Yeah, you know, thanks Jake for asking. 64 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: I joked that my biological age is thirty nine, but 65 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: my back age is one hundred and thirty nine. And 66 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: when I was thirty two, I lived in Idaho and 67 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: a logging town. I was chopping wood and carrying heavy 68 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: wood and I ruptured a disk and it basically caused 69 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: massive damage and a permanent process of my right calf. 70 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: So I've lived for thirty odd years and my back's 71 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: just degenerated and I developed, you know, a lot of 72 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: degeneral dist disease, and so I fell out of back 73 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: pain and I ended up having an injection, which is 74 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: pretty common treatment to help relief pain, and one of 75 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: the rests of injections of any needle is infection. And 76 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: in a closed space of the spine, it just took 77 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: off and very quick. Within a couple of days, I 78 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: couldn't walk. Within a week, I had surgery. They opened 79 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: me up. They closed me up because they couldn't reach 80 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: the abscess it was on the front, and they said 81 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: we can't do anything, and basically left me to die. 82 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: Give me anybody and said cross your fingers and here's 83 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: some painkillers. 84 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: And they said there was no cure. 85 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: And then A friend of mine was a doctor, called 86 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: me and said, what's happened? I heard her sick and 87 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: I told him. He said, you need a second opinion. 88 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: So I got an opinion from the top of neuro 89 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: said surgery center in the world in UCSF, and they 90 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: said get out here right away. So I took an 91 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: ambulance jet and had another surgery a month later that 92 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: would really relieved the abscess. But in that intervening period, 93 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: I got septic. I was feverish. I lost twenty five 94 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: pounds from where I am now. I was in bed. 95 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: I couldn't eat sitting up. I literally had to lay 96 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: down with four pills outo my leg. And after the surgery, 97 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: thank god, it worked, but it was a hail Mary surgery, 98 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: and they said I was maybe a couple of days 99 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: away from dying. And I remember going on anesthesia on 100 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: the day of the second surgery, and I was like, 101 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: this could be my last moment of consciousness. In the 102 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: aftermath of that, you know, I I was on a walker. 103 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: I couldn't stand up, I couldn't brush my own teeth, 104 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: I couldn't wipe my own ass. I was like it 105 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: was bad and I had to depend on other people, 106 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: but slowly, you know, just determined. I clawed my way 107 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: back to health and using every principle that I know 108 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: of how to create health. And I'm sixty five. I'm 109 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: not a spring chicken, and I know what to do, 110 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: and I did it. And I wasn't sure if it 111 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: was going to work. At sixty five, you know, how 112 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: much can you get back? But I put on more 113 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: muscle and I'm stronger than I was even before the surgery. 114 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: And I just did it. Every day. It was like 115 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: compounding interest. Every day, I ate the best I could. 116 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: I got in the gym with my physical therapists, a 117 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: trainer every day, sometimes twice a day. I got treatments 118 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: and acupuncture, and I just clawed my way back, took 119 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: my supplements, took my creatine, took all the things I 120 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: needed to do. And it took about five months and 121 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: then I really started to kind of come back. And 122 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: it's only been seven months from the recording of this podcast, 123 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: and so I'm back and I feel good, and I 124 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: feel actually better than I ever had because I've doubled 125 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: down on my health practices. But it sort of shows 126 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: you if you know the laws of nature, the laws 127 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: of biology, how the body works, how it's designed, how 128 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: to create health. Right, because doctors don't learn about that. 129 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: They don't learn about how to create health. They learn 130 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: about how to diagnose the treat disease, which is important. 131 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: But if you say to your doctor, how do I 132 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: create health? Doctor, and they're like, well, I don't know, 133 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: just eat better, exercise. But it's a very specific methodology. 134 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: It's really what functional medicine's about. It's about how do 135 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: you create optimal function and how do you create optimal 136 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: health and what is the science of that? And so 137 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: doing that, I was able to actually build myself back 138 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: up and create health and actually feel better now than 139 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: I did before the surgery. 140 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, what did it take for you to rebuild? 141 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: Because we always talk about being proactive, talk about being 142 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 2: well first, which you focused on and you have. Yeah, 143 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 2: and when you end up in a position like that, 144 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 2: it's hard mentally, and then of course it's harder physically. 145 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 2: As you said, your body sixty five, even if your 146 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 2: biological age is thirty nine. There's a reality to that. Yeah, 147 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 2: what were the key things you had to work on? 148 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: You talked about building muscle again, what were the things 149 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 2: you had to do in order to get back to 150 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: standing in front of me right now and looking great. 151 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: The biggest component I think of your health is the 152 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: thing that's between your ears. It's your mindset, something you 153 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: talk about a lot. It's your determination. It's the belief 154 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:46,239 Speaker 1: that you can actually get better. And I was physiologically depressed. 155 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: I lost half my blood volume, so my blood count 156 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: was half of what it should have been, super anemic. 157 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: My hormones all were in the toilet, my testosterone, my thyroid, 158 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: nothing was working. I was very nutritionally depleted. I hadn't 159 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: really eat, and so for me, it was it was 160 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: just the will to get up every day and do 161 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: the little things, even when my mind was like, just 162 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: stay in bed, just give up. It's not worth it, 163 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: you know. And I think for a lot of people 164 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: it's hard to divorce your thoughts from reality. I think, 165 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: you know, you've lived in a monastery, and that's basically 166 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: what you learn is how you're not your thoughts, you're 167 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: not your beliefs, you're not your body, You're not right 168 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: and and so you know, but when you're in it, 169 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: like it's you're in a body. You're in a physical 170 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: body that feels bad. How do you fix that? And 171 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: so that's what I've done for thirty plus years with 172 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: my patients with folcial medicine, is when they feel bad. 173 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: And a lot of Americans out there feel bad. You know, 174 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: six out of ten of us have a chronic illness, 175 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: and ninety three percent of us are metabolically and healthy. 176 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: Most of the population has what I call FLC syndrome. 177 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: That's when you feel like crap. You know, whether it's 178 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: just little things like painful periods or headaches, or constipation 179 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: or joint aches or skin rashes or whatever it is. 180 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: You know, people suffer and there is a way through that. 181 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: And so for me, it was a mindset of not 182 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: believing my thoughts and no matter how physiologically depleted, I 183 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 1: was to just do the baby steps every day. That 184 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: got me to where I'm now, which is feeling awesome. 185 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: And I was in the gym at Equinox working out 186 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: for an hour this morning. 187 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 2: I was like, right, that's amazing, and I'm so I'm 188 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 2: so glad that you've I mean, you've helped so many 189 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 2: people over the years, but it's a special feeling when 190 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 2: you reuse your own work to rebuild. I mean, you 191 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: must have so much conviction and confidence and everything you're 192 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 2: about to share, Yeah, the episode now to help everyone else. 193 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: You must have a double sense of affirmation that this 194 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 2: stuff works because you've had to do it in the 195 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 2: most dire of circumstances. 196 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and I had to track all my blood work 197 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: and I had to track my nutrient status and adjust 198 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: it and customize it. But it was, you know, having 199 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: the knowledge that I have in the data I have, 200 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: which really now is through the magic of technology and 201 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: the explosion of the changes in our scientific framework of 202 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: how we understand the body. Like we're in this paradigm 203 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: shifting moment in medicine and healthcare, and the promise of 204 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 1: actually reversing chronic disease, of creating health, of people getting 205 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: free from a lot of the suffering, the needless suffering 206 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: that they have is now really possible. And that's really 207 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: what I'm so excited about. I mean, I'm just like 208 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: sixty five, and I'm working hard that I've ever worked, 209 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: because I believe that there's this moment where all the 210 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: things that I've done one on one with people or 211 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: through my books, you know, people come up with say, oh, 212 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: doctor him, and you saved my life or whatever. I'm like, 213 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 1: it's one by one by one. But what if this 214 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: can scale through through the ability of technology to make 215 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: sense of all your personal health data, customize an exact 216 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: plan for you and I do exactly on what to do, 217 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: when to do it, and how to adjust it over time. 218 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: It's that's where we are. It's pretty it's pretty cool. 219 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah. Do If someone's listening right now and they're saying, 220 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: doctor Mark common, I feel like crap. 221 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. 222 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 2: Like, if someone's listening right now and they're thinking I 223 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 2: feel like crap, where should they start? What do they do? 224 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: That's a great, great question. You know, there's a more 225 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: serious version, Jay, It's called fls. You feel like shit? 226 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, right? 227 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: But you know I I you know. I have found 228 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 1: that food is the most powerful tool to change your biology. 