Hello, beautiful. I've

0:04

been getting lots of, um, questions

0:06

in my DMs lately about,

0:10

um, Dr. Holland. Can I possibly

0:12

bring my health online during

0:15

the holiday season? You know, can I start

0:17

to focus on my vitality? Can

0:19

I start somewhere, you know, or do I

0:21

really need to wait until January or February

0:24

once the, you know, debauchery

0:26

is over, once the gluttony

0:28

is over? Now, The

0:31

answer is yes and yes.

0:34

And absolutely yes, you can.

0:37

You can always make micro changes

0:39

to improve and focus on

0:42

your vitality, right? There

0:44

is never a good time to do it.

0:46

There is never a good time to do it. But

0:48

I'm here to tell you that what I teach

0:50

is not a diet. So as

0:52

a recovering food addict or a recovered

0:54

food addict, I think

0:57

once a food addict, I think once an addict of any kind,

0:59

I think we can honestly say. That we

1:01

know how to self medicate with food,

1:04

um, or booze, you know,

1:06

and you know, no judgment, no judgment

1:08

at all towards myself, towards

1:11

anyone else, no shame, you

1:13

know, human beings are just trying to most of the time

1:16

move away from pain and towards pleasure.

1:19

And how can you blame somebody for that? Right.

1:23

So in terms of your vitality

1:25

and in terms of bringing your vitality online

1:27

and focusing on your health. You

1:29

really do need to learn to

1:32

establish a roadmap that

1:34

focuses on and supports

1:36

your individualized biochemistry. So

1:39

there is no one diet that,

1:42

no, there's no one size fits all, we know that by

1:44

now. If anybody is still spruiking that,

1:47

please. You know, run, don't

1:49

walk. Um, there's no one size

1:51

fits all. So you really need to learn,

1:54

um, to individualize what works

1:56

for you. You know, for example, some

1:58

people thrive on chickpeas, whereas

2:00

chickpeas are not good for me at all. You

2:02

know, they make me bloat, and they make me tired, and,

2:05

you know, gluten's not great for me either, and funnily

2:07

enough, green apples aren't either. And then there's some people

2:09

that can absolutely handle green apples no problem

2:11

whatsoever. So, You know,

2:13

if you're confused about food, if you

2:15

don't know what to eat, you need to start

2:17

to learn to establish this

2:19

beautiful individualized precision

2:21

medicine roadmap based on your

2:24

individualized body type, based on your

2:26

hormonal picture, based on your lifestyle,

2:29

based on your output, based on what

2:31

you want from yourself, you know, so if you're

2:33

an office worker and you're sitting down

2:36

eight hours a day, your food needs

2:38

to look very different to somebody who is an elite

2:40

athlete. Um, or a,

2:42

you know, uh, Pilates instructor

2:44

who's, you know, in, in Pilates

2:46

classes all day long. Um, she

2:48

needs way more protein muscle synthesis.

2:51

Well, in actual fact, you could debate that

2:53

fact too because, you know, if you're an office worker, you

2:56

really do need to be focusing on your protein muscle

2:58

synthesis. You know, you need to be building protein.

3:01

In order to be as vital as you possibly can be.

3:04

So I'm here to tell you that it takes a while

3:06

to establish your personalized road

3:08

map. And there's never a good time

3:11

to start. There's always going to be,

3:13

in terms of the fact that, you know, Oh, I've got

3:15

a wedding coming up, or I've got a birthday coming up,

3:17

or it's Christmas, or it's Easter.

3:19

You can absolutely navigate normal life

3:21

in an 80 20

3:23

way. And bring your vitality

3:26

and your health online. Now

3:29

that I have established my personalized,

3:31

individualized roadmap, I'm no

3:33

longer obese, I no longer

3:35

am addicted to food like substances, I

3:38

can absolutely name them out and I can tell

3:40

you my trouble foods. And

3:42

I'll get onto trouble foods and trouble places in

3:44

a moment, as well as trouble people.

