The chapter suggests simple practices such as drinking hydrogen water, using hydrogen water bottles or tablets, and bathing in hydrogen-enriched water as methods to incorporate these benefits.
• 109:00 - 115:00: Fasting and Cancer Prevention The chapter 'Fasting and Cancer Prevention' begins by discussing the addition of hydrogen gas to water as a potentially groundbreaking practice. The narrator briefly mentions conditions like psoriasis and eczema, suggesting that hydrogen gas might have effects on them. However, the emphasis is on encouraging the reader to explore the research independently, highlighting resources like hydrogenstudies.com for credible research insights.
• 115:00 - 129:00: Detoxification Methods and Heavy Metals The chapter focuses on extending life by not just adding years but enhancing the quality of those years. It mentions the importance of providing the body with necessary raw materials to function properly and discusses the research on longevity, particularly in Blue Zones, where people often live beyond 100 years.
• 129:00 - 190:00: Review of Lab Results and Health Recommendations This chapter explores the importance of continuity and balance in diets rather than adhering to strict, dogmatic dietary labels such as vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, carnivore, keto, paleo, or raw food. It emphasizes focusing on whole food diets by highlighting examples like Sardinia, where people consume a high-carbohydrate diet but live long healthy lives by making food from scratch. The chapter suggests drawing lessons from Mediterranean dietary practices to improve health outcomes.
• 190:00 - 204:30: Closing Remarks and Final Thoughts In the closing remarks and final thoughts, the speaker reflects on contrasting global dietary patterns and health outcomes, highlighting that despite divergent practices such as high oil and cheese consumption in France and high meat consumption in Singapore, both places have populations that enjoy long life expectancies. The speaker suggests a commonality among these varied diets—a focus on whole foods—as a potential factor in promoting longevity, drawing a parallel to the dietary trends in the United States.

• 00:00 - 00:30 [Music] Gary Brea it's an honor to have you here man dude it's such an honor to be here I can't even tell you man thank you this room is incredible like I said it it's full of like knives and guns and bullets and but the but the stories on the wall in here it's like the energy in here is so good you feel safe like you feel protected it's thank you you got an awesome spot man well I appreciate that there's a a lot of history in here from
• 00:30 - 01:00 from a lot of our guests and and from my prior careers and and uh and uh but hey I had a great time at your podcast too I mean we were joking downstairs I I uh I've never been talked into getting in another man's bathroom so yeah we became we became best friends that day brother you're like you got to get in here it's hydrogenated water and then I did it and I'm like I'm sitting in there I'm like I can't believe I got in this [ __ ] guy's bathtub and uh and sure as [ __ ] like you told me hey if you have any
• 01:00 - 01:30 aches pains it's all going to go away and I was like yeah right and I'll be damned man like I didn't notice it right away I noticed it the next morning that's usually Hurts the Most and no shoulder pain no back pain no knee pain and I was like okay there's something to this yeah and um and I took like I told you I took pictures of all the little devices that hydrogenate the water and started Googling around and got in touch with one of the companies
• 01:30 - 02:00 and and U and really started researching it and so I'm going to get all that stuff there's there's a there's a website called hydrogen studies.com you can go there for free it's all the Consolidated research on hydrogen hydrogen gas using hydrogen to increase um circulation reduce inflammation improve cognitive function I mean just just go there and read it there's animal and and human studies on there you can select out the animal studies and read the human clinical trials um I think
• 02:00 - 02:30 it's it's the best kept secret in in all of modern medicine I mean for for athletic performance um I mean you you talked to like a Jon Jones or uh Michael Chandler or you know some of these other athletes that I've I've worked with simple changes to their regimen like having them bathe in hydrogen water um having them drink hydrogen water and and the reduction in pain level and the Improvement in performance um because of the reduction in inflammation but most people that are in the kind of pain that
• 02:30 - 03:00 you were in knees hips shoulders rotator cuff low back they're on corticosteroids you know and inflammatories like a meth trxade or dexamethazone or um prednizone called nral do pxs um or they're taking pain medication um when you can actually take a warm bath in hydrogen gas and get the same effect and it not only can last longer it can potentially permanently reverse those conditions no kidding oh yeah I mean after you know how did you
• 03:00 - 03:30 you know I don't want to get too far on the weeds cuz we're just starting out I know we'll get more into this but I am I'm I don't want to forget this question Ian how how the hell did you even like where did it who comes up with like I mean to me this is like you asked like four questions to me this is like psychedelics like who picked the who picked the who picked up the toad and rubbed it and ate the Venom or smok the Venom you know who came up with that and so I want to like how did you how did
• 03:30 - 04:00 you find hydrogen and and its benefits you know my my undergraduate degrees are in biology and my postgraduate degrees are in human biology so I've always been like crazy fascinated with the human body and the more I study the human body the the more it's actually strengthened my faith the more I believe that this was created by a Divine being and it wasn't by accident like you'll never convince me that two bacteria banged a billion years ago in a mud puddle and a lizard grew out and eventually we became
• 04:00 - 04:30 Homo sapiens and here we are right um and it doesn't it doesn't even make sense evolutionarily because there's huge gaps in the fossil record but we we can talk about that later but but I've been fascinated by the human body and I just believe so much more in what God gave us than what man makes us and we become a society that's just become so dependent on chemicals on synthetics on Pharmaceuticals but when you really start to look at the the research which I'm fascinated by like my heroes are
• 04:30 - 05:00 the the scientists and the phds and the MDS and the researchers that are doing real work studying real human beings to try to extend life and and and improve humanity and what you find in in most of this research is that we're just getting back to the basics right sunlight grounding breath work Whole Foods um so hydrogen's been I mean you're probably 60% hydrogen by weight I mean think of the percentage of water you are
• 05:00 - 05:30 um and it's harmless to human beings but this gas has anti-inflammatory process properties it feeds a whole class of bacteria in our gut um it's uh it's um improves circulation it improves the absorption of our uh supplements our nutrients so you know simple things like switching to drinking hydrogen water like using a hydrogen water bottle or hydrogen tablets um bathing in hydrogen water you know water that been circulated through a machine that just
• 05:30 - 06:00 adds hydrogen gas to the water game changers um psoriasis eczema um and and don't take my word for it you know Google around go go to hydrogen studies.com read read the research for yourself so um this is one of those things I studyed you know after um I really kind of got into the biohacking space because I was in the mortality space for decades um you know predicting predicting death and as I've really started to go down the rabbit hole of
• 06:00 - 06:30 what is truly extending life like how do we not just add years to our life but how do we add life to our years like how do we not grow old and have to deal with all the consequences of Aging well the way you grow old and don't deal with the consequences of Aging is you give the body the raw material it needs to do its job right and and and if you look at the broad research on this like look at Blue zones for example right where you have these sarian people that live Way Beyond age 100 if you look at all these Blue zone areas of the world you won't find
• 06:30 - 07:00 continuity between diets right so the dogmatic dieting is not the answer so it's not vegan vegetarian pescatarian carnivore keto paleo raw food it's not these hyper dogmatic diets it's whole food diets right you go to you go to Sardinia and you see that it's one of the highest carbohydrate consumptions in the world well how are they eating so many carbohydrates and living to 117 years old well they make their bread from scratch they make their pasta from scratch um these are all Whole Foods you go to the Mediterranean and that flies
• 07:00 - 07:30 in the face of of you know modern medical recommendations high amounts of uh um fat fatty fish lots of oils cheese so and then you go to you know the French are screwing the whole thing up because they're smoking cigarettes and drinking wine and eating cheese and and some of those areas are they're living forever you go to Singapore it's one of the highest meat consumptions in the world one of the longest life expectancies in the world so what's the commonality the commonality is a whole food diet you know in the United States
• 07:30 - 08:00 67% of our diet is highly processed foods which are not even Foods right so I have an intellectual curiosity like a child like I'm I'm absolutely fascinated by the human body and I think that we are just barely beginning to understand what God's created and I believe more in its ability to heal itself I believe more in its ability to heal the environment around it um than I do in the you know chemical Industrial
• 08:00 - 08:30 complex and so you know we should be studying things like that hydration nutrition hydrogen water hydrogen gas these are things that are readily available for us so so when you when I asked you that day if you had any aches or pains and you're like you you got some time yeah like like everything hurts I go you're going to wake up tomorrow morning Nothing's Gonna Hurt I remember I could see the doubt in your face you're right you're right but um well we'll get into that yeah here in a
• 08:30 - 09:00 bit I want to everybody starts off with an introduction here so Gary Brea you're a human biologist biohacker and Longevity expert with over two decades of experience in optimizing Human Performance and wellness previously you were a mortality modeling expert in the insurance industry using medical records and demographic data from 360 Million Lives to predict lifespans with remarkable Precision determined to transition from predicting lifespans to
• 09:00 - 09:30 extending them you embarked on a quest to optimize biomarkers and unlock the secrets to a longer healthier life since this transition you founded the ultimate human media platform and podcast where you share Insight with celebrities athletes and scientists you're a consultant to high-profile individuals including CEOs professional athletes and celebrities such as Dana White JN Jones and Stephen A Smith working with a team of experts to optimize mind body and
• 09:30 - 10:00 spirit through science back methods you're also a husband a father and probably most important of all a man of faith and a Christian amen and I know I'm missing a ton of other information those are the highlights those are great but uh and one thing we do is uh we have a patreon account they're there are top supporters uh many of them been with us since the beginning and um you know this whole thing kind of started off my attic
• 10:00 - 10:30 is uh is a hobby and um and they have enabled me to grow this into what it is today and um so one of the things I offer them is uh I give them insight into who's coming on the podcast and uh offer them the opportunity to ask each and every guest a question cool so they knew that I was coming on so there's word specifically for me this is specifically for you so this is from Jesse what do you believe is the most underestimated factor in optimizing
• 10:30 - 11:00 longevity and cognitive performance and how can individuals practically integrate this into their daily routines so the most um underutilized overlooked area um in all of human optimization as we talked about a few minutes ago is sleep if you're not sleeping you're not healing you're not repairing you're not eliminating waste you're not toxifying um and so if I was to just pick one thing um to optimize in my life
• 11:00 - 11:30 um to improve my cognitive performance it would be it would be sleep um and then follow by a second third and fourth and I'll just lay those out for Jesse um the second would be movement um again going back to the discussion we had about the blue zones one of the things that was common between all of the different blue zones which was not diet um was Mobility until later in life um so sitting is the new smoking sedentary lifestyle is now the leading cause of all cause mortality wow wow the leading
• 11:30 - 12:00 cause it is the leading cause of all cause mortality meaning the the greatest impact on the total number of deaths what's called a modifiable risk factor is sedentary lifestyle I have a saying that aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort and and and most of us are aggressively pursuing Comfort we are accelerating the rate at which we age we have to stop thinking about stress as being a negative right stress can be very good for us if you don't actually load your bones they will not strengthen
• 12:00 - 12:30 I don't care how much calcium you take if you don't actually tear a muscle it won't grow if you don't challenge the immune system it will weaken the worst thing that came out of the pandemic second maybe only to the vaccine itself and we can talk about that but um was residential quarantining masking and social distancing you took human being beings out of contact with other human beings so what happens when that occurs the immune system weakens right the body's very efficient if you stop using something it will forget about it right if you put a on your left arm even if
• 12:30 - 13:00 it's healthy and you take it off in 6 weeks and you compare your left arm to your right arm it will not only have lost muscle mass but you have lost actual you will have lost a lot of tissue right not just fat muscle tendon ligament bone um will start to demineralize because if you don't use it you lose it and so when when we stopped challenging the immune system the immune system weakened and then we woke up from the pandemic and everybody went back to quote unquote normal society and now you start hearing about things like well we're on our eighth version of omnicron were uh monkey pox well what the hell is
• 13:00 - 13:30 monkey pox where did that come from well it's always been around it's just been so weak that it never manifested itself but you globally weaken the immune system and now you've got a weakened Society without a strong immune system and you're seeing the consequences of that so you know sleep first um and and and and Mobility second and I don't care how deconditioned you are um you know you don't have to go out and and and do like you know hits cardio and super Spartan races you you just need to move
• 13:30 - 14:00 and 3 15 minute walks a day apply stress to your body I mean if you the simple fact is if you want to live a long time lift heavy weight no kidding no question I mean lift heavy weight lift heavy weight challenge your body tear your muscles Supply stress to the body lift things that are are heavy no not so heavy that you hurt yourself I don't believe in loading the spine but um if you can walk that's excellent for you it's probably the most underrated
• 14:00 - 14:30 exercise in the world but if you only had time to do cardiovascular training or weight training I would do weight training right really even if it's just body weight exercises no question because weight training beats cardiovascular training hands down muscle is not only our metabolic currency but muscle is uh in my opinion and probably Gabriel lion would share this with me too it's the largest organ in the body like what does muscle do that we don't know that it does we know it holds our skeleton up and it you know moves our moves our bones around but makes us look good if we're physically
• 14:30 - 15:00 fit but the truth is that muscle is a sponge for glucose right I mean it absorbs glucose it uses the sugar in our in our bloodstream you want to lower your blood sugar move your muscles um it also holds our our skeletal system erect the greatest risk to longevity in the elderly is frailty right that's why grip strength is is actually directly tied to longevity no kidding when you look no question I mean the elderly why what
• 15:00 - 15:30 happens is you know Falls are enormous risk to the elderly and to the frail why do why do people start falling in older ages is it because they're losing their balance or they're disoriented or they trip more often no you probably had six incidences in the last month where you would have fallen if you didn't have the grip strength to stop yourself right but you can hold on to your door handle you can grab the railing of a stair um you can brace yourself on the wall and you just moved on about your day when you're when you're frail and you can't stop the momentum of a fall then you end up with a catastrophic
• 15:30 - 16:00 injury and then without loading our spine without sorry without loading our skeletal system it begins to weaken you know how many of us know we used to call it the Triad of death in the in the mortality space when I was doing mortality research you know someone would break their hip and within 36 months they were they were dead why would a hip fracture lead to early death because the majority of hip fractures in the elderly are not elderly people falling and breaking their hip the majority of hip fractures in the elderly are the hip breaking and then they fall
• 16:00 - 16:30 and there's a difference between the fracture causing the fall and the fall causing the fracture so when your skeletal system is so weak that it can not only support its own weight Grandma's standing at the kitchen sink doing dishes and her femoral head cracks and she falls and they go oh my gosh Grandma fell and broke her hip no she didn't her hip broke and then she fell and so we we have pursued comfort so aggressively that we become so frail that we can't even essentially protect
• 16:30 - 17:00 ourselves so so those would be my my big recommendations would be start a you know process I mean Sardinia for example in the blue zones in Sardinia their life expectancy was directly related to the grade of the slope they walked up the steeper the slope the longer the life expectancy no kidding you got 93 97 year old men and women walking up 30 plus degree slopes 10 blocks to go to church four blocks over to the market four blocks back home um there's no such thing as elevators there there's no thing is assisted care of living
• 17:00 - 17:30 facilities assisted care of living is Mom and Dad move back in with the kids until they pass away and what does that do it gives mom and dad a sense of purpose even if their only purpose is to go out to the garden and get vegetables for that night's dinner right or they make you know Dad's 105 years old and he's still make it belts for the community they have a purpose they have actually some some some meaning and so sense of purpose Mobility to in later in life and Whole Foods that's what you get from the blue zones we should adopt those philosophies here now be dogmatic about dieting right but but eat Whole
• 17:30 - 18:00 Foods and move our ass right mean we we regulate everything our air temperature our lighting our temperature in our car the temperature in our office the temperature in our home the you know if you want to make your house the surface of the Sun at 1 o'clock in the morning you can just turn all the lights on right I mean it's a very unnatural we've gotten so far out of just the natural circadian rhythm of life so when when Jesse was or Jesse or Jessica was asking about um you know my tips for living a
• 18:00 - 18:30 long life and improving your cognitive function it would absolutely be Mobility Whole Foods focus on sleep interesting so no more escalators dude I have a thing man my team like when we travel like you get on an escalator you better have a [ __ ] ton of baggage that you can't carry up the steps right I can't stand it d i I won't take them just cuz everybody gets on and they just stand there and the phone comes out and they look at it like it's called aile walkway flight you know but uh but uh they just get on it stand y get
• 18:30 - 19:00 on the escalator stand literally everybody stand everybody does yeah we do like intermittent standing crazy intermittent standing even though I'm excited for the new Administration there's a lot of tension in the world Russia Ukraine the Border inflation who knows what could happen next me I'm not waiting around to find out and I don't think you should either look it's simple I want you to go to Sha gold.com you'll learn about my

• 21:00 - 21:30 people don't realize how many how many tens of billions of dollars a year of financial services products are sold and put in force based on when people are going to die I mean life insurance being the obvious reverse mortgages um uh annuities um you know so an annuity for example is you write a check to the insurance company they guarantee you an income stream for Life what do you think they do use to guarantee how long they're going to pay you your your
• 21:30 - 22:00 mortality um when a life insurance company puts 10 million or 25 million or 50 million or $1 million worth of risk on your life only one thing matters you how many more months do you have left on Earth so insurance companies don't care where you are on an Actuarial curve right everybody listening to this podcast is on one if you're a 34 year old male you have a life expectancy of x if you're a 51y old female you have a life expectancy of why you go apply for a jumbo life insurance policy which is the area that I worked in you know above
• 22:00 - 22:30 $10 million in face value if you if you ask the insurance company to put $10 million to 20 or 30 million 50 million of risk on your life you better believe that there's somebody in the back room they're not putting you on an Actuarial curve they're looking at your specific mortality telling the insurance company how many more months does this person have left on Earth and I get a lot of flack for this because people say well if you could predict you know we were talking about this earlier if you could predict mortality to the month you know you would have won a Nobel Prize Prize or You' be Jesus but I promise you I'm
• 22:30 - 23:00 Not Jesus and I never want to Noel prize but it is it is some of the most accurate science in the world if you want to know how accurate insurance companies are in predicting death just look at what happened during the 2008 2009 Financial Services crisis we had 364 Banks fail not one life insurance company failed [ __ ] not one right there're some of the most solvent institutions in the world and yet they will take tens of millions of dollars worth of risk on one variable how many
• 23:00 - 23:30 more months do you have left on Earth if you die early they lose so they're very accurate at predicting life expectancy well what do they use to predict life expectancy I'll tell you the three things they don't use which is modern medicine hates this they don't use randomize clinical trials they don't take big pharmers trial that says that LDL cholesterol leads to cardiovascular disease which leads to early death and so you need to be on this this pharmaceutical they use Big Data hundreds of millions of lives and they
