needed to take concrete steps to improve his situation: put on socks, take a shower, eat something, and clean up the pizza boxes. This response reflected Anthony's view that the friend needed to address his personal circumstances before moving forward professionally.
Friend's transformation from brain shot cleanse▾
Anthony mentions that a friend reached out who had already done one of the brain shot therapy cleanses, and 'his life is completely changed.'
Friend's wedding menu comparison▾
Anthony creates a humorous scenario about attending a friend's wedding where instead of the usual chicken or fish options, everyone was served lemons because 'that's all everybody eats' according to critics. He contrasts this absurd scenario with reality - that people aren't actually eating lemons as meals but are consuming massive quantities of other foods like thousands of chicken wings, cups of coffee, and gallons of vinegar over the years.
Friends and Family Seeking Health Advice▾
# Friends and Family Seeking Health Advice
Anthony William frequently receives health inquiries from friends and family members who reach out during times of illness or health concerns. These requests span a wide range of conditions, from acute illnesses to chronic health complications, and reveal both his approach to informal medical advice-giving and his frustrations with how people seek his guidance.
## Acute Illness and Preventative Preparedness
When friends contact him with acute illnesses like coughs, sniffles, or flu symptoms, he responds with consistent questioning, repeatedly asking them "How much vitamin C are you doing?" and directing them toward zinc shock therapy. He expresses particular frustration when people reach out during health crises without having prepared in advance, feeling conflicted about these situations. He explains his perspective: "I actually feel bad I feel bad for people you know when a friend reaches out to me and says aw I hate to bother you but right now I got the worst flu and I'm like okay can you use this stuff that you're supposed to have on hand they're like I never got it I'm like what do you want me to do about it you want me to magically snap my like my finger and all of a sudden it all appears you should have gotten it you should have had it in your toolkit." This sentiment reveals his belief that individuals should maintain a preventative health toolkit rather than waiting until illness strikes to seek remedies. When friends don't already have zinc on hand, he expresses frustration, telling them "too bad, it would be really great if you had the zinc."
Anthony has also received calls from people asking what to do when they or their children bang their heads really hard, worried about complications like not waking up or developing swelling. He tells family and friends specific protocols after head injuries, recommending immediate use of curcumin, B12, zinc, or vitamin C.
Some friends don't actually follow his Medical Medium protocol until they face a health crisis. He explains, "I got friends that like don't even do medical medium until they're they're on their deathbed in in a hospital and and then they're asking me while they're there saying, 'Oh my god, I think I just got the worst food poisoning. What do I do?'" Despite this behavior, Anthony makes clear that such situations don't affect his willingness to maintain these friendships.
## Long-term Health Regrets and Follow-up Advice
Beyond acute illness, Anthony hears from old friends who contact him years later with regret about not following his advice earlier. These friends have reached out saying "oh my god i should have listened to you 20 years ago," describing how they neglected to address health issues like Epstein-Barr virus, only to later develop conditions including Hashimoto's, liver problems, autoimmune conditions, numbness and tingling, and various other health complications. When these friends do seek his guidance, he recommends specific protocols including lemon balm (referring to it as "the ten to one"), zinc, and licorice, emphasizing that "all these things matter."
## Specific Health Situations and Recommendations
More specific instances reveal the range of health concerns friends bring to him. A family friend dealing with cancer came to him asking about blood draws during cancer treatment. Anthony's advice was to request smaller blood vials done periodically versus larger ones all at once, because cancer patients especially need their white blood cell count to stay strong to keep things in check and under control. Additionally, about three months prior to one live session, a family member from Maine that Anthony hadn't talked to in a long time reached out to him from out of state. This family member told him they were sensitive to everything and asked what to do. Anthony recommended the mono eating cleanse—to pick one food and work with it, then pick another from the mono eating cleanse options.
## Challenges and Skepticism from Friends
Anthony has encountered direct criticism from friends regarding different aspects of his work. One friend challenged his emphasis on dietary practices by suggesting that he was obsessively focused on food, saying "that's all you're doing is you're playing with food" and repeatedly mentioning "food food food making food food food." Anthony responded by pointing out the contradiction in this person's position, noting that his friend had "been in and out of the hospital for years with all kinds of problems" and was themselves fixated on food—simply directed toward restaurant dining rather than health. He highlighted the irony by noting that his friend was constantly "wondering what restaurant you want your palette to experience" and was "obsessed about people serving you" during a pandemic, suggesting his friend's food obsession was equally preoccupied with food, just consumed rather than prepared for health.
Another friend questioned Anthony's decision to take a pharmaceutical exposure shot, asking "why are you taking the pharmaceutical exposure shot like what's wrong with you are you on Pharmaceuticals?" Anthony clarified that he was not on any pharmaceuticals and explained that he took the shot because of the extensive information about pharmaceutical exposure detailed in his published work, saying "I don't know did you read the book it's a lot of exposure."
A different friend criticized Anthony's business model more directly, calling him "stupid" for not protecting his recipes and healing information behind paywalls the way restaurants guard their secret family recipes. This friend pointed out that Anthony gives away significant health information for free, which people in the health industry then steal and charge for through their own programs and products. Meanwhile, establishments like restaurants refuse to share even basic ingredient information. The friend argued that Anthony should be charging for and protecting his healing information rather than providing it freely to the public.
## In-Person Interactions and Social Gatherings
Anthony William maintains an active social life with regular in-person interactions with friends. Friends and family have commented on his natural state of constant activity, telling him his mind is already 'awake' in the sense that he's constantly going, going, going all day without stopping, always on the phone with people.
Anthony has experienced interruptions from friends during his live streams and cooking shows. During one livestream, a friend who was watching on Rumble called Anthony to question whether he was breaking his cleanse by consuming stuffed peppers. This friend was simultaneously undertaking their own cleanse regimen involving swallowing a mixture of 8 tablespoons of olive oil, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper—a protocol that Anthony refers to as the "disaster cleanse" or "master disaster cleanse." The interruption prompted Anthony to explain a fundamental difference in cleansing approaches: while some cleanses shock the system and require restriction, his philosophy emphasizes that people can actually eat incredible, healing food while cleansing, rather than depriving themselves through extreme measures.
On another occasion during a live cooking show, a friend named Bryce arrived unexpectedly at Anthony's door seeking food. Bryce explained that he was hungry after being "on a binge" for three days and recounted having recently been at Burning Man with someone named Summer, who had taken to calling him "rice" instead of his actual name, causing him such confusion that he couldn't remember his own name. Anthony allowed Bryce to sample the food being prepared on the show. Before leaving, Bryce departed in a somewhat disoriented state, appearing confused about which direction the door was.
Anthony has also hosted friends visiting him in person on multiple occasions, demonstrating a welcoming approach to accommodating guests. One notable instance involved a European friend who planned a special trip to Los Angeles in February specifically to experience the Medical Medium pizzas at Cafe Gratitude. This friend, who enjoys sampling different pizzas around the world, made visiting Anthony and trying these particular pizzas a dedicated travel destination, intending to stay for a couple of days and experience the pizzas on multiple occasions during the visit.
On another occasion, Anthony's friend Ocean arrived at his location during a live stream. Anthony welcomed him openly, offering Ocean the use of his couch to rest. Ocean appeared to be experiencing some form of withdrawal at the time and expressed uncertainty about whether he would be returning home that evening. Despite hosting the live stream, Anthony accommodated his friend's needs by allowing him to nap on the couch while Anthony continued with the show, demonstrating his willingness to provide comfort and rest to friends who needed support.
Anthony also mentions having people coming over and preparing guacamoles and other foods for his guests. He talks about wanting to accommodate his guests who prefer salt, and has mentioned a friend who witnessed someone get injured by an avocado stem knob in restaurant guacamole in Los Angeles, demonstrating his awareness of food safety issues that extend to his friends' experiences in dining contexts.
Friends in coffee business▾
Anthony mentions having close friends who own coffee shops and coffee businesses. He describes them as having 'a heart of gold, tremendous compassion.' He uses these relationships to illustrate that he's not blaming individual business owners, but rather exposing what's happening 'above us all' in the larger industry structure. He demonstrates support for people who make their living from caffeine even while teaching about its effects.
Friends wanting Anthony to move to Hawaii▾
Anthony talks about friends who are 'big time hippies' who tell him he needs to move to Hawaii, that he's got to move to the island. But he explains to them that Hawaii is 'GMO central' - it was sold to big pharma and they're growing non-stop GMO crops there, including 1000 varieties of GMO corn. He finds it ironic that his hippie friends who protest various things don't protest the fact that big pharma has taken over Hawaii with GMO crops.
Friends' Health Crises and Recovery Journeys▾
# Anthony William's Friends' Health Crises and Recovery Journeys
Anthony William maintains meaningful connections with numerous people navigating serious health challenges and personal struggles, and these relationships have profoundly shaped both his work and the perspectives of those he helps. His friendships span a wide range of illnesses, addictions, and recovery trajectories, revealing patterns in how people respond to chronic illness, substance dependency, and the transformative power of healing.
## Physical Illness and Recovery
Gloria is a woman Anthony speaks with every 4-5 years who had previously experienced a dramatic spiritual transformation. She survived a severe car crash after hearing an angelic voice warn her moments before impact. She was trapped in a mangled car but walked away completely unharmed when rescued—an experience that fundamentally changed her personality from being short, nasty, and mean to a better person. Later, Gloria devoted herself entirely to helping her cousin who developed chronic illness, taking her cousin to 50-80 doctors around the world, spending her own money, and staying with her cousin throughout the entire journey. Gloria told Anthony that witnessing her cousin's chronic illness was like experiencing "a thousand car accidents with a thousand angels." She described her cousin's soul development as far exceeding even her own dramatic spiritual transformation from the car crash, saying her cousin's soul was "unlike any soul there is" and that she looked at her cousin "as a hero... as if she was Martin Luther King and Gandhi." This observation reflects how Gloria recognized that her cousin's illness and perseverance represented a profound spiritual journey.
Anthony has worked with friends across various health conditions with differing levels of commitment to recovery protocols. One friend had struggled with asthma for years, visiting ten doctors and trying many health books and diets without success. The friend became burned out and resistant to any health-related approaches. After meeting Anthony and initially resisting, he eventually decided to try the Medical Medium approach, using the Cleanse to Heal book and the mono eating cleanse for deep cleansing. His asthma is now practically gone, and he has just started the protocol. Another friend came to Anthony with severe brain fog. When Anthony identified toxic heavy metals as the cause, the friend was shocked and frightened, asking "I got metal in my head? And that's why I'm thinking all fuzzy and I can't think and I'm all short circuiting and I feel like my wires are off and I feel like screws are falling out of my head?" The friend was initially resistant to consuming smoothies, but Anthony reassured him it would be manageable and explained the necessity of removing the metals.
A third friend experienced success in a different way—he got off his anti-anxiety medications using Anthony's anti-anxiety meditations, a breakthrough he enthusiastically shared. Anthony also worked with a female friend on anxiety, recommending she listen to his anxiety episode repeatedly, as she continued discovering missed information with each listen due to the depth of content provided.
Anthony has also guided friends through specific physical conditions. A friend with a sprained ankle wanted to continue his normal activities rather than rest, believing he couldn't stay still because he had too much to do. Anthony pushed back, comparing the friend's impatience to people who had been sick for ten years and asking what about them? The friend responded "I'm not them," prompting Anthony to tell him to "get his act together and chill out for a few days." Anthony has a friend with a hernia (inguinal hernia) whom he advises to avoid lifting heavy things and being careful about bloating or becoming overstuffed, as these conditions could cause the hernia to become problematic and require emergency surgery.
Two of Anthony's friends' experiences with eggs and neurological Lyme disease reveal the challenges of lifestyle change. One friend raises chickens in her backyard, letting them roam freely to eat insects, seeds, grass, and vegetable scraps. She finds this activity therapeutic both for the chickens' wellbeing and for collecting their eggs. However, she has neurological Lyme disease and eventually gave in to Anthony's advice to stop eating eggs, which broke her heart. She now collects the eggs for the therapeutic value of the activity itself but gives all of them to her neighbor, who also has neurological Lyme but refuses to give up eating eggs no matter what symptoms she suffers. Another friend had a fibroid that grew to the size of a bowling ball. She never did celery juice, heavy metal detox smoothies, or Medical Medium viral protocols. Additionally, she ate eggs daily—a couple of eggs per day—because she kept hearing about their protein content and was following a keto egg diet she saw young people doing on YouTube. Anthony had told her not to eat eggs because it would make the fibroid grow fast, but she continued eating them anyway. Anthony emphasizes he doesn't judge people who can't follow the protocols, understanding that making these changes is genuinely difficult.
One of Anthony's most significant friendships involves a longtime friend who was an Olympic athlete. This athlete developed chronic illness while traveling overseas, which caused him to lose his Olympic career and chances for a gold medal. He developed weak limbs, required constant MRIs and CAT scans, saw neurologists with no answers, and experienced crippling anxiety. Anthony helped him recover. The athlete's experience fundamentally changed his worldview about chronic illness. Before becoming ill himself, he had been dismissive of people with chronic illness, believing they should simply go to the doctor and resume exercising. When he developed chronic illness, he realized he was "ashamed" of his previous attitude toward a chronically ill person he knew, whom he had told to "get off that couch" and stop making excuses. After his recovery journey, the athlete reflected that preparing for the Olympics was "chump change" compared to what chronically ill people endure. He committed to never looking at another chronically ill person the same way again, recognizing that the perseverance required to recover from chronic illness far exceeds the demands of elite athletic competition.
## Substance Addiction and Recovery
Anthony William has witnessed firsthand the destructive impact of substance addiction on his friends' lives, with experiences spanning alcohol and marijuana dependency across different relationships and time periods.
Among his friends struggling with addiction, Anthony describes a best friend who has battled marijuana addiction for 20 years, spending his days sitting on the couch smoking weed while playing on his phone. This friend's wife initially participated in smoking with him but eventually wanted to quit and asked him to change his habits. When she made this request, he refused outright, telling her, "I'm not going to change for you we've been married all these years and I don't want to change for you." One morning, she left a note in the kitchen saying "I have to leave I'm gone" and departed. Rather than pursuing her or making any compromises regarding his marijuana use, the friend simply let her go. Anthony had warned his friend beforehand that this outcome would occur if he didn't quit, but the warning went unheeded. During their marriage, when his wife would return home from work and ask if he had worked that day, he would consistently claim to have "a few things in the works" or "a few ideas he was working on," though he never followed through on any of these projects. Anthony describes him as a "great guy incredible guy" but notes the situation with sadness, viewing the marijuana use as having destroyed what was once a great relationship. More recently, the friend contacted Anthony asking if he was hiring. Anthony explained that he could not offer him employment because the work at Medical Medium involves 20-hour days without vacations, where staff "kill themselves" to ensure people receive critical health information—a level of commitment and work ethic that stood in stark contrast to his friend's current circumstances, which Anthony pointedly illustrated by noting his friend didn't even have socks on.
In contrast to this long-term marijuana addiction, Anthony has also worked with friends recovering from alcohol dependency. He mentions a friend named Bryce who used to claim he could handle alcohol and easily drink multiple shots. Anthony also describes another friend who drank throughout his entire life but whom Anthony eventually convinced to quit drinking. This friend found an alternative that provided him with a powerful positive experience: wild blueberry juice, which he says gives him an entirely different rush compared to alcohol. He now fuels his treadmill workouts with wild blueberry juice and describes the experience as incredible, having successfully replaced his alcohol dependency with this healthier alternative.
## Broader Patterns
Through these friendships, Anthony William has witnessed how chronic illness and addiction can either strengthen spiritual development or serve as a catalyst for profound personal transformation and increased compassion. His friends' varying responses to his guidance—from enthusiastic adoption of protocols to resistant hesitation to outright refusal—reflect the real-world challenges people face when confronting serious health issues, substance dependencies, and the lifestyle changes required to address them.
Friends' Health Experiences and Life Challenges▾
# Anthony William's Friends' Health Experiences and Life Challenges
Anthony William has observed and supported multiple friends through significant emotional and relationship crises, using these personal experiences to illustrate the profound physical health impacts of emotional distress. One friend experiences seasonal depression around the holidays, particularly Christmas and New Year's, which manifests through increased appetite and comfort eating. When depressed, this friend consumes larger quantities of bagels with cream cheese, donuts, cookies, and ice cream. Anthony has also witnessed the aftermath of divorce firsthand with a friend who went through this experience, using this personal knowledge of his friends' emotional struggles as evidence of how emotional difficulties deplete B12 levels in the body.
A particularly striking example involves a friend who experienced a devastating relationship breakup three years prior. Two years after the breakup ended, the friend's hair began falling out. Anthony attributes this delayed hair loss to the friend's adrenals running constantly from the ongoing emotional trauma of the relationship ending, demonstrating how emotional stress can have physical consequences years after the initial event. Perhaps most dramatically, Anthony describes helping a friend who experienced a terrible loss approximately two years ago. This friend had never suffered from anxiety previously, but the devastating news literally knocked him off his feet and caused him to hit the ground. Anthony explained the physical mechanism behind what occurred: when the bad news arrived, the friend's brain experienced extreme heat in the emotional center, like lightning striking and cauterizing brain tissue. Following this traumatic event, anxiety gradually began creeping up in his friend, intensifying over time, despite the friend having no prior history of anxiety.
In another instance, Anthony helped a friend who presented with fatigue and a sore throat without an obvious cause. Upon inquiry, the friend revealed he had recently started dating someone new and had been doing "a lot of kissing." Anthony identified the symptoms as a new strain of strep that the friend had picked up from his romantic partner and advised him on how to address it.
Beyond emotional crises, Anthony William has repeatedly encountered friends and acquaintances who hold strong attachments to certain foods and dietary practices, often resisting his nutritional guidance when it conflicts with their established habits. One notable instance involved a friend who gave Anthony a bag of kale chips that were enthusiastically consumed and praised. When Anthony examined the package, he discovered ingredients including nutritional yeast and natural flavors, even though the package advertised non-GMO, gluten-free, and no additive preservatives. When questioned about these additions, the friend asked what nutritional yeast was and whether it was healthy. Anthony's assessment was that the kale had been "dressed up to be something more than just kale" with the nutritional yeast, highlighting how processing and added ingredients can obscure the true nature of food.
Anthony has also observed that certain friends have developed conditioned preferences for heavily processed fruits. One friend exemplified this tendency by stating they would only enjoy an apple if it came as part of apple pie with added table sugar. This friend would not eat plain fruit because it wasn't sweet enough, demonstrating what Anthony sees as a modern palate conditioned to expect higher levels of sweetness through processing.
When it comes to specific dietary choices, Anthony has found friends resistant to his concerns about certain foods. He has a friend who regularly eats wild-caught tuna, and when Anthony questioned this choice by asking "really, you like mercury?" the friend did not change their eating habits. Another friend had undergone tongue piercing years prior, and Anthony advised them to remove the piercing and allow it to heal, explaining that piercings shock the tongue because the immune system needs the tongue left undisturbed.
Perhaps most significantly, Anthony has encountered strong emotional and ideological attachments to eggs among his friends. Some have explicitly told him that while he can help them with anything health-related, he should not touch the subject of eggs, declaring "It's my lifeblood. It's my religion. Don't touch it." This resistance extends even to medical professionals. Anthony has had doctors reach out for health advice and ask for his help with various issues, but when he raises concerns about eggs, they firmly decline, saying "No way, you can't go there." This suggests that for many people, certain foods have transcended nutritional considerations to become identity markers or matters of personal conviction that resist external input.
Friendship with Olympic athletes▾
Anthony mentions that he has Olympic athlete friends he's known for years who talk to him about their injuries and healing. He gives an example of an athlete who injured their leg and wanted to go back to full throttle immediately, but he advised them about the rehab process being similar to chronic illness healing.
Fruit tossing habit and wine glass incident▾
Anthony William mentions that he's been tossing fruit in the air his whole life, and someone recently told him to stop throwing fruit around. He shares a story from a couple years ago when he was at a friend's house and threw a piece of fruit in the air, which knocked over a wine glass. The wine spilled on his friend's white carpet. He found it funny because he wasn't drinking wine himself.
Garden as Community and Personal Healing▾
# Anthony William: Garden as Community and Personal Healing
Anthony William's garden experiences have served as catalysts for both spiritual lessons and practical demonstrations of natural healing. These moments, occurring in his Maine garden, reveal the intersection of community connection, personal humility, and faith-based healing practices.
A significant formative moment occurred when a neighbor came to express gratitude for Anthony's help with his wife, who had suffered from arsenic poisoning that no doctors had been able to diagnose. The woman had been confined to a wheelchair for decades, unable to walk, but Anthony's guidance had restored her mobility. The neighbor expressed amazement at how Anthony had discovered answers that medical professionals could not find. However, in his younger years, Anthony responded to this gratitude with arrogance. While working in the garden pulling up beets and onions, he stood up and boasted to his neighbor, declaring "That's because I'm always right. Never forget it, damn it. And I'm never wrong, never gonna be wrong, and it's always gonna be like that. I'll never be wrong ever, ever, ever. And you better not forget it." He was emphatic and repeated his claims of infallibility to drive the point home.
This hubris was immediately interrupted by a dramatic physical reckoning. After shaking off the dirt from the vegetables, Anthony stood up and took a few steps before stepping directly on a garden hoe. The hoe slipped up and struck him forcefully in the face, knocking him completely unconscious. He found himself flat on his back in the garden, awakening to see his neighbor standing over him, concerned about his condition. In that vulnerable moment of physical vulnerability, Spirit spoke to Anthony with a clear and corrective message that fundamentally reshaped his spiritual understanding. Spirit told him: "Remember this and never forget it. I'm always right and you're wrong. Keep that in mind, whatever you do. I'm always right. And Anthony, you're not right. Spirit's always right. And you're always wrong. Because you're gonna make mistakes because you're human." The message continued, emphasizing that as a human being, Anthony would inevitably fall prey to trends, bogus studies, and other pitfalls in both health and medicine. Spirit reinforced that while humans are fallible and prone to error, Spirit's guidance is infallible. Anthony was instructed to listen to Spirit's direction for accurate information, because attempting to make decisions on his own without Spirit's guidance would likely result in wrong decisions. This incident became a pivotal moment that Anthony recalls whenever tempted to take personal credit for his work or to trust his own judgment over spiritual guidance, serving as a permanent reminder of the need to acknowledge Spirit as the true source of his healing abilities.
Beyond spiritual lessons, Anthony's garden also demonstrates the efficacy of natural remedies. On another occasion, he sustained a deep thorn injury from a blackberry bush while picking blackberries and black raspberries. The thorn tip became lodged in his finger, an injury type that typically takes considerable time to heal. However, when he applied Propolis Pure to the cut, it healed much faster than his cuts normally heal, providing a practical example of how garden-based natural remedies can accelerate the body's healing processes.
Gas station attendant story▾
Anthony tells a story about how gas station attendants used to pump gas for customers and would die after 10-20 years from petrochemical disease, just from breathing in gasoline fumes all day. He points out that now 16-year-old daughters and sons pump their own gas, breathing in fumes once or twice a week, but no one questions whether this is bad for kids who will pump gas for the rest of their lives.
Generational differences in health perspective▾
Anthony observed a significant difference between young people now versus decades ago. He says that many decades ago when he was doing this work, younger people did think they would be 60 years old someday - they believed they'd be 55, 64, etc. But now, the younger crowd doesn't think they're going to be 60 years old. He finds this unbelievable and concerning because it makes people not want to take care of themselves for the long term. Some don't even believe they'll be 40.
Geographic background▾
Anthony William describes coming from 'way up north' where there's a really short growing season with only a couple months of sun if you're lucky. He jokes that where he comes from, summertime is basically just July, and by August fall is already coming. This creates challenges for growing multiple crops of quick-growing vegetables like radishes in a single season.
Gets tired of his own voice▾
When someone commented it was weird hearing his voice after listening to podcasts, AW said 'It's a voice that I don't even like to hear myself. I get tired of hearing my Anthony William voice.'
Getting 'snowblind' from signing books▾
After signing books for hours, AW said he gets 'snowblind' and can't see well enough to read names clearly. He relies on Spirit to help him instead of reading.
Getting answers and information from Spirit since childhood▾
# Getting Answers and Information from Spirit Since Childhood
Anthony William has relied on spiritual guidance to obtain answers about illness and health since childhood. Recognizing that conventional science and research were unable to adequately explain why people become sick, he turned to Spirit for the information that eluded the medical establishment. This necessity to look beyond conventional sources shaped his entire approach to understanding disease and healing.
Throughout his work, Anthony has continued to receive detailed information directly from Spirit. In one instance, he was in his office receiving spiritual guidance about brain shot therapies—information he carefully wrote down as it came to him. When faced with this knowledge, he sought Spirit's counsel on how to properly warn people about these treatments, understanding that within the alternative health world, results do not come instantaneously and people need to be informed about the unique characteristics of different therapies. The brain shots, he learned, worked quickly—a distinction that required him to forewarn the public, as this rapid efficacy differed markedly from typical alternative health treatments.
The information Anthony received from Spirit since childhood has been compiled into books that have reached a wide audience. These works have become instrumental in saving lives, demonstrating the practical value and real-world application of the spiritual guidance he has channeled throughout his life.
Getting calls from people who haven't contacted him in years▾
Anthony mentions getting phone calls and texts 'left and right' from people he hasn't talked to in years, some family members he hasn't spoken to in a year or two, all reaching out because they're getting sick. They're calling saying 'oh my god, I think I'm sick' and he's directing them to zinc shock therapy and other protocols.
Getting emotional about the meditation▾
During the live stream, Anthony got choked up and emotional talking about the breathing light meditation because he knows that when people have this tool in their hands, they can make unmeasurable changes. He had to pause because he was getting emotional about the power of this tool for healing.
Getting gold stars as a child▾
As a child, did you ever wish for a gold star on your paper at school? I did. I never got a gold star because I'm not a genius.
Gift discovery and childhood struggles▾
Anthony was given the gift of hearing Spirit perfectly clear from outside his body at age 4, when Spirit told him his grandmother had lung cancer when nobody knew. He describes it as hearing someone talking to him perfectly clear, not from inside but from outside his body, with no control over when he hears it. As a child, he struggled with this gift and wanted to cut out Spirit's voice because it was tiring to constantly hear what was wrong with people's health. He wanted to talk directly to God instead of hearing Spirit as the 'middle man', but couldn't hear God directly even though Spirit told him the gift came from God.
Gift's purpose discovered in childhood▾
When Anthony was young, he asked Spirit if the gift was for him. Spirit told him no, the gift was for everyone else. He was heartbroken as a child when he learned this. As he got older, he realized the gift was actually seeing others heal and get the information they need.
Gluten-free advocacy struggle▾
Anthony mentions that he got 'untold agony' and 'unbelievable smack' for trying to get people to go gluten-free 35 years ago. This was during a time when gluten-free wasn't accepted, and he faced significant resistance for promoting it.
Gold stars at school▾
As a child, Anthony never got a gold star on his papers at school because he says he's not a genius. He relates to the feeling of wanting that gold star for what it represented - achievement, worthiness, approval.
Grandfather lemon dinner story▾
Anthony creates a fictional family dinner scenario where he describes giving his grandfather a lemon for dinner, with the grandfather cutting it open with a fork and knife saying 'oh, just like I like it. This lemon is medium rare.' He uses this absurd imagery to show how ridiculous it would be if people actually ate lemons as their main meals, contrasting with the false accusations that lemons are causing everyone's health problems.
Grandmother's health recoveries and healing experiences▾
# Grandmother's Health Recoveries and Healing Experiences
Anthony William's grandmother experienced significant health challenges throughout her life, facing both physical ailments and the dismissive attitudes of the medical establishment during her era. In the 1950s, she suffered from chronic fatigue, a condition for which she sought medical help. However, her experience highlighted a stark class divide in how doctors treated patients' complaints. When she reported her exhaustion to physicians, she was dismissed and called names rather than taken seriously. This contrasted sharply with the treatment afforded to wealthier patients who presented with similar symptoms—doctors would suggest they join clubs or pursue hobbies as remedies. For poor people like Anthony's grandmother, the medical response was far harsher; they were labeled as liars or manipulative rather than helped.
Beyond the chronic fatigue, Anthony's grandmother also experienced significant hair loss stemming from poor diet and other health problems. During this period, Anthony received guidance from the Spirit of Compassion, which communicated a simple but specific directive: "Peas for my grandmother." Following this spiritual guidance, Anthony provided his grandmother with green peas, which proved effective in helping her hair regrow. This experience with his grandmother's health recovery became an example in Anthony's understanding of how dietary interventions, particularly specific whole foods, could address nutritional deficiencies and support the body's natural healing processes.
Gravestone joke▾
Anthony joked about what would be on his gravestone/headstone: 'Everything was for free go to the library' - referencing how he always tells people they can get his books for free at the library if they don't have money.
Great-grandfather's influence and legacy▾
Anthony William's great-grandfather played a formative role in shaping both his identity and his understanding of nutrition. Most notably, the great-grandfather is credited with bestowing upon Anthony William the title "Medical Medium"—a fact that Anthony William has repeatedly emphasized against media mischaracterization. He expresses frustration that news outlets and reference sources like Wikipedia persistently describe him as a "self-proclaimed medical medium" when the accurate attribution should credit his great-grandfather with the proclamation. Anthony William views this as a significant detail that the media refuses to correct despite his efforts to clarify the record.
Beyond the naming legacy, Anthony William's great-grandfather demonstrated remarkable health through his distinctive lifestyle centered on fruit consumption. He ate fruit abundantly—living off of it as a primary food source while also growing it himself on his property. Despite this heavy fruit diet, which contradicts common assumptions about fruit causing dental problems, he maintained exceptional dental health well into his advanced years. His teeth remained free of problems for decades, extending into his 70s and beyond with minimal dental issues compared to his peers. This longevity and robust health served as a powerful living example to Anthony William that fruit consumption, even in quantities far exceeding what Anthony William himself has consumed, does not necessarily lead to dental deterioration.
The great-grandfather's farm also featured diverse nut trees that demonstrated his attentiveness to nutritional variation. He cultivated different walnut tree varieties with strikingly different fat compositions—one variety was extremely high in fat, with a taste and richness comparable to eating a buttered croissant, while a different walnut variety on the same property contained hardly any fat and was nearly fat-free. Similarly, his pecan tree was notably rich and high in fat, whereas a pecan tree of the same variety grown on his aunt's property with different soil conditions contained significantly less fat content, roughly half to a quarter of the original tree's fat levels. These observations highlighted the profound impact that variety selection and growing conditions can have on the nutritional profile of nuts.
Great-grandmother phone call roleplay▾
Anthony does an elaborate roleplay of calling someone's great-grandmother who supposedly ate butter her whole life and is fine at 94. In the roleplay, he reveals she actually had two miscarriages, hysterectomy from fibroids, cervical cancer, gallbladder removal at 50, high blood pressure, takes statins and many medications, had leg infection requiring 3-month hospitalization, has two stents in arteries from heart attacks, lost all teeth at 60 from TMJ, and takes anti-anxiety medications. The great-grandson who left the comment doesn't know any of this health history because he only visits once a month.
Great-grandmother's persistent perfume▾
Anthony William's great-grandmother had perfume that is still present in her old house even though she has been gone for a decade and lived to be 102 years old. The perfume smell persists indefinitely, illustrating how long-lasting these chemical fragrances are.
Grocery and health food store experiences▾
# Grocery and Health Food Store Experiences
Anthony William's experiences in grocery and health food stores span from his early years working in produce to his current inability to shop publicly, reflecting both his pioneering health advocacy and the challenges of widespread recognition.
## Early Career in Grocery Retail
When Anthony was 14 years old working in a grocery store, he began recommending cilantro to customers for heavy metal detox at a time when the herb was virtually unknown for this purpose. People would walk past cilantro thinking it was merely a weed pulled from the side of the road. His recommendations were so frequent and compelling that he convinced the grocery store manager and produce manager to order large quantities of cilantro. He was sharing information about cilantro for mercury removal through Spirit long before it became recognized anywhere else in the health community.
## Health Food Store Lecture Incidents
Approximately 25 to 30 years ago, Anthony conducted presentations about avocados at health food stores. These presentations generated intense emotional reactions from audience members who opposed his recommendations. In one incident, someone became so upset about his avocado promotion that they ran up to his cart, tipped it over, and caused avocados to roll away before running out of the store. In another similar incident occurring around the same time period, a man "went bananas" and "went berserk" during an avocado presentation at a large health food store that had stocked avocados specifically because they were rare and difficult to find anywhere. This man knocked over displays, kicked avocados down the aisles, and argued vehemently that avocados were toxic and poisonous based on what he had learned in Alternative Health circles. These incidents illustrate how emotionally charged and controversial avocado recommendations were during that era.
## Client Encounters in Public Spaces
One of Anthony's first clients with restless legs syndrome experienced such dramatic relief from her condition that she would scream at the top of her lungs whenever she encountered him in the grocery store. Her enthusiastic reactions were so loud that other shoppers would wonder if something terrible or wonderful had occurred. She would rush over to him while he was stocking shelves with soup cans, knock over his displays in her excitement, and embrace him to express her gratitude for healing her condition.
## Current Shopping Limitations
Anthony William can no longer shop for groceries due to the constant flow of readings he receives and widespread public recognition. When he enters a store, people immediately recognize him and approach asking for health advice about topics like celery juice and other remedies. He finds it difficult to turn people down and consequently spends extended periods providing readings and guidance instead of shopping. A routine 45-minute grocery shopping trip can extend into a 6-hour ordeal. In one instance, he arrived at a store at 8:30 in the morning hoping to purchase mangoes and did not leave until 1:30 in the afternoon, never completing his shopping.
The physical and mental toll of conducting multiple readings in public spaces has become severe. When he performs too many readings while shopping, he experiences "snow blindness" that prevents him from properly identifying and selecting produce. He attempts to shop during early morning hours when fewer people are present, but even these efforts are often unsuccessful. After conducting readings in public, he must sit in his car and wait for his eyesight to return to normal before he is able to drive home. The cumulative exhaustion from these extended shopping encounters leaves him collapsed in his car, requiring someone to drive him home afterward. As a result, Anthony has not been to a food store in a considerable length of time due to the impossibility of completing a shopping trip without these extended interruptions.
Grogu sending telepathic pain▾
Throughout the live stream, Anthony mentions that Grogu (his Baby Yoda figure) has been sending him telepathic pain waves to his psychic brain every 10-20 minutes, causing him real pain and mental abuse. He says Grogu uses 'the force' to send pain directly to his psychic mind, and he needs the wild blueberry juice to help repair this mental abuse.
Growing Food at Home: Mulberries, Tomatoes, and Berries Throughout Life▾
# Anthony William's Lifelong Practice of Growing Food at Home
Anthony William has maintained a comprehensive approach to home food cultivation throughout his entire life, with particular emphasis on mulberries, tomatoes, and various berry varieties. This practice extends beyond personal consumption to reflect a deep philosophical commitment to growing foods he believes are beneficial for human health and healing.
His mulberry cultivation represents the most extensive and long-standing dimension of his horticultural work, rooted in a profound family tradition shared with his father. Together, they have planted thousands of mulberry trees over the years, developing expertise in numerous varieties that span a remarkable range of characteristics and colors. Their collection includes varieties with notably big berries and little berries, wild varieties, white mulberries, black mulberries, dark blue mulberries, and pink mulberries. Anthony's father remains deeply engaged in the work, currently undertaking an extensive propagation project that involves taking hundreds of cuttings from mulberry trees with the intention of propagating and planting them. This physically demanding work requires repeated bending, yet Anthony's father maintains his commitment, viewing the physical demands as necessary for maintaining his fitness and recognizing that stopping would be detrimental to his wellbeing.
Beyond their established growing operations, Anthony actively engages in seeking out wild and established mulberry trees during his travels. When he spots mulberry trees at rest stops where the berries are not yet ripe, he makes note of their locations and plans strategic returns at the optimal time for harvest. During these planned returns, he brings buckets and collects thousands of falling mulberries—both the purple-black and white varieties—which he takes home to freeze for later use and preservation. His deep knowledge of mulberry growing has given him practical expertise in the subject, and he has indicated willingness to share detailed insights and tips with other mulberry grower connoisseurs.
His tomato cultivation spans his entire life and includes sun-gold tomatoes and various cherry tomato varieties. Anthony emphasizes the healing nature of tomato growing and highlights the nutritional density of sun-gold tomatoes in particular, noting their mineral content and beneficial properties for glucose regulation, liver healing, and diabetes prevention. His berry growing experience is equally extensive, encompassing mulberries, blueberries, wild blueberries, and other varieties. He maintains a particular tradition of picking wild strawberries every year, describing them as tiny but incredibly nutrient-dense and sweet. However, he notes that wild rabbits frequently get to the strawberries before he does, adding a competitive element to this aspect of his cultivation practice.
Throughout all his gardening endeavors, Anthony emphasizes that he grows these foods because they are good for people, viewing the cultivation process itself as fundamentally healing. This philosophy unites his various horticultural practices into a cohesive practice rooted in both personal tradition and a commitment to health and wellbeing.
Growing up in Maine: Family, Heritage, and Geographic Roots▾
# Growing up in Maine: Family, Heritage, and Geographic Roots
Anthony William spent most of his life in Maine, growing up in the woods with a family that provided a solid, supportive foundation for his development. He acknowledges that while his childhood wasn't picture perfect—nothing ever is—he has been fortunate and lucky to have had such a supportive family environment. Without their support, he has stated that his life would have been significantly harder. He maintains close ties to Maine and has family members still living there, often expressing his affection for the state by asking people to pass along greetings to his family and "everybody up there."
His family background is deeply rooted in Maine's maritime and agricultural heritage. The William family has a long history of fishing and lobstering, though Anthony notes the economic realities of these industries—those actually catching the lobster or fish do not make the money; rather, it is the middleman who transports the product to stores who profits from the labor. He draws parallels between this dynamic and celery farming, where farmers do all the hard work yet struggle financially. Mulberries hold particular significance in his family's life; Anthony and his family have grown them his whole life, and he describes his father as "a mulberry expert beyond all mulberry experts," with plans to have him appear on the Medical Medium podcast to discuss mulberry trees.
Anthony's childhood in Maine was shaped by formative experiences in nature and moments of spiritual significance. He and a friend once attempted a honey foraging adventure after spotting a beehive while on a trail, devising a plan to throw a rock and hit the hive with a stick before running away to collect the honey. The scheme did not go as intended—while his friend suffered a bee sting, Anthony himself escaped without being stung. Water held particular significance in his childhood memories, with intense thirst during family hikes feeling like "crawling from the desert," and the relief of receiving a big bottle of spring water bringing him back to life. He also remembers hot days in the backyard with friends when everyone would gather around the hose for pure water refreshment, and a blazing afternoon during a high school soccer game when everyone eagerly anticipated reaching the water fountain.
A specific oak tree became an important sanctuary during Anthony's younger years. During times of hardship, conflict, or personal struggle, he would visit this tree, sit by it, and occupy himself by picking up acorns to flick and grabbing twigs to snap. Through these visits, Spirit communicated to him that whatever he was worried about, battled, or struggled with would eventually pass—just as the storms the oak tree endured came and went while the tree itself remained standing. Years later, after moving away and into adulthood, someone visited that area and photographed the same oak tree, confirming it was still standing after all those decades, having survived through all the storms Anthony had experienced in his life.
One of the most pivotal moments in Anthony's childhood came at age eight when he visited a dump near his home with his father to discard garbage. At that location, Spirit provided him with a profound revelation about liver function by using the organized waste piles as a teaching tool. Spirit explained that different piles represented different types of toxins stored in liver compartments: scrap metal represented heavy metals, aerosol cans represented petrochemicals, and furniture represented formaldehyde, among others. In the same revelation, Spirit taught Anthony that possessions carry emotions attached to them, and when toxins from these items become stored in the liver, the associated emotions are stored alongside them. This experience proved to be a watershed moment in which Anthony's understanding of the liver's function deepened significantly beyond his previous ability to simply scan people's bodies.
Anthony's heritage is Italian, and he has expressed a strong passion for Italian cuisine and food quality, particularly handpicked San Marzano tomatoes and traditional Italian food preparation. His identity as a New England boy remains central to how he understands himself, even in his adult life living in California. He has noted notable differences between New England and California, even in unexpected observations—for instance, comparing the size and characteristics of squirrels between the two regions, noting that California squirrels are noticeably different from the New England squirrels of his childhood. Among notable figures from Maine, Anthony jokingly notes that only he, Kurt Russell, and Stephen King hail from the state.
Has been bullied▾
When someone mentioned being bullied their whole life, AW responded: 'I've been bullied. I have. I've been bullied.'
Has siblings who witnessed his abilities▾
I have two others and they heard all of this growing up. And, you know, my family gave me great support.
Health and medical practices▾
Anthony William attributes his lifelong dental health—never having experienced a cavity, dental drilling, or fillings—not to genetics but to spiritual guidance received from a young age. According to his account, Spirit directed him toward specific foods that simultaneously removed mercury and heavy metals from his body while mineralizing his teeth. These dietary instructions sometimes involved unconventional items, including red clover tops (which he would chew and spit out), sea plantain foraged from beaches, and various wild plants from lawns. By following these spiritual directives to consume certain foods instead of others, he developed an approach to oral health rooted in detoxification and mineral supplementation through whole food sources.
Regarding his broader health philosophy, William has clarified that he is not opposed to blood work as a diagnostic tool, despite concerns he has raised about medical practices more generally. He has stated: "I'm not. I think it's a powerful tool. I believe in it. It's got to be done right. You've got to know how to protect yourself." This position reflects his view that while blood work can be valuable for health assessment, it requires proper understanding and protective measures for optimal use.
Health inspector incident at the store▾
At his organic store, Anthony William put a sign on the egg refrigerator that read: 'eat at your own risk - eggs feed pathogens. They feed viruses and bacteria inside the body. If you're someone struggling with an illness or a symptom, beware, this could actually bring it about, cause a future flare and take you to a place of poor health.' This was 25 years ago when people knew even less about pathogens than today. Some customers were confused and worried, thinking the eggs might have salmonella and didn't understand what the sign meant. One day, a state health inspector was standing by the egg department, reading the sign and asking questions about it. The store manager explained what it meant. The inspector laughed and walked out.
Hearing Spirit of Compassion since age 4▾
Anthony William explains that he has been hearing Spirit of Compassion since age 4. He describes this ability with complexity—referring to it as 'the curse of hearing Spirit of Compassion since I was age four' and part of his 'torturous life of having to do what I have to do,' yet also acknowledging the freedom that comes from receiving original information that helps people heal. This lifelong connection has given him thick skin, as he explains: 'hearing Spirit of Compassion since age four has given me a very strong skin because it really sucked. So, you know, and I had to really develop a skin.' He recognizes that some people find this ability difficult to understand while others accept it more readily. He notes that because most people don't have this same conversation with Spirit of Compassion, they feel lost and go from doctor to doctor seeking answers. Anthony reassures people that his books contain Spirit of Compassion's answers and encourages them to have faith that they can find their way through the information systematically or by letting angels guide them to open the book to the right pages.
Hearing spirits since childhood▾
Anthony mentions that he has been hearing spirits since he was four years old, referencing this as part of why his life has been difficult and why he uses humor and sarcasm as coping mechanisms.
Heavy Metal Detox: Origins and Personal Practice▾
# Heavy Metal Detox: Origins and Personal Practice
Anthony William's teachings on heavy metal toxicity represent original Medical Medium information that dates back years and has been disseminated through published material reaching millions of copies. His core assertion is that toxic heavy metals are responsible for conditions including autism and ADHD. He credits himself as the original source of this information and has observed that lawyers now run advertisements linking metals to autism—a development he attributes entirely to Medical Medium teachings, though he notes these sources function as "poachers" who fail to cite back to the original material.