3:46

You know, people that are addicted to food have

3:48

issues with people, places, and food groups.

3:51

But I'll get into that in a moment. So,

3:54

you can absolutely bring it online. So, I'll give you,

3:56

I'll give you a perfect example. So,

3:59

inside of my program, I have this incredible

4:01

power cuppa that I use as a tool.

4:04

Every single morning I have a coffee, but

4:06

I would never have a coffee on its own. It

4:09

doesn't suit my biochemistry. It

4:11

doesn't suit my cortisol levels. I

4:13

come from a group of women, and we know how

4:15

to produce the stress hormone, baby. We

4:17

absolutely do. The majority

4:20

of us, and, you know, in my family

4:22

lineage, Women have been

4:24

abused and they've been beaten and

4:26

we come from a traumatic circumstances. So

4:28

we absolutely know how to produce

4:30

stress hormone. So first

4:32

thing in the morning, um, my cortisol

4:34

awakening response comes up and I really want

4:37

to support my adrenals

4:39

and nourish them. So I start my

4:41

day with a coffee, but it's always got fat

4:43

and fiber in it. And sometimes it

4:45

has protein in it too. Now,

4:47

I know if you've never ever added

4:49

fat or fiber or protein to your coffee,

4:52

it may sound completely ridiculous

4:54

and it may sound like, what? Don't touch my coffee.

4:57

I don't want my coffee to change. I

4:59

can tell you that I have researched

5:01

this so beautifully and so well.

5:04

I have found incredible fiber and incredible

5:06

fat and absolutely incredible

5:08

protein that mixes into

5:11

my coffee that makes it taste absolutely

5:13

delicious. Even if you're somebody that

5:15

wants to give away dairy because

5:18

it's spiking insulin or causing inflammation

5:20

in your system, particularly if you're a woman

5:22

with PCOS or endometriosis, you

5:24

really should be looking at cutting down your dairy

5:26

or moving to A2. You can

5:28

absolutely have a gorgeous, thick,

5:30

fluffy, creamy coffee without

5:33

it deleteriously impacting your hormones.

5:36

So if you start your day with a power cuppa,

5:38

you are honestly not hungry. You're satiated

5:41

and the message that you're sending to your brain

5:44

is that you need to be in a fat burn

5:46

as opposed to a fat store state.

5:48

So your body starts to access ketones.

5:51

Once you are accessing ketones, you

5:54

are on fire. Your energy levels are incredible.

5:56

And if you have any additional adiposity to

5:59

lose or any belly fat that

6:01

starts to just melt away and disappear

6:03

from around the middle and the tuck shop arms

6:06

and the back and the thighs. And

6:08

then if you have a gorgeous protein rich

6:10

meal, you know, something like the rainbow

6:12

eating three cups of green leafy vegetables,

6:15

one cup of color and two cups of high quality

6:17

and 200 grams of high quality protein,

6:19

or. One gram of net protein

6:22

per kilogram of body weight

6:24

or ideal body weight, depending on

6:26

your circumstances and the outcome you're trying to

6:28

achieve. If you need to go out

6:30

for a Christmas lunch or Christmas dinner,

6:33

there's so many tips and tricks that we

6:35

can put into place to ensure

6:37

that that one meal or that one cocktail

6:40

is not going to. Railroad

6:42

your efforts or the outcomes that you're trying

6:44

to achieve. It is absolutely

6:46

possible to have a beautiful, you

6:49

know, and I don't even like using the word, but

6:51

just to convey, um, the

6:53

information, you know, it's absolutely possible

6:55

to have a beautiful cheat meal and

6:57

eat according to the power of your plate.

7:00

Starting every single meal with a beautiful salad,

7:03

you know, or eating your veggies first. Then

7:06

eating your gorgeous protein and your fat and

7:08

having your carbohydrates or your chippies last.

