and not want to be taken lightly.
0:04
Friends taking things like me you've never
0:06
been would have used without. That's why
0:08
we've created a happy with your program.

Was hard to recycle. pacifism, valuable resources
0:12
for Clinton building material. Recently
0:15
too off owns after him that. Often
0:18
drop it in with your
0:21
regular. Recycling isn't that easy.
0:23
It's time to rethink. Recently
0:25
introduced to human resources, Available
0:29
on. Sunday
0:31
which is no the best way for you is
0:33
a rate based on you with all star one
0:35
based on the driver who treats the highway like
0:37
a race track and the show the like a
0:40
passing lane. Why theory based
0:42
on anyone else get one based on you with Dr

was from honestly not available in Alaska. California started to
0:46
terms conditions. Rates are determined by several factors which vary
0:48
by state. In some states participation in drive was the

also earned cash. An insurance company in Philly sort of
0:59
pick Illinois. Coming. Up on today show.
1:02
This. Book was written from the viewpoint
1:04
of one of the victims of the
1:07
for state and fake science foisted upon
1:09
the populations and their doctors. For.
1:11
Way too many decades, most doctors are
1:13
clueless on a lot of this information.
1:16
The only way to detect anything that
1:18
distress will be able to detect anything
1:20
as if there's at least fifty percent
1:22
blockage in your arteries. At least fifty
1:24
percent. However, Over seventy
1:27
present of all the heart attacks that
1:29
occur occur with less than fifty percent
1:31
of it's like, what are we doing
1:34
here? What's the point? There was a
1:36
study out of Johns Hopkins, not just
1:38
a couple years ago, And. They
1:40
found that seventy four percent of
1:43
doctors seventy four percent do not
1:45
know how to properly diagnosed or
1:48
test for pre diabetes or type
1:50
two. diabetes was like what? And
1:52
it's just such a shame because
1:55
those things are were all the
1:57
major diseases start. Your. Heart Attacks
1:59
years. Drugs, your Alzheimer's your sleep
2:02
apnea, you're going on and on
2:04
and on, your different cancers, blindness,
2:06
amputations, from diabetic neuropathy, and so
2:08
on and so forth. So they
2:11
all start with having some degree
2:13
of diabetic physiology. Annual.
2:16
I thoroughly enjoyed your new book Unholy
2:18
Trinity And to break that down, you're
2:21
using that term to describe carbs, sugar,
2:23
and oils, and we're gonna take some
2:25
time in get into each of these.
2:27
Starting with Carbs, which is a really
2:30
broad category that can describe a lot
2:32
of different things. Let's.
2:34
Talk about when you're using that word
2:37
what you're describing. Okay,
2:39
well ah, I know that. People.
2:41
Are going to sit a card? Sugar oils? What does
2:43
he mean? They're you know? But. You'll. Find
2:46
out the introduction and basically what
2:48
we're looking at. His carbs. We're
2:50
looking at. All. Refined
2:52
and it just really process
2:54
grains which they then turn
2:56
into. Bread. Pasta, Serial
2:58
Crackers, biscuits, waffles, pancakes, ships,
3:01
Pretzels roles, Pizzas and on
3:03
and on that way. Race
3:05
Thirty is in what not.
3:07
Ah, and then we have
3:09
the Candy cane guys. Cream
3:11
soda, fruit juice. A We
3:13
never had any of these.
3:16
And. Then the oils were talking about.
3:18
You know, the vegetable seeds oils.
3:21
Other are few that are okay, you know, like
3:23
authentic olive oil on that kind of thing. Is
3:25
people say when they see the oils? Oh, you mean
3:27
I can have olive oil? Know that? That's why we're
3:30
talking about to Nola. Soybean oil,
3:32
sunflowers, safflower all the. There's about eight
3:34
or nine of them that are just
3:36
deadly. And. Ah, so
3:39
those just the unholy trinity. And
3:41
the subtitle, the Book is.
3:44
How carbs, sugar and oils make
3:47
a spat sick In addicted. And.
3:50
How to escape their grip? How
3:52
carbs sugar in oils mere fat, sick and
3:54
addicted and how to escape their grips is
3:56
what I did was. The book is basically
3:59
what you would call a. Aid.
4:04
Data Evaluation An analysis
4:06
of this. A.
4:08
Nineteen Thirty, the obesity rate was one
4:11
percent. Were. Now approaching sixty
4:13
percent in less than a hundred years.
4:16
In Ninety thirty, the chronic
4:18
illness rate was seven percent.