• 23:30 - 24:00 know the day the date the time the location and the cause of death for 370 plus Million Lives and so when you know Day date time location and cause of death you can triangulate that back into the record and you can say okay what are what are the sequence of events that lead to early death so if I got 10 years of medical records on you and 10 years of demographic data we could tell the insurance company how long you had to live to to the month and and based on these life
• 24:00 - 24:30 expectancies institutions would take hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars in in risk and they were very very accurate and so um when when you look at that data you know the Epiphany that I had was you know I sort of woke up one day and was like what am I doing you know I'm reading medical records for a living I've read hundreds if not thousands of times more Medical records than a practicing physician because
• 24:30 - 25:00 they're practicing medicine they're not reading records I just read records I'm not a physician for the record I'm not licensed to practice medicine I'm a human biologist um but I just read medical records for a living thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands of medical records and we would put these into a model and we would use it to predict the onset of death and what became glaringly apparent was that the reason why the majority of people are not living longer healthier happier more fulfilling lives are because of something called modifiable
• 25:00 - 25:30 risk factors so had it not been against the law for me to pick up the phone and contact the patient contact the client um I could have on average added seven years to those people's lives no kidding no question because because we have lost faith in humanity and Mankind and the body's ability to heal itself and and and the expression of deficiency in the body so for example um if if you were to to pull the blood of all of your listeners you'd find that there's
• 25:30 - 26:00 hundreds of vitamins in their bloodstream their body can only make one when God made us he made us with the ability to make one vitamin single vitamin so how important do you think this vitamin is to human health if it's the only one that we make on our own okay this vitamin is called vitamin D3 called a calciferol we make it from sunlight and cholesterol you don't need to eat you don't need to drink you don't need to do anything you need to expose your skin to sunlight and have cholesterol in your bloodstream to make vitamin D3 so so 50% of the world's population's clinically deficient in
• 26:00 - 26:30 this nutrient 85% of the African-American and Latino populations darker complected populations clinically deficient in this nutrient so what happens when you're missing the most important in my opinion the most important single raw material in the human body well um vitamin D3 deficiency was the second leading cause of morbidity in covid um vitamin D3 deficiency is highly linked to brittle bone disease osteopenia osteoporosis um um autoimmune conditions also compromised immune systems and so here's
• 26:30 - 27:00 a nutrient that we make on our own that's very easy to supplement with by the way and deficiency in this nutrient has this all of these expressions of these different diseases so um you know your listeners might not be aware that the the number one killer of human beings in the world is cardiovascular disease the number two killer of human beings in the world is cancer the number three killer of human beings in the world is modern medicine it's medical
• 27:00 - 27:30 error number three the number three killer of human beings the third leading cause of death is medical error if you want to look up the 2016 study it was done by Harvard University just Google 2016 Harvard University um uh study on medical error um it was repeated by John Hopkins I think in 2019 and it got worse so they published The Harvard study so what does this mean it means that medical error is the third leading cause of death and now when you realize medical ER is a third
• 27:30 - 28:00 leading cause of death it's like wow that's kind of shocking Until you realize that it's the third leading cause of death in the industry designed to prevent death like if you translated that to any other industry it'd be laughable right I mean if you sold home security systems but you were the third leading cause of home invasion you'd probably be out of business right I mean if if you were a roofer but you were the third leading cause of roof collapse you know it just it'd be laughable if we if we applied
• 28:00 - 28:30 that to any other industry but this is where we go to get our advice on on how to be healthy optimally healthy when we should be going there for catastrophic medicine we're very good at heart attacks hemorrhages you know gunshot wounds knife wounds broken arms we're we're very very good at crisis medicine what we're not good at is is um keeping people healthy and and and and so just to take this one step further so you have this nutrient vitamin D3 which we get from sunlight and cholesterol we've been totally taught to fear the sun
• 28:30 - 29:00 right the truth is most of us are not getting enough sun it's not we're getting too much sun we're not getting enough Sun um we've been taught to just absolutely shield oursel from the Sun and what's interesting if you actually overlay the incidence of skin cancer with the parabolic rise and the use of sunscreens these are superimposable right since 2018 23 brands of sunscreen have been pulled from the market for directly causing skin cancer and yet we've been taught to Fe the Sun and so we don't get sunlight or D3 drops you know like we we've
• 29:00 - 29:30 developed sayings around this like uh don't go outside in the winter time you'll catch a cold okay there's no such thing as catching a cold first of all that's a fallacy um going outside in the winter time is substantially safer than going outside in the summertime because there's a lot more pathogens in warm weather than there are in cold weather there's not bacteria lying around the surface of a 15 degree handrail waiting to infect you the reason why we associate cold with getting sick is because when it's cold we layer up when we layer up we get less sun when we get less Sun our D3 drops when our D3 drops
• 29:30 - 30:00 our immune system's compromised wow yeah so wow it's it's it's just the opposite it's the antithetical way that we've been taught to think how what is this how do this H is this through marketing is that is that how we I mean you think about it yeah absolutely it's through marketing you know a lot of this is fear-based marketing I mean um I mean I don't want to get cancer um so I'm going to put um bisphenols and and um Fates and all kinds of things on my skin to stop the Sun from from reaching my skin
• 30:00 - 30:30 but you got to realize your skin is not a barrier it's a Gateway so if you put it on your skin you should be prepared to eat it I wouldn't put anything on your skin that you wouldn't eat um and so when you think about the amount of disruption that comes from chemicals just being on the skin entering the bloodstream reaks all kinds of Havoc but what I saw in when I was at the insurance agent when I was in the mortality space was in the record you would see this clinical deficiency in vitamin D3 long-term deficiencies in vitamin D3 and you can see it in the blood eventually these people will
• 30:30 - 31:00 present with rheumatoid arthritis like symptoms so what happens when you have a clinical deficiency in vitamin D3 for a prolonged period of time well your immune systems compromised first of all the second thing that happens is you start to develop rheumatoid arthritis like symptoms the soles of your feet are sore and ay when you get out of bed in the morning to walk to the bathroom and take your first pee um you wake up in the morning you feel like you had a really hard workout the night before when you haven't um your your knees your hips your
• 31:00 - 31:30 shoulders and your low back start to ache constantly eventually it's hard to even make a really tight fist well if you go to the wrong primary care physician you describe those symptoms they're going to tell you that you have rheumatoid arthritis do you know how many thousands of times I saw diagnosis of chronic condition like rheumatoid arthritis with no testing no ra factors no blood work no said rates they would just say you know what Sean based on what you're telling me you got rheumatoid arthritis but don't worry I'm going to put you on a corticosteroid okay then a corticosteroid not steroid
• 31:30 - 32:00 like muscles a steroid for anti inflammation like Methotrexate or prazone or meth prazone so now they put you on a steroid the sad thing is for a period of time it works pain goes away right but steroids first they're antiinflammatory but then they eat your joint like a termite so it was so predictable that we knew that six years in one day after you started taking corticosteroids you were going to have a joint replacement and as soon as you had a joint replacement you were going to reduce your ability to be mobile as your
• 32:00 - 32:30 Mobility reduced I could bring in all the diseases that exacerbate with reduced Mobility so now you had a vitamin D3 deficiency got diagnosed with a disease you didn't have put on a medication that wasn't required six years later forced a surgery that was unnecessary that surgery reduced your Mobility as your Mobility dropped all the diseases came from your future to your present you succumbed to a disease you never would have had had because of a condition that you did not have
• 32:30 - 33:00 because of a medication that wasn't required because of a simple nutrient deficiency holy [ __ ] so it's a Snowball Effect it's a snowball effect but had I been able to pick up the phone I get goosebumps even just telling you the stories but um because I I think about it a lot um you know had I been able to just pick up the phone and call these people and say Hey listen I'm not a doctor stop taking the Methotrexate take 5,000 IAS of vitamin D3 with micrograms in K2 wa three months like um you know
• 33:00 - 33:30 then then I could have a Demas of impact on these people's lives and so at some point I just I just abruptly resigned from that industry and I went home and told my girlfriend at the time it was now my wife um uh I said hey I I want to I quit my job today first of all um thought I'd throw that at you and uh I want to start a wellness clinic I want sort of functional medicine clinic she's like you're not even a doctor I was like I'll
• 33:30 - 34:00 find a doctor and I did Dr camport if you're listening and in uh in nabal Florida he was he was one of the longest practicing anesthesiologists in nabal Florida and thank God for him because he took a he took a bet on me you know if you don't mind I'd like to divulge a little bit more into that because uh sure and and we don't have to I don't you know we don't want to but but when I went on your podcast asked you kind of told me the story a little bit more in depth and and I just want to
• 34:00 - 34:30 say like it's very commendable and and uh very Noble of of you how you left the insurance company yeah and uh it sound like it came down to a single patient or maybe not a patient but a a one of the insurance customers and so could you go into that a little bit more in depth yeah uh it's a tough one
• 34:30 - 35:00 um but I was working on a Case uh on a woman that was getting a she was she had a large life insurance policy she was actually selling and um she was transferring care between cardiologists uh she was in the Midwest and she was uh transferring to her winter home in Miami and um there's something called the medical information Bureau and it's meant to catch like people that are painting medication surfing narcotic surfing or or or or contraindications
• 35:00 - 35:30 between meds and the physician in uh Miami had put a script into the record that was a contraindication meaning it was going to cause a a a high chance of causing a thrombotic event like a blood clot stroke and embolism and um and so I saw what she was taking I saw was waiting for her um and so I went into Human Resources you know
• 35:30 - 36:00 at the time and and said uh um hey I'm I'm contacting this lady right I mean we were not allowed to have any contact with the client the applicant the treating physician for the right reason again I'm not licensed to practice medicine so you know having me call up and try to make an opinion on their medical care isn't isn't right but they were very not only disinterested in having me contact that patient I got threatened with
• 36:00 - 36:30 prosecution and um so I knew at some point that this lady was going to get on the plane go to her winter home she was going to pick up that script and she was going to have a a a thrombotic event so she was going to either have embolism blood clot uh you know stroke some kind of clotting event and um and just the callousness with which I
• 36:30 - 37:00 was told not to contact the patient and and uh you know that I would be potentially prosecuted if I if I did that was the final straw for me that that's really what forced my resignation um and I think about that lady a lot um I still to this day don't know what happened I don't know if the physician caught it but I also think about how many years I gave to that industry and I was just so opic you know I was I was very selfish I was just
• 37:00 - 37:30 concerned about trying to be wealthy and you know and um I was doing very well in that industry so I had kind of a lot of accolades and and things but I was doing nothing in service for of humanity you know I had real knowledge on how to help people live healthier happier longer you know more fulfilling lives and I was just watching these train wrecks happen it was like it was like sitting behind a thick glass wall and just watching blind people walk into traffic and and when you read a certain
• 37:30 - 38:00 number of medical records you see these patterns start to emerge and you're like you could just start the record and you just knew exactly where the record was going to end like oh here comes the joint replacement oh here comes they they're on the they're on the beta blocker there comes the blood thinner and the next thing to follow is the anti-depressant because of the cholesterol medication and now they're on an SSRI and there comes the suicidal ideations there comes the therapy like you could you could just map out the consequences in in the medical record
• 38:00 - 38:30 and say gosh this person had a little bit of elevated level of LDL cholesterol then they got then they got put on a a Statin it started to drive the cholesterol down then then the brain fog and the short-term recall and the and the cognitive function starts to decline and then the depression starts to creep in and now they're on an SSRI and as they become less mobile their hematocrite viscosity of their blood seemed to to to to go up and they're on the blood thinner and the pressure starts to rise and then they're on a a
• 38:30 - 39:00 beter blocker an ace inhibit or calcium channel blocker and the next thing you know it's just this massive chemical soup right just trying to regulate all of these processes in the body trying to regulate blood pressure over here and mood over here and blood viscosity over here and pain over here and cholesterol over here and nobody's ever really studied the the consequences of putting all of this into the same biome we study things in isolation in medicine very often you know randomized clinical trials are isolated trials where we're
• 39:00 - 39:30 only looking at one medication for one outcome in a control group but we're actually not studying human beings or their cells in the environment that they exist right these cells exist in communities you can't take cell out of the body put it in a Petri dish look how it behaves in a lab and then assume when you put that cell back into the body that it's going to behave the same way nothing is further from the truth and this is why we run in these 20e Cycles where we we do a randomized clinical trial drug gets approved we we push drug on the market then 10 years later we realize we made a really grave mistake
• 39:30 - 40:00 we got hundreds of thousands of people dying from this drug we got hundreds of thousand people now addicted to this drug and now they can't get the drug so now they're on the street like they say that opiates is a is a rich man's addiction and heroin's a poor man's addiction and and it's very true you know a lot of people didn't they didn't wake up one day and decided they were going to be an addict they woke up one day and wanted to feel normal and in the search for normaly they and addiction and now they're running from a low
• 40:00 - 40:30 they're not running towards a high so most and and so I saw these cycles and I was like this [ __ ] is all wrong I mean you know if if we could if I could have just picked up the phone and called half of these people and said you you need to you need to stop taking this uh in my opinion stop taking the court go steroid get get off the stat and because we we use big data so there was a lot of um popularity of marginally increased
• 40:30 - 41:00 levels for example of LDL cholesterol which has been vilified in my opinion wrongfully um you know and and if you had high levels of LDL cholesterol you were automatically had this crazy risk high risk for cardiovascular disease so we would smash the cholesterol down in these really low numbers we put you on all kinds of uh cholesterol mitigating drugs and what we would see not infrequently in nearly every case is you would Downstream you would see the consequences of not having this this uh
• 41:00 - 41:30 compound in the body cholesterol by the way is made by the liver 85% of the cholesterol in your blood is manufactured by the liver it doesn't come from diet only 15% of the cholesterol in your blood comes from diet and most people don't realize that cholesterol is not a fuel source it's it's a construction material we use it to build every cell wall every cell membrane we use it to make hormones we use to make vitamin D3 you make choc calciferol from cholesterol so when you drive this down the brain the majority of the brain is cholesterol all of a sudden you start to see cognitive impairment you see erectile
• 41:30 - 42:00 dysfunction you see hormone disregulation why because you make hormones from cholesterol um and yet we're linking it to cardiovascular disease but but there there's no clinical evidence that it just seems to jump out of the bloodstream and magically stick to the arterial wall or magically pass through the arterial wall it has to be called to that location there has to be an inflammatory cycle there has to be something that initiates its arrival you know cholesterol is kind of like the fireman it shows up when there's a fire it gets called to the site of
• 42:00 - 42:30 inflammation it didn't start the fire so the notion that if we had fewer firemen we'd have less fires doesn't make any sense but that's what modern medicine would want you to believe that if we had fewer firemen we'd have fewer fires that's not true and so we found no correlation between elevated levels of LDL cholesterol and cardiovascular disease or early death in fact we found the opposite we found in most of the centenarians in fact all the cerian Death claims that I processed people
• 42:30 - 43:00 living above age 100 without an exception in my career um they had clinically elevated levels of LDL cholesterol at the time of their death because many of them died in nursing homes and we had blood work on them so if people that had the highest cholesterol were living the longest then why were we trying to push this compound down well I mean cholesterol medications is one of the most profitable pharmaceutical compounds until the vaccine came along one of the most profitable compounds to ever hit modern Humanity I mean in in in the
• 43:00 - 43:30 50s and 60s the you know cholesterol levels were in the 260s that was the optimal level of cholesterol um so if you were to ask me what's the optimal level of cholesterol today 260 but what what do lap results say well LDL cholesterol shouldn't be above um uh you know 99 as soon as it gets above 99 you get to 120 you're on Statin um and now you're taking away one of the compounds that not only forms the brain but reduces inflammation which repairs damage in the body which makes hormones
• 43:30 - 44:00 which makes um cell walls and cell membranes and vitamin D3 and you're and you're getting rid of it well there's consequences to that right so this is what I mean it's like we've gotten so far away we've created an an industrial complex that is built on a profit Center of disease you know type 2 diabetes in the United States is $10 billion dollar industry 110 billion um in profit a year from type two diabetes so just imagine whether or not there's there's a meeting
• 44:00 - 44:30 going on in some boardroom to to to put that industry out of business there's not right we want people to suffer over a prolonged period of time we don't want you to die early we want you to suffer for a prolonged period of time and if you look at how Pharmaceuticals have crept into the hamster wheel of society and younger and younger and younger and younger ages now we start we start on the hamster wheel of of of of Pharma you come out of the womb and you have barely even taken your first breath you got
• 44:30 - 45:00 uyin in your eyes and you're being given a hepatitis B vaccine well what's Hepatitis B it's a sexually transmitted virus or it's transmitted through intravenous drug usage what are the chances that a newborn fetus is going to be having sexual intercourse or using IV drugs none what are the incidences of hepatitis B in in in um prepubescent um teens all the way down to infants zero unless the mother had it at Birth which you know because you can tissue type them and I can give you hundreds of examples like this but we we have we
• 45:00 - 45:30 have just bathed our cellular biology in a toxic soup we we are on the the the Pharma bandwagon from the time we come out of out of the womb I think there's 79 vaccines on the vaccine schedule now this time in the 50s or is eight um we have pandemics of autism pandemics of chronic disease we spend $4 and a. half trillion dollars a year on Healthcare and we are the sickest fattest most disease Rd Nation on the planet we lead the world not only in medical are spending but we lead the world in six major categories infant mortality
• 45:30 - 46:00 maternal mortality the lowest life expectancy at Birth of any other Civilized Nation the next 60 civilized Nations um we lead the world in morbid obesity type 2 diabetes and multiple chronic disease in a single biome and yet we spend four and a half trillion dollars a year on Healthcare 77% by the way I will I I will put the links any of these quotes that I say because we're going to get hammered for this by the media um if if if I make any one of these statements I'm I'm going to give
• 46:00 - 46:30 you the link so you can put it in the show notes thank you right from the Department of Defense 77% of our military aged men and women cannot pass a simple physical exam to enter the military 77% that means 3/4 of our military age population cannot serve in the military because they are not physically capable of entering military service and passing a basic exam wow why is that I mean how how did we get so deconditioned how why is it that the
• 46:30 - 47:00 majority of of teenagers can't do a 30second dead hang can't sit on one foot high box jump and stand up can't run a mile in less than nine minutes can't do 20 unbroken push-ups or 20 unbroken sit-ups it's it's because we are aggressively pursuing you know comfort so I don't know how I got down this this this tangent I got on a real Soap Box there and I apologize but um what's happening now is like and I think this happens in all areas of society is like the pendulum just swings
• 47:00 - 47:30 too far and I think people say enough right I mean pretty soon when we don't have any men and women that are physically capable of entering the military or when we realize we have the highest rate of Childhood Cancer in recorded history when we realize that for the first time in recorded history our life expectancy is going backwards um then somebody will take a hold of our public policy and begin to implement the kind of simple changes that could save