7:11

So, for example, if you go out and you have a steak,

7:13

let's say, right? Start with a salad.

7:15

Then eat the steak and the fat and then have

7:18

your chips last because what that does

7:20

is it slows down the absorption

7:22

of the sugars in your system. It doesn't

7:24

spike your blood glucose and it doesn't spike

7:26

your insulin. It doesn't get you into an insulin

7:28

resistant state, which is a fat store

7:31

as opposed to a fat burn state. Your

7:34

diet should not have a special name.

7:37

You know, you should not have a special fancy

7:39

name for your diet. I do not

7:41

teach and do not advocate for any particular

7:44

diet, right? I use

7:46

a blend of the best

7:48

quality research for perimenopausal

7:50

women. The research is coming in. talking

7:53

about the Mediterranean and the longevity diets.

7:55

It has the most powerful research with regards

7:57

to longevity and perimenopausal

8:00

hormones. There's no special

8:02

named diet that you should be, that you

8:04

should be on. You should be on a beautiful

8:07

roadmap and you should make peace

8:09

with the foods that treat you

8:11

well and support your personal

8:13

individualized biochemistry. And

8:15

you should learn how to eat your

8:18

three meals a day or your two meals a day.

8:20

But especially over the age of 35,

8:23

implementing some time restricted eating

8:25

and some intermittent fasting so

8:28

that your gastrointestinal tract can heal,

8:30

seal, and repair itself. If

8:32

we are eating all the time, we

8:35

are consistently spiking blood glucose,

8:37

we are consistently increasing inflammation,

8:40

and it doesn't do us any good. It doesn't do our

8:42

brains any good, it doesn't do our bodies any

8:44

good, it doesn't do our minds any good. Your

8:47

gastrointestinal tract, your brain, your

8:49

body. It needs time to repair.

8:52

It needs a significant amount of time where it

8:54

is not focused on metabolizing,

8:56

transforming, and transporting your food.

8:59

So, firstly, we need

9:01

to make peace with food. We

9:03

need to make sure that we have a nutrient dense,

9:06

rich blood supply so that we

9:08

are getting in all of the macro

9:10

and the micro nutrients that we need on an

9:12

individualized precision basis,

9:14

right? You need to know which foods

9:17

nurture and nourish you and make you

9:19

feel like a million bucks. And

9:21

then you also need to know the foods

9:23

that don't necessarily do that. And I like to call

9:25

them sometimes foods like let's not

9:27

vilify food. We're so lucky

9:30

in these first world countries where we

9:32

have. Ample food. The

9:34

problem is, is that we're overnourished, really,

9:37

and often by the wrong things. And

9:40

essentially to take care of yourself in

9:42

a beautiful way, you really need to ignore

9:45

mass marketing, you know, have a, have,

9:47

have a break, have a KitKat, you know, and

9:49

if you drink Coca Cola, you're going to be happy and have

9:51

lots of friends, you know, and lots

9:54

of, lots of big pharma and lots of big

9:56

food encourage us to eat food like substances,

9:59

your body, your biochemistry, your brain

10:01

and your hormones and your neurotransmitters are

10:04

not going to come online if you're feeding

10:06

yourself. Or your children for that matter.

10:09

Food like substances. If

10:11

you're eating out of a box or out of a packet,

10:13

please, I implore you to eat nature's

10:15

food. If you cannot recognize

10:17

what the ingredient is, or what it

10:19

does, or if there's a number involved, please

10:22

don't eat it. Eat things

10:24

that you can recognize, because if you can recognize

10:26

them, you can pronounce them, you know what

10:28

they are, your biochemistry can

10:30

too, so if you start your day,

10:33

you know, with a power cuppa, even if you don't

10:35

start a power, if you don't start your day with a power cuppa,

10:37

and you don't use that as your tool, if you start

10:39

your day with a beautiful amount of protein,

10:41

fat, and fiber, according to your

10:43

individualized biochemistry and

10:45

you follow that process and that program

10:47

throughout the day, you've made peace

10:50

with the foods that nourish and nurture your body.