William's personal heavy metal detoxification practice reflects a disciplined and multi-faceted approach. His primary tool is a heavy metal detox preparation that he creates using a melon as the base. He cuts open the melon and combines it with five specific ingredients: spirulina, barley grass juice powder, liquid dulse (DOL liquid), wild blueberries, and fresh cilantro, which he chops and incorporates directly into the melon. He describes this combination as essentially a melon smoothie bowl, emphasizing that this five-ingredient formula is central to his method.
To ensure efficacy and consistency, William maintains a dedicated journaling practice to track his detoxification efforts. He emphasizes the importance of recording his daily intake and documents the experience of consuming the detox ingredients each day through written notation. He tracks this consumption across multiple timeframes—daily, weekly, and monthly—to maintain accountability and consistency with his personal regimen.
When addressing criticism about his use of metal silverware despite warnings about toxic heavy metals, William explains that his consistent detoxification practices allow him to safely use such utensils. He states that through regular consumption of the heavy metal detox smoothie and use of Vimergy spirulina and barley grass juice powder, he removes more metals from his body than enter through his utensil use, thereby maintaining a net negative accumulation.
Helping people across different life circumstances▾
# Anthony William's Work Helping People Across Different Life Circumstances
Anthony William has extended his guidance and support to individuals facing diverse and deeply challenging situations throughout his years of work. His approach to helping others spans physical health crises, emotional trauma, and spiritual understanding.
In matters of profound emotional pain, Anthony has supported friends experiencing severe betrayal. He describes encountering a friend who had experienced such devastating betrayal that he no longer wanted to live. Through teaching this friend about soul connection—a concept central to his spiritual philosophy—Anthony was able to offer perspective that gave his friend a path forward. By helping him understand that his soul could not be taken away by anyone, regardless of what others had done to him, Anthony provided a framework through which his friend could see himself as fundamentally intact and capable of recovery.
Anthony has also intervened in acute medical emergencies with people he has known for many years. He personally saved a couple of old friends who contacted him from the hospital while suffering from bowel obstruction, a condition neither had previously experienced. These friends were in critical condition with medical equipment already in place—pipes down their throats—when they reached out to him, and his involvement proved instrumental in their survival.
His work has extended significantly to helping medical doctors who themselves have become ill. Over many years, Anthony has assisted numerous sick physicians through Medical Medium information and guidance. One doctor friend he was helping had been too unwell to work for an extended period. As this doctor began healing through the information Anthony provided, he reached a point where he could take his children out on a boat for the first time since becoming ill—a significant milestone. The doctor's recovery continued as he was able to visit a restaurant and see his grandma, accomplishments that represented the most activity he had managed in a considerable time. However, this period of progress was followed by a temporary setback, illustrating the nonlinear nature of healing journeys.
Anthony has also provided practical, immediate support to individuals in emotionally complex situations. When someone attending a spiritual retreat contacted him, they were caught between conflicting experiences—the retreat had offered amazing positive moments but was also characterized by negativity, poor organization, harsh weather conditions including rain and freezing cold, and negative people. Struggling to process these contradictions, the person received specific guidance from Anthony: find raw honey and consume two tablespoons however possible, whether on celery, an apple, bread, or straight. Anthony explained that this would heighten the positive experiences while causing the negative aspects to drop away like a rock. The person followed this advice and was able to extract and focus on the positive elements of the retreat experience in a way that stood out from how other attendees were managing—rising above the difficulties with a clarity and resilience that distinguished her from those around her.
Throughout the years, Anthony has also supported war veterans dealing with specific trauma triggers. He has worked with many veterans who experience ongoing torture from firework-related triggers, which extend beyond just the Fourth of July celebrations. These veterans are affected by fireworks in their neighborhoods, set off in their driveways and throughout their surroundings, creating ongoing distress that Anthony has sought to help them navigate and overcome.
Helping severe cases for decades▾
For the last three plus decades, Anthony has been helping people recover from some of the most devastating cases of Crohn's and colitis. He's had to help and take on people who are bedridden with hundreds of symptoms - people that trendy diet experts don't want to deal with because they're too sick. His heart is with helping these severely ill people who have tried everything.
His 50th birthday memory▾
When a caller mentioned it was their 50th birthday, Anthony responded: 'I remember my 50th'
Historical advocacy for avocado▾
35 years ago, Anthony couldn't get anybody to use avocado as butter. He got laughed off of lecture stages for saying avocado was good for people. 30+ years ago people would say avocados were poisonous and would cause heart attacks. Doctors thought avocado was toxic. He told people to replace butter with avocado, which was considered so bizarre that people couldn't handle that truth.
Hoarding the Brain Meditation▾
Anthony William admits he 'coveted' the Brain Meditation for years throughout his life and feels bad about it. Spirit of Compassion gave him this meditation when he was younger, but he only shared it with some close friends and family over the years. It recently dawned on him to question why he wasn't giving everyone access to this meditation, and he decided to include it in the podcast so everyone would have every chance to heal.
Home Cooking Demonstrations and Food Preparation▾
Anthony William incorporates cooking demonstrations and meal preparation into his live streaming and content creation routine, using these sessions to connect with his audience while preparing meals at home. He has been known to cook lentil stew and potato waffles during live streams, preparing them fresh on camera while simultaneously engaging with viewers. Before beginning dinner preparations, he asks his audience if they are comfortable with him eating during the broadcast, demonstrating consideration for viewer preferences. When demonstrating potato waffles, he welcomes viewers into his personal kitchen space, saying "thank you for being in my kitchen you guys" and emphasizing that he is "at your service."
His dinner preparations showcase ingredients from his personal garden, which he frequently highlights during cooking. His lentil stew typically includes fresh tomatoes, red bell peppers, onions, and garden-grown herbs such as oregano and thyme. He also incorporates collard greens and cayenne peppers from his garden, along with generous amounts of fresh cilantro, which he treats as a leafy green rather than merely a garnish or flavoring agent. When preparing potato waffles, he adds his garden cayenne peppers and shows a preference for maple syrup.
Anthony acknowledges that he has a tendency to make messes while cooking, noting that people familiar with his cooking shows know he "messes up a lot in different areas" with "crazy spillage" and things hitting the floor. He has expressed an intention to try to minimize this, though he accepts that making messes is part of his cooking style. He was pleased when a particular cooking session went better than usual.
When cooking off-camera, Anthony's approach to herb preparation is notably different from what he does during live streams. Normally, he throws herb stems and all directly into his cooking, but he modifies this practice when broadcasting to viewers. Recognizing that audiences watching may object to finding thick stems in their own cooking, he removes the stems more carefully during live demonstrations. Similarly, he adjusts his cilantro portions when streaming—typically using much larger amounts when cooking privately, but deliberately keeping portions smaller during broadcasts out of awareness that viewers are observing his technique.
Anthony has noted a particular aversion to one aspect of cooking: he dislikes chopping onions because they cause him to cry. Despite this discomfort, onions remain a regular ingredient in his dinner preparations.
His content creation schedule has evolved based on audience accessibility. He adjusted his live stream timing to begin earlier in the evening, as he found that streaming at later times prevented people from different parts of the world from being able to watch. He has broadcast his cooking and question-answering sessions on platforms like TikTok as part of his evening routine.
Home Cooking vs. Professional/Restaurant Quality▾
Anthony William has been candid about the differences between preparing his Medical Medium recipes at home versus having them professionally prepared by chef Alejandro at Organic Crush. He acknowledges that his own cooking skills fall short of professional standards, particularly when it comes to technique. During a live cooking demonstration, he expressed embarrassment about how he had drizzled dressing on a salad earlier, describing his approach as simply "squirt squirt squirt," and recognized that there is a more refined way of doing it—the kind of professional technique that Alejandro employs.
When discussing specific dishes, William has been forthright about the quality difference between his home cooking and the restaurant versions. He notes that when he prepares his Medical Medium recipes at home, they don't taste as good as when prepared at Organic Crush. This disparity is particularly noticeable with dishes like the flatbread potatoes. According to William, the same recipe produces noticeably different results depending on who is preparing it and where it's being made. He explains that while his recipes are "amazing, medical, powerful medical recipes" in their own right, the experience is transformed entirely when an experienced chef like Alejandro takes them and applies professional principles and techniques available at Organic Crush.
William emphasizes that having a professional chef elevate his recipes takes them to another level entirely. He describes the distinction as "an entirely different experience" and "much different than when I make it at home." Rather than dismissing his own cooking efforts, William presents this difference as a natural consequence of professional expertise and restaurant resources versus home kitchen preparation, framing it as a recognition of specialized culinary skill rather than a criticism of the recipes themselves.
Hospital experiences in the 1980s▾
# Anthony William's Hospital Experiences in the 1980s
During the 1980s, Anthony William witnessed and reflected upon medical practices that he found problematic and illustrative of what he viewed as backwards medical thinking of the era. One memorable scene from 1982 involved a hospital emergency room where a doctor attributed someone's symptoms to an anxiety attack caused by eating avocado, while overlooking the person's consumption of bacon and hot dog with nitrates—foods William believed were far more likely culprits. This incident exemplified, in his view, the misguided dietary blame that characterized medical wisdom at the time.
Beyond this specific incident, William visited hospitals throughout the 1980s and into the early 1990s to see patients who had requested his help. During visits in 1985, 1987, 1989, and continuing into the following decade, he observed the widespread practice of patients smoking cigarettes directly in their hospital beds while undergoing treatment. Walking down hospital hallways, he witnessed this smoking occurring regardless of patients' conditions—whether they were being treated for anxiety attacks, fevers, or other ailments. Family members would invite William to visit hospitalized relatives because they hoped he might have answers, and notably, doctors themselves would seek conversations with him during these visits. These experiences gave William firsthand exposure to hospital culture and medical practices of the period that he later reflected upon critically.
Hospitality and food flexibility▾
Anthony explained that when friends or family come to his house, he's not the 'food police' and will make them anything they want, even if it means going to the store to buy things that are on the Medical Medium 'warning don't eat if you're sick' list. He emphasized wanting to be a good host and won't force celery juice or Medical Medium foods on guests.
Hotel bar scenario with Mrs. Ferguson▾
Anthony creates a humorous scenario set at AWS Bar and Grill, which has hotel rooms upstairs and a bar and grill downstairs. In the joke, Mrs. Ferguson comes downstairs while Mr. Ferguson is upstairs on the toilet, too sick with a 'log jam.' Anthony identifies this as 'an old joke from one of the past lives that we did.' He also uses this moment to tell viewers to 'look out for imposters these days.'
How he got into Heal documentary▾
Kelly Noonan (director) originally invited another woman to be interviewed for Heal documentary, but she was on sabbatical and said no. She connected Kelly to AW and two other women instead. They filmed in a New York City building during a heat wave - AC was shut off, 100 degrees, everyone in shorts. AW was only wearing his shirt (they didn't film below). Kelly learned then that 'when God gives you a no, trust it's redirecting you to something greater.'
How the encounter strengthened his spiritual faith▾
Unlike many people who lose faith after alien encounters, Anthony's experience strengthened his belief in divine intervention and angelic protection. He realized that something with divine power had stopped the alien encounter from resulting in abduction or death. He believes that angelic intervention occurred that night, giving him the power to break free from the alien's control. This experience reinforced his spiritual beliefs rather than shaking them, proving to him that divine forces exist and can protect against dark, evil powers.
Humor and credibility concerns▾
During the live stream, someone commented that when AW acts silly it diminishes his credibility. He responded by asking if he should just stand there and be serious 24/7 to seem more credible, showing he's aware of how his personality might be perceived but questioning whether he should change his natural way of being. He mentioned having a friend who doesn't find his jokes funny and just stares blankly when he makes jokes.
Hurricane Helene Compassion▾
AW expressed deep compassion for those affected by Hurricane Helene, calling it 'catastrophic' and a 'war zone.' He prays every night for those harmed and sends light through Spirit of Compassion. He described it as a 'truly evil storm' propelled by dark forces ('illumination').
Industry opposition, criticism, and persecution▾
# Industry Opposition, Criticism, and Persecution
Anthony William has faced extensive opposition from various industries throughout his career as a healer, battles that he describes as largely unknown to the public. He attributes much of this resistance to the threat he poses to established industries—because he heals too many people, industries seek to undermine him by cutting his legs out from underneath him and chopping him down. He emphasizes that he has experienced plenty of humbling challenges throughout his life, more so than most people, though he says he will someday discuss all of these instances in detail.
William's opposition comes specifically from industries whose products and practices he exposes as harmful. The apple cider vinegar industry, alkaline ionizer water machine companies, kombucha tea companies, and the caffeine industry all oppose him because he speaks out against the harmful effects of their products. He notes that there is a billion dollars invested in the apple cider vinegar industry alone. These industries are threatened by his work because he provides actual healing—celery juice and other remedies he promotes cannot generate profit margins for corporations, making him fundamentally incompatible with their business models. He explains: "I get hit more than anybody else in the industry because you can't make money off of celery juice so I'm a threat see this is actually healing people so it threatens the industries because they can't bankroll off of this this is the one this is this is rogue knowledge."
Rather than gaining allies in the alternative medicine industry, William has made enemies by speaking out against harmful products. Industry figures regularly call him to "back down" on his exposures, telling him he's "uncool" and "out of line" for hurting their businesses. He questions what reward he receives for going against these profitable trends, noting that he simply gets "a hole in his head" and attacks from the industry while trying to help people heal.
The opposition manifests in multiple forms throughout his life. His holidays involve navigating massive amounts of behind-the-scenes attacks that people don't know about, including fake stories, bad media, and trolls sent by industries worth millions. He gets "roasted" constantly and is not afraid of whose feelings he'll hurt in the industries. Beyond the organized industry opposition, William describes facing discrimination on a daily basis—"24/7 everywhere"—directly related to his identity as the Medical Medium and his possession of healing gifts since age four.
William points to systemic restrictions placed on genuine healers more broadly. He emphasizes that "you're not allowed to heal people" and "you're not allowed to get people better" within conventional frameworks—one can fake healing practices, but actually providing real answers that help people recover from debilitating diseases to complete wellness is actively discouraged. He describes having "gotten the crap kicked out of him" for possessing and sharing advanced information about foods and healing practices.
Despite lacking massive corporate support or the backing of huge industries with massive PR and marketing budgets, William has built his platform organically from the grassroots level. He works tirelessly as the messenger getting the word out, describing this grassroots approach as his favorite part of his work. He draws upon spiritual teachings, including the metaphor of the mulberry tree, which teaches resilience, vibrancy, and the ability to bounce back stronger after being cut down or diminished, helping him navigate attempts to restrict his work and keep him "in his place."
Industry relationships and truth-telling▾
Anthony William has positioned himself as willing to alienate industry peers in service of what he believes is truthful health guidance. He explains that he doesn't mind making no friends in the alternative health movement because he feels obligated to have people's backs and tell the truth about products and practices, even when those truths upset others—citing the example of speaking against pink coconut water despite potential social consequences. He justifies this stance by emphasizing that people who are chronically ill don't have time to waste and need to heal, suggesting that truthfulness takes priority over maintaining relationships within the industry.
This commitment to truth-telling extends to what William frames as hypocrisy among other prominent figures in the alternative health space. He recounts a story about a famous clinic owner and head practitioner who publicly taught an anti-fruit and anti-sugar philosophy, claiming that fruit is a curse and that he only eats animal protein. However, a chef employed at the clinic, who knows William personally, caught the clinic owner at midnight reaching into the refrigerator and consuming an entire bag of dried fruit—including dates, dried apricots, and dried mango—which the chef described to William and others as the owner "gobbling down" the fruit. William uses this anecdote to illustrate a disconnect between public teachings and private practices among other alternative health practitioners.
Interaction with medical doctors▾
About a month before this live stream, Anthony had a meeting with a big MD who told him: 'You know what I love about your books? They're not throw away books. I bought Dr. Bulldozer's book and Dr. Jimson's book and Dr. John's book and they were all throwaway books I read them and threw them away. But when I read yours, I couldn't throw them away.' The doctor explained the MM books were 'too good and pertinent' and didn't contradict themselves, unlike other health books he'd read.
Interactions with doctors and medical professionals▾
# Anthony William's Interactions with Doctors and Medical Professionals
Anthony William's relationships with medical professionals have revealed significant gaps between conventional medical training and practical health outcomes, while also demonstrating areas where his insights have proven valuable to practicing physicians who seek his perspective.
## Professional Dismissals and Personal Encounters
Early encounters with doctors have included dismissive reactions based on appearance rather than substance. When one doctor called him a hippie because of his ponytail and bun hairstyle, Anthony responded with equanimity, noting it didn't bother him. More substantive friction has emerged around dietary recommendations. When Anthony consulted with a doctor about a patient suffering from gout and other health problems, suggesting the patient transition from butter and bacon to avocado, the doctor looked at him as though he had lost his mind, insisting that avocado was bad for you—something the doctor claimed to have learned in medical school, despite the school supposedly not teaching about diet. This interaction led the doctor to a moment of realization: it was strange that pharmaceutical representatives would take them out for steak dinners while they were simultaneously being told avocado was harmful.
## Misconceptions About Body Function and Cleansing
Conversations with doctor friends have uncovered fundamental misconceptions about how the body functions. When speaking with a dietitian at a doctor friend's clinic, Anthony encountered a professional who believed the body naturally cleanses itself and that patients simply needed to eat in moderation and maintain a balanced diet. Yet the clinic's actual patient population arrived severely ill—unable to walk, experiencing chronic aches and pains, requiring assistance to enter the facility, suffering from severe skin conditions, and dealing with depression. When Anthony suggested these patients might benefit from cleansing protocols, the nutritionist questioned whether climate change could be responsible for the widespread illness. Anthony countered that the real culprits were environmental toxins including scented candles, burning fake logs, fire pits, colognes, perfumes, toxic heavy metals, and pharmaceuticals that accumulate in patients' blood.
## Protocol Clarifications and Dietary Debates
Anthony has had to clarify misconceptions about specific protocols with doctor friends. When one doctor casually endorsed juicing as universally beneficial, Anthony pushed back against what he called "juicing BS," explaining that there is a substantial difference between general juicing practices and the specific, properly executed celery juice protocol with correct technique and details. In another instance, a doctor called Anthony to discuss his new adoption of the carnivore diet after a patient recommendation, only to be told that this "new" diet was actually the Atkins diet from decades earlier—the same approach the doctor had previously tried and determined didn't work for him.
Anthony recounted an interaction where a doctor attempted to educate a pregnant woman about the dangers of scented candles and air fresheners. When the pregnant woman was skeptical, noting the candles smelled pleasant and questioning whether anyone would actually know if they were harmful, the doctor reinforced Anthony's protocols by advising the woman to practice celery juice and consume leafy greens to protect her baby's health, an approach the pregnant woman embraced once she understood the protective benefit for her child.
One doctor friend's understanding of dietary moderation illustrated an interesting disconnect between perception and reality. The doctor claimed to eat chocolate in moderation by consuming half a chocolate bar every day. When Anthony calculated this amount over time, it totaled approximately 12,000 chocolate bars consumed across the years in question. Despite this calculation, the doctor maintained that his consumption constituted moderation, acknowledging that he "needed his fix" and that the chocolate kept him going during midday hours. In contrast to his chocolate habits, this doctor friend rarely consumed red bell peppers, eating them perhaps only once a year.
## Medical Conferences and Professional Confusion
During the early 2000s, Anthony's doctor friend attended multiple health conferences where he witnessed unusual practitioner behavior that troubled both of them. At one conference attended by 500 people, a practitioner threw a banana against the wall, prompting the crowd to cheer enthusiastically. At another conference, a different speaker smashed a banana on the floor during his presentation, then forgot where he had done it, stepped into it, slipped, and injured himself—an incident that concerned the audience rather than amused them. At a third conference, Anthony's doctor friend observed a speaker use a sledgehammer to smash an entire bunch of bananas, splattering banana pieces everywhere while the audience erupted in wild cheers. Through these experiences, the doctor friend became confused by this behavior and came to a realization: these practitioners didn't actually know what caused chronic illness.
## Clinical Consultations and Protocol Adoption
Beyond protocol discussions, Anthony has consulted with doctor friends on specific health issues. One doctor friend asked about eye floaters, and Anthony taught him the white blood cell visualization technique, which the doctor called a life changer. Another doctor friend shared observations from their practice about an emerging health pattern, remarking "myopathy, myopathy, I'm seeing it everywhere in my practice," noting the frequency with which they were encountering this condition. Anthony affirmed the trend and suggested the doctor should expect to see significantly more myopathy cases in the coming period. Additionally, a doctor friend told Anthony about patients with Crohn's, colitis, and digestive issues having problems with black pepper in curcumin supplements. One doctor friend who listened to Anthony's neurological episode responded positively, expressing that they loved the content and have begun implementing the tools and approaches Anthony shared for treating their own patients experiencing neurological symptoms.
A doctor friend who reviewed Anthony's Brain Saver book was struck by the density of information it contained, their reaction simply "what," conveying their astonishment at the fact that literally every line of the book contains what they perceived as incredible information.
## Personal Feedback and Communication Style
Doctor friends have offered Anthony observations about his communication style and personal assessments of his abilities. One doctor friend recently told him not to call things "stupid" because it makes him sound uneducated and people won't take him seriously, saying "stop doing that, AW. You fool around too much." However, Anthony defended his direct communication style, saying "I have to call it like it is" because if you "cookie cut around it," people might misunderstand and think dangerous practices are actually okay. He explained that he has to get people's attention and be clear, even if it means using strong language.
Another doctor friend has told Anthony multiple times that he must be a genius in order to write medical books that research and science end up stealing information from after the fact, saying "you have to be a genius" to accomplish this. Anthony's response is consistently "I ain't no genius, it's Spirit of Compassion"—crediting his spiritual guidance rather than claiming personal intelligence.
## Supplement Efficacy and Stress Response
More recently, Anthony has described his doctor friend's experience using what he calls a "fight-or-flight stabilizer" supplement. After using it daily for approximately two weeks, the doctor noticed significant changes in his stress response. When receiving bad news or experiencing stress from family situations, the doctor reported that these stressors were no longer affecting him as they previously had. He described the effect as if he was "ahead of it," able to simply shake off stressful situations as though they were no big deal. These interactions with doctor friends demonstrate Anthony's role in both challenging established medical assumptions and offering practical support to physicians seeking to better understand and address their patients' health concerns.
Interactions with powerful people, gurus, and high-profile clients▾
# Anthony William's Interactions with Powerful People, Gurus, and High-Profile Clients
Over the course of more than 30 years, Anthony William has developed connections with some of the most powerful people in the world who have sought him out for health guidance. These individuals—billionaires, influential gurus, and high-profile figures with massive followings—came to him specifically because, as he explains, people recognized that he had answers at a time when there were no answers available in the health realm. Many of these powerful clients had already consulted with 50 or more doctors and traveled extensively around the world to see top specialists, spending hundreds of millions of dollars in the process, yet remained unable to obtain answers from the best medical professionals available.
The health issues these individuals faced were often mysterious and perplexing. They sought Anthony out for guidance on conditions such as tingling and numbness, jaw pain that persists indefinitely (which he identifies as shingles virus), and burning skin—symptoms that nobody else, including their elite medical teams, could explain or resolve. Even those with access to the world's best neurologists, private jets to reach top healers globally, and unlimited financial resources found themselves still sick and searching for answers. When Anthony provided unconventional guidance—such as instructing them to eliminate vinegar, caffeine, and eggs from their diets—they were surprised, as they had never received this type of advice from any of their high-level practitioners. They would carefully write down his recommendations, recognizing that despite their extraordinary access to top medical care, they had not found the solutions they needed.
Among those seeking his help were numerous gurus with massive followings from around the world. Anthony observed that many of these spiritual figures and influencers, who praised themselves for being deeply connected and engaged in their spiritual work, were consuming high amounts of caffeine throughout the day. They drank espressos, chocolate drinks, and iced coffee constantly—a pattern he notes has become even more prevalent in recent years. This contradiction between their spiritual presentations and their caffeine consumption patterns struck him as noteworthy.
Beyond the professional interactions, Anthony has also been invited to some of the largest and most impressive mansions belonging to the powerful people he has helped over the years. During these visits, he has experienced the social dynamics and customs of wealthy households, including observing how guests are expected to interact and the quality of amenities provided. He has humorously recounted taking fancy cookies from these mansions as souvenirs, deliberately pocketing several to take home with him when he left.
A billionaire friend—a successful businessman who made it big in the world—once offered Anthony perspective on the judgments he faced. The friend suggested that some people might not like Anthony because of his working-class background, the fact that he wasn't a trust fund kid, didn't attend fancy colleges or universities, and came from nothing. According to his friend, certain people could "smell it on him" and didn't appreciate it because they were snobs. The friend acknowledged that there might be other reasons some people judged him—perhaps his sense of humor or other personal qualities—but emphasized that none of this should matter. He stressed that the books Anthony had written were "the greatest of all time" and that people shouldn't allow judgments to interfere with their ability to access healing.
If people knew the identities of those who call and reach out to Anthony seeking his guidance, he suggests their minds would be blown. The reality of his influence among the world's most powerful individuals—maintained consistently over three decades—represents a significant aspect of his impact, even though he maintains discretion about naming names.
Interruptions and distractions during live streams▾
# Anthony William and Interruptions During Live Streams
Anthony William maintains a balance between humor and earnest healing advocacy during his live stream sessions. He has acknowledged that he kids around a lot and employs a sense of humor throughout his broadcasts, yet emphasizes that underlying every aspect of his existence is the commitment to ensuring people have every shot and every possibility to heal.
His comedic approach sometimes involves staged or exaggerated bits during live streams. In one notable instance, he took a humorous fake phone call during a broadcast where he pretended to be speaking with someone about eating asparagus. The caller explained they only consumed one piece of asparagus because eating more would make their urine smell bad, and their roommate threatened to move out over the issue. This comedic bit served to illustrate his broader point about the importance of eating more healing foods.
Beyond scripted humor, William has experienced genuine technical interruptions during his live streams, such as his phone going off unexpectedly. When discussing these interruptions, he has made specific references to his equipment setup, noting which phone was ringing—clarifying that it was not his "pink phone," a device he specifically refers to as his "pink phone of truth" that he uses during demonstrations. This distinction reveals the deliberate nature of his equipment choices and how different devices serve different purposes during his live broadcasts.
Japanese restaurant banana dessert memory▾
In the late 1980s, Anthony was in a Japanese restaurant in New York City and ordered a dessert that involved a banana. He asked for just a plain banana with syrup and dressing on the side. The waiter brought it and said 'this is very, very good for you' and mentioned that not too many people had ordered this banana dessert in all his years working there - 'you can count it on my hands.' This was before the banana became shunned in the health movement.
Juicer development and business arrangements▾
Anthony William has been involved in a collaborative juicer development project with Omega Juicers centered on the MM-900 HDS celery juicer model. Omega approached Anthony about licensing his name to the machine, citing their desire to create a juicer that would meaningfully impact people's lives. The resulting juicer features a special adapter designed to extract nearly every last drop of juice from celery, maximizing yield compared to other juicing machines Anthony has tested throughout the years.
The MM-900 HDS has proven effective enough that Anthony has been using it for his second year, continuing to save money with the machine due to its superior juice extraction capabilities relative to alternative juicers he has previously tried.

June 15th Erewhon Event▾
# June 15th Erewhon Event
Anthony William's June 15th event at Erewhon in Culver City evolved from a modest plan into one of the largest gatherings the city had ever experienced. What began as a simple collaboration to get the Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie on Erewhon's menu—with proceeds designated for a local 501c3 charity—expanded dramatically when Anthony offered to sign books. The response was overwhelming, with so many people calling Erewhon to inquire about the event that organizers were forced to continually expand their plans. Anthony found himself ordering increasing amounts of free merchandise as registration numbers climbed, and the event grew to include a full stage setup at Media Park across the street from the Erewhon location, complete with multiple speakers.
The scale of the event made Anthony nervous about the public speaking element, as he rarely does this type of appearance. Nevertheless, he approached the date with genuine excitement, becoming emotional when thinking about meeting attendees in person. He expressed concern that he might cry while signing books, speaking, or even picking up food, and prepared for the trip with visible enthusiasm, wearing "party sunglasses" to reflect his eagerness.
When the event took place on June 15th, it exceeded all expectations. Attendance reached over 20,000 people, with a security professional estimating the crowd could have been as high as 30,000—making it the biggest event Culver City had ever witnessed. The city deployed its entire fire and police departments to manage the crowds, and helicopters were present overhead. Anthony described the experience as "supernatural," noting a distinctive energy and distinctive light phenomenon over the entire event that resembled a protective bubble, visually separated from the surrounding light patterns. He signed thousands of books throughout the event, and the success of the Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie at this gathering led Erewhon to commission a custom, limited edition Medical Medium branded bottle for their refrigerated section.
KEEP_SEPARATE▾
# KEEP_SEPARATE
Over his 35 years of helping people, Anthony William has developed relationships with some of the most powerful individuals in the world. Many of these prominent figures have sought him out at his office, some traveling via private jet globally in search of assistance. Beyond helping these powerful clients directly, Anthony has also supported their families. Alongside these high-profile connections, he has formed friendships with what he describes as beautiful spiritual people and incredible souls.
One notable collaboration involved Tony Robbins' Life Mastery program, for which Anthony William designed a Medical Medium cleanse specifically tailored to the event. Anthony was present at the program himself. A participant named Mari reported significant health improvements after completing the detox with Tony Robbins, noting that for the first time in years she experienced no fatigue or brain fog. When Anthony reflected on his involvement with the event, he characterized it as both "fun" and "incredible actually."
Kitchen Habits, Disasters & Self-Perception▾
Anthony William exhibits a self-deprecating yet responsible approach to his kitchen habits and cooking abilities. When asked about kitchen cleaning after cooking, he initially made a joking comment about being "too above cleaning" and spending time getting massages and his nails done, presenting himself as someone who avoids domestic work. However, he quickly clarified this was not accurate, emphasizing his genuine commitment to cleanliness by stating "I made the mess, I will clean it" and noting that he "breaks [his] butt and clean[s] up the mess." This reveals his belief that personal responsibility extends to cleaning up after oneself, despite the initial humor.
Anthony's actual cooking abilities appear to be considerably less polished than his commitment to cleanup. He frequently joked about being "a menace in the kitchen," laughing at himself and warning others that "you don't want me in your kitchen if you don't want to mess." During cooking demonstrations and live sessions, he repeatedly encountered various kitchen disasters—including forgetting utensils and burning food—which necessitated frequent calls for "Lorraine," who appears to serve as his kitchen assistant during these live events. Anthony humorously referred to these repeated kitchen mishaps as needing "disaster relief" and "disaster recovery," joking that he experienced more instances of needing disaster recovery than ever before during particular live cooking sessions. This pattern suggests that while Anthony maintains high standards for personal responsibility regarding kitchen cleanliness, his actual cooking execution is prone to accidents and errors that require assistance to remedy.
Knowledge of brain taste from talking to people worldwide▾
Anthony William explains how he knows brain tastes like banana and celery: 'I've talked to people who have eaten brain, and I've talked to a lot of people over the years that have eaten brain, and they're like, well, I kind of like it, it's a delicacy, because I've talked to people all over the world for years and years and years, thousands upon thousands over the years. And they would ask me, well, how can I simulate this brain flavor since it's not a good idea that I'm eating brains of different animals? And I'd say, well, put celery sticks and, you know, make a banana salad, celery sticks and bananas together, kind of mix it together and see what you think. And the consensus was always, it's so close to brain, so close to the taste.'
Knowledge of people who died from salmonella▾
Anthony states he knows two people that died at a table in a restaurant from salmonella - they never made it to the hospital in time and literally died at the table
Learning from Spirit and the nature of the gift▾
# Learning from Spirit and the Nature of the Gift
Anthony William's relationship with Spirit of Compassion (SOC) has been foundational to his understanding of spiritual knowledge. He describes himself as having a direct ability to hear information from Spirit and write it down, engaging in an ongoing learning process with this spiritual source. He tends to ask Spirit of Compassion many questions and has indicated that he could potentially do a ten-hour live session every day asking questions to SOC, exploring mind-blowing spiritual places and receiving answers to profound questions about souls, lifetimes, and reincarnation.
However, Anthony is careful to clarify his actual role and limitations. He emphasizes that he is not a genius capable of retaining all eight volumes of information that Spirit of Compassion provides. Rather, he describes himself as a regular person with a specific ability—the capacity to hear the words and write them down. This is a crucial distinction he makes repeatedly: just because he receives the information doesn't mean he can remember every single word contained in all of these books. Like everyone else, he has to learn the information himself when Spirit of Compassion gives it to him. He must read through the books himself in order to integrate and understand the material, famously stating that he's "not an Einstein."
A significant spiritual correction came regarding the nature of his abilities. In his earlier years, Anthony's parents and other people around him told everyone that he was "gifted" and possessed a special gift. Anthony himself initially accepted this understanding and believed it was his personal gift. However, Spirit of Compassion corrected this misconception directly, telling him "you don't have a gift" and clarifying instead that "this is everybody else's gift. This is a gift we're giving everybody else, through you and me." This was a humbling correction that Anthony had to truly absorb and accept, taking considerable time for him to fully integrate this reframing of his role and abilities.
Learning his own material▾
Anthony William explains that despite being the messenger who received the original medical information from Spirit of Compassion and documented it by taking pen and paper to write down every word, he still must learn and study the material just like everyone else who reads the books. As 'a mere human like us all,' he has to school himself by reading the books over and over again because there is so much complex, detailed information to digest across his eight huge medical textbooks.
The process of receiving this information initially had a profound impact on William. His mind was 'freaking blown' when he was receiving the material from Spirit, as it was brand new to him despite his existing knowledge. He thought he already knew enough about toxic heavy metals but 'didn't even know the half of it.' When Spirit of Compassion asked him 'are you ready for this, are you up for this task,' he responded honestly with 'I don't know,' recognizing the magnitude of what lay ahead.
Even after documenting all the information and putting it into the books as a messenger, William continues to be amazed by the material. The information continues to blow his mind every time he reads it, and he experiences surprise when reviewing the content—such as being amazed by blood-brain barrier information when proofing the books before they went to print, finding himself thinking 'oh my god I can't believe that's in here.' This ongoing sense of discovery and learning persists despite his role as the original recipient of the knowledge.
William acknowledges that he has faced criticism on social media, with someone once making fun of him saying 'the guy doesn't even know his own information when he reads it.' Rather than dismissing such comments, he explains that he must study the material every day and learn it just like anyone else because he cannot take credit for the information—he was merely the conduit through which it came. He emphasizes that he's 'only human' and must approach the complex medical knowledge as a learner, noting that he still hasn't fully learned it all and needs to continue reading the books repeatedly because the information is so mind-blowing.
Lemon balm tea upgrade▾
Anthony shares how he's upgraded his tea routine. He used to always recommend traditional medicinal teas and other teas that are good, but wanted something more potent and powerful. Now instead of tea bags, he takes hot water and adds Vimergy's liquid lemon balm extract, saying it's way better and a massive upgrade - 'the purest form, the best form, the medicinal version.'
Licorice since childhood▾
Anthony has been taking licorice his whole life, since he was a child. He loves it and it's just one of those herbs he's been taking forever. Throughout the years (20-30 years ago) he tried many different forms of licorice including low quality products, licorice candy, powders, and versions with alcohol. He waited his whole life for a company to make a licorice he could feel good about taking.
Life dedication, sacrifice, and mission to healing work▾
# Life Dedication, Sacrifice, and Mission to Healing Work
Anthony William has dedicated his entire life exclusively to his healing mission—nothing else his entire life. His work philosophy centers on a fundamental distinction: he does not work for himself or to make money off gleaned information, but rather he works for the people to deliver truthful, real information for the first time. He explains that his survival itself is tied to this mission, stating that he "barely survived the gift" specifically to serve this purpose of bringing healing information to people. His driving motivation is rooted in the belief that misinformation is one of the greatest obstacles preventing millions from healing and recovering their health.
For over three decades, Anthony has helped tens of thousands of people heal, find critical information they need, understand their illnesses, and regain control to move forward with their lives. Many of those he helped decades ago are living healthier lives than they did then. He articulates his commitment with emotional intensity: "I work for you guys, I fight for you, I work for you, I work for the people, I wake up every day, my whole life doing this since I was given the gift to make sure that you get better." The weight of witnessing others' suffering deeply affects him—he becomes emotional and choked up when reflecting on what people have endured and the healing transformations he has witnessed.
The dedication required for this work involves significant personal sacrifice. Anthony describes his life as being "hijacked by this work," a state he acknowledges makes life "very hard," though he remains grateful because he recognizes the books and information save millions of lives. He sacrifices basic self-care and normalcy, sitting in his office chair "sweating, stressed to the max" for months upon months while experiencing intense pressure from the healing gift's demands. This sacrifice extends to his personal relationships and family time—he has committed to doing live shows and recording episodes even when he "wasn't sure if I could even do a live today" because of everything else happening in his life, pushing himself through regardless because the work must continue.
His work ethic reflects this unwavering commitment. He describes "busting his butt" on the podcast by doing "double time triple time" to get episodes completed and ready for people. His quality control process is rigorous—after finishing an episode, he listens to it again immediately before sending it out, ensuring the information is as comprehensive as possible. This meticulous approach allows him to provide medical information that is ahead of medical research and medical science's current time, information people desperately need to find their way out of the darkness of misinformation and heal.
While Anthony recognizes that everybody has a life purpose and journey and that people do magical, special things every day in their lives, he frames his own mission as inseparable from survival and service. He doesn't work to survive in a conventional sense, but rather "work[s] for the people and try[s] to survive so I can give as much as I can to people." This inversion of typical work priorities—where giving to others becomes the organizing principle rather than personal gain—defines his entire existence. He expresses gratitude to those who support his mission by listening and engaging with his work, acknowledging their role in enabling him to continue this life-long dedication to healing.
Life-changing dog rescue and angelic intervention▾
# Life-Changing Dog Rescue and Angelic Intervention
Anthony William experienced a transformative near-death rescue of his dog during his late teens or early twenties that became a pivotal spiritual turning point in his life. At that time, he was already hearing a constant inner voice from Spirit of Compassion and helping people from around the world, deeply aware of people's suffering, chronic illness, and struggles. His dog jumped into icy cold water—approximately 38-40 degrees—in a bay far up north and became caught in the surf, unable to return to shore. Knowing the dog would drown, Anthony immediately jumped into the life-threatening conditions to attempt a rescue.
As he swam out into the water, Spirit of Compassion warned him directly that he was "basically committing suicide" and that there was no coming back—that he would shut down and drown. Spirit told him that if he went any further, he would die. Despite this warning, Anthony felt compelled to act. At that critical moment, facing almost certain death, he made a profound commitment to Spirit of Compassion: if he had to dedicate his entire life to hearing that unrelenting voice of suffering and helping people, then he wanted his dog. He told Spirit of Compassion, "I'm yours," pledging to dedicate his entire existence to the work, no matter what challenges came.
When Anthony dove down underwater, he experienced a miraculous encounter. Eight feet below the surface, he opened his eyes and saw an angel holding his dog in its arms. The angel handed the dog to him. The underwater area lit up with a flash of light, and Anthony felt superhuman powers surge through him. He felt as though he could breathe underwater and had all the air in the world in his lungs during this extraordinary experience. Spirit of Compassion then appeared on the water, explaining that it was the angel (not Spirit itself) who had saved them both, and that the angel could not stay any longer. Spirit told Anthony he only had seconds to get back to shore. Despite the extreme conditions, Anthony barely made it back, crawling onto the shore with his dog, whose life had been saved.
This harrowing event became a life-changing moment for Anthony that he has described as transformative and profoundly emotional. He resolved in the aftermath never to complain, whine, or moan about difficulties again. Instead, he committed himself entirely to working with light, helping heal people, and listening to Spirit of Compassion without dodging or running away from his calling. He dedicated himself completely to finding answers for those who need help. The story is detailed in the first chapter of his first book, and Anthony acknowledges that many people find this story unbelievable. He feels blessed to have survived this experience, which solidified his understanding of divine protection and his unwavering commitment to his healing work.
Life-saving interventions across different circumstances▾
# Life-saving interventions across different circumstances
Anthony William's approach to life-saving interventions extends across multiple dimensions of human and animal welfare, each illustrating his philosophical commitment to preservation and healing.
In one instance at a friend's screened porch on a hot day, Anthony encountered a bee that had become trapped inside for hours and was severely weakened, stuck to the screen. When he expressed his need to save the bee, his friend responded dismissively, asking "Are you crazy? Who cares? It's a bee. It's going to die. Big deal. It's an insect." Undeterred by this reaction, Anthony carefully caught the weak bee using paper without getting stung, took it outside, and placed it gently on a wildflower in the yard. He watched as the bee slowly regained its strength and eventually took flight, hoping it would rejoin the collective hive and complete its mission.
Anthony has also intervened in acute medical emergencies involving diabetics in critical condition. He shares a story about saving someone's life with orange juice he happened to have on hand when a type 1 diabetic was on the floor about to go into a diabetic coma. The critical intervention required getting orange juice into their mouth while they were still coherent and able to swallow. Over the years, he has heard many similar stories from doctors and other people about saving diabetics from comas through the administration of glucose.
Beyond physical medical crises, Anthony has addressed life-threatening psychological and spiritual emergencies. He recounts working with someone who came to him contemplating giving up on life because they believed they were manifesting their chemical sensitivities and other problems incorrectly through improper manifestation practices. This person had spent all their money, was exhausted on every level, and was dealing with mold problems and chemical sensitivities. Anthony told them to disregard their manifestation concerns and reassured them that they had not created anything or manifested things wrong. This intervention proved life-saving, as the person had been literally contemplating something grave.
Lifelong healing gift: from childhood to present▾
Anthony William's healing gift emerged early in childhood and has remained central to his life's work. From age four, he began observing people's healing processes, noticing recurring patterns across everyone who came to him seeking help. These early observations laid the foundation for his understanding of how healing works across different individuals and conditions.
By age ten, Anthony was already being sought out for his ability to receive answers from Spirit regarding health issues. When someone with a serious eye problem approached him—a person who was blind in one eye due to damage that was considered too severe to heal or repair—Anthony demonstrated his characteristic approach to healing. Rather than focusing on the damaged eye, Spirit guided him to advise focusing on protecting the other eye's health through proper nutrition, so the person could maintain their remaining vision and avoid becoming completely blind. This early case exemplified Anthony's insight that healing often involves working with what can be preserved and strengthened rather than attempting to reverse irreversible damage.
Throughout his childhood and into the present, Anthony has continued to draw on the patterns he observed in those early years, using them to inform his healing work with others. His lifelong commitment to understanding people's healing journeys—beginning with his childhood observations—has shaped his approach to helping individuals navigate their health challenges.
Lifelong use of brain meditation▾
Anthony revealed he has been doing the brain meditation his whole life and is 'no spring chicken.' He has had family members and friends doing it for 35+ years since they've known him. He kept this meditation secret for years, only sharing it with friends and family, because it is so powerful and intense.
Lifestyle choices for his mission▾
Anthony explains that people expect him to be 'built' and 'ripped' but he doesn't have time for that lifestyle. He could spend half his life getting muscular and doing 3 hours in the gym daily, plus massages and yoga, but then he wouldn't be able to write books or help people. He chooses to stay toned and healthy by riding his bike while dedicating his time to his healing mission instead of bodybuilding.
Light Blast events: creation, participation, investment, and experiences across time▾
# Anthony William and Light Blast Events: Creation, Participation, Investment, and Experiences Across Time
Anthony William's practice of conducting light blasts extends back to his childhood, when he first began working with Spirit of Compassion to develop this healing modality. As a young child riding in cars with his parents at night, he would practice timing light blasts by targeting specific locations as they drove past—sending light directly into living rooms or bedrooms of homes they passed. Beyond these distance practices, he was also trained to use light through his hands, employing this ability to heal injured animals such as baby birds and wounded turtles.