229 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: It's basically code or instructions that changes your physiology with 230 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: every single bite. It changes your gene expression, it changes 231 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: your hormones, your brain, chemistry, your immune system, your microbiome 232 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: are transmitters. Everything has changed, not in like years or decades, 233 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: but literally in minutes, and and so food is the 234 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: most powerful way to quickly shift your biology. And those people, 235 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: Jay have no clue that what they're eating is making 236 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: them feel bad, or that their sense of how they 237 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: are and their conditions that they're suffering from are caused 238 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: by food. And so what I've done through functional medicine 239 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: is it's often called an elimination diet, but I like 240 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: to call it an addition diet, because you're adding in 241 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 1: all the healing medicinal foods and you're dying, you're taking 242 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: out the inflammatory foods. And so I created a program 243 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: that I've used my patients called the ten Day Detox Diet, 244 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: and sometimes I would have people on for a year. 245 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: You know, if I call it the ten year detox diet, 246 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: nobody would do it. But I call it because in 247 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: ten days it's it's kind of raculous. And I run 248 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: programs around the world where I have people come together, 249 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: we spend a week, and the average reduction in symptoms 250 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: from the FLC syndrome, you know, whether it's you know, 251 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: sinus issues or allergies or irrebo bow or headaches or 252 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: joint pains or acne or insomnia or a depression or 253 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: all the little stuff that isn't like you know, cancer 254 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: or dementia or you know, a heart attack that's more serious. 255 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: All that stuff literally you don't. 256 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: Have to suffer from in ten days. 257 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's a seventy percent reduction in all symptoms 258 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: from all diseases in ten days. I mean, I was like, 259 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: when I first got to Cleveland clinic, I gave a 260 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: talk and this gentleman comes up to me. It says, 261 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: doctor Hyman, I have a rheumat arthritis. But I did 262 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: your ten day detox and it went away in ten days. 263 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: Is that possible? I'm like, yes, possible, it happened to you. 264 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: You know, walk me through the two types. What are 265 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 2: the medicinal foods and what are the highly inflammatory? 266 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: So the highly inflammatory foods are obviously all the ultra 267 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: process food, which is sixty percent of our diet. You know, 268 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: we have a whole food system that's designed to produce 269 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: commodity crops that's turned into ultra processed food that we're 270 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: consuming in massive amounts. It's seventy three percent of what's 271 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: on the grocery store shelves. It's hard to get away 272 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: from it. And it's it's, you know, stuff that you 273 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: know you wouldn't have in your kitchen, you wouldn't have 274 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: beutilated hydroxy taluinge to sprinkle on your vegetables, or mono 275 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: and diglycerize and bottle it to put on your salad dressing. Right, 276 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: it's maltodexter. Like all the crab is in there is 277 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: super inflammatory, the mulcifiers, additives, colors, dyes, and then there's 278 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: just a sugar and starch. I mean, we each in 279 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: America average eat a pound of sugar and flour a 280 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: day per person. That's an insane amount of sugar and flour, 281 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: and that's incredibly inflammatory. Some people react to dairy, some 282 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: people react to gluten or grains, and so I take 283 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: away all the things that are potentially reacted, not that 284 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: they're necessarly bad foods, but a lot of people have 285 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: gut issues, and that that people have gut issues have 286 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: trouble with grains and gluten in this country is very 287 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: different than other places, like in Europe where we were 288 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: talking about what we both were this summer, and they're 289 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: it's a different genetic strain. They don't use the same 290 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: chemicals on it. They don't spray with life essay, which 291 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: is a microbiome destroyer, and so that that often is 292 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: a factor in causing leaky gut and inflammation. So I 293 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: remove all that sugar, processed food, flour, grains, and add 294 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: in all the foods that are healing, alcohol, caffeine sometimes, 295 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: and then add in lots of fruits and vegetables, nuts 296 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: and seeds, you know, good quality protein, lots of good fats, avocados, 297 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: coconut all that stuff. It's just pretty simple. It's like 298 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: it's not that hard and it doesn't have to be 299 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: that expensive, and in a very short amount of time 300 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: people for better. The first few days people feel bad 301 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: because what happens is when you stop eating the foods 302 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: that you're reacting to, you get what's called a die 303 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: off reaction. So basically all the immune cells that are 304 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: busy dealing with all the crap you're eating all the 305 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: time have nothing to do, so they form these things 306 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: called immune complexes, like they glomp together. And then it's 307 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: like you feel like you have the flu. And that 308 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: lasts maybe a couple of days, and then after by 309 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: day three, four or five, you're like sleeping better, you 310 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: have more energy, your head's clear, your symptoms are getting better, 311 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: and even in five six days, seventy percent reduction. And 312 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, we have an online programs called the Candidtox. 313 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: You can go to tend adtox dot com. We've done 314 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: it with thousands of people and it's like I'm always 315 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: a sound and what I see, like does this really 316 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: work out? Well? You know, because it's like it's almost 317 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: sounds going to be true. That's incredible, But it's just 318 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: it just shows you that food is medicine. And it's 319 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: not metaphorically medicine. It literally is medicine. 320 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 2: Before we dive into the next moment, let's hear from 321 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 2: our sponsors and back to our episode. I want to 322 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 2: dive into each of those three areas of the inflammatory foods. 323 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 2: First of all, for anyone who's not aware or doesn't 324 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 2: totally understand, what is inflammation? What is that doing to 325 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 2: your body? Why is it important to have medicinal foods 326 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 2: and avoid inflammatory foods? 327 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: Yeah? Well, you know, the inflammation is something that now 328 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: is being understood to be at the root cause of 329 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: almost all chronic illnesses and aging itself. You know, and 330 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: you'll know if you have inflammation, right, you have a 331 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 1: sore throat, you get an infected finger from a splinter, 332 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: you sprain your ankle, you know, those are signs of inflammation. Yeah, 333 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: those are signs of inflammation, but there's another kind of 334 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: inflammation that's a little more silent, and we can measure 335 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: that through blood tests like see racket protein, which we 336 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 1: do through function health. And the amount of people who 337 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: are inflamed is just so massive because of our diet, 338 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 1: and so that creates this elevation in these molecules in 339 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: our body called cytokines. And you from COVID. Everybody heard 340 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: about the cytokine storm. What killed people was this overwhelming 341 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: inflammation And why did Americans die at a far greater rates. 342 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 1: We are four percent of the population but sixteen percent 343 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: of the deaths in cases of COVID in the world, 344 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: so four times what we should have been. It wasn't 345 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: because we didn't have access to medical care or we 346 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: didn't have good doctors. It's because we're all pre inflamed. 347 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: We're all metabolic and healthy, and the worst kind of 348 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: inflammation is that that comes from your belly fat. So 349 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: I just saw a couple of days ago who was 350 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: fifty two years old and you know, looked pretty healthy, 351 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: but he had like a little gut on him, like 352 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: not big, and he had thirty two percent body fat 353 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: in his belly, and that visceral fat is like a 354 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: incubator for inflammation. It's basically a fire in your belly. 355 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: And that vistral fact cause heart attacks, strokes, cancer, obviously diabetes, 356 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: and that he had a blockage and ninety percent blockage 357 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: in his heart and it was because he had this 358 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 1: inflamed silent killer inside of him. And so so it's 359 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: not just the inflammation that you know by getting a 360 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: sore throat. It's it's the quiet inflammation that you don't 361 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: know you have and that leads to all these things 362 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: can like not just the obvious things like autommune diseases, 363 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: which we can talk about allergies, but you know things 364 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 1: that are more subtle, whether it's you know, hormonal issues 365 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 1: like menstrual crams, or issues like migraines or headaches or 366 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: fatigue or all these things are signs of this fire 367 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: raging through your body that you don't know about that's 368 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: killing you. And so by eating an inflammatory diet and 369 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: removing the inflammatory foods, like your body will quickly reset. 370 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: I mean your body has innate intelligence is which is 371 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: a miracle for me when you think about it. Your 372 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: body is a healing machine, Like, look what happened to me? 373 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: I mean I was in bed, I couldn't walk, I 374 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: was on a walker, I was emaciated, I was close 375 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: to death. And when I put the right inputs in, 376 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: my body healed. And it's amazing. I've had patients who 377 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: are sixty five with heart failure, diabetes, hypertension, kidneys failing, 378 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: liver failing, who actually didn't take ten days, but like 379 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: you know, three months. They were off all their medications, 380 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: all the reverse, all these conditions. Even at sixty five 381 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: or sixty six years old, the body can do that. 382 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: And so that's really what I want for people. I 383 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: want them to have access to the knowledge, the ability 384 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: and the tools to be able to do this for 385 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: themselves and to try it. And I don't say the 386 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: smartest doctor in you room is your own body, if 387 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: you listen to it. Gee, when I eat this, my 388 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: stomach doesn't feel good. When I have that, I get 389 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: a headache. But most people don't connect the dots machine 390 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: what they eat and how they feel. 391 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, we base it all on lifestyle, and we also, 392 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 2: like the gentlemen you were treating, we still live in 393 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 2: this world of oh I'm not that big, small looking 394 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 2: at this physical attribute when actually the inflammation is all 395 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 2: happening on the inside. 