10:52

You know exactly how to eat exactly

10:55

when to eat and exactly what to eat

10:57

to make sure that your energy levels come online

11:00

so that you're supporting your mitochondria, you're

11:02

supporting your microbiome and

11:04

you're supporting your hormones and your health. You

11:07

do not need. to worry about

11:09

Christmas. You do not need to worry about

11:11

Easter. You can absolutely

11:13

have a treat. You can absolutely have sometimes

11:16

foods in an 80 20 ratio.

11:18

As long as 80 percent of the time you're giving

11:20

your body a break, implementing

11:23

intermittent fasting and power cuppers over

11:25

the holiday periods are unbelievably

11:28

powerful to maintain your

11:30

weight or still significantly

11:32

shift that weight if needs be. Without

11:35

having to restrict. So please,

11:37

if somebody is trying to put you on a diet... You

11:40

know, if it's Optifast

11:42

or Paleo or Keto or,

11:44

you know, whatever it is, the, the pharmacy

11:47

lemon diet, this, that, or the other. One

11:49

of the main reasons for weight loss

11:51

resistance or the yo yo dieting

11:54

is because women put themselves through

11:56

these periods of restriction

11:59

that they cannot maintain.

12:01

You aren't, if you are restricting and you

12:03

are hungry, you're not eating properly.

12:06

Right? And if you're not nourishing

12:08

and nurturing your body and your microbiome

12:10

and your hormones, you're not going to be functioning

12:13

optimally. And then if

12:15

your gastrointestinal tract is dysbiotic

12:17

or it's full of toxins and it needs a bit of a

12:20

clean out, you've got to start there. So

12:22

if you want weight loss that

12:25

is sustainable, And

12:27

if you are experiencing weight loss resistance,

12:29

you have to start in the gastrointestinal tract.

12:32

You need to heal, seal, and repair your gastrointestinal

12:35

tract. You need to bring your metabolism

12:37

back online. And then you need

12:39

to feed your individualized biochemistry

12:42

body and brain the foods that

12:44

it needs. Your individualized

12:46

biochemistry body and brain. Appropriate

12:49

for your age, appropriate for your activity

12:51

levels, appropriate for your life and your

12:53

lifestyle. And you don't have to eat.

12:56

A diet that is different to,

12:59

or foods that are different to the foods that your family

13:01

are eating. I cook according

13:03

to my individualized food protocol.

13:06

I have salads on the table every night. I

13:08

have vegetables on the table every night. I

13:10

have high quality protein on the table

13:12

every night. And yes, because I'm

13:14

a perimenopausal woman, and I do have

13:17

a, um, an inclination towards

13:20

thyropause, andropause, insulin

13:22

resistance, and high blood glucose

13:24

levels. I do not take in as

13:26

much processed carbohydrates as

13:28

I once could, right, because

13:31

it doesn't support my body. But

13:33

it doesn't mean I don't put the pasta and the rice

13:35

on the table for my 17 year old teenage

13:37

boy who absolutely needs that stuff.

13:40

You know, gosh, their metabolisms are going

13:42

a hundred thousand miles a minute. What

13:45

I would do to have the metabolism of a 17

13:47

year old boy, unbelievable. Unbelievable.

13:50

So it's not like you have to cook some special

13:52

food or, you know, have a special

13:55

food protocol that, you know, so you're cooking

13:57

separate meals for the family. No. And

13:59

I'm here to tell you that so many of the women in my clinic

14:02

have actually reported that their kids

14:04

moods and their skins, particularly

14:06

the teenagers, My son has unbelievable

14:09

skin. He has never had an issue with acne.