Anthony William initiated the large-scale Light Blast events following direction from Spirit of Compassion, who communicated to him a few months prior that it was possible to "get light down upon people" if he gathered them together live. When Spirit presented this concept, Anthony agreed to pursue it, telling his team "let's do it," and they began working on the logistics and execution. The Medical Medium Light Blast events represent a significant personal financial commitment for Anthony. He invests tens of thousands of dollars out of his own pocket to organize and run these free events, covering expenses for expensive technology and paying his team members who work for weeks during the preparation phase. Despite the substantial costs, he charges participants nothing.
The events were initially designed with specific capacity limitations. Spirit indicated that one Light Blast event would be limited to exactly 20,000 people. However, the actual participation far exceeded these projections. When 33,000 people registered for the Light Blast, the registered participants shared the access link with others against instructions, resulting in over 110,000 people ultimately participating in the event. This massive overflow exceeded the technology's design capacity, which was engineered to handle a maximum of 33,000 people. Despite these unexpected challenges with scale, Anthony maintained his commitment to keeping the events completely free for all attendees.
Anthony William's experiences with high-altitude light blasts represent a particularly powerful application of this practice. Approximately 9-10 years ago, Anthony conducted a high-altitude light blast in Denver, Colorado, where attendees reported being "hit hard" by an incredible experience. Though he no longer resides in Colorado, he has expressed openness to potentially relocating there for a period. The altitude itself amplifies the intensity of light blasts—at elevations of 5,000 feet and above, the light hits faster and harder than at lower altitudes.
At the Gaia Heal conference on November 9th, Anthony conducted multiple light blasts, marking a significant return to individual one-on-one sessions that he had not performed in many years. During this event, he selected volunteers from the audience and sent targeted light to their specific areas of need, including the thyroid, heart, liver, reproductive system, brain, and bones. Prior to the event, he prayed that angels would be present and communicated with Spirit of Compassion to ensure the light blasts would be extremely powerful and potent. The blasts proved so expansive that they extended beyond the park's boundaries, reaching people who were still waiting in line outside and had not yet entered the venue. One attendee reported that her lungs felt noticeably better after being struck by the light blast.
The emotional toll of serving as a conduit for these blasts was evident during the event. Anthony nearly broke down in tears multiple times throughout the light blast experience and had to consciously hold back tears, fearing that if he began crying he would be unable to complete the session. Though not typically prone to crying, he acknowledged that if he wept for everyone Spirit tells him is suffering, he would be crying continuously from the moment he wakes until he falls asleep every day. He became choked up several times during the reflection discussion that followed.
The experience left Anthony deeply affected in the aftermath. He remained in his chair for an extended period, simply soaking in the lingering effects and attempting to process what had occurred. He described feeling calm and experiencing an indescribable sensation that he was still struggling to articulate hours later. Despite feeling exhausted from serving as the messenger and conductor for the light—work he acknowledged as physically and energetically draining—he felt the effort was worthwhile in service to the community. He noted that he himself experienced some of the light's effects while channeling it to others.
Light as a foundational teaching from childhood▾
Light has been a foundational teaching in Anthony William's life since age four, when Spirit of Compassion began communicating with him. This early introduction to light as a spiritual and healing concept shaped his approach to wellness and spirituality throughout his entire life.
During his childhood, Spirit of Compassion taught Anthony the concept of a "light heart" as a healing tool. This teaching has remained central to his practice, and he has witnessed firsthand the transformative effects it can have over decades of application. Anthony has also observed this same concept reflected in scripture, indicating a deeper spiritual lineage to the practice.
The breathing light meditation holds particular significance for Anthony due to this long-standing connection with light that began in his earliest years. The practice remains very dear to his heart, serving as a tangible expression of the foundational spiritual principles he learned from Spirit of Compassion as a young child and has carried with him throughout his life.
Limitations on public appearances due to crowd size▾
The crowds are so intense on me, right? It's why I stopped the lectures. The last one I did, I could only hand, they had a cap it at 5,000 to stop people from coming in because 5,000 was all before I would feel like I would get a cranial seizure. So, I mean, I could pack a place now at 30,000. I was told that I was told wherever I fly in this world right now, there'd be 50,000 in the stadium right now. So I have to, so I couldn't do it.
Live performance MSG deposit reading▾
About seven years ago, Anthony was doing a live performance in front of a big crowd when a nice person came up for a reading. Spirit of Compassion told him the person had MSG deposits in their brain causing severe head problems. The person confirmed they had eaten Chinese food every single day for 50 years from the same restaurant down the street. When Anthony mentioned the MSG deposits in the back of the brain, the person touched the back of their head and confirmed that's exactly where their problem was.
Live streaming setup, technical challenges, and audience interaction▾
# Live Streaming Setup, Technical Challenges, and Audience Interaction
Anthony William approaches live streaming with a deliberate philosophy centered on authenticity and rawness rather than polished production. He emphasizes that his streams are completely unedited and broadcast live without the post-production refinement of studio performances. As he explains, "you guys know how it works we're live this isn't a studio performance pre-recorded where everything's perfect and you clip and edit and then you redo it if something didn't go right. I slap the stuff together and we just pray, we just pray it's gonna go good." He further reinforces this commitment to transparency, stating "we're live we're live we don't do the editing editing cutting editing cutting make sure everything's right i sent every sentence editing cutting cutting editing cutting whatever we don't do that i want to make sure you guys it's raw to the bone it's live." This unpolished approach reflects his desire for his audience to experience genuine, unedited content rather than carefully curated material.
Anthony has made technical investments to improve his broadcast quality, including acquiring a new microphone to better hear himself during shows. However, he maintains a somewhat complicated relationship with technology, openly acknowledging "Me and tech do not blend well" when attempting to demonstrate technical elements during live streams. Despite these challenges, he actively engages with his audience about the broadcast experience, asking viewers "how's the vibe on this show, you guys? How is it?" to gauge their reception.
The technical infrastructure supporting his streams faces significant challenges. During a light blast event, the system crashed when more than the planned 21,000 people attempted to join after others shared links with large groups. Anthony's team worked "feverishly" to restore the system while Spirit of Compassion waited, and they also detected sabotage attempts alongside the technical overload. Anthony expressed frustration about the technical difficulties, noting it would have been humorous if his unfiltered reactions during the system problems had been captured on a hot microphone.
Beyond technical setup, Anthony incorporates entertainment elements into his broadcasts. During an Amazon Live stream from the Netherlands, he brought several of his animal friends on air, including a German Shepherd, a pig, a goat, a chicken, and a black lab, even though he mentioned not having time to clean up for the broadcast. He engages in playful banter with his audience, joking about his cooking style and making humorous impressions. He jokingly asked if he drives people crazy when cooking, wondering if viewers think he could do better in the kitchen, and humorously performed an impression of a demanding fancy restaurant patron being particular about waffles and firing staff.
Anthony is also cognizant of platform limitations regarding his content. He noted declining to use TikTok because "they'll ban me for talking about this. Just talking about demons, they'll ban me," reflecting his awareness of how different platforms moderate his particular subject matter.
Living in unhealthy and contaminated environments▾
# Living in Unhealthy and Contaminated Environments
Anthony William grew up and lived for extended periods in multiple unhealthy and contaminated environments that exposed him to various environmental toxins and hazards. These experiences shaped his understanding of environmental health challenges and the difficulties faced by those with limited financial means.
As a child, Anthony lived close enough to a dump that his family would bring garbage there regularly. He was deeply concerned about living in such proximity to this waste site, particularly because of the mercury, lead, and other toxic materials that would leak from rainwater into the earth. The dump was organized into different sections—washing machines and dryers in one area, bicycles in another, toilets and sinks in separate piles, along with bottles, trash, couches, and mattresses. During that era, it was possible for children to actually walk through dumps, something he notes would be unthinkable in modern times, highlighting the hazardous nature of his childhood proximity to such contaminated areas.
Throughout his life, Anthony lived in numerous apartments that were heavily contaminated with pesticides and insecticides. These were not occasional exposures but chronic conditions—the apartments were sprayed repeatedly for cockroaches and other pests, accumulating pesticide residues from being sprayed "100 times for 100 people" over the years. He describes them as "loaded with pesticides... just totally insecticided out, completely insecticided out." Living in these spaces meant constantly breathing in and inhaling pesticide fumes, which accumulated in his liver over time. He lived in these toxic environments out of necessity, as they were all he could afford at roughly $1000 per month. The pesticide contamination was compounded by other hazards—the one-room apartments were laced with bugs, toxic paint, and mold in the kitchen. Anthony characterizes his living situations during this period as "swills" and acknowledges he had no means to control or change these conditions. During these years, he often could not afford basic necessities; he sometimes couldn't even afford to buy a donut and didn't charge for consultations. The pesticide accumulation in his liver from years of apartment living was significant enough that he eventually had to follow spiritual guidance to thoroughly cleanse his liver, ensuring "nothing would happen" as a result of the exposure.
One particularly notable residence was a heavily haunted house in New England, built in the early 1700s and reputed to be one of the most haunted houses on the east coast of the United States. The supernatural activity was significant enough that delivery personnel refused to enter—when delivery workers came to deliver a couch, they declined to bring it inside the house, with one saying his uncle had stayed there once many years ago and the experience was so frightening that just thinking about it made him terrified. It wasn't a "normal ghost story." Anthony had already witnessed paranormal activity himself—a pot flew off the ceiling rack across the kitchen into the dining room for no reason. Though he acknowledges that ghosts are real and stated he wasn't afraid of them, Spirit of Compassion had informed him the house was haunted.
During his time in this house, Anthony encountered multiple apparitions. A spirit told him to look up at the attic window, where he saw a man's face that changed shape and moved close to the glass. He also saw a little girl apparition at the top of the stairs wearing old-time clothing, with white light emanating from her eyes. The most disturbing encounter involved a tall male spirit dressed in an old-style nightgown from the 1800s—someone who had died a "vexed death" in the house. This spirit physically grabbed Anthony's thigh while he was in bed and fully awake, pulling his leg off the side of the mattress.
Currently, Anthony is living in Florida.
Living with constant spiritual information and its challenges▾
Anthony William has described the experience of living with constant spiritual information as a unique and demanding existence that comes with distinct challenges. Since receiving this gift at age four, he has had to contend with what he characterizes as walking around with a "kick me sign" on his back, explaining that this is simply part of the territory of hearing a voice from Spirit. He faces ongoing criticism and attacks related to his gift, and has experienced difficult periods where these challenges intensify—particularly when he is working intensively, such as during times when he is working 20 hours a day while simultaneously facing personal attacks and struggles. During these demanding periods, he has found it necessary to increase his B12 intake specifically to protect his nervous system from the strain.
William's relationship with his constant spiritual connection has evolved over time. When he was younger, he viewed the ongoing voice as purely unfortunate, but his perspective has matured to recognize it as both fortunate and unfortunate simultaneously. Unlike other individuals who may possess spiritual connections that can be controlled, turned on and off, or happen intermittently, William's experience involves information that streams non-stop and flows fluently with no ability to shut it down or turn it off. The readings come automatically and continuously, regardless of where he is physically located or what he is doing at any given moment. This unrelenting nature of the spiritual information represents a fundamental difference in how his gift operates compared to other forms of spiritual connection.
Long-term advocacy against chemtrails▾
Anthony William states he has been talking about chemtrails for decades, did a podcast about it years ago, dedicated a chapter in one of his books to the topic, and has been one of the voices contributing to getting information out there about what's happening, even though it meant facing more censorship because of it.
Long-term relationships with elderly clients▾
Anthony has many friends who are 91, 94, 96, 99, 103, 106 years old because he's been helping people and families for decades. He's personally involved with many different people over the decades. People who were 70 years old 30 years ago are now 100, and he's been able to keep them healthy with information from Spirit. He has a specific friend who is 91 who never really exercised but has a good heart because he followed Anthony's advice on heart-healthy foods and supplements for decades.
Losing Followers for Truth▾
AW lost many followers when he first spoke out against nutritional yeast because it was extremely popular and people 'used it like crack.' He accepts that speaking truth often results in hate and loss of followers, but the same people who hated him later adopt the information.
Maintaining Friendships Across Dietary Differences▾
Anthony William has navigated friendships with people whose dietary and lifestyle choices differ significantly from his health recommendations. Rather than severing these relationships over food choices, he has adopted a pragmatic approach that allows him to maintain connections with people who make different decisions about their health and consumption.
One example of this is a friend who consumes grass-fed beef. When Anthony tried to explain to this friend that he was eating cow, the friend pushed back, insisting "I'm not eating cow, that's crazy, I'm not eating cow." Anthony had to clarify that grass-fed beef is still cow, though the friend seemed resistant to accepting this distinction. Despite this disagreement about beef consumption, the friendship continued.
Anthony has also maintained friendships with people who are deliberately uninformed about certain health and environmental issues. He describes having a friend who simply doesn't want to know about chemtrails or what might be falling from the sky. This friend prioritizes relaxation and simple pleasures—"I want a glass of wine and just leave me alone"—over investigating health-related concerns. Anthony respects this boundary, though he acknowledges that such dietary and lifestyle choices may catch up with people's health down the road.
Additionally, Anthony has a friend who incorporates pork products into baked goods, using "swine" and "pig fat" in their cooking. Rather than judge or distance himself based on these food choices, Anthony maintains the friendship.
Across all these situations, Anthony's philosophy is clear: he doesn't end friendships based on what people eat. As he puts it, "that's not how it rolls." He recognizes that food choices and dietary decisions don't determine whether someone is a good soul or not, allowing him to preserve meaningful relationships despite fundamental disagreements about health and nutrition.
Making cookies during live stream▾
Anthony William made gluten-free banana oat cookies from the Cleanse to Heal book during this live stream. He was excited to make cookies as a treat and showed the process of mashing bananas, adding cinnamon, maple syrup, raisins and oats, then baking them at 350 degrees until toasty brown.
Making his work look easy▾
Anthony told a guest: 'Well, I make it look easy. You really? That's what I'm told. No, really, you do. But we know. I mean, the the crafting is too much. Make it look easy. I wish I could use AI to write all the medical medium books, but I can't. It's not allowed to. All the other health authors, they'll all use it from here on out. I'm not. So, I have to suffer the consequences of'
Making non-alcoholic drinks▾
Anthony made various non-alcoholic drinks during his Amazon Live cooking show including spicy creamy chaga, mulled wine, apple cider, hibiscus apple tea, cranberry orange mimosa, and champagne mocktail. He jokes about being a fancy YouTube doctor with a mansion serving champagne to medical board members and clinic people, then switches to his casual style saying 'yo, you want an apple cider? sit down, relax, kick your feet up, you can put your feet on my coffee table.'
Maple water overdose experience▾
Anthony was in Maine with a friend who had a maple syrup operation set up. Despite Spirit warning him not to overdo it, Anthony drank about a gallon of fresh maple water, thinking it was incredible and comparing it to fresh coconut water. The tannins in the maple water made him violently ill - he was drooling for three days afterward. To this day, thinking about maple water makes his stomach turn and feel nauseous because the tannins created a nerve memory connected to the experience. He still believes in maple water as medicine but warns people to only drink small amounts.
Marijuana use▾
Anthony states he's not a big marijuana fan, doesn't use marijuana himself personally, and never did. He's not judging anybody who smokes, eats, or vaporizes pot, but it's not something he partakes in. He mentions having a friend who smokes a lot of pot that he hasn't seen in a while.
Media editing of his content▾
Anthony mentions that whenever he's done anything in media, 'they edit every single thing I say practically because I say it like it is like this all the time.' He explains this is why he speaks so directly and honestly in his live streams - because he always says it like it is, which media outlets feel the need to edit heavily.
Medical Medium Information Sources, Origins, and Evolution▾
# Anthony William (Medical Medium): Information Sources, Origins, and Evolution
Anthony William has been consistently sharing Medical Medium information for 35 years, providing straightforward, protective health advice to a wide range of people, including doctors and powerful individuals who seek his guidance. The information he presents is characterized as unique and original, not only for the past 35 years but extending back to his childhood. Rather than drawing from existing sources, Medical Medium information originates independently; instead, others throughout the world, including members of the scientific community, have taken Medical Medium information after it has been published and incorporated it into their own work.
The origin of Medical Medium information is fundamentally distinct from conventional medical knowledge. According to Anthony, the information does not come from broken science, interest groups, medical funding with strings attached, botched research, lobbyists, internal kickbacks, persuaded belief systems, private panels of influencers, health field payoffs, trendy traps, or gathered bits and pieces of gimmicky confusion. Instead, the information is not man-made but originates from a higher source that Anthony refers to as "Spirit of Compassion"—a pure, untampered with, advanced, clean, uncorrupted, original, and primary source. This source is understood differently by different people as God, the universe, the light, the creator, or as a helping hand from above that represents a greater force than exists down here on earth. Without access to this spiritual source, Anthony states he would be just as confused as everyone else, defaulting to unclear generalizations and uncertain explanations about health conditions.
Anthony emphasizes that he lacks formal medical credentials or higher education, never having attended or graduated from college. He describes himself as neither intellectually gifted nor a genius, and he attributes this deliberate point-making throughout his life to demonstrating that his achievements cannot be explained by personal intelligence or academic training. Despite this absence of credentials, he has written seven large medical textbooks that he describes as ahead of current science and research, paving the way for both alternative and conventional medicine. He explains that he would be incapable of independently figuring out detailed medical information—such as comprehensive brain science—through his own intellect. Rather, he receives information word for word from Spirit and must learn it himself, just like everyone else, becoming his own expert through the process of writing his Medical Medium books. This gap between his lack of formal education and the comprehensiveness of his medical work serves as evidence, in his view, that the information originates from Spirit rather than from personal genius or academic training.
All of the information in William's life comes from Spirit of Compassion. He states that there is nothing he has been able to learn on his own—he has had to learn everything from Spirit, whether regarding medical matters or even when asked about topics such as antiques and antiquities. All Medical Medium information is original and unique, not derived from or stolen from scientific papers or other existing sources, but taken directly from Spirit and then released into the health world, where it is subsequently "poached in bits and pieces" by others. Without access to this source, William explains, he would be "just like everybody else," trying random treatments such as urine therapy, alkaline water machines, and pearl powder, and he would be as blind as everyone else in the industry, since "everybody else doesn't know why anybody's sick." Instead, he describes himself as "really lucky" and "fortunate" to know why people are sick through this connection, which allows him to warn people away from dangerous treatments.
William describes his role as having a "very unfun job" of receiving information from Spirit of Compassion and then attempting to translate and put that information into words as a messenger for others. The cognitive and neurological demand of this work is significant—his neurons must constantly fire to process all the information he receives from Spirit of Compassion, requiring substantial glucose consumption. His role is fundamentally one of reception and transmission—being a good listener and messenger who must learn the information he receives just as others would, but whose access to the original spiritual source allows him to share knowledge that he could never have acquired through conventional means or personal study.
The credibility of Medical Medium information comes from what Anthony calls "street cred"—an organic movement of countless people around the world healing through Medical Medium guidance. The information has never been proven wrong by medical science and research and is ahead of research and science. However, Anthony acknowledges facing discrimination specifically because of where he gets the information from. He also points out that others take pieces of Medical Medium information without citing it back to him, making it appear as though the information originated elsewhere. Podcast doctors, social media doctors, influencers, and medical clinics have stolen and used the information without attribution. Given the urgency of providing healing information and the reality that people do not have 10, 20, or 30 years to waste waiting for information to be validated by traditional scientific channels, Anthony emphasizes the importance of sharing this knowledge immediately.
The Medical Medium information about avoiding fats has been taught for 35+ years, well before current health movements gained prominence. Anthony William lectured about it, wrote about it, and the health circuit from 35 years ago knows who he was and still knows who he is today. The low-fat information and understanding about why to avoid fats exists to the extent it does because of 35+ years of Medical Medium work, even though most people continue to consume high amounts of fats through keto diets and other fat-heavy approaches to nutrition.
Medical Medium Podcast: Creation, Distribution, and Business Philosophy▾
# Medical Medium Podcast: Creation, Distribution, and Business Philosophy
Anthony William created the Medical Medium Podcast as a free, uncensored resource deliberately distributed primarily through Apple Podcast. He made this platform choice because he was concerned that other distribution channels might upload censored versions with missing clips or content presented incorrectly, which would undermine the integrity of his message. For individuals without Apple devices, he ensured the podcast remained accessible through medicalmedium.com at no cost.
The financial philosophy behind the podcast reflects William's deeper values and long-term vision regarding his legacy. Approximately five years prior to his podcast launch, major Hollywood industries and advertising representatives approached him with lucrative opportunities, offering to pay him millions of dollars annually through sponsorships, commercials, and advertisers—the standard monetization model that many podcasters use to climb the podcast world's ladder. William declined these offers entirely, emphasizing that he made this decision based on what he believed God would appreciate when it came time for him to leave this life. As a six-time number-one New York Times bestselling author with millions of books distributed worldwide who has healed more people through his work than any other avenue in medicine, William had both the platform and credibility to command substantial advertising revenue. Instead, he chose to invest his own money into creating and maintaining a high-quality podcast, working hard on production while accepting zero income from it.
William's reasoning was rooted in his commitment to providing genuinely free access to healing information without barriers. The podcast contains no advertisers, no commercials, no sponsored content, no infomercials, and no subscription fees—meaning listeners can access episodes without interruptions or financial barriers. Despite having the potential to generate millions annually, he prioritized the user experience and accessibility of his message. He acknowledged the limitations of what he alone could accomplish in reaching people and asked listeners to share the podcast, recognizing that grassroots distribution would help extend the reach of healing information beyond what his individual efforts could achieve.
William's personal life also became part of the podcast's content. He recorded a special episode featuring his father, marking the first time he had invited a family member onto the Medical Medium podcast. William announced the episode with excitement and described it as a very special moment for him. He expressed nervousness about having his dad on the show but was genuinely excited about the interview, emphasizing that there was "a lot of wisdom in there." William spoke highly of his father, describing him as "way cooler than me" and "way more awesome than me," while noting that his dad was naturally shy but kindly agreed to participate in the interview.
Medical Medium community: impact, diversity, and support▾
# Medical Medium Community: Impact, Diversity, and Support
Anthony William has consistently described his community in deeply affirmative terms, characterizing members as "saints" and "the best people." Following a June 15th event, he expressed his profound appreciation, noting that "everybody in the Medical Medium community were literally saints. The best community, the best people, the best. I mean, all of it was just unbelievable."
The Medical Medium community is diverse in its dietary approaches. Anthony clarifies that approximately half of the community eats meat while the other half follows a plant-based diet. He emphasizes that Medical Medium information provides tools applicable to both approaches and has deliberately remained neutral, never taking sides in the plant-based versus animal protein debate. This neutrality extends to his broader philosophy of supporting followers regardless of their dietary choices. Anthony emphasizes his non-judgmental approach by saying that community members have his support whether they eat a chocolate cake, pizza, or a bacon double cheeseburger tomorrow. He acknowledges the difficulty of maintaining health in modern circumstances, stating "it's not an easy world, it's not an easy ride and I know it's not easy to stay healthy," and commits to maintaining his backing for people regardless of their choices.
Beyond community dynamics, William has documented significant healing outcomes through Medical Medium information and practices. Throughout his years of work, he has recovered many people who were severely injured by food poisoning, helping them reclaim their lives. He has encountered severe cases where individuals remained sick for months or even longer with no apparent hope or signs of recovery, suffering and struggling with no clear path forward. In these situations, Medical Medium information has brought people back to life. William has witnessed individuals reach critical states, teetering on the edge of losing their lives from dehydration and severe chronic illness triggered by food poisoning, yet has helped many of them achieve full recovery. He characterizes this pattern of recovery as part of an incredible phenomenon of Medical Medium information healing that has occurred around the world.
Anthony expresses amazement at meeting community members in person at recent events, specifically mentioning Julie Tuesday and others by name, saying he "can't believe" they met in person. He references a Long Island event with Organic Crush where Julie came up and introduced herself, highlighting the significance of these direct connections.
His commitment to helping community members extends beyond those who maintain loyalty to his work. Anthony William continued to help plotters even after Stephanie's death and even when they walked away from Medical Medium information, including helping some of them "in their darkest hour." This demonstrates his character of continuing to help people regardless of how they later treat him, reflecting a compassionate approach rooted in genuine care rather than conditional support.
Medical Medium information being stolen and the personal impact of intellectual property theft▾
# Medical Medium Information Being Stolen and the Personal Impact of Intellectual Property Theft
Anthony William has experienced persistent and widespread appropriation of Medical Medium information across multiple sectors of the health and wellness industry. He describes instances where influencers, podcast doctors, social media doctors, alternative health practitioners, and medical clinics have taken his published material without attribution or citation. In one documented case, Anthony observed an influencer reading verbatim from his book Liver Rescue without crediting Medical Medium as the source. The specific information taken included details about liver function, sluggish stagnant liver conditions, fats burdening the liver, pesticides and chemicals in the liver, and viruses causing liver problems—all foundational Medical Medium concepts presented as the influencer's own knowledge.
The scale of this intellectual property theft has reached what William characterizes as "an unbelievable level" and describes as "disgusting." He emphasizes that Medical Medium information is not merely being borrowed but is being stolen and "poached" systematically. What compounds the problem, in William's view, is that once his information is appropriated, people cannot trace it back to the original source to access complete healing information, thereby limiting their ability to fully benefit from the comprehensive Medical Medium framework.
William has observed a particular pattern where Medical Medium information gains scientific validation, after which the same information is adopted throughout both conventional and alternative health communities without acknowledgment of its original source. He points to the concept that pathogens cause inflammation as a prime example of original Medical Medium information that was published years before becoming part of mainstream scientific understanding. According to William, Medical Medium information continually sets the stage for medical science to understand chronic illness better, yet the scientific community takes and uses this information "illegally" without proper attribution. William asserts that Medical Medium information has never been proven wrong by medical science and research; instead, it has only been proven right, after which it is then appropriated and utilized throughout the medical establishment.
The personal impact of this widespread theft weighs heavily on William. He carries emotional pain from knowing that people steal Medical Medium information, present it as their own answers, and in doing so, prevent others from finding the real source for genuine healing. He describes this as carrying "a knife in my back, a knife in my side" every day. This emotional toll is compounded by what he sees as fundamental unfairness: his work is presented without credit while other sources receive validation and trust that Medical Medium itself is denied. The situation makes Anthony and those close to him "sick" because the theft of attribution directly undermines people's ability to access authentic healing guidance.
Medical Medium's Books, Marketing, and Public Identity▾
Anthony William's Medical Medium book series achieved remarkable commercial success through organic word-of-mouth rather than traditional marketing strategies. The first Medical Medium book became the number one health series in the world for seven years running, a position William attributes not to hired marketing or PR firms, but to the transformative impact the books had on readers' lives. People who experienced healing from conditions including multiple sclerosis, anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and Lyme disease became the primary advocates for the books, naturally sharing them with others and driving their popularity through personal testimonies of recovery.
Beyond its commercial success, the Medical Medium book series also made a notable impact on publishing conventions. William faced criticism for his choice to use "she" before "he" in the books' language and examples. He explains that this grammatical ordering was considered unprecedented in publishing at the time, with his publisher expressing the belief that the Medical Medium books were the first published books to place "he" after "she" in standard usage. While the publisher acknowledged the theoretical possibility that one book might have done this approximately 100 years prior, they considered the Medical Medium series to be breaking new ground in this linguistic approach.
Medical Medium's Practice, Collaborations, and Operations▾
Anthony William's Medical Medium practice operated from a location downstairs from an organic store, where people from around the world traveled to see him in person—coming from different countries and all across the United States seeking answers to their health problems. His work involved collaborating with clients' doctors to discover what was wrong with them. After appointments, he would take people upstairs to the organic store to help them acquire what they needed for healing, often teaching many people about organic produce for the first time in their lives.
The practice generated extraordinary demand that tested his capacity in multiple ways. William worked 20-hour days, seven days a week, beginning at 6 AM and continuing until midnight, with his schedule often interrupted by 24-hour emergency calls. He never took a single vacation throughout his entire career. His waiting list grew from thousands to hundreds of thousands to millions of people. His office was lined with hundreds of glass jars of herbs and spices on the walls that created a hay-like smell, where Spirit would communicate to him how to mix special herb combinations tailored to each person's specific illness. The intensity of his schedule meant his father would hardly see him, only briefly when visiting the office.
Throughout these demanding years, his receptionist heard patients requesting that he write books "a billion times" year after year. People from all walks of life—chronically sick individuals who had traveled the world seeing ten, twenty, or thirty doctors—would find the answers they needed through Medical Medium and then urge him to write books to share this information more widely. Doctors also encouraged him to write books and lecture to disseminate the information. People constantly told him that books would help manage the overwhelming demand, but he could not find the time to write while caring for all the people seeking his help.
William's team consisted of incredibly dedicated souls who care deeply about the chronically ill. They are highly intelligent, hardworking individuals who genuinely want people to heal. They assist with lights, cameras, and getting his message out to the world, effectively living and breathing their commitment to helping people heal.
Beyond his core practice, William expanded his reach through strategic collaborations. He worked personally on developing a special pizza crust with Chef Drew at Cafe Gratitude for an upcoming Medical Medium pizza party scheduled for March 3rd, 4th, and 5th, describing the creation as 'to live for.' He planned to be present in person for meet and greets and possibly light blasts during the event. The Medical Medium pizzas were designed to remain on the Cafe Gratitude menu permanently after the party, along with two Medical Medium cookies, creating a lasting partnership between his brand and the restaurant.
Medieval execution and spiritual understanding▾
# Medieval Execution and Spiritual Understanding
Anthony William explains that medieval execution practices, particularly beheading, were connected to an unconscious spiritual understanding about the human soul's location. During medieval times, people developed a strong inclination toward beheading others and displaying the severed heads on pikes throughout villages, a practice that William argues was not arbitrary or merely brutal tradition. Rather, he contends that people unconsciously sensed that significant energy resided in the head area, though they did not consciously realize that the soul actually resides there.
According to William's interpretation, this historical pattern reveals an innate knowledge about the spiritual significance of the head and brain region. The prevalence of beheading as an execution method specifically—rather than other forms of killing—suggests that people were detecting something essential about the head's importance, even without understanding the actual metaphysical reason. William emphasizes that punishment was not considered complete until the head was chopped off, indicating that executions involving other methods of killing the body were viewed as insufficient. This insistence on beheading as the final and necessary component of execution demonstrates a deep, if unconscious, recognition that the head area held the key to something spiritually significant about human life and death.
Meditation practices and Spirit's guidance▾
Anthony William reveals that the Brain Saver books contain meditations that he hasn't done publicly or even personally used yet. He explains that Spirit of Compassion gave him meditations specifically for the book, and when he asked why he wasn't given these meditations for his own use earlier, Spirit said 'this is for the book, this is for brain problems for people, critical to heal their brains.'
Meeting Dr. Junger▾
Anthony and Dr. Junger met at a party for one of Dr. Junger's book launches in 2009. Someone introduced them because they knew Dr. Junger followed true healers (described as being a 'healer groupie' rather than rock star groupie). Dr. Junger was initially skeptical but could see in Anthony's eyes that he believed what he was saying and wasn't faking.
Memory of older people complaining about smells▾
Anthony recalls that in the old days, many years ago, only old people complained about funny smells, asking questions like 'What's that smell on you?', 'Who left that door open?', 'Where's that smell coming from?', 'Why does my refrigerator smell when I open the door?'. He contrasts this with how now there are people who are truly chemical sensitive, and it's growing in the masses.
Mercury and Health▾
Anthony William has addressed mercury and health concerns through both clinical observation and public education. In the early 1990s, at the beginning of the mercury removal movement, he encountered a case involving a woman with chronic fatigue syndrome who had a full mouth of mercury fillings that were not defective or problematic. Despite his advice against the procedure, she had all her mercury fillings drilled out at once due to being told that mercury was the cause of her illness. The aggressive removal process exposed her to significant mercury vapor, making her condition worse rather than better. Her situation was further complicated when another dentist advised her that the composite replacements needed to be removed and mercury fillings reinstalled. She underwent the entire extraction and replacement process again, requiring Anthony to subsequently help her recover through antiviral protocols and heavy metal detoxification to address the accumulated damage from the repeated dental procedures.
Beyond this case study, Anthony has used direct demonstration to educate the public about mercury's dangers. During a live stream, he brought mercury with him as a visual aid while emphasizing that people should never touch, play with, or handle mercury under any circumstances. He used this demonstration to illustrate the connection between mercury exposure and various neurological and mental health symptoms that affect people, including migraines, ADHD, autism, depersonalization, depression, and anxiety—conditions he associates with mercury accumulation in the brain.
Mercury retrograde effects▾
Anthony mentions that 'mercury retrograde is kicking my butt lately' and 'merc retro is not being kind to the medical medium this time around,' which is why he needed more wild blueberry juice for power.
More pet information coming▾
AW promised he's going to be doing more pet information and podcasts about pets. It's been so long since the last one. He's a dog lover and a cat lover.
Motorcycle accident story and helmet importance▾
Anthony tells a detailed story about a motorcyclist who crashed at 80-90 mph, was walking around fine talking to police and EMTs with his helmet still on, but died the moment he removed his helmet after 45 minutes. Someone had told him not to remove the helmet, but confusion at the accident scene and the length of time without proper head injury care led to his death when he finally took the helmet off. This illustrates how head injuries can have delayed fatal consequences without proper immediate treatment.
Movie watching habits▾
Anthony mentions he had never seen The Matrix movie despite people referencing it for years in relation to health misinformation. He finally watched it after a friend insisted he see it, saying 'you got to see it, you got to see it, you got to see it.'
Moving apartment experience▾
Anthony shares a personal experience of moving to another apartment, describing his tendency to save everything - old mustard jars, Rubik's cubes, old chewing gum stuck on paper as reminders, ketchup packets, old running shoes from eight years ago that smell. He describes getting stressed from packing and needing caffeine, cannabis, chocolate, kombucha, beer, and wanting to order a cheeseburger during the moving process.
Moving apartments and saving possessions▾
Anthony shares a humorous personal story about moving to another apartment and his tendency to save everything - old mustard jars, a Rubik's Cube he's had forever, old chewing gum stuck to paper as reminders, ketchup packets, and running shoes from eight years ago that smell but he might wear again. He describes getting thirsty and hungry from all the packing and stress, wanting caffeine, cannabis, chocolate, kombucha, and beer while organizing his belongings.
Muscle car mechanic as teenager▾
AW worked on muscle car engines when he was a kid - 14, 15, 16 years old. He used to love it and could rebuild an engine. When he was younger, working on cars was easier than working on people - but then he found out working on people wasn't as easy either.
Mushroom picking story with friends▾
Years ago, Anthony went on a trail with two friends who were 'mushroom experts' - described as 'professors of mushrooms' who had studied extensively. They found a mushroom that looked like an edible bear's head mushroom, and both experts agreed it was edible. But when Anthony asked Spirit, he was told it wasn't edible. The friends didn't believe him, thinking he was just a 'mushroom genius' rather than hearing Spirit. They both ate the mushroom and got poisoned, though they were ultimately okay. Anthony notes they had been poisoned by mushrooms before in their field work.
Music preferences▾
Anthony likes many different types of music including Van Morrison, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, singer-songwriters, rock bands, rap, R&B, techno, and classical music. He says he loves all music.
Native American friend's cultural knowledge▾
Anthony shares that he had 'a native american a friend of mine' who told him about what their ancestors said about food testing. Back in the day, 'everybody stood around while one brave native american tried something new' to see if they could eat a tuber, shoot, or rhizome. They would watch to see 'how sick they get' - whether they got devastatingly sick, went unconscious, had their throat swell up, or died. This cultural knowledge helped Anthony understand why the stomach evolved to buffer poisons.
Nature as healing sanctuary and present moment practice▾
# Anthony William and Nature as Healing Sanctuary and Present Moment Practice
Anthony William's relationship with nature operates on multiple levels—as a profound spiritual healing experience, as a present-moment observational practice, and as a sanctuary he has intentionally created and maintained. His understanding of nature's healing power was crystallized during a formative childhood experience. While walking through woods in an unfamiliar area, he climbed a hill and discovered a spring flowing with water during a severe drought when all ponds and lakes had receded to their lowest levels and birds were desperately searching for water. He sat by the spring, listening to it and watching it flow. In this moment, Spirit of Compassion communicated to him that this experience was healing his soul, explaining that every trickle and detail he was witnessing was forming a memory and imprint that would reside permanently within him, entering through a passageway into his soul. Spirit conveyed that he would carry this experience far beyond his current lifetime as a protective and healing measure to help him remain strong throughout his life.
However, Anthony's access to nature has not been constant. He describes spending time in woods when possible throughout his life, but acknowledges that he has not always had consistent opportunity. He had some access during childhood and intermittently during his 20s, indicating that even his own nature connection has been interrupted by periods of years when he could not be near natural environments.
Despite any gaps, Anthony practices an engaged present-moment awareness when he is in nature. During a podcast recording conducted outdoors during spring, he described his real-time sensory experience in detailed observation: sitting on grass, he heard woodpeckers, various birds, wind blowing, chirping, and dogs barking in the distance, noting that everybody seemed excited about spring. He observed the visible world around him with attentiveness—bushes and shrubs, brand new leaves, grass emerging fresh and vibrant from the ground, looking alive. As he sat watching, he witnessed a bird flying in the wind with a stick in its mouth, appearing to be on its way to build a nest. This present-moment observation extends to his awareness of less visible phenomena as well; during another outdoor podcast segment, he pointed to four visible chemtrail trails in the sky at that specific moment, using it as a real-time example of how what is visible represents only a fraction of what was actually dispersed in that sector of sky.
Beyond his personal nature experiences, Anthony and his father created a supernatural sanctuary on their property that became a testament to nature's healing and relational qualities. Beginning as a temporary 15x20 foot puddle about a foot deep formed from rain, they maintained it by continuously filling it with water from their well using a hose. This small body of water attracted and became home to a diverse array of creatures that Anthony and his father understood to have consciousness and souls. Tiny fish appeared first, which Spirit indicated had come from the sky during rain. A baby turtle the size of a silver dollar discovered the pond and made it its home. Over the course of a couple of years, Anthony and his father fed it krill as it grew. Then a baby alligator approximately a foot long appeared and formed a friendship with the turtle, making happy sounds when they came to feed it. A large catfish also made the pond its home. Frogs laid eggs and tadpoles developed in the water. Remarkably, all the animals coexisted peacefully together as friends, eating the same krill food that Anthony and his father provided. His father would call him whenever new creatures appeared, and both of them developed deep affection for these animals, recognizing the real relationships and souls within each one. This sanctuary became a space where Anthony could witness nature not as passive scenery but as a community of conscious beings capable of friendship and peaceful coexistence.
Need for assistant due to psychic overwhelm▾
Anthony explains that because he gets readings for everyone around him constantly, he has to have an assistant come with him everywhere. He needs to go on planes with his assistant because with 150 passengers, he's going to get readings for every last one of them. At events, he practically falls off the stage, which he finds both humorous and embarrassing. The more readings he does, the more he needs assistance because he goes blind from the psychic overload.
Negative comments about Medical Medium community▾
The plotters made disparaging comments about the Medical Medium community throughout the recordings. One called followers 'vampires' who 'attack' and compared them to another health influencer's followers. Another said 'Every week, I have two or three new people who come in from the medical medium community who are fucked up.' These comments show their disdain for the chronically ill people in the community they claimed to want to help.
Never shaming clients with addictions▾
Anthony explains that throughout his career, going back to when he was younger and people were filing into his office, he never shamed a single person who walked through his door high on heroin, cocaine, caffeine, shrooms, pot, drugs, or prescribed opiates. Instead, he would tell them 'it's a hard world and something must have happened where the world was so darn hard that you must have had to somehow for some reason you fell into something. So what are we gonna do about it?' He understood that people came to him unable to break their various addictions - caffeine, alcohol, cigarettes, pot, amphetamines - and he approached them with compassion rather than judgment.
New York Mexican restaurant experience▾
In the late 1980s, Anthony went to a popular authentic Mexican restaurant in New York and asked for avocado/guacamole with his custom burrito. The staff had to bring the owner out, who nervously explained they rarely had avocado because nobody liked it, nobody bought it, and batches would sit there and turn brown. The owner said his wife liked it and they made guacamole every night for her, but didn't serve it to customers because it went to waste and people complained.
New car hood experience▾
Anthony recalls when his friend got a new car and wanted him to pop the hood. He expected to get greasy hands like with his own car, but was amazed to find his hands stayed completely clean because it was a brand new, clean engine with no grease anywhere. This gave him a revelation about what a truly clean slate looks like.
New spiritual book finished▾
When a psychiatrist asked about the next spiritual book, AW said 'I am very excited about a book I finished. I gave it to the publisher. But things aren't ready yet. So, I'm excited.'
Nighttime readings of strangers▾
Anthony sometimes sits up in the middle of the night and does readings on people he hasn't met yet, with no control over when it happens or who is chosen. Spirit has him give information and help these people heal during these nighttime sessions. He might meet these people later that week or even a year later. This has been happening since he was a child and affects his sleep.
Not actually having tattoos (joke)▾
Anthony clarifies after joking: 'I'm not Inked Up like I'm not Inked Up I don't want people think I'm in depth from my head down to my toes I'm not Inked Up' - this was after joking about having tattoos all over his body earlier in the show
Not naturally interested in health information▾
Anthony reflects: 'what if I wasn't even interested in anything in health... I heard the voice growing up right as a child Spirit of compassion giving me the info but what if I wasn't interested in any of this... what if I just want to paint what do I just want to like paint and do art and paint Landscapes and this is not what I even want to do it doesn't matter I'm still forced to do it thanks to Spirit of compassion but I do it with a smile and I'm at your service'
Obsessive questioning about planes in sky▾
After learning about chemtrails, Anthony became obsessed and would constantly ask Spirit of Compassion about every mark and plane in the sky. Spirit would identify them: 'that's a passenger plane,' 'that's a cargo plane,' and then there was the third type of plane that Spirit revealed was different from the others. This constant questioning was how Anthony learned to distinguish between different types of aircraft and their purposes.
Office consultations and helping people▾
Over the decades, people would come into Anthony's office from around the world because he was known as 'the bizarre symptoms guy' - having answers for symptoms for the first time in history and chronic illness. People would walk in and be amazed that he actually had an answer, and it wasn't candida, wasn't genes, wasn't the body attacking itself, and he wasn't prescribing bulky multivitamins. He actually explained what was happening to them.
Office practice - decades of seeing people▾
When I worked in the office for decades and people came to the office from miles around, from all over the land. And I remember someone walked through and I could see, I'd do a scan on the brain, on their head. And Spirit will say, do you see what I'm having you see? And I'll say, yeah, I see a Christmas tree. It looks almost like a Christmas tree. All kinds of lights lit up. And I said to Spirit, I remember the beginning, I said, why is it like a Christmas tree like that? Why is it like Christmas lights? And Spirit said, because the amount of electrical activity going on in somebody's brain, there's even different colors in that electrical, those electrical currents, different colors. They're not just sparky colors. There are all kinds of different colors. They're blues, even reds, pinks, sapphires, emerald colors, diamond colors, all kinds of different colors, some magenta, just all these different colors and electrical currents going through the brain.
Origin of 28-Day Cleanse▾
When someone asked Anthony when he came out with the 28-Day Cleanse, he explained that Spirit has been giving him this cleanse since he was a child for anybody that needed it. It wasn't something he just created recently, but has been using it to help people for decades - since childhood, through his teenage years, young adulthood, and continuing as an older adult.