• 47:30 - 48:00 us from this pathway that we're on right now which includes a lot of things like getting rid of the corruption in our um our you know our research institutions I mean 93% of of of of the fda's board has a conflicts of interest with big Pharma and big food when you look at our nutritional research 74% of this is funded by food and Pharma which is why Lucky Charms is is shown to be more nutritious than grass-fed steak it's why they say that highly processed foods um we don't have enough data to say whether
• 48:00 - 48:30 or not highly processed foods are having a uh you know negative effect on on society so we highly highly process our our our foods and and and and yet we have an industry that is profiting trillions of dollars on the backs of the pandemic of disease that this this you know food supply creates and so by getting us back to the basics we can circumvent that entire system going online unprotected is like leaving

• 51:30 - 52:00 want to say you know what you told me I mean for anybody listening Gary is one of the most authentic people I've ever met and uh you you stand behind every product and we had a long conversation about that downstairs and and you know I've been talking about this Yuka app I think I brought it up on your podcast and I brought it up on Joe's pod Joe Rogan's podcast and I actually reached out to try to partner with them and they they don't have the fun to to do it but I don't I don't [ __ ] care man because
• 52:00 - 52:30 whatever they're doing you know is it's helping educ re-educate the population about you know hey this is all the [ __ ] that's in your food all you have to do is download that app it's free you scan a barcode and it first thing tells you is these are all the additives this is what it does in your this is what it does and you know and then all the other health stuff is below the additives but I've been me and my wife redid our entire Kitchen on that and it's just a great way to educate the population and
• 52:30 - 53:00 I know that's uh OB I mean that's your whole that's what you do and uh you do want to help people and so I just I want to plug that but um but moving on you know we were just talking about vaccinations and kids and this is something that my wife and I go round and round about we don't know what to do we don't know who to trust we ever since Co I have I have zero zero zero confidence in anything that the US
• 53:00 - 53:30 government tells me nothing in fact it's so bad and I know this isn't the right thing to do but it's almost like I do the opposite it's like they say do this [ __ ] that I'm doing this you know like they're obviously lying I'm not doing it you know oh you say that's good for me it's probably [ __ ] horrible right and um you know but but with that being said it's it's it's atrocious nobody really knows where to find truth in in in a variety of of of topics and genres and
• 53:30 - 54:00 but at the Forefront of all of this uh in my family because I have two little kids and um we don't know what to do with the vaccinations yeah and I'll send you a good book on on on the good vaccine schedule I mean what what are are there any good vaccines yes so first of all you know we have to take a step back for a second and and and the way we before Co the way we defined vaccines was you know the these these were designed to prevent the infection and
• 54:00 - 54:30 the spread which initially we were told it would prevent the infection then we're were like oh people are still getting Co and then we were told it would prevent the spread and they were like oh well it's still spreading covid and then we said it would reduce the severity of symptoms and then we actually found out that it didn't um and so we used to make vaccine so first of all vaccine used to prevent the infection and prevent the spread if you get the polio vaccine you not only don't catch polio you also don't spread polio right um but uh so we redefined that to mean that it it prevented the severity
• 54:30 - 55:00 of symptoms from you know from that virus the other thing we used to do is we used to make vaccines and some in some cases we still do out of what's called attenuated viruses you know virus is not a living thing it's it's it's an envelope right like a nucleocapsid protein so imagine an envelope and it has DNA inside of it okay but it's not living what it needs to do is it needs to go up to a cell healthy cell and sort of attached to that cell and inject its DNA okay when it's like a zombie almost
• 55:00 - 55:30 I mean it's pretty pretty medieval attaches to the cell injects its DNA and sort of takes over the function of that cell now that cell is infected so what we used to do is we would attenuate the viruses we would take the DNA out right and then we would still put the envelope into your body and so we would put the polio virus in your body without the DNA so you couldn't actually catch polio but your immune system would see that that envelope that nuclear caps a protein it would manufacture an antibody so then we
• 55:30 - 56:00 said um somebody B Pharma came up with the idea that we could do them cheaper and in Mass if we actually made synthetic copies of the DNA so just if if you if you just a quick basic lesson on cellular biology if if you look at a cell if you go through the wall of a cell and you cross the cytoplasm you find the nucleus inside the nucleus is the DNA and the DNA is the boss that's the head hun right the CEO DNA is running the show it has two broad um um
• 56:00 - 56:30 roles one is replication it makes an exact copy of itself okay but the other one is called transcription it literally writes messages into the cell it tells the cell what to do just like a CEO is giving orders to the board and all of the minions in the company it's telling everybody what to do the DNA is doing that through two it's sending messages from the nucleus of the cell out into the cell to tell the cell organiz what to do those messages are called mRNA
• 56:30 - 57:00 messenger RNA okay when they're organic they leave the nucleus they go into the cytoplasm of the cell and they give a command and they essentially dissolve what we did was we made a synthetic copy of that message um and I haven't I'm I'm not currently up to all of the research but I know that um we have been able to pick up those synthetic copies at least two years after being vaccinated so what does this mean it means means that the message to make the spike protein which
• 57:00 - 57:30 would normally come from the DNA has been synthetically copied and so that message goes to the cell and it says make the spike protein you make a little Spike protein that organel comes back to its desk the message is still there make the spike protein it comes back to its test make the spike protein comes back to its test make the spike protein make the spike protein make the spike protein which spills through the cytoplasm of the cell out into the serum of the blood can embed itself into the arterial wall caus a diffuse Myriad of symptoms called diffuse vasculitis which is essentially
• 57:30 - 58:00 a term for or distonia vasculitis inflammation of the blood vessel um it can also cause things like thrombolytic thrombocytopenia which is abnormal platelet clotting it shows up generally in the heart first because this is the most bio you know this is the most active area of the body so you get myocarditis pericarditis which was the first symptoms that we saw but now we're seeing Downstream consequences because what happens when you take the surface area of the line of your blood vessel most people think that the skin is the largest organ in the body the skin has
• 58:00 - 58:30 the surface area of about half a tennis court the inside lining of your blood vessel of which you have 63,000 mil of blood vessel in your body has the surface area of about six tennis courts so it's 12 times the surface area so what if you get inflammation in all of this surface area well now you've interrupted the most important barrier in the body that you cannot get contents from the blood nutrients from the blood into the tissue you can't get waste from the tissue back into the blood so this exchange leads to this diffuse Myriad of symptoms which we are not linking in my
• 58:30 - 59:00 opinion to the vaccine imagine the vaccine being the Hub of the wheel and you have all of these symptoms you have mood disorders you have cardiovascular conditions trigal neuralgia transverse myelitis you have hormone imbalances so you have all of these spokes right leaving the Hub of the wheel what's the commonality between them and you know now we have conditions we're calling long covid which I think is synonymous with vaccine injury um and and so we have this diffuse Myriad of Downstream
• 59:00 - 59:30 consequences where people have mood numbness um weight gain water retention joint pain uh neurological symptoms memory loss impaired focus and concentration mental um conditions which we're diagnosing as other mental um illnesses um fatigue um then we throw these blanket diagnosis at them like chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia and we're not linking this back to um the vaccine which very often it can be so the whole point with the vaccines is
• 59:30 - 60:00 I I sort of felt like this was like a gene experiment almost like because we were we're we're we're copying the the the DNA and using a synthetic copy of that to send a message without knowing what the long-term consequences of that were now I'm not qualified to make that statement either for the record um because we don't have enough data neither is anyone else there's no scientist on the planet that can tell you what the long-term consequences of mRNA vaccination is because we just
• 60:00 - 60:30 don't have the data operation warp speed waved the safety trials it didn't wave the development of the vaccine it waved the safety trials that normally protect the public from these things being released before we actually have a suitable data set and again I'm not pointing the finger on these you know we're in a pandemic I assume everybody was trying to do the right thing but this is why we have such a distrust for the elites now because we realize hey maybe they don't have our best interest at heart and this is why I'm saying that you know I believed more at the time in what God gave us than what man made us I was like well what is the mortality rate
• 60:30 - 61:00 well the survival rate of this is like 99.7% I mean they they they 100% don't have our best interest we just went over this with the insurance companies you know that they're the well they definitely don't you know so I mean they're the elites they do not have our best interest you know it's I I I sit on the board of the NFL Alumni Association athletica and and um there's like 20 20 or 22,000 members in the NL Alumni Association these are retired NFL athletes I remember when the when it
• 61:00 - 61:30 when the pandemic first started and I was like okay this is a very non-scientific non uh non-medical opinion but um you know there are nose tackles retired nose tackles that I know that I've met these guys are 6 feet 6 6' 7 inches tall they walk around about 320 lbs and and I also had a 5-year-old niece who's 47 lbs I go you will never convince me that these two people get the exact same dose of the exact same
• 61:30 - 62:00 thing and have the exact same reaction this guy looks like he at a water buffalo for lunch you know she's 47 lbs you mean I put the same thing into both of their bodies and they both have the same reaction same amount same bodies same reaction you'll never convince me of that that was that was just my initial uh you know filter um I hadn't even dug really into the science and then I just went deep down the rabbit hole of the science of the spike proteins and and synthetic messaging and and you know really didn't like what I see but again I'm not a physician not a
• 62:00 - 62:30 theologist not really qualified to take that position um so I didn't vaccinate the family or let any of the people that I loved get get get anywhere near it um and I started messaging people about listen you guys should be taking zinc methylated multivitamins high doses of vitamin D3 getting sunlight moving your body um you know hydrating your body building building the defense mechanisms that the body has um because in my opinion that's our best way to you know combat what what was going on it turns
• 62:30 - 63:00 out that her immunity actually turned out to be what ended the pandemic I mean what what what would your advice for for for for parents be like me I mean here here's what I deal with we go to the pediatrist and they tell us you have to get these vaccines or we won't see your kids I know now my kids's not in network what the [ __ ] am I supposed to do if he gets really sick or he breaks his arm or where am I going yeah well nobody will take me that's the shame because majority of that pediatrician's office
• 63:00 - 63:30 revenue is driven by those vaccine visits because they're on the schedule so they know every kid is going to have a certain number of visits um that that that they can bill for and they build those those visits for vaccinations then they shame parents and you know through the public school system and through um you know the PED pedi your pediatrician will shame you into what's not doing the right thing for your kid but when you start to drill into well why was my given a vaccine against a sexually transmitted disease that's also
• 63:30 - 64:00 transmitted by intravenous drug use when the mother didn't have that Hepatitis B at the you know they tissue typed my wife um they the viral tested my wife she didn't have haveb why did why did you vaccinate my kid against a non statistically nonviable risk a lot of these um uh the same thing is true with with tetanus I mean if you look at the at um the the number of um kids or or or sub4 5year olds I actually think it's sub 72y olds that have died from a cut from a rusty nail it's zero you you to
• 64:00 - 64:30 see any statistical validity you got to be over 72 75 years old we're we're vaccinating against these why are we vaccinating against um shingles shingles is not something that you catch it's not a virus that you catch it's a virus you've always had it's it's um shingles is is you know mono as a child coming back as as shingles just like Epstein bar is not a virus that you catch Epstein bar is um sorry EP bar was um mono as a child coming back as Epstein bar shingles is chickenpox that you had
• 64:30 - 65:00 as a child coming back as as shingles so I think a lot of times we're led to believe that we catch these viruses that these viruses happen to us they don't they happen within us if you look at a strand of human DNA only only 60% of an average strand of human DNA is human 40% of our DNA is viral 40% of every one of our DNA strands is viral so what does this mean it means that every time your DNA unzips and reips we silence those viruses How is it that you could have had Mono in 8th grade and I can still
• 65:00 - 65:30 tell when you're 50 years old that you had Mono soz I can actually look for the antibodies I can look for something called IGG antibodies um what are those antibodies doing and so what happens is that when the DNA unzips and it reips those viruses are silenced what happens is our immune system weakens as our immune system weakens we become more susceptible to these viruses not happening to us happening with in us so when our immune system is weak wow we get shingles we didn't catch shingles we
• 65:30 - 66:00 always had it was the chickenpox virus we got epsteam bar and what happened how did I get Epstein bar well mono came back as Epstein bar ring you could go through a whole sequence of these so by strengthening the immune system is the best way to build immunity to these um pathogens you know when you weaken the immune system you start to come up with things like autoimmune disease you know if if you if you have an autoimmune condition for example what let's say uh
• 66:00 - 66:30 Hashimoto or um uh Crohn's disease or sugarin or any number of autoimmune diseases what you're led to believe is you woke up one day and your immune system decided to attack this tissue in the body so if you have Crohn's disease for example you woke up one day and your immune system is manufacturing antibodies to the colon well why did my immune system just decide to attack the colon first of all I think we should take a step back and say I'm going to assume that God didn't make mistake I'm actually going to assume that the immune system is acting properly and I just need to figure out why is it attacking
• 66:30 - 67:00 the colon I'm not just going to assume that my immune system went haywire one morning and just decided to attack my colon or went haywire one day and decided to attack my thyroid now I have Hashimoto or attack my lacrimal gland in my eye and I've got sugarin what I'm going to assume is the immune system is there for a reason and I want to figure out why it's there and if you look at functional medicine um a lot of functional medicine doctors will tell you and again I'm not a physician that there is only a single cell layer separating you from your inside World from your outside world so your
• 67:00 - 67:30 intestinal tract is outside of your body the tube runs through your body but it's external to your body it's actually contiguous with the back of your forearm you could follow this skin inside your mouth all the way down and right out the rectum so what separates you from your outside world is a single layer of cells one one cell layer if this cell layer is disrupted contents from your G will leak through the gut and they will get into it's called leaky gut they will get into
• 67:30 - 68:00 an area of the body the outside the luminal wall of the gut or into the bloodstream where it doesn't belong and where's your immune system 70% of our immune system sitting right outside of our gut and the reason why 70% of our immune system is sitting right here is because that's where all the action is and so if you have a leaky gut and you have pathogens and bacteria and contents from the gut leaking into the bloodstream the immune system shows up and when something hides in your like like just to sort of give you a a visual if if this is a heavy metal or a virus
• 68:00 - 68:30 or a pathogen okay and it's going to hide right it's and it's leaks out of your gut and this is a healthy cell it doesn't Park itself next to the cell like this it Parks itself right there it hides inside the cell so what happens when you have these contents move into a cell the immune system is chasing that right now it's inside the cell so what is it do it manufactures an antibody to that cell not to kill the cell but to get to
• 68:30 - 69:00 that right so if you help the body find this The Heavy Metal the mold Spore the MotoX the virus the bacteria and you support the immune system and seal and heal the gut you see very often these these autoimmune diseases that people are diagnosed with where they're put on immunosuppressants and they're put on massive amounts of corticosteroids or or or or or or steroid anti-inflammatories is because we're holding the immune system responsible for a crime it didn't commit it's actually there acting in
• 69:00 - 69:30 your best interest and we're suppressing it so you know and Crohn's disease and I'm not saying this for all Crohn's disease I don't know why I just picked that one but you know you you you interrupt the Integrity of the gut pathogens leak out the immune system attacks them and now we go that you've got an autoimmune disease WoW instead of saying Hey listen why don't we do the viral testing the bacterial testing why don't we do why don't we actually heal and seal and fix your gut and and and we know now for example that the gut is the Gateway it's we even call it our second
• 69:30 - 70:00 brain the reason why we call it our second brain is because our mood and our emotional state um our focus our concentration our awareness our alertness these are controlled amongst other things by neurotransmitters in our brain the majority of which are made in our gut you know for decades we we followed something called the serotonin hypothesis of depression so the serotonin hypothesis is of depression which was the widely dominant um hypothesis and depression was if you are
• 70:00 - 70:30 low on serotonin You Are by definition depressed okay so if the definition of depression is low serotonin then why isn't the fix to raise serotonin right because that's not what we do for the most people that are depressed we put them on selective serotonin retic Inhibitors we put them on ssris and ssris for lack of better words they bind to a receptor in the brain they slow the uptake of of of serotonin so basically they're rationing what little serotonin you have so it's a form of rationing so
• 70:30 - 71:00 because it's it's not allowing the brain to uptake it and the theory is well if you don't use it too fast you don't go off a cliff right but if we just took a step back and said well where serotonin come from well 90% of the serotonin in our bodies is in our is right here if you don't have it here you can't have it here so is it possible that depression actually begins here rather than in our outside environment interesting right and so if 90% of the serotonin which by the way travels up
• 71:00 - 71:30 the Vegas nerve goes into the brain creates mood creates emotion if you said to me what's a mood what's an emotional state I would tell you it's a collection of neurotransmitters if you're deficient in a neurotransmitter you can't manufacture a mood and now you have a mood disorder you have a mental illness you don't have a mental illness you have a deficiency right if I if I went to any of the anybody that's listening to this podcast right now just sucked the dopamine out of their body or suck the the U I suck the serotonin neurotransmitter out of their body any
• 71:30 - 72:00 mood that required that neurotransmitter they couldn't manufacture well they would be told that they had a mental illness or they had a mental um disease or they had a mood disorder the truth is they have a deficiency why wouldn't we look to fix the gut to restore the serotonin so that the brain has adequate levels so you can express normal mooth instead of just slotting people into these categories and saying you're mentally ill you're mentally unstable you have a mood disorder as soon as you say that to somebody they accept that and now they accept that they need to be
• 72:00 - 72:30 on a lifetime of medication because something's wrong with their brain or you know or something has happened to them that they can't control right and people are walking around suffering from anxiety from depression no one even tells them what it is you know I I bet there's a vast percentage of your listeners that at some point in their life have either they either are suffering from or they know somebody who is suffering from severe anxiety and I bet they don't have never even been told what it is they'll you ask most um practitioners you know most
• 72:30 - 73:00 Physicians what's anxiety they're going to tell you that they're going to tell you the characteristics of it it's a sensation of fear without the presence of a fear it's a sensation of impending doom without there actually being a threat um you know I'm I'm I'm taking a scenario in the future to worst case scenario when I when that scenario has never happened well those are all the characteristics of it the truth is anxiety and its Genesis is a rise in a class of neurotransmitters called catacol amines
• 73:00 - 73:30 which creates a fight ORF flight like response so if you were able to regulate catacol meines you wouldn't feel fear right if you ask most people that suffer from anxiety 3 questions you'll find out very quickly that it's a deficiency and not coming from their outside environment if you know someone that's suffering from anxiety and you say have you had it on and off throughout your entire lifetime they'll say yes if you say can you point to this specific trigger that causes it they'll say no I can be sitting in a podcast right now