4:21
Were. Now over sixty percent. Never
4:24
before in human history has
4:26
a population the size gotten
4:28
so fat and so six
4:30
so fast. What? The
4:32
Hell's Happening. right? Its
4:34
ups if you pull the strings. That's why I
4:36
like it in the beginning of the boat. The
4:39
first three chapters I get give the history how
4:41
we got here. How. We got all
4:43
the universe. So many. Refined.
4:45
Carbs and all the packaged foods in the
4:47
supermarket and so forth. and thus the oils,
4:50
how they came in there was none of
4:52
this was in our diet. Prior. To
4:54
one hundred years ago of it's
4:56
and so it's all new to
4:58
these. Evolutionarily. Develop
5:00
meet bodies that we have because.
5:03
As you know, For. Millions of
5:06
years at least confirmed by anthropologists
5:08
and by a walkie all ages.
5:10
What? Two point six to four
5:12
point five missing spears we've been
5:14
eating? Our diet consisted of what
5:16
would detach, kill, and eat knows
5:18
detail. And that
5:20
was. it may be what we'd pick off, a
5:23
binary tree, that kind of thing, but only
5:25
when it was in season. When the berries word
5:27
season, it wasn't all the time. So. Anyway,
5:30
that's that's what I'm talking about When we
5:32
say the carbs, the sugar, and the oils.
5:34
That's the simplified version of it. We can
5:36
dive into each one, of course, And.
5:39
In your you ever really interesting story that
5:41
brought you to writing this book and sharing
5:43
this story the fact that you thought you
5:45
were a healthy guy. And.
5:49
In your early seventies, your health
5:51
scare. Said. Take us back
5:53
there. And. Talk about what
5:55
brought you. To. Getting deep
5:58
into this information, understanding and. Now
6:00
breaking it down for others. Well.
6:02
I almost died of a heart attack. And
6:05
it was a complete and total shock. or because I you
6:07
know, like you say I was. I thought I was a.
6:10
Mister Healthy as it's
6:12
I was slim symptom
6:15
free. I. Was among
6:17
see there's about one or two percent of
6:19
the population There can be. On.
6:21
The lean side and have cardiovascular disease in
6:23
these other com morbidities which I'll tell you
6:25
about That I add that I had no
6:27
clue but the wake up call for me.
6:30
Was. The was the heart attack
6:32
and after a had that I thought
6:34
oh man. See. I
6:36
was fortunate to learn how to study
6:38
well early on. Basically, I'm just a
6:40
lower class street kid from Philly and
6:42
I shouldn't know any of his stuff
6:44
for it's but I was fortunate to
6:47
learn how to study early on. I.
6:49
Learned how to. Only
6:51
things that are interested in. I mean I
6:53
wasn't like a. Wonderful! Class
6:56
A Student Grade A Student through with her
6:58
everything. But if I was interested in something
7:00
you couldn't keep me from, it's because I
7:02
was able to master. The
7:04
use of dictionaries, Because.
7:07
If you don't know the terminology or
7:09
the nomenclature, You. Get
7:11
nowhere. And. Are Whether
7:13
you're studying medicine or law or whatever,
7:15
you just reading the newspaper and you
7:18
read something like the deficit or does
7:20
the deficit I don't know what that
7:22
is. You gotta use the dictionary and
7:24
these days we get these things called
7:26
the you know we have this of
7:28
visa Hey Siri What's the definition of
7:30
the word cardiovascular? Oh this is what
7:32
I found it. A what's the definition
7:34
of the word catheter. And
7:36
so you can find. Although that's easy
7:38
I used to I would go through
7:40
the painstaking process of using the dictionary,
7:42
but it was very valuable to me
7:44
because that way. Because. What happens
7:47
even with people now when they're
7:49
reading a book? If
7:51
they don't know a certain word they're not
7:53
going understand the sense is just kind of
7:55
like if you don't know the nodes you
7:57
can't whistle but to nursing to tune. If
8:00
you don't know the nerf the the nomenclature
8:02
of the terminology or certain word the you
8:05
think you might know. You're.
8:07
Not going understand sentence to knock on understand
8:09
paragraph your eyes are to get the bottom
8:11
of the page to go. On.
8:13
Blame for that I just reached. You get to
8:15
go back to find out where you were, door
8:17
case or.bad my god that like got that or
8:20
not sure. I know what the word and Ophelia
8:22
means. All. Jc clear that
8:24
ups and it's a painstaking process, but
8:26
the more you do it. The.