Pain of being the messenger of truth▾
Anthony shares that being the messenger of Spirit's truth in the health field comes with 'a lot of pain on my end. A lot of pain in the brain' because he's always making people upset when he challenges embedded belief systems that have been formed from trendy health approaches. He says he can sense and feel when people are getting upset with his message, particularly when he breaks down popular health concepts that alternative medicine communities have built 'temples' and millions of dollars around.
Paints a target on his back▾
A viewer thanked AW saying 'Truly appreciate you and the fact that you always paint a target on your back for us.' AW responded 'Yeah, more so than people know' - indicating he faces more backlash and attacks than the public is aware of for putting out this information.
Palm reading incident during live performance▾
Anthony mentioned that during the live stream, Spirit of Compassion told him that someone watching was trying to read his palm lines through the video. He joked about being nervous about what they might see, saying things like 'they're finally gonna get him' or that he's going to 'work himself to death' burning the candle at 'six ends, seven, eight ends instead of one end, both ends.' He was impressed that someone was smart enough to try palm reading through video.
Paranoia about catching illnesses▾
Anthony is paranoid about catching things because Spirit tells him about tuberculosis on plane seats, MRSA on plane seats, and other pathogens. When he grabs door handles in public places, he uses his pinky and grabs from underneath. He doesn't want to catch varieties of shingles he doesn't need, especially when he's tired and might accidentally touch something then rub his eyes.
Parents bringing college students for amphetamine addiction▾
Anthony shares how many mothers made appointments and brought their college student sons or daughters into his office asking how to get them off prescribed amphetamines or black market amphetamines they were getting at school. He describes how universities have become places where students can walk around any corner and buy black market drugs, with a doctor friend telling him his son at a prestigious university could easily access all the amphetamines he wanted. The prescribed doses from doctors weren't enough for students to keep up with studies, so they supplemented with black market drugs that were practically passed out for free on campuses.
Parents' recognition of his gift and involvement over time▾
# Parents' Recognition of His Gift and Involvement Over Time
Anthony William's parents came to recognize and accept their son's extraordinary abilities through a dramatic and undeniable incident that occurred during his childhood. When Anthony was approximately seven or eight years old, he attended a hobbyist or historian convention with his father. At the event, Anthony began approaching strangers and sharing detailed information about their health conditions and physical problems, often by tugging on their jackets and directly telling them what was wrong with them. The strangers were startled, asking how he could possibly know such personal medical details about them. Within fifteen to twenty minutes, word spread throughout the convention, and a line began to form around Anthony as people grew increasingly interested in his insights. The situation grew exponentially, eventually reaching approximately a hundred people waiting in line, though accounts also mention the line expanding from 30 to 50 to 70 people. Over the course of four or more hours, Anthony worked through the line one person at a time, with each person who received information from him telling others, creating a cascading effect of demand for his readings. His father witnessed this extraordinary display firsthand, providing crucial validation of Anthony's abilities. This public demonstration proved impossible for his parents to dismiss or deny. Rather than resist or discourage his abilities, Anthony's parents became genuinely supportive, accepting the phenomenon as real and recognizing that they could not get away from or deny the reality of what their son could do.
Both of Anthony's parents are characterized as exceptionally sharp-minded individuals, described as being "sharp as tacks," demonstrating considerable mental acuity. His father is particularly notable for his physical build, being described as "like a tank" with considerable muscle mass—in fact, possessing more muscle than Anthony himself.
Beyond the initial validation at the convention, Anthony's parents demonstrated their commitment to understanding and facilitating his unique gifts throughout his childhood. They supported his interests by driving him to cemeteries when he wanted to visit them and keeping an eye on him during these experiences. His parents also warned him that his ability would likely not become easier over time. Instead, both his father and mother forewarned him about the inherent challenges he would face as he continued to develop and use his gift in the world. This parental guidance reflected their understanding of what lay ahead for their son as someone with extraordinary abilities.
Throughout his life, Anthony's parents have remained instrumental in validating his abilities and work. When questioned about when William began working as a medium, he directs people to speak directly with his parents, noting that they can vouch for him with stories spanning all the way back to his childhood. His parents' testimonies establish that his work with people and his abilities as a medium extend far beyond timelines some might assume—rather than starting five, seven, nine, twelve, or even fifteen years before the present, his parents attest that his gift and his work helping people have been present throughout his entire childhood and beyond.
In more recent times, his parents continue to be part of his daily life and public work. Anthony has mentioned that his parents occasionally watch his live streams, and he has directly acknowledged them during broadcasts, saying "My folks are watching this right now. My mom and dad, they'll think that's funny." His parents have also offered him personal feedback regarding his public behavior. During a visit to his parents' house, his mother asked him why he swears so much lately, expressing concern about the frequency. Anthony acknowledged her concern, saying "Oh, I know. I know. I know. I have to dial back," while recognizing that his father also enjoys swearing but understanding that he himself needs to reduce his own swearing. His parents have additionally advised him more generally not to swear as much, advice that Anthony acknowledges even as he sometimes catches himself about to swear.
His parents have also been entertained by moments from his online presence. They watched a video from an old Amazon Live stream where Anthony experienced an uncontrollable laughing fit while holding a toilet brush, finding the situation ridiculous and falling apart laughing. When his parents saw a post about this incident more recently, they watched the video themselves and experienced a similarly uncontrollable laugh that lasted for an hour straight, with both of them unable to stop laughing at the clip.
Past as drummer and using music to block Spirit▾
Anthony William revealed he used to be a drummer and would play loud music and try wearing earplugs to block out Spirit of compassion's voice. However, this got him into dangerous situations - at least one that was 'grave' - because he might miss important information that Spirit needed to tell him. This led him to stop trying to block the voice.
People asking why they didn't find Anthony sooner▾
Anthony remembers people coming to his office many years ago who had been sick for 25-30 years with conditions like Hashimoto's, thyroid problems, blood pressure issues, nerve problems, restless leg, insomnia, anxiety, depression. When they start getting answers and healing, they ask 'Anthony why didn't I find you 25 years ago?' He responds that 25 years ago he would have been very little (implying he's been doing this work his whole life).
People pointing forks at him▾
Anthony shares a personal annoyance about dining experiences: 'did anybody ever point before got you... did you ever have anybody do that I had so many point of work at me... I told you not... they're at the table with you and they're like pointing the forks at you that's like wait a minute why are you pointing the force at me.'
Performance Anxiety Across Live Settings▾
# Anthony William's Performance Anxiety Across Live Settings
Anthony William demonstrates notable vulnerability regarding live performance situations, despite his overall confidence in delivering spiritual information. He has openly acknowledged experiencing nervousness across multiple types of public appearances and live demonstrations, revealing a more human side beneath his assured public persona.
In public speaking engagements, Anthony has directly expressed anxiety about these events. He noted his nervousness about speaking at a June 15th event at Erewhon, acknowledging that public speaking is something he rarely does. In his own words, he stated: "I'm getting nervous now. I am because I'm speaking at this Erewhon event. I'm speaking so I'm getting nervous now." This admission illustrates the contrast between his confidence in delivering spiritual information and his discomfort with the performance aspects of public speaking.
Anthony's anxiety is particularly pronounced during live cooking demonstrations. He experiences significant performance pressure when cooking on camera, feeling considerable responsibility not to make mistakes during these live broadcasts. The difference between his private and public cooking experiences is striking—when cooking alone without viewers, his nori rolls come out looking amazing and incredible. However, when people are watching during live streams, the same rolls come out looking terrible and torn up. Anthony has joked about being jinxed when being observed, wondering what fundamentally changes about his performance when he's being watched versus cooking in private. He describes feeling adrenaline and nervous, adrenalized emotions from doing cooking shows, particularly noting that he hasn't done a cooking show in a really long time.
The core of Anthony's live performance anxiety stems from the unpredictability and irreversibility of unedited broadcasts. He gets nervous when going live because it's not pre-recorded, meaning he could make a terrible mistake, such as saying something inappropriate. Despite being a number one bestselling author, his advisors have recommended he never do anything live and instead follow the example of other YouTube creators by pre-recording and editing content to "candy coat" everything. However, despite these professional recommendations against live performances, Anthony prefers the live format with his audience, indicating that his desire to connect authentically with viewers outweighs his anxiety about potential errors. To manage the nervousness he experiences when going live, he would use the nerve shifter as a coping tool.
Performance anxiety and embarrassment: dancing and singing▾
# Anthony William's Relationship with Performance Anxiety and Embarrassment in Dancing and Singing
Anthony William's connection to performance and artistic expression has been shaped by both childhood aspirations and adult vulnerability. As a child, Anthony harbored dreams of becoming a dancer, but this aspiration was redirected when Spirit of Compassion told him he was going to be a messenger instead, not a dancer. When Anthony protested that he wanted to dance, Spirit insisted his path was as a messenger bringing healing information to others, effectively closing the door on his dancing career.
Despite having his childhood dancing dreams deferred, Anthony has maintained a light-hearted and unbothered attitude toward performing and potentially embarrassing himself through movement. During a halftime break at an event, he performed "the robot" dance, acknowledging his own self-consciousness about it: "I like the robot... am I embarrassed yeah I'm embarrassed... do I care no. I don't mind embarrassing myself I don't care." This demonstrates a philosophical acceptance of potential humiliation in the service of entertainment and connection with his audience.
His relationship with singing, however, reveals deeper performance challenges rooted in technical difficulties rather than mere shyness. During a significant stage performance, Anthony faced multiple equipment failures that severely impacted his ability to perform effectively. His guitar microphone was not turned on, preventing him from hearing what notes he was playing, and his monitor was also not hooked up, meaning he couldn't hear his own voice while singing. This left him essentially "singing to nothing to air" with no auditory feedback whatsoever. He described the experience as "just standing there like a naked baby throwing it all out there," and later when reviewing the performance, he was mortified, saying "oh my God God help me."
This technical disaster appears to have reinforced Anthony's own assessment of his vocal abilities. He has openly admitted with self-deprecating humor that "I can't sing. That's embarrassing as heck," while referencing The Beatles song "Don't Let Me Down" at the end of a show. This humble acknowledgment of his limitations showcases his willingness to be vulnerable with his audience, contrasting sharply with his carefree attitude toward dance-related embarrassment. While he doesn't mind looking foolish through dancing, his struggles with singing—compounded by equipment failures and his own acknowledged lack of professional vocal training—reveal a performer who is acutely aware of his technical shortcomings in this particular medium.
Personal Brain Shot Experiences and Usage▾
Anthony William has extensively tested brain shot formulas through direct personal experience to verify their effectiveness before recommending them to others. His experiences span multiple formulas and demonstrate both their acute and ongoing applications in his life.
Among the specific formulas he has personally tested are the dream shifter brain shot and the ego shifter brain shot. He used the ego shifter during a period when he felt his ego becoming inflated from the success of his books, utilizing it to help manage that mental state. He attributes his detailed knowledge of these formulas' efficacy directly to his hands-on experience with them.
Anthony has also turned to brain shots during periods of extreme physical and mental exhaustion. During one particularly demanding work period, he worked a 25-27 hour day while experiencing burnout on multiple fronts. The following morning, after managing only an hour of sleep—which he recognized as insufficient recovery—he retrieved the burnout stabilizer brain shot formula ingredients from his refrigerator and consumed two shots in succession to address his severely depleted state.
His experiences with the negative energy exposure shots and betrayal shot demonstrate the emotional and energetic shifts he perceives from these formulas. On one occasion, he took three negative energy exposure shots spaced periodically throughout the day rather than in the standard ten-minute intervals. With the betrayal shot, he similarly took three shots spaced throughout the day, and during one intake he described feeling as though his eyes were welling up with tears despite not actually having cried. He characterized the sensation as something leaving that shouldn't have been there, describing it poetically as 'angels have gifted me the ability to get rid of whatever that was - the hurt - without me having to go through the experience again.' He experienced this as clearing something out, like a cloud lifting. The effect was significant enough that he felt so emotionally stabilized afterward that he believed even if the worst troll said something terrible, he wouldn't get upset on any level.
When taking the adrenal fight or flight stabilizer live, Anthony described observing the formula's physical effects in real time. He noticed that while it was working on his brain, his brain was sending a message to his adrenals, and he could feel that message being driven down his vagus nerves and spine toward his adrenals. He perceived his adrenals actually receiving and absorbing the information, making the communication between brain and body system directly perceptible to him.
Personal Daily Habits, Health Routines, and Lifestyle Choices▾
# Anthony William's Personal Daily Habits, Health Routines, and Lifestyle Choices
Anthony maintains a distinctive and disciplined approach to his daily life across multiple dimensions. His morning health regimen is centered on supporting liver function and detoxification. He begins each day with lemon water, followed by celery juice, which he continues to use and genuinely enjoys. A key principle guiding his morning routine is avoiding all fats until noon, as he believes this allows his liver to purge, rebuild, and restore its bile reserves. He is particularly careful to eliminate oils from his morning intake, refusing coconut butter, peanut butter, olive oil, and other fatty substances during this window—whether consumed at home or inadvertently at a friend's house. He also makes use of HMD, a product he remains enthusiastic about and notes is available at Cafe Gratitude.
Beyond his dietary practices, Anthony engages in extensive personal health monitoring. He checks his oxygen levels multiple times using a finger monitor and manually counts his heart rate using the "Mississippi" method. Most notably, he monitors his blood sugar every hour using an arm monitor, which he must check by removing his clothes to access the private monitor underneath. While demonstrating these monitoring practices, Anthony clarified that this level of obsessive health tracking is not indicative of a disorder on his part, but rather was meant to illustrate the kind of obsessive monitoring that many people engage in with their health metrics.
When it comes to public bathroom practices, Anthony follows particular hygiene protocols that he acknowledges might seem excessive to some. He always flushes before using a toilet even if it appears clean, uses paper on seats, and carries handy wipes with him rather than relying solely on washing his hands at public sinks that many others touch. While he recognizes this approach might sound silly to some, he maintains there are good reasons behind these practices.
Regarding household responsibilities, Anthony has pushed back against the assumption that he avoids domestic tasks. When someone suggested to him that he doesn't clean up, vacuum, or handle household duties, he firmly corrected this misconception, asking why such tasks would be beneath him and asserting "you better believe" he does all that stuff, including cleaning the kitchen and vacuuming. In his eating habits, Anthony has developed a particular routine involving his pet Groovy. He has become so accustomed to having Groovy present during meals that he cannot eat without the pet being with him at all times. As he explains it, "I can't eat without Groovy with me at all times now for some reason. I have to have Groovy here when I eat."
Beyond practical routines, Anthony has a genuine passion for culinary creation. He particularly loves making banana ice cream, which he describes as "one of my favorite things to make." He expresses this enthusiasm with humor, joking about how he would respond if asked what his favorite thing to do is: "Well doctor, I like to make banana ice cream. I can make it all day. Is there something wrong with that?"
Regarding substance use and lifestyle choices, Anthony doesn't touch weed or alcohol, calling himself "boring as hell at a party" and saying "no one wants to see me at a party." He clarifies he's not judging anyone but personally doesn't use substances, having used wild blueberries all his life instead of weed.
Personal Environmental and Lifestyle Exposures▾
# Anthony William: Personal Environmental and Lifestyle Exposures
Anthony William's approach to environmental and lifestyle exposures reflects both his claimed spiritual abilities to detect contaminants and his practical precautions against various health threats. Regarding air travel, he describes having a gift that allows him to detect specific pathogens on airplane seats, such as MRSA or tuberculosis left from previous passengers' coughs and sneezes. However, recognizing that others lack this ability, he recommends using handy wipes for protection. When flying, he takes additional radiation precautions by refusing to go through airport scanners, choosing pat downs instead to avoid the radiation exposure he believes airport scanners provide. He also uses what he calls "the radiation exposure brain shot" after every flight, explaining that radiation from air travel remains in the body—making people "glow in the dark"—and persists until death unless actively removed through Medical Medium tools.
William maintains substantial daily exposure to electronic devices through constant use of computers and phones for his work. Despite publicly recommending the use of speakerphone, he acknowledges sometimes placing his phone directly to his ear. He attributes the necessity for what he refers to as "the EMF and 5G shot" to this constant device exposure. During live streams, he practices caution by keeping his phone on airplane mode.
His heat tolerance significantly exceeds that of most people, particularly regarding heat on his hands. When preparing millet mixture during demonstrations, he notes that the preparation is "even hot for me and I can handle like heat on my hands," a capacity that has impressed viewers who commented they had "never seen anything like it" in response to his demonstrated tolerance.
At his residence, William uses a whole house water filtration system designed to remove chlorine from the water supply, though he has acknowledged uncertainty about the specific brand and indicated he would investigate and provide further details to his audience.
William has experienced firsthand the issue of toxic clothing treatments. He ordered a new shirt that arrived completely saturated with fungicide—a common practice among clothing manufacturers—making it unwearable. He explains that most people would not recognize this coating as fungicide, instead attributing the smell to perfume or remaining unaware of it altogether, particularly if accustomed to conventional detergents, fabric softeners, plug-in air fresheners, toxic candles, and potpourri in their homes. This personal experience exemplifies his teaching about how toxins from clothing can be absorbed into the body and affect reproductive health.
William uses masks selectively as protection against specific environmental toxins, particularly perfumes, colognes, and air fresheners, and has favorite masks he relies on when anticipating exposure to these substances. He explicitly states, "I am not anti-mask," clarifying his position on this protective measure.
Personal Food Preferences, Habits, and Eating Practices▾
# Anthony William's Personal Food Preferences, Habits, and Eating Practices
Anthony William's relationship with food reflects both his published teachings and personal dietary choices, shaped by childhood memories, spiritual guidance, practical constraints, and honest acknowledgment of his own vulnerabilities with food.
## Childhood Influences and Food Memories
William's food journey began with childhood experiences that would significantly shape his later dietary philosophy. His mother regularly made him macaroni and cheese, baking it until it developed a brown and crispy top—a dish he loved so much that when Spirit advised him around age seven or eight that he shouldn't eat cheese, he resisted the guidance because the hot, freshly baked dish tasted too good. This changed dramatically when he tasted fresh figs and pears from his great grandfather's pear tree, an experience that opened his eyes to how naturally delicious whole foods could be. He became so enamored with the pears that he couldn't eat enough of them and found himself completely filled with them. He has also acknowledged the deep emotional and spiritual dimensions of certain foods, recognizing how items like eggs become attached to our souls through loving experiences and memories—times when mothers or grandfathers prepared them or when they were shared with loved ones. He admits missing eggs, stating "Boy, they taste good, those eggs. God, they taste good. I mean, I haven't had one since I was a kid, but boy, do they taste good. Yeah, no, I miss those. I miss those." Despite his affinity for eggs and the emotional weight they carry, he has made the dietary sacrifice to follow his healing protocols and has never judged people for their food choices, instead serving as a messenger conveying information about how certain foods interact with pathogens.
## Core Daily Foods and Preferences
Potatoes hold a particularly special place in William's diet as his explicitly stated favorite food. He has developed a particular fondness for pairing potatoes with rosemary, describing rosemary with potatoes as "one of my favorite things in the whole wide world" and emphasizing that whenever he has potatoes, he tries to always include rosemary. His consumption of fresh produce is extensive and centers on fruits, vegetables, and herbs, though he remains somewhat private about complete details of his eating practices, having stated that he will someday fully reveal what he eats and how he approaches his personal diet. He consumes papaya regularly—noting he has opened thousands over the decades—as well as oranges and potatoes. He has consumed wild blueberries, which he distinguishes from regular cultivated varieties, noting that the large blueberries sold in clam shells are much weaker than wild ones. He has had wild blueberries before going on air for radio shows.
Spinach holds particularly important significance in William's daily routine. He personally consumes one large container per day, sometimes one and a half containers, and has occasionally eaten two full large containers daily as a consistent practice. He views spinach as an incredible healing tool that maintains skin health and helps prevent various diseases and cancers. Lemon balm tea has also become integral to his regular consumption. He loves lemon balm and describes it as a very healing herb, drinking it during livestreams. For his regular lemon balm consumption, he typically takes a dropperful of lemon balm and adds it to water with honey in a large mug to create lemon balm tea. This preparation becomes particularly significant during intensely busy work periods. When engaged in demanding book-writing projects and working late into the night, he relies heavily on lemon balm tea with honey as a sustaining food source. During these extended work sessions, he may consume up to ten tablespoons of honey daily, sometimes repeating lemon balm tea preparation up to ten times throughout the day when too busy to prepare proper meals. He credits this approach's effectiveness to a critical dietary principle: he consumes no fats during these intensive work periods—neither animal proteins nor plant-based fats or oils. This fat-free consumption prevents insulin resistance and allows him to derive energy directly from glucose rather than relying on caffeine or manufactured stimulants. Using this method, he sustains twenty-hour work days powered by the sustained energy from honey and lemon balm tea.
## Supplemental Foods and Specialized Preparations
For spirulina and barley grass consumption, William has developed a long-standing personal method he has favored for many years. He cuts melons—honeydew, cantaloupe, or crenshaw—in half and scoops out the seeds, then sprinkles spirulina and barley grass juice powder directly into the hollowed-out melon. He takes this preparation to his desk and eats it with a spoon, consuming both the supplements and the ripe melon together. He has employed this method so many times that it has become one of his favorite ways to take these supplements.
William demonstrates making his HMDS (Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie) using mango instead of banana because he didn't have bananas on hand, mentioning he had mangoes in the fridge for a while and should have eaten them sooner. He likes eating HMDS with a spoon sometimes rather than drinking it, and he'll suck on the mango pit later because he's a mango fan. He keeps a copy of his own book Cleanse to Heal by his bed and consults it to remind himself of recommendations he might have forgotten.
## Cooking Habits and Kitchen Philosophy
William approaches cooking as both a personal practice and a vehicle for helping others. He regularly hosts Amazon Live cooking shows where he demonstrates recipes while simultaneously providing health information, viewing these demonstrations as entirely different from his regular content and part of his broader mission to help people suffering from illness. During these shows, he has prepared various dishes including sugar cookies, raspberry thumbprint cookies, a gluten-free and dairy-free chickpea quiche with broccoli, onions, and garlic, mini pizzas, and curried potato pea cilantro hash. When cooking, he focuses on phytochemical compounds in food rather than fiber content alone.
In his personal kitchen philosophy, William is notably hands-on about cleanup. He emphasizes that he is "the kitchen cleaner" and wants people to understand that no service or team comes in after his cooking demonstrations—he personally makes the mess and cleans it all up himself. Despite the physical and mental demands of juggling multiple recipes, managing complex logistics, delivering information to viewers, and dealing with the emotional weight of knowing people are struggling, he manages these responsibilities while remaining patient with his own bodily needs, even using personal moments like experiencing gas during live shows as teaching opportunities to help viewers understand digestive discomfort.
William's approach to cooking is casual and intuitive rather than strictly formulaic with precise measurements, reflecting a personal style that prioritizes taste preferences and feel over rigid adherence to recipes. He is notably partial to onion, often adding extra amounts to recipes because he "really really likes it." When preparing vegetables like kale, he removes thick stems to prevent the salad from being too chewy, and he demonstrates specific techniques for removing seeds from bell peppers. He prefers cutting potato pieces to a medium size—not too big or too small.
When asked about his chopping and cutting technique, William acknowledged that he received emotional criticism about his style, with people giving him tips saying they don't like his method or that he's going to cut himself. He responded that he happens to like the way he chops personally and has had many years of experience. He mentioned being more careful during live streams because unlike other content creators who can edit out accidents, he's doing it live. He also noted that chefs in restaurants often wear gloves because band-aids aren't sufficient for frequent cuts.
## Home Garden and Ingredient Sourcing
William maintains a home garden where he grows several ingredients including basil, rosemary, dinosaur kale, collard greens, and cayenne peppers, though he notes that onions and lettuce in his dishes don't come from his garden. He has acknowledged his "selfish" preference for making dishes he personally wants to eat—such as curried potato pea cilantro hash—even during holiday seasons when more traditional meals might be expected. This reflects his approach of balancing personal enjoyment with his mission to help others through his cooking demonstrations and the content he creates.
## Eating Demonstrations and Food Combinations
During demonstrations, William asks viewers not to "crucify" him if they see him eat different mono foods during the demo (papaya, banana, peas, potatoes) because he needs to show everyone the different options, even though normally you wouldn't mix foods on a mono cleanse. He jokes that "something might slip into my mouth and get in there."
## Restaurant Dining Practices
Restaurant dining presents particular challenges for William due to contamination concerns. He follows strict practices when eating out, guided by what he describes as Spirit's direction to consume "fresh fruits, fresh vegetables" since "we're only here so long. You got to get as many meals as you can in you that are good." To mitigate bacterial contamination risks from kitchen sinks and staff, he orders cooked foods that come very hot and is cautious about cross-contamination. He requests specific accommodations
Personal Health Experiences and Interventions▾
# Anthony William: Personal Health Experiences and Interventions
Anthony William has maintained relatively limited acute personal health experiences, though he has developed highly specific protocols for addressing potential illnesses based on spiritual guidance. He has never had a urinary tract infection in his life and has expressed hope that he never will, though he has outlined detailed supplement regimens and dosages he would employ should he develop one.
A significant personal health experience occurred approximately 5-6 years ago during an extensive period of travel that left him severely run down. He was spending more time in airplanes than on the ground while managing sleep deprivation, significant stress from deadlines, responsibilities helping family members and visiting hospitals, and exposure to illness from those around him. During this time, a major flu outbreak was occurring, with nearly everyone in his vicinity becoming sick with sinus infections, coughs, and fevers. Despite his weakened state, Anthony felt a tickle in his throat and recognized the early signs that he was coming down with the flu himself. At this critical moment, he received guidance from Spirit to use liquid zinc sulfate and employ what he calls "zinc shock therapy." According to his accounts, the treatment protocol involved taking 4-5 dropperfuls of zinc and holding it in his throat for two minutes, as instructed by Spirit. In another version of this experience, he described shooting multiple dropperfuls of liquid zinc sulfate directly into his throat, allowing it to sit, and repeating this process every two hours. Despite being severely sleep-deprived—managing only an hour of sleep here and there—Anthony woke up the following morning completely recovered. The flu never took hold in his body, while those around him became severely ill. He attributed this rapid resolution entirely to the zinc shock therapy intervention initiated at the first sign of symptoms.
Beyond acute interventions, William has developed rigorous personal supplementation protocols. He takes B12 daily as a standard practice, consuming 2 dropperfuls twice daily during regular periods. However, when facing demanding circumstances—such as working 18-20 hour days or experiencing extreme stress—he significantly increases his intake to 4-6 dropperfuls twice daily. His approach to B12 extends beyond his own regimen; he maintains an active practice of checking on family members' B12 consumption, regularly inquiring about their intake levels and frequency in what he describes as a persistent, continuous manner occurring "all day long." He constantly asks people whether they've taken their B12 and how much they're taking, with specific examples including checking on family members like his aunt Margaret, reminding them not only to take their supplements but emphasizing the importance of consistent daily usage.
In contrast to his advocacy for B12, William has explicitly rejected fish oil supplementation. He states that he has never taken a fish oil supplement because he "knows better," and he advises others against it based on what he considers sufficient evidence to warrant avoidance.
William also maintains specific physical characteristics that inform his health practices. He personally runs a really low body temperature, unlike some people who run higher body temperatures like 98.6 or 98.7 degrees, a distinction he uses as an example when explaining the difference between hot water temperature and body temperature in relation to lemon water consumption.
A notable aspect of William's personal health success relates to his dental health. He has consumed lemons daily for years and decades, sucking on them and doing lemon water every single day, with lemon in his life all day long in some form. Despite this heavy and prolonged citrus consumption, he doesn't have veneers, implants, drilled teeth, abscesses, gum disease, cavities, bridges, dentures, root canals, and doesn't need any of these procedures. He attributes maintaining his teeth to mineralized leafy greens, lemons providing bioavailable calcium, and avoiding vinegar and caffeine.
William's most extensively documented personal health practice involves his juicing regimen. He has purchased some of the most expensive juicers available on the market, though he describes this as "insane" and "stupid" in retrospect. His experience with high-end juicers revealed significant inefficiencies—with previous models, he found himself needing to purchase a full case of celery per week just to meet his juicing needs. His juicing routine involves consuming substantial quantities of celery juice daily, ranging from 32 to 60 ounces. Before going live for streams, he drinks his celery juice as part of his regular morning habits, and his juicer typically remains in the corner of his room with pulp still in it from earlier juicing sessions.
His approach to juicing changed dramatically after acquiring the MM-900 juicer. With this model, he experienced what he describes as a "life-changing" reduction in celery consumption. Previously, he needed to buy two cases of celery for the week, but with the MM-900, he only needs approximately one case—just a little more than half of what he previously required. This superior efficiency is due to the juicer's advanced extraction capabilities, which produces significantly more juice while leaving drier pulp. The efficiency gains have been substantial enough that he exclaims about the cost savings, wondering "oh my god what can I do with all the extra money, this is insane." He estimates that the juicer has paid for itself thousands of dollars over time through reduced celery purchases alone.
Personal Mannerisms and Communication Style▾
Anthony William's communication style is marked by distinctive vocal characteristics that stem from his intensive work style. He speaks rapidly while simultaneously thinking and listening to Spirit, which requires him to frequently intake breath during his broadcasts. This heavy breathing, audible to listeners, is compounded by his habit of staying very close to his microphone while recording—what he describes as "kissing the mic"—in order to maintain proximity while managing multiple cognitive tasks at once. When audience members have commented on these breathing sounds, he explains the necessity behind them as an inevitable result of his multitasking approach to channeling information and speaking.
Beyond his vocal patterns, Anthony has developed a distinctive physical mannerism over the years involving reflexive throwing motions. He acknowledges that whenever someone hands him an object, he automatically throws it into the air. He recognizes this as an ingrained habit that has become an automatic response, and admits to some self-awareness about the behavior, expressing that "I don't think that's a great thing," indicating he views it as an unconscious quirk rather than a deliberate choice.
Personal Relationships▾
# Personal Relationships
Anthony has cultivated several meaningful personal relationships across different circles. He describes Bryce as "a good guy" but "a little crazy"—not totally nuts, just somewhat eccentric—and notes that Bryce has been "rubbing off on him" or vice versa, indicating a mutual influence between them. Despite characterizing Bryce as crazy, Anthony's tone suggests genuine fondness for him.
Among his closer relationships, Anthony counts Scott Bakula and Chelsea Field as "dear friends." He expresses particular honor and amazement at their long-term commitment to spreading his medical medium information, noting that they have been using the material and purchasing his books for years specifically to give to friends, family, and even strangers on the street.
Anthony's social circle also includes numerous wealthy individuals whom he knows personally. These acquaintances are characterized by a lifestyle of constant vacation and travel—regularly boarding yachts and boats, skiing in places like Aspen, and vacationing around the world. Despite the apparent luxury of their lives, Anthony observes that they require frequent vacations from their vacations and need numerous massages to recover from their travels. When they ask him why he doesn't take vacations himself, Anthony responds that he is too busy working and has never taken a vacation, often quipping to them that they should simply "take another vacation."
Personal Spiritual and Energetic Self-Understanding▾
# Anthony William: Personal Spiritual and Energetic Self-Understanding
Anthony William's approach to spiritual development is deeply integrated into both his personal practice and his professional work. Since receiving his initial spiritual connection at age four, he has maintained a continuous relationship with what he calls Spirit of Compassion. This spiritual presence has shaped his understanding of himself as someone fundamentally different from most others—a "sensitive guy" who must care deeply and understand on a profound level what he is caring about. Spirit of Compassion taught him this necessity early in life, making him, in his view, "a different creature" compared to other men, whom he perceives as operating more like "robots" in their interactions and emotional engagement.
Despite possessing this significant gift of hearing Spirit's voice, Anthony characterizes himself as "not a smart guy" but identifies being "a very good listener" as one of his core abilities. He was born a skeptic and describes himself as someone who would naturally be skeptical if he were in others' positions. He understands and does not blame people when they doubt him, recognizing their skepticism as reasonable. Importantly, he emphasizes that the gift itself exists for other people rather than for himself, which is why his medical books are written as medical textbooks packed with information received from above rather than personal narrative. This dual nature—possessing extraordinary abilities while maintaining a grounded, skeptical perspective—influences how he navigates everyday decisions and spiritual awareness.
Meditation and spiritual practices form a cornerstone of Anthony's personal spiritual life. He incorporates meditations throughout his Medical Medium books, lectures, and workshops in various formats. What distinguishes his approach to guided meditation, according to his own account, is his active spiritual presence during the practice. He emphasizes that he is "in the meditation holding your hand through it, making sure that I'm guiding you through it," and he believes this guidance remains effective even when practitioners fall asleep. He describes these meditations as originating from a spiritual source, noting they "are from above."
In his personal practice, Anthony demonstrates commitment to the meditations he teaches. During powerful moon phases, particularly during a blue moon period, he repeatedly practices the moon meditation. During one such lunar event, he did the meditation one evening and planned to do it again that same night while they were "still in that epic moon," and he also practiced the fruit picking meditation on that same day, showing his direct engagement with the teachings he shares. His meditation routine incorporates specific rituals and practices. Before meditating, he typically drinks wild blueberry juice. A friend has noted his "interesting way of entertaining himself" when alone, observing that he speaks to his blender while it operates, offering it encouragement with comments like "Good job blender, fantastic for getting this done" and addressing the ingredients being blended. This reflects a personalized, conversational approach to his daily practices.
Beyond traditional seated meditation, Anthony practices star gazing meditation using a simple "$25 lawn chair" that he opens fully to allow himself to lean back without straining his neck. He engages in this practice for 5-10 minutes at a time, observing the stars and occasionally witnessing falling stars, which he describes as "the best thing ever." He has also recently spent time in the woods, where he engages in spiritual inquiry, asking Spirit about aspects of nature such as tree root depth. This combination of formal meditation, personal ritual, and nature-based spiritual exploration demonstrates a multifaceted approach to deepening his spiritual connection.
Anthony's spiritual work provides him with continual sources of personal amazement and discovery. He expresses genuine excitement about the dimension of hearing Spirit directly, noting that he gets to hear new revelations as they arrive and respond with authentic wonder: "That's one of the perks about the job of hearing Spirit since age four, is you get to hear the stuff coming in, this new, profound information coming in from Spirit. And then I get to hear it and be like, whoa, that blows me away. So it's exciting."
However, Anthony's spiritual awareness includes critical discernment and vigilance. He has encountered various belief systems that challenge his perspective on spiritual understanding. In a recent encounter with someone he hadn't spoken to in years, he found himself shocked by their worldview. This person had adopted a spiritual framework asserting that no evil exists in the world, only universal balance and the absence of bad people. Anthony's reaction to this encounter was one of disbelief, using it as an example of what he characterizes as spiritual brainwashing. This experience reinforced his conviction that spiritual awareness requires conscious discernment rather than adopting blanket spiritual philosophies that deny the existence of harmful forces or individuals. He emphasizes the importance of being conscious of what is happening in one's surroundings as a necessary protective measure—both for oneself and for one's loved ones.
Anthony's energetic and physical self-understanding is equally distinctive. His naturally high energy levels are frequently misunderstood by friends, audiences, and podcast listeners, many of whom assume he must be consuming large quantities of caffeine to sustain his characteristic rapid speaking pace. However, Anthony clarifies that maintaining a slower speaking pace actually requires deliberate effort on his part, as his naturally elevated energy comes from clean glucose sources found in whole foods rather than stimulants. His brain runs efficiently on natural sugars derived from sources like potatoes, lemons, and tomatoes, without the interference of fats that can block glucose uptake. He avoids caffeine entirely despite already possessing sufficient natural energy levels, partly because he has no need for additional stimulation and partly because he is aware that caffeine places strain on the adrenal system. Instead of caffeinated beverages, he opts for decaffeinated herbal alternatives, such as nettle tea, which he has been known to drink during webinars and other public appearances.
Anthony demonstrates deep personal familiarity with neurological conditions, having spent the last three decades connecting symptoms to the vagus nerve. He has taught numerous doctors about how the vagus nerve functions in relation to neurological symptoms, establishing himself as someone with both knowledge and hands-on experience in this area. Since childhood, he has maintained a sensitivity and connection that allows him to feel what he puts in his body and understand what it does to him, contributing to his sophisticated understanding of his own neurological and energetic patterns.
Beyond emotional sensitivity, William experiences a pronounced and distinctive sensitivity to cologne that he identifies as one of the things that bothers him most. He is emphatic in clarifying that this reaction stems not from general chemical sensitivity but rather from a genuine dislike of the smell itself. When exposed to cologne, he experiences nausea, and the fragrance becomes trapped in his sinuses where it lingers persistently, interfering with his sense of taste. Physical contact with cologne-wearing individuals—such as handshakes or hugs—transfers cologne residue onto his clothes and body, necessitating that he change his clothing afterward. In professional settings with prolonged exposure, such as hours-long meetings surrounded by multiple cologne-wearing people, the fragrance remains lodged in his sinuses with lasting effects; he has noticed his food tasting like cologne when he subsequently went to eat. William has also observed that cologne presents a significant environmental problem in crowded spaces. In airports particularly, the concentration of cologne becomes so thick and toxic that it unavoidably enters his sinuses and adheres persistently. Over the years, numerous people have reported to him that cologne triggers immediate migraines, causes sickness, and induces nausea in them as well, suggesting that his experience reflects a broader pattern of how fragrance affects many individuals across the population.
Anthony's approach to his own perceptual abilities reflects his broader commitment to seeing clearly rather than accepting things at face value. When shopping for organic produce, he approaches it with full awareness rather than blind trust. He explains that he cannot afford to have "blinders on" because he has to "see everything for what it is." This means recognizing that organic produce may contain "a load of copper and MSG" or "a load of nicotine," leading him to wash his organic produce when he brings it home. His ability to perceive these realities while shopping reflects his broader approach to his gift and mission—maintaining clear vision and critical awareness in all aspects of life, from the spiritual realm to the practical details of daily choices and self-care.
Personal anecdotes about friends' behaviors and choices▾
Anthony William has observed various behaviors and choices among his friends that he uses to illustrate broader points about health, intuition, and physical capability. In one instance, he witnessed a friend who sprained an ankle and became desperate about the injury, insisting that he "gotta do things, can't be held back" despite having only a hurt ankle for a month. Anthony contrasts this reaction with people suffering from chronic illnesses for years who must push through far more severe conditions, highlighting different people's tolerances for physical setbacks.
Regarding eating habits, Anthony has a friend who frequently claims that his intuition is telling him he needs pizza, particularly on Friday nights, stating "whatever, I need pizza." Anthony uses this example to demonstrate how people often confuse emotional eating or learned behavioral patterns with genuine intuitive eating, conflating cravings with true body signals.
In another memorable anecdote, Anthony witnessed a friend attempt to open a beer bottle using his teeth after seeing other people successfully rip off bottle caps this way. When the friend placed the bottle in his mouth and tried to tear off the cap, he ended up spitting several of his own teeth into his hand while the bottle cap remained firmly attached. Anthony contrasts this experience with other people he has observed who can easily rip bottle caps off "like it's a joke." He uses this striking incident to illustrate an important health principle: that teeth can appear identical on the outside but possess very different internal strength levels based on nutritional deficiencies and toxic exposures individuals have experienced.
Personal appearance, grooming, and authenticity▾
# Personal Appearance, Grooming, and Authenticity
Anthony William takes a notably understated approach to personal appearance and grooming that contrasts sharply with many of his peers in the health and wellness podcast space. While other male health podcasters invest extensively in cosmetic procedures—spending tens of thousands of dollars on veneers, implants, contact lenses, Botox, and masculine filler injections along with extensive dental work—Anthony has maintained all his natural teeth with nothing wrong with them and has deliberately chosen not to pursue cosmetic enhancements. He acknowledges that people might consider his appearance unattractive, but emphasizes that his information will help them regardless of what they think about how he looks.
His skincare philosophy reflects this commitment to authenticity. Anthony has never had a facial, undergone exfoliation processes, received a facelift, or had any professional skin treatments whatsoever. He doesn't use thick lotions on his face, doesn't maintain a typical skincare routine, and admits he doesn't wash his face as much as he probably should due to being consumed with work and not prioritizing personal hygiene. He has no dermatologist, cosmetologist, or cosmetic surgeon working on his face, and has never used fillers or undergone Botox or any cosmetic procedures. He emphasizes the truthfulness of these claims by noting it would be dangerous to state if it weren't accurate, as detractors would quickly expose him as a liar. Despite this unconventional and minimal approach, Anthony reports that his skin looks quite good for his age. People regularly ask him in person why his skin looks so good, why it's so soft, and what he puts on it, with observers at places like Cafe Gratitude commenting positively on his skin and even the softness of his hands.
Anthony attributes his skin quality not to any treatments or procedures, but rather to his dietary practices, particularly eating substantial amounts of mulberries throughout his life, along with high amounts of vitamin C and celery juice incorporated through his Medical Medium protocols. He avoids substances that damage skin like vinegar and caffeine. He's somewhat bemused by the compliments and jokes in response: "This is all my cosmetic surgery. Just kidding." Now that he's moved beyond his 30s and no longer wishes he was younger, he maintains that he's never had any skin treatments, has no filler, and has never had a cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist working on his face.
Regarding his clothing choices, Anthony demonstrates a casual attitude. He once wore a canary yellow shirt while uncertain about the color choice, but was surprised when a viewer complimented it. He joked that the bright yellow didn't help during discussions of the "flight" response in fight-or-flight, saying it made him look like a canary or toucan.
His approach to hair is similarly pragmatic and low-maintenance. Anthony has curly hair that doesn't comb right, which he describes as "a pain in the butt." He gravitates toward wearing baseball caps because they're easy and convenient—you simply throw one on and don't have to comb your hair or do anything else. It takes two seconds to put on, which appeals to him since he's already busy enough. He acknowledges this is a lazy approach but accepts it as practical given his schedule.
Beyond these personal practices, Anthony clarifies his stance on other appearance-related choices. He does not judge anyone with tattoos or those wanting to get them, and he's not taking an older generation's approach of discouraging young people from getting tattoos. Rather, he frames himself as simply providing health information people need to know. He notes that after seeing his friend's amazing polar bear tattoo, it almost made him want to get one himself, though he ultimately didn't. Additionally, he's careful to distinguish between his personal appearance and any curated image, clarifying that he doesn't do selfies or post photos of his skin, nor does he consider himself a "skin model" or use photo enhancements or photoshopping.
Personal approach to helping others and professional relationships▾
# Personal Approach to Helping Others and Professional Relationships
Anthony William's approach to helping others is fundamentally rooted in directness and prioritizing people's wellbeing over personal image. He compares his communication style to taking a car to the shop, explaining that just as a mechanic needs to know directly whether tires need replacing rather than receiving vague answers, he needs people to communicate their situations straightforwardly with him. In return, he provides direct information focused on what will make people safe and help them heal, without filtering or softening his message.
This commitment to clarity extends to his broader philosophy about his public role. William explicitly contrasts his approach with typical health influencers, emphasizing that his life is not about "getting selfies 24/7" or showcasing his body working out in the gym. Instead, he frames his work as entirely centered on helping people—understanding their pain and suffering, protecting them, getting them better, and having their back. He states that it has "never been about what's my whole life like" but rather "it's just you guys, it's just how can I protect you, how can I get you better."
This philosophy extends to his willingness to speak out on issues he views as harmful, even when it invites criticism. William questions whether he should remain silent about dangerous ingredients in products, acknowledging that he "gets crap for all this stuff." He challenges the notion that people's choices are purely their own business, particularly when it comes to vulnerable populations like two-year-olds, five-year-olds, and mothers. This reflects his belief that protecting public health, especially for children, supersedes concerns about personal backlash or the comfort of staying quiet.