• 73:30 - 74:00 with Sean Ryan and I can just all of a sudden be overwhelmed by anxiety um um and number three if you say well if you've tried anti-anxiety medications did they work they'll say no they made me feel like a zombie you get those questions you know that it's not coming from the outside environment it's coming from right here wow wow so real real quick just rewinding what what advice do you have for parents like me on vaccination um I'm going to put a link um because it's going to be too much to go on here I'm going to put a link to a vaccine
• 74:00 - 74:30 schedule a book that was written by my opinion one of the top MDS phds in the world on what are the what are the viable vaccines and what are the ones um to avoid so you just take his um opinion and he's got all the research and all the cited things and let's just put it in the show notes so you're all all the families can have do you know the name of the book your head um it's it's um it's either called Born immune I think it's called Born immune we'll text you it's either born immune or born immunity but I'm I'm
• 74:30 - 75:00 going to put the link in it's excellent and it's all evidence-based and it's not fearmongering and it gives you the actual statistical variables like you have a point you have up like if you get this vaccination your son or daughter has a higher chance of dying in a motor vehicle accident on the way to school than they do of of dying from this pathogen so you decide if you want to vaccinate against it or not I mean because some of the things that we're vaccinating again are statistic Al completely irrelevant right there's you have a near zero risk we don't vaccinate
• 75:00 - 75:30 against near zero risks there's a risk every time you put your child in the car and go to the grocery store there's a risk you know every time you get on a commercial airplane there's a risk it's a quantifiable risk but you you we should apply the same kind of just common sense standard to vaccination another question followup question a lot of people took the covid vaccine a lot of people regret taking the covid vaccine I can't even believe I'm me admitt this I took the covid vaccine I was worried my son was about to be born Hospital rules I was like
• 75:30 - 76:00 there is no way in hell I'm going to miss the birth of my son and so I took it um because I was worried I would they would they would require it and I would miss the birth of my son and with all the other [ __ ] I've done in my life I went into the drugs all that stuff on your podcast you know I was like well if that didn't kill me this isn't going to [ __ ] kill me right but you know and I don't feel I don't feel like I have any side effect and most people don't I mean just if you got one or two and didn't go down the sequence of boosters it's very likely
• 76:00 - 76:30 that you're you're you're fine but I can tell you what you can do so what I want to ask is is there is there any reversing that is there anything that people can do I've I've heard a lot about this uh actually I'm going to go do plasma exchange M plasma exchange and uh is is there anything people can do to clean their blood or or clean their system out with with with with prior vaccinations yeah so so there're less expensive versions and there are very expensive versions plasma exchange is is
• 76:30 - 77:00 expensive um that's called therapeutic plasma exchange or total plasma exchange and essentially what they do there and I've had it done feels amazing by the way um is they they pull your blood out they run it through a machine they separate your plasma from your whole blood and they actually take your plasma out and they replace it with sterile albumin and so you actually replace the plasma with albumin which is a a sterile fluid that's safe to replace your plasma with because in your plasma aside from platelets and other things
• 77:00 - 77:30 are mold spores mot toxins if you have them viral pathogens heavy metals uh um glyphosate you'll you'll find microplastics um and also Spike protein um so there are lots of things in your in your plasma that kind of hang out in the plasma that can be pro-inflammatory and cause consequences down the road and by exchanging the plasma with the theory is that um um you can get rid of a lot of those consequences um there is also
• 77:30 - 78:00 Dr Mulla um formulated a an over-the-counter capsule that has ninas um brolene and Thulin in it which are are very safe and these are ways of of binding Spike protein and carrying it out of the body you can actually see urinary Spike protein levels drop after tiing these and they're they're inexpensive um they're regular over-the-counter and there are formul for Spike protein detox you can even Google spike protein detox and you'll find ones with
• 78:00 - 78:30 ninas brolene and the thymulin in them those are those are the higher quality Spike protein um detoxifications and you can do pre- and post uh urine Spike protein analyses and you can actually see that you've you've you've reduced it um if you have severe L hauler covid syndrome um and this is not FDA approved um but it's I've seen the clinical evidence on it there are clinics outside the United States some in Tijuana other
• 78:30 - 79:00 parts of the world um where you can do a blood filtration um which is similar to um uh very similar to uh dialysis right where you take blood out of one side of the body you put it back in the other body and it either runs through carbon filtration or Hein binding filters um or other types of of filters and then it puts the plasma and blood back into the body and it actually can pull certain toxic chemicals out so there's plasma exchange uh which I've done uh there's
• 79:00 - 79:30 blood filtration which you do generally out outside the United States uh which I have not done yet but I'm doing it in in December just for General longevity uh purposes and then there are over-the-counter Spike protein detox you can take with the nines the brolene the thuline wow thank you Gary you're awesome on that note quick break let's take a quick break the the economy has been a major burden on Americans wages are flat expenses are up and it keeps getting

• 82:00 - 82:30 gears a little bit okay you know you're You' brought up something about Evolution at the very beginning and we were kind of talking about faith and so I want you to dive into a little bit about Evolution I've never I've never covered this so I would love to hear you know what you have to say about that well I'm a I'm uh not a believer in evolution um at all um and you know I have I have a faith faith-based background you know I actually uh was raised Roman Catholic
• 82:30 - 83:00 and and odly um me too were you really I was who was the worst I'll be honest with you was like I hated church when I was a kid stand up sit down the all Shake Hands half of our Mass was in Latin um but uh my my dad always made me like put on a suit coat you know when I was a little kid and go to go to church so I got pretty far away from the church in like high school and and college um
• 83:00 - 83:30 but in grad school uh an attorney of mine um brought me to a a promisekeepers convention there used to be a Christian men's I might still be around I don't hear much about it anymore but there was a huge Christian men's movement called promisee Keepers and um there was an uh they were hosting an event at Soldier Field this is this is '94 why did he bring you was there something he just no he just thought that you know he thought like every young man was kind of searching and um you know I was in grad
• 83:30 - 84:00 school I was at National College of Chiropractic and I was getting my human biology degree but I think I was probably like every other grad school kid I was partying and you know going out and wasn't particularly responsible and and um I had actually uh just started dating my my first wife um and uh and he was he was my attorney for a actually for a a car accident I got rear ended towing a boat on a uh on the
• 84:00 - 84:30 highway and um we actually struck up a really good friendship he was a really good guy he's kind of kind of a mentor to me and he convinced me that there was like this motivational speakers event happening in Soldier Field and uh he invited it to me and he invited me to it and it turned out to be a promisekeepers convention and it was this Christian men's movement and um I'll never forget like we we we were standing in Soldier Field and 70,000 men uh joined hands and
• 84:30 - 85:00 started to say the Lord's Prayer and I knew the Lord's Prayer because I was raised Roman Catholic and something happened to me I mean first of all I had this just overwhelming Sensation that 70,000 men couldn't be wrong like it went from feeling very odd to feeling like very right um and then for some reason I just broke down and just started like balling
• 85:00 - 85:30 uncontrollably and I wasn't sad I don't I you know now I think that was the Holy Spirit but I I I just started crying uncontrollably and he was calling people down to the stage to give their life to Christ and was that gratitude I think it was gratitude but I think it was also like a sense of relief you know because I I remember leaving there thinking everything I had thought about my upbringing in the church
• 85:30 - 86:00 because the the church that I went to and this is not to you know this is no condemnation of it but it just made you feel like a sinner a lot you know the some of the mass was in Latin the priest was much older um very I felt very narrow-minded um and I was like every time I left church I felt bad about myself and this movement this March was like you can have a direct relationship with Christ you can lay your problems at the foot of
• 86:00 - 86:30 the cross you don't need all of this um superflous surroundings you don't need a church or an institution or a group of people I mean you can get on your knees and just have a direct relationship with Christ and that to me seemed liberating and and I like the idea of Faith because it's it's the idea of delayed gratification and um I think that's dramatically missing in this world me too you know because everybody's into like the instant
• 86:30 - 87:00 gratification and the idea that we're all heading to a better place um and that there is a higher purpose um and so I gave I gave my life to Christ and I won't say that I've been the best Christian ever since 1994 definely definitely done some non-Christian things but um that to me has been very liberating you know I I'm I you know I wake up every day now and I go outside I do my breath work I do some sunlight and I always just take a minute
• 87:00 - 87:30 to thank God and just say Hey listen I'm not here to ask for anything I'm just here to say thank you because I feel for the first time that he God's revealed his purpose to me and I feel like my passion and my purpose you know my career my calling is all kind of aligned itself and it it takes away the a lot of the fears I think Christianity if you realize that if you want to shrink your problems you just grow your purpose and so it's helped me grow my purpose and so the
• 87:30 - 88:00 friction in my life has seemed so much easier to to deal with wow um and and I'm not any more rightous than anybody else I but I I feel such a level of conviction now with my messaging and you know I've had I've had tough Partnerships in the past um not certainly not all my partners fault a lot of it my fault but I just know now that my my purpose on this Earth is to get this
• 88:00 - 88:30 message to the masses well it's working you know thank you it's working and uh and I just you know we we haven't really covered this because you know I I don't really know where to put it and I don't know how much you want to talk about it but when we talk about you know when we're talking you know friendly business how I do things how you do things and and when I hear you know you talk about you've walked away from businesses you've turned advertising deals down you
• 88:30 - 89:00 have you you only you only talk about what you believe in whether you're being paid in or not I mean we just had you know you you would just mention you know a lot of the things that you're shouting out pretty much all of them uh that we've spoken about you get you get nothing out of you know and and I think it's you know this takes a very authentic person to do that and um you know and and thank you it's and I I we share a lot of the
• 89:00 - 89:30 same values and uh there's not a lot of people out there that share those same values and uh it's just it's really cool to see and and you know I I keep bringing up the Yuka thing because that's my that's my latest thing that I'm like really excited about that I would you know love to be in some type of thing but I don't care you know cuz it's like I I do believe that you know it all comes back around and if you inject good into this world then it's
• 89:30 - 90:00 going to come back around to you some other way somehow some other way yeah and um I think that's important you know for people to I know it happens to me you know and uh whether it's it's it's you know one of the things that I really like doing on this podcast is being able to I mean this is how it started cuz I could couldn't couldn't reach people uh like you or you know people that have made a big name for themselves and and
• 90:00 - 90:30 I've always rooted for the underdog and so I'll find the guy that's you know like we were talking about Tyler Andrew Vargas with his knife company and yeah you know to bring his story out and then display what he's doing now to give him a [ __ ] jet launch into into the business world I mean I get nothing out of that yeah I mean I get a friendship and uh in a in a new connection I love Tyler wish the best for that dude and keep in touch with him but you know but that
• 90:30 - 91:00 comes back around you know and and um and you do that too and that's just really [ __ ] cool to see man no thank you I mean I wish more people knew that about you yeah you know I I when I first um you know I I I found it a a wellness clinic um which in with my now wife girlfriend uh in 2017 and um you know it did very well for itself in 2021 you
• 91:00 - 91:30 know we sold it and took on took on some P partners and took on a minority stake and we just we recently exited that um and and then I started a media platform and the reason why I started the podcast was because um I didn't want the message to be controlled you know I wanted to very often give without the expectation of receipt but I also don't want to create the illusion that um you know I'm just running a philanthropy I've done I've done very well for myself financially I mean God's been very very
• 91:30 - 92:00 good to me um but also you know the messaging is is not about any one product or any one service or um you know wearing a certain t-shirt or only messaging about this is the sole and only path to uh you know a state of Optimal Health or to solve your problems and it happens to be through my supplement or my testing or you know only only through my clinics there's so many people out there that are doing incredible work like my heroes are the
• 92:00 - 92:30 phds and the MDS and the researchers and and and the scientists that are actually really making making an impact and one of the things I decided was I'll bu I want to build a you know podcast a media platform um to find the best products the best Services the best people and try to give them a voice and unfortunately that sometimes conflicts with your other you know business endeavors because it may not be the supplement that you manufacture or the test that you require your clients to do
• 92:30 - 93:00 and and I think that gets very myopic right you know when you say there's only one way to Optimal Health and it's through my company through my supplement through my testing through you know there's there are so many people that are doing amazing things for this world some of them I have Financial relationships with like eeko water bottles and and perfect aminos and Baja gold sea salt but I believe deeply in those companies and then others that I find that deserve a voice um that I get no
• 93:00 - 93:30 Financial reward from of any kind I mean half the brands I've shouted out on the podcast so far I have no relationship with at all they thank me all the time um I I get tons of their you know SI tons of stuff to the house but but other than that um and it's because I wish more of us thought about that because the tide raises all the boats and I think that we've been given an a gift in my industry um you know the well functional medicine space you know longevity whatever you want to call it and I think that post pandemic there's such a trust distrust of the global
• 93:30 - 94:00 Elites and people realize that you know what maybe maybe our government and the elites don't have our best interest at heart and I need to I need to take this decision you know I need to take Optimal Health into my own hands I need to become my own citizen scientist but the question is where do they go for messaging there's if you get on the internet you'll get paralysis of analysis when one person tells you the eggs are going to kill you the next person tells you you got to be eat eggs every day you know one person tells you the carnivore diet is the be all end all and the next person tells you it's the fastest way to get cardiovascular
• 94:00 - 94:30 disease so what I'm trying to do is sift through the noise and and be as authentic about that messaging as possible um and a lot of that there's no way to to to monetize and but I think that again that's what that's how I know that I'm on on on God's purpose because this information does not belong to me right it belongs to humanity I'm just sort of blessed enough to have it flow through me and you're a conduit yeah just a conduit right I'm not I'm not I'm
• 94:30 - 95:00 not to genus I didn't come up with it you know it's it's I don't have anything special it's just you know but it but it very often flows through me and and um you know like I made a couple of public announcements on on on Instagram the other day it's still on my Instagram my wife and I sat for three days almost in tears because of the thousands and they're still up on my Instagram thousands and thousands of messages we got from people whose lives had changed um and we didn't know who
• 95:00 - 95:30 they were we had no direct contact with them we'd never benefited from anything we've done just the message hit them at the right time and they either started doing breath work or sunlight or grounding or cold plunging or um you know eating Whole Foods or they got on some of the supplements that I recommended um they stopped believing that they had autoimmune disease or mental illness or um a psychiatric disorder and they actually start Ed focusing on their gut and and and their life completely changed they're like I don't have Crums disase anymore I'm you
• 95:30 - 96:00 know I finally you know started uh started to hack my sleep you know I don't I don't have the mental illness anxiety's gone down 85% um we're able to conceive now because I talk a lot about folic acid and the right supplements that that that that young women are trying to get pregnant on trying to conceive um because miscarriages especially in in young females are highly linked to a gene mutation called MTHFR um affectionately called the [ __ ] Gene but it it stands for methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase
• 96:00 - 96:30 about 44% of the population has this gene mutation and you know the first thing that that women are told when they're when they get pregnant is to take high doses of folic acid and most women don't realize that folic acid is is not a natural compound we've been told it's vitamin B9 it's not we make folic acid in a in a laboratory folic acid doesn't occur anywhere naturally in nature you can't find folic acid anywhere on the surface of the Earth yet how yet it's necessary to have a healthy pregnancy because it reduces neural tube
• 96:30 - 97:00 defects that's actually not true folic acid doesn't reduce anything folic acid has to be converted by the body into the usable form called methyl folate in order to prevent a neural tube defect in order to not have the cell go into something called s-phase arrest so what happens is if 44% of the population has a genetic mutation called MTHFR where they can't process this folic acid and by the way I'll put the link to this to the clinical study that supports what I'm about to say because I get a lot of
• 97:00 - 97:30 flak from this too when you take a synthetic compound that didn't even exist until 1993 and you make it a requirement to have a healthy pregnancy what you're doing is you're assuming that the body would have a deficiency in folic acid which can't no one no one can have a deficiency in folic acid you can have a deficiency in F Aid um but you can't be deficient in a synthetic nutrient and you pump the population full of this um f of acid if you don't have the gene mutation you can create the the raw
• 97:30 - 98:00 material the body needs called methylfolate if you do have the gene mutation then all the folic acid in the world doesn't matter because your body can't create the usable form of that nutrient and when you can't create the usable form of that nutrient when your DNA is replicating it goes into something called s-phase arrest which is essentially where it stops the the replicating at that level and what are the consequences of that well if you look at what this gene
• 98:00 - 98:30 mutation which is essentially results in a deficiency in methyl folate causes um it causes the intestinal motility to slow down so these people have gas bloating diarrhea constipation irritability and cramping and then they start going down all the usual roads they start going and getting food sensitivity testing and food allergy testing and yet nothing works they eat the same thing on Monday and they're fine they at the exact same thing on Wednesday and they blow up like a tick and they're like well this doesn't make any sense I ate the exact same food
• 98:30 - 99:00 Monday morning and I was fine I ate it again on Wednesday and now I'm blowing up like a tick so right there it should tell you that you don't have an allergy right because allergies are consistent they're not transient right people are not allergic to milk on Monday I'm allergic on Wednesday afternoon and re allergic on Saturday morning allergies are very easy to spot like there's no adult listening to the this podcast right now that has a shellfish allergy that doesn't know it right you don't make it to adulthood and not know that you have this allergy
• 99:00 - 99:30 so what we what we fail to realize is very often a nutrient deficiency specifically methyl folate because your body can't break down folic acid um this nutrient deficiency can interrupt the pace of the gut the peristaltic activity of the gut so what happens when you interrupt the the that peristaltic activity in the gut gas exp bloating diarrhea constipation irritability cramping well what else happens well this is where neurotransmitters are manufactured this
• 99:30 - 100:00 is why to this day in in in nine years of being in this industry intensely I have never met a patient that tells me they suffer from severe anxiety that does not also have gut issues not once because the anxiety is not coming from the outside environment it's coming from the gut and so and these poor people go down the road of food sensitivity food allergy testing they go on a carnivore diet they go on keto paleo what have you um sometimes carnivore will solve it because they happen to get to the
• 100:00 - 100:30 methylfolate and when when you realize that these are just nutrient deficiencies and so women for example that um become pregnant and take high doses of this folic acid um they all of a they can't process the folic acid so they're taking the folic acid because their doctor tells them to take it to prevent a neural tube defect so like a good mother they take it and then um they don't realize that they can't convert it so it's actually
• 100:30 - 101:00 not preventing the neural tube defect and helping the fetus the way they want it to and this high amounts of folic acid rise in their blood and it causes all kinds of psychiatric conditions including postpartum depression which begins during pregnancy even though it's called postpartum depression and eventually what happens to a lot of these women is their pregnancy ends they stop taking their prenatal vitamin and their symptoms go away so they blame it on the pregnancy not on the vitamin and so um you know one of the messages that I really try to get out there is that um if you have uh ADD ADHD OCD um