8:29
Less you have to do it
8:31
because you are cavalry just goes
8:33
through the roof your eyes. You
8:36
goes way up. And. You
8:38
are able to understand a lot more and
8:40
that's why I think it's one of the
8:42
keys to life. And. Living this
8:44
because. You know throughout our lives
8:46
will be being hit with all these different things Whether
8:48
it's a form you gotta fill out. You. Know
8:50
all that kind of thing. but I'm so
8:52
anyway. I was able to be fortunate enough
8:55
to dive into that, learn all those things,
8:57
And. I I so I had early on I
9:00
I had the I'm. I
9:02
went to You Tube university and Google
9:04
university and saw these books and everything
9:07
because I decide to hate. I.
9:09
Wanted to have on where the find out about
9:11
all these different tests and I did. Because.
9:14
I wanted to because my doctors say you know I
9:16
had just passed up. A stress test
9:18
with flying colors numbers and I found
9:20
out I should come back to that
9:22
to tell you why those are not
9:24
recommended by me or you know a
9:26
lot of medical doctors. And
9:30
it was. So I went through the all that.
9:32
and then I decided to get a lot of
9:34
testing done sorted of a benchmarks orchid measure my
9:37
progress. you know, six months down the line? a
9:39
year? sort of. Oh yeah, I'm really make some
9:41
progress. I'm doing the right things. And
9:44
then I found all these. Medical.
9:47
And nutritional geniuses on the
9:49
cutting edge of medical nutritional
9:52
science. And I started.
9:55
Finding out the true information
9:57
because looked, All.
9:59
over Yes, including our doctors have been misled
10:02
for decades by some of the most
10:04
flagrant scientific frauds of our times. The
10:07
notion that saturated
10:09
animal fat eating that is going
10:11
to cause heart disease and cancer
10:13
is crazy. It's
10:15
what we've been eating all the time, for millions
10:18
of years. In
10:20
fact, the very first heart attack, I mean, now it's
10:22
the biggest killer as you know, the very
10:25
first heart attack wasn't officially medically
10:27
recorded until 1912. It's
10:30
like, what? Now, it's our
10:32
biggest killer and you know,
10:34
cancer is number two. In
10:36
1900, I have all this in the book too.
10:38
So in 1900, you know, people
10:41
died of infectious diseases,
10:43
tuberculosis, pneumonia, that kind of
10:45
thing. And it wasn't until the
10:49
50s where it became, you know,
10:52
heart disease, cardiovascular disease. And
10:54
it's really interesting that that's
10:57
where all the fake science started.
10:59
You probably know of Ansel Keys, right? See
11:03
in 1955, our president Eisenhower, he had
11:05
a heart attack and a lot
11:08
of men were being taken in the prime of their life.
11:11
And it was like, what's going on here? And so he
11:13
came up with this theory
11:16
called the diet heart hypothesis, which said that it
11:18
was the butter and the meat and cheese and
11:20
everything that was clogging up the arteries. And he
11:22
gave this image of kind of like it was
11:24
like a shower drain, you know,
11:26
where it's, you
11:29
know, the hair and the gook and the grease and all
11:31
that and it clogs up there. And it's not like that
11:33
at all. In fact, the
11:36
plaque that builds up is sub endothelial. In
11:38
other words, it's beneath the artery wall. So
11:40
he had it all wrong. But
11:42
anyway, he was a very, he
11:46
turned out to be unethical, but very
11:48
influential because he, you
11:50
know, I show how his science
11:53
was really backwards back then.
11:56
And, And decades later,
11:58
they found out that. The.
12:00
Reason why people were falling over from
12:02
heart attack so much by the nineteen
12:04
fifties. Is because of
12:07
the epidemic to smoking. You.
12:09
Then discovered this decades later when they found
12:11
they discovered they had this thing called Microscope
12:13
Beats were you know you snake up this
12:16
teeny tiny camera see could see what's going
12:18
on in their right me arteries. And.
12:21
What happened what happened back then was
12:23
that see smoking destroys was called the
12:25
glycol tail x What is that? Biblical.
12:28
Tale was his first like lining
12:31
of the artery wall that acts
12:33
as the first line of protection
12:35
against small dance Ldl particles which
12:38
are the ones that cause that
12:40
can get in underneath the artery
12:42
wall. Big. Gather and
12:44
get stuck in this place called the
12:46
Into My Media space. And.
12:49
Eggs Over time they create. A
12:51
plaque buildup. And.