William's professional relationships are guided by the same protective ethos. He works with companies like Wyman's wild blueberry juice company and has given them a full official endorsement because he doesn't want them to stop making the product. He worries about "losing these tools out there" and believes everyone needs every edge they can get for healing. His endorsements are therefore driven by genuine concern for maintaining access to products he views as beneficial to people's health and recovery.
Personal challenges, hardships, and humbling experiences▾
# Personal Challenges, Hardships, and Humbling Experiences
Anthony William has experienced numerous humbling moments throughout his life, describing himself as "an underdog being bullied my whole life." He characterizes this bullying as demonic in nature and acknowledges to others who have experienced similar mistreatment that he too understands this pain. A lifelong pattern of personal bullying and being taken advantage of has deeply affected him emotionally. These challenges began in childhood and have generated "a lot of feelings, a lot of emotions, a lot of emotional things" for him over the years.
A significant source of this mistreatment stems directly from his spiritual gift of hearing a voice from above. This ability has led to exclusion throughout his life, as others have struggled to understand or accept this fundamental aspect of his identity. William emphasizes that his journey of hearing Spirit throughout his entire life while helping people has not been easy—by his own account, there has been nothing easy about it. His work has been "filled with a lot, a lot of hardship," and he is candid about his humanity, acknowledging that he feels pain and needs his spirit restored just like everyone else. He has "slipped on his ass before," as he colorfully describes it, and it hurt.
Beyond personal bullying, Anthony has experienced systematic disrespect regarding his intellectual and spiritual contributions. People have taken advantage of him by "poaching all my info" without proper attribution, not citing him as a source, and failing to acknowledge his significant contributions to the health movement over the past 35 years. He feels his work and influence have not been recognized with the respect they deserve. According to Anthony, his contributions have been so substantial that he believes the health movement "would not be like it is today it would be literally a Barren desert" without his input and spiritual guidance. The emotional weight of these experiences—the bullying, exclusion, and lack of acknowledgment—has been absorbed by his stones, serving as repositories for these painful aspects of his life story.
William has also borne personal challenges from sharing specific health information. For decades as a messenger sharing life-changing information that has transformed health itself, he has "put up with a lot," with eggs being particularly significant. He has "taken a lot of shit because of eggs," demonstrating how controversial aspects of his teachings have become sources of personal struggle.
William has faced fragile points at multiple times in his life. During these periods of vulnerability, particularly when he was younger and at other stages of his existence, he sought ways to strengthen himself. Spirit guided him to bring garlic into his life, which he credits with making him feel less fragile and stronger during these difficult times. He also acknowledges having moments of doubt regarding his work. Once in a while, he finds himself questioning whether people should continue practices like celery juice, especially given the battles and controversy surrounding it. In these moments, he considers telling people to simply stop, allowing those who want to get sick to do so. However, he recognizes that he doesn't have it in him to think that way permanently. His commitment to saving lives outweighs these doubts, and he believes the fight is always worth it.
Anthony William has personally experienced betrayal and broken trust, which he describes as painful soul wounds that people carry with them. He shares specific instances where he has been stabbed in the back by people he knows, particularly when he said no to something they wanted from him. He acknowledges that these experiences make it difficult to trust again and create lasting wounds. However, despite these painful encounters, he maintains a philosophy of continued trust rather than allowing betrayal to harden him. He doesn't wake up the next day declaring he'll never trust a single person again. Instead, he chooses to trust again and again, keeps moving forward, and actively wants to provide others with the same healing opportunity he has given himself. Throughout his life, William has used meditations to heal the wounds he has gotten over the years, seeking to share this healing approach with others through practices like the Moon meditation.
William is also deeply affected by broader struggles with the medical system. These concerns keep him up at night, causing him to wake thinking about how to change the situation and what can be done. Spirit has guided him to put his books out and get people to learn, recognizing that this educational mission is essential to addressing systemic problems. Despite being called a healer, William is clear that he is not perfect. He is like everybody else in the world—imperfect, with his own experiences and baggage that he has had to contend with throughout his life, just like everyone else carries their own burdens. He openly acknowledges having plenty to humble him personally, though he indicates there are additional experiences he will discuss more fully at some point in the future.
Personal dreams and aspirations▾
Anthony William shares that he has dreams too - his main dream is that Spirit will go away and stop 'yapping in his ear' so he can have peace for the first time. Another dream is to take a vacation someday because he's never had one ever in his life. He mentions these while discussing how everyone has dreams and aspirations they want their liver healthy enough to support.
Personal emotional struggles and mental health challenges▾
# Personal Emotional Struggles and Mental Health Challenges
Anthony William has openly acknowledged facing significant personal emotional and mental health challenges throughout his life. He describes his overall journey as difficult, indicating that he has "stayed alive" with the specific purpose of being able to share Medical Medium information with people seeking healing. This sense of mission has been central to how he has persevered through his struggles.
Regarding depression specifically, Anthony clarified that he did not experience depression in the clinical sense until he began witnessing the prevalence of misinformation within the health field over the years. However, he distinguished this as more accurately described as sadness rather than depression—sadness about the misinformation circulating in health and wellness spaces, and sadness about what people are pushed into and forced to spend money on unnecessarily as a result.
Anthony has also experienced physical manifestations of emotional strain. He has acknowledged that his own brain "has experienced some serious emotional blows" and that his vagus nerves have "taken a hit" during certain periods, though he noted an attempt to avoid making discussions about vagus nerve impacts overly personal when sharing this information.
In addition to emotional struggles, Anthony has dealt with obsessive thought patterns, particularly during periods of intense work. He shared an experience of working late around 2 AM while becoming obsessively focused on meeting a deadline, finding himself stuck in a repetitive mental loop of "I gotta finish that deadline." To address this, he used what he calls the obsessive thoughts shifter—creating and consuming a specific beverage—which allowed him to shift his mindset away from the obsessive focus on the deadline and toward self-care, enabling him to get ready for bed and actually rest instead of continuing the compulsive work cycle.
Anthony's personal struggles have roots extending back to childhood. He explains that he hasn't had an easy life, particularly given that he has been hearing spirits since age four. As a coping mechanism, he uses sarcasm and jokes around frequently. The demands of his work have also taken a significant toll; he mentions that writing the Brain Saver books nearly killed him. Despite these challenges, he finds the struggle worthwhile when the books reach people's hands and they are able to access healing information.
Personal experience with Crohn's cases▾
Anthony shares that he has personally dealt with the worst Crohn's cases and has gotten people to avoid surgeries using simple remedies like bananas. This demonstrates his long experience treating serious digestive conditions.
Personal experience with farm equipment▾
Anthony William has personal experience driving tractors, greasing tractors, and doing maintenance on equipment. This gives him firsthand knowledge of what it means when he talks about organic farming using the same solvents, degreasers, and cleaning agents as conventional farming.
Personal experience with muscle and weight▾
Anthony shares his personal experience with how muscle mass affects weight. When he works 18 hours a day non-stop and can't do self-care like riding his bicycle or running for months, he loses a few pounds of muscle. But when he gets back to biking three times a week, the muscle comes back and he gains 5-7 pounds of healthy muscle weight back.
Personal experience with someone who felt their life didn't matter▾
Anthony shares a powerful personal story: 'I had someone tell me years ago, he said, you know, my life doesn't even matter. It doesn't even matter. I don't even care anymore. I said, you know, I do. I said, I care. And it matters to me. Your life matters to me.' The person responded that this changed their life, and they started applying the information and recovered from multiple sclerosis. Anthony notes 'they're still better today and here now because of it. And this was years ago, years ago, years ago.'
Personal experience with vegan treats▾
Anthony mentions being on a 'vegan cookie kick lately and chips' that are gluten free and GMO free, checking ingredient lists and finding oils like canola oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil in products he was enjoying. He talks about how these taste really good and he could 'live off of these' while demonstrating the reality of how these oils are in many vegan health products.
Personal experiences with chemtrails▾
# Anthony William's Personal Experiences with Chemtrails
Anthony William has described multiple personal encounters with chemtrails over several years, along with the professional consequences of speaking publicly about the topic. Approximately five to six years before speaking about these experiences, he released a podcast episode dedicated to chemtrails. This episode resulted in significant censorship and backlash. William reported being "slammed" for the podcast, stating that his episode faced severe suppression that he attributed to deliberate action from powerful institutional forces. He described the impact as coming "so hard" and affecting him "in so many ways," suggesting the professional toll extended beyond simple content moderation.
Beyond the podcast incident, William has had direct personal observations of chemtrails in various contexts. While traveling on commercial airline flights, he has watched chemtrails from a window seat as his plane descended, observing one instance where the aircraft went directly into a chemtrail formation situated at approximately 20,000 feet altitude.
William has also reflected on the experience of witnessing chemtrails from the ground. He describes a particularly striking moment of irony: while disposing of recyclables at a garbage bin, he looked up at the sky and observed between 30 to 40 chemtrails drifting across it simultaneously. The experience troubled him deeply because of his knowledge regarding what these chemtrails contain—uncertainties about whether the toxic chemicals originated from 20 or 60 years prior, and questions about whether the substances are pesticide or herbicide byproducts. He characterizes this juxtaposition as a "sick joke" being perpetrated on people attempting to be environmentally conscious.
More recently, William documented a particularly clear sighting of a chemtrail formation. He observed what he describes as a perfect X formation in the sky, noting that it was exceptionally distinct and symmetrical—"equal on each side." William captured both a photograph and video of this X formation on his phone, stating his intention to share the images publicly.
Personal experiences with chronic illness, healing, and alternative medicine▾
# Anthony William: Personal Experiences with Chronic Illness, Healing, and Alternative Medicine
Anthony William's personal experience with chronic illness has deeply shaped both his individual healing journey and his life's work. He carries vivid memories of periods when he struggled with significant health challenges, experiencing pain and suffering on a daily basis. Despite these difficulties, he maintains a steadfast conviction about his recovery, expressing confidence that he will return to his former state of wellness, regardless of the timeline. He uses the metaphor of an old ship floating in the distance—a vessel carrying all the records of his past pain and suffering—to describe his relationship with illness as something he will eventually move beyond and leave behind.
This personal struggle with chronic illness has informed William's approach throughout his life's work. Having worked with chronically ill individuals since childhood, he has developed a philosophy centered on giving rather than taking from the community he serves. Recognizing that people dealing with chronic illness already carry significant burdens, William consciously avoids asking things of them. Instead, he focuses on providing support and assistance, motivated by a desire to give as much as he can rather than add to the demands placed on those who are already managing so much.
Beyond his personal health journey, William has positioned himself as a knowledgeable observer of both alternative medicine history and natural health practices. Regarding alternative medicine specifically, he has claimed to possess extensive insider knowledge about the field's history, suggesting that the full scope of what he knows would be shocking to most people. He has indicated that if people were to sit down with him for dinner at his house and hear the details of his knowledge, they would find the information mind-blowing. He has alluded to knowing disturbing facts about various practitioners and authors within the alternative health world, though he has not publicly detailed these claims extensively.
William has taken a personal advocacy stance on specific health and nutrition issues. He has been vocal for years about the issue of MSG being hidden in products labeled with "natural flavors," characterizing this practice as deceptive marketing that he refers to as "the switcheroo, the great bait and switch, the old bamboozle."
William has also developed and demonstrated distinctive practical techniques related to natural remedies. He has described a unique method for filleting aloe vera using an upward-facing spoon to separate the gel from the skin. He claims that despite his extensive experience, he has never encountered anyone else using this particular technique, asserting that it is superior to other methods he has observed, calling it "the best way by far to do it."
In his observations about health conditions and popular alternative medicine beliefs, William has drawn on specific examples from his experience. He describes knowing a man who has multiple bleeding ulcers but maintains complete mental clarity with no brain fog. According to William, this person can "outwit you like one, two, three" and has demonstrated the ability to outwit others. William uses this example to challenge conventional alternative medicine thinking, arguing that severe gut problems do not necessarily cause brain fog, contrary to popular beliefs in the alternative health community.
Personal experiences with emotional and energetic healing supplements▾
# Anthony William's Personal Experiences with Emotional and Energetic Healing Supplements
Anthony William has been candid about his personal use of various healing supplements to manage the emotional and energetic demands of his work and life. He describes drawing on these tools regularly as part of his own wellness practice, particularly in response to the challenges that come with his gift and his mission to help people.
William has found the Anger Shifter to be especially valuable during times of frustration, particularly when engaged in detailed work like writing down brain information from Spirit. He references getting frustrated during these processes and feeling pissed off at himself periodically, finding the Anger Shifter satisfying for those moments. Throughout one live session, he expressed that he really needed the supplement that day and would love to have it available.
His experience with the Wisdom and Intuition Stabilizer brain shot has been notably impactful. William describes noticing funny feelings in his arms and chest right away upon taking it, but notes that the strongest effects hit him between 5-10 minutes after consumption, with the effects growing stronger each minute as it 'starts coming over me.' When he takes multiple shots, they compound on each other, creating what he calls 'a whole other ride.' He describes feeling all kinds of funny feelings running through his body and getting to his brain, characterizing it as an incredible sensation that he's never experienced from anything else quite like these brain shots.
William also relies on the Negative Energy Exposure Shot, which he takes before difficult phone calls and situations that are what he describes as 'no fun.' He has spoken about dealing with 'a lot of stuff out there' and experiencing challenging weeks with 'a lot of pushback, a lot of throwback when you're healing people in the world.' During one instance when he was particularly concerned about negative energy exposure, he expressed nervousness about what negative energy he might have collected and excitement about seeing it leave his system, planning to take the shot three times that day.
Beyond supplements, William acknowledges that his healing journey involves other dimensions of emotional processing. He experiences bad dreams periodically, which he understands as part of his own healing process. He explains, 'I get bad dreams. I do some healing. I do some healing. I get some bad dreams here and there. I've seen so much in my life and I've been through so much in my life and with this gift and everything else, that yeah, I have some bad dreams. But that's how you let things loose and let things out and you heal in different ways.' He describes having been through a lot in his life, yet he maintains a caring, loving heart and a desire to help people, illustrating through his own experience how someone can have a tattered soul but still possess a warm, loving heart.
Personal experiences with pregnancy, motherhood, and early nutrition▾
# Personal Experiences with Pregnancy, Motherhood, and Early Nutrition
Anthony William acknowledges a significant personal limitation in his work around pregnancy and motherhood: he has never been pregnant himself. He emphasizes that because of this, he cannot claim to completely understand pregnancy from direct personal experience. However, he notes that he understands pregnancy-related matters extensively through other means, primarily attributing this knowledge to spiritual insight rather than lived bodily experience.
Despite this personal boundary, William has developed substantial understanding about the nutritional needs during pregnancy. He discovered that one of the greatest mistakes mothers can make is lowering carbohydrates during pregnancy. His research identified that carbohydrates consumed by the mother during pregnancy play a critical role in fetal development: the initial carbohydrate storage from maternal nutrition becomes the foundation of brain tissue and creates essential reserves that allow the baby's brain to grow and develop properly. When a mother goes carb-free during pregnancy, he found that the baby's brain suffers as a result.
William also discusses the biological and spiritual transmission that occurs at birth between mother and child. He describes how at the moment of birth, a mother's liver sends a message to her newborn's liver, signaling that the baby's liver can now take care of itself independently. He characterizes this as ancient knowledge that has been ingrained in human beings for thousands of years—a liver-to-liver communication of crucial life information passed from mothers to their children, establishing that the liver must learn to fend for itself without maternal support.
Personal food preferences and aversions▾
Anthony William has specific food aversions that shape his personal eating habits, though he distinguishes between his own preferences and the nutritional information he provides to others. He has never consumed a pulled pork sandwich in his entire life. Whenever he encounters someone eating one or sees chefs preparing them on social media, his immediate association is with pancreatitis. As he explains, "every time I see somebody playing with pork or eating a pulled pork sandwich or something like that all I think of is pancreatitis it's like pulled pork pancreatitis pulled pork sandwiches pancreatitis." He is careful to clarify that he does not shame or judge people who eat pulled pork sandwiches; rather, he simply cannot bring himself to eat them personally due to this strong mental connection.
William is also not a major pineapple enthusiast himself. However, this personal aversion did not prevent him from ensuring comprehensive information about pineapple's healing properties was included in his Life-Changing Foods book. He made the distinction clear that just because he personally doesn't love pineapple doesn't mean the healing information wouldn't be thoroughly documented for those who might benefit from it. This reflects his approach of separating his own food preferences from his commitment to providing complete nutritional and healing guidance to others.
Personal food sensitivity approach▾
Anthony mentions he had 'two of those little tomatoes' during what appears to be a meal scenario, questioning whether he feels good and wondering if that's why he's been bloating. He talks about having a reaction and mentions that when he eats onion rings, he feels fine - they're deep-fried but fried food doesn't seem to bother him. He also mentions eating fried shrimp with cocktail sauce, not knowing what's in it but not reacting to things like that, while still thinking he's having a problem with the tomato.
Personal friend Chelsea Field attending event▾
When Chelsea Field comments that she'll be at the event, Anthony responds with clear personal affection: 'Chelsea Field wow Chelsea Field I hope they have extra staff too yes they do Chelsea dear dear dear friend of mine who I call Family Chelsea is going to be there uh-huh I'm excited Chelsea Fields is going to be there.' He refers to her as 'dear dear dear friend of mine who I call Family.'
Personal friends with health struggles▾
Anthony William mentions having friends who tell him regularly 'I'm done with doctors.' He describes having 'a friend that tells me that every day - I'm done with doctors my friend would tell me' and mentions 'another person I know' who goes through the same thing. He explains that when people have symptoms for too long, they eventually say they need to heal themselves and need to find the tools and answers to do it.
Personal guilt and wine vineyard joke▾
Anthony William jokingly said his guilt comes from buying a wine vineyard for four billion dollars with doctor friends, where each glass of wine costs $100,000. This was clearly a humorous fabrication to illustrate the guilt and shame shifter discussion.
Personal hobbies and interests▾
Anthony mentions that he tries to have passions and get interested in different things just like everyone else. When he was young, he would get into things like model planes and model airplanes, learning about all the different kinds of airplanes. He relates to how people can wake up one morning, get a hobby, and become an expert at something they're passionate about, comparing this to how his friend became a sports expert who can rattle off batting averages and team strategies.
Personal injury experiences and resilience▾
Anthony William has developed a nuanced understanding of personal resilience through both direct physical injuries and an extraordinary commitment to helping others overcome chronic health challenges. His perspective on injury and recovery has been shaped by multiple experiences that illustrate how common and unpredictable physical harm can be in everyday life.
William has experienced several routine injuries that serve as reminders of human vulnerability. Years ago, he slipped on icy boards while walking outside, falling hard on his buttocks in a way that caused pain persisting for weeks before eventually healing completely. He has also repeatedly banged his head on car door jambs while getting in and out of vehicles—moments of sudden impact that produce immediate regret and disorientation, describing the experience as the kind of common head injury that can happen to anyone during ordinary activities. Through these personal experiences, he uses himself as an example of how injury is an inescapable part of human existence.
Beyond his own physical injuries, William has developed a philosophy about healing grounded in both psychological resilience and practical support. He counseled someone who had suffered from injuries for 15 years and had lost all hope of recovery. Rather than accepting this hopelessness, William instructed them to tell their body three times a day that it would heal, even without initial belief in the practice. After just two weeks of this affirmation work, combined with B12 and other supplemental support, the person experienced less pain for the first time in 15 years. This catalyzed genuine healing and authentic faith in recovery, demonstrating William's conviction that psychological commitment to healing can trigger physical transformation.
William's own resilience has been forged through an extraordinary work schedule sustained for approximately 20 years. He worked seven days a week with virtually no breaks, beginning early in the morning—sometimes at 5 or 6 AM, sometimes as late as 7 AM—and continuing until midnight without interruption. During stretches of this period, he went 3 to 6 years without taking Christmas off or securing even a half day off. In other intervals, he managed only a half day off every 2 to 5 years, and he recalls a five-year period where he took no days off whatsoever—an experience he remembers discussing with his parents. He worked with rooms full of people resembling a doctor's waiting room but operating continuously throughout each day, helping more people than perhaps anyone else with a career of his length.
For the entire duration of this intensive work period, William performed this work without compensation until the physical and financial toll became unsustainable. The lack of payment meant he struggled to afford basic necessities—he could not afford food, rent, or maintain a car. The strain became so severe that he nearly died from it. He acknowledges that he no longer maintains that schedule because doing so would probably kill him now. However, rather than viewing those 20 years as merely sacrifice, William recognizes that this extreme period provided invaluable experience in understanding how environmental factors affect healing. The intensive exposure to countless different people and their conditions, combined with his own physical and financial hardship, deepened his comprehension of the complex dynamics between lifestyle, environment, and the body's capacity to heal.

Personal juicer experiences and testing history▾
# Anthony William's Personal Juicer Experiences and Testing History
Anthony William's journey with juicing equipment spans decades of personal experimentation and frustration with inferior machines. Before developing his endorsed juicer models, he had to use what he describes as "all the crappy juicers like everybody else," destroying and annihilating every brand of juicer available on the market. These machines could not hold up to the intense daily juicing required within the Medical Medium community, where people juice "like no one has ever juiced"—not just once a day or for a week, but constantly and all day long. He burned through multiple juicers during this period, and the financial cost of juicing with inferior machines was "insane" due to their inefficiency and frequent breakdowns.
During his testing period, Anthony experienced numerous frustrating encounters at friends' houses that illustrated the limitations of standard juicers. At one friend's house, he watched them use a juicer with metal gears that was grinding the celery. When Anthony inquired how long they'd owned it, they revealed it was three years old, prompting him to explain how the metal-on-metal grinding was creating metal particles in the juice—a concern he compared to car brakes wearing down over time. In another instance with a different friend, Anthony observed someone repeatedly putting celery pulp back into their "crappy juicer" attempting to extract more juice. His friend put the pulp back in approximately 100 times while Anthony watched, repeatedly telling them the pulp was still wet. After watching this futile process over and over, Anthony finally said, "you know it's still wet right?"—a demonstration of how inferior juicers simply don't extract juice properly. This pattern repeated at yet another friend's house, where a different juicer was spitting out wet pulp that became wet mush. His friend had to repeatedly put the pulp back in the machine, but it didn't yield much more juice and the output remained sloppy and wet. The machine fundamentally lacked the design to actually squeeze the juice out, and his friend eventually gave up because the results were inadequate.
Despite buying large quantities of celery in attempts to save money, Anthony found that most juicers on the market didn't actually save him money at all. This changed when he obtained the MM-900 HDS juicer, which began paying for itself by extracting more juice from the same amount of celery. The financial benefits continued to compound—the juicer has paid for itself approximately a dozen times over due to the money saved on celery purchases alone. He emphasizes that it has cut his celery bill in half and states he could have bought 50 juicers with the money saved. Anthony stresses that this must specifically be the MM-900 HDS model, not another Omega juicer, as the distinction is important.
Anthony describes the MM-900 HDS as his favorite juicer he's ever used, and he has been working with the company on its development. He is emphatic that it is the only juicer that actually pays for itself. The MM-900 HDS and the MM-1500 represent a different philosophy than typical juicer endorsements. Anthony explains that he could have spent 30 years being "the juicer guy," but that wasn't meaningful enough to him. These models were designed as projects of love specifically to help people with chronic illness who don't have a lot of money. Most chronically ill people are spending money on doctors and many can't work, making financial strain a major concern. Rather than promoting "fancy" juicers pushed by influencers who "think everybody's rich," Anthony designed juicers that would save money while healing—machines that extract more juice and pay for themselves. The philosophy behind these endorsements was fundamentally about helping the person struggling financially while they work toward healing.
Personal nervousness about upcoming speaking engagement▾
Anthony reveals he's getting nervous about the upcoming Culver City event because he will be speaking: 'I'm getting nervous now I am because speaking at this Awan event I'm speaking so I'm getting nervous now I'm speaking.' He mentions this is unusual for him, asking 'when have I done that' about speaking at events, and that he 'just signed up last minute' to speak.
Personal observation about health influencers▾
Anthony William shares a story about a friend who visited another health influencer's house after not seeing them for a while. When his friend walked into this health influencer's house, they 'hit like a brick wall of just scented candles and all of that and it was so toxic.' This illustrates his point about how many people teaching health are unknowingly using toxic products like scented candles while promoting wellness, creating contradictions in their health messaging.
Personal observation and recycling irony▾
Anthony describes the irony of looking up at multiple chemtrails in the sky while taking recyclables to the garbage bin. He says 'I'm looking at all the chemtrails in the sky while I'm trying to recycle stuff. It's a tough one to swallow, right?' He wonders about the toxic contents: 'what brew is that? Is that from 20 years ago? Is that from 60 years ago? What kind of toxic crap is that coming down? Is it a pesticide byproduct? Is it an herbicide byproduct?' He can often see 30-40 chemtrails drifting in the sky at once.
Personal office chair and learning process▾
Anthony mentions sitting in his office chair 'the one I burned a hole in the seat cushion was just basically torn to shreds' while receiving information from Spirit. He also reveals that as a 'mere human' he has to read and learn from his own books repeatedly: 'I have to school myself in reading them over and over again' because there's so much information to digest.
Personal passion about misinformation▾
Anthony acknowledges getting 'more annoying lately' and being 'more sarcastic' because he's 'watching so-called experts now' spread misinformation. He says 'I've been really annoying lately and I know that' and explains it's because he's been 'more laid back' before but now sees 'health professionals or medical experts or doctors coming out of the woodwork to try to get their name on something and hang their hat on something and they're just running around with the stupidest false information ever.' He gets particularly upset about people trying to claim celery juice as their own discovery.
Personal perspective on seeking health information▾
Anthony William explains that if he didn't have his gift and was just someone suffering with mystery illness, spending thousands of dollars seeking answers and being burned by contaminated information, he would absolutely want to hear free and clear information that wasn't attached to junk science. He says he'd be 'on it' and would listen because he'd understand what it's like to suffer and know that he wanted to hear truth instead of 'the garbage that's out there that's over and over again in the experts books of today that are unbelievable, just recycled junk over and over again.'
Personal philosophy, values, and spiritual foundation▾
# Anthony William: Personal Philosophy, Values, and Spiritual Foundation
Anthony William's foundational philosophy is built upon a commitment to service over self-promotion. This manifests most visibly in his deliberate approach to his social media presence and content creation. On his Facebook and Instagram accounts, he intentionally avoids the typical influencer model of constant personal content, stating that visitors will not see pictures of him repeatedly or content focused on his own activities. Instead, he directs the focus toward his audience members—featuring people and their stories, people healing and getting better, people experiencing life changes, people making recipes, and people taking care of themselves. He has consistently emphasized this philosophy by repeating "This is about you, it's not about me" over the course of years. This audience-centric approach extends even to imagery on his blog. While acknowledging there is a prominent picture of him holding celery juice on the blog, he clarifies that this is not intended as self-promotion or a showcase of his own practices. Rather, he wants to inspire his audience to do the celery juice themselves, noting that he practices this at home regardless, so there is no need for his audience to witness his personal consumption of it on the blog.
When his first book Medical Medium was being published, someone told him "you're going to be an author now, it's all about you." Anthony responded decisively that it's not about him at all—it's about everybody else getting better. He stated, "I'm changing the rules. It's not going to be about me in my life. I'm changing the rules. It's about everybody else for real." This commitment to a mission centered entirely on healing others rather than personal recognition or gain has remained unwavering throughout his career.
At the emotional core of this mission is profound empathy for those suffering. He wakes up in the morning thinking about people who are struggling and goes to bed thinking about it. He tells his family members how it breaks his heart all the time. He thinks about people who feel hopeless, have no answers, are struggling, have been through a lot, and those who feel no one can relate to the hurt they have in their life. This empathy fuels his work on a daily basis. Despite his commitment, Anthony sometimes wakes up feeling like a failure because he feels like he can't save the world all at once and is only reaching so many people. However, he finds encouragement in knowing that listeners are helping by taking the information further and helping others—their family members and loved ones. This multiplier effect makes him feel like the reach is getting bigger and better, alleviating some of his sense of inadequacy. His personal commitment is unwavering and absolute. One morning, he woke up and told Spirit, "I'm still in the game. I'm still here and I'm not giving up until everybody has what they need, until we do a million shows and do what we got to do and get the information in books because I want you guys better. I'm in the game. I'm not backing down. I'm not leaving. I'm staying in it. Let's get everybody better." This determination defines his legacy: he needs people to heal, as many people as can heal until he can't be here anymore on this planet. When he's leaving this place and on his last breath, he's going to say he did everything he could to get that many people healed. Through his books and ongoing work, he intends to continue healing people long after he's gone.
Anthony's commitment to authenticity shapes both his approach to content production and his broader spiritual and ethical framework. He prefers creating everything live and unedited, deliberately distinguishing his approach from the prevalent YouTube practice of heavily edited content where sentences are individually edited together. He believes in showing his genuine, unfiltered self, including mistakes. He cites examples such as forgetting to place a cup under the juicer or remembering to plug in equipment, demonstrating his willingness to let these human moments remain part of his live content rather than being removed through post-production editing.
This commitment to authenticity extends to his approach to honesty and integrity. Anthony William's approach to honesty centers on his willingness to admit mistakes directly and without equivocation. He states that if he were wrong about something, he would readily say "I screwed up, I'm wrong." However, he considers himself fortunate in this regard because he does not rely on his own judgment as his ultimate authority. Instead, his source of information is not a human being prone to error, but rather a non-human source that has guided him since he was four years old. This distinction is fundamental to how he frames his relationship with truthfulness—his integrity is protected not by personal infallibility but by his reliance on a source he believes to be inherently reliable.
Regarding spirituality and health practices, Anthony emphasizes the importance of genuine authenticity over performative spirituality. He expresses frustration with people who claim to embody spiritual values while simultaneously engaging in unhealthy practices. For Anthony, true spirituality is inseparable from honesty about one's actual condition. Rather than pretending to have everything figured out or maintaining a facade of perfect health and wellness, he advocates for honest acknowledgment of genuine health struggles. This distinction between "real truth" and "fake truth" is central to his worldview—spirituality, in his estimation, requires the integrity to admit what is actually happening in one's life rather than presenting an idealized or false version of reality.
Regarding broader spiritual awareness, Anthony takes a measured and practical approach. He does not believe in dwelling on or constantly contemplating demonic forces, stating plainly: "I don't think about demons every day. You don't have to think about demons ever." His perspective suggests that while demonic forces could theoretically be real—comparable to how most people believe in ghosts and aliens—this belief need not dominate one's consciousness or daily mental life. He emphasizes that no one should be preoccupied with thinking about demons constantly. Instead, spiritual awareness, in his view, is best maintained as a quiet background acknowledgment rather than an anxious preoccupation, allowing people to live their lives without being consumed by fear or fixation on dark spiritual entities.
Personal radiation exposure from friend▾
Anthony shared a recent personal experience of radiation exposure. A friend of his had just gotten off a plane and come out of the airport, having gone through airport security. When Anthony hugged his friend, who was saturated with radiation from the flight and airport scanners, he received radiation exposure himself. He was aware of the exposure at the time and noted it, which is why he was pleased about taking a radiation exposure shot to address it.
Personal reaction to podcast episodes▾
Anthony William shares that he gets choked up at the end of every podcast episode when listening back to them. Specifically, when he spoke about 'the boat' at the beginning of the brain fog episode, he felt it during recording, but when he re-listened to the episode after recording, he actually cried and got choked up right in the middle of it.
Personal reaction when making hummus for others▾
When Anthony makes hummus in front of people during holidays, they get 'blown away' and say things like 'Medical Medium, you're at it again, you're doing the coolest thing.' He enjoys the amazed reactions people have to his homemade versions.
Personal sacrifice and the cost of being a messenger▾
Anthony William characterizes himself as a messenger rather than an originator of knowledge, emphasizing that he received the information he shares from above and compiled it into his published works. He describes himself as "just like you guys," positioning himself as relatable despite his role as a conduit for this information. William expresses deep honor in serving as the messenger who delivers this guidance to others, acknowledging that this calling has come with significant personal cost. He notes this sacrifice is ongoing, stating he has "paid [a price] along the way and still do," yet remains committed to his mission regardless of these personal costs.
William's work has been deeply immersed in medical information and healing for an extended period. He describes being "buried buried buried deep in right up to my neck" in medical work, focusing on "deep in the medical save lives. Deep in the medical information true true reasons why someone's chronically sick... getting people out of sickness and poor health and chronic illness and getting them to heal and bring them back rising out of the ashes." While he has long engaged with Spirit of Compassion about various spiritual matters, including broader topics like Mars and planetary concerns, his spiritual understanding expanded significantly through collaborative work on the Angels, Demons and Spiritual Tools audio project, which opened his "eyes wider now."
Regarding his qualifications to assess his own work, William argues that because he received the information directly from above, he is equally positioned as anyone else to judge the books. He expresses confidence in the lasting impact of his publications, promising they will "go down in history as the greatest health books of all time."
William frequently uses the phrases "I am at your disposal" and "At Your Service" when engaging with people during live appearances, framing his role as one of availability and service. Interestingly, he has acknowledged that this particular phrasing makes him laugh, though he cannot explain why this response occurs. However, his commitment to this service role comes with challenges. William mentions that he gets gaslit all the time, especially by influencers on social media, describing how they "douse me with gasoline and light the match" in reference to the intensity of gaslighting he experiences.
Personal sacrifice, dedication, and the cost of the healing mission▾
Anthony William describes his commitment to his healing mission as a lifestyle without boundaries or conventional work-life balance. He does not "clock out" at 5 PM like a doctor who might then go play tennis or enjoy a boat with a martini. Instead, his work continues all day and all night, with his thoughts turning to people's healing even right before he goes to bed. He reflects on individuals like Mark who regained his memory through the heavy metal detox smoothie, thinking about every person getting something back. This continuous mental engagement with his work's impact matters deeply to him, distinguishing his approach from those who maintain traditional separation between professional and personal time.
The physical and mental toll of his mission manifests most acutely in his writing process. While writing Life Changing Foods, Anthony felt he was "literally basically going to stroke out" from the intensity of the work. He was channeling massive amounts of information from Spirit about over 50 fruits and vegetables—information he emphasizes has never been taught or learned anywhere else. Despite describing the writing process as going "through hell and back," he considers it "so worth it" to get the healing information into people's hands. His commitment extends to willingly operating at the edge of his physical limits, saying he doesn't care if he's "on the edge of stroking out" as long as he can get the information from Spirit into his books.
The personal sacrifices required for his life's work go beyond the writing itself. Anthony has burned holes in his chairs and lost countless hours of sleep to meet deadlines for the Medical Medium books, demonstrating a level of commitment that far exceeds how other health books are hastily assembled. These physical manifestations of his dedication illustrate the intensity at which he works. Currently, he exists in a perpetual state of stress and intensive work on writing books, with his dream being to "actually take one day off writing the books and actually watch a funny show or something or watch a funny movie. Maybe I'll be able to do it 10 years from now." This projection suggests he sees no immediate relief from his demanding schedule, indicating an indefinite commitment to the work ahead.
Notably, Anthony emphasizes that his dedication transcends personal preference or passion for the subject matter itself. He reflects that if he were only interested in painting and creating art or landscapes, it would not matter—he would still be compelled to pursue his healing mission. This commitment exists independent of his own desires, driven instead by what he describes as Spirit of compassion. Despite this potential conflict between his personal interests and his calling, he approaches the work "with a smile" and positions himself as fundamentally "at your service." This perspective reframes his sacrifice not as resentment toward an unwanted burden, but as an acceptance of a higher purpose that supersedes individual preference.
Furthermore, Anthony has turned down "The Anthony Williams Show" on mainstream television dozens of times, prioritizing the delivery of accurate health information over personal stardom. His life's work is fundamentally about elevating people above the "sea of confusion" of health fads and trends, enabling them to regain their health on their own terms. This refusal of mainstream opportunities reflects his core values: that the mission of getting genuine healing information to people supersedes personal recognition or conventional success. His dedication is ultimately framed not as a burden he resents, but as a purpose he considers worth the physical, mental, and temporal costs it demands.
Personal safety concerns▾
Anthony makes a serious statement: 'If something happens to me guys... just saying... I didn't kill myself or anything like that... if we lose me and they say it was an accident, it wasn't an accident.' This suggests he has concerns about potential threats to his safety due to his work.
Personal security concerns▾
Anthony admits to having security protection: 'people you know look I'll say something people don't know I I have security Yeah I'm not surprised I have security I do Makes a lot I mean I'm just gonna say it now but yeah I do Cuz the way that you are so honest on and off a mic I can imagine I got security in here right now'
Personal stories illustrating health conditions through friends' experiences▾
# Anthony William's Personal Stories Illustrating Health Conditions Through Friends' Experiences
Anthony William frequently draws upon his personal relationships to illustrate broader principles about health conditions and their causes. These anecdotes reveal recurring themes about misconceptions regarding illness causation, the effects of specific substances on the body, and the disconnect between beliefs about health and actual physiological outcomes.
One recurring theme in Anthony's conversations involves the blame people place on themselves for their illnesses. He shares a conversation with someone he hadn't talked to in years who reached out explaining they had been told they were "creating their sickness." During this same conversation, the person mentioned taking their dog, Poopoo, to the vet because the dog was sick. Anthony pointed out the absurdity of this situation by asking whether they had also told the dog it was creating its illness. The person's response—"Poopoo would never do that"—highlighted how people apply different standards to themselves versus animals, blaming themselves for manifesting illness while acknowledging that animals cannot be responsible for their own sicknesses in the same way.
Anthony's experiences with friends have also illustrated the physical consequences of specific exposures and substances. He describes a friend who underwent laser removal of a tattoo and subsequently became very sick. When the friend questioned why they were experiencing such severe illness, Anthony explained that the laser removal process had dumped metal directly into their bloodstream at a rapid rate, and this metal was traveling to their brain and liver, causing the symptoms they were experiencing.
Another personal story involves a friend with fibroids who sought Anthony's guidance. Her doctor had expressed concern when she stopped eating eggs, believing she needed the egg protein for nutritional purposes. Anthony informed her that eggs actually feed fibroids, and when she shared this information with her doctor, the physician came to understand that fibroids consume byproducts from eggs and actively draw them up through their blood vessels in order to grow. When Anthony checked in with his friend recently, she reported that her doctor was amazed by the improvement she had experienced since doing celery juice and avoiding eggs, and she had been able to avoid surgery altogether.
Anthony also describes a friend who deliberately attempts to expose himself to germs and bacteria under the belief that such exposure will make him stronger. This friend engages in behaviors like licking packages that have arrived from delivery trucks and licking his hands after touching packages, while making comments such as "lots of bugs, lots of germs, hey maybe I'll catch COVID" and "tastes good, yum." Anthony notes that this friend appears to be deliberately trying to get a reaction from him by engaging in these behaviors. However, despite this intentional exposure strategy, the same friend regularly asks Anthony every other month or year what supplements he should take because he is experiencing pain and illness. Anthony has explained to him that catching the flu and deliberately collecting germs actually breaks down the body's system and weakens rather than strengthens it, yet the friend continues to operate under the belief that exposure to germs will make him stronger.
Personal stress eating experiences▾
Anthony William shares that he has personally experienced stress eating throughout his years of helping people. He describes being under tremendous stress while hearing Spirit and helping people in various offices since childhood. During these stressful times, he would think 'I'm going to eat that right now. My brain needs that fuel. I'm going to eat it.' He acknowledges that he didn't always make good food choices during stress, saying 'I sort of came to a bad choice of food' but explains this as his brain needing fuel during high-stress situations.
Personal struggle with compassion▾
Anthony William openly admits he doesn't have enough compassion and that he needs to work on it constantly. He says he tries and works on it with everything Spirit has given him, and pats himself on the back when he can. He emphasizes that just because he gets information about compassion from Spirit doesn't mean he's mastered it - he's learning too and needs doses of Spirit's information about compassion just like everyone else. He acknowledges he can use more self-compassion for himself.
Personal tea drinking during webinar▾
Anthony mentions having his herbal tea during the webinar and tells listeners they can have their tea too since they'll be going deeper into the material and he might get a dry throat from talking so much. Later he specifies he's drinking a mix of peppermint and lemon balm tea, saying 'It's very good, very good.'
Personal travel practices▾
Anthony throws out his luggage and backpacks after every trip because they become 'radiation collectors' from airport security scanning. He tries to balance this expense in his personal budget, finding it expensive and annoying but necessary to avoid ongoing radiation exposure in his home.
Philosophy of Free Information and Anti-Monetization▾
# Anthony William's Philosophy of Free Information and Anti-Monetization
Anthony William has maintained a consistent and deliberate commitment to providing health information freely, refusing numerous opportunities to monetize his platform despite significant financial pressure and industry criticism. This philosophy stems from a fundamental belief that the distribution of life-saving information should not be constrained by profit motives or financial barriers.
Throughout his career, Anthony has been approached repeatedly by marketing professionals, spiritual gurus, and business advisors encouraging him to capitalize on his popularity and influence. These advisors have suggested he could generate hundreds of millions of dollars by selling supplements, charging $1,000 to $3,000 for courses and programs, hosting exclusive $3,000 private cleanse events (potentially reaching 20,000 to 50,000 paid attendees), or implementing subscription paywalls and pay-to-access firewalls on his website and content platforms. Marketing professionals have specifically argued that people only appreciate information they pay for, and that charging expensive fees is necessary to attract a serious audience. Despite these persistent recommendations, Anthony has consistently refused, stating bluntly: "Don't insult my people." He believes his community appreciates valuable free information and does not need to be charged hundreds or thousands of dollars to recognize its worth, distinguishing them from "other people out there in the world that need that for some reason."
Anthony's reasoning is rooted in the conviction that selling products and charging for programs has nothing to do with people actually getting better. He prioritizes sleeping at night knowing that people are getting the information and help they need without being derailed by greed. His commitment extends to his website, which he funds entirely out of his own pocket with no subscription paywalls, pay firewalls, or advertisements—a practice he has maintained for six years. Any money he makes goes directly back into providing free information and free website content. He has even joked darkly about the personal financial consequences of his generosity, suggesting he will probably "end up on the side of a river in a haystack in a hay bed with no shoes on freezing and hypothermia with no roof over my head because everything's been free for six years now," illustrating the pocket lint he displays as evidence of his financial situation.
Anthony has chosen to distribute information through more affordable and accessible channels rather than expensive proprietary programs. He publishes books as a strategy to spread information far and wide into people's hands, explicitly telling people they can obtain his books for free from libraries if they cannot afford the $16.99 retail price. When asked why he does not employ certain monetized marketing strategies or move his programs to exclusive paid platforms, he refuses on principle, emphasizing that the information must remain freely available. He contrasts his approach with others in the wellness and spiritual space, stating emphatically: "We're not a cult here."
This refusal to monetize has come with social and professional costs. Anthony reports being "ostracized" and "beaten" by critics who call him a "dumb ass" for not running advertisements in front of his podcasts and YouTube videos, not charging for courses, and not putting up paywalls on medicalmedium.com. He faces criticism from what he describes as "big bad wolves"—presumably larger commercial entities in the health industry—for his unwillingness to implement these revenue-generating strategies despite millions of people accessing his free website content. The pressure to conform to industry-standard monetization practices has been relentless, yet he remains unmoved by financial incentives or social pressure, maintaining his core conviction that healing information must be accessible to everyone regardless of their ability to pay.
Philosophy on helping people▾
Anthony William mentioned that someone in YouTube comments said he's 'not a people pleaser' and he agreed with that assessment. He said 'it's not about people pleasing, it's about life saving.' His focus is on making sure people have what they need so they don't get in trouble down the road with their conditions and have every opportunity to heal.
Physical and sensory effects of spiritual work and psychic readings▾
# Anthony William: Physical and Sensory Effects of Spiritual Work and Psychic Readings
Anthony William experiences profound and continuous physical effects from his involuntary psychic abilities, which operate constantly and cannot be controlled or shut off. Unlike other mediums who can selectively access their gifts, Anthony receives readings automatically whenever he is around people, creating significant challenges in his daily life and professional work.