396 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was jogging every day. 397 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's doing all the right things, but there's this 398 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 2: hidden part. One of those hidden things is sugar. I 399 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: find it really shocking when I was playing pickleball the 400 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 2: other day and someone said to me that, oh, let's 401 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 2: have this drink. Like we didn't have we we didn't 402 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 2: have any water accessible at the time. We were waffling thirsty. 403 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 2: It was pretty hot. Yeah, and he had these like 404 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 2: packs of drinks, and so he handed to me. My 405 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 2: wife has trained me to I turned it around and 406 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 2: it was like, forty percent of your daily sugars in 407 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 2: this little pack. Right, it was tiny. I don't even know. 408 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 2: It's cool forty percent of your daily sugars had all 409 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 2: these other non natural ingredients I didn't recognize at all, 410 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 2: massive lists. And I said to him, I said, dude, 411 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 2: like I'm not drinking this. 412 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 413 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:13,719 Speaker 2: I was like, I'm not, I'm not gonna have it. 414 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 2: I was like, I'm not gonna have forty percent of 415 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 2: my sugars in this. And I try and avoid refined 416 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 2: sugar anyway, And but to him that was crazy. He 417 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 2: was just like, oh, dude, it's fine, Like we're running 418 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 2: for like three hours, like we you know, it's just 419 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 2: a hydration. I was like, yeah, but you don't need 420 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 2: the sugar with it, And I find that sugar is 421 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 2: something I still get a lot of pushback on real. 422 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 2: Yeah people even that's that's my reaction because I feel 423 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 2: like I've been so like well educated by yourself. The 424 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,479 Speaker 2: other experts on the show, my wife who were constantly 425 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 2: because I used to be addicted to sugar easy, and 426 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, you get so talk to me 427 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 2: about sugar. Because I think there's a way in which 428 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 2: we've been brainwashed to think it's okay. 429 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, actually, Jay, you know, we know alcohol is addictive, right, 430 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 1: But there's been large studies done using the Yale Food 431 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: Addiction Scale, which is a scientifically validated metric that measures 432 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 1: food addiction, and it's primarily sugar and starch. And fourteen 433 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: percent of people in this country are alcoholics, but fourteen 434 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: percent are also addicted to food, and fourteen percent of kits, 435 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: which is a lot of kids. So it's biologically addictive 436 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: a little bit. It's not going to hurt you if 437 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: you're healthy, if you're fit, you can have some. It's 438 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: it's just the volume that we have in this culture. 439 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: I mean, it's something that our biology doesn't know what 440 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: to do with. Historically, we were one hunter gathers. We 441 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,439 Speaker 1: had twenty two teaspoons a year. Now the average percess 442 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: twenty two teaspoons a day. 443 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: Wow, Yeah, that is mind blowing. 444 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 445 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 2: If you had two teaspoons a year, so. 446 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: You were a hunter gatherer, you'd like, get some honey. 447 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I found honey, you know, and you'd 448 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: eat it. But it was hard to get. 449 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 2: Sugar, and you were more active than to Yeah. 450 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: And you're running yeah all the time, you're. 451 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 2: Looking for that job honey. Yeah, no, jaw, Sorry, it 452 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 2: was actually I was. 453 00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: I was in the Hadza tribe, which is one of 454 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: the last time gathered tribes in Africa, and they eat 455 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 1: a lot of honey. They eat like twenty percent of 456 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: calorie of honey. But they're super fit healthy because they're 457 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: just like eating tons of fiber. So they basically all 458 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: the roots in the tubers have massive amounts of fiber. 459 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: Americans eat about eight grams of fiber a day. We 460 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,719 Speaker 1: were historically as hunter gatherers, having one hundred and fifty 461 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: grams a day, and fiber basically is like a sponge. 462 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: So for example, if you take your coca cola and 463 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: you're throwing a bunch of meta musil, it's going to 464 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: have a very different effect on your blood sugar. It's 465 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: going to turn to gel first of all, if you 466 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: leave it there for long enough, and then if you 467 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: drink it, it's not going to cause the same spike. 468 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: So it's just the whole context of our diet has 469 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: just become highly processed. Lots of sugar, and it drives 470 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: the visceral fat, so sugar and starch. And by the way, 471 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: below the neck, your body can't tell the difference between 472 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 1: a bowl of corn flex and a bowl of sugar 473 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: or a blowf of bread and you know, a bowl 474 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: of sugar it's the same. In fact, it sometimes in 475 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: terms of glycemic index, the bread is worse because it's 476 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: pure glucose, whereas sugar is fryctose and glucose, which has 477 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: different effects on your blood sugar. But basically they're both 478 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: the same. And what that does is that is that 479 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: drives the deposition of belly fat, and that belly fat 480 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: which is not just holding up your pants it's it's 481 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: metabolically very active. It produces tons of inflammation, screws up 482 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 1: your hormones. It causes infertility, it causes Alzheimer's disease, it 483 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 1: causes cancer, it causes diabetes, causes heart attacks, it causes 484 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: aging itself. And when you look around in America, ninety 485 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: three percent of us, well ninety three point two to 486 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: be exact, have this metabolic dysfunction. I mean, six point 487 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: eight percent of us don't, which is frightening, frightening, And 488 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: it's not how humans evolved. We didn't evolve like that. People, 489 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: the Native Americans there, you know, genetically diabetic, Well, no, 490 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: they're not like the Pema Indians one hundred years ago 491 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: had no diabetes, no obesity, no heart attacks. And now 492 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: they're you know, get eighty percent good diabetes by the 493 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: time you're thirty, and even two year olds get type 494 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 1: of diabetes because they're just drinking tons of sugar, sodas 495 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: and flower and all the commodities that we sent to 496 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: the reservations that are all the crap we should meeting. 497 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 1: So so, yeah, if you put your genes in the 498 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: wrong environment, the jeens may load the gun, but the 499 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: environment pulls the trigger. 500 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 2: I want to give a shout out to this incredible 501 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 2: company that you brought my way, Function Health. When you 502 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 2: first brought it to me, I was so impressed at 503 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 2: what it does because I think everything we're talking about, 504 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 2: the challenges, we don't know until we feel something in 505 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 2: quite an extreme way, right, So we just don't know. 506 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 2: As humans, we don't know these things. We were never 507 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 2: taught them. If I didn't meet my wife, if I 508 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 2: didn't have this podcast, I wouldn't be educated. Just how 509 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 2: would I know this? And when you talk about the 510 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 2: ninety three point two percent, that's all of us who 511 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 2: just don't know. And then you, my wife and you 512 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 2: and people like that, the six point eight percent, I 513 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 2: love you by the way, Yeah, And all of a 514 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 2: sudden you get educated. And then that's what Function Health does. 515 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 2: The fact that you can take. 516 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 1: These look under the hood. 517 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 2: You can get all the results. You know it from 518 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 2: being at home or or you know, popping to get 519 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 2: a get a test done. You have access to actually 520 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 2: know what's happening inside your body. And I became a 521 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 2: proud investor in the company when you first brought it 522 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 2: to me because I'd never seen someone make that kind 523 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 2: of data available at mass and at scale. I was 524 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 2: going to some concierge services, which I'm very fortunate to 525 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 2: have access to, but I didn't see how the world 526 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 2: the night is roupe one two per second kind of 527 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 2: access to these things. And that's what function heal's doing. 528 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, imagine imagine driving your car. You don't 529 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: have any dashboard. You don't know how fast you're going, 530 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: and how much gas to the car, you how much 531 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 1: oil in there. You don't think engine light's good, you 532 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: have your tire pressure's good. I mean, think of the 533 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: amount of sensors and information you get from your car 534 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: these days. Right, we practice medicine today like listening to 535 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: the noises a car makes and hoping we can figure 536 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: it out instead of looking under the hood. And so, 537 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: you know, I believe we should be testing and not 538 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: guessing and what's going on with their health. And the 539 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 1: wearables are great, you know, or a ring or a 540 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: fitbit or you know, apple washed awesome boop. They tell 541 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: you a lot, but they don't go under the skin. 542 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 1: And so you need to know what's happening in your biology. 