12:53
Dashwood causes your heart attacks and
12:55
strokes. It's. Know the
12:57
small, then sell the L particles souls
13:00
you're almost smoking. Went down with his
13:02
theories and everything from the fifties and
13:04
sixties, but an Earl by the late
13:06
sixties and Ninety seven, these. Big.
13:09
Food to name with all his
13:11
low fat, nonfat but high carb.
13:13
So I spoke to her for
13:15
food and so. What's.
13:17
The next. Deadlier
13:20
version of this destruction of the
13:22
glad to calix the carbohydrates from
13:24
grains and sugars. They destroy the
13:26
guy for jellies. Even worse than
13:28
smoking some weed Replace smoky which
13:31
destroys this glycogen alex which is
13:33
of a protective thing in our
13:35
arteries and replace it with. The
13:37
you know. Be. Deadly. Sugars
13:41
in carbs from these non fat. Non.
13:44
Are low fat foods in seventies and then
13:46
we can and then they came out with
13:48
the arm as you know what is will
13:50
be us dietary guidelines with the pyramid. And.
13:53
Date coincident. With.
13:56
That. In the seventies to see the
13:58
graph of the old obesity the a goal
14:00
like this for a fix it so is
14:02
just so crazy when you find out all
14:05
this true information is just mind blowing and
14:07
I that's why I had to write it.
14:09
I thought. I
14:12
tried as the was so much but
14:14
it blew my mind, and I thought
14:16
well if I can capture as many
14:18
times as I went, what are you
14:20
kidding? It's. If I could get
14:22
those moments as I had in the book
14:24
for the reader so that they could share
14:27
that and get their mind blown to. I
14:29
tried to do that too because most people
14:31
that you know they don't know any of
14:33
this information and I think the reason why
14:35
I lasted so long without having the heart
14:38
attack is because I would always make it
14:40
to the gym. And
14:42
sort Lisa had that don't for me. right?
14:45
So but anyway, I'm that's what
14:47
happened near with the history. I
14:49
have all that and chapter one
14:51
and two and so forth. So
14:53
it's a got insofar as the
14:55
smoking and neglected tail a son,
14:57
the carbs, sugar and oils and
14:59
then what happened after that with
15:01
the obesity risks excuse me, the
15:03
obesity rates which is now leading
15:06
to the demilitarization of are you
15:08
know our country because. I.
15:10
Think it's something like I can remember.
15:12
The exact figure is simply sixty or
15:14
seventy percent of the young people between
15:17
eighteen and twenty four do Not qualify.
15:19
For. The military because the main
15:22
reason is the reader overweight or
15:24
obese as like what. So.
15:27
We're We're the young people gonna come
15:29
from to save us from the next
15:31
natural disaster were defend us from an
15:34
enemy. So anyway that's gonna concerning to
15:36
sell. Or let's start
15:38
to give practical here with
15:40
the oils, the carbs and
15:42
the sugar. And for
15:44
somebody that wants to take this on and
15:46
right now they're eating a standard type diet.
15:49
Talk about what was the first shift you made.
15:52
And. Also what you recommend a people to
15:54
do this in a sustainable way. Will.
15:57
yeah you can't do everything all at once you
15:59
have to do you have to do
16:01
it on a gradient little by little.
16:03
Otherwise, you'll fail. Because I
16:05
recommend in the book to
16:08
eat an ancestral diet, just like a
16:10
lot of the geniuses that you've had on your channel,
16:14
an ancestral diet. What is that? That
16:16
was always throughout recorded
16:19
history, and even non-recorded
16:21
history for millions of years, was
16:23
a high-fat, low-carb diet.
16:27
We did intermittent fasting because we were lucky
16:29
to eat once a day. There was no
16:32
such thing as three
16:36
meals a day plus three
16:38
or four snacks. That's crazy.
16:40
In chapter one, I get
16:43
into the whole, you got to understand the people
16:47
need to understand the two
16:49
most fundamental processes in
16:51
the utilization and input of the
16:53
food that you put in your mouth.
16:55
That is glucose and insulin. You
16:58
put food in, your glucose goes up,
17:00
and insulin is secreted by the pancreas to
17:02
keep it in balance. If it's a little
17:04
too high, it brings it down, that kind
17:06
of thing. That's a perfectly
17:09
workable thing. But if you're eating multiple
17:11
times a day and you're eating the
17:13
wrong foods that shoot sky
17:16
high, shoot the blood sugar sky
17:18
high, you're going to be pumping out that
17:20
insulin like crazy, and you're going to create
17:23
what's called hyperinsulinemia, which is just
17:25
a fancy technical term. It
17:28
just means too much insulin in the
17:30
blood. Hyper too much insulin, emia
17:33
means in the blood. Hyperinsulinemia is
17:35
what leads to inflammation. Even 20 years
17:37
ago, it was a 2004 Time Magazine, had
17:44
a cover story. What is it? The
17:47
secret killer or the silent killer.