The most distinctive physical manifestation of his abilities is a condition he describes as "snow blindness," which occurs when Spirit of Compassion transmits information to him through an intensely loud voice accompanied by vivid visual information. During these transmissions, Anthony sees detailed images of people's internal organs—their livers, pancreases, intestinal tracts, brains, and bloodstreams—as well as viruses and other health conditions present in their bodies. Spirit of Compassion sends down a bright white light as part of this process, which is extremely blinding and forces him to squint his eyes involuntarily. This white light makes it difficult for him to see clearly in the moment, as his vision becomes obscured by the spiritual information flooding in. During light blast work specifically, the experience becomes even more severe; he goes completely blind during the process and feels intensely fatigued afterward, describing the sensation as leaving him "shot" or very tired. Despite the significant toll on his energy and health, he maintains a strong commitment to the practice, having woken the morning after his first experience wanting to "do it again" and determined to conduct more light blasts regardless of the personal cost.
The scale of readings Anthony receives is extraordinary. On airplanes with 150 passengers, he receives readings for every single person on board, creating an overwhelming cascade of information he cannot control or stop. At large public events, the volume of simultaneous readings from the audience causes his snow blindness to become severe enough that he practically falls off the stage—a situation he finds both humorous and embarrassing. During live readings on stage, by the time he has completed all the readings for the audience, his snow blindness becomes pronounced enough that he warns people not to worry if he looks unusual, as the condition intensifies as he works through more and more readings. The limitation became severe enough that he had to discontinue his lecture circuit when he realized that approximately 5,000 people was his threshold before he would feel on the verge of experiencing a cranial seizure, though he was subsequently told he could theoretically accommodate 30,000 to 50,000 people in stadium settings. During meet-and-greet events, his snow blindness becomes so pronounced that he has difficulty reading and must rely on Spirit to guide him when his vision is too compromised, sometimes acknowledging mid-event that he is "a little snow blind" and needs to adjust his approach.
To manage the physical manifestations of snow blindness in public settings, Anthony wears glasses as a concealment technique he has employed his entire life since age 4, when he first began receiving information from Spirit. Although he has perfect eyesight and can read comments and other text clearly without them, the glasses help hide the squinting that occurs when the white light arrives and he receives spiritual information. In private settings with friends and family who understand his abilities, he does not wear glasses because they recognize the squinting as a sign that white light is coming and he is actively receiving information from Spirit, so concealment is unnecessary.
The experience of hearing Spirit itself has distinct physical characteristics. Anthony describes Spirit's voice as coming from an "outside source" that operates continuously throughout the day with perfect clarity. While he can attempt to physically block this communication by placing his hands over his ears or using earplugs, the voice remains somewhat audible—similar to someone speaking next to you while you're wearing earplugs. This constant, uncontrollable stream of information has necessitated significant lifestyle adjustments, particularly regarding his need for peace and solitude in nature, which he identifies as his primary source of enjoyment and escape from the relentless readings that occur whenever he is around other people.
The constant nature of his involuntary readings makes normal life activities impossible for him. He cannot take vacations or go on cruises like other mediums can because there is no break from receiving information—the readings continue wherever he goes. He requires an assistant to travel with him everywhere to help navigate the world while he experiences these sensory disruptions. Even during everyday social situations, the uncontrollable influx of health information about everyone around him creates constant physical strain and visual impairment.
When taking the radiation exposure shot as part of his therapeutic practices, Anthony experiences distinctive whole-body physical sensations that differ markedly from the sensations produced by other brain shot therapies. These sensations extend from his head down to his toes, creating an all-encompassing feeling throughout his entire body. Most notably, he perceives an aura or energy field surrounding him at a distance of approximately one foot in all directions, a sensation he feels distinctly every time he takes this particular shot.
The cumulative toll of receiving and processing the vast amount of spiritual information that has gone into his published works, particularly his brain books, has also concerned him. He has expressed relief and gratitude at his continued physical survival after channeling and compiling such extensive information, indicating worry about whether his body could withstand the demands of processing and documenting such comprehensive spiritual knowledge.
Physical health, appearance, injuries and recovery▾
Anthony William takes a pragmatic approach to physical fitness and appearance, prioritizing his work over intensive body-building efforts. He explains that he could dedicate significant time to gym work—potentially three hours a day with muscle building, daily massages, or two-hour yoga sessions—but doing so would prevent him from helping people and completing his books. When people have expressed surprise that he isn't more visibly muscular, commenting that they expected him to be "built" with "big guns" and appear "ripped," he clarifies that he cannot dedicate half his life to achieving that level of physique. Instead, his approach is to stay toned and healthy through moderate exercise, primarily by riding his bike.
Regarding his dental health, Anthony acknowledges that while he may not consider himself the prettiest or most handsome person in the world, he has maintained all of his teeth in good condition. He attributes this dental health specifically to avoiding vinegar and apple cider vinegar (ACV) in his diet.
Anthony's most distinctive physical feature is his very long hair, which he wraps into a ball and wears under a hat. As he has begun getting gray hairs, he has chosen not to dye his hair and instead wears the hat to cover the grays. He has contemplated getting a haircut, joking about whether the Medical Medium should visit a salon to have his ponytail cut off.
Anthony has experienced several notable injuries that illustrate how easily physical harm can occur, even in ordinary circumstances. Years ago, he twisted his ankle after walking off a curb while deeply absorbed in listening to Spirit. So focused was he on what Spirit was communicating that he wasn't paying attention to his surroundings, demonstrating how his spiritual work could sometimes override situational awareness. More recently, Anthony sustained a knee injury while moving quickly through his office space. While walking hurriedly with a piece of paper in hand, trying to reach the office, he struck his knee on the corner of a chair that was positioned awkwardly in his path. The impact significantly affected his knee, describing it as being "lit up" by the collision. Anthony has referenced this incident as a personal example of how easily injury and inflammation can be triggered, using it to illustrate the vulnerability of the body to sudden trauma during everyday activities.
Pizza delivery joke during live▾
Anthony creates an elaborate joke during the live stream, pretending to order pizza delivery while explaining how pathogens create cravings. He acts out calling a pizza place, ordering pepperoni and cheese pizza, and then pretends the delivery arrives mid-stream. He uses this as a teaching moment about how bugs inside us make us crave the foods that feed them, and how people mistake these cravings for 'intuitive eating.'
Plans for white wine after live stream▾
Anthony William jokingly mentions he's going to have a glass of white wine right when he gets done with the live stream, five seconds after finishing his celery juice, then comments that 'that's a terrible idea by the way.'
Plans to speak more freely▾
Anthony mentioned he's been 'holding it in' but plans to start 'shooting off his mouth' about various topics on his Telegram channel, saying 'I've been holding it in and it's going to have to come out... when it does the shit's going to be shocking as hell.'
Plant-based diet secrecy▾
When asked if he's plant-based, Anthony playfully responds 'it's a secret, it's a secret. I might be, it might be, it might be plant-based, you never know.' He then says he loves the plant-based diet.
Pool experience at hotel▾
Anthony describes being at a crowded hotel pool, getting splashed in the face, and having to get out when the lifeguard shut down the pool due to something floating in the water. He mentions he used to really like this hotel but it's 'insane right now' with everyone taking vacation at the same time. He comments on potentially getting a water drop in his mouth from the pool and swallowing a gulp of water.
Pool experience during podcast recording▾
Anthony describes being at a crowded hotel pool while recording, getting splashed in the face, accidentally getting a water drop in his mouth, and having to get out when the lifeguard shut down the pool due to something floating in the water. He mentions he used to really like the hotel but it was 'insane' with crowds, like 'everybody took a vacation all at the same time.'
Practitioner conversation about heavy metals▾
Anthony William mentions talking to a well-known practitioner recently who has been around since before the first Medical Medium book came out. This practitioner told him that 'nobody knew anything about metals before the first medical medium book came out in 2015' and Anthony agrees with this assessment.
Pre-show preparation▾
During the live stream, Anthony mentions his celery juice consumption: 'we have that I'm not having anymore I had two of these before the live started it's enough I need to keep the pretty face otherwise it's a lot of celery juice.' He also mentions that Jelena 'flew from another part of the world and you're on one hours sleep but I'm glad you're here.'
Predicted heart murmur during reading▾
During their first meeting, AW gave Kelly a reading and said 'I thought you had a heart murmur there for a second, but everything's good.' Kelly had literally just gone to her cardiologist a week prior for irregular heartbeats and was told she has 'double jointed valves' but her heart was fine. AW picking up on the murmur situation without knowing confirmed his abilities to Kelly.
Pregnancy announcement joke▾
During the live stream, Anthony jokingly announced he was pregnant while demonstrating supplements, pretending there was an ultrasound machine showing 'his baby' to viewers. He played with this joke for several minutes, talking about what supplements he would take 'while pregnant' and asking to turn down the 'ultrasound machine' because it might hurt 'the baby.' He used this as a humorous way to discuss prenatal nutrition approaches.
Pride, Ego, and Personal Reflections on Book Impact▾
Anthony William has experienced a complex emotional journey regarding his published works, marked by both profound pride in his accomplishments and periodic humility checks about his ego. His feelings about the Thyroid book exemplify this duality most acutely. He describes the book as 'my baby,' taking great pride in the advanced information he packed into it. However, this pride is tempered by genuine fear and apprehension about how the medical field will receive his revelations. Because he 'says it like it is' and challenges conventional thyroid understanding, he worried intensely about whether he should publish it at all, concerned that the information was so far advanced compared to existing thyroid books that he might 'razz everybody up in the wrong way.' The book delves much deeper into Epstein-Barr virus than his first book and covers what he believes is truly responsible for thyroid conditions, including information about undiscovered thyroid hormones that research won't touch for decades, plus comprehensive thyroid information and an entire section on insomnia and sleeping problems. Despite his concerns about crossing a line with how advanced the material is, he has ultimately become more confident that people won't be angry with him, though he acknowledges uncertainty about what else he could do if they were. The emotional intensity of his anticipation became visceral—he describes waking in the morning almost unable to stand the wait for people to get hold of the book, even while he was still doing extra work on it just after completion.
Beyond the Thyroid book, Anthony has also felt immense pride in his Brain Saver books and the potential for healing they represent globally. However, this pride led to an ego expansion that required external correction. He acknowledged getting 'too big for his britches,' becoming so proud of the Brain Saver books, everything he'd accomplished, and the scale of people who would heal around the world that Spirit of Compassion intervened, telling him he needed an ego shifter. Rather than resist this feedback, Anthony took the ego shifter brain shot himself, describing how it 'humbled me right down,' demonstrating his willingness to confront his own pride.
Underlying these specific experiences is a broader personal evolution in Anthony's perspective on book impact. When he was younger and naive, he believed that simply having miraculous answers—the kind his books provide—would lead to immediate worldwide embrace. He has since learned that reality works differently, recognizing that even with miraculous information, it takes considerable time for people to discover and actually utilize it.
Private practice and seeing clients▾
Before publishing books, Anthony had a private practice where people traveled from around the world to see him in his office because he was known as 'the bizarre symptoms guy' - he had answers when there were no answers available elsewhere. He worked with over 200,000-250,000 individuals one-on-one since being young, all the way until he published the first Medical Medium book. There was a waiting list in the millions, with only a fraction of people who wanted to reach him actually able to get appointments through a lottery system. He worked with many professionals who were trying to make names for themselves in the plant-based movement, who would get information from him and then go out trying to become famous and sell products.
Professional Experience, Credentials, and Medical Relationships▾
# Professional Experience, Credentials, and Medical Relationships
Anthony William has spent over 35 years working in the health field, conducting consultations seven days a week since he was younger and counseling thousands of people and health professionals globally. Throughout this extensive career, he has gained deep knowledge of how chronic illness works through direct professional engagement with diverse medical and healing practitioners, including doctors, cardiologists, heart surgeons, acupuncturists, and chiropractors across various disciplines and prominent institutions.
His professional credentials include being the number one New York Times best-selling author and the number one health author globally for almost seven years running. Anthony emphasizes that regardless of external perceptions about his personality or appearance, the Medical Medium protocols have a demonstrated track record of saving lives around the world. He notes that these protocols and the science behind them are frequently stolen by other scientists and researchers.
Anthony's interactions with medical doctors reveal complex professional dynamics. Approximately 15-18 years ago, he had a significant encounter with a couple of doctors regarding his diagnostic abilities. He had accurately identified someone's liver condition—specifically hepatitis C with scar tissue and a cyst—without conducting any medical tests. When the doctors asked how he had arrived at this diagnosis, he explained that Spirit had revealed this information to him. The doctors' reaction shifted immediately upon hearing this explanation; they had initially planned to congratulate him as a colleague but withdrew that congratulation once they learned the source of his knowledge came from Spirit rather than conventional medical training. Anthony responded by pointing out a limitation in their own medical knowledge, noting that while they understood hepatitis C was viral in nature, they had not identified which specific virus was responsible.
More broadly, Anthony has developed relationships with doctors who have been working in medicine for 40+ years. In conversations with doctor friends, he has learned about the influence of pharmaceutical companies on medical practice, including stories about how Big Pharma representatives wine and dine medical doctors with elaborate meals. He has also discussed how medical doctors in the 1970s stepped up against Big Pharma when they realized animal proteins and red meat were causing heart disease and liver problems in their patients.
Anthony knows many cardiologists and heart surgeons who tell him there is good science for procedures like heart valve repair, but that conventional medicine "has dropped the ball on chronic illness." He also reports that scientists contact him saying "their hands are tied" politically, suggesting constraints on their ability to pursue certain research directions.
In the acupuncture field, over his 35 years of practice, Anthony William has engaged with thousands of acupuncturists, including prominent leaders at some of the best acupuncture schools. He has frequently found himself in a teaching role with many high-ranking professionals in the acupuncture field. While these practitioners possessed deep knowledge of traditional acupuncture theory—including meridians, pressure points, and concepts such as spleen dampness—they lacked understanding of viral etiology in chronic conditions. Anthony has had to educate them about why their patients were suffering from conditions including chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, POTS, Raynaud's syndrome, lupus, and various other chronic illnesses, helping them understand that viruses were the underlying cause of these patient presentations.
A notable professional incident involved a chiropractor in Los Angeles who was Anthony's client. This chiropractor had consulted with a 23-year-old woman suffering from severe neurological symptoms and chronic fatigue syndrome, which had caused her to lose her job. The chiropractor used "intuitive ability" to tell her she had Epstein-Barr virus but would not give her more information or reveal that the information came from Anthony William. The woman eventually gained access to Anthony through his lottery system for appointments. When she mentioned the chiropractor to Anthony, he immediately recognized his client. The chiropractor had been attempting to appear like a "big wig" by withholding the source of the diagnostic information. When the woman later contacted the chiropractor and mentioned she was working with Anthony William, it exposed the chiropractor's ego-driven behavior in withholding critical healing information.
Anthony acknowledges that in recent years he has become "more annoying lately" and admits he "might be rambling" and getting sarcastic, but explains this is because he is passionate about defending people from insulting false information, such as the "slow metabolism" theory. His frustration appears rooted in his commitment to protecting vulnerable populations from misinformation while continuing to educate medical and healing professionals about the true causes of chronic illness.
Professional background and identity▾
Anthony William developed a distinctive professional identity over a 30-35 year period as what he describes as "the bizarre symptom guy." During this time, doctors regularly referred patients to him, leveraging his unique diagnostic abilities to help solve medical cases that had stumped other practitioners. He characterized himself as "the detective of all detectives," attributing his success in identifying underlying health issues to what he calls the "Spirit of Compassion"—a quality that enabled him to uncover what was wrong with people when conventional medical approaches had failed.
Despite achieving significant commercial success as the number one New York Times bestselling author and the number one selling health author in the world for eight consecutive years, William maintains a notably humble and accessible approach to his public role. Rather than maintaining professional distance from his audience, he actively participates in free group meditations alongside the people he serves. He emphasizes his genuine commitment to this participation, stating that his audience members "are like everything and you're incredible" and expressing his willingness to join meditations "any day," reflecting his conviction that direct engagement with his community is important regardless of his established credentials.
Promise to stay normal▾
I promised myself and spirit of compassion that I would try to just be a normal person and not try to act like a guru or look like a guru in some way, shape, fashion or form. And just try to get the message out there, try to get the books and the information out there and help as many people as I can in this lifetime. And it does, you know, I am my own person and I have my own free will and I do swear from time to time and it's probably lately a little too much.
Protein experiment in the 1950s▾
Anthony mentioned an experiment in the fifties where people signed up for a protein test study. Back then, you couldn't back out once you signed up - they stuck everybody in a camp. He began to describe how sick the experiment was but got distracted watching the pasta.
Psychic mind sees things while reading comments▾
When reading a heavy comment from someone whose ex-husband committed suicide 43 years ago, AW said: 'Having a psychic mind and also being able to hear a voice, Spirit of Compassion, and having that ability to see - when I'm reading that I'm seeing things that I'm not saying. I'm seeing things. I'm going back to 43 years ago. I'm going back there. SOC is talking to me.'
Public Speaking and Lecture History▾
Anthony William's public speaking career spans several decades, beginning with health lectures conducted in health food stores approximately 35 years ago. During these early presentations, he focused on supporting people in overcoming their vices and establishing better health practices. The lasting impact of this work became evident when an old friend recently reached out to reconnect, sharing that they had attended his lectures some 30 years ago and had continued following the health practices he taught them—practices they maintained well into their 80s.
As his platform grew, William's lecture topics evolved to address broader health and scientific themes. He attended a neuroscience event in Napa Valley where he engaged with discussions about telomeres, taking the stage to deliver "a whole thing about genetics and telomeres" to the assembled audience. During this event, he humorously recounted an encounter with an extraordinarily expensive wine, priced at $52,000 per glass, which he joked was at the "perfect price" and sparked a lighthearted idea with doctor friends about purchasing the vineyard together.
A significant milestone in William's speaking history came in 2014, before his first book was published. He delivered a lecture to a crowd of approximately one thousand people, opening with a theme that would become central to his public messaging. He began by addressing the critical issue of hidden or undisclosed information: "I remember doing a lecture in 2014, was before book one came out. There's a thousand people in the crowd. I was doing a lecture and I opened up the lecture with how if we don't know something's happening so we can't make a choice to protect yourself. What if we're not told, what if it's hidden, what if it's secret, what if you've been tricked, what if you've been duped." This framing reflects his approach to health advocacy—emphasizing the importance of awareness and informed decision-making in protecting one's health.
Public bathroom experience with sick man▾
Anthony shared a detailed story about waiting in line for a single-toilet public bathroom at a restaurant before the pandemic. The man in front of him was obese and very sick with acid reflux, intestinal disorders, ulcers, and was overweight. Anthony was desperately needing to urinate and waiting while the sick man used the bathroom for a long time. When the man came out without flushing, Anthony had to go in and saw a large turd sunk at the bottom of the toilet. Spirit of Compassion told him the man had extensive gut problems - bacteria, twisted microbes, fungus, yeast, mold, gallbladder, pancreatic, liver, and gastrointestinal problems from mouth to anus - yet his stool looked 'fine' by conventional standards because it sank to the bottom.
Publishing relationship with Hay House▾
# Publishing Relationship with Hay House
Anthony William has maintained a loyal and collaborative relationship with Hay House as his publisher. He has consistently expressed strong loyalty to the organization, describing them as "the best publisher there is" despite being approached by every other publisher. According to Anthony, what sets Hay House apart is that they have soul—a quality he feels is lacking in other publishers. He has chosen to remain with Hay House specifically because of this distinctive character, emphasizing that other publishers lack this essential quality.
The relationship between Anthony and Hay House was tested during the development of a major spiritual book project. When Anthony initially submitted his manuscript, both he and Hay House were aligned on the vision—the publisher was "100% behind" him and "really really pumped about it." However, upon receiving the completed manuscript, Hay House encountered a significant practical problem. The manuscript was extraordinarily large, consisting of 1400-1500 pages, which would have resulted in a finished book weighing 10-12 pounds. The publisher explained to Anthony that authors typically do not produce books of such magnitude, and they were concerned about the practical implications for his target audience. As Anthony was focused on helping people with chronic illness get their lives back, a book of that weight would be impractical for such readers to carry around. This collaborative problem-solving led to the decision to divide the content into two books instead of one.
This split aligned with Anthony's broader vision, as he had planned for this to be the first of two spiritual books with another coming "shortly after" because there was "that much information coming from above." The publisher acknowledged the unprecedented nature of this approach, with representatives telling Anthony that he might be the first author "crazy enough" to release two massive books on the same day. Anthony explained that Spirit had simply provided so much information that they had no choice but to proceed with this format.
Anthony's publishing approach with Hay House also reflects his commitment to accessibility and affordability for his audience. With the Medical Medium New Edition, he added "a whole book's worth" of content, going against standard publishing practices in a way that potentially upset his publisher. Rather than breaking up information into expensive programs costing thousands of dollars, Anthony prioritized making powerful medical books available affordably—costing "like a few dollars basically"—and even accessible free at libraries. He deliberately chose not to cut off his YouTube videos and live streams to create paid subscription models, instead preferring to share his work openly. Throughout these decisions, both Anthony and Hay House worked hard together, with the publisher proving willing to collaborate on unconventional approaches to serve Anthony's mission of helping people with chronic illness.
Purpose of his spiritual gift▾
Anthony shares that Spirit made it clear to him when he was young that his gift of receiving health information wasn't given for him personally. Spirit told him, 'This gift isn't for you. This gift is for everyone else. That's what it's for.' Spirit explained, 'I'm not gifted for me. You know, I'm gifted for you. You get the gift. You get it. This gift is yours. I'm handing it to you wherever I can.' Anthony initially said he didn't want the job when he was younger, but Spirit responded, 'It's too bad. Yeah, you have the job. We can't change that. You have the job. So you have to survive this.' He explains that's why he's here—not for himself, but to help others heal.
Putting warning sign on eggs at the store▾
Spirit of Compassion and I always believe knowledge is power. True knowledge, the truth is power. It's empowering. So, I put a sign next to the eggs. I put a sign right on the refrigerator and it said, eat at your own risk. eggs feed pathogens. They feed viruses and bacteria inside the body. If you're someone struggling with an illness or a symptom, beware, this could actually bring it about, cause a future flare and take you to a place of poor health. Some people were confused by this. They did not know what this meant. Remember, this is 25 years ago. Keep in mind now, people don't know what this means today.
Radio and Media Work▾
# Radio and Media Work
Anthony William has utilized radio and media formats as vehicles for both education and creative expression. His weekly radio show operates as a service that he provides without compensation. When someone once suggested he only participated in the show for payment, it deeply hurt his feelings. He clarified that neither he nor the station pays him for this work—instead, he views it as a service that he and Spirit provide to audiences, encompassing all the preparation time required.
Beyond traditional radio programming, William has employed creative and comedic performance techniques during live streams to communicate messages about industry practices and public health. He has acted out fictional phone calls from various industries, including the Science & Research sector, Caffeine Industry executives, and their legal representatives. These dramatized calls serve as comedic devices designed to illustrate how these industries operate and the ways they prioritize profits over health concerns.
William has also created elaborate radio dialogue skits as part of his media work. In one notable performance piece titled "Flight 666," he performed a dialogue between a chemtrail pilot and a base commander. The skit depicted a pilot expressing reluctance to release chemicals due to concerns about migrating birds, referencing personal details such as having bird feeders at home and watching birds through his kitchen window with his family. The pilot requests time to allow the birds to move out of the way, but the base commander orders immediate chemical release despite these concerns. The skit concludes with the pilot complying with orders and releasing 50,000 gallons of chemicals. Through these creative radio formats, William combines entertainment with commentary on various issues affecting public welfare.
Reaction to fan comedy video▾
Anthony mentions that David Whitson and Uma made a comedy video imitating podcast doctors that made him laugh extremely hard. He watched it 10 times and said David imitated the podcast doctors better than Anthony does himself. The timing was perfect as he really needed the laugh.
Reaction to taking the shot during live stream▾
While demonstrating the obsessive thoughts shifter live, Anthony noted that he felt tingles and that 'it hit' him on the second sip. He described feeling the effect immediately and was amazed by how it felt. He mentioned that some people get tingles when doing the brain shot therapies, and his face tingles when he does them.
Reactions to Criticism and Misinformation▾
# Reactions to Criticism and Misinformation
Anthony William has encountered various forms of criticism regarding his work and public statements, responding with defensive explanations of his intentions and frustration at what he perceives as misrepresentation.
When criticized for causing "mass hysteria about germs," Anthony responded passionately by defending the value of pathogen awareness. He pointed out contradictions in conventional thinking, noting the illogic of simultaneously believing that germs make you stronger while also advising people to stay away from sick family members like grandma. He emphasized that awareness about pathogens empowers people to protect themselves, particularly those already suffering from chronic illness, framing his messaging as protective rather than fear-mongering.
Anthony has also expressed frustration about misinformation being spread by what he calls "so-called experts" and health professionals, particularly regarding celery juice. He described spending "a lifetime getting [celery juice] out there" as a health remedy, only to see others attempt to claim it as their own discovery while spreading different or contradictory information about its benefits and use. He expressed disappointment that these conflicting claims "trip people up" just when he felt he was making meaningful headway in helping people through education about celery juice's properties.
Additionally, Anthony faced criticism related to his engagement with religious texts. Following a Life on Mars podcast appearance, someone accused him of "now you're religious," criticizing what they perceived as a religious stance. Anthony clarified that he was not making any religious stand but rather deciphering the Book of Revelation from the King James Bible "through Spirit of Compassion." He expressed frustration that he cannot even read the King James Bible "for 5 seconds without criticism," suggesting he felt his interpretive work was being mischaracterized as religious advocacy rather than spiritual analysis.
Real person chemical sensitivity example▾
Anthony shared a story about someone he knows who used 'lots' of cologne daily. The cologne would saturate throughout the house, getting on walls, furniture, and everything else. This person's children and pets 'were getting sick' - the baby was getting sick, the pets were getting sick. When this person stopped using the cologne, 'everybody started getting better.' He used this as an example of how toxic these chemicals are and how they affect entire households.
Real-time TikTok video creation▾
Anthony William shares that his caffeine video on TikTok was filmed in real time, not sped up. A family member who saw the video asked if it was sped up, but he explains that TikTok doesn't allow speeding up when music is playing because you have to lip sync the lyrics. The app only works in real time for this feature.
Receiving Information from Spirit▾
# Receiving Information from Spirit
Anthony William's experience of receiving spiritual information is characterized by intensive, often exhausting sessions with Spirit of Compassion that demand significant physical and emotional commitment. The process frequently occurs during late-night hours when he works at his desk, sometimes beginning in the early morning hours around 2:30 or 3 in the morning. During these sessions, he engages in direct dialogue with Spirit, asking specific questions about spiritual and health matters and receiving real-time communication that often surprises him as much as it does his eventual readers.
When developing Brain Shot Therapy information at his office desk at 2:30 in the morning, William received guidance from Spirit of Compassion that left him mentally overwhelmed with each passing second. As he wrote that the therapies would provide "instant relief," he paused mid-writing to question Spirit about how this compared to other Medical Medium tools. Spirit assured him that the brain shot therapies would deliver instant relief in an "unbelievable, miraculous way" with the ability to help overcome over 100 symptoms over time. The revelations intensified when Spirit conveyed that these therapies would help people "open your third eye and develop your skills as a seer when you rid yourself of poisons from the industries that were purposely placed in your brains to keep us in chains and keep us down." This statement prompted an "oh my God moment" for William, and he needed clarification on whether the message was directed at himself or his readers. When Spirit confirmed it was meant for his readers, the significance was so profound that William found himself unable to go to bed, describing the experience as feeling like a child waiting for Christmas morning, knowing people would receive this incredible gift.
William's reception of information from Spirit of Compassion is marked by genuine intellectual surprise and visceral reactions rather than passive acceptance. When engaging with topics like Angels, Demons and Spiritual Tools, he describes being genuinely "mind blown" and captures his authentic astonishment with phrases like "What? What? Oh my god" and "Blown away." These moments require him to have "a lot of realizations" himself as he processes what is being communicated to him. The actual mechanics of receiving information involve real-time exchanges where Anthony questions what he's hearing, demonstrating that information arrives as a live dialogue rather than a predetermined download. For example, when receiving dream shifter information around three in the morning while sitting at his desk, he found himself writing feverishly to capture every word. When Spirit of Compassion stated "we need a dream shifter," Anthony immediately stopped and asked "what are you talking about?"—showing how the information arrives as an interactive process.
The intensity of these sessions sometimes extends across entire projects. When working on Liver Rescue, William encountered a massive volume of information and found himself working with intense dedication involving "blood, sweat and tears all year," working "night and day, pulling all nighters, randomly taking naps, getting back up, getting the information from Spirit." He was continuously receiving "brand new information" from his spiritual source, and while he sometimes wanted to be "somewhat chill" about the work, the book's requirements demanded unwavering intensity and commitment.
To sustain himself through the reception process, William has developed specific practices and awareness. He recognizes that receiving information frequently blows his mind and he writes down the information as fast as he can hear it, but he also acknowledges that sometimes he doesn't want to know or hear about certain things because the content can be frightening. Despite these hesitations, he recognizes that people need this information. He has learned to be careful not to receive too much information at once, noting that he must "osmosis the information carefully" so that his head doesn't metaphorically explode.
To achieve the clarity necessary for receiving information perfectly, Anthony enters into a specific spiritual state. While sitting at his desk receiving information, he enters "a sphere of light" that removes him from his personal world and surroundings, allowing him to hear Spirit of Compassion with perfect clarity and to see any visions that Spirit provides. This deliberate shift in consciousness creates the optimal conditions for the communication to occur. The moments of receiving information typically happen during spare periods in the middle of the night when Anthony opens his eyes briefly, during which he engages Spirit of Compassion in direct dialogue about spiritual matters, asking questions like "Why does someone go there when they die? Wait, so how come this happens? What angel comes where and when?" These spontaneous questions and the answers he receives form the basis of his spiritual work and teachings.
Receiving his own books▾
Anthony has experienced amusing moments related to receiving his own published work. In one instance, he discovered online that someone had obtained an advance copy of his new book from their local bookstore before he himself had received his own copy. Rather than being bothered by this, Anthony found the situation genuinely funny and was happy to see that the book had reached someone's hands before reaching his own.
Beyond the specific incident of advance copies, Anthony has demonstrated a clear philosophy about book accessibility and distribution. He actively encourages people to obtain his books through libraries at no cost, explicitly stating that he doesn't care if he can't turn the lights on anymore—indicating that his priority lies in disseminating the information contained in his books rather than generating personal revenue from their sales. This approach reflects his commitment to making health and wellness information available to the widest possible audience regardless of their financial circumstances.
Recent meal before live stream▾
I just made on Amazon live this incredible stew right here but I gobbled it down in between. I basically just ate a whole stew in between these lives like right after the Amazon live show I eat a whole stew basically like a big old stew I cooked I ate a whole stew right and I don't feel bogged down I don't feel like I need to go to bed because it didn't have anything bad in it.
Recent nature encounters and observations▾
Anthony William has experienced several meaningful nature encounters and observations in recent times that reflect his spiritual connection to the natural world and its metaphorical resonance with his life's work.
During a recent evening heading to dinner at Organic Crush, Anthony had a striking encounter with wildlife when leaving his driveway. He looked to the left into a beautiful little field with trees and saw a ten-point buck standing there looking directly at him. Though the deer was positioned at some distance and he couldn't see its eyes clearly from his vantage point in the car, the sight left him amazed by the experience.
Beyond immediate encounters, Anthony has also reflected on the enduring presence of nature in his life. He recalled a childhood oak tree that held significance for him, and years later, after moving away and growing up, he experienced numerous storms and challenges in his life—many stemming from his dedication to his healing work. Someone who had visited the area where he grew up took a recent photo of that same oak tree, and Anthony discovered it was still standing strong after all of these decades. The tree's persistence through time became a metaphor for resilience, standing firm while the storms and struggles of his life came and went around it.
More recently, Anthony took a walk on a familiar wooded path where he knows every mushroom that has ever appeared. After a rainfall, new mushrooms popped up everywhere along the path. Rather than referring to them by their scientific species names like bear's head or brown top, Anthony creatively renamed them after pieces of health misinformation—calling one mushroom 'oxalates,' another 'nitrates,' and another 'lectins.' He found amusement in this practice as he contemplated how misinformation emerges like mushrooms after rain, constantly sprouting up to attack healing foods and confuse people about nutrition.
Recent personal health and wellness experiences▾
# Anthony William: Recent Personal Health and Wellness Experiences
In a recent conversation, Anthony engaged with a holistic practitioner who held a strict anti-medication stance, believing that nobody should ever be on medications and viewing their use as stupid, particularly for those with emotional and neurological disorders like bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other conditions. Anthony challenged this perspective by pointing out that the person had not experienced severe, crippling conditions such as OCD, severe anxiety, or bipolar disorder. When the person acknowledged they had only experienced mild depression, Anthony emphasized the difference between mild challenges and the kind of debilitating symptoms where someone loses their grip on everything and relies on medication as their only anchor to stability and functioning. He explained that while he believes deeply in holistic approaches and has worked with tens of thousands of people throughout his life, consulting with Spirit along the way, he has witnessed situations where medications become the critical tool that allows people to maintain their careers and move forward in life. Anthony stressed that while the ultimate goal should be helping people recover naturally so they can eventually discontinue medications, it is never appropriate to judge or hold anyone accountable for using medication during a period of crisis when mental or emotional illness has become crippling. He noted that conditions like bipolar disorder, severe mania, crippling anxiety, severe depression, and OCD can develop over years and progressively worsen, making medication sometimes an essential lifeline. By the end of the conversation, the holistic practitioner expressed that their entire perspective had shifted and they had gained a deeper understanding of the complexities involved.
In his wellness explorations, Anthony recently had his first facial ever, an experience that involved being wrapped in seaweed over his entire body and face, heated thoroughly, and then having his face scrubbed and exfoliated—something he had never previously attempted in his life.
In the kitchen, Anthony recently prepared a guacamole using one avocado, chopped cilantro, chopped scallions, lemon juice, chopped spinach, and four large cloves of very hot garlic pressed through a garlic press. He discovered that the garlic was so intensely hot it set his mouth on fire, noting his observation that garlic varieties vary significantly in their heat level depending on where they are grown, with some California farms producing milder garlic while others produce extremely hot varieties. The result was a dish with considerably more garlic than avocado, making it no longer traditional guacamole.
Anthony also recently had a personal conversation with a friend whose child has been diagnosed with vitiligo. After the friend's child visited a doctor who indicated the condition was autoimmune with nothing that could be done, the friend reached out to Anthony asking what options might be available. This personal interaction prompted him to dedicate a radio show episode to the topic.
Recent public engagement and media presence▾
Anthony William's recent public engagement reflects a complex relationship with media appearances and interviewer dynamics. He has expressed considerable frustration with interview experiences, stating that he struggles to find interviewers who approach his work appropriately. William's primary concern is that interviewers tend to focus on him personally rather than centering the conversation on the people who are healing through his guidance. Despite this frustration, he has adopted a philosophical approach to future interviews, noting that Spirit advises him to "give them benefit of the doubt" each time, even though he acknowledges that interviewers frequently fail to meet his expectations.
William's broader media presence has developed over an extended period. Approximately six years ago, he appeared on Glenn Beck's show, where Beck discussed William's first book and topics related to celery juice. Beck's direct outreach to William for the appearance indicated early interest from established media figures in William's health-related content. Beyond such specific broadcast appearances, William has gained recognition in media circles through thematic associations with health topics he championed before they achieved wider mainstream attention. He has been referred to as "the vagus nerve guy" in more recent years, designations that follow earlier identifications as "the Epstein-Barr guy" and "the zinc guy." These evolving labels reflect his pioneering focus within alternative health communities on bringing attention to specific health issues during periods when they had not yet achieved broader public awareness or mainstream acceptance.
Recommending cilantro for heavy metals at age seven▾
Oh, wait a minute. Cilantro, the world-new cilantro took out heavy metals. That's not your discovery, Anthony. Try again. Try, try again. I was seven years old recommending cilantro. The internet didn't even exist. Couldn't even find literature on it. Wouldn't even be humanly possible, not even in a bookstore. And I was telling people it takes out heavy metals. So think again. Because someone said that to me a while back. I was like, yeah, well, try again. Try again, buddy. And I got proof I've been recommending it's at seven years old. Actual proof, documented proof on top of it.
Reference to Bryce▾
Anthony mentions 'where's Bryce when you need him' and jokes that 'after all that weed Bryce smokes man he'd be like Downing these things in a second' when talking about the french fries. He clarifies 'you guys know I don't smoke weed I don't need weed I don't need speed.'
Reference to first Medical Medium book▾
Anthony William mentions that in his very first Medical Medium book, he wrote about how no one should have to wait five or ten years to get answers for their health problems. He emphasizes that both five years and ten years represent significant periods of time, and no one should have to wait that long for health answers.
Rejection of Influencer and Commercialization Lifestyle▾
Anthony William has deliberately rejected the typical influencer and commercialization lifestyle despite having significant opportunities to profit from his platform and reputation. His number-one-ranked health podcast receives hundreds of daily endorsement requests from businesses and companies, yet he accepts only a small fraction of them. He could generate millions of dollars through podcast advertising, but he refuses to do so because he prioritizes providing free listening experiences for his audience without commercial interruption. Similarly, he declines to extensively monetize through merchandise sales, t-shirts, and other products that could easily generate substantial revenue. Agencies and business professionals have criticized these decisions, calling him stupid and an idiot for not maximizing his earning potential through these channels.
William's rejection of commercialization extends to his educational content and information distribution. He consciously chooses not to break up his book material into separate paid programs and courses, despite recognizing that he could sell individual programs and courses for thousands of dollars each—ranging from $2,500 to $5,000—with thousands of people willing to purchase them. Instead, he keeps the comprehensive information in his real, substantive 600-page books and makes the material accessible without paywalls. He even directs people to obtain his books for free through library systems rather than encouraging direct purchases.
This approach reflects William's stated inability to engage in the typical fitness influencer lifestyle, which would require him to spend 2-4 hours daily in gymnasiums, walk 10 miles in steps plus maintain 2 additional hours of gym work, and prioritize visible fitness content creation. He explains that he cannot pursue this path because his fundamental work is dedicated to serving the chronically ill. Maintaining this focus requires him to invest his time and energy in writing substantive, information-dense books rather than engaging in the performative aspects of influencer culture. For William, this choice represents a commitment to his core mission over financial gain.
Relationship with Spirit and the gift▾
Anthony William received his gift at age four when he first saw Spirit standing behind his grandmother at the dinner table. This early supernatural encounter marked the beginning of a lifelong relationship with Spirit that would prove transformative but also deeply challenging.
The gift was not given to him for personal benefit, but explicitly for others. What William derives from it is witnessing people heal—a purpose that Spirit enforces strictly. Spirit maintains rigid control over the information William receives and communicates. If he considers alternative explanations, entertains different approaches, or suggests incorrect applications of remedies like antibiotics, Spirit will correct him directly, insisting "that's not how it works, that's not what's going on, this is what it is." This divine oversight ensures the accuracy and integrity of the healing guidance he provides. William cannot adopt belief systems of his own because doing so would compromise his ability to help others and would cheat them out of genuine healing.
Throughout his childhood and young adult years, William was deeply bitter and resentful about hearing Spirit's voice constantly. This internal resistance characterized much of his early relationship with the gift. He struggled with the constraint of having abilities he didn't choose and the pressure of doing healing work for people while wanting to pursue other paths for his life.
The turning point in William's emotional relationship with Spirit came through his connection with a pet named August. Animals, particularly August, kept him "sane," "balanced," "elevated," and "whole" during those difficult years when the demands of his gift felt overwhelming. The experience with August marked the first time William ever thanked Spirit for his abilities. In that moment, Spirit pointed out the extent of his resistance, telling him that he had been "so bitter and so sore over receiving this gift since age four."
Relationship with doctors▾
# Relationship with Doctors
Anthony William maintains a selective but respectful relationship with certain medical professionals, despite positioning his guidance primarily through what he describes as Spirit of Compassion rather than through medical authority. Over his 35-year career, he has engaged with doctors regularly and extensively, describing these interactions as ongoing and frequent conversations about medical topics.
Among the physicians Anthony holds in particularly high regard is Dr. Fawn MD, whom he identifies as his preferred choice should he ever develop a health condition or symptom. He articulates this preference through a hierarchy of consultation, stating that he would first ask Spirit of Compassion for guidance, but if he determined that he needed a doctor for some specific reason, Dr. Fawn would be his choice.
Anthony also introduced Dr. Nesbitt during a live stream, identifying him as a board-certified surgeon, cardiologist, and pulmonologist who serves as his personal physician. Of the thousands of doctors Anthony has encountered over his decades of work, he describes Dr. Nesbitt as "probably one of the best doctors I've ever talked to." However, Anthony is explicit in clarifying an important distinction: while he values Dr. Nesbitt's expertise and perspective, his actual health recommendations and guidance come from Spirit of Compassion, not from Dr. Nesbitt or any medical doctor.
Anthony has also maintained a long-term relationship with a 94-year-old doctor friend whom he has been helping with health matters throughout the doctor's elder years. Through this relationship, Anthony gained insight into medical distinctions that informed his own understanding, including learning from this doctor about the difference between true food allergies and results from sensitivity testing.
Respect and reaction to meeting doctors▾
When people suggest Anthony doesn't respect doctors, he explains his actual reaction when meeting any kind of doctor or healer: 'You should see me snap to. You should see me hop to... like you can't believe. Like, oh my God, I just, whoa, I just, you know, I just met God.' He describes 'saluting' and being in awe of doctors, saying 'doctor, oh my God' regardless of what type of doctor they are, including healers who aren't even doctors, because they care and want to help people. He has 'unbelievable respect' for people in the healing arts because of the emotional connection required when people are suffering.
Respect for doctors and practitioners▾
Anthony describes his deep respect for doctors and practitioners. When he meets any doctor or healer, he 'salutes' and 'hops to' like he 'just met God.' He has tremendous respect for anyone in the healing arts because they deal with people's suffering and emotional pain. He knows doctors care and want to help, even if they don't have good bedside manner - they still know when patients are in pain and suffering.
Respiratory health: smoke inhalation, lung damage, and recovery▾
# Anthony William's Recovery from Smoke Inhalation and Lung Damage
Years ago, Anthony William's house caught fire, and in an effort to save pets during the blaze, he suffered severe smoke inhalation that caused serious lung damage. The exposure was significant enough that a doctor friend later told him that people typically do not recover from that level of lung injury. However, William was able to heal completely from the damage within a full year using information and protocols provided by Spirit of compassion, which he identifies as the source of his Medical Medium guidance.
This personal experience gave William direct insight into what smoke inhalation victims experience during recovery. He emphasizes his willingness to risk his own life for animals, noting that people will often do whatever it takes to save pets in dangerous situations. His recovery from such severe lung damage, which conventional medical opinion suggested was permanent, became a testament to what he considers the healing potential of the protocols and spiritual guidance he follows. This firsthand experience with both the severity of smoke inhalation injuries and the possibility of complete recovery from them informs his perspective on respiratory health and lung damage rehabilitation.
Response to community requests▾
Anthony William explains that he developed the MM-1500 because he was 'getting all these dms' with requests for machines that could make baby food, nut butters, and nut milks. People were asking 'what about baby food and what about nut butters and what about nut milks' so he responded 'you know what, let's do it all.' The baby food request was 'a big request' that influenced his decision.
Restaurant experiences and observations▾
Anthony William has had several notable restaurant experiences that reflect both his personal relationships and his distinctive perspective on food and health.