543 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 1: And the truth is that disease doesn't just happen like that. 544 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: One day you get a heart attack. It's a slow 545 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 1: progression over decades, and you can see the continuum of 546 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: what happens, and you can see slight changes in variations 547 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: that will compound over time and make you ultimately very sick. 548 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,719 Speaker 1: And the beautiful thing about functional health is you can 549 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: actually get your biomarkers done. There over one hundred and 550 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: ten biomarkers or initial tests, you do a second test 551 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: mid year. You can add on tests for looking at 552 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: other things, whether you want toxins or allergens or lime disease, 553 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: whatever you want to know about yourself. And then you 554 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: get this beautiful dashboard that shows you exactly what's going on, 555 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: like you know, you've got like on a car dashboard, 556 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 1: and you can see the change over time, and then 557 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: you can learn what to do about it and what's 558 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: going on with your body and how to make adjustments. 559 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: And you get all the information supported by all the 560 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: scientific literature in the world, by knowledge experts, by your 561 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: own personal data set, and it's really medicine designed for you. 562 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 1: And it's really quite a remarkable thing, and people seem 563 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: to have taken to it because we have, you know, 564 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousand members and people are learning so much 565 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: about their health, and I've been shocked at the data 566 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 1: that we're finding, you know, like we've found all these 567 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: cancers that I was just reviewing our cancer screening and god, 568 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: you know, people don't know they have cancer. I mean, 569 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: I had a friend that just died like a month 570 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: ago from breast cancer at forty five years old. Is heartbreaking, 571 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,719 Speaker 1: you know. And now through the blood tests you can 572 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: get through function health, you can actually see like a 573 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: liquid biopsy for fifty different cancers. And I was reviewing 574 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: the spreadsheet of all the people and what they found 575 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,239 Speaker 1: and in a follow up, and like they didn't know 576 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: they had cancer, and then they found it in an 577 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: early stage and then it saves their lives as opposed 578 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: to waiting until too late. So you know, it's always 579 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: and the whole thing of the metabolic health. I mean, 580 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: most doctors don't check insulin, which is it's really important 581 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: to know about because insulin is what goes up first, 582 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: not your blood sugar. Most doctors don't look at the 583 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: right cholesterol test ApoB is the most important. Has had 584 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: a friend send me an article doctor him and look 585 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: at this article. It's about this latest new test for 586 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: predicting heart attack risks. It's better than any other tests, 587 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: and like, what is it. I'm like, I looked it 588 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: up and it's like, oh, it's called apo B. I'm like, 589 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: I've been testing that for thirty years. It's the most 590 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: predictive partment. But people check your LDL cholesterol, that's not 591 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: the thing that matters. And so we do that, and 592 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: we do deeper analysis of your metabolic health, your nutritional health, 593 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: looking at toxins, your hormones, and we're finding autoimmune diseases. 594 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I looked it up before I came on 595 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,959 Speaker 1: the podcast Curious because it you know, about eight percent 596 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: according to the you know, CDC of Americans have an 597 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: autommune disease. But when I looked at our data, we're 598 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: seeing thirty three percent have a positive automne to anybody, 599 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: which is incredible. I mean that's a third of Americans 600 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: have some either autoimmun disease or pre autoimmun disease. And 601 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: there's stuff you can do about it and get to 602 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: the root cause. And what's beautiful about it is that 603 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: we use root cost medicine, not just oh you have 604 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: an autommunitsease, take this drug or you have high cholesterol, 605 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: take this drug. It's like, well, how do I solve 606 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: this using all the world side of knowledge about how 607 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: to best do this through lifestyle and dealing with root 608 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: causes and creating health rather than just mitigating symptoms or 609 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: suppressing symptoms. So it's it's pretty exciting. And I think, 610 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: you know we now have full body imaging for four 611 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: and ninety nine. You know you can get your whole 612 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: blood test for four nine dollar dollar thirty seven a day. 613 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 2: I'm really impressed by what you offered. And I love 614 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 2: what function Health has done so much that I didn't 615 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 2: just invest. I've got every member of my team and membership. 616 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 2: That's amazing because I couldn't think of a better gift. 617 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 2: That is, if people then accessing their knowledge and knowing 618 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 2: what's happening inside their body, like if I want people 619 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 2: to perform at work, feel their best, and care about 620 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 2: their health. To me, it felt like the right thing 621 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 2: to do. And so and I know you've actually created 622 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 2: a You've created a discount for our community.

It's really striking. I mean things 647 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: that were rare one hundred and fifty years ago, you know, 648 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: turn the or one hundred and twenty years going turn 649 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: of the nineteen hundreds. If you had a heart attack 650 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: in a hospital, it would be like seeing this rare 651 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: case of malaria in like Manhattan, you know, like all 652 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: the doctors would rush around to see this unusual case. Wow, 653 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: diabetes wasn't even the thing, type two diabetes. If you 654 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: look at the records of Mass General and then the 655 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: eighteen fifties, it wasn't even a diagnosis. You know, people 656 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: didn't have it. So why are we seeing this explosion? 657 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: And autommune disease. They're over one hundred different automun diseases, 658 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: you know, everything from hashimotis thyroiditis, which is affecting one 659 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: in five women that's an automne thire condition, one in 660 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: ten men, lupis, rheumaturistritis, MS colitis, Crone's disease. There are 661 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: over one hundred different automune diseases and people are suffering 662 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: from these things and the drugs that we use are 663 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: incredibly toxic. They basically suppressed your immune system. They have 664 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: all these side effects, and they're extremely expensive, and they 665 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: don't necessarily always work that well. And the question then 666 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: is why are we doing this? I mean, this is 667 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 1: what functional medicine is about, is what function that's created 668 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: on the basis of this idea of why not what 669 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: disease you have? And what drug do I get? But why? 670 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: And the reason why we're seeing such an explosion about 671 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: immune disease is a combination of different factors. One, Our 672 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: diet has changed dramatically over the last fifty to seventy 673 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: years because of industrialization of agriculture, the use of pesticides, herbicides, 674 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: the increasing rates of c section means you don't colonize 675 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: your gut and sixty percent of your immune systems in 676 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: your gut, and a lot of aout immune disease is 677 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 1: caused by trouble with the gut, the increasing it's a 678 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: formula feeding, you know, not breast milk, which protects the 679 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: baby's immune system, is necessary for the development of them. 680 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean, twenty five percent of the calories in breast 681 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: milk is not digestible by the baby. It's to feed 682 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: the microbiome, which is amazing. Yeah, it's crazy. And when 683 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 1: you eat have formula, you don't have that in there, 684 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 1: and so the microbombs are disturbed and then you get 685 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: leaky gut. We use lots of antibiotics and children, we 686 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: have accelerated vaccine schedules. Vaccines, I believe in. I think 687 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: they're important. But like when I was a kid and 688 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: when my kids were kids, was that long ago, there 689 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: was you know, a limited set of vaccines and now 690 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: it's free for all. 691 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 2: And the vaccino that's how you take fifteen or sixteen. 692 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like seventy two different jabs of shots, and 693 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: so that that affects your immune system. And they do 694 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: they do things that affect your immune system by putting 695 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: in irritants like aluminum, and then the exposure to environmental chemicals. 696 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: It's exploded metals, pesticide. The average newborn baby today a 697 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: j has two hundred and eighty seven toxins in their 698 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 1: umbilical cord blood before they take their first breath, including 699 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: stuff that's been banned for years like DDT and dioxin, PCBs, dalades, 700 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: flame retardants, lead, mercury, pesticides, herbicides, I mean, you name it, 701 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 1: it's in there. And so all that has an impact, 702 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: and they're called otogens. There's a whole science around this 703 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: that these are environmental toxins that cause autommunity. And I've 704 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: seen many patients with autommune diseases that we cured by 705 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: getting rid of their heavy metals or detoxifying their bodies. 706 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: And so these toxins are a huge factor. And then 707 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: you've got all the modern stresses. You know, we low's sleep, 708 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 1: you know, we're under too much chronic stress, you know, 709 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,800 Speaker 1: light pollution, who knows what EMF. I don't even know 710 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: if that's the thing, but I'm not saying it is. 711 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: I'm saying it is all this stuff that we never 712 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: had to deal with, and we're just seeing our immune 713 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: system become sodisregulated. And the ultra processed food revolution has 714 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 1: been another huge factor because in ultra processed food there's 715 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: all these emulsifiers. Mulcifiers are basically the things that make 716 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 1: stuff creamy. And you know, like if you ever got 717 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: some of the like nut milks, and they separate out 718 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: when you put in your coffee, it's because they don't 719 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: use the multifiers right, and must fires basically make things creamy, 720 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 1: and they're using almost all ulstra processed food and they 721 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: damage the gut lining and they cause a what we 722 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: call a leaky gut where the cells come apart and 723 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: then food and bacteria leak in between your cells. And 724 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,600 Speaker 1: then right underneath your cell lining, which is just one 725 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: cell thick, is most of your immune system. And think 726 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: about why why is most of your immune sism in 727 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: your gut? Well, it's because where you're exposed to most 728 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,760 Speaker 1: of the foreign stuff. Every day, you're putting pounds of 729 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 1: foreign food in there, and you're putting all the bacteria 730 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: from your microbiome. There's three pounds of bacteria in there 731 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: that is, you know, basically a sewer, you know, and 732 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:55,760 Speaker 1: it's like one you're one cell away from a sewer. 