17:50
The connection between, I'm paraphrasing that
17:53
with something like the connection between
17:55
inflammation and heart disease, cancer,
17:57
and the heart disease. It's a very, very important thing. It's
17:59
a very important Alzheimer's, blindness,
18:01
I mean, it goes on and
18:03
on because the hyperinsulinemia, what happens
18:05
is it leads to prediabetes
18:10
and type 2 diabetes. That's what it
18:12
leads into. That's why you have, and then
18:14
you have your obesity come on. The first sign
18:16
of being prediabetic or type
18:19
2 diabetic is being overweight or obese.
18:21
But like I said, there's a small percentage
18:24
of the population, like 1% or 2%, that
18:26
can be on the lean side and still
18:28
be diabetic. That
18:30
was me. I
18:33
was a raging type 2 diabetic and
18:35
I didn't know because there's no symptoms,
18:37
right? There's no symptoms for any of
18:39
these things. I was like Dr. Peter
18:41
Rettia. He got
18:43
his type 2 diabetes from drinking so
18:45
much Gatorade and he was like an
18:47
incredible athlete with all the triathlons and
18:50
all that. I
18:53
got mine from eating way too many
18:55
carbohydrates because I didn't know that, see,
18:58
I was totally sold
19:00
on the propaganda and the
19:03
BS of heart healthy whole
19:05
grains. Air quotes, heart
19:08
healthy whole grains because I didn't know that these
19:10
grains, they turn into sugar when you put
19:12
them in the body. I mean,
19:14
wheat raises the blood sugar
19:16
higher than table
19:19
sugar. It even raises it higher than a
19:21
Snickers bar. It's
19:23
just crazy and people don't know any of this
19:26
information. That's why I wrote the book. I
19:30
said I need to write this for like
19:32
Uncle Joe or my brother Dave who are
19:34
not technically inclined. I
19:37
mean, I'll tell about the study. I'll say this
19:39
many people over this many years and this is
19:41
what they did and this is the results. So
19:43
stop doing that thing. Stop eating that thing. I'm
19:46
putting that in your mouth because this is the dangerous result
19:49
that you will get. My
19:52
book has more scientific references
19:54
and Citations than any
19:56
other book out there. The
20:00
dead backed up right knee even in the beginning to
20:02
block. right? After
20:04
the introduction to have a page says important
20:06
note. As a look I
20:08
know you might be say game. Without.
20:11
Formal. University
20:13
credentials and Medicine Organic Chemistry.
20:15
Why? I also. Don't
20:19
None of this is daniels opinion. None of
20:21
this is my but this is all. Randomized.
20:24
Controlled trials, Met and Aussies. This is what
20:26
the best of what. Twenty. First
20:28
century science has to offer for
20:30
your health and wellness and longevity.
20:33
Use. And six yourself I did.
20:36
You. Can to. Daniel.
20:38
I want to highlight something brought up
20:40
there the insulin resistance which is such
20:43
a court the me or book. the
20:45
fact that the issue starts were having
20:47
too many carbs are having them too
20:49
frequently. Causing. That glucose
20:51
a spike in the body causing
20:53
insulin despite. And. Then you took
20:55
it to the next step and talked about the
20:58
inflammation which leads to the chronic disease. Just a
21:00
really important concept that we're going to keep coming
21:02
back to throw out attack. Yeah.
21:04
Absolutely well. As the thing is is
21:07
that now this was not my discoveries.
21:09
A Again, this is. I'm not the
21:11
scientists. I'm a citizen scientists. But I
21:14
am not a doctor Or the the
21:16
scientists. I'm able to read anything just
21:18
like any doctor can. Ah,
21:20
I may have to look up more words
21:23
and say each issue, but ah, it's not
21:25
a barrier to me and I learned a
21:27
lot from. All. These
21:29
geniuses that I found online. Whether it's
21:31
doctor. Robert Lustig
21:34
or Jason Song or I've heard
21:36
comments and all be superstars of
21:38
metabolic health. And. With the proper
21:40
human diet is right. And because I didn't
21:43
know any of this, I was just like
21:45
the average person eating to. Sad. Sad.
21:47
As a D standard American diet and I
21:49
was buying all the things. You know, you
21:51
hear all these the news, it's like oh.