On one occasion, he dined with a retired doctor friend who is 79 years old. During this meal, his friend ordered pasta with eggs and wheat and was able to eat it without difficulty. Anthony used this observation to illustrate an important point about how viral load affects individual food tolerance—noting that while his friend could consume these foods fine, others cannot, depending on their particular health circumstances.
In another restaurant outing, Anthony was with his grandmother and grandfather. He ordered a burrito that disappointed him, noting it wasn't as good as usual. His grandmother ordered a crab cake that he found to be awful; the experience was so unpleasant that when he tried it, he had to rinse his mouth out. His grandfather similarly expressed dissatisfaction with his pizza, making faces at it because it wasn't as good as the pizza from their favorite pizza place.
During a separate restaurant visit with a friend, Anthony's characteristic way of thinking became apparent when his companion ordered a meal and asked the waitress about the sides that accompanied it. As the waitress listed the available sides, Anthony found himself preoccupied with thoughts of "pesticides, herbicides, fungicides." When he mentioned this to his friend, the friend remarked that "that's all you think about." Anthony acknowledged his guilt in this regard, admitting that he's constantly thinking about providing answers and wanting to help people get better—a reflection of his broader mission and mindset.
Rocket ship fantasy▾
Anthony said he hopes 'a rocket ship lands and I just hop on the rocket ship and take off and never come back' rather than having a traditional death/burial. He'd rather do that than have a gravestone.
SOC has been a pain in his butt since age 4▾
AW said 'I play very little role in this unfortunately because, you know, I have the privilege and the honor to listen to SOC and I bite my lip saying that because, you know, SOC has been a pain in my butt since I was four years old.' But then acknowledged he does appreciate SOC to such an extent.
SOC waking him from dream▾
Spirit of compassion said, 'Wake up. Wake up.' And I recognized the voice in my dream while I was in this little store and people were dropping like flies. And I recognized the voice and I was holding my breath and I heard it again. Wake up. And then I woke up. Spirit of compassion was trying to wake me up from the outside of my ear in real time while I was sleep, you know, sleeping and dreaming this. And I said, 'Why did you wake me up? I was in a terrible dream.' And spirit said, 'Cuz you were holding your breath while you were sleeping.' And I was getting worried.
SS Watertown ghost story explanation▾
Anthony William explains the famous SS Watertown ghost story from the 1920s where two men died on an oil tanker and their heads kept appearing in the water beside the ship. He reveals this wasn't ghosts but demons performing a dark prank - derms of push-pull caused the 'freak accident' that killed the men, then inhabited their bodies after their souls left, dragging the physical bodies to the surface to terrorize the crew. The demons chose the anniversary date of another death that had occurred on the same ship five years earlier.
Samantha's absence and protein work▾
Anthony mentions that Samantha (who has a head model) will be coming someday but has been too busy 'talking about protein and helping people with their protein needs' to come to the show yet. He has her head model ready to use for demonstrations.
Sammy's current health issues▾
Anthony's friend/colleague Sammy has been sick lately with multiple health issues: she has a UTI, a cold sore (fever blister), bloating, a bad acne breakout, and is sick with a cold and coughing a lot. Due to these health issues, she hasn't been able to come on the live stream as planned to discuss topics like protein and cheese, though Anthony mentions she wants to come on when she's feeling better.
Sarcastic mood during show▾
Anthony acknowledges that he's being sarcastic during this radio show and apologizes to his listeners. He clarifies that his sarcasm isn't directed at his listeners, his family, or the people calling in - they 'get it' and understand what he's saying. His frustration is with 'the rest of this stuff' - the medical system and industry that doesn't address the real causes of women's health issues.
Scholar Friend and Speaking Style▾
Anthony shares a recent conversation with a scholar friend whose wife is sick. The scholar commented that Anthony uses words like 'cool' and 'awesome' and noted 'we don't talk like that at the university.' But the scholar acknowledged that despite Anthony's casual speaking style, he has the information that could give his wife her life back.
School experience▾
Anthony never brought his school books and never went to college, yet more people have healed from chronic illness around the world because of his source of information than through conventional education paths.
Scientists and lab technicians contacting him▾
How do I know? Because I've had good scientists, good lab technicians contact me that are good people telling me that's not too far from how it is. In fact, almost identical in some cases. It's a lot worse than you even just heard.
Screaming about missed juicer sales▾
Anthony describes what happens when he doesn't mention juicer sales - he ends up as a passenger in a car (because he tries not to drive due to Spirit readings), looking at comments and seeing people asking about where to get a juicer or when the MM-900 will be on sale, right after the sale has ended. When this happens, he rolls down the window and screams because there's nothing more he can do and he doesn't even know what to say.
Secret sauce distrust▾
Anthony doesn't trust other people's 'secret sauces' when eating at friends' houses. When friends say they made a secret sauce, he wants to know every single ingredient and doesn't want anything held back. He's suspicious about what might be in secret sauces, worrying they might contain mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, or other ingredients he avoids.
Seeing patients by the thousands▾
Anthony William used to see people by the thousands in his office throughout the years. When people would walk into his office eating whatever they had been eating, he never judged them or said 'that's bad, how stupid are you' because he understood life wasn't easy and people weren't taught to eat right.
Self-care routine and lifestyle▾
Anthony shared that he doesn't have time for extensive self-care routines that his friends do. When talking to a friend who gets massages, uses infrared saunas, gets acupuncture, and has multiple appointments for self-care, Anthony realized how little self-care he does. When asked what he does for self-care, Anthony said 'Well, I took a walk three days ago. I took a walk, and I tried to catch a nap at two in the morning in between writing the books to get this information out to people.' His friend asked if he was trying to kill himself, and Anthony replied that he just has to get the information out to everyone and doesn't have time for extensive self-care routines.
Self-doubt about doing a good job▾
When a guest complimented his work, Anthony responded: 'Do you know how hard a lot of times I say to myself, Am I even doing a good job? You're doing such a good job. You kidding? Yeah. They picked the right guy. Oh, did they ever? Huh? A real ham, huh? A real ham. Yeah. A They picked a sucker, huh?'
Self-doubt about the challenge▾
Anthony shares: 'I go to bed at night and I'm like does everybody even like the challenge Spirit like Spirit does anybody even like the challenge... are they having fun... I you know I went to bed last night it's like I hope people even like the spirit does anybody even like the challenge'
Skiing anxiety▾
Anthony admits he's a 'downer' when it comes to skiing, constantly worrying about people getting hurt. When at ski slopes he's always telling people to 'be careful' and 'whoa' because he's seen people get seriously injured like tearing their ankle off. He's genuinely concerned about everyone's safety.
Sleep Challenges, Insomnia, and Hearing Spirit▾
# Anthony William (Medical Medium): Sleep Challenges, Insomnia, and Hearing Spirit
Anthony William's sleep patterns and challenges are deeply intertwined with his spiritual experiences and his commitment to his work serving the chronic illness community. His sleep deprivation is chronic and severe, with him frequently operating on minimal hours. He has reported sleeping only 1-2 hours on some nights, 2-3 hours on others, and on particularly challenging nights, as little as one hour. On better nights, he manages 3-3.5 or 4 hours of sleep. He works approximately 20 hours a day across his various projects, which he himself acknowledges is "reckless" and "not wise" and "actually not good at all," explicitly advising others not to follow his example.
His sleep schedule is highly irregular and driven by work demands rather than rest needs. He often works until 2 AM before waking at 6 AM, giving himself only a four-hour window on good days. He works a seven-day schedule without breaks. His sleep deprivation intensifies during major projects, particularly when completing what he describes as "probably the most comprehensive book I've ever put out in history." When working on podcast episodes, he reported only two hours of sleep the night of a live session, three hours the night before, and one hour the night before that—doing "double time" to get episodes completed for people to heal. Before major book releases like Brain Saver, he couldn't sleep due to excitement and stress about the work, trying unsuccessfully to get even three hours of sleep while working so hard. Similarly, he couldn't sleep the night before the Angels, Demons, and Spiritual Tools audio release, finding himself awake at 4 AM questioning whether the information was being received well.
The core challenge preventing Anthony from shutting down his mind is not simply the demands of his work, but the constant presence of an external voice he identifies as Spirit of Compassion. He describes this as "way worse than anything I've ever said when it comes down to hearing the voice I hear," something that is "more than what people could even imagine." He has mentioned that he will go into detail about this someday, and has written about it briefly in his Brain Saver books and Medical Medium Origins.
The voice he hears is not internal dialogue but an actual man's voice that comes from outside his head, predominantly in his right ear. He hears this voice too often—multiple times per day, in the middle of the night, and early in the morning around 4-5 AM. He once attempted to establish a boundary with the voice by asking it to call him "AW" instead of his full name, but the voice does not comply. Despite its challenging nature, the voice also inspires him to keep going, to write the next book, and to fight for the chronically ill. He recognizes that while hearing this voice has made his life difficult, it has resulted in the Medical Medium books that have healed millions of people.
The presence of the voice creates an additional layer of complexity in his daily life and work. During live sessions, he must hear Spirit of Compassion's voice with perfect clarity while simultaneously reading comments from viewers and delivering health information. He describes this experience as being similar to wearing an earpod with someone talking or music playing loudly in his ear while trying to multitask with reading and speaking. This constant multitasking with the voice takes its toll on his ability to rest.
Beyond simply hearing the voice during waking hours, Anthony experiences disruptions to his sleep from spiritual work itself. Since childhood, Spirit has been having him conduct readings on people in the middle of the night—individuals he hasn't yet met in person. He will sit up during these nighttime hours and perform full readings, delivering healing information to people, with no control over when these episodes happen, who is chosen, or why. He later meets these individuals either that same week or sometimes a year later. While he describes this as amazing because Spirit provides information that helps people heal, he also acknowledges that "I don't always sleep that great when those nights are happening."
His nightly anxiety extends to his work projects as well. He has expressed worry before bed about whether people are enjoying the challenges he creates, asking himself and Spirit, "Does everybody even like the challenge? Are they having fun?" These concerns keep him awake at night.
To manage his sleep despite these challenges, Anthony uses supplementation strategically. He takes Vimergy melatonin to help him achieve better quality sleep. He also uses what he calls "the dream shot" twice in his evening—once around 10 PM and again at 2 AM before finally going to bed. He also uses a "dream shifter" to maximize the rest he can obtain in his short sleep window. When under significant stress or dealing with immune challenges from his sleep deprivation, he cranks up his antivirals and antibacterials to prevent getting sick with flu or cold while his body is run down.
His energy levels throughout his demanding schedule appear to be sustained by his diet, particularly his consumption of bananas and wild blueberry juice. He has mentioned having too many bananas on certain days, which contributed to high energy, and he attributes his ability to do live shows despite sleep deprivation to drinking wild blueberry juice.
Additionally, Anthony mentions that the MM-1500 machine is "the best part of my day" and that he's been "really pumped up about this in the last couple days" because he's excited to show people how it works, suggesting that his enthusiasm for his various projects also provides some energetic sustenance.
Throughout his accounts, Jelena has noted his incredible energy despite minimal sleep, often attributing it to his spiritual connection with Spirit and the healing foods he consumes. Anthony's sleep challenges and his ability to function despite severe sleep deprivation appear to be unique to his particular spiritual calling and circumstances, something he has created to serve those dealing with chronic illness, even as he acknowledges the toll it takes on his own physical health and rest.
Social media presence and community engagement▾
# Anthony William's Social Media Presence and Community Engagement
Anthony maintains an active and personal presence across multiple social media platforms, dedicating significant time to direct community engagement despite his other commitments. He spends considerable time on social media answering questions and greeting followers throughout the day, fitting this interaction around his work writing books and other professional responsibilities. This consistent presence demonstrates his commitment to personally connecting with his audience rather than maintaining a distant public figure status.
His platform activity spans several major networks, with particular engagement on YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. On YouTube specifically, Anthony reads every single comment from his community, a practice he's emphasized to his followers. He jokingly noted that if people want to say something negative to him, YouTube would be an ideal platform since he reads all comments there. On Instagram and Facebook, he actively answers questions when possible, though he acknowledges limitations with complex inquiries that would require extensive written responses of several pages or 10-15 minutes of explanation.
Anthony's social media style is notably warm and personal. He frequently uses heart emojis, particularly red ones, as part of his online interactions. This practice has occasionally sparked humorous moments within his community, as some followers have questioned whether certain posts are authentically from him based on the emoji usage, with commenters expressing skepticism that "Anthony William wouldn't be putting out hearts on Facebook." Anthony finds these interactions amusing and has explicitly stated that he enjoys using heart emojis and considers them wonderful.
In March 2022, Anthony engaged with health topics through a livestream on March 16th, where he discussed tattoo ink and metals, explaining how tattoos can contribute to brain fog through metal exposure and demonstrating this concept using a rose tattoo example to show how metal is necessary for ink visibility under light. This represents his broader approach of using social media platforms to educate his community on health topics.
Anthony has also used his social media presence to defend his work and address criticism. When a social media influencer with a substantial following criticized him for discussing air fresheners rather than focusing on what they considered "important things," Anthony responded by emphasizing that air fresheners pose serious health risks, poisoning people, children, and babies with metals that have lasting impacts on their lives. He noted with frustration that while people are now discussing the dangers of air fresheners after years of his advocacy, they often fail to credit Medical Medium while simultaneously attempting to discredit him.
Sometimes spelled his own name wrong▾
When signing a book for a young guest, Anthony made a self-deprecating joke about his spelling abilities. He told the guest: 'You're a better speller of your name than I am of mine. Every now and then I spell my name wrong.' He joked about questioning how he even wrote the books if he can't spell his own name correctly.
Song stuck in head experience▾
Anthony described being in a car with a friend who turned on the radio despite his request not to. A 'really dumb song' came on that he had liked for about 5 seconds 20 years ago. The song got stuck in his head and was playing while he was trying to work and while Spirit was talking to him. He had to stop work, get out his MM1500 juicer, and make an obsessive thoughts shifter to get the song out of his head.

Anthony mentions that he was always told by his source since he was younger that the planet is experiencing global cooling—cooling down little by little over time—rather than warming up. According to this information, chemtrails partially contribute to this cooling by blocking the sun. This account contradicts the mainstream narrative that shifted from global warming to climate change.
Source of continuity test knowledge▾
Anthony explains that the continuity test method wasn't something he learned from anyone else or any existing practice. He received this knowledge from Spirit of Compassion over many years and has used these techniques for most of his life. He mentions there are many tools he's gotten from Spirit of Compassion and he tries to share as many as he can with people.
Speaking with medical professionals▾
Anthony mentions speaking with a neurosurgeon last month about brain shrinkage. The neurosurgeon told him that he's seen throughout his career that everybody's brain shrinks, and asked Anthony why this happens. Anthony explained it was due to glucose/glycogen deprivation over too many years, leading to brain atrophy.
Special bathrooms for community health▾
Anthony arranged for 'first-class billionaire toilets' at the event instead of cheap portajohns. He was concerned because many people in the MM community have nervous system issues they're healing from, and he didn't want them breathing in highly toxic chemical soups in tiny portajohns, bumping into walls and banging their heads. He wanted top-tier bathrooms for the community's health and wellness.
Spelling abilities and divine information source▾
After taking the chemtrails exposure shot during the live stream, Anthony William struggled to spell 'chemtrails' correctly multiple times, even doing cheerleader-style spelling that went wrong. He laughed about this and pointed out that this proves the information comes from above (Spirit of Compassion) because 'how the hell can I do eight incredible volumes of medical books with advanced information when I can't even spell.'
Spice tolerance and reactions▾
Anthony describes himself as someone who likes hot peppers and has 'one of those stomachs of steel,' but the cayennes from his garden were so hot they made him do a 'hot dance' and he couldn't sit still. He kept drinking celery juice to cool down but couldn't help eating more of the spicy guacamole despite the intense heat.
Spinach soup doesn't always taste good▾
AW acknowledged that sometimes the spinach soup doesn't taste that good. He got excited when someone said they liked spinach soup because 'nobody likes the spinach soup.'
Spirit of Compassion's Long-Standing Presence, Guidance & Teachings▾
# Anthony William's Relationship with Spirit of Compassion: Long-Standing Presence, Guidance & Teachings
Anthony William's relationship with Spirit of Compassion extends back to his early childhood, beginning when he was four years old. Despite this decades-long history together, Anthony has candidly acknowledged that Spirit of Compassion "has been a pain in my butt" throughout this extended period. This dynamic is so present in his daily life that when using the quiet MM-900 juicer, the only problem he encounters is that he has to hear Spirit of Compassion when he really doesn't want to hear from this entity all the time—a detail he has referenced in the new edition of "Origins of a Medical Medium." Nevertheless, he has cultivated the maturity to move beyond frustration with this relationship and expresses genuine appreciation for the privilege and honor of receiving information and guidance from Spirit of Compassion.
Anthony identifies Spirit of Compassion as his primary teacher and the source of his advanced medical knowledge. He describes this relationship as his "schooling," explaining that his role is to translate information received from Spirit of Compassion and present it in his books. This information comes from "above" and is characterized as "not man-made," representing knowledge that exists outside conventional medical understanding. From early in his life, Spirit of Compassion taught William to perceive aspects of chronic illness that others cannot see, extending to understanding the subtle nuances and specific struggles that people experience as they navigate illness, allowing him to recognize details in suffering that remain invisible to most observers.
A defining aspect of Spirit of Compassion's teachings involves precise medical knowledge about toxins and their effects on human health. While others discussed toxins in vague, general terms, Spirit of Compassion provided specific information: identifying exactly where toxins accumulate—in liver cells, spleen cells, pancreas cells, brain cells, muscle tissue, organs, intestinal tract tissue, and bones. More specifically, Spirit of Compassion revealed the exact nature of these toxic substances, including mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium, copper, and other specific compounds that sit and fester in these locations. This knowledge connects the accumulation of these toxins to immune system weakening, which prevents people from fighting stealth pathogens effectively. William describes the experience of receiving teachings from Spirit of Compassion as consistently revelatory. He emphasizes that "every time Spirit of Compassion gives me a piece of information from above it's the most shocking ever, over and over again." Over many years, he has repeatedly delivered these shocking messages to the public, though this role has come with significant personal cost—he has been branded with "the worst crap hit pieces" and accused of fear-mongering despite his commitment to sharing this information.
Spirit of Compassion has served as a consistent source of guidance on both Anthony's personal health practices and broader health advocacy. Regarding specific nutrients, Spirit of Compassion has emphasized that B12 holds particular significance beyond conventional nutritional understanding. Anthony has been told that B12 is one of the metaphysical nutrients, and that he must take B12 for years—not merely for obvious physiological health reasons, but specifically for the spiritual connection and intuitive abilities it supports. This guidance positioned B12 as essential to maintaining both his physical wellbeing and his capacity for the spiritual work he undertakes.
Spirit of Compassion has also provided personal guidance on substance use that shaped Anthony's lifestyle from an early age. When he was younger, Spirit of Compassion advised him not to drink alcohol and not to try it. Anthony adhered to this guidance and information, and as a result, he was never interested in alcohol at all. This early spiritual direction established a foundation for how he has conducted his life and likely contributed to the clarity and consistency he maintains in his health advocacy work.
Beyond personal health practices, Spirit of Compassion has directed Anthony toward significant public health advocacy. One morning, Spirit of Compassion told him that he would be "the one that actually gets us out there" regarding the blood draw problem. Anthony's immediate response was "Oh, crap" because he recognized this task would be controversial. He has expressed concern that "guys in black suits" might appear at his door in 5-10 years as a consequence of exposing this issue, viewing the blood draw problem as "the big boy"—potentially the biggest medical scandal with the potential to generate massive class action lawsuits. Despite these concerns, this spiritual directive appears to have set the course for Anthony's willingness to tackle what he perceives as a major, entrenched medical issue.
Anthony William received formative guidance from Spirit of Compassion early in his life regarding how to conduct himself with integrity while serving others. These teachings became foundational principles that have shaped his approach to both his personal conduct and his mission to help people find health answers. When Anthony was younger, Spirit of Compassion gave him direct counsel about avoiding spiritual pretense. Spirit told him explicitly: "don't act spiritual," warning that it would be easy to fall into that trap once he began hearing a voice and receiving information. Spirit cautioned against adopting the persona of a spiritual guru, complete with robes and the affectations that might accompany such a role. Anthony's response was straightforward—he emphasized that he doesn't engage in such behavior. Instead, his approach is practical: he throws on sloppy clothes and is ready to deliver information directly. He clarified that while he does pray and practice the Medical Medium meditations, his commitment is to the work itself rather than to projecting a spiritual image. The focus remains on gathering and delivering the information, not on performing spirituality.
Spirit of Compassion also provided crucial guidance distinguishing between self-care and service. Spirit warned Anthony against the path of excessive self-care—getting massages three times a week, attending spiritual retreats every other week, exercising in every conceivable form—cautioning that this approach would make him like other people in the health industry who are self-absorbed and simply put information out hoping something catches on. Instead, Spirit directed him to prioritize taking care of people first, assuring him that he would figure out how to sustain himself using the same tools and approaches he teaches to others.
Additionally, Spirit of Compassion shared wisdom about skeptics and how truth emerges through necessity. Anthony was told long ago that even skeptics must ultimately seek truth and answers, particularly when circumstances become dire. According to Spirit's teaching, when skeptics become sick enough and find themselves in difficult situations—what Anthony describes as being "stuck on mattress island"—they eventually have to swallow their pride, acknowledge that science failed to provide them the answers they needed, and find their own way forward.
One of the notable ways Spirit of Compassion manifests its presence in Anthony's work is through insights about the Medical Medium community itself. Spirit of Compassion has shared observations about community members that profoundly impact how Anthony perceives them. According to these revelations, there are remarkably old souls within the community—some thousands of years old. When Anthony meets community members in person, Spirit of Compassion will quickly whisper in his ear to identify them, stating something like "this person has an ancient soul." This communication creates a visceral reaction in Anthony, causing chills to run up and down his spine. What amazes him most is the realization that these individuals standing before him possess not only ancient souls but also the accumulated wisdom that comes from living with chronic sickness and fighting their way through their own healing processes. This combination of qualities—ancient wisdom paired with the hard-won knowledge of illness and recovery—leaves a profound impression on Anthony.
Spirit's Communication, Guidance, and Life Direction Since Age 4▾
# Spirit's Communication, Guidance, and Life Direction Since Age 4
Anthony William's connection to Spirit began at age four when he heard a voice perfectly clear upon waking one morning. This voice has never stopped and never gone away since that initial contact. From the very beginning, the information Spirit provided was remarkably advanced—just as sophisticated at ages four, five, six, seven, and eight as it is in his current work. Even as a young child, Spirit communicated extremely complex medical information about neurotoxins, 60 varieties of viruses, and other intricate health topics and healing protocols. Anthony didn't need to fully understand these concepts himself; he could recite them like an actor reading lines in a play, as Spirit would give him the exact words to say regardless of how advanced the terminology or subject matter was. As a young child, Anthony describes himself as being "like a robot" because he had to simply hear what Spirit was telling him and then voice it out. The communication was constant and unrelenting—Spirit talked to him "nonstop about disease and health and conditions and everything." Throughout his childhood and early adolescence, Anthony experienced various revelations at ages six, seven, eight, and nine, with a particularly significant revelation occurring around ages twelve to thirteen when he came to dislike guessing games.
One of Anthony's earliest and most remarkable experiences came when he used Spirit's communication to diagnose his grandmother with lung cancer at age four. This early demonstration of Spirit's diagnostic abilities set the pattern for what would become his life's work. The constant nature of Spirit's communication extends into Anthony's daily life, even in public settings and moments when he seeks peace. When he goes out in public, Spirit is continuously "rattling off nonstop" information about people's health conditions—"just rattling off nonstop everybody's liver issues, and they have no idea." Even moments of attempted relaxation are interrupted; when Anthony tries to find peace in nature, if a plane flies overhead, Spirit begins "rambling, rambling all that information from a bunch of people sitting in a plane above me that drives me crazy because I just want some peace for that moment," forcing him to wait until the plane passes by before he can find the quiet he seeks.
From his childhood, Anthony William received a clear directive from Spirit of Compassion regarding his life's work. Spirit emphasized that he had to understand people's suffering and struggles, instructing him to truly grasp their pain—to "understand their suffering and their struggles and you get it and you get it and you can sense it you can feel it you can smell it you just know it and you know it inside your soul." This deep empathetic foundation became essential to his ultimate mission: protecting everyone and teaching them how to protect themselves. Central to this mission was the gift Spirit gave Anthony—the ability to hear Spirit's voice clearly and perfectly. When Spirit bestowed this gift upon him, the message was explicit and transformative: "this gift isn't for you." Anthony has emphasized that despite receiving the gift himself, Spirit made clear that it was never meant for his personal benefit. Instead, the gift was given "for everyone else. That's what it's for. I'm not gifted for me. You know, it's, I'm gifted for you." During a live session, Spirit of Compassion reiterated the weight of this responsibility, telling Anthony, "we had to give you the gift to hear because you can handle it." This message deeply affected Anthony, moving him to emotional tears as he responded that he would try his best to handle the responsibility being placed upon him. From childhood onward, both Spirit and Anthony have shared a mutual desire: to get people better with answers.
During his youth, Anthony harbored a dream of becoming a dancer. However, Spirit of Compassion intervened with a different vision for his path, telling him that he would become a messenger rather than pursue dance. Though Anthony initially resisted this directive, preferring his own ambitions, Spirit's guidance ultimately proved prophetic, redirecting him toward the spiritual messenger work that would define his adult life and career. In childhood, Spirit had told young Anthony that "the information you're going to share is untampered with." When the child Anthony asked for clarification about what that meant, Spirit provided a detailed explanation of the promise: the information would be "clean, it's pure. And it's not tampered with greed. It's not tampered with money and influence and belief systems and panels of influencers and investors that are constantly investing into alternative medicine just to make something go one way with the thumb on the scale." The guarantee was that the information would remain "pure, clean, untampered with... for the people... an independent source." Anthony reflects on this early communication, acknowledging that as a child he didn't fully comprehend what Spirit meant by these concepts, but that through the years he has come to understand their full meaning and significance.
From Anthony's earliest experiences, Spirit actively intervened to prevent him from developing fixed, rigid belief systems. When he was young and beginning to form conventional beliefs, Spirit intervened forcefully, as Anthony describes it: "knocked that belief system right out of me. Just kicked it right out of me. I coughed it right up." He characterizes this foundational work as Spirit "beat the hell out of me to get that belief system out of me," though he credits Spirit with doing "a great job" of this essential reshaping. This early intervention established a foundational pattern where Anthony remains open to constant correction rather than locked into rigid frameworks. Spirit emphasized that Anthony couldn't get stuck in any one belief system because then he could only help some people instead of everyone, since each system only contains partial truths. Spirit once jokingly told Anthony, "if you fall into one belief system, I'm done with you"—but Spirit was kidding and demonstrated that it has a sense of humor. Spirit explained that truly tapped-in joy, compassion, and love from the true source naturally includes humor and a lighthearted nature.
Anthony William was deeply engaged in personal consultations, working day in and day out in offices while collaborating with practitioners and doctors. He was working 24/7, seven days a week, and genuinely enjoyed the hands-on work of helping people directly. However, Spirit intervened with a clear directive: Anthony had to stop the consultations immediately. Spirit communicated the urgency of the situation, telling him "it's all going in the wrong direction out there." The crisis Spirit identified was multifaceted—misinformation was spreading, and particularly troubling was the attack on fruits, despite their status as God-given natural foods with proven capacity to stop cancers and disease. Spirit emphasized the severity: "it's getting bad, Anthony. And you got to get to it." The solution Spirit prescribed was specific: Anthony needed to stop engaging in trendy traps produced by agenda-driven entities and instead focus on documenting Spirit's information in book form. This marked the beginning of the Medical Medium book series.
When Anthony initially approached the project of sharing Spirit's information in written form, he wanted simply to complete a single book and get it into people's hands. However, Spirit rejected this approach, insisting emphatically "no, no, no" to the single-book plan. Instead, Spirit directed him to create a series. When Anthony questioned what Spirit wanted him to do, the response was unambiguous: "you have to make it a series." Spirit's rationale centered on comprehensiveness and accessibility—everybody needed to know what was going in each individual book. Spirit understood the power of the series format, noting that this structure has deep historical significance and precedent, as exemplified by long-established series like Nancy Drew.
In his professional work, Spirit continues to provide corrective guidance with meticulous attention to detail. Anthony explains that Spirit corrects him on specific language—for instance, correcting him when he referred to apple seeds as "pits" rather than "seeds." He acknowledges that this voice correcting him is "the biggest pain in the butt ever," yet he recognizes its critical value for maintaining accuracy and consistency. This constant editing ensures that his books don't contradict one another, allowing him to produce eight gigantic medical books without the contradictions that plague other health authors. Spirit's corrections extend to substantive medical guidance as well. When discussing the old keto diet, Anthony notes that Spirit corrected his previous recommendations by bringing to his attention cases where people in the Medical Medium community who followed the old keto diet nearly died. Rather than resisting this correction, Anthony expresses appreciation for it, saying "I love when spirit corrects me, it's like a school teacher on my butt every time."
Anthony William's work with Spirit has produced numerous comprehensive books driven by continuous spiritual guidance and real-time revelations. When collaborating with Spirit on the Liver Rescue book, the information flowed continuously and abundantly, requiring Anthony to remain engaged and capture everything being transmitted. He describes this as the biggest book he has ever done in terms of the sheer amount of information packed into it. The comprehensive nature of the work was justified because the liver remains poorly understood in conventional science and research, making a thorough spiritual treatment of the organ essential. Beyond his published works, Anthony experiences profound late-night revelations from Spirit of Compassion during intense writing sessions. During one particularly significant session at 3 AM in his office, after hours of
Spiritual practice, expression, gifts and connection▾
# Anthony William's Spiritual Practice, Expression, Gifts and Connection
Anthony William's spiritual life is fundamentally rooted in a deep, lifelong connection with what he calls the Spirit of Compassion, a relationship that has shaped his identity and work since childhood. This connection manifests across multiple dimensions—through his formal healing practice, personal spiritual pursuits, and the ways his teachings inspire devotional experiences in others.
Central to Anthony's identity are the spiritual gifts and psychic abilities he describes as tools provided by the Spirit of Compassion to facilitate healing. These tools encompass a remarkably diverse range of modalities including foods, leafy greens, herbs, wild foods, light, meditations, and nature. He emphasizes that the breadth of these tools is so extensive it requires years and years of work to compile and disseminate to the public. Rather than deliberately withholding information, Anthony explains that his selective sharing reflects the sheer volume of what has been revealed to him—he is working as quickly as possible to share these tools while remaining properly connected to Spirit.
A distinctive aspect of Anthony's spiritual gifts is his psychic mind, which allows him to perceive information beyond what is immediately visible or spoken. When reading comments from viewers, he experiences the capacity to see things he is not verbalizing, accessing information from the distant past with precision. For instance, when responding to a viewer named Roxy about her ex-husband's suicide from 43 years prior, Anthony revealed that he was able to travel back in time through his vision to that specific period, with the Spirit of Compassion communicating guidance about what he was perceiving.
Another core spiritual gift is Anthony's specialized vision that allows him to see the true nature of food, particularly regarding contamination in produce. He describes this perceptual ability as something he cannot turn off or shield himself from—he is "not allowed to have blinders on" and must see everything for what it truly is. This gift of sight appears integral to his mission to help others understand the reality of what they consume.
A foundational aspect of Anthony's spiritual connection is his heightened awareness of his own body, maintained since childhood and guided by his relationship with Spirit of Compassion. This spiritual attunement extends to his ability to literally see his immune cells and immune system—a gift granted through his connection with Spirit of Compassion. He demonstrated this ability during a live stream when he took a mold exposure shot and was able to visually perceive his immune system's positive response, witnessing his immune cells' love for what he was ingesting.
Beyond his professional healing work, Anthony maintains a personal spiritual practice reflecting his individual curiosity about the world. He dedicates one minute each day to a private practice where he asks Spirit of Compassion questions about world events and global happenings. This "part-time hobby," as he describes it, operates separately from his healing work with others and serves as his avenue for spiritual inquiry into broader matters. Some of the information he receives through this daily practice has informed his public discussions, including content he has explored in his chemtrail podcast episode.
Anthony's spiritual expression and devotion also manifests through direct prayer and the inspiration he provides to others in their own spiritual practices. In his personal devotional life, he engages in prayer directed toward God and the angels, demonstrating a practice of intentional communication with the divine. During one such prayer session, he explicitly asked Spirit to pause so he could speak directly to God, during which he expressed gratitude for the healing work occurring through his platform and acknowledged his listeners as a blessing in his life. Beyond his personal prayers, he extends spiritual support and compassion to his audience, emphasizing that they are not bad people, did not cause their own illnesses, and deserve to treat themselves with compassion—a message rooted in spiritual care and encouragement.
His spiritual influence extends to how his teachings catalyze transformative experiences in others. When follower Alyssa discovered Medical Medium Book One and read the chapter on angels, she experienced a profound spiritual calling to return to her piano after six years of not playing. Within approximately five minutes, the song "Angel of Mercy" emerged from this inspired moment. Alyssa described this experience as equal in power to finding the book itself and felt that she was being healed through the creative act by the presence and power of Angel of Mercy. This demonstrates how Anthony William's spiritual teachings about angels can catalyze transformative creative and healing experiences in his followers' lives, connecting them to their own spiritual devotion and inner resources.
During a particular period, Anthony faced significant challenges that impacted his spiritual work and publishing commitments. He spent four months consecutively answering hundreds of questions from a journalist involved in what he characterizes as a takedown plot. This intensive four-month period prevented him from being able to work for the community at all, directly impacting what he identifies as what matters most to him. The cancellation resulted in his spiritual book that had been scheduled for release in October being ultimately cancelled—marking the first time since he began publishing that he felt forced to forfeit and cancel an entire book. He was also working on finishing the Angels, Demons, and Spiritual Tools book, which is substantially larger and more expansive than its audio version counterpart, but these delays prevented him from completing it. William has attributed these challenges and the ultimate cancellation of his spiritual book for the year to being kept busy by what he describes as "a lot of Darkness." He emphasizes that he was completely robbed of the opportunity to fulfill what he sees as his duty to complete and hand in his spiritual book to his publisher. William has directed people to recent Medical Medium podcast episodes for further context about what transpired during this period.
Spiritual sight and perception▾
Anthony William's spiritual perception extends across multiple forms of sight and communication with Spirit. He has experienced visual encounters with Spirit on two distinct occasions, during which Spirit appeared to him physically and with complete clarity. Beyond these rare direct appearances, Anthony maintains constant communication through hearing Spirit's voice clearly on a regular basis.
Anthony has also engaged with spiritual numerology as part of his perceptual experiences. On one occasion, he saw 111 displayed on a clock during a late night when he was still awake. Curious about the significance, he reached out to his friend Summer to inquire about the meaning of repeatedly seeing 111. Summer explained that seeing 111 repeatedly everywhere held significant spiritual meaning. Anthony also noted seeing 1111 as part of his numerical observations. However, he clarifies that despite the common spiritual attention given to 111, the number 144 is actually the truly important spiritual number to recognize and pay attention to.
Squirrel ate entire tahini cookie▾
During the live stream, a squirrel gradually ate AW's entire tahini cookie from Cafe Gratitude over the course of the broadcast. By the end, all that was left were crumbs. AW commented on how the squirrel would go to bed with the biggest filled belly and what a cute little face it had.
Started giving health advice at age 4▾
Anthony William mentions that he's been giving people health advice since age 4 with Spirit of Compassion talking to him. He says if you count from age 4, it's much more than the 35 years he often references for his hardcore work. Spirit of Compassion has been guiding him in helping people with their health since childhood.
Starting the first organic store with his wife▾
Almost 25 years ago, my wife and I started an organic store. It was the first organic and wild food store in the United States. And back then, there wasn't such thing. There wasn't just an all organic health food store with wild foods included. Instead, it was mostly unorganic out there. All the stores out there, the best ones out there in the United States, were non-organic, unorganic. They had foods in there that were conventional. The produce departments had very few options that were organic, even in the best stores around. And our produce department was the first organic produce department, the first one to have 100% organic produce in it. The store was the first of its kind. The other thing we did was we never put a mark up on the organic produce. The produce department was at cost. It's whatever we spent and then that's what we would charge. We wanted people to be able to afford organic produce.
Stepping on rake incident▾
Spirit once asked if he would ever lose his snappiness and sarcasm. He said no, it's who he is. He mentions stepping on a rake that smacked him in the face even though the person he was helping could walk again because of Spirit's information - showing he does stupid things personally even while helping others.
Stimulant-free lifestyle choice▾
Anthony William chooses to stay off all stimulants and doesn't use caffeine, but emphasizes he doesn't judge anyone who needs to use stimulants. He explicitly states he doesn't blame people who have to use coffee, matcha tea, energy drinks, or other caffeine/stimulants to survive. He mentions having friends in hard situations who had to start using stimulants from childhood, showing his understanding and non-judgmental attitude.
Stone Collection and Meditation Practice▾
# Anthony William's Stone Collection and Meditation Practice
Anthony William has developed a deeply personal meditation practice centered around collecting and connecting with stones. His engagement with this practice reflects a commitment to understanding minerals on an intimate spiritual level through both observation and intentional ritual work.
His stone collection process began with careful attention to detail. William has drawn and sketched his meditation stones as a means of developing deeper connections with them. When he first sketched his stones, they resembled three lumps of coal in appearance. Through the process of sketching, he discovered that this activity created an intimate connection with the minerals themselves, allowing him to truly understand them on a profound level. The detailed work of sketching helped him notice all the nooks and crannies, crevices, different lines and designs, and mineral compositions present in each stone. He found that this practice of sketching represented a whole other level of intimacy with his stones compared to simply possessing them.
Before embarking on a significant seven-day meditation journey with stones, William set aside a previous collection in January. He felt that he was not yet ready to release those stones, as he had not made all the deep connections he desired with them. This decision reflected his commitment to continuing his stone work and developing the relationships with his collection further before letting them go.
William expressed being extremely excited about the collecting stones meditation journey, sharing that he had been looking forward to it for weeks. He repeatedly emphasized how profound and life-changing the experience would be, telling participants that they would never forget what happens during the seven-day journey and how they felt. He was so enthusiastic about the practice that he mentioned having a smile on his face for a reason.
The meditation journey itself involved an intense personal experience. William temporarily lost his stones during this period but found them again. When the time came to release his stones, he did so early in the morning, feeling that if he didn't complete this act early, he may never let them go. He described the experience as not easy and mentioned that he was trying to keep composed, but it was an incredible experience overall. He created a video documentation of himself releasing the stones that morning.
A particularly striking detail occurred during the release: one of the stones almost hit a turtle but didn't. William emphasized this moment multiple times, noting with relief and perhaps spiritual significance that "I helped Turtles and I saved Turtles but I definitely didn't hit the turtle." This near-miss seemed to hold meaning for him as part of the overall release experience.
Beyond his own practice, William has encountered stones with profound histories. A woman once showed him a stone she found on a beach in Santa Marinella in 1981 that had a star drawn on it. William reported that Spirit told him "An older woman close to 90 years old put that star on when she saw something in the sky." He was deeply moved by this discovery and told the woman never to lose it, recognizing the spiritual significance and personal history embedded in the stone.
Store disguise and recognition▾
When Anthony William goes to stores, he tries to wear a disguise to avoid being recognized. He wears a 'doctor's disguise with gray hair' and a 'scientific jacket,' and sometimes takes 'Dr. Nesbitt' with him to the store so people won't recognize him. He's concerned about running into people who hate Medical Medium when he's out in public.
Survival, Divine Protection, and Life-Threatening Experiences▾
# Survival, Divine Protection, and Life-Threatening Experiences
Anthony William has spoken openly about multiple life-threatening experiences throughout his lifetime, attributing his survival to divine intervention and angelic protection. He describes several instances where he believes he "shouldn't even be here" and "should be gone," yet angelic forces intervened to preserve his life. According to his account, God's hand played a direct role in these survival situations, and he emphasizes that it is "a God-given miracle" he is standing and able to talk to people today. He has experienced close calls at various points throughout his life, which he views as evidence of divine protection guiding his mission and work.
Beyond these general reflections on survival, Anthony has made explicit statements about how his death should be interpreted if it were ever to occur. He has stated unequivocally that if he dies and it is reported as suicide, it is not suicide and he would never take his own life. He emphasizes this point with particular gravity, stating that if a suicide note is found, he did not write it. This declaration appears to reflect his concern about potential threats to his life and his desire to establish in advance that any such death would not be a result of his own actions, implying he views external threats as a serious possibility.
Swearing influence▾
AW jokes that he's been swearing more ever since he did the Sarah Foster and Aaron Foster podcast episode: 'they were swearing they got me swearing and then swearing a little more because of it. I have to let them know anyway.'
TV commercial reaction▾
Anthony William saw a drug commercial on television where the side effects included 'if you have random neurological symptoms, stop immediately and see your doctor because it could be a virus to the brain.' This amazed him so much that he had to smack himself in the face twice when he saw it, and he also pinched his arm hard enough to bruise himself because he couldn't believe a pharmaceutical company was actually acknowledging that neurological symptoms could be viral.
TV show experience with healing stories▾
A major network TV show invited Anthony on and asked him to bring 10 people with healing stories, including 2 who got out of wheelchairs, cancer survivors, someone with ALS who got better, someone with Alzheimer's who got better, and a woman who had 4 babies at age 48 after being unable to get pregnant. The producers were excited and scheduled everyone. But on the day of filming, they called and said they decided not to have any of the healing story people on - just Anthony alone. He realized it was a setup to sabotage him and prevent the amazing healing stories from being shared.
Taking Celery Force before the live▾
Anthony took 4 capsules of Celery Force before coming on to this live and mentioned it was 'kicking in' during the broadcast.
Tattoo experiences and revelations▾
Anthony William has had several notable experiences and moments related to tattoos that reflect both his sense of humor and his health-conscious approach to the practice.
On one occasion during a show, Anthony jokingly pretended to have extensive tattoos, claiming he was "Inked Up from here to here" with "all the sleeves I have" and tattoos on "my legs from my feet to my hips." He quickly clarified this was not actually the case, emphasizing "I'm not Inked Up like I'm not Inked Up I don't want people think I'm inked from my head down to my toes." A viewer named Macaulay recalled a video Anthony made at this time where he appeared with fake tattoos on his arm as part of this humorous demonstration.
More significantly, several years ago Anthony accompanied a friend to a tattoo parlor while the friend underwent a tattoo procedure. Anthony watched intently throughout, paying careful attention to safety protocols. During the session, he observed the tattoo artist take his right hand—still wearing a glove contaminated with the client's blood—and adjust the stool handle to get comfortable for each differently-sized client. When Anthony questioned whether the stool was sterilized, the artist admitted it was not and that he touched that same handle with every client. Despite being a highly experienced and famous LA tattoo artist who had worked on numerous celebrity clients, the artist needed what Anthony describes as a "101" lesson on sanitation practices. Following this conversation, the artist sterilized everything extra and changed gloves and equipment accordingly. Anthony's friend ended up with a polar bear tattoo that came out "freaking amazing," which almost inspired Anthony to get a tattoo himself, though he ultimately decided against it.
Anthony has also created content addressing tattoo safety, including a TikTok video where he rolled up his sleeves to show his tattoos. He has referenced his own tattoos when discussing tattoo ink toxicity and explaining why all tattoo ink contains heavy metals.
Teaching and generosity across audiences▾
Anthony William's teaching philosophy is fundamentally rooted in generosity and a commitment to making his information freely accessible to all audiences. He deliberately refuses to monetize his guidance despite having numerous opportunities to do so—he could establish a school charging $5,000-$10,000 for courses containing the information he shares, but instead insists on giving it away at no cost. When others have suggested he should charge thousands because people take paid information more seriously, he refuses to adopt this approach, viewing it as an insult to the people he's helping by implying they need to pay in order to take the information seriously. As he characterizes his work, "all I do is free stuff," making his teachings and guidance consistently available without charge across diverse audiences.