14:11

And um, yeah, he gets enough, he

14:13

gets enough macro micro nutrients. He

14:16

gets all of these greens, he gets all of these

14:18

reds, he gets the rainbow

14:20

and high quality protein as well as the carbohydrates

14:23

he needs. And I cook and

14:25

support my body according to my individualized

14:27

food protocol. And I'm here to tell you that

14:29

if you're hungry, angry, lonely,

14:32

tired, exhausted, other,

14:35

and you're using food as medicine,

14:39

You really need to stop and pause

14:41

and nurture yourself. And the question that

14:43

you need to ask too is What

14:45

is eating me? If

14:47

you are using food as medicine, if

14:49

you are using food to numb, there's

14:52

an emotion that needs to be

14:54

addressed. And if you're exhausted, if you're going

14:56

for the choccy, or if you're going for the fifth

14:58

cup of coffee that day, and you're absolutely

15:01

smashed, perhaps it's time to support

15:03

your microbiome. Perhaps it's time to

15:05

support your mitochondria. You know, perimenopausal

15:08

women after the age of 35, We

15:11

have a significant drop in co-enzyme

15:13

Q 10 or ubiquinol, which

15:15

is the gold standard fuel for our mitochondria.

15:17

No wonder we're exhausted. We've got thyroid

15:20

pores, we've got an, we've

15:22

got, uh, adrenal pores, and

15:24

we're having this incredible transition, right?

15:26

So it can be an extremely

15:29

challenging time because it is a time

15:31

of transition, but it is also a

15:33

beautiful invitation. It

15:35

is an invitation to take care of yourself like you

15:37

never have before. Please

15:39

establish. Strong personal

15:41

boundaries and the highest levels of self

15:44

care that you have ever, ever

15:46

had. You need to ensure

15:48

that you are not heading

15:50

towards insulin resistance, prediabetes

15:53

type 2, subclinical

15:56

hypothyroidism, you know, What is it

15:58

called? Metabolic syndrome or syndrome

16:00

X, which is where we are stuck

16:02

in a fat store as opposed to a fat

16:04

burn state. We have to get out

16:06

of that state so that we can access

16:08

our energy from our food and we can

16:11

fuel our bodies and our brains in order

16:13

to feel vital, in order to

16:15

feel cool, calm, collected.