• 101:00 - 101:30 um focus and concentration problems or your kids have behavioral issues or they have um issues with Focus concentration completing assignments paying attention not being disruptive in class for one week get the folic acid out of their diet get them on a kids multivitamin that methyl folate just do this for one week and you tell me if you don't have a completely different child in the house
• 101:30 - 102:00 the reason for this is 44% of the population including children have this gene mutation where they can't process folic acid well where do we find folic acid well in the United States which is what's this is what's really screwed up about our chemical and food industry in the United States by law all white flour white rice bread pasta cereals grains of any kind are sprayed with the chemical folic acid it's not called sprayed with
• 102:00 - 102:30 folic acid it's called fortified or enriched so when you spin a box of crackers around or you see flour or breads or pastas or cereals or grains and it says enriched bleached white flour um fortified whole wheat fortified or enriched grains fortified cereal enrich cereal that means it's been sprayed with folic acid which 44% of the population can't process you take a little child that has this G mutation which 44% of them do and what do we feed them in the morning for breakfast white
• 102:30 - 103:00 Bagels full of folic acid cereal full of folic acid Pop-Tarts full of folic acid any of these things and you dubb 1,00% of the daily allowance of folic acid into that little body it's a full contact sport to get that kid in the car to go to school in the morning and when they get to school the call comes home and it says he Little Johnny can't pay attention he's disruptive he doesn't follow uh instructions he doesn't complet assignments we need to bring in the riddle in to solve this and that's where the hamster wheel starts if you just got the folic acid the synthetic
• 103:00 - 103:30 compound that does not occur naturally in nature and gave them methyl folate as a as a supplement and just got the Fortified or enriched foods out of their diet for a week you have very often have a completely different wow in the house and there's so many people that are dealing with this you know these kids that are I mean the rates of not just to autism which have gone from 1 in 5,000 to 1 in32 um in the in the last 40 years
• 103:30 - 104:00 um the the the rates of attention deficit disorder are on an absolute parabolic tear I mean you want to put talk about a pandemic but no one really tells you that attention deficit disorder is not even a deficit of attention attention deficit disorder is is is not um an inability to pay attention It's actually an attention overload disorder it's it's too many wind windows open at the same time right so people that have ADD or ADHD don't lack the ability to pay attention they lack the ability to pay attention to so
• 104:00 - 104:30 many things so why is it that you're opening Windows faster than you're closing them the reason is that in the human mind we don't just create thought we also dismantle thought we break thought down we break down emotion we break down mood we break down thought if you degrade thought at a slower rate than you create it then your the Mind becomes very clouded right
• 104:30 - 105:00 you're you're you're um you're you're thinking about a vacation you a job you're working on let's say you're thinking about a job you're working on and your friend walks up and now you're thinking about a job you start talking to your friend and you notice logo on your friend's jacket that reminds you of a vacation you want to take so now you're thinking about a job looking at the logo talking to your friend thinking about a vacation you want to take like all at the same time and and then your friend says something to you and you're like not with it you're like you know hey are you there what's happening is you're creating thought at a faster rate
• 105:00 - 105:30 than you're breaking it down very often stimulated by folic acid and driven by a lack of methylfolate and so um when you put these compounds back in the body very often thought process returns to normal right and other words the degradation of thought returns to normal and you start sequencing thought normally because you didn't have an atttention deficit disorder you had an atttention overload disorder you were opening two window too many windows at the same time you know
• 105:30 - 106:00 modern medicine says hey if the mind's racing right if you're opening all these windows right so the mind's the mind's racing let's put an amphetamine into the body to race the central nervous system to match the pace of the mind that's what vians Aderall and Ridin are they're basically glorified amphetamines so now you're taking the system the central nervous system which is not broken and you're breaking it to match the system that is broken right which is a terrible idea it's it's it's like getting a flat tire and then getting out of your car
• 106:00 - 106:30 and slashing your other three tires yeah to create equilibrium um so you know one of the messages I don't even know how we got on this path I'm I'm like way down the road we were talking about faith we were talking about faith I'm betting the U-turn somewhere dude I'm eventually I'm going to bring you back guys take me full get the full G out of your [Laughter] Let's uh wow I'm glad we covered that I I'm glad we are too cuz I mean that's
• 106:30 - 107:00 really if you got moms and dads listening to this podcast that have little kids that have those issues I have those issues I grew up taking Aderall G and yeah still took it all the way up to psychedelics and uh and stopped it but I do have too many windows open yeah so most people do it's never been explained to me like that so you know degrade we got to degrade thought same thing happens to people with sleep issues we're going to get into your labs in a second but and I'm going to explain why
• 107:00 - 107:30 people that are the most exhausted why they sleep the worst because because you think it would be the opposite right you think that people that are really exhausted the only thing they do well is sleep but actually the people that are the most exhausted sleep the worst and I'm going to point out where what they need to look at in in the labs to fix that but the majority of people that are listening this podcast right now now um that have really poor um sleep patterns or have just a really tough time sleeping the reason why they have a
• 107:30 - 108:00 tough time sleeping is because when they lay down to go to sleep and their body tired their mind is awake if you ask them they will tell you I'm not sleeping because my mind is awake not because I'm not tired so what happens is as their environment quiets their mind wakes up so why does your mind wake up at night when there's no stimulus it's because the there's there's a category of neurotransmitters in our brain called catacol amines okay these are fight ORF flight neurotransmitters dopamine norepinephrine a fedone um
• 108:00 - 108:30 adrenaline when these neurotransmitters start to rise what they do is they create a waken state if they continue to rise you'll feel anxious if they rise further you'll feel anxiety if they continue to Rise um you can have paranoia or even a full-blown panic attack so if we realize that as a certain class of neurotransmitters arises our mind enters awaken State and if we realize that if we don't
• 108:30 - 109:00 have the right raw material in our body specifically the right complex of B vitamins methyl folate um of a form of B12 called methyl cobalamin just which is just a form of the the light metal B12 then what happens is we have a difficult time breaking these neurotransmitters down quieting these neurotransmitters so at night our mind wakes up and what we'll do is we'll ruminate on the most innocuous little [ __ ] like you you you will lay there just thinking did I get everything on my grocery list did my
• 109:00 - 109:30 belt match my shoes um you know should I have a Thanksgiving Day party with my family you'll just ruminate on the most nonsensical things and it will just eat away at your sleep for hours and people get frustrated because they realize I'm exhausted but I can't fall asleep soon as you put the right raw materials back into the human body methylated nutrients very often their might start starts to quiet down at night and they don't have to tranquilize themselves to go to sleep
• 109:30 - 110:00 and so um a lot of the conditions that we uh accept as a consequence of Aging or you know Little Johnny's just got attention deficit disorder but everybody's got attention deficit disorder you know I have a hard time falling asleep but I'm you know I'm in my 40s and I got three kids and I shouldn't fall asleep and none of that is true these are not consequences of Aging they are consequences of missing raw material in our bodies and these raw materials are very easy to put back in so back to Faith S no that's that's I
• 110:00 - 110:30 struggle with all these yeah struggle all these oh yeah a I mean one I have one of the biggest veteran audiences in the world in the in the country so we all struggle with sleep so that was super informative and um and you know the the challenge with sleep very often and I want to get into it in your labs because I think we can solve this issue for a lot of your listeners number one they should be looking at taking methylated vitamins
• 110:30 - 111:00 taking methylfolate at night taking magnesium at night the light metals that that create the deficiency that that make it hard to quiet the mind the second thing they ought to really think about is um getting their blood work done and getting some data and looking at their hormone levels in men very specifically testosterone because it's it's it's very hard for for most Physicians to link deficiencies in in a hormone like testosterone to porcel patterns but what happens is
• 111:00 - 111:30 testosterone and we can we can talk about this further with your Labs but testosterone one of its primary roles is actually not male characteristics this why women are afraid of testosterone therapy because um they think it leads to facial hair and aggression and big muscles in a deep voice and that's actually not true one of the primary roles of the hormone testosterone in men and women is to actually put pressure on the bone marrow to create new red blood cells so this is called uthris right production of new red blood cells same thing happens when you go to altitude
• 111:30 - 112:00 for example so let's say you have low testosterone and you have low production of red blood cells you don't have anemia but you have a very low red blood cell count so what does this mean you have very few vehicles in your blood to transport oxygen okay and this hides in plain sight so people that have sleep issues or energy you should listen really closely because you'll go get your blood work done by a physician and there's a range for red blood cells so
• 112:00 - 112:30 it will be within range but you'll be down in the bottom 10 percentile then there's a second thing on your Labs called um uh hemoglobin which is kind of like the fluid in the red blood cell tells you how much hemoglobin is in that cell and that's in the bottom um 10 or 15 percentile they're in the normal range what happens when I start to delete red blood cells from the bloodstream and when I start to drain them of hemoglobin and I'm oversimplifying this for a moment is I have less fluid to carry oxygen and
• 112:30 - 113:00 what's the result of that I'm tired I'm tired because I'm I'm hypoxic and I'm hypoxic because I'm lower on red blood cells and I'm lower on red blood cells very often because I'm deficient in the hormone testosterone and so when somebody says they're low on energy if you convert that statement to physiology they're almost saying I'm low on red blood cells I'm low on hemoglobin maybe because I'm low on on
• 113:00 - 113:30 testosterone which is why I really believe that people should get hormone panels done um and not everybody needs to be on testosterone there are lots of ways to raise it without taking the hormone my point is now if you're tired all the time right because your your blood doesn't carry oxygen well well what happens when you go to sleep you lay down to go to sleep your respiratory rate gets very shallow right you take shallow breaths so the oxygen level in your blood drops well your Oxygen's your your your blood's already poor carrying oxygen so now as your respiratory rate
• 113:30 - 114:00 drops and the blood oxygen level drops you're marginally suffocating and so what happens is as you start to get into a deep sleep your brain wakes you up you will pulse cortisol at night to keep your body out of a deep sleep because your brain is keeping you from suffocating then people people do the worst thing instead of fixing their hormone and raising their red blood cell count they actually go to their doctor and say Doc I can't sleep the doc gives AB zum nitrate diazapam Xanax you know
• 114:00 - 114:30 ambient Lea ambient whatever it is what a lot of these drugs do is they essentially blindfold the brain's view of blood oxygen and it allows you to get into a sleep because your brain won't wake you up but then you wake up in the morning you go man I hate T taking Tylenol PM because it it it it it it just it's still in my system the next morning or when I wake up from Ambi and I'm really groggy and I'm foggy that medication's been out of your system
• 114:30 - 115:00 from hours you are feeling the effects of having suffocated for six hours that's why you're groggy that's why you can't focus that's why you're sore and stiff and ay wow so if you went back and fixed the hormones very often you would fix the signal to the bone marrow you would fix the red blood cell count which would fix the oxygen transport which would not only give you more energy but it would deepen your sleep fascinating yeah makes a hell of a lot of sense you got a great way of breaking things down thanks you really do yeah even for somebody like me
• 115:00 - 115:30 understand but um but uh I would love to hear you disprove Evolution can we do that well the main issue with evolution is the following the main issue with evolution is we have taken enormous scientific leaps in the fossil records right so so if evolution is true then you find single celled or multi-celled organisms right and you go from single celled or
• 115:30 - 116:00 two celled organisms to four celled to eight celled to 16 celled you go through a progressive um Evolution if you will of these organisms evolving into an increasingly more being likee creature so ution says basically that some bacteria got together in a mud puddle and they made it and we went from single
• 116:00 - 116:30 celled organisms to multicell organisms to quadric Cellular to hexa Cellular to multicellular and then these organisms began to form into systems that created organ systems and then you basically had what is a rudimentary um um non-air breathing um organism that's that was in the water to an organism that had gills and then those gills moved out onto land and then
• 116:30 - 117:00 they started to breathe oxygen and then this whole lineage of species evolved from this the problem is there's zero evidence of that the problem is you have these single cell organisms and multicell organisms and then there's a just a giant Gap in the fossil record and you have animals and then and you have man but we don't have a fossil record that takes us from single and multi-celled organisms into an entire
• 117:00 - 117:30 species and we just simply ignore that wow so I didn't know that we ignore the science that would valid validate that Evolution was and and too for me when I when I start to when I really study the human body and and by the way we have barely scrap the surface of understanding you know this this thing that God created it is it is fascinating
• 117:30 - 118:00 in its ability you know modern medicine will say well that was a miracle cure it's not a miracle cure it's when when people are miraculously cured from things it's because they figured out the deficiency or they figured out that we're an in that we're an entire being we we've lost uh faith in the ability that this has over this the um medicine treats our our mental health and our physical health almost as separate um creatures and so you destroy
• 118:00 - 118:30 somebody's gut health their mental health will follow um you will not have again I've never met a patient that suffers from anxiety that didn't have gut issues so what I'm saying is you have this perfectly beautiful um organism you have these communities of trillions of cells God gave us everything that we need to thrive everything that we need to thrive the best research that is being done on the
• 118:30 - 119:00 surface of Mother Earth right now is being done on the basics that God gave us magnetism from the earth oxygen from the air light from the sun um Whole Foods minerals from like that you would get if you scooped water out of a flowing stream grounding by discharging into the Earth and changing the polarity of of of your body repolarizing the surface of your blood cells learning to actually allow sunlight into your eyes and to touch your skin we're very photovoltaic beings and so what happens
• 119:00 - 119:30 when we start to disconnect from Mother Nature what happens when we start to disconnect from what God gave us and replace it with what man man made us we get this is this is how we become sick and diseased and pathological and the reason why I say that is that this whole ecosystem was meant to um work as as an entire ecosystem you can't take pieces of it out and expect to maintain a state of of Optimal Health so for example if
• 119:30 - 120:00 you look at our circulatory system you know very few people realize that that only 30% of our blood is circulated by our heart right your heart's only responsible for 30% of the circulation in our body 70% of our circulation is actually not done by the heart 70% of our circulation is done by an activity called vasomotor okay this is microvascular circulation nobody listening to this podcast has a heart that is strong enough in a single contraction to pump blood all the way to the tip of your toes to the tip of your
• 120:00 - 120:30 fingers through all the capillaries in your brain your liver your lungs your pancreas your kidneys none of us what happens is we pump blood to the entrance of these capillaries and then an activity called Vasa motor takes over think of a snake swallowing a mouse okay so what happens as we age to this these capillaries to this microvascular circulation well as we deprive it of sunlight um which we very often do um it becomes deconditioned if you will you lose the vascular laxity blood flow
• 120:30 - 121:00 begins to decrease the reason why most people start wearing readers in their 50s is not because their eyesight is physically changing but because the blood flow to the back of their eyes is changing um when we um when we don't change when we don't vary our temperature right expose oursel to cold temperatures expose oursel to hot temperatures when we just keep our temperature perfectly normal we stop exercising our vascular system our Our arteries are smooth muscle they can actually contract and expand we don't think about exercising our vascular
• 121:00 - 121:30 system but it's actually very good for you one of the reasons why I love cold water exposure taking a cold shower getting in a cold plunge or a cold tub is because you're exercising your vascular system you're causing a peripheral Vaso constriction and a vasod dilation which is actually very very good for maintaining this microvascular circulation but we just maintain our body temperature and air temperature and our car temperature and our temperature in our office and our temperature in our home because we don't like to be uncomfortable we got to stop telling Grandma not to go outside it's too hot
• 121:30 - 122:00 not to go outside it's too cold just to lay down just to relax just to eat at the very first Pang of hunger this is collapsing all of our natural defense mechanisms and so what one one of the reasons you know getting back to to evolution is you look at how this human body is is is structured and you you see that for example an artery will have a certain diameter and it carries this warm oxygenated blood away from the heart and then wrapped around this
• 122:00 - 122:30 artery comprising the same diameter but divided into smaller little pipes are the veins and the veins are smaller in diameter and they're wrapped around the artery to improve the heat exchange and so you start like digging into this and you're like this is like the most sophisticated engineer in the world designed this system because the warm fluid that's leaving changes the temperature of the cool fluid that's coming back and the way you change the temperatures you divide the same
• 122:30 - 123:00 diameter into smaller pipes and you wrap it around this other pipe you don't see arteries and veins like this you see artery and veins like this and so it's and I can give you a thousand examples of this it's just it's just incredible how the the body can you know when you fast for example your body goes into the state called autophagy where it actually starts starts to um eat cells that are useless in the body it recycles them right you look at any faith in in the
• 123:00 - 123:30 world Muslims Christians Jews Buddhists Hindu you look at any um major religion in the world they all have periods of fasting and they have periods of fasting because fasting wasn't just to deprive you of you know pleasures of the flesh it was to heal you it was actually designed when we didn't have the medications that we have today it was designed to cleanse and heal the body because when you go into a fasted State this miraculous condition starts to
• 123:30 - 124:00 emerge where your body efficiently go sends the immune system out into the world and it starts to eat the useless cells in your body and break them apart into the amino acids that we use other places for energy so incredibly efficient it's it's like you know like the greatest PhD chemist in the world designed the chemical component the greatest architectural engineer in the world designed the architecture of it the structure of it is is is so
• 124:00 - 124:30 incredible if you look at how we take the same minerals and create bone calcium phosphorus form hydroxyapetite create this this bone and then we Warehouse a factory inside the bone that creates the the the red blood cells and the red blood cells are responsible for shuttling the um the gases around in the body and this this ecosystem is so intelligent and it couldn't in not in my opinion but in the scientific evidence it could not have been put together by
• 124:30 - 125:00 accident it didn't happen by happen stance and don't tell me about genetic Evolution because um you know genetically you know we've been told things like um um you know we pass disease from generation to generation which is in most cases is patently Al like uh you know you have a lot of listeners right now that you will either have type two diabetes or they'll have hypothyroid or they'll have high blood
• 125:00 - 125:30 pressure or they'll have um uh drug and alcohol addiction runs in their family or depression and anxiety runs in their family and they have been told that these are genetically inherited diseases right because something runs in families does not mean it's genetically inherited this is another farce that has been prated on the the the populace because if I can convince you that you have a genetically inherited disease I can convince you that you need to
• 125:30 - 126:00 subscribe to a lifetime of medication so you come in to see me as your doctor and I look at your blood pressure and I go Sean you have high blood pressure you go well why do I have high blood pressure I go well I don't know um you have a normal EKG you have a normal EEG you have normal heart sounds you have normal lung sounds you have a normal die contrast study I did all these tests on your heart and there's nothing wrong with your heart why why do I have high blood pressure well because your grandfather had it or your uncle had it so it's familial it's genetically inherited the next time a physician says