21:54
This is bad for your one week but it's
21:56
good for you that next week and it allows
21:58
just like everybody the else and I didn't know.
22:01
And so I'm. You. Know.
22:04
I sound all these people and I
22:06
just I looked. I read their books,
22:08
I looked at your studies or watch
22:11
their videos and I. Looked
22:14
up anything that I needed to look up
22:16
on. I got all these studies that I found.
22:18
I even use some of the ones that
22:20
they used. Selected proved to people
22:22
of this is really the way it
22:25
is and you have been bamboozled. Along.
22:28
With our doctors and everybody else does
22:30
the doctors say you know they don't
22:32
learn anything about nutrition in medical school.
22:34
They may get a few hours if
22:36
it's if right. And the oh it's
22:38
funny. I was on a young. I
22:41
don't know if you've had him on
22:43
yet but Dr. Phil of Bavaria yeah
22:45
he's a cardiologist. Oh yeah, we know
22:47
who I'm talking about then that would
22:49
you? Not only are cardiologists, he's a
22:51
cardio thoracic surgeon is done like what
22:53
over three thousand heart operations and even
22:55
if we got into this on his
22:57
podcast he had me on knob or
22:59
not but six weeks ago or something
23:01
and he said he asked me a
23:03
question it was valves validating to me
23:05
but also very revealing says it's something
23:07
like how was it it you as
23:09
a non physician were able. To figure this
23:11
all out. And. Ninety nine
23:14
percent of doctors either can't or won't.
23:17
And. I'm thinking wow, what a question that is.
23:19
So we explored. Dad and I have a ceiling
23:21
Now I haven't done any. Surveys
23:23
of doctors, but I have a feeling that
23:25
I think this might make sense. I
23:29
think they think they have the mentality that well
23:31
as they didn't. You see to me, a medical
23:33
school must not be that important. Or.
23:36
I shouldn't need to know about nutrition and
23:38
what people are eating or because I wasn't
23:40
taught that in medical school so must not
23:42
be that important. Then. I
23:45
say. Well. When.
23:47
You take little poo to your dog to
23:49
do. that was the first question they ask.
23:51
You are one of the first versus when
23:53
you're feeling a little bit pushy. So when's
23:55
the last and you had any doctor su
23:57
se So what you're done it frites it.
24:00
There's an app and are you getting to the
24:02
gym? Are you walking? Are you you know? Are
24:04
you moving? What's what's going on there? So. I'm
24:07
a were just reminded me of that dog,
24:09
that thing that he came up with. and
24:11
so that's what I said. I don't know.
24:13
Like I said, I haven't done any surveys
24:15
of doctors. We've been using
24:17
Air Doctor to filter the are in our
24:19
home for years and over time we built

24:37
For. The most part we don't hear the filters. they

24:41
have one in our bedroom near the kitchen and
24:43
sometimes I want to rub up to clean the.

want to take some time now and get
27:03
into the nuances of this unholy
27:05
trinity and coming back to
27:07
the carbs again this is
27:10
such again a broad term for
27:13
somebody who's new to this. Are
27:15
we talking about fruit, whole grains,
27:17
or just when the carbs have been
27:20
processed? No we are
27:22
talking about whole grains and fruit too. It's
27:24
just that you have to I mean
27:27
that's why the popularity of the carnivore
27:30
diet I mean I'm not carnivore I do keto
27:33
with intermittent fasting and
27:36
so on. I have a chapter 14 gives exactly what I
27:38
do because people are asking me so what do you do
27:40
how did you get your 26 pack at 75 you
27:42
know and so I tell them exactly what
27:44
I do and the book tells all this
27:47
it's low carb it's just an ancestral diet
27:49
I mean just let's face it what
27:51
we ate for millions of years at least hundreds
27:53
of thousands right especially this
27:56
version of our humanoid bodies at least 300,000
27:58
they've very The
28:00
reply. It's. What we
28:02
could catch Killing he knows sale. right?
28:04
So was a high fat, low
28:07
carb diet because the carbohydrates. Like
28:10
I said that we we might be able to pick
28:12
some berries off the tree, but only when it was
28:14
in season. And so as it
28:17
is only keep that moderate resides in
28:19
blueberries causes low glycemic, low lessons, that
28:21
kind of thing. I'm but
28:23
that's the only fruit priests. And
28:26
is killed me too because I'm a broke
28:28
my heart when have found out that there
28:30
are some stuff foods that you just said
28:33
guys stay away from this is so filled
28:35
with sugar like pineapple. And.