16:18

Not be snappy, not have aggro,

16:20

not have rage so that we can

16:22

nourish our adrenals, nourish our thyroids,

16:25

nourish our guts, nourish our brains and

16:27

nourish our bodies. If you

16:29

need to know how, if you don't know where to start,

16:32

I'm here to tell you that you absolutely can

16:34

do it in November, December, January,

16:36

February, March, April, May, June, July,

16:39

August, September, October. It doesn't

16:41

matter what month you start. It is

16:43

about. bringing that body

16:46

literacy online. It's about understanding

16:48

your body, understanding your individualized

16:50

needs. It is about understanding

16:53

how to implement your

16:56

personalized food protocol so

16:58

that you can wake up in the morning, jump

17:01

out of bed. Get to that exercise

17:03

class at 5 a. m. You know, be

17:05

at the desk at 8. Smash out

17:07

the work that, you know, drives you,

17:09

lights you up, helps you change that

17:11

world, helps you contribute. You

17:13

know, when the kids throw things at you, you've got that

17:16

beautiful adaptogenic capacity. You're

17:18

able to adapt to stress. You

17:20

know, when stress comes at you, you've got a high

17:22

adaptogenic capacity. So, you

17:25

know, it doesn't derail you or, you

17:27

know, Set

17:29

you off course for the entire day. You

17:31

just adapt to it quickly. You adjust,

17:33

you make the change that's needed and you get on

17:35

with it and you are actually

17:37

comfortable in your own skin and

17:39

you like your own company and you like

17:42

yourself and you love and

17:44

nurture. And like the woman that

17:46

you see in the mirror, it is absolutely

17:49

possible, but it is absolutely

17:51

imperative to take very,

17:53

very, very good care of yourself. If

17:56

you're eating food like substances to get

17:58

through, if you're smashing the chocolate

18:00

at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, if

18:02

you're waking between, You know, one

18:04

and three a. m. You've got

18:06

a blood sugar issue. We need to

18:08

balance your blood sugar. We need to keep that

18:10

stable. Once we've balanced the blood sugar,

18:13

you have a stability in your mood, in

18:15

your mind, in your brain. When

18:17

you're sleeping through the night, you can have the

18:19

most incredible day. And

18:22

when you have the most incredible day, you contribute

18:24

in a way that you're proud of. Right? You

18:27

don't have to drag yourself around,

18:29

feeling smashed, not be able to

18:31

get through the day, feeling overwhelmed.

18:34

It doesn't need to be that way. Your body

18:36

is a self healing mechanism, and the beauty

18:38

about that is it is not broken.

18:41

As a recovered food addict, I can tell you that I

18:43

was obese, I had cystic acne, I

18:45

was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome,

18:48

chronic fatigue syndrome, Hashimoto's

18:51

thyroiditis, which is an autoimmune condition. I

18:53

was told that unless I went on the

18:55

oral contraceptive pill and

18:57

took extremely dangerous weight load

18:59

drugs that don't work, by the way, The

19:02

research has now shown that I had

19:04

high cholesterol because my thyroid wasn't online.

19:07

If you have high cholesterol and low ferritin

19:09

levels, your thyroid is not optimized.

19:12

If you have high cholesterol and you do not understand

19:14

why, because you're not eating bad fat,

19:16

you're not smashing the cheese and your

19:18

cholesterol is just high, it could potentially

19:21

be neuroprotective. It could actually

19:23

be good for you unless your

19:25

LDL is higher than your HDL.

19:28

We need to reverse that ratio for you with

19:30

good fats. You need to be cooking

19:32

your food in butter

19:34

or ghee or olive oil or

19:37

MCT oil to bring your body

19:39

back online. PUFAs,

19:42

polyunsaturated fats, are one of the worst toxins

19:44

that you could put into your body because what happens

19:46

with bad fats is that they line

19:49

every single cell in your body.

19:51

Every single cell in your body has a phospholipid

19:53

bilayer. It's a fat

19:55

water layer and it is in charge of

19:57

the communication, the cellular communication

19:59

within your body. If they are surrounded

20:02

by bad fats, you are in trouble and you

20:04

are inflamed. Inflammation

20:06

is an absolute killer. If

20:10

you're puffy, if you're exhausted,

20:12

if your rings don't fit you anymore, if

20:15

you have cankles, if your socks leave

20:17

lines on your legs. If

20:19

you're bloated, if you have,

20:22

you know, diarrhea one day and constipation

20:24

the next, we need to bring

20:26

your gastrointestinal tract and your microbiome

20:29

back online so that your kidneys

20:31

and your detoxification system, your

20:33

liver, your large intestine and your skin

20:36

can get rid of all of the endogenous

20:38

toxins in your body first. So

20:40

don't forget that your body produces

20:42

its own amount of toxicity every day.

20:45

It cleans up your brain, it cleans

20:47

up every single cell in your body, right? So

20:49

there's a certain amount of detoxification

20:52

that happens within your body every single

20:54

day before you put a toxin

20:56

in your mouth, right? But

20:59

remember, if you've got that additional belly

21:01

fat or that additional adiposity

21:04

underneath the arm or on

21:06

the thighs and the back, that

21:08

could potentially be an estrogen excess picture.

21:11

Because you're putting toxins in your

21:13

mouth and your body has to detoxify them

21:15

first. Now, there is no

21:17

shame associated with this. I'm just telling

21:19

you this so that you know how to get rid of it. You

21:22

need to fix your microbiome first

21:24

so that your estrobilone, which

21:26

is this gorgeous special part of your microbiome,

21:29

can actually detoxify the estrogen out of

21:31

your body so that you don't have this excess estrogen

21:34

presentation. And don't forget, like,

21:36

not only... this

21:38

is horrible saying, but it actually clinically works.