• 126:00 - 126:30 that to you you need to look them dead in the face and say What gene did I inherit from my on ancestor that gave me that condition watch their face go blank because things run in families does not mean that you have a genetic disease what we pass from generation to generation is for the most part is not disease it is habits habits and nutrient deficiencies both of which are fixable
• 126:30 - 127:00 right go to Google right now and say what percentage of hypertension is idiopathic meaning of Unknown Origin 85% you mean to tell me 85% of the time they diagnose you with high blood pressure they have no idea what's causing it it's exactly what I mean so what do we do in the 85% of cases where we don't know the origin of high blood pressure we medicate the heart what do we do in the 85% of cases that we don't know why you have um hypothyroid we medicate to thyroid um and so you want to talk about a pandemic
• 127:00 - 127:30 in this country we have a pandemic of holding organs responsible for crimes they're not committing so many people that are listening to this podcast right now either have high blood pressure or they have a loved one with high blood pressure and the type of high blood pressure they were diagnosed with is idiopathic hypertension Unknown Origin hypertension then they were told because an ancestor had it they inherited it but there is no Gene for that condition so it cannot be genetic and so the same thing happens with W with thyroid we
• 127:30 - 128:00 diagnose people with low thyroid and I'm going to point this out on your Labs um generally broadly because they have low T3 hormone right so the thyroid makes two hormones T4 and it makes T3 but the little known fact about the thyroid is that it only makes 20% of the T3 hormone in your blood so if T3 is low there's an 80% chance it's not your thyroid but what do we do when T3 is low
• 128:00 - 128:30 we call it hypothyroid and we medicate the thyroid so the question should be where's the other 80% come from the other 80% comes from outside the thyroid it's deined in the liver um which is about 2third of the thyroid hormone T3 the rest of it comes from the gut and the periphery but the point is between the liver the gut and the periphery this is out side of the thyroid we just hold the thyroid responsible for a crime it's not committing instead of looking at what nutrients selenium thamin um uh um
• 128:30 - 129:00 zinc which are very very common uh selenium uh very common deficiencies and thyroid conditions less often iodine but before we look to see if the body has the right raw materials the right nutrients we assume disease and pathology and now we're whacking a perfectly healthy organ accusing it of a crime it's not committing and people subscribe to a lifetime of the medication because they were told it's genetic because their grandmother or their uncle or their aunt had it and there's no Gene to pass it on to them
• 129:00 - 129:30 and so these are the the the kinds of of you know again this brings me back to the discussion about faith because God gave us everything that we need to thrive if you can't find it on the surface of the Earth you probably don't need it to live a healthy happy long thriving life right it's when we start picking up the things that God didn't give us we start eating highly processed foods glyphosat-prozess
• 129:30 - 130:00 was caused by the chemicals the synthetics and the Pharmaceuticals it's it's it's such a vicious cycle but but if we go back to what God gave us meat
• 130:00 - 130:30 fish chicken eggs vegetables sunlight grounding breath work exercise nature um uh water that is free of uh uh you know glyphosate and free of uh chlorine and free of um uh fluoride and and microplastics and Pharmaceuticals you'd find that we could fix this entire pandemic or chronic disease in the country just going back to what God gave us wow so you're not eating Bill Gates's
• 130:30 - 131:00 fake meat his lab grown meat Italy banned that [ __ ] was crazy I mean you know stem cell grown meat I mean that's pry wild it's it's it's pretty wild and now we want to blame Green you know greenhouse gases on cow farts and I'm like this this well that's a that's a fascinating conversation we just had I got a couple of questions one was the fasting I remember uh I think we had lunch at your place uh for the podcast
• 131:00 - 131:30 and you were talking about you had mentioned something about how fasting I don't want to put words in your mouth but it sounded like fasting is great for fighting Andor preventing cancer no question how so well because um everyone listening to this podcast at some point in their lifetime whether you've had cancer or not has had cancer cells in your body all cancer has the same origin it was at one time a healthy cell right so it is a liver cell lung
• 131:30 - 132:00 cell pancreatic cell uh you know a brain cell um that cell's metabolism shifted right so it it went from a healthy metabolism which is usually using oxygen um and to produce an energy source called ATP spinning out carbon dioxide healthy cellular met metabolism it's eliminating waste it's repairing it's you know it's detoxifying it's regenerating you know it's replicating so that was at one time a healthy cell
• 132:00 - 132:30 something happened to that cell that shift its metabolism to being sick if you will it shifts to a different source of energy um uses sugar um it uses acid um it creates acid as a as as a byproduct and so why is it that we think that a a healthy cell can become a sick cell well we don't think a sick cell can become a healthy cell um and so you know the theory is
• 132:30 - 133:00 that once a cell that was healthy now becomes sick the only way to fix the cell is to kill this cell um now very often there are forms of cancer that have um uh what's called a DNA mismatch where the where the immune system actually recognizes uh the cancer as a as a foreign body and it and it begins to wage war on it this is the whole basis for something called immunotherapies um we've had a lot of clients and again I am not a physician
• 133:00 - 133:30 and I'm not an oncologist so I want to make that perfectly clear and I'm not recommending that you just fast if you have cancer although I am recommending if you have cancer you should fast maybe not just only fast um but in the body we can create an environment that's very hospitable for cancer we can create an environment that's very inhospitable to cancer so let's talk about a biome that is inhospitable to cancer it's not really inviting cancer number one it has
• 133:30 - 134:00 few areas of fogal hypoxia it has few areas of the body that are deprived of oxygen healthy circulation movement sunlight things like red light therapy so we have healthy circulation we have healthy levels of of of oxygen in the blood the second thing is we don't have an environment that is very acidic you know the PH range of the blood is very narrow so about a half a point as you get more towards the lower end of that
• 134:00 - 134:30 scale you get more acidic as you get the higher end of that scale you get more alkaline we know that alkaline environments tend to be disease free environments acidic environments tend to be disease-prone um um environments um the other thing is we can talk about removing the unnecessary assault on our cellular biology so things like pesticides herbicides
• 134:30 - 135:00 glyphosat-prozess oil and canola oil and safflower oil and sunflower oil and all of these seed oils that are highly toxic to our cellular biology and very often
• 135:00 - 135:30 it's not even the it's not even the um uh the origin of the seed itself like a rape seed or a canola which is the same thing um or a sunflower safflower seed what we do is we take these canola plants or rapes seed plants we put them in a commercial press and and the the oil comes out very gummy so we de gum it with some something called hexane which is a neurotoxin then we take that neurotoxic degummed oil and we heat it to 405 de and we turn it rancid okay so now you have a putrified rancid oil so
• 135:30 - 136:00 then we have to deodorize it so we deodorize it with sodium hydroxide which is a known carcinogen and then we in some cases we'll even bleach it then bottle it then put it on the shelf so it's sometimes it's not even the food it's the distance from the food to the table so if you're listening to this I would make today the day you get seed oils completely out of your diet it's very hard to do sunflower safflower canola rape seed and I would replace those with four or five different oils
• 136:00 - 136:30 if you're cooking use coconut oil which can take high temperatures use um grass-fed or Kee butter or or uh Tallow all of those can are stable at high temperatures and then at room temperature use either an avocado oil or an extra virgin olive oil those are the only fats and oils you need in your house you can make everything with those you can cook everything with those you're safe they're from nature and they don't denat at high temperatures when you take these seed oils and you put them in deep fryers and you start frying
• 136:30 - 137:00 Foods in these you get all kinds of carcinogenic compounds that just Spike inflammation in the body and so um so you know I would if if if you're listening to this I mean I would make seed oils one of the one of the things that you tap water and Seed oils get out of your life and your inflammatory Cascade will come down in your body I'll start doing that and I hate to sound like such a fearmonger but the truth is you know because we started this whole
• 137:00 - 137:30 conversation about evolution is it's the fear is just trying to get back around the system to get back to the basics right that's that's what it is there there's a lack of fear in Whole Foods and the basics fruits vegetables meat fish chicken eggs from whole food sources when we take those things and put them through the industrial process before they hit the table this is where this is where things go wrong right um I mean cattle are not meant to eat soy bean oil and high fructose corn syrup um
• 137:30 - 138:00 they don't encounter these things in in nature they don't take steroids they don't take antibiotics they don't get vaccinated but when we when you look at commercial feed Lots if you've ever seen an aerial picture of a commercial feed lot there is not one blade of grass on the ground those cattle are standing in 4 in of mud and I'm not kidding you just Google it you'll see images of the thousands and thousands of Acres as far as the eye can see they're standing in in in mud very often they're they're they're eating um uh grains which they
• 138:00 - 138:30 don't encounter um they're eating soybean they're eating uh and even in some cases high fructose corn syrup sometimes their teeth are rotted all the way up to the gum by the time they're slaughtered lots of them were dying of type two diabetes right before they're slaughtered um and so but if you take a cow and it's on a pasture and it's eating six or eight different varieties of grass and cloves and it's eating the grass from the top down where the most nutritious part of the of the plant is and it's living for six or seven or eight years before it's slaughtered it's a full um grown uh animal these are
• 138:30 - 139:00 highly nutritious whole food sources um instead of you know the commercially processed versions of these so you have a big veteran population a lot of these veterans um you know sadly are struggling with mental conditions as a part of their service to our country and then they come back and they're put on the pharmaceutical hamster wheel but
• 139:00 - 139:30 nobody's telling them how do I get the neural inflammation out of my brain how do I restore my mood into my emotional state to to normal nobody's talked to me about fixing my gut to get my neurotransmitters right so my mood stabilizes nobody's actually talked to me about getting um seed oils and and these processed foods out of my my diet to reduce the amount of inflammation in my brain that could be causing The Chronic migraines that I have the ruminating thoughts nibbling away at my sleep making me feel like I'm I'm I'm
• 139:30 - 140:00 actually losing my mind a lot of these men and women are not as sick or diseased or as mentally ill as they have been led to believe they don't need chemical intervention in their brain they need a reduction of the inflammatory process that is causing that to exist I'm not saying that in every case I not by any means puring therapy or counseling or any of those things I think that I I I think they all have their place but if you're not talking to these clients and and and
• 140:00 - 140:30 patients about getting these these um compounds that incite inflammation out of their body and fixing their gut so they can create the neurotransmitters that manufacture healthy mood and healthy emotion we're missing an entire Gap in how we could treat them right they develop dopamine deficiencies which is the Genesis of addiction the absence of dopamine is the presence of addiction what happens when people's dopamine gets low they engage in dopamine seeking
• 140:30 - 141:00 Behavior nicotine alcohol priscu gambling risky behaviors what have you but they're actually not seeking the high like we talked about earlier they're seeking the normaly all these people just seek normaly very few addicts are like I wake up and just want to get really banged up they wake up and want to feel normal what is causing the absence of normaly deficiencies and dopamine imbalances and neurotransmitters where the majority of these come from got issues you know it's
• 141:00 - 141:30 I mean I think about cancer scares these [ __ ] it's probably my biggest fear and uh it's like every day somebody else got cancer somebody died of cancer somebody's mom got cancer somebody's brother got you know it's it's every day I hear it and it's running rampant amongst veterans and we're getting all these weird Cancers and you know I just think about you know I spent 14 years in and out of War zones and breathing in you know I mean Cabo
• 141:30 - 142:00 Afghanistan is a it's in a it's in a Big Valley surrounded by mountains how do those people keep warm they burn tires all winter long breathing that I remember spitting in the sink and my [ __ ] spit was black you know water bottles sitting out in 10 10 115° weather in Iraq plastic water bottles and drinking that for 14 years in the and the Jammers now it's coming
• 142:00 - 142:30 out well of course the government's suppressing this but the Jammers uh Jammers being the things that disrupt the the signals uh to trigger an IED um it'll block any cell phone radio Transmissions anything like that which could detonate an ID now they're saying that they're saying that I potentially that is causing that's why so many veterans are getting brain cancer because they've been running Jammers sitting there while it's pulsing you know and and and then you know all the
• 142:30 - 143:00 ordinance the explosions everything that's why I was asking about that's why I'm so interested in blood filtration and and and plasma exchange to see if I can get some of this heavy metals and all the [ __ ] out of my body that well you know what a lot of these guys should be doing because I mean first of all plasma exchange is amazing these blood filtrations are are amazing I'll put links to places that they can get both um right now I have no affiliation with them I've actually done them myself I'm a big believer but they are very often
• 143:00 - 143:30 outside of the price point for a lot of people so what can people do that are listening to this podcast to activate their natural detox Pathways and materially reduce their risk of cancer um number one you know like we talked about just getting tap water out of your diet but number two you know our natural detoxification Pathways like sweat for example um Regular sauna sessions um not only I mean the evidence on on dry saunas is in um I mean an extension in
• 143:30 - 144:00 all cause mortality a reduction in cardiovascular risk a reduction in cancer risk um significant um reductions in in in autoimmune conditions and why is this because the skin can be used as a secondary route of waste elimination and so regular sauna sessions 20 minutes minimum minimum three times a week um um they have saunas now that are you know that are inexpensive enough that you don't even have to have the big you know uh cedar cedar room they have saunas you
• 144:00 - 144:30 can sit in they have single saunas that you can get online um my preference is dry saunas that's where most of the the the the evidence is is sitting in a dry sauna activating those Pathways taking things like glutathione liposomal or transdermal glutathione glutathione is is the most powerful antioxidant in the human body it resides inside of every single cell in our bodies there's not one cell in your body that does not contain glutathione this is an antioxidant that's actually made by the liver and um it's called the mother of
• 144:30 - 145:00 all antioxidants we actually can do intracellular tests for the level of glutathione and tell exactly when a cell is going to die by its intracellular level of glutathione it's that linked to Cellular health so you can supplement with glutathione you can do it via IV drips um um there is a trans dermal glutathione um that you can spray that you can rub through the skin which has the right folded proteins to go through the blood and enter the I mean through the skin and into the bloodstream and uh
• 145:00 - 145:30 doing regular uh sauna sessions these are all ways for us to decrease our susceptibility to cancer um I also think although there's not a direct clinical study stating this drinking hydrogenated water and reducing the inflammation in the body um also makes us less prone to cancer if you actually want to look at um and you can you can repeat this at home like you can order a $6 orp meter from Amazon it's
• 145:30 - 146:00 called an orp meter oxidative reduction potential what this meter will do if you put it in a glass of water or any kind of fluid is it will tell you what the potential is of that fluid to reduce oxidation to to to lower inflammation um I think I showed you this at my house you did so you take this little meter you you you run tap water that's going to be like plus 140 160 right meaning it's going to cause inflammation you take filtered water still going to be plus 110 120 um it's also going to cause
• 146:00 - 146:30 inflammation you take and add hydrogen gas to the water and it will drop to -600 meaning -600 -600 so if you take that little hydrogen water bottle that we were drinking out of and you and you fill it with bottled water and you put the orp meter in there you'll see it'll be about plus 110+ 120 as soon as you turn the hydrogen gas on it will drop to -600 so it is seven
• 146:30 - 147:00 times more reducing of oxidation so when when something is reducing oxidation reducing inflammation what is it doing it's it's neutralizing something that's causing inflammation so when you put hydrogen water into the body the hydrogen gas into the body it's reducing inflammation so adding hydrogen water regular sauna sessions uh glutathione is an excellent supplement for people that are worried about detoxification the primary problem
• 147:00 - 147:30 that most people have when they detox from anything mold or viruses or heavy metals is the body's detoxification processes are not working so they take something to detox or cleanse themselves the body dumps all this stuff into the bloodstream and they get sick as the devil well that's why you want to be doing regular sauna regular glutathione regular exercise lots of hydration get the body's natural detoxification um processes working and
• 147:30 - 148:00 these are things that everybody can do like folks that don't have the money to go out and buy a coal plunge just start taking um Tupperware containers in your kitchen fill them with water put them in your freezer at night take it out the next morning you'll have a block of ice put that in your tub and swirl it around and in 25 minutes 30 minutes you'll have a perfect cold plunt you don't have to go to 7-Eleven and spend you know whatever four bucks buying a bag of ice which gets expensive if you're doing that every day too and just keep rotating these temperware containers through your freezer and
• 148:00 - 148:30 putting them into your into your tub start changing the temperature of your body apply a hormetic stress stress the body so that it strengthens get your circulation you know working and you can do this if you're deconditioned too people that are handicapped or have reduced Mobility exposing yourself to sauna exposing yourself to cold temperatures changing the temperature of the the body mimicking this level of circulation increasing the the heart rate without moving a lot you can be in a wheelchair and go into a sauna and your heart rate will rise right some of
• 148:30 - 149:00 the best research ever done on what's called multi-step oxygen therapy or ewat exercise with oxygen therapy I think it was Dr otter warberg um This research was done by taking deconditioned people I do this with my parents three times a week putting them in the SAA allowing that to raise the heart rate and having them breathe a little bit of um oxygen and um just from a nasal culus and what this does the profusion pressure of the increased heart rate gets this out into the periphery gets
• 149:00 - 149:30 their circulation working get oxygen to the brain get oxygen to the tissues that's the enemy of cancer you know healthy circulation in oxygen and low low sugar environment low glycemic environment and a and a relatively high pH environment in the blood higher end of the pH SC for the blood that's a cancer-free environment wow thank you you're welcome I know everybody out there has to
• 149:30 - 150:00 be just as frustrated as I am when it comes to the BS and the rhetoric that the mainstream media continuously tries to force feed us and I also know how frustrating it can be to try to find some type of a reliable news source it's getting really hard to find the truth and what's going on in the country and in the world and so one thing we've done here at sha Ryan Show is we are developing our newsletter and the first contributor to the newsletter that we have is a woman
• 150:00 - 150:30 former CIA targeter some of you may know her as Sarah Adams call sign super bad she's made two different appearances here on the Shawn Ryan Show and some of the stuff that she has uncovered and broke on this show is just absolutely mindblowing and so I've asked her if she would contribute to the newsletter and give us a weekly intelligence brief so it's going to be all things terrorists
• 150:30 - 151:00 how terrorists are coming up through the southern border how they're entering the country how they're traveling what these different terrorist organizations throughout the world are up to and here's the best part the newsletter is actually free we're not going to spam you it's about one newsletter a week maybe two if we release two shows the only other thing that's going to be in there besides the Intel brief is if we have a new product or something like that but like I said it's a free CIA
• 151:00 - 151:30 intelligence brief sign up links in the description or in the comments we'll see you in the newsletter all right Gary we're back from the break and uh so I did a I I I gave a bunch of blood uh when I was down there for your podcast and we're going to go go over that and I'm a little nervous but uh you're doing fine you're going to give me a life estimation yeah I'm not going to predict your life expectances I've only done that once
• 151:30 - 152:00 since I left that career and that was for Dana White um but uh but I will tell you how you're going to live a longer healthier happier life D you're not you're not bad at all you're not bad at all first off when we when we look at blood work I I want to preface this by saying I'm not a physician I'm not licensed to practice medicine I don't want to give anybody medical advice it's also important to to Just note for the podcast that a licensed physician did meet with you before the podcast Dr krie