733 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 1: And so when that breaks down, your immune system to go, 734 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 1: this isn't me what's going on, and it starts attacking 735 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 1: things and then it creates just a lot of mistake 736 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 1: and identity things we call molecular mimicry, where it thinks 737 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: it's attacking a bacteria or food, but then it'll attack 738 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: your joints or your eyes, or your your your nerves 739 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 1: and get MS and your thyroid gland. So basically we're 740 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: seeing this explosion and and the beautiful thing is by 741 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: understanding the root causes that you can actually reverse it. 742 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: I had an automune disease. I actually had mold in 743 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: my house. I've gotten everything known to man. I got 744 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 1: lined to these mold and I had I lived an 745 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 1: old barn. I got really bad mold poisoning. And then 746 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 1: on top of that, I had a root canal, had 747 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: it removed, had an antibiotic. The antibodic called something called 748 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: seed diff, which is a bacteria that causes really bad 749 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: gut infections that turned into all sort of colitis. My 750 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: whole intestinal track was just one big red mess and 751 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: I had to heal it. And so you know, there 752 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,879 Speaker 1: is a methodology for creating health. And that's that's that's 753 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: that's what I want people to know. Why function hell. 754 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,959 Speaker 1: It's so important because it teaches you how to turn 755 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,280 Speaker 1: on your own innate healing system. You've got a healing regenda, 756 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: repair and renewal system. That's why I could come back 757 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: from the dead, because I knew how to turn on, 758 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: you know, And that's what I want everybody to know. 759 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: And that's really why I do what I do, Why 760 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: have the podcast, why I write books, why travel? I 761 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 1: speaking like you, it's the same the same movie, different 762 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 1: different story. 763 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 2: And you know, what are the signs for someone who's 764 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 2: listening of a weak immune system and a strong immune system? Yeah, 765 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:31,919 Speaker 2: how do they tell? 766 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the inflammation immune system are little 767 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 1: bit different because you're you know, you're you're you can 768 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 1: be inflamed, but have a weaker immune system. So frequent infections, 769 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 1: frequent colds, feeling run down. I mean, there are signs 770 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: that that your immune system's not working, and you get 771 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 1: you know, less resilient to stress, you get sick more easily, 772 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: and so there's those are signs that there's problems. And 773 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,879 Speaker 1: and one of the things we find through functional health 774 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 1: is that so many people have nutritional deficiencies and nutrients 775 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 1: like zinc and vitamin D and iron's big role in 776 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: your immune function. 777 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 2: And it's actually even supplements is such a bad word 778 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 2: for supplements because it sounds like something that you know, 779 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 2: you're just supplementing. But it's like, yeah, exactly, that's what 780 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 2: I mean. 781 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 1: Right. 782 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 2: The word supplement in and of itself feels like it's 783 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 2: an add on, rather than like this is necessary right right, 784 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,240 Speaker 2: Like I think we're still living in this time where 785 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 2: supplements haven't become the norm. People see it as some 786 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 2: health hack tip as opposed to know this is just 787 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 2: what your body needs is nutrients. 788 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: My joke is, I don't think anybody needs supplements, but 789 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: only under certain conditions. They have to hunt and gather 790 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: their own wild food. They have to drink pure clean water, 791 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: be exposed to no environmental toxins, have no chronic stress, 792 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: sleep nine hours a night, go to bed with the sun, 793 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,759 Speaker 1: wake up with the time. Then then if you do 794 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 1: all that, you might not need to. 795 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 2: Like I'm the last six the first three, and. 796 00:39:55,360 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 1: You haven't gone hunting today. Yeah, And so our soils 797 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:04,360 Speaker 1: that become damaged because of the soil right in the 798 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: way your plants get nutrients is because of the organic 799 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: matter in the soil. It has a symbiotic relationship with 800 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: the microbes in the soil and with the plant roots 801 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: that then allows it to extract the nutrients. But if 802 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: you basically grow plants in dirt, not soil, where there's 803 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 1: no nutrients or they're not accessible because the body that 804 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 1: the plants can't get them because they don't have the 805 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 1: right organic matter to create the symbotic relationship. Your broccoli 806 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: today is fifty percent less nutrients than it did fifty 807 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 1: years ago. Plus you know, we do a lot of 808 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 1: things to cause more stress for our bodies. We need 809 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,320 Speaker 1: more nutrients, and like magnesium is a very big nutritional 810 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: deficiency because when you're stressed, you pee out magnesium, and 811 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,840 Speaker 1: then we don't eat a lot of magnesium rich foods 812 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: like nuts and seeds and beans and leafy greens. Right, 813 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 1: It's not a big part of American's diet. So a 814 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: lot of people are low in magnesium and low vitamin D. 815 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: We see eighty percent of people being insufficient or deficient 816 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 1: in vitamin D, which is incredibly important for immune function. 817 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 1: And I mean COVID. If your vitamin D was low, 818 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 1: you were seventy five percent more likely to end up 819 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: in the ICU and die, whereas if your vitamin D 820 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: was over fifty this big Israeli study there were no deaths. 821 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 1: So that's that powerful there. There. There are things that 822 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: regulate almost every biochemical reaction in your body. And you've 823 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,280 Speaker 1: got thirty seven billion trillion chemical reactions every second happening 824 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 1: every one of those, and that's a big number on 825 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 1: you know, nominy zeros is. I think it's twenty seven 826 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: zeros And every single one of those reactions requires a 827 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: nutrient to work as a cofractor for the enzymatic reaction, 828 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: and most of us are deficient in fact with function health. 829 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 1: We do deep nutritional testing Omega three's vitamin D, all 830 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 1: the B vitamins, iron and so forth, and we find 831 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: sixty seven percent of our members, who you think would 832 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 1: be forward thinking about their health, are deficient in nutrients, 833 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 1: not at the level that I would think would be optimal, 834 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: but at the level that prevents a deficiency disease, so like, 835 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 1: not the ideal amount, but the bare minimums you don't 836 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 1: get like rickets or scurvy or you know, like and 837 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: that's that's sixty seven persents. If you've expanded the criteria 838 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 1: to be what's optimal, it would probably be even more. 839 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's scary to think about it, but it's 840 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 2: so important to start being aware right now. Can someone 841 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:22,440 Speaker 2: know that they have some symptoms of an autoimmune disease, 842 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 2: Like is it possible. 843 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: Well, there's pre autommune disease, like there's pre diabetes or 844 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 1: pre hypertension. And I don't like those terms because they 845 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 1: imply that it's you haven't gotten into trouble yet, but 846 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 1: you are in trouble. There is something bad happening, and 847 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 1: so you have to actually look at the blood work 848 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,720 Speaker 1: to help you identify if you're heading in the wrong direction, 849 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,879 Speaker 1: and you can see, but then you could you could 850 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 1: be somebody who's suffering from low grade symptoms. You might 851 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: not know it like fire, it is really common. You 852 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,320 Speaker 1: might be a little tired, you might be a little constipated. 853 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: You might a little dry skin, Your nails might crack 854 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 1: a little bit. You might be losing out of thirugh 855 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: of your eyebrow. You might feel little depressed. You might 856 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: have lower sex drive, and the things people don't really 857 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: getting a little bit of weight. People don't think of 858 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 1: these as a disease, but when you add them all together, 859 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:10,280 Speaker 1: it's an auto immune thyroid issue, right, and even gut issues. 860 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 1: You know, irritable bewel. A lot of people have digestive issues, 861 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: and it's a really continuum from irroo beillel to automune 862 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: bowel disease, which is where you get colitis or Crow's disease, 863 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 1: and so it's a continue A lot of people have 864 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: this low grade inflammatory stuff going on in their bodies, 865 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:29,840 Speaker 1: and it's really it's unfortunate because we know how to 866 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,440 Speaker 1: fix it. And this is really what we do in 867 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 1: functional medicine. Is why I think testing and understanding what's 868 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: going with your body before you get in trouble. It's like, 869 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 1: you know, the first symptom of a heart attack, you 870 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: know what it is for most people, For fifty percent 871 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 1: of people with heart disease, the first symptom is sudden 872 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: death updeate of heart attack. Like this guy was telling 873 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: you about. He was jogging and he kept having chest 874 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 1: pain and he was ignoring it, and then he finally 875 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 1: decided to go check it out because his girlfriend made 876 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,919 Speaker 1: him go, and turned out he had a nine percent 877 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 1: blockage and he wouldn't know anym he could have just 878 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: dropped out of a heart attack like that. 879 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 2: Before we dive into the next moment, let's hear from 880 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 2: our sponsors. Thanks for taking a moment for that. Now 881 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 2: back to the discussion. What are the shifts we should 882 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 2: be making right now? If someone's listening, they're going to 883 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 2: go get the test if they can. If they can't, 884 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 2: because you know, for whatever reason, they don't live in 885 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 2: the States because we're not available internationally. No, not yet, 886 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 2: get no, yeah, yeah, I get a lot of that 887 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 2: in my comments. Actually, yeah, yeah. There's a lot of 888 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 2: people I know in Uken, Europe who really want it 889 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 2: and Australia and other places. But you've got your results, 890 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,839 Speaker 2: you know what's going on. Where would you encourage people 891 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 2: to begin if they they don't have anything serious right now, 892 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 2: but they want to make sure they get this. 893 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, I'm not trying to say anything here, 894 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 1: but I think doing a short term reset is powerful. 