28:37
Was yellow and pineapple and watermelon. Oh
28:39
my God. Those are my two favorites
28:42
that I find out the get more
28:44
Sir Griffith points able sugar right? and
28:46
then you find out and wheat has
28:48
more raise your blood glucose higher than
28:50
a snickers bar. Ah,
28:53
Then. It's like okay, so I get
28:55
it now will? Dot. Is processed food
28:57
and everything but it does include the others
29:00
are you gotta keep. Ya. To keep
29:02
it at a it's a high fat. In
29:04
a want to say hi scientists have a healthy set. And.
29:07
I try to. Steer people
29:09
away from the t foes. Bob. Schieffer.
29:13
Was see a F O meet.
29:16
Concentrated. Animals for seeding
29:19
or operation. Concentrated animal feeding
29:21
operations and this is a
29:23
sad situation where you have
29:25
an animal. That. They
29:27
put into a space
29:29
and. They so job them
29:31
into acquiescing compliance. There they are for
29:34
the rest his allies as where they
29:36
edens shit and the stuff that they
29:38
eat is really bad or seed as
29:40
Gm. All and there's pumped up with
29:43
antibiotics and all kinds of wild stuff
29:45
needed the glyphosate so try to steer
29:47
people away from those kind of meats
29:49
right? Like. It's your while you're
29:51
fast food places in everything that I try to steer
29:53
him in the direction of. What?
29:56
is the result of regenerative farming
29:58
which is your grass fed pasture-raised
30:00
beef, wild-caught salmon.
30:02
You don't want to get the farm caught because that's
30:05
where you got a lot of
30:07
poisons in there. Um, and
30:09
that kind of thing, pasture-raised, uh,
30:11
organic eggs. So it costs a
30:13
little more, but the
30:16
bonus is that when you eliminate the snacks
30:19
and all the bad stuff, you
30:22
can more easily afford to buy the
30:24
grass-bed pasture-raised beef,
30:27
eggs, wild-caught salmon. Costco
30:30
has a lot of these things. It's like,
30:33
it's amazing. You know, they've got the,
30:35
they got the wild-caught salmon. They've got
30:37
a lot of really good organic, um,
30:40
uh, foods there where you can
30:42
not have to spend a lot of money. So
30:44
I see your people in that direction of the
30:46
ancestral way of eating and also doing some intermittent
30:48
fasting. And because, and I have all that in
30:50
the book, as you know, I have a chapter
30:53
eight. It's all about the science behind it.
30:55
Why does it work so well? Why do
30:58
our human bodies respond so well to it?
31:01
Uh, and that kind of thing. So what
31:03
I do is I recommend people first not
31:06
go overboard. If you're the average
31:09
person, you're eating three meals a day, plus three or
31:11
four snacks, the first thing you got to do is
31:13
get rid of the snacks and
31:15
you go by one, one by one, get
31:17
rid of one snack, they get two snacks
31:19
and the easiest way to get from point
31:22
A to point B, meaning from one meal
31:24
to the next without indulging in a snack
31:27
is you load it up on a, with a healthy fat
31:30
because fats are very satiating and
31:33
they fill you up and you feel more satisfied
31:36
and that way you can more easily get
31:38
from lunch to dinner and
31:40
that kind of thing. So you want to
31:42
have some eggs or beef
31:45
or whatever, uh, animal food
31:47
you want there. And
31:49
so you eliminate the snacks and then
31:51
you want to, the first thing you
31:53
want to do is eliminate breakfast because
31:56
most people are not hungry in the morning anyway,
31:59
and they eat out of. habit. And
32:02
believe me, big food has lots
32:04
of, you know, bagels and fruit
32:06
loops and pop tarts
32:08
and everything to sell you. So all
32:10
of that is available to you. But you
32:14
know, you got to eliminate all that because that's you
32:16
got to have the wake up call. But unfortunately, I
32:18
think most people are not to a
32:20
point where they're they've
32:22
reached need of change or demand
32:24
of improvement of themselves. They haven't
32:26
had some kind of because
32:29
they have no symptoms. That's
32:31
why I encourage testing in the book, you have to
32:33
test. And I asked, as
32:36
you know, by now, Dr. Ford Brewer,
32:39
he is like,
32:41
you know, an internationally acclaimed preventive medicine
32:43
expert out of Johns Hopkins. And I got
32:45
in touch with him and I because he
32:47
know he's a genius in all the testing,
32:49
right? But your average doctor
32:52
has no idea what are you know, what
32:54