• 152:00 - 152:30 sarda went through your blood the recommendations I'm going to talk about are her recommendations and she is a license to practice medicine um what I would prefer to do is is talk about how how do you how do you read these how do you interpret a lot of these numbers what should people look for in their blood work what should they be asking their doctor to look at um blood work is excellent because blood gives you data and it's hard to put any kind of actionable plan in place until you have data right and most people when
• 152:30 - 153:00 I talk to them I speak at a lot of conferences stage talks you know podcasts whatever if you ask people what's more important your business or your health 99% of them will say my health if you ask them what's more important to you money or or your health um your your Wellness your well-being they'll say my wellbeing my my health but then when you really dig deep and you go well do you own your own business yeah what did your business make last month oh $622,000 what was your net profit 7
• 153:00 - 153:30 79,500 how many employees do you have 17 what's your average revenue per employee 58,4 per head okay what's your hemoglobin A1c blank where's your testosterone blank what's your vitamin D3 level no idea so you realize very quickly that while they think they prioritize their health they really don't people have been um guilted in my opinion into thinking that being selfish like putting them themselves
• 153:30 - 154:00 first is very selfish it's actually very selfless I really encourage people and I do this as a as a practice to give yourself a certain time during the day so for me the first 90 minutes of every single day belongs only to me it doesn't belong to my family it doesn't belong to my spouse my my clients career my partners no one it belongs only to me after that 90 minutes I give the rest of my day away um so I really cater to my wife I cater to my
• 154:00 - 154:30 kids I cater to my my business my clients I have a lot of private clients and I really pour myself into them but my my staff knows that all of my meetings in travel get scheduled around sleep and exercise we I didn't get here today until 10:00 this morning but I got up at 6:30 this morning I flew in last night at a decent hour so I could get decent sleep so I prioritize my meetings in travel around sleep and exercise and always the first 90 minutes of my day belongs to me this morning I did some breath work I got some sunlight I had a
• 154:30 - 155:00 really good breakfast and I went down to the gym and got a 60-minute workout at the gym I think if people just made that one shift in their life because and and Veterans for some reason are especially prone to this it's called caregiver syndrome it's where they prioritize the needs of everybody else in their life ahead of their needs and I think this might stem from the training um where when I'm certain in sealed training and I don't pretend to have any view into that but very
• 155:00 - 155:30 myopically you're if you're thinking about the needs of your comrades first and they're thinking about your needs first that's an excellent recipe for survival but in the real world we have to prioritize ourselves and putting yourself first is not selfish selfish it's very selfless and so the best place to start is with the blood work right because what's not in your blood is somebody else's opinion and if you ask an opinion about why you're not sleeping
• 155:30 - 156:00 why you have weight gain water retention you know depression anxiety poor sleep any number of things you're going to get a thousand different opinions this will only tell one story it will only give you a fact pattern and there's three things you should look at in your blood work you should look at your hormone balance your glycemic profile how well are you controlling your blood sugar which is your glucose your hemoglobin A1c and your insulin and you should look at nutrient deficiencies I'm going to point those out in here specifically vitamin D3 B12 some of the big ones
• 156:00 - 156:30 DHEA so when you when you when you look at uh blood work and hopefully this will be up on the screen it usually starts with something called the CBC which stands for complete blood count so this is where we go into the contents of your blood and we count up the contents of your blood how many white blood cells do you have how many red blood cells do you have so in your case um um your white blood cell count is in the normal range which is great um um I'm going to come back to that in a second but at the top of of this you see that your um we're
• 156:30 - 157:00 starting to look at how well you control your blood sugar first thing we look at is fasting glucose so your fasting glucose is 99 it's a little on the high side but the most important one is this one right here hemoglobin A1c this is the 3month average of your blood sugar if you ate a box of donuts the morning you took this Blood it wouldn't have moved this number you fasted for two days before you did this blood work it would move this number it's a 3mon average you really want this number to be around 5.2 or lower what is it
• 157:00 - 157:30 5.5 at 5.6 you become pre-diabetic 44% of this country is pre-diabetic um 18% of teenagers have pre-diabetes um and so I'm sorry 44% of teenagers have pre-diabetes 18% of teenagers have fatty liver disease so if you want to talk about what is the most controllable factor in our lives and that is the
• 157:30 - 158:00 biggest contributor to all forms of disease and pathology it would be rampantly uncontrolled blood sugar and it is silent and you don't feel it and it causes you to overeat causes you to gain weight causes you to retain water it causes an increased risk of cardiovascular disease causes inflammation all kind of things so hemoglobin A1c is the 3month average of our blood sugar and then in the in the latter part of your Labs you'll see uh insulin your insulin is right down in the single low single digits at 6.3
• 158:00 - 158:30 that's good you're not insulin resistant you insulin sensitive so what are a couple of ways that I could go about lowering the 3-month average of my blood sugar um there is a root that you can take called berberine which has actually been shown in similar side-by-side clinical trials to be as effective if not more effective than metformin which is what they give to type two diabetics to control blood sugar um you weren't at
• 158:30 - 159:00 the place where you need medication or anything um berberine would be excellent for you to take with with meals the other thing to do is to watch your high glycemic foods high glycemic foods are foods that you eat that are not the obvious sugary sweet foods that actually spike your blood sugar um ideally you want your sugar to look like Rolling Hills throughout the day most people's sugar looks like a heart monitor okay when your sugar spikes your insulin spikes when your sugars fall you get
• 159:00 - 159:30 very hungry on the way down we trigger hunger so the more your blood sugar travels the hungrier you are more often the more you overeat this is why people that eat the most sugar have the highest blood fat people that eat the most sugar have a tendency to gain weight the easiest the other thing that happens when we eat a lot of high glycemic foods what are high glycemic foods like white
• 159:30 - 160:00 flour white rice white bread pasta potatoes and then the obvious cakes cookies pastries pies brownies the obvious ones that taste really sweet the ones that aren't so obvious are the are the Breads and the pastas and the Rices and things that we eat a lot of um that we don't combine with proteins that that Spike our blood sugar so I tell people for 10 weeks just try to get the whites out of your diet flour rice bread pasta
• 160:00 - 160:30 white potatoes sweet potatoes are fine um and then the obvious sugars out of your diet um the other thing you can do is take berberine which is a root which helps really really really is very very good at controlling uh blood sugar so lowering your hemoglobin A1c is one of the best ways to um put yourself in a state of reducing all kinds of consequences down the road the other thing that is excellent for blood sugar
• 160:30 - 161:00 is muscle mass the sponge for glucose in the body is your muscles our muscles are a sponge for sugars more muscle mass you have the better you are absorbing and maintaining and controlling your blood sugar people that are very frail very susceptible to type two diabetes to rampantly high high blood sugar so um there's actually some evidence that instead of doing one 45 minute walk in the morning 3 15 minute walk spread throughout the day right after meals is
• 161:00 - 161:30 better at controlling your blood sugar than that a lot of things that we can do that we have control over um like eating a meal and going for a 15minute walk um are really recipes for longevity As you move down your blood work here and you see these this little section here looking at your kidneys you'll see something called bun creatinin and egfr this is looking at your Kidney Health blood Ura nitrogen and creatinin for lack of better words they're kind of the kidney waste products that you want to filter out of
• 161:30 - 162:00 the blood you don't like to see these rising in the blood in your case they're not um so your kidneys are doing a good job filtering the blood the question is how much stress are the kidneys under and you can get that number from something called egfr this is your glomular filtration rate this this tells you the rate at which blood is moving through your kidneys okay the higher the filtration rate the faster the blood's moving through your kidneys so think about this the full volume of blood in your body
• 162:00 - 162:30 goes through your kidneys 15 times every day what happens if your kidney's get inflamed or irritated they they you have inflammation the filtration rate slows down as the filtration rate slows down the poison level rises so your kidneys are actually very very healthy one of the secrets to maintaining healthy kidneys is just staying properly hydrated controlling your blood pressure um so this is why I tell people you got
• 162:30 - 163:00 to hydrate and mineralize your first thing in the morning you know 10 ounces of water4 teaspoon of Baja gold sea salt then you get your electrolytes so what's really interesting about these is um very often when your sodium levels get too low below 136 I have seen very often in our Clinic system patients complain of regular morning headaches there's an interesting study I'll put the link to Below on
• 163:00 - 163:30 migraine headaches which found an inverse relationship between sodium and migraine headaches what does this mean that as sodium levels went down the frequency of migraine headaches went up I've seen this in hundreds of my clients where I actually give them mineral sea salts in the morning and their migraine headaches go away I'm not saying every migraine headache is related to sodium deficiency but when you think about it
• 163:30 - 164:00 if you have a headache okay where is that coming from it's not coming from your brain there are no pain receptors in the brain the brain is not capable of transmitting a pain signal so when you actually have a headache it's not coming from behind your eye or from the the brain's Temple or oipal or front loes it's not coming from the brain where is it coming from it's coming from the covering of the brain it's called the dura the dura hates two things it hates being stretched and it hates being contracted what determines whether or
• 164:00 - 164:30 not it's stretching or Contracting sodium gradient we have been taught to fear sodium we've been told sodium is very dehydrating nothing could be further from the truth okay not an iodized table salt I'm not talking about that junk I'm talking about a good mineral salt like a Baja gold salt and why why is that well just think about this way if you were if you were so dehydrated right this moment that you landed in the emergency room the very first thing they would give you is a saline IV why would they give you saline if it's dehydrating well because it's
• 164:30 - 165:00 not um if you had life-threateningly high blood pressure and you called 911 when the paramedics ared to your house they would start a bag of IV fluids and they would squeeze saline fluid into your bloodstream to lower your blood pressure so um the feel of salt in my opinion is is is misguided and this will tell you where your sodium is so you don't have to guess your sodiums Get Low adding a mineral salt is excellent you can also see your magnesium levels your
• 165:00 - 165:30 pottassium levels here those are super easy things to supplement with um so yours are all within range when you get down here and you see this word alkaline phosphatase alkaline phosphatase um for lack of better words is it is a liver waste product so we don't like to see this rise in the blood either the liver should be keeping this level um at the low end of the range so your alkaline phosphatase levels are fine but when I
• 165:30 - 166:00 look at the liver enzymes they're elevated so liver enzymes alanine TransAm transaminase a and ALT are liver enzymes so what is this mean how irritated or how inflamed is the liver so one of the supplements that Dr sarda recommended for you is milk thistle selenium maybe we can even put the supplements she recommended right in the show notes so if people have these kinds of conditions
• 166:00 - 166:30 the other thing that's really good for elevated liver enzymes is glutathione the master antioxidant in the human body the liver makes glutathione it's the master antioxidant in the body it resides in every single cell in the human body and when the liver gets stressed it reduces its production of glutathione so so the milk thistle and the um and and the uh liver support that she's putting you on from Thorn it's a company called Thorn which I have no affiliation with um should help to
• 166:30 - 167:00 address this slight amount of inflammation that you've got in the liver what would be causing that inflammation so the main offender is alcohol I know that's not the offender in you um but the main offender for um liver inflammation is alcohol because it's not the alcohol itself it's what the alcohol becomes alcohol is converted into something called a seal alahh which makes your blood pH very low very acidic and this irritates the the the liver but don't forget the liver is filtering out everything the LI liver is like if you want any organ on team Ryan you want the
• 167:00 - 167:30 liver right it can take over the function of other organs it makes cholesterol um it it breaks up um um amino acids it takes um sugar out of the blood and stores it as a storage form of sugar called glycogen it could take storage sugar turn it back into sugar um and put actual glucose into the blood if you're low on blood sugar can actually feed sugar into the blood by taking stored sugar called glycogen through a process called gluconeogenesis can create um sugar the this this is
• 167:30 - 168:00 filtering out Pharmaceuticals um acetaminophen Tylenols um ibuprofin are very difficult on the L liver lots of pharmaceutical compounds put pressure on the liver and then of course all of the major offenders like the seed oils and the highly processed foods put a lot of pressure on the liver to filter those things out pesticides herbicides insecticides glyphosat-prozess
• 168:00 - 168:30 so much of an offender for liver enzymes um that's going to raise your hemoglobin um A1C what sugar will do is actually cause your cholesterol levels to rise so think about this when we eat sugar or
• 168:30 - 169:00 things that raise our our blood sugar very quickly which people know that sugar is the offender but they they don't think about like the Breads and the pastas and the cereals and the grains and and the things that don't taste sweet but spike your your blood sugar so when your blood sugar Rises insulin Rises the thing about insulin is the majority of people think that the primary role of insulin is to lower
• 169:00 - 169:30 blood sugar that's actually not true the primary role of insulin although it does lower blood sugar allows blood to go into the cell um one of the things that insulin does it's a primary role is it blocks any other form of energy use in the body so what does this mean this means when insulin is high you cannot burn fat so if you've eaten a high sugar and high fat meal and your insulin spikes what's happening to that fat where does the fat go it goes into the bloodstream
• 169:30 - 170:00 it shows up in the bloodstream as a triglyceride high blood fat and high cholesterol is a recipe for disaster low Bud fat and high ldo cholesterol is a recipe for longevity so in other words if I want to um maintain healthy levels of cholesterol I want to maintain low
• 170:00 - 170:30 levels of triglyceride blood fat the way I lower my triglycerides is I lower the amount of sugar sugar is the enemy man I'm telling you the Bible should say Sugar's the root of all evil not the love of money because people are not dying because they love money they are dying from blood sugar um and it kills you slowly over time so for me with the liver it would probably be put on processed foods um yep highly processed foods yep highly processed
• 170:30 - 171:00 foods um a form of uh vitamin B12 called cyano cobalamin can be very irritating to the liver um you know we put a lot of [ __ ] on our skin that not only disrupt our disrupts our hormones but it also has to be filtered out by the liver everything from colog and Sh uh and shampoos um and conditioners um to all kinds of cheap lotions sunscreens that we put on our skin as that stuff enters our
• 171:00 - 171:30 bloodstream the liver has to filter it out so if you reduce the toxic load on your body you reduce the toxic load on on on the liver so um hydrogen water the supplement we're going to put you on with the milk thistle and other um herbs to really ease uh the liver glutathione is excellent for your liver these are very inexpensive um supplements people can get right right over the counter um
• 171:30 - 172:00 your iron uh looks good you have a healthy amounts of iron in your blood it's also binding to the right sights very well your total iron there's something here called tibc total iron binding capacity I kind of I kind of think of this level as a dump truck as as you empty out a dump truck right its capacity actually goes up so as you reduce the iron as you use it up then
• 172:00 - 172:30 your total iron binding capacity increases as you empty out the bed of the truck the truck has more capacity so um your your levels of iron in your blood are fine most men don't have iron deficiency women very often um especially if they have heavy menstrual cycle will sometimes need to supplement with something called iron bisglycinate which is an iron supplement that helps negate the effects of of heavy
• 172:30 - 173:00 menstration men for the most part shouldn't be taking iron um has a tendency to build up in their bloodstream um not uh not the opposite um you got a little bit of excess B12 here it's usually not something to worry about B12 is a metal uh light metal in the body it's also water soluble so you have a tendency to urinate it out um and what is your D3 level here 30 wow 99 that's actually not bad at all
• 173:00 - 173:30 so vitamin D3 this is another one that um you should have you know if if you're if you're watching this podcast right now you want to get your D3 level checked functional ranges for D3 are between 60 and 80 nanograms per deiler lots and lots and lots of research on this that 60 to 80 nanograms per deciliter is the optimal range for vitamin D3 there are studies that link this to reduce incidence of breast cancer in women it's linked to all kinds of improvements in immune function um
• 173:30 - 174:00 the range is from 30 to 100 most people are actually below 30 but your doctor will tell you if you're at 30.1 that you're good but that's not true you don't want to just be normal you want to be in the optimal range so that's 60 to 80 nanograms so here's something it's going to sound really controversial um so your cholesterol is and 38 which most Physicians are going to consider high this is where I'm
• 174:00 - 174:30 going to run into a lot of conflict your LDL cholesterol is 170 but your triglycerides are just over 100 so very often and this isn't a full cholesterol panel it's not the amount of cholesterol in your blood that matters it's the size of the cholesterol molecule most people think more cholesterol more cardiovascular disease
• 174:30 - 175:00 that is not necessarily true higher LDL cholesterol on its own is not the link to cardiovascular disease if you have high LDL cholesterol and high triglycerides this is very bad keeping your triglycerides low and the particle size of LDL ch all large this is a recipe for longevity there are also other markers that were not tested in here lipo little a lipo B which I I won't get into on the podcast but in general you want low triglycerides below
• 175:00 - 175:30 149 and slightly elevated levels of LDL cholesterol this in our mortality space was a marker for longevity the people that lived the longest had low triglycerides and high LDL cholesterol um is that what I have yep that's exactly what you have your HDL cholesterol your highd density lipoprotein which tells me you're getting healthy fats you're not afraid of avocados coconut oil olive oil nuts
• 175:30 - 176:00 probably grass-fed butter I can see those things in your diet those that's your Healthy highdensity lipoprotein that's your Healthy levels of cholesterol your numbers are excellent so I mean dude overall you're you're you're you're doing well we want to try to control the blood sugar a little bit be nice to lower your um it will be nice to to uh uh lower your hemoglobin A1c here's a couple other interesting markers um this one is called C reactive protein
• 176:00 - 176:30 it's generally considered a marker for cardiovascular risk if you're above three you have a high risk if you're between um uh two or one and three you have a moderate risk if you're below one you have a very low risk well you're at 0.47 that's great C reactive protein if they're again if you're listening to this podcast you should have your C reactive protein checked it's an non-specific marker of inflammation it's kind of the liver's reaction to inflammation somewhere in the body
• 176:30 - 177:00 doesn't tell you exactly where it's coming from but you can take a deeper dive if this number is high one of the things that we found in our clinical practice to lower C reactive protein is using something called a gut binder activated charcoal silica clay or a zolly binder those things have a tendency to get into the gut and absorb histamines absorb inflammatory factors and help carry them out we've seen very good results K I'm not a physician I can just tell you what we've seen in our
• 177:00 - 177:30 clinical practice using gut binders activated charcoal silica clay zey binders has had a very positive effect in in my experience observing um patients in in our clinical practice um this is the silent one that nobody looks at homosysteine we really want homosysteine to be in the single digits and what is homosysteine this is one of the easiest markers for you to control and so many people have high homosysteine and they're suffering
• 177:30 - 178:00 because of it homosysteine is an amino acid it's in everybody's blood as it's cruising by the inside lining of the artery if it gets too high it irritates the artery when you irritate an artery it clamps down and if you you make the pipes smaller in a fixed system that system is fixed right so if I make the pipes smaller pressure goes up so is it possible that your blood pressure is
• 178:00 - 178:30 high not because there's something wrong with your heart but because you have this elevated amino acid the research says yes because if I make the pipe smaller my pressure goes up and now I'm medicating my heart when really I could take an amino acid called trimethyl glycine which we're putting you on um TMG this amino acid helps the body metabolize homocysteine as homosysteine drops there's a lot of evidence that it relaxes the arterial and vascular system
• 178:30 - 179:00 and pressure returns to normal this is what happened in Dana White when we treated Dana White his blood pressure was really high nothing wrong with the heart lowered this insanely high level of homosysteine and his blood pressure returned to normal again I'm not saying that's the only reason for high blood pressure but you should have that number check because it's very very easy to treat homoy Le relink to increase you know headaches poor circulation um poor
• 179:00 - 179:30 eyesight increased blood pressure um it causes endothelial damage causes damage to the lining of the artery when you get damage to the artery cholesterol shows up cholesterol shows up you start getting the narrowing but it's not because of cholesterol it's because of the damage so homoy one of the simplest things that you can measure and very easy to control so you're taking something called TMG for that and where am ey out on that you're at 11.6 the high end of the range is 14 a half I see
• 179:30 - 180:00 these in the 20s high 20s low 30s all the time you really want this in the single digits okay right very easy to get down into the single digits um then we get to to thyroid so here's here's what's interesting about the thyroid so just a quick quick lesson about the thyroid the thyroid doesn't determine how much hormone it secretes okay it has a boss like almost everything in the body the testicles don't don't decide how much testosteron they secrete they have a boss it's the same boss it's the pituitary so there's
• 180:00 - 180:30 a master regulator up here Puppeteer that's kind of controlling everything so the pituitary sends a signal to the thyroid called thyroid stimulating hormone then the thyroid starts to produce two hormones T4 I'm being a little simplified T4 and T3 what these do is they control your metabolism your body temperature um um they regulate the amount of uh the tary also regulates the amount of um testosterone that your body produces in women it me it regulates their entire menstrual cycle through
• 180:30 - 181:00 something called luteinizing and F follicle stimulating hormone it will move a woman through the three phases of their menstrual cycle so the signal from the pituitary to the thyroid is fine the question is what is a thyroid doing well it's producing these two hormones if produces the majority goes to all of the thyroid T4 it only produces 20% of the T3 the rest of that T3 is T4 converted into T3 which happens
• 181:00 - 181:30 outside of the thyroid this is what we talked about earlier but it's important to know this that it is in dioniz in the liver the gut and the periphery so the majority of your T3 hormone is not not produced by your thyroid so when it is low do not assume that your thyroid is dysfunctional assume you have deficiencies outside of the thyroid before you start taking thyroid medication and medicating the thyroid
• 181:30 - 182:00 for a crime it didn't commit try supporting healthy metabolism of thyroid T3 outside of the thyroid so selenium thomine iodine all levels that you can check methylated multivitamins methylfolate are all excellent things to help with the process of creating this hormone outside the thyroid I can't tell you how many thousands of patients have come through our clinic and thanked our doctors for fixing their thyroid and the
• 182:00 - 182:30 doctor has to remind them I didn't fix your thyroid there's nothing wrong with your thyroid I fixed uh the turnover T4 and T3 outside of your thyroid wow okay wow so it very often this happens in medicine blood pressure high must be the heart can't find anything wrong with the heart medicated anyway um thyroid hormones low must be the thyroid can't find anything wrong with the thyroid medicated anyway we follow this sequence of events
• 182:30 - 183:00 very very often mental illness imbalance in neurotransmitters medicate it anyway don't fix the neurotransmitter imbalance medicate um you know blood viscosity is too high don't just do regular blood dumps you know thin the blood chemically you know so very often we if we just get back to the basics and understand the physiology of the body we can fix a lot of these things without having to rely on chemicals and synthetics
• 183:00 - 183:30 um some good news for you prostate looks great um you know PSA prostate specific antigen it's kind of a measure of the inflammation in the prostate lots of men have something called BPH benign prostatic hyperplasia which is where you get inflammation in the prostate get some urinary flow issues um um things that are great for this are turmeric um corcumin lots of prostate supplements they're very very good at reducing prostate inflammation you do not have
• 183:30 - 184:00 that um one of the things I caution people against is taking the some of the oral forms of these medications like feride and propecia um uh which a lot of men will take for male pattern baldness but then it just kills their sex drive and not knocks out their libido so they're trying to grow back their hair to attract the ladies and then they can't get an erection or can't maintain an erection so if you are taking propia or feride for male pattern baldness just
• 184:00 - 184:30 know that you can get it in liquid format and apply it directly to the scalp and not have so much of it go into your bloodstream um very it's much better to apply topically um you know in my opinion than than it is to take it Orly um it's designed to to reduce the level of something called DHT dihy Hydro testosterone which binds to the hair follicle and chokes it out so um as we Traverse down here a little further um there's a marker here called igf1 insulin like growth factor amongst
• 184:30 - 185:00 other things this is a secondary marker of growth hormone in your body when this number gets low um instead of taking human growth hormone you can actually take a peptide there are there are um legal and some FDA approved um uh peptides to raise your growth hormone level naturally remember when I said that when you produce hormones usually there's a boss that determines how much hormone you produce so growth hormon is produced by the
• 185:00 - 185:30 pituitary but the pituitary has a boss called the hypothalmus and what it does is it turns the pituitary's production of growth hormone on and off you can mimic this signal with a growth hormone peptide these are amino acid peptides that will re wind your pituitary to a more youthful level of growth hormone secretion they're generally considered safe one of the oldest ones is called surm Morin I think it was first approved by the FDA in 1983 so we have Decades of
• 185:30 - 186:00 experience with these peptides they're amino acids they're metabolites the body recognizes them they have a tendency not to create a dependency not to create T aaxis which is a desensitization response um uh I think they're they're uh generally considered to to be safer than taking growth hormone from outside the body and putting it in um you can cycle them very safely 5 days on 2 days off according to the research so talk to your doctor if your igf-1 is low about
• 186:00 - 186:30 raising your own production of growth hormone from your own pituitary I mean I don't care what anybody tells you there is no better hormone in the human body than one that the body produces on its own and so if I can get you high on your own Supply rather than taking it from outside the body and putting it in that's a win right um you're already clearly on hormone therapy your body is behaving the way that it should because you raise testosterone you raise free testosterone
• 186:30 - 187:00 the pituitary shuts down your own natural testicular production how does it do that it lowers these two hormones luteinizing and follicle stimulating hormone so this is a very natural response that you like to see um as testosterone goes up the p turns the signal down so that's what happened you inject testosterone duary turns the signal down perfectly normal response in in the body um DHEA believe it or not this is another one that uh is really
• 187:00 - 187:30 good to check because lots of men that have low levels of testosterone are clinically deficient in DHEA DHE dihydro eposter is basically the precursor for testosterone amongst other things we make testosterone from this compound so when this is is low it can lead to low hormone levels even though there's nothing wrong with your ability to make hormones you just don't have the raw material to do it so in men and women DHEA is a great one to check it's also
• 187:30 - 188:00 super easy to supplement with when you're on testosterone therapy there are powerful compounds called aromatase Inhibitors that they usually put you on to lower your production of estrogen anastrozol exemestane other ones but a very natural way to get test estrogen out of a male or female bloodstream without uh Pharmaceuticals is something called dim diim diolo methane it is synthesized from cruciferous vegetables
• 188:00 - 188:30 synthesized from something called three indol carbinol in cruciferous vegetables so taking dim which is over the counter if you have elevated estrogen or you're trying to control your estrogen that's another thing to talk to your doctor about much safer than being on uh far sules all right I know I'm throwing a lot at you my wife says I just eat people's face so I feel like she's like literally just I mean God forbid you sit next to me on like a commercial flight eat your
• 188:30 - 189:00 face we we actually flew from um from Miami to uh to to Dallas a while ago and uh and so my wife and my son and my daughter sat in the row of three seats behind me and I sit down on the aisle seat in front of them and there's a dude sitting in the middle seat so I sit down I'm like oh hey you know I'm just making some all talk I'm like oh what are you doing he goes oh I'm a family medicine practitioner I'm a sleep apnea specialist oh man I go oh are you and uh my wife literally
• 189:00 - 189:30 sandwiches her face between the seat and she goes he's going to eat your face and I did dude I put the trade table down so he couldn't get out I had a three- ring binder I pulled it out I go let me ask you a few questions stuck it was so funny 3 hours I just hate that poor dude's face he actually wanted to work for me while time it landed so it ended up pretty good um okay last few things here man um
• 189:30 - 190:00 another thing you want to look at on hormone panel which is very often overlooked is this guy right here shbg sex hormone binding globulin stands for sex hormone binding routine it does exactly what its name says it does it it is a protein that binds to sex hormones why is that important because when this rises in men and women it inhibits the conversion of testosterone into free testosterone and
• 190:00 - 190:30 what it does is it makes it look like your hormone levels are low when they're not you're producing adequate levels it's just this nasty protein is binding to it and carrying it out of the bloodstream they use shbg as birth control in women so you know whenever you look at Labs on a female that's on birth control very often their shpg is through the roof okay that's normal when that protein rises in a man if they don't check it they put them on hormone therapy unnecessarily because
• 190:30 - 191:00 shbg um binds to the testosterone and basically carries it out of the bloodstream without it being utilized so how do you lower shbg there's a couple ways to do it one of the best ways that we found to lower shbg is by taking the mineral Boron it's over the counter lots of supplement companies produce it um so our clinical team puts men that have high SBG on Boron as their shbg comes down women too the free testosterone
• 191:00 - 191:30 Rises so it's almost like being put on hormone therapy because you get your own natural Supply back so when you do a hormone panel you've got to look at luteinizing hormone follicle stimulating hormone testosterone free testosterone DHEA and hbg sex hormone findinding globulin because if you're not looking at those you're only looking at the hormone this is where very young men 21 22 23 year old men that should never be on testosterone get put on injectable
• 191:30 - 192:00 testosterone now they're relying on it for the rest of their life and they can't get their their their wife pregnant when it's time to have kids D because taking testosterone also lows the sperm count right you think of the testicle as kind of like a yin and yang sign one one side produces sperm one side produces testosterone pituitary usually drops the production of both in the presence of testosterone so once you start injecting it it lowers luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone
• 192:00 - 192:30 which lowers the production of testosterone and sperm right so one of the ways to avoid that is getting your shbg checked then final thing here man um your white blood cell count is in the normal range I want to call you your attention to the next levels here RBC hemoglobin hematocrite these are super important because remember I talked earlier about how your red blood cell count this is what carries oxygen in your blood everything that you perceive
• 192:30 - 193:00 about energy is nothing more than oxygen in your blood if you told me Gary I had a lot of energy today physiologically what you're saying is I had a lot of oxygen in my blood today so if oxygen equals energy which it does if I'm going to raise your energy level I need to raise your oxygen level how do I do that I improve the amount of red blood cells in the bloodstream and I improve the amount of hemoglobin in the bloodstream how do you do that you restore testosterone levels to normal and that
• 193:00 - 193:30 will increase the production of red blood cells I have hardly seen I don't think I don't know if I could say I've never seen it but very rarely have I seen a client that had very low levels of testosterone clinically low levels of testosterone that did not have clinically low levels of red blood cell and also complained of fatigue exhaustion poor shortterm shortterm memory um um poor focus and
• 193:30 - 194:00 concentration if if you want the latest research Google American Journal of Urology which is considered the Bible for male endocrine therapy just put into the Google search engine American Journal of Urology space testosterone scroll down to section uh 13 um and it will say um clinical guidelines for testosterone therapy read from 13 to 21 you will be sold on male hormone therapy they dispelled all the myths in this journal
• 194:00 - 194:30 it's a peer-reviewed clinical Journal all the research is cited there don't take my word for it that low testosterone is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease not the other way around testosterone does not increase your risk of of or hormone therapy does not increase your risk of cardiov ular disease hormone therapy does not increase your risk of developing prostate cancer or exacerbating prostate cancer it can improve erectile disfunction anemia bone mineral loss mood all of that research is right in there between sections 13 and 21 Journal
• 194:30 - 195:00 of American Urology space testosterone um that's one of the most revered journals in in in the world which is why I send people there if you're a physician and you disagree with that go to that journal and all the research is cited um so you want your red blood cell count to be in the upper end of the normal range and then you want to keep an eye on hemoglobin which is the fluid in the red blood cell you want that towards the upper end the range and you keep an eye on something called
• 195:00 - 195:30 hematocrite hematocrite is a measure of your blood's viscosity it tells me how close is your blood to water or how close is your blood to motor oil as your homat crit Rises your blood is thickening easiest way to reduce the viscosity of the blood without blood thinners is to do regular blood donations we call it therapeutic photomy if you are taking testosterone therapy your doctor should probably be recommending that you do regular blood donations this for men is very healthy
• 195:30 - 196:00 right if you look at the incidence of cardiovascular disease between men and women you'll see that men lead women by a huge margin until women stop menstrating then there's a parabolic hockey stick Spike and they begin to approximate men in the incidents of cardiovascular disease why is that because they stop turning their blood over right so doing regular blood donations for men is very healthy unless you have something going I'm not doing that justes it show that I I'm not doing that I should be doing that yes what is it what is regular um every 3 to six months
• 196:00 - 196:30 okay yeah your hematocrite is 50.2 which is considered pretty thick a 51 you're 8/10 of a point away from being Clin having clinically thick blood okay right from being clinically out of the range what you will notice you feel better right away okay um lots of clinics will also if you're one of those people that gets a lihe headed from donating blood you're not getting lie headed from the loss of blood you're getting lightheaded from the loss of pressure um because the
• 196:30 - 197:00 amount of pressure in the system is fixed so if I pull a pint of fluid out the pressure drops you get lightheaded so the way to solve that is to talk to your doctor about um running an iv put 500 milliliters of just thin clean fluid in then put the bag below the level of the heart pull 480 to 500 milliliters of thick old tired Blood Out the pressure will remain the same okay the viscosity will change so um that's I see our clinical team do that a lot last thing I'll point out is at the bottom of your
• 197:00 - 197:30 white blood cell count this goes overlooked very often these are in a specific order for a reason neutrophils basophils lymphocytes monocytes eosinophils all these fancy names for white blood cells you should see these num numbers like we do in you be highest at the top the next number should be lower the next number should be lower than that lower than that lower than that and eventually they should come to zero that v-shaped pattern is a very important pattern it
• 197:30 - 198:00 says how well oriented your immune system is we judge the strength of the immune system amongst other things by How It lines up and gets ready to fight how many soldiers do I have on the field of battle waiting for the enemy to show up your front line of defense right right here is your neutrophils you have plenty of nutrifil the numbers get smaller and smaller and smaller and they go down to zero as the numbers towards the bottom get elevated it usually indicates some kind of chronic problem
• 198:00 - 198:30 Metals mold microt toxin viruses okay that's when you want to make an inspection you've got zeros at the bottom that's a great sign if you've got numbers at the bottom of your white blood cell count talk to your doctor about digging into why you have potentially have a chronic infection you you will find that lots of people that have viral infections are misdiagnosed with neurological conditions it is very common for Parkinson's to be misdiagnosed when it could be a West Nile or a Lyme disease infection or
• 198:30 - 199:00 another um virus that well documented in the literature that the symptoms of a lot of neurological diseases parallel the symptoms of chronic viral conditions so it's always good if you get diagnosed with something chronic to say let's check for Metals mold microtox sins and and viruses and let's just see if my body is not behaving properly because I have pathogenic Invader so I would always
• 199:00 - 199:30 talk to your doctor before you accept any of those chronic diagnoses about looking into whether or not you have some underly condition V like viruses dude overall I I got men your age that would kill to have these Labs given your history that you disclosed to me on the podcast well that makes me feel good you're doing you're doing really well brother thank you um you're doing you're
• 199:30 - 200:00 doing very well thank you okay last thing we'll do is uh look at these um uh look at the genetic testing results that you have um oh boy this may come as a shock to you but you have the [ __ ] jeene so next time somebody calls you on say as a matter of fact I am um so uh these genes that are yellow okay um when we look at genetic reports they come out
• 200:00 - 200:30 all kinds of different ways but we generally want to see our um our genes green which means neither the mom or dad pass the mutation onto US past that genetic predisposition when they're yellow you means that one parent gave us the gene mutation um when they're red which you do not have it means that both parents gave you the gene mutation so in a nutshell um you have a genetic
• 200:30 - 201:00 predisposition for three things um one you have a genetic predisposition to be very poor at processing folic acid um you would be one of those people that would be really good to get folic acid out of your diet this do not mean that you can't eat bread pasta cereal grains it means you have to eat the organic nonfortified non-enriched versions of those okay okay so if you see fortified or enriched on the label just get it out of the diet this is the thing I warned a
• 201:00 - 201:30 lot of parents about too just get fortified or enriched foods out of your kids's diet for one week Watch What Happens you're going to be shocked that the behavioral changes so what would this cause in you cause your intestinal motility to slow down so intermittent gut is issues that can't be explained by what you're eating um it also inhibits your ability to um metabolize homocysteine which is why your homocysteine is slightly risen at the high end you have a gene
• 201:30 - 202:00 mutation called comp t catacol o methyl transferase this gene mutation makes it slow for you to break down cacola means you are absolutely one of those people which probably 70% of your your listeners when your environment quiets your mind wakes up when you L down to go to sleep at night you have one of two types of sleep patterns you either lay down tired and your mind keeps you awake and you have a hard time falling asleep
• 202:00 - 202:30 or you fall asleep and once you wake up at night that's it you sort of lay there just ruminating and you will think about the most innocuous nonsense it will not be like a lifechanging or shattering thought this is not like divorce bankruptcy Financial ruin change of business career it's none of those big life-changing events that should keep you awake it's little innocuous nonsense just runs through your head the best way to quiet that is with magnesium at night five methyl folate at night and there's
• 202:30 - 203:00 a supplement called neuro mundulla complex excellent for quieting no squirrels and just allowing your brain to calm down at night well good well perfect but dude I I'm telling you I got 42 43y old men that would kill the have these Labs so um that makes me feel good thank you yeah you're and I hope that wasn't too much of a science lesson because a lot of times they're especially like in presentations they're like you know
• 203:00 - 203:30 don't talk about the science um well they say don't talk about science religion or politics and I think we're talk talk about science religion and politics man well Gary we're wrapping up the interview here I know you got a flight catch yeah this is amazing man man what a I'm going to have I never go back and listen to my podcasts and um very few have I done that with and and uh I'll be listening to this probably several times just to just to remind
• 203:30 - 204:00 myself to to keep on the right track and and uh it's just so full of information thank you and you know it was an honor to meet you and have you here and um and I hope we remain friends yeah oh we're definitely going to remain friends I mean it wasn't real and honored uh you not real honor for me to be here too man I super appreciate you inviting me having me on your show exposing me to your audience you know my intention was to add some value today so I hope they got value out of it but we definitely got plenty I want to come back to the
• 204:00 - 204:30 new studio too brother I'll built the woods and we can fire off some weapons oh yeah we we'll have you out we'll blow some [ __ ] up and uh yes and uh it'll be a good time should be about 6 months but uh we'll definitely keep in touch and love to have you back so thank you Sean thank you appreciate you brother you too appreciate [Music]