895 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 1: The way I think about it is, how how do 896 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 1: you turn your body back to its original factory settings. 897 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: A baby comes out, it's generally perfect, it's beautiful, it's healthy, 898 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 1: everything works right, And then think breakdown. But imagine it 899 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 1: like if your computer is you know, not working or 900 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: it's on the fritz, and like my WhatsApp wasn't working 901 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: today and I just had to reboot it right or 902 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,800 Speaker 1: reboot my computer. How do you do that with your body? 903 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 1: And that's really what this dietary change that I call 904 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 1: the ten day detox side is about. It's about really 905 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 1: putting your body back to its original factory settings. For 906 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 1: most people, it will create a dramatic shift. If you 907 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: don't get better from it, it's usually because there's something 908 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: more serious, like you have lime disease, you have mold 909 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 1: exposure that's causing toxicity, you have maybe environmental toxins or 910 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 1: lime disease, or something serious that needs another treatment. But 911 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 1: for most people, just a simple ten day approach to 912 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 1: resetting your system by getting into sleep, by cutting out 913 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: the bad stuff, by taking walks, by doing a little 914 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 1: breathing exercises, and radically changing your diet. 915 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 2: Oh my god, you could do that at home. This 916 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 2: isn't you don't you know? 917 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 1: And it's basically afford to. 918 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 2: Go on a retreat or do you. 919 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 1: Get percent Most of people do it at all. And 920 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: it's so it doesn't really cost you any extra, and 921 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 1: maybe it'll cost you less because you're not buying all 922 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: these extra grab and so days. And if you try it, 923 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 1: it's like the body just has this desire to be healthy, 924 00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 1: and illness is just your body's best attempt to deal 925 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 1: with a really shitty set of circumstances. Change of circumstances 926 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 1: meaning what you're exposed to, your diet, lifestyle, and then 927 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 1: you'll change, you know, because ninety three percent, it's been determined, 928 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:33,439 Speaker 1: of our health issues are not genetic. They're from our 929 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,720 Speaker 1: collective environment. What we call the exposed home, not our genome. 930 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,800 Speaker 1: Or exposed home is what it sounds like. It's everything 931 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 1: that we're exposed to. It's what we eat, it's movement, 932 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 1: it's sleep, it's stress, it's our gut microbio it's environmental toxins. 933 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: It's our thoughts. Our thoughts actually transform a biology. Literally, 934 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 1: it's the biggest pharmacy is between your years, and so 935 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 1: all those things you have control over, which is what's 936 00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: so exciting to me. It's about being empowered to actually 937 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,879 Speaker 1: make those change. And people just suffer so badly. I mean, 938 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 1: I think I told you maybe. Then I did a 939 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 1: program with a faith based wellness program with Rick Warren 940 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,400 Speaker 1: at this church where we got a quarter million pounds 941 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:14,319 Speaker 1: loss out for fifteen thousand people in a year by 942 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: doing a faith based wellness program, and the amount of 943 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 1: people that had radical changes in their health was just 944 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,839 Speaker 1: so remarkable. This one woman had been in and out 945 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: of psychiatric hospitals. She'd been on every psychiatric medication you 946 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:32,359 Speaker 1: could imagine from any deepressants, to anxiety medications, anti psychotic medications. 947 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 1: She was about to commit suicide. You know. She was 948 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 1: also overweight, and she did this dietary change. Essentially, I 949 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 1: did the faith based wellness program included the Tendee detox diet. 950 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 1: And she's like, I'm completely cured, Like I don't have 951 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 1: any depression, I'm off all my medications. I feel good. 952 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 1: How is that possible? And you know that's the other thing, Jay, 953 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 1: You know, there's so much mental illness. There's so much depression, anxiety, 954 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: my poldicgy. You know, I think more serious things like 955 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:07,840 Speaker 1: severe OCD or even schizophrenia. These things actually are physiological problems. 956 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 1: Are not always emotional problems. So sometimes they are like 957 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 1: you know, your bouse dyes are depressed. You know, I 958 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 1: get it, you know, But a lot of times, and 959 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:22,400 Speaker 1: for many people, there there's actually a physiological reason. You know, 960 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 1: we talk about the mind body effect, which how a 961 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,960 Speaker 1: mind effects the body, which is profound, but there's also 962 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 1: the body mind effect. So if you're magnesium deficient, you 963 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,799 Speaker 1: can be anxious, right, if you're vitamin D deficient or 964 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 1: a Mega three deficient, you can be depressed, or you 965 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: can have add if you don't have enough folid or 966 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 1: be twelve, you can get depressed. I mean, these are 967 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 1: things that you can fix. If you have heavy metals, 968 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 1: which I did, it can cause you to have depression 969 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 1: and insomnia and anxiety. I mean, I'm treating a little 970 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,359 Speaker 1: girl right now who's got severe OCD and it turned 971 00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 1: out she had a strep infection that turns into this 972 00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 1: autoimmune reaction against your brain that's causing her to have 973 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,600 Speaker 1: OCD behaviors like ticks and weird things that we think 974 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 1: is psychological. So I think, you know, I often call 975 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 1: myself the accidental psychiatrist because I was treating people for 976 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 1: all these physical things and then these psychiatric problems will 977 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,359 Speaker 1: get better. And I wrote a book about it called 978 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: the ultramind Solution, How to fix your broken brain by 979 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 1: fixing your body first, And you can just get that 980 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:21,440 Speaker 1: off the table, and then you know, if you have 981 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 1: other deeper trauma or things. Yeah, I think the revolution 982 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 1: now in metabolic psychiatry and nutritional psychiatry and then psychedelic 983 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,880 Speaker 1: medicine and psychiatry are I think going to change the 984 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 1: face of mental health care for the long term. 985 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 2: Absolutely. What are some of the mistakes you see people 986 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,880 Speaker 2: making and curing autumnin diseases. What are some of the mistakes? 987 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:41,959 Speaker 2: What are the things we get wrong? 988 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 1: Well, because they don't treat the cause. It is the 989 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,319 Speaker 1: biggest thing, you know. I had a patient when I 990 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: was a Cleveland clinic who was a business coach, who 991 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 1: was fifty years old, and she had a lot of problems. 992 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,080 Speaker 1: And I jokingly call myself a holistic doctor because I 993 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,239 Speaker 1: take care of people the whole list of problems, you know. 994 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: And she had everything, you know. She had irrable bow, 995 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 1: she had reflux, she had migraines, she was depressed, she 996 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:08,360 Speaker 1: had pre diabetes, and she had this horrible autoimmune disease 997 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 1: called soriatic arthritis, you know, the heartbreak of psoriasis, These 998 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:15,879 Speaker 1: horrible thick, scaly, red, itchy plaques on your skin, and 999 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: it also can attack your joints. And it was attacking 1000 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 1: your joints. She was on a drug and she was 1001 00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 1: seen by the top doctors and she was gone a 1002 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: drug that cost fifty thousand dollars and it wasn't really 1003 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 1: fixing her. And she was seeing the top specialist for 1004 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 1: neurology for her migraine, psychiatry for depression, gostrology for her. 1005 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 1: God had achronology for her pre diabetes, a rheumatologist for 1006 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: her arthritis and issues, a dermatology. I was like, she 1007 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:45,120 Speaker 1: had a doctor for every introver. And I said, gee, 1008 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 1: you know you're getting all these medications. You're not really better. 1009 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,839 Speaker 1: You're mitigating your symptoms a little bit. Maybe we think 1010 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 1: about treating the root cause. And so, because she had 1011 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:58,320 Speaker 1: so many digestive symptoms and she made a loss of antibiotics, 1012 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 1: she made on lots of stayeroids for her that really 1013 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,800 Speaker 1: messed up. They got too I said, you have reflex, 1014 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:09,440 Speaker 1: you have bloating after eating. You have all these gut issues. 1015 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 1: Why don't we treat your gut. So I basically gave 1016 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 1: her an antibotic to kill off all these bad bugs 1017 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 1: that were in her gut. And I gave her in 1018 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 1: any fungal because she had a lot of fungal overgrowth 1019 00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 1: from all the steroids in the antibotics. To kill off 1020 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 1: the bad bugs, I gave her some probotics. I put 1021 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,160 Speaker 1: her on the ten day ducks tie. Basically got rid 1022 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: of all the inflammatory foods, got her the sugar processed food. 1023 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 1: She comes back in six weeks and she's like, I'm 1024 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,239 Speaker 1: all better. I mean, what do you mean, Well, I 1025 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:36,920 Speaker 1: stopped all my medication. Well, I didn't tell you to 1026 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 1: do that. She's like, no, I just was feeling so good. 1027 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: I stopped everything out of migraines. I'm not depressed. My 1028 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 1: lost twenty pounds, My skin's cleared, my jointstone hurt, my 1029 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,640 Speaker 1: reflex is gone, my ir overbell is gone. And so 1030 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:50,840 Speaker 1: if you treat the route, which was her gut in 1031 00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 1: this case, and I just gave her, you know, I 1032 00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 1: just gave her the umlation diet, and I gave her 1033 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,320 Speaker 1: the antibotics and the anti fungals. I gave her probotics, 1034 00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 1: Vita Madie, some fish oil, not a lot. In six weeks, 1035 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: not only was she feeling better, but she like, save 1036 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 1: the healthier system, you know, tens of thousands of dollars. 