Enlightening discussions that will change the way you think about the ancient Old Testament. The biblical accounts are not myth or legend; in fact they are more real than you ever imagined. Each month brings you Bible/science research results you won't hear anywhere else, and why it matters for you today. Your hosts, Steve and Jennifer Hall, present a collage of topics from the research work of Dr. Gerald Aardsma (The Biblical Chronologist), providing a desperately needed data-rich apologetic for the foundations of the Christian faith.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-bc-messenger-5648971"},"episode":{"title":"Two New Vitamins Walked Into the FDA...","slug":"two-new-vitamins-walked-into-the-fda","published_at":"2025-11-04T19:11:04+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-bc-messenger-5648971/two-new-vitamins-walked-into-the-fda","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-bc-messenger-5648971","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/bcmessenger/2307788","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/148426/2307788/bcmessenger/2025_11_04_17_33_41_8a7fe047-90e4-42ae-8480-df915c9baacb.mp3","summary":"[Season 4, Episode 4] After his initial discovery of the anti-aging vitamins , Dr. Aardsma made contact with the United States FDA, attempting to follow the applicable guidelines before bringing his new product to market in 2017. The interactions between Dr. Aardsma and the FDA at that time ended up being frustrating and unproductive. \"Two new vitamins\" appear to be uncharted territory for the FDA. After five years of subsequent silence, the FDA contacted Dr. Aardsma this past summer. (Why now, after five years of silence? We have some ideas.) Learn what the FDA communicated to us this summer, where things stand now, and what the future might hold, on today's podcast episode. We find ourselves blazing a trail of sorts with the discovery of these two new vitamins, rooted in Bible/science research. There is no manual or web search that can give us instructions on how to move this new discovery forward into the hands of the proper authorities. Last month's episode reminds us of the inherent difficulties faced by previous vitamin discoveries, by which we can see that we are in good company at least, and thereby we are encouraged that eventually the truth will prevail. \"We humans do tend to muddle our way through sooner or later.\" -Dr. Aardsma Also on this episode: Helen's View: The early days of harmonizing the Bible and science.