they should be testing. And
32:56
I asked him to write what turned out to
32:58
be chapter 22. And what that is, it's the
33:01
most important blood tests and
33:03
labs that anyone can
33:06
get. But your doctor, if you
33:08
asked him for it, you
33:10
might say, you don't need that. You
33:13
don't need that. And the only reason he's
33:15
saying that is because he doesn't know
33:17
what it is and wouldn't know how to interpret
33:20
it anyway. Right. So and
33:22
he and doctors are not don't want
33:24
to get homework from patients,
33:26
right? They don't want to have to find these
33:28
things out. So if you can't get it done,
33:31
you can all I show how you can get
33:33
it online. There's several labs where you can buy
33:35
it inexpensively online without needing a doctor's prescription. That
33:39
way you yourself can find out if you've
33:41
got something lurking or ready to pounce, or
33:44
you're just fine, or somewhere in between
33:46
and needs attention. You Hey,
33:48
I need to check out why my so and
33:50
so is elevated. What is that? And
33:53
so you get these tests and it way
33:55
works is very simple. You
33:58
online I have all the states
34:00
I recommend. There's request to test.com. There's
34:02
life extension.com. And I don't have any
34:04
connection to any of these companies. And
34:07
you look at their menu, and
34:09
you find out from my book or
34:12
Dr. Ken Berry's book, okay, I need to get
34:14
that test, because my doctor doesn't want to order
34:16
for me. And he doesn't know what is anyway.
34:18
So I need to get that. So you pay
34:21
for it. The
34:23
company emails you a form, you print it
34:26
out, you take it
34:28
to your local lab, which is
34:30
either a lab corp or quest
34:33
diagnostic diagnostics. And
34:35
there are thousands of those all over the place, by
34:37
the way, so they won't be far from
34:39
you. And that way, they
34:41
draw the blood. And then when they're a
34:43
couple few days, you get your results. And
34:46
that way you can see, hey, I'm okay.
34:48
Or listen, I'm, I got
34:50
to go to the specialist that covers this. So
34:52
let me find out why is my
34:54
GGT elevated? That's gamma-glutamil transferase.
34:57
That's a liver enzyme, which
34:59
is extremely important that
35:03
most doctors don't check. And
35:06
I was discussing this with your
35:08
colleague, Dr. Ken Berry.
35:11
And they don't leave it out. They only check
35:14
this other liver enzyme if they check any at
35:16
all. And the GGT, the
35:18
reason why that's so
35:20
important is because here's
35:23
the deal. Life insurance
35:25
companies, they got to
35:27
know who to reject, who
35:29
to accept. They're not so interested in
35:32
medical science. They're just interested in
35:34
the bottom line. Who do we accept? Who do
35:36
we accept? And who do we
35:38
reject? And their number
35:40
one predictor of all cause
35:42
mortality is having
35:44
elevated GGT, gamma-glutamil transferase. And
35:47
you think, why
35:49
doesn't the medical field know this?
35:51
If the life
35:53
insurance companies know this, why don't you know? So
35:56
Anyway, we go into all that and you
35:58
have to check that because. That's.
36:00
The Key: That's what made me find
36:02
out that I had non alcoholic fatty
36:05
liver disease and a F L D
36:07
non alcoholic fatty liver disease. And.
36:10
That is detected through this gg
36:12
t. And as their number
36:14
one predictor of all cause mortality. So if
36:16
you've got elevated Gg T. That's.
36:19
That's pretty deadly. And then I
36:21
found studies that show that the
36:23
Gg a beloved having elevated Gg
36:25
t is very closely related to.
36:28
Cardiovascular. Disease and it was
36:30
a while ended the epiphany started having.
36:33
That's why I had a heart attack.
36:35
I had this and was off because
36:37
of my type two diabetes because. Type
36:41
Two diabetes. You. Know.
36:44
That is the biggest killer
36:46
of even juicy farm retires
36:48
leaders. God of heart disease.
36:50
Heart attacks, Strokes a Be
36:52
Traditions, blindness, cataracts, Sleep
36:55
Apnea, certain cancers on and on.
36:57
Pc aware, polycystic ovarian syndrome which
36:59
I have a whole chapter or
37:01
that as well as so. It's
37:04
a silent epidemic. Here's the killer. With.
37:08
Regard to testing. The.
37:10
Was a study out of Johns Hopkins?
37:12
not be just a couple years ago
37:14
and they found that seventy four percent.
37:17
Of doctors. Now
37:19
we're talking cardiologists