1037 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:10,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's almost like it sounds like magic, and 1038 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,879 Speaker 2: you go, yeah, no, it's not, because we've just been 1039 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 2: trained to believe that this way makes sense. Yeah, well, 1040 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:23,479 Speaker 2: it's funny. We're more convinced that a manufactured pill will 1041 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 2: solve our body than the things that our ancestors have 1042 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,839 Speaker 2: lived off. That's right, for years and years and years. 1043 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 1: That's right. So if you don't know how to turn 1044 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 1: on the body's healing system, then yeah, you need medication. 1045 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 1: And what's so exciting, Timmy Jay, is like we're in 1046 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,320 Speaker 1: this revolution in medicine right now where we're finally understanding 1047 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: root causes and it's in the scientific literature, but it 1048 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 1: takes decades for that to get into clinical practice. I mean, 1049 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:53,480 Speaker 1: to change medical education, to change reimbursement, to change how 1050 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: doctors practice. Is just such a It's like it's like 1051 00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 1: we're all walking around thinking the earth is flat when 1052 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 1: it's really And so this paradigm shift is such a 1053 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:06,319 Speaker 1: profound change in how we think about disease that it's 1054 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,919 Speaker 1: going to revolutionize everything we do. And it's and it's 1055 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 1: only now be accessible to people through things like function 1056 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:15,359 Speaker 1: because we're able to through technology, be able to get 1057 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: the amazing amount of world scientific literatures. You know, AI 1058 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 1: can read it in like five seconds day and it 1059 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,399 Speaker 1: can synthesize it, and then it's your own personal health 1060 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 1: data set. It's not like you're you know, doctor's treating 1061 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 1: you based on a study it was on seventy kilogram 1062 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 1: white men from Kansas, which doesn't apply to an Indian guy, 1063 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 1: you know, or somebody who's in like you know, Vietnam, right, 1064 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:42,480 Speaker 1: And so basically we are treating to the masses where 1065 00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 1: we should be treating to the individual. We call this 1066 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 1: precision medicine, personalized medicine. But medicine should be personalized. It 1067 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:51,280 Speaker 1: should be predictive, it should be preventive, and it should 1068 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:53,880 Speaker 1: be proactive that you actually don't have to react like 1069 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 1: we do in medicine, but proactive. And that's really you know, 1070 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 1: my Lafe's work is not only you know, taking people 1071 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: with very series illnesses in reversing them, but actually getting 1072 00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 1: people earlier. I mean, Benjamin Franklin said it right, and 1073 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:07,960 Speaker 1: ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, And 1074 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 1: so I can give a pound of cure, but it's 1075 00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:11,880 Speaker 1: a lot harder than an ounce of prevention. 1076 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 2: What are you most excited about at the forefront of 1077 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 2: medicine and functional medicine at the moment? Is it ai? 1078 00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 1: Is it? Yeah? Well, you know I sent you like 1079 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:24,240 Speaker 1: there's thirty seven billion and trillion chemical reactions in the body. 1080 00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:27,760 Speaker 1: It's the body so complex, it's it's physics is complex. 1081 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,279 Speaker 1: Think about how complicated a rocket is. Like I can't 1082 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 1: even understand that. But that's a knowable thing, right Scientists 1083 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:37,960 Speaker 1: and physicists can figure it out and then send a 1084 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: guide to the moon or build a spaceship that goes 1085 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 1: to Mars like Elon Musk. But like, the body is 1086 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 1: so instantly complex, and we see it in this reductionist 1087 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: way where every different organ has a different specialist and 1088 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,880 Speaker 1: the body is all these different parts. But that's not 1089 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: how we're designed. Everything is in the ecosystem, everything connected. 1090 00:54:56,880 --> 00:55:00,319 Speaker 1: You know, we're one whole web like organism where where 1091 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 1: everything's interacting with everything else all the time. And so 1092 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:06,759 Speaker 1: that paradigm of thinking that way, and functional medicine isn't 1093 00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 1: a test, it's not a supplement, it's not a new specialty. 1094 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,320 Speaker 1: It's literally a meta framework for thinking about the nature 1095 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,840 Speaker 1: of health and disease based on root causes and based 1096 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 1: on the body's system, and based on asking the question 1097 00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:21,439 Speaker 1: why not what disease do you have? And what drug 1098 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:22,840 Speaker 1: do I get? But why do I have this? And 1099 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 1: how do I create health, not treat disease? And when 1100 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 1: I create health, disease goes away as a side effect. 1101 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 1: And so that scientific paradigm is now emerging, and before it, 1102 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:35,239 Speaker 1: you know, you know, it was frustrating for me doing 1103 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 1: this work for thirty years because you know, just it 1104 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 1: was hard to convince people like, look, the earth is 1105 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 1: around like no, no, no, it's flat. See right there, it's flat, 1106 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 1: and they go, there's that disease and it's real. Like yeah, 1107 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 1: you know, rheumatorized price is a thing, but it's not 1108 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 1: how we think about it, and we're thinking about it 1109 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: the wrong way. And so I'm so excited now because 1110 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:56,160 Speaker 1: of AI and the ability to synthesize massive data sets. 1111 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 1: I mean, you have one hundred thousand petabytes of data 1112 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:04,800 Speaker 1: in your mind microbiome. A petabyte is a million gigabytes. Okay, 1113 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:08,200 Speaker 1: your computer has four terabytes maybe right, which is a 1114 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:10,960 Speaker 1: thousand gigabytes or something. I mean, it's just such a 1115 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: massive amount of information that's just your microbiome. And so 1116 00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 1: your body is so complex, and we need technology and 1117 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,680 Speaker 1: AI to help us start to understand that and then 1118 00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:23,239 Speaker 1: apply it to you as an individual and then help 1119 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 1: create a roadmap for looking at where your weak points 1120 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 1: are and how do you correct those and then how 1121 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,399 Speaker 1: do you optimize And so that's what I'm so excited about, 1122 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 1: and that's that's why at sixty five, I'm like doing 1123 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 1: the startup. I mean I was. I was with one 1124 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,160 Speaker 1: of the one of the investors on a panel and 1125 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, She's like, somebody said, well, how do you 1126 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 1: how do you figure out what companies to invest in? 1127 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,080 Speaker 1: They go, well, we invest in the founders, and I'm like, well, 1128 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: have you ever had a founder that's been on medicare before? 1129 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,839 Speaker 1: You know? I'm like, what am I? I'm like, I mean, 1130 00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:56,400 Speaker 1: help to live to be one hundred and something. But 1131 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,120 Speaker 1: you know, I'm doing this because I don't want to 1132 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 1: see so many people suffering. They don't have to suffer. 1133 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 1: And I get these calls every day from friends and 1134 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,040 Speaker 1: would you help this one? They help that one. No 1135 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: one can help me, And I'm like, I'm only one guy. 1136 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: I could work twenty four hours a day for the 1137 00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: rest of my life and I wouldn't make a dent 1138 00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:16,240 Speaker 1: in the amount of suffering there is in the world. 1139 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 1: But imagine if we could put, you know, a thousand 1140 00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 1: or one hundred thousand doctors in your pocket that are 1141 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:25,560 Speaker 1: trained on the future paradigm of medicine and make it 1142 00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 1: accessible to you in real time on a day to 1143 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 1: day basis to guide you and coach you and support you. 1144 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: That's a functional health's aiming to do. And I'm so 1145 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,440 Speaker 1: excited about it because it's like, Wow, we couldn't do 1146 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 1: this before. We couldn't take this amazing complexity of human 1147 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:43,439 Speaker 1: biology and help a single doctor understand. It's just hard. 1148 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:45,640 Speaker 1: Like I see the pattern, so I can look at 1149 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 1: something quickly and I know in a few minutes like 1150 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 1: what to do. But it's the only re is I've 1151 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 1: seen tens of thousands of patients and millions and millions 1152 00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 1: of biomarkers that I can make those connections, and I'm 1153 00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 1: not that good compared to what technologies can able to do. 1154 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you wish doctors were taught today? 1155 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: Oh my god, don't get me started. My daughter just 1156 00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: graduate medical school. She's brilliant, and she's now going to 1157 00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 1: be an orthopedic surgeon, which I think is great because 1158 00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 1: you need that, like you know, if you break your 1159 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 1: head in. So that's a kind of medicine that I 1160 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 1: think is we're really good at, is acute care medicine. 1161 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 1: But what she didn't learn about was nutrition, which Okay, 1162 00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: we have an a chronic disease epidemic in this country. 1163 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:38,880 Speaker 1: It's caused primarily by food. It can be cured mostly 1164 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 1: by food, and yet doctors know nothing about food, right, 1165 00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 1: so nutrition, didn't learn about the microbiome, didn't learn about 1166 00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:50,280 Speaker 1: environmental toxins, didn't learn about how to create health, didn't 1167 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 1: learn about the bodies networks and systems. Didn't learn about mitochondria. No, 1168 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:57,400 Speaker 1: I mean, yes, she got like her first you know semester. 1169 00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 1: She learned about the crab cycle in biochemistry, but didn't 1170 00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 1: understand how to diagnose people with minochondril issues, which is 1171 00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 1: our energy is powerhouse, and how everything works in our body. 1172 00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:09,919 Speaker 1: So those are things that doctors don't learn anything about. 1173 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: Didn't learn about how to optimize your immune function. Didn't 1174 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:16,040 Speaker 1: learn about how to treat gut issues in the right 1175 00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: way by fixing a leak you got. So there's so 1176 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 1: many areas that are part of the framework of functional 1177 00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:23,480 Speaker 1: medicine that they don't learn anything about. 