21:40

You know, we're fat 40 and frustrated,

21:43

right? And a lot of that is an estrogen

21:45

excess presentation because

21:48

estrogen is also really moody and she's

21:50

really snappy. And

21:53

if you can't identify

21:55

with the adiposity around the middle,

21:57

if you just have like.

22:00

You know, it's not even, it's

22:02

not even kilograms, you know, it's, it's not

22:04

even quantifiable. You can't sort of say,

22:07

Oh, I've got like, you know, definitely 10 to 20

22:09

kilos to lose. You've just got this additional

22:12

layer of fluff, right? That

22:14

you just can't get rid of just this additional

22:16

kind of padding or sort of

22:18

fluffy cloud like adiposity on

22:20

your body. That is an indicator that

22:22

we really need to bring your microbiome online.

22:25

Heal, seal and repair your gut,

22:27

get your estrogen detoxifying appropriately,

22:30

and get you out of a insulin

22:32

resistant state, and get you into

22:34

a fat burn and out of a fat store state.

22:38

Women, food, and hormones are extremely

22:41

complicated. So many

22:43

of the incredible doctors in this space, Dr. Laura

22:45

Brydon, Dr. Sarah Godfrey, um,

22:48

you know, Dr. Mark Hyman, um,

22:51

Professor Geraldine Pryor, Dr. Lisa

22:53

Mascone, you know, please read all

22:55

of their books, the Hormone Repair Manual,

22:58

um, you know. Uh, Dr.

23:00

Sarah Godfrey has got loads of books out,

23:02

um, Dr. Laura Bryden's got the hormone

23:04

repair manual, Dr. Lisa Mascone's got the

23:07

XX brain or the menopause brain. I've

23:09

read them all, they're incredible. These

23:11

women know what they're talking about, they are so

23:13

well researched. They talk about the

23:15

fact that we have to bring our

23:17

hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenal

23:19

axis online. We

23:21

need to support our thyroid and our gut

23:24

and our adrenals in perimenopause in

23:26

order to be able to thrive. Behind

23:29

the scenes when I'm treating my patients in my clinic,

23:31

I'm actually preventing Alzheimer's and dementia.

23:34

I do not want the women in my clinic to

23:36

have type 3 diabetes. If

23:38

you have pre diabetes type

23:40

2, a high HbA1c, high

23:44

insulin, You are

23:46

setting yourself up for type

23:48

3 diabetes, which is Alzheimer's

23:50

and dementia, and this is preventable. If

23:53

you have high cholesterol and your thyroid

23:55

is not optimized, if you have

23:57

thick, sticky red blood cells and lots of

23:59

inflammation, you are setting yourself

24:01

up for a cardiovascular event, you're

24:03

setting yourself up for a stroke, you're setting yourself

24:06

up for a heart attack. The

24:08

biggest killer for women over

24:10

the age of 40 is in fact a cardiovascular

24:13

disease event or a heart attack. We

24:15

still think that it's breast cancer, but it isn't.

24:18

The majority of women actually die of heart disease.

24:20

We need to make sure that we have

24:22

a beautiful, beautiful blood supply

24:25

that is not sticky. We need to make

24:28

sure that our, we don't have blood platelet aggregation

24:31

excessively. If you've got clotting

24:33

in your menstrual blood, this is an indicator

24:36

that your blood is not as

24:38

smooth and thin as

24:40

it needs to be. Olive

24:42

oil brings your, olive oil is

24:44

beautiful for blood thinning, so are amigas.

24:47

These are also incredible for brain

24:50

health and bone health. We need

24:52

to prevent cancers. We absolutely

24:54

can prevent certain oestrogenic type

24:56

cancers by having a look at how you

24:58

process your oestrogen. It is

25:00

absolutely imperative to know all of the

25:03

above. So please, if you

25:05

are asking yourself whether you needed to wait until

25:08

January or February to start bringing