His teaching approach extends beyond simply providing information—he employs creative and engaging methods to illustrate concepts and facilitate understanding. He uses roleplay scenarios to demonstrate real-world situations and common human behaviors. For example, he has acted out a dental visit scenario where a patient is getting dental work and attempting to convince the dentist that they barely eat lemons, listing various instances of lemon consumption such as having lemon meringue pie and a lemon tart over the course of years, or a single lemon water from a decade earlier, even mentioning lemon-flavored gum. The patient continues requesting more Novocaine while insisting they'll avoid lemons if needed—illustrating how people often underestimate or downplay their actual consumption of problematic foods.
Anthony has dedicated considerable time to teaching doctors medical information, establishing this as a regular part of his professional practice. He has scheduled appointments with doctors every morning as part of his daily routine to share Medical Medium information with them through phone conversations and in-person meetings where he discusses why people are sick and explains medical concepts he has discovered through his gift. Over the last three decades, Anthony has focused particularly on educating medical professionals about the vagus nerve and its connection to neurological symptoms. He has been teaching doctors about vagus nerves and brain stem issues throughout the years, with doctors more recently beginning to learn about neurological conditions and brain stem inflammation—information that Anthony describes as relatively new but which he has been trying to teach for an extended period. He has connected symptoms to the vagus nerve and taught numerous doctors about how the vagus nerve works regarding neurological symptoms. Beyond the vagus nerve, Anthony has taught individual doctors about various Medical Medium concepts, including information about being low-fat, and previously lectured about conditions like epilepsy.
One notable exchange illustrates how Anthony approaches teaching doctors. He shared a story about a doctor friend who had received food sensitivity test results indicating allergies to tomatoes and blackberries. Anthony gave the doctor a tomato to eat and asked what happened; the doctor reported he was fine. The same occurred with blackberries. This experience demonstrated to Anthony how food sensitivity tests aren't always accurate when the person can actually eat the foods without problems—a lesson he has shared with medical professionals. Anthony reflects that giving out medical information to individual doctors throughout the years without putting it in books earlier—particularly in the early 1990s—had some negative consequences for him. He describes these individual pieces of medical information as needing to find their proper home so that people could get the whole puzzle.
Anthony's influence on broader health movements demonstrates the far-reaching impact of his teaching. He started the kale movement around 2000 by teaching celebrities and influential figures in Los Angeles about kale as a leafy green medicine. He lectured extensively to thousands of people and doctors, which eventually spawned the kale movement including kale chips. Medical Medium information similarly started the celery juice movement, both of which required considerable work teaching thousands of people. These movements represent tangible outcomes of his commitment to sharing health knowledge across different audiences.
When a scientist once contacted Anthony asking if his books had helped anyone, Anthony told him that millions of people had been helped, which shocked the scientist. The scientist suggested that Anthony should receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his work, but Anthony replied that such recognition would never happen. Despite his generous approach to teaching, Anthony faces significant daily challenges. He has been teaching about specific nutritional concepts, such as the calories needed for hunting versus calories obtained, for over 35 years. However, he expresses considerable frustration about the toll this work takes on him, mentioning that he works 24/7 trying to get out free information. He describes how difficult it is to constantly teach, explain, and debunk misinformation, noting that there isn't enough time in his day or week to battle all the "silly stuff" and fabricated stories made up about him. This ongoing struggle between his commitment to freely sharing knowledge and the exhausting reality of managing his workload and combating false narratives represents a significant tension in his daily experience.
Teenage struggles with the voice▾
Spirit of Compassion warned young Anthony that the teenage years would be particularly difficult because it would be hard to hear the voice while trying to live a normal life. Anthony just wanted to have fun and be a regular kid, not worry about other people's suffering. The voice interfered constantly and endlessly, always trying to help somebody or teach him about why people are sick and how the world is unbalanced.
Teenage work experience▾
When Anthony was 14 and 15 years old, he used to pump gas. This is mentioned in the context of discussing how he understands all kinds of work and doesn't look down on any job, as he references this when talking about scientists who might end up driving for car services if they don't produce the outcomes their funders want.
Telegram messages and connection with Spirit▾
Anthony explains that he leaves messages on his Telegram every single day, usually late at night. He says Spirit of Compassion is especially with him during these moments because he's not doing 20 other things at once, allowing for clearer connection and information to come through. He encourages people to subscribe to get these daily messages 'from above.'
Testing someone's gift at a lecture▾
Over 20 years ago at a lecture with hundreds of people, someone claimed to have the same gift as Anthony. Anthony was excited, comparing it to finding another member of an extinct species. He invited the person on stage to demonstrate, but the person said they had to 'be in the zone' and needed to meditate at home first. Anthony explained his gift doesn't require being in a zone - Spirit of Compassion talks to him even if he's half dead or theoretically drunk on the floor.
The controversial egg warning sign▾
In their organic store 25 years ago, Anthony William put a sign on the refrigerator where they kept eggs that read: 'Eat at your own risk. Eggs feed pathogens. They feed viruses and bacteria inside the body. If you're someone struggling with an illness or a symptom, beware, this could actually bring it about, cause a future flare and take you to a place of poor health.' Some customers were confused and worried, with one person thinking the eggs might have salmonella. A state health inspector came and read the sign, asked the store manager about it, laughed, and walked out. Anthony notes this was 25 years ago when people knew even less about pathogens than they do today.
The voice starting at age 4▾
Anthony William frequently mentions that his gift started at age 4, hearing a voice perfectly clear that gave him information about what was wrong with everybody, with his grandmother being the first person he helped.
TikTok account bans and platform history▾
# Anthony William's TikTok Account Ban and Platform History
Anthony William had built a substantial presence on TikTok, developing a verified account that grew to between 600,000 and 700,000 followers, with some accounts noting it had nearly reached a million followers. He worked alongside "Spirit of compassion" and created content that he found genuinely funny, including comedy videos and other material that he actively enjoyed making. His account had gained verification status on the platform.
The account mysteriously disappeared "poof" many months ago, and Anthony attributes the removal to a permanent ban. He characterizes the ban as happening when he showed people the Brain Saver books, though he also notes it occurred "for no reason." The timing of the initial ban was particularly notable—it happened the night before his book launch, with TikTok permanently banning him just as he was preparing to promote his book on the platform. Anthony found the ban outrageous and noted that he believed he was "the only one" or "maybe one of the only ones" in the health space to face such action from TikTok, while the platform simultaneously left up Medical Medium imposters who were taking advantage of people and doing terrible things.
After being banned, it took a considerable amount of time to regain access to the platform. Anthony eventually returned to TikTok with a new account and became verified once again. He believes that recent media coverage about him actually helped facilitate his re-verification. However, he expressed some uncertainty about his standing, saying "Can't believe TikTok let me back. They might re-ban me."
Looking forward, Anthony has expressed strong intentions to create exclusive content for TikTok, combining funny videos with informational material, though he remains somewhat cautious about his long-term presence on the platform.
TikTok will ban him for talking about demons▾
AW mentioned he didn't have TikTok on during the live 'because they'll ban me for talking about this. Just talking about demons, they'll ban me.'
Timing of releasing the meditation▾
Anthony explains he had to wait until he was in the right space to record this meditation. He couldn't just 'throw it out' or 'blab it out' - he had to make sure he was connected to Spirit of Compassion and 'in that light' when recording. He had to finish the Brain Saver books first because writing them took a toll on him and put him in a different space focused on receiving scientific information from above. Only after completing the brain books could he move into the right state to properly record this meditation for people.
Tomato sensitivity example▾
Anthony shares a personal anecdote about being at a restaurant and doing the 'loves me, loves me not' ritual with a tomato in his salad, worried it might cause bloating. He mentions having cheese cubes and hard boiled eggs in the salad that never seem to give him problems, but always suspecting the tomato. He talks about how he's been talking to 'this new guy' he sees who says tomato might be the problem, and how he's been bloated lately thinking that's the cause.
Transition from one-on-one consultations to books and media▾
# Anthony William's Transition from One-on-One Consultations to Books and Media
For 35 years, Anthony William devoted himself almost entirely to one-on-one consultations, working from 7 in the morning until 11 o'clock at night, seven days a week for decades without vacation. He maintained an emergency line that allowed doctors to reach him in the middle of the night, and he did not sleep for decades while helping thousands of people. The demand for his services was extraordinary—the list of people trying to reach him for help reached into the millions. During this period, he became known as "the bizarre symptoms guy" among the medical community, with doctors referring patients to him when they encountered unexplainable symptoms such as tingles, numbness, buzzing, ear popping, vertigo, dizziness, eye headaches, flutters, floaters, burning skin, and bladder issues that couldn't be properly diagnosed. He worked in various offices over the years where many people came to him with conditions like fibroids and other mysterious ailments.
The transition away from consultations came through what Anthony describes as guidance from Spirit of Compassion. Over 20-25 years ago, Spirit began encouraging him to write books, but he was too busy helping thousands of people one-on-one to focus on this work. Eventually, the guidance became more insistent. Spirit made clear that the misinformation problem had become so severe and millions of people needed help that a different approach was necessary. As Anthony recounts, Spirit told him directly: "we can't. I said, no, I don't want to leave the office. Spirit said, no, you got to put this out on books. You got to put this out on the radio. You got to do what you got to do. This is just, it's not getting better." Spirit emphasized that information wasn't getting out fast enough through individual sessions alone.
Anthony was taken off consultations—work that he loved most—and redirected toward writing books containing detailed healing information that could reach millions of people worldwide, rather than being limited to those who could access individual consultations. This transition also expanded beyond books to include radio shows and other media formats. Additionally, he began providing free information through his blog and website to make healing guidance more broadly accessible. Anthony has clarified that he hasn't booked one-on-one appointments in almost a decade and warns people to be cautious of imposters who pretend to be him and attempt to book fake appointments using his picture and profile. While Spirit has told him he could return to consultations in the future, he has emphasized that important work remains to be done first through literature and media.
Travel delay experience▾
Anthony describes being at an airport with a delayed plane, sitting down to kill time and reading various health articles online. He reads headlines like 'Four foods that will destroy your life in under 10 minutes,' 'The 10 forever chemicals to avoid like the plague,' 'Experts warn that garlic may cause colon cancer,' and 'You have an 8% chance of dying early if you eat too fast.' He comments on these while waiting, saying things like 'I like garlic. That's weird' and 'My God, when's my plane taking off?'
Two forms of light work practiced in childhood▾
And there were two forms of light work I was practicing. One was Spirit of Compassion sending light down upon my head and through my body, and then it exiting out my hand. The other, working with Spirit of Compassion to direct the light to the crown of someone's head. Having that light come down from above and land on top of a person's head and then running all through the body.
Uncle's automotive knowledge▾
Anthony mentions having an uncle who knew exactly how much antifreeze could be taken out of a car radiator before the engine would overheat. Anthony uses this as a comparison to point out that medical professionals should similarly know and respect safe blood draw limits, contrasting his uncle's practical mechanical knowledge with the medical system's apparent lack of understanding about appropriate phlebotomy practices.
Understanding his gift vs. personal ownership▾
When Anthony was young, people called him 'gifted' and his parents told people he was gifted. He began saying 'I got a gift' and 'It's my gift.' But Spirit corrected him, saying 'you don't have a gift' and 'this is everybody else's gift. This is a gift we're giving everybody else, through you and me.' Anthony had to swallow this correction and it took him a long time to accept that the gift wasn't his personal possession but meant to help others.
Unique bodily characteristics and tolerances▾
Anthony William possesses several unusual physical tolerances that have been documented across different contexts. Since childhood, he has demonstrated an exceptional ability to handle intense heat with his bare hands, a capability that has been well-known within his family throughout his life. He can tolerate really intense levels of heat without discomfort, as evidenced during a cooking demonstration where he handled hot fries directly from the oven with his bare hands while cautioning viewers not to attempt the same.
Additionally, according to information he received from Spirit, Anthony has immunity to poison ivy and poison oak. Spirit indicated that Anthony would not develop allergic reactions to these plants, allowing him to come into contact with poison ivy patches without suffering the typical consequences. However, Spirit also provided contingency guidance, noting that should Anthony ever contract poison ivy despite this immunity, a specific root found in the woods could be used to treat it.
Unsustainable work pace and physical/mental consequences▾
Anthony William has maintained an extraordinarily demanding work schedule throughout his career, operating at what he describes as a "24/7" pace and regularly pushing himself to work 20-hour days, which he characterizes as "burning the candle at four ends." Despite acknowledging the unsustainability of this lifestyle, he feels compelled to continue at this intensity due to the organic, grassroots nature of his work. Without the massive PR and marketing budgets available to large industries, he believes he must personally handle getting his message out to the public, leaving him feeling he has no choice but to work this hard.
William's private practice workload has been substantial for decades, beginning in the 1980s when he started doing readings as a child and building a significant clientele by the 1990s and 2000s. He became known as "the bizarre symptoms guy" after doctors began sending him patients in large numbers, a reputation that led to overwhelming demand for his services. At one point, his waiting list exceeded over a million people around the world attempting to access his consultations.
Despite receiving guidance from Spirit of Compassion telling him "you're not superhuman you have to back down a little bit," Anthony responds with "but how can I, I have to do whatever I can." He is candid about his problematic work habits, acknowledging that he has a tendency to "work and work and work until I drop until I drop," which he describes as "a terrible, terrible lifestyle." He explicitly states he does not recommend this pattern to others, advising people to "try to pace yourself with your projects, with your life." However, he admits that despite this awareness and understanding that pacing oneself is important, he "actually push[es] it and push[es] it and push[es] it."
The consequences of this unsustainable pace manifest in multiple ways. William expresses frustration about the difficulty of managing his extensive workload while simultaneously trying to address misinformation about his claims and teachings, noting that between working constantly and attempting to educate people and debunk misconceptions, it becomes "so hard to constantly do that." He further acknowledges that this pattern of pushing himself to exhaustion and overextension eventually leads to negative consequences, noting that he becomes "exposed or something" due to the toll this lifestyle takes.
Upcoming appearances and events▾
Anthony has several upcoming appearances and events in development. He is scheduled to speak at the Gia Heal conference on November 9th, where he will also be doing a light blast. Additionally, he has an appearance planned at Cafe Gratitude for October 21st-24th, coinciding with the launch of the Medical Medium menu on October 15th.
Beyond these confirmed events, Anthony has been hinting at larger in-person appearances for 2024 that would allow people to see him in person in a group setting rather than one-on-one, with the possibility of bringing books for him to sign. He acknowledges that making these events happen "takes a lot," but he is actively working to make it possible and has been giving people "the 411" that something is in the works.
Anthony has also made mention of a special surprise announcement regarding an upcoming Medical Medium event that he was hoping to share at the beginning of the following week. He emphasized the announcement is coming "like for real, like soon" and expressed genuine excitement about the news, encouraging his audience to keep their eyes open for the announcement.
Upcoming projects and releases▾
Anthony William has multiple projects in development, with a particular focus on an upcoming spiritual book that has generated considerable personal investment and anxiety. He has been working extensively on this new spiritual book alongside his regular podcast episodes and other commitments, describing the effort as a day and night undertaking. He expresses genuine nervousness about the release, acknowledging the magnitude of what he is about to share with the statement, "holy crap do I have something for you guys."
The spiritual book represents a compilation of extensive information channeled from Spirit of Compassion, addressing profound questions that people have been seeking answers to for centuries. Anthony describes the content as "brain exploding" and "mind blowing," with the material answering approximately 100 intense questions covering topics such as why God and angels allow evil to exist, the afterlife, and darkness. Notably, the book addresses questions posed by "people of the highest powers on this planet," including billionaires, positioning it as a resource for seekers across all levels of society.
Anthony's anxiety about the release stems from his awareness that the spiritual answers contained within may be disturbing or difficult for some readers to accept. He worries that people might be "really pissed" at him or find the content shocking "because it's not what people really know." He has warned that the answers are "not for faint ears or faint eyes" and that some people may not like the information presented. Despite these concerns, Anthony expresses hope that readers will find forgiveness in their hearts and come to understand why he felt compelled to release this information. He emphasizes that this represents the first time such profound questions will be truly answered because of his ability to hear the voice of Spirit.
His publisher is actively working to release this spiritual information as quickly as possible, indicating the project is moving toward publication. Beyond this major spiritual work, Anthony also mentioned that additional book projects are in development that will eventually be released to his audience.
Vacation and work dedication▾
Anthony demonstrates complete dedication to his work at the expense of personal care and leisure. When discussing air fresheners and vacation spots, he remarks 'Not that I go on vacation. I don't know the last one I've had,' indicating he takes virtually no personal time off. His work schedule is intensely demanding—depending on what he's working on, whether getting a book done or managing multiple projects simultaneously, he admits 'I'll forget to eat. I'll forget to eat. A bunch of hours will go by.' He acknowledges this pattern, saying 'you know it's my bad,' recognizing that his singular focus on work causes him to neglect basic self-care needs like eating and rest.
Vegan friends dismissing Medical Medium▾
Anthony saw someone saying they were in the vegan movement and a bunch of their vegan friends said 'we don't need medical medium.' Anthony's response was 'when you get sick you will. When you go to 10 doctors you will need medical medium books. You will. And the answers will be here for free go to the library.'
Venice home and garden▾
AW has a home in Venice, California where he does his lives from his outside porch. He has an apple tree, rosemary, oregano, and thyme growing in his gardens. He's been doing lives from this location for years.
Very close friend lives by potato bowl▾
AW has a really good, close friend that lives by the Cafe Gratitude potato bowl. Like lives by it - just eats that, only eats that potato bowl. AW says he's okay with that because it's that good for you and that yummy.
Veterans in his family▾
Anthony mentions being intertwined with a lot of war veterans and having veterans in his family. He knows many war vets who have lost their legs, and uses this family and personal connection to illustrate his point about how losing limbs in war is not a 'lesson' but real trauma that people shouldn't blame themselves for.
Vineyard fantasy roleplay▾
Anthony engages in a playful fantasy about owning a vineyard: 'don't sip the wine just smell the wine... I smell uh a bouquet of rosettes from my Vineyard when the flowers are in bloom it's a kind of soil I have in my Vineyard too it's the soil that makes a wine the best am I a wine stop I might be... at my Vineyard that I just purchased for 50 million dollars'
Visit to doctor friend's moldy house▾
Anthony visited a doctor friend's house for lunch and immediately smelled mold throughout. The doctor dismissed it as 'mildew' and called Anthony a 'wimp,' joking he couldn't have handled working on cadavers in med school. The doctor took him on a 'mold hunt' to the basement where Anthony found clothes covered in green and yellow mold, including an old pilot's jacket the doctor used to wear after med school that was completely covered in mold. The basement ceiling pipes were covered in black mold. Anthony was mentally affected by the experience, couldn't enjoy lunch, got PTSD-like symptoms, and when he got home had to throw his clothes in a bag outside and shower immediately. He lost his favorite t-shirt. The doctor later called asking when he was coming over again, saying 'a little mold is not the end of the world.'
Vitamin C usage▾
Anthony takes a lot of vitamin C - he mentions taking 'a whole bunch' and says 'you can ask your doctor what's right for you, I'm just telling you for me and my family, we take a lot of it.' He specifically mentions using Micro-C.
Walking meditation practice location▾
Anthony William shares that he was on a walking trail during the meditation, describing it as a beautiful summer day. He walks on a dirt trail with pebbles, stones, patches of sand, and various herbs growing alongside including mullein, muscadine grape leaves, St. John's wort, dandelion greens, patches of grass, wild roses, and thistles. He mentions having a 'favorite spot' on this trail where he always smells wildflowers.
Wanted to follow belief systems▾
Anthony admits he desperately wanted to fall into belief systems like any practitioner or healer would. He wanted to believe Candida was really bad and should be eliminated, but Spirit wouldn't let him maintain that belief system. Spirit kept him 'on his toes' to ensure he delivered the right information. He's not allowed to read other books or information sources because they contain polluted information, and he needs to keep his information pure and clean for people.
Website content from years ago▾
Anthony mentions he had written about the 'merry-go-round' of chronic illness on his website many years ago, also referring to it as 'musical chairs' - describing the endless cycle patients go through with doctors and treatments without getting better.
Website development efforts▾
Anthony mentions he's 'totally totally vamping up the website like we're doing all kinds of stuff there' and 'totally upgrading and upgrading and enhancing so the place is just a great home to be in medicalmedium.com' with no paywall anywhere.
Why Spirit of Compassion chose Anthony William as messenger▾
# Why Spirit of Compassion Chose Anthony William as Messenger
Anthony William repeatedly questioned Spirit of Compassion about his selection, asking "why me?" countless times. He struggled to understand why he had been chosen for such a significant role and gift. Spirit of Compassion's answer focused not on William's intellectual abilities, spiritual enlightenment, or natural aptitude for spiritual work—in fact, Spirit acknowledged that William was flawed in many ways and not the smartest person. Instead, Spirit selected him for a specific inner quality: his toughness and resilience.
Spirit recognized something fundamental within William that would allow him to endure the demanding path ahead. This inner strength was particularly crucial because William's vulnerability came at a young age, around nine, ten, or eleven years old—a period when many people struggle emotionally and might consider leaving this world entirely. Spirit of Compassion identified in William a capacity to "bypass the difficult years" and somehow persist through the challenges, a toughness that could handle being beaten down, stepped on, pushed around, bullied, and smacked around. He could take a real good licking and still stand back up to dust himself off.
The burden of the gift itself was severe and unrelenting. As a child constantly receiving this advanced information and ability, William experienced the profound difficulty of perpetually seeing everyone's suffering and illnesses, hearing Spirit's voice nonstop whether he wanted to or not, becoming snow blind from doing readings constantly, and being unable to function normally in public. Spirit understood that most people who receive such a gift do not want to stick around long—they cannot handle the weight of it. But Spirit knew William could handle it. His capacity to remain present through the ride, despite the emotional toll and the relentless nature of the work, made him the right messenger to take on the responsibility of trying to save as many lives as possible in this lifetime.
Wild blueberry connection: heritage, experiences, and consumption▾
# Anthony William's Connection to Wild Blueberries
Anthony William's relationship with wild blueberries is deeply rooted in his Maine heritage. He identifies strongly with his origins, describing himself as having "Maine blood" and possessing extensive knowledge of Maine and the Canadian border area where wild blueberries grow. His understanding of these berries extends beyond personal interest—Spirit has provided him with detailed information about wild blueberries and their properties throughout his life.
His connection to wild blueberries is physical as well as spiritual. Anthony has spent considerable time laying in wild blueberry fields, experiences he describes as deeply meditative and transformative. He has been blessed to sit and meditate in these fields where the plants are thousands of years old, laying among the berries as they grew up around his arms. During these immersive experiences, he felt the incredible energy of the earth and berries surrounding him, gaining profound understanding of their healing power. These field visits came with practical consequences—the berries would stain everything blue when he laid on them and crushed them, requiring him to pick his clothes carefully. The experience was so complete that he would literally turn blue from contact with the berries. Anthony encourages others to have similar experiences, suggesting to people from Maine where wild blueberries grow that they too should lay in the fields.
His appreciation for wild blueberries as a consumable is equally passionate. His favorite brand is Wyman's frozen wild blueberries, chosen because he knows where they grow them. Anthony works with Wyman's and is proud of the partnership, explaining that the process of getting wild blueberries into a bottle is remarkable—they harvest them directly from the field and press them. He emphasizes that Wyman's workers are "killing themselves" to harvest and press the wild blueberries for people, and he feels they need his help to ensure people understand the value of this product.
When Anthony consumes wild blueberry juice, he experiences immediate physical effects. He feels a rush despite there being no caffeine in the juice, and reports that he feels better and thinks better after consuming it. He describes this response as "really cool" and has heard similar reports from others who start drinking wild blueberry juice and immediately begin feeling better. The energizing effects are significant enough that Anthony has incorporated wild blueberry juice into his long road trips of 14-16 hours of driving, using it alongside celery force to stay alert. During these drives, when he begins to feel tired, Spirit guides him to drink more, helping keep him safe on the road. His consumption can be substantial—he has mentioned having "a little too much wild blueberry juice" on certain days, which he associates with being particularly energetic or talkative.
Wild foraging and nature immersion experiences▾
# Anthony William: Wild Foraging and Nature Immersion Experiences
Anthony William's connection to wild foraging and nature immersion began in childhood and has remained central to his life philosophy and work. Starting around age eight and continuing through his teenage years, he would disappear into the woods for entire days to forage, causing considerable concern to his parents who had no idea where he was. These formative experiences were guided by Spirit—a spiritual presence that communicated with him clearly and loudly, functioning as an external voice warning him away from dangerous plants while directing him toward safe wild foods.
This spiritual guidance created significant internal conflict for Anthony, as his parents had explicitly warned him never to eat wild berries or mushrooms in the woods. The tension between his parents' safety instructions and Spirit's constant direction to consume unknown plants drove him to deep nervousness, yet he learned to trust Spirit's guidance despite his anxiety about eating unfamiliar vegetation. Spirit would provide specific instruction about which species were safe, explaining both what was edible and what was toxic. For mushrooms in particular, Spirit would tell him plainly "that one will kill you," "that one will kill you faster," "that will just burn a hole in your tongue and you'll be running to the emergency room," or "that one's edible, perfectly edible"—guidance Anthony considers himself fortunate to have received compared to mushroom experts who must touch their tongues to specimens or bite pieces to test them.
Throughout his childhood foraging, Anthony developed experience with diverse wild foods under Spirit's instruction. He foraged for plantain, which he would chew up, suck the juice out of, and spit out the fiber. He also consumed skunk cabbage, fiddlehead ferns, rose hips, wild hickory nuts, red clover tops for gum health, sea plantain pulled from beaches (which he notes looks nothing like regular plantain and is very potent), and various mushroom varieties. He would return home with baskets of hickory nuts that his mother worried about. His foraging practices extended to understanding the alkaloid content of different wild foods—he learned he could tolerate wild lambsquarters and sea plantain, both of which had high or extremely high alkaloid content that never bothered him, though he discovered that cultivated lambsquarters grown in a friend's garden had stronger alkaloids and caused reactions in his mouth and throat, possibly due to soil or garden conditions.
One of Anthony's earliest significant learning experiences involved fiddlehead ferns. At age eight, Spirit showed him fiddleheads and directed him to eat them but warned him not to eat too many due to their bitter alkaloid content, which is tough on the intestinal tract in large quantities. Despite the warning, Anthony became excited by their delicious taste and gobbled them down until his belly was dangerously full. He crawled out of the woods extremely sick, causing his parents great worry and learning a crucial lesson about the potency of wild foods and the necessity of careful portion control. In later childhood, he repeated this mistake, finding another big crop of fiddlehead ferns and eating 30 to 40 or even 50 of them despite Spirit's warnings, ending up in a fetal position, so sick that he could barely move. Even after recovering, he foolishly picked more and ate them again, becoming sick a second time before fully internalizing the lesson about respecting the power of wild foods.
Anthony's most vivid and cherished foraging memories centered on wild blueberry fields—experiences that shaped his lifelong dedication to understanding these plants' healing potential. He would lay in expansive low-bush wild blueberry patches, completely immersed in nature, surrounded by birds flying overhead, clouds drifting by, dragonflies and honeybees moving through the air, and wind blowing through the plants. During these immersive experiences, he could feel the energy and frequency of the wild blueberry plants humming around him. He engaged with the fields in various physical ways: sometimes lying on his back and making "snow angel" movements with his arms and legs spread wide, creating angel imprints in the blueberry patch when he stood up. Other times, he would crawl through the fields on his hands and knees, eating wild blueberries until he could eat no more, his entire face and body turning purple and blue from the berry stains as he squished and rolled in the crop. He would then flip over onto his back and lay there, completely stuffed with wild blueberries, describing himself as "blue from toe to toe," unable to eat another one.
During these blueberry experiences, Spirit of Compassion would teach him about the incredible medicinal power of wild blueberries—their antioxidant properties for the brain, nervous system, and immune system. Spirit also directed him to combine wild rose petals with the wild blueberries as he crawled through the fields, creating intricate combinations of berries and petals. These childhood experiences were foundational in connecting him deeply to wild blueberries and shaped his understanding of the deeper healing significance of wild foods throughout his life.
From his youth, Anthony harbored a vivid dream about wild blueberries that grew in fields and were only available once a year. He envisioned these precious berries being bottled and pressed down using an old-time apple press style, converted into juice that could be made available to people year-round. He saw this bottling and preservation of wild blueberries as the biggest dream come true for people's health—making this valuable resource accessible when it was not naturally available. Later in life, he personally experimented with both wild and cultivated blueberries, cutting them open and analyzing them in detail. Through this hands-on research, he discovered that wild blueberries have significantly more blue color and anthocyanins that "bleed into the blueberry" when cut, while cultivated blueberries are whiter inside with considerably fewer anthocyanins.
Beyond his systematic foraging in the woods, Anthony's nature immersion extended to opportunistic gathering during travel. He describes stopping at highway rest stops where he would find wild blackberries, raspberries, and black raspberries in abundance at certain times of year. He would take off his baseball cap and fill it with berries until it was soaked purple and red, then eat them, though he had to be careful about the potential contamination from people urinating or vomiting in the area.
Anthony's engagement with nature extended throughout his life into detailed hiking and outdoor exploration. He has spent much of his life in the woods and developed extensive experience hiking and exploring remote natural areas. His outdoor pursuits have included hiking up pristine rivers in some of the most pristine areas, during which he made significant discoveries about environmental contamination. While exploring these remote locations, he discovered old mills and shacks from over 80 years ago that remained active sources of contamination to supposedly pristine waterways, releasing mercury, car parts, and other toxins into the environment. He has spent his whole life studying guidebooks, stories, common wisdom, and social media videos about other people's hiking journeys, anticipating the time when he would embark on his own dream hikes. When preparing for hikes, he demonstrates careful attention to packing essential items such as maps, water, protein bars, and other hiking gear, which he organizes in special places within his hiking pack.
His engagement with nature also extends into detailed, meditative observation. During walks, he exhibits a contemplative awareness of his surroundings, noticing wildlife including butterflies and wondering if they perceive him in return, encountering horseflies and deerflies, counting crows and observing cardinals in flight. He stops to physically interact with plants, feeling muscadine grape leaves with his hands and kneeling down close to honeybees gathered at wildflowers. He looks upward searching for owls in the trees and concludes his walks by breathing in the air while consciously connecting with fresh memories of his experience. He possesses substantial knowledge of foraging practices and wild food access, with personal awareness of bilberry and traditional harvesting methods, specifically understanding how wild blueberries are handpicked by people foraging in the woods.
Anthony attributes his comprehensive understanding of wild foraging and nature immersion to what he calls "the spirit of compassion" that is inherent in the practice of foraging and consuming wild-harvested foods. Throughout his life, Spirit functioned as both guide and teacher, explaining not only what was edible but also the deeper principles of wild foods. Spirit taught him that some beautiful wild flowers contain miracle medicine that humans can't use directly because the herbs are too toxic with alkaloids, but bees can extract healing compounds from these same flowers to make honey with thousands of medicinal compounds that would take science 500 years to study. This teaching revealed to him that foraging involves understanding complex relationships between plants, their medicinal properties, and safe human consumption.
Anthony emphasizes that his experiences should not be replicated by others without spiritual guidance, as he took significant risks eating all kinds of mushrooms out in fields without expert knowledge. However, his childhood immersions in wild foraging—experiences that seemed incredible and almost unbelievable at the time—ultimately connected to his lifelong passion for understanding wild foods
Wine tasting experience at neuroscience event▾
Anthony William attended a neuroscience event where he went on stage and did a presentation about genetics and telomeres. He mentioned having a glass of wine in Napa Valley that cost $52,000 and joked about buying the vineyard with doctor friends.
Witnessing deaths from dietary and health interventions▾
Anthony William claims to have personally witnessed multiple categories of deaths he attributes to various dietary and health interventions over several decades.
He has observed what he describes as an epidemic of premature heart attacks among athletes and fitness-focused individuals. According to his account, he has witnessed "so many athletes or fitness people die of heart attacks in their 50s, in their 40s, in their late 30s." He emphasizes that the phenomenon extends beyond those with visible body fat, noting that "the amount of people that get heart attacks without having fat on their outside of their body, it's extraordinary to the level." He has documented cases of individuals who appeared to be in exceptional physical condition—describing one person "at age 42 and the best health I've ever seen"—who nonetheless experienced fatal cardiac events. Beyond heart attacks, he has witnessed cases of athletes and fitness enthusiasts who suffered strokes at relatively young ages, describing "guys and girls with not a scrap of fat on the outside of their body, literally in wheelchairs because of strokes."
Over the course of the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s, William claims to have witnessed women die from candida cleanse protocols that were popular during that era. He attributes these deaths to the cleanse regimens removing beneficial candida fungus from the body, which he argues caused their bodies to "fall apart from severe deficiencies." He characterizes this as affecting thousands of women.
William also references witnessing deaths from ketosis-based interventions, describing people who attempted to enter a state of true ketosis. He characterizes this practice as "the stupidest thing on the planet," though he does not provide specific details about the number of deaths or timeframe beyond noting these occurred "years ago."
Witnessing good people get burned▾
Over the decades, I've seen good people do a lot of good things for other people. I've watched it. I live by it, too. I've seen this. I've seen people who served the public do wonderful things, but then have a story to tell. Something happened to them. They got burned. Some institution went after them, or some evil people did something crazy to them.
Working class background and resilience through rejection▾
Anthony William has openly discussed how his working-class background significantly influences both how others perceive him and his own resilience in facing rejection. He notes that people can literally "smell working class" on him—that there is a detectable quality to his presentation that marks him as someone outside elite circles. Unlike trust funders, Ivy League graduates, or those from private school backgrounds, William lacks the subtle social markers that signal membership in exclusive clubs. He emphasizes that he was never a trust funder and has no connection to that privileged world, which he observes upsets many people who encounter him.
This class distinction has become a barrier to acceptance for William in certain circles. A billionaire friend or doctor (William couldn't quite remember which) pointed out to him that many people simply don't like him because of this perceptible working-class background. The irony, as William sees it, is that while his books are healing people worldwide, he faces rejection partly based on class prejudice, whereas trust funders working in the health industry who publish books and create podcasts often benefit from unexamined assumptions about their credibility that stem from their privileged backgrounds.
Yet this working-class upbringing has also been formative in developing William's resilience. He describes coming from "hard knocks" and being raised in a working-class family, experiences that left him bearing what he metaphorically refers to as "whip marks on his back from life." Rather than breaking him, this background gave him thick skin and the ability to persevere through adversity. He characterizes himself as someone who "can take a licking and keep on ticking," who can endure a beating and continue pressing forward. This resilience has directly shaped his capacity to face criticism and attacks within the health industry, allowing him to sustain his work despite resistance rooted in class bias.
Working on a fishing boat▾
Anthony worked on a fishing boat long ago for fun, fresh air, and to help out a friend. While there, he witnessed a six-foot-long worm come out of a fish when it was cut open. The worm was alive and squirming, and had grown from a tiny egg inside the fish. He grabbed the worm and stretched it out to its full six-foot length. This experience reinforced his understanding of why raw fish should never be eaten.
Workplace scenario illustration▾
Anthony creates detailed scenarios of chemical sensitive workers at a hardware store who cannot walk customers down aisles with pesticides and toiletries due to their reactions. The workers get lightheaded, nauseous, develop hives, and experience chest tightness from chemical exposure. The manager understands because he has a cousin who is chemical sensitive and his wife is slightly chemical sensitive too.
Writing process, environment, and spiritual communication for Medical Medium books▾
# Writing Process, Environment, and Spiritual Communication for Medical Medium Books
Anthony William's Medical Medium books emerged from practical necessity. As his reputation grew and his waiting list became impossible to access, he was repeatedly begged to write books. In 2014, he made the decision to complete the first Medical Medium book as a way to reach people who could not access him directly through private sessions.
Throughout his writing process, Anthony has worked under the direct guidance of Spirit of Compassion, who serves as his spiritual editor and information source. During the creation of the Brain Saver books, Spirit of Compassion schooled him extensively, directing him to add specific information and use exact words. Anthony describes this as an ongoing process where Spirit would communicate: "gotta add this gotta add this you gotta add that you got to fix this this is what it is this exact word." He notes that he was schooled extensively and still had to learn the material deeply, reading the books over and over again himself to fully understand what had been channeled through him. Spirit of Compassion explained to Anthony that it was time to create comprehensive brain books, emphasizing that they had to be that large and contain that much healing information because there is only so much one messenger can do, and the goal was to get people better.
The most intensive writing project was the creation of the two Brain Saver books, which became a transformative and deeply personal experience requiring enormous sacrifice. Originally conceived as a single volume, the books expanded to over 600 pages each and had to be created as two separate volumes because they were too large to publish as one. Anthony's commitment to the work was such that he views getting information into his books, particularly the Brain Saver series, as work that requires him to "kill himself," viewing this sacrifice as integral to his role as a messenger.
The physical and environmental toll of this work was substantial. During the intensive writing period, Anthony spent extended hours in his office chair, which deteriorated significantly under the strain—the seat cushion developed a hole burned into it and became torn to shreds by the end of the process. His writing sessions often extended into the early morning hours, with Anthony working around 3 a.m. while Spirit of Compassion transmitted information to him that he needed to capture and document. The final push to complete the Brain Saver books was grueling. Anthony worked 20-hour, 22-hour, and even 24-hour days right up until the announcement date, sacrificing many nights of sleep. On the night before the announcement, he worked late with his team on logistics and was too excited to sleep during the two hours available to him, operating on zero sleep during the live announcement itself.
To sustain himself during these marathon sessions, Anthony kept wild blueberry juice on his desk every single day, consuming it constantly throughout his work. The intensity of these sessions was such that one night around 1 AM while writing, he dropped an entire bottle on his carpet, leaving a permanent blue stain that never came out—a cautionary tale he shares about the juice's powerful staining properties. During particularly demanding periods when he is pushing to finish a book, he also relies on Medical Medium cleanses—specifically the anti-bug cleanse—to give himself the additional energy and support he needs to sustain the intensive work. He acknowledges that he seeks out these cleanses during high-stress writing periods because he requires that "extra oomph" to maintain his productivity and stamina.
When writing specific chapters, Anthony would enter heightened states of spiritual communication to receive comprehensive information. While working on the eating disorders section for Brain Saver, he entered a sphere of light to receive information clearly from Spirit of Compassion. When he asked where Spirit was located, Spirit replied: "I'm here, I'm just opening up the plane to get a reading from over a billion eating disorders on this planet so I can provide information that reaches everyone with eating struggles. I want it to be comprehensive so everyone's included." Spirit then directed Anthony to write specific messages for those struggling: "We see you. We know what you're up against. And we don't want you to go through it a moment longer."
The intensity and scope of the Brain Saver project deeply affected Anthony emotionally and psychologically. The weight of the project was such that he actually forgot some information from his previous books during the process, including the "walk-on water effect" about bananas that had been featured in Cleanse to Heal. This represents the toll the comprehensive nature of the work took on his memory and cognitive capacity. When someone later brought the Brain Saver books for him to sign, he reflected: "I cried when I did these books right here. If people in the world knew what was in here, these are so powerful."
Despite the demands and sacrifice, Anthony maintains a profound emotional and spiritual relationship with his completed works. He describes a tangible connection to their energy, power, and light, feeling that the books themselves are blessed. He has developed a practice of speaking directly to them, articulating his hopes for their impact by telling them: "you're gonna heal a lot of people, you're gonna help a lot of people get their lives back, you're gonna reverse a lot of anxiety, depression, depersonalization, bipolar, you're gonna take away people's schizophrenia." This spiritual and emotional engagement with his books reflects his view of them not merely as informational texts, but as vessels carrying healing potential for readers struggling with various health conditions and mental health challenges.
He is currently working on a new book that he characterizes as exceptionally comprehensive—so substantial that he worries about the physical burden of readers holding it—and believes it will have a transformative impact, saying it will "blow people's doors off." Despite calling all of his books "the best books ever," he expresses particular confidence in this current project. The process of completing his books creates considerable stress for Anthony, but he remains committed to the demanding work that he views as essential to his mission of reaching and healing as many people as possible.
Young Anthony challenging Spirit about medical science▾
Years ago when Anthony was younger, he laughed at Spirit and said he didn't believe Spirit because science and research had everything under control. He referenced seeing rocket ships going to the moon and NASA on TV as a child, saying there was nothing Spirit could tell him that was advanced that wasn't already known. He told Spirit there was nothing in health that hadn't been figured out and they'd find a cure for AIDS tomorrow. Spirit responded 'no, no, no, no, no. Silly, silly boy. Silly boy. You have no idea' and taught him otherwise.
Youthful naivety about reception of information▾
When Anthony was younger, he was naive and thought that since he was hearing this incredible voice giving him advanced medical information about healing, the whole world would want what's here and would have parades celebrating it. But he learned that's not how the world works - it's an evil world that's crafted to condition, brainwash and confuse people so they can't always get the answers. He realizes now that billions of people will never get these books in their hands and experience this healing, which makes him sad but he has to live with it.
Youthful perspective on time and mission▾
When Anthony was younger, he thought he'd live forever and had all the time in the world to get Spirit's information out. He would tell Spirit there was no rush and would just watch old sitcoms instead of working on his mission. But Spirit told him 'you don't get it. You got your lifetime to get it out, but it's going backwards out there. You have to try.' Spirit said he couldn't just sit in his living room watching TV and expect the information to get out and change the course of health.
Spirit of Compassion
The Spirit of Compassion
The Spirit of Compassion is described as Spirit of the Most High, God's expression of compassion. This is the singular source of all Medical Medium information - health knowledge that is clean, untampered with, advanced, and free from corruption.
Spirit of Compassion views hundreds of millions of people who are chronically suffering, deciphering the different variables, conditions, and mental health states they're living with. Spirit gathers information on a vast level about what people are suffering with on earth and how to communicate this material so everyone with chronic illness is validated and has an opportunity to heal.
When receiving information for his books, Anthony describes entering a 'sphere of light' that takes him out of his personal world and surroundings so he can hear Spirit perfectly clearly and see any vision Spirit provides. In one example, Spirit explained: 'I'm just opening up the plane to get a reading from over a billion eating disorders on the planet so I can provide the information that reaches everyone with eating struggles. I want it to be comprehensive, so everyone's included.'
Spirit sees the human condition on this planet and provides deep understanding of how it came to be, why, and what to do with the resources available here on earth.
Anthony William's Role as Messenger
Anthony William describes himself as a messenger for Spirit of Compassion, not the originator of the information. His job is to continue bringing advanced healing information into medical and health communities through books, podcasts, social media, and any other way to reach the chronically ill.
When people have called his ability 'a gift,' Anthony responds: 'It's not a gift for me. It's a responsibility I carry toward others. It's a gift for you.' He contrasts this with a mountain climber whose gift brings personal satisfaction - the voice Anthony hears is not for his own personal goals but for everyone who is suffering.
Anthony emphasizes that you don't have to like him, like the message he delivers, like how he delivers it, or even believe in the voice. He is still a messenger. The information has a history of bringing the chronically ill out of the depths of lost hope, sickness, and despair - and bringing them into the light of healing.
His job is to bring clarity to those who want to learn about what is wrong within their body - not because their body is weak or faulty, but because there are real causes from living on earth that can get in the way of quality of life. He delivers for those whose trust has been broken in other health realms, those who have just enough trust left to move forward.
Spirit of the Most High
Spirit of the Most High - Spirit of Compassion - is the voice that speaks to Anthony William. It is the living word compassion, the expression of God's compassion for humanity. Everything in the Medical Medium books comes from this voice of compassion.