1178 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, so no, wonder when you go and talk about 1179 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 2: how you're feeling. Yeah, you're not getting the information that 1180 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:29,880 Speaker 2: you need. 1181 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you go out doctor, you know, 1182 00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:33,840 Speaker 1: I feel this and that the other thing, and they go, well, 1183 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:36,480 Speaker 1: you know, I did your exam, that's okay, your live 1184 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:38,840 Speaker 1: tests look okay because they do a very limited set 1185 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 1: and you know, you're fine, just go home and take prozac, 1186 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:46,160 Speaker 1: you know. But they're only one or two things that's true. 1187 00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: One either you're crazy and making it up, or your 1188 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,480 Speaker 1: doctor's missing something. And nine times out of ten they're 1189 00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:54,360 Speaker 1: missing something because they don't know how to think. They 1190 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,600 Speaker 1: don't know how to think about the human body except 1191 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:58,919 Speaker 1: in a very reductionist way. And it's just not how 1192 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:03,240 Speaker 1: things are. You know, we are a dynamic ecosystem and 1193 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,080 Speaker 1: everything is interact with everything else in real time and changing, 1194 01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:07,960 Speaker 1: and how do you play with that? How do you 1195 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 1: as a as a as a practitioner, or even as 1196 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 1: an individual learn how your body works? I mean most 1197 01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,000 Speaker 1: of us have no clue how our bodies work and 1198 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,960 Speaker 1: how to create a better functioning body. You know, we 1199 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 1: take better care of our animals than we do our health, right. 1200 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you wouldn't feed your dog a big mc 1201 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: fries and a coke, would you? 1202 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:28,000 Speaker 2: Definitely no? 1203 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 1: But we give that to our kids. Yeah. Right. 1204 01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:33,160 Speaker 2: As someone who grew up in London, England and have 1205 01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 2: the National Healthcare Service and then you move to the 1206 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:39,640 Speaker 2: United States and of course most of it's private and 1207 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:43,080 Speaker 2: there's not really any healthcare available as far as I know. 1208 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 2: You know, what do you think the US healthcare system 1209 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 2: needs to be focused on? 1210 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent. Well, I'm excited. I mean, I'm 1211 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 1: working right now with Medicare and with NIH on how 1212 01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:57,120 Speaker 1: do things need to change, because they're very open and 1213 01:00:57,160 --> 01:00:59,479 Speaker 1: they're very interested in changing the way we look at things. 1214 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:04,120 Speaker 1: And I think, you know, the even having access to 1215 01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,160 Speaker 1: good health care, which we don't in this country. I mean, 1216 01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 1: in the UK you have the NHS, the National Health 1217 01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,439 Speaker 1: Service is great, but you know, maybe the quality isn't 1218 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:15,400 Speaker 1: always as good. The reality is that most of your 1219 01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:18,320 Speaker 1: health is not happening in the doctor's office. Eighty to 1220 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:21,919 Speaker 1: ninety percent of it happens with things that you can 1221 01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 1: have control over. It happens in your kitchen, It happens 1222 01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 1: you know, where you play and eat and pray and work. 1223 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,760 Speaker 1: That's where health happens. I mean, my wife's now studying 1224 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,720 Speaker 1: at Columbia for her master's in public health, and she's 1225 01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:36,760 Speaker 1: just so excited telling me that how she's learning about 1226 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:39,640 Speaker 1: how they're talking about the real drivers of disease, and 1227 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 1: it's like eighty to ninety percent is not stuff that 1228 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 1: the doctor has control over it. It's the environment that 1229 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 1: you live in, and it's your choices every day, and 1230 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 1: so those things you don't really need health care for. 1231 01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,560 Speaker 1: And so I think if we can build a health 1232 01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 1: system that activates people around that, then you won't need 1233 01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:57,800 Speaker 1: the doctor most of the time. And then they're there 1234 01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:00,160 Speaker 1: for a cute care medicine. You know, if you I 1235 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 1: had back surgery, thank god, there's some guy who knows 1236 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 1: how to deal with a spine infection and can put 1237 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 1: in hardware and like, you know, kind of build my backup. Great, 1238 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:12,920 Speaker 1: thank god. But you know, but if I if I 1239 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 1: said to him, like what do I do to recover 1240 01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 1: and become stronger than I was before, He's like, I 1241 01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:21,200 Speaker 1: don't know, just do physical therapy or eat better or 1242 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:22,960 Speaker 1: very healthy. 1243 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 2: How do we hold ultra processed food manufacturers more accountable 1244 01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:35,880 Speaker 2: for getting away with putting excess sugars and multifiers, unidentifiable 1245 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 2: objects into our food. 1246 01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, good question. I mean, I think, you know, 1247 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 1: we've had a pretty lax system of regulation this country, 1248 01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:45,960 Speaker 1: and you know, we have I think ten thousand chemicals 1249 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:47,520 Speaker 1: that are allowed in our food here in Europe is 1250 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:50,480 Speaker 1: about four hundred chemicals and and they go through a 1251 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 1: very different standard of regulation in terms of older processed food, 1252 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 1: and they they are very restrict restrictive around GMO and 1253 01:02:57,120 --> 01:03:00,480 Speaker 1: around herbicides and lots of things that we don't do here. 1254 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:04,280 Speaker 1: And I think, you know, this's changing. There's this whole 1255 01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,760 Speaker 1: Moha movement. People are waking up. And I was with 1256 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:09,120 Speaker 1: my friend a couple of days ago, Jason Karp, who 1257 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:12,920 Speaker 1: was really founded a Huge Chocolate of people like Huge Chocolate, 1258 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 1: and he was very vociferous writing a letter as a 1259 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 1: shareholder of Kellogg's to the company saying, you have fruit 1260 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 1: loops that you make in America that have all these 1261 01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 1: dyes and chemicals that are known to cause hyperactivity or 1262 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 1: immune issues or other problems and kids, and in Europe 1263 01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:34,440 Speaker 1: they don't allow it. And you make the same fruit 1264 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 1: loops but with natural colorings like from blueberries or whatever. 1265 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 1: And basically they were ignoring him. And then my friend 1266 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,840 Speaker 1: Vonnie Harry, they all went to Battle Creek, Michigan, and 1267 01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: they had a protest in the fall in October of 1268 01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:52,160 Speaker 1: twenty four and finally this week Kellogg's agreed they're gonna 1269 01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:54,760 Speaker 1: actually take all that crap out. 1270 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:55,240 Speaker 2: Wow. 1271 01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:59,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know, the FDA has now said they're 1272 01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:03,920 Speaker 1: working with food companies to either voluntarily or mandatorily have 1273 01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 1: them remove food added in colors and dies. I mean, 1274 01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:10,000 Speaker 1: I have been nonprofit called the Food Fix Campaign. I 1275 01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 1: wrote a book called Food Fix and a new one's 1276 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 1: coming out called Food Fix Uncensored next February, and it 1277 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,440 Speaker 1: basically talks about how this problem needs to get fixed 1278 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,440 Speaker 1: from field of the fork and what regulations seem to happen. 1279 01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:24,080 Speaker 1: But I've been working with my nonprofit for the last 1280 01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,520 Speaker 1: five years and it's been amazing. And the woman who 1281 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,000 Speaker 1: was my key person, who's my seeing eye dog in Washington, 1282 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 1: is now the governor wife of West Virginia. She's the 1283 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,600 Speaker 1: first Lady West Virginia, and that was the first state 1284 01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:40,600 Speaker 1: because of her to ban food dies. And then they 1285 01:04:40,680 --> 01:04:45,240 Speaker 1: also got snap waivers, which means they are going to 1286 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:48,960 Speaker 1: limit what you can purchase with food stamps, to not 1287 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:51,439 Speaker 1: be allowed to buy soda or certain kinds of junk food. 1288 01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: And this is happening across the country. There's like over 1289 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:58,959 Speaker 1: thirty plus states where now there's uprisings. And I'm living 1290 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 1: in Texas right now, and this woman, Senator cold Course 1291 01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:07,320 Speaker 1: is the head of the Healthy Human Services Committee. She 1292 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,080 Speaker 1: listened to my podcast You're a huge fan, and she 1293 01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:13,120 Speaker 1: got so excited about this that she interested to bill 1294 01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 1: called SB twenty five in Texas that limited the crap 1295 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 1: and the food, that limited crap in schools, that mandates 1296 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:24,959 Speaker 1: nutrition education for doctors, that starts a chronic nutrition Advisory group. 1297 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:27,440 Speaker 1: And it passed the Senate, it passed the House there 1298 01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:29,800 Speaker 1: and it got signed by the governor into law. And 1299 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:33,440 Speaker 1: I testified at the at the hearing. And so there's 1300 01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:36,200 Speaker 1: this movement happening now which I never thought would happen 1301 01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:38,840 Speaker 1: in my lifetime, that there's a shift, and I think 1302 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:40,760 Speaker 1: the food companies want to do the right thing, but 1303 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:44,120 Speaker 1: they're they're all in competition with each other, so no 1304 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:47,440 Speaker 1: one company can act independently because their competitors will eat 1305 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:51,640 Speaker 1: their lunch so literally, and so they they now that 1306 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 1: this is happening at a nationwide level. There they're fighting and 1307 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,280 Speaker 1: they're kicking and screaming, but it's going to happen. And 1308 01:05:57,280 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 1: the new dietary guidlines are going to come out, which 1309 01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:02,280 Speaker 1: I've helped advise on, and that is really exciting to 1310 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,800 Speaker 1: me to actually have something out there that's going to 1311 01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 1: help guide people and what to eat. Food labeling is 1312 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:11,000 Speaker 1: changing and working with the FD on food labeling, hopefully 1313 01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,600 Speaker 1: we can make progress on food marketing, you know. 1314 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 2: Like that's a big one, you know, like like. 1315 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 1: In Europe, if I stuff has some die in it 1316 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 1: or that's going to cause problem with kids, they'll say, 1317 01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 1: you know, this is bad for your kid, and if 1318 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 1: you eat, if your kid eats it, they'll get add 1319 01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:28,560 Speaker 1: and whatever, higher activity. And so the food companies don't 1320 01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:32,200 Speaker 1: want that, so they change their formulations. So food marketing 1321 01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 1: is a big, big driver of behavior, and these companies know, 1322 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:39,040 Speaker 1: and they spend thirteen billion dollars marketing on food every year. Uh. 1323 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 1: And there's a lot of ways to fix that. You know. 1324 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 1: The First Amendment might prohibit us from limiting the advertising, 1325 01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 1: but they could have warnings like they do in drugs. 1326 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,920 Speaker 1: They could you know, prevent them from being having a 1327 01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 1: tax deduction for spending all that money on food marketing. 1328 01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:55,440 Speaker 1: And there's a lot of waste to put pressure changing. 1329 01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:58,080 Speaker 1: Medical school education also important because think doctor is more 1330 01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:00,880 Speaker 1: engaged in this. So it's it's a it's a multi 1331 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 1: headed hydro that needss multiple solutions across a lot of 1332 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:08,720 Speaker 1: government policies and also people making different choices at the 1333 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 1: checkout count you can vote with your fork. 1334 01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 2: Mark, I am so grateful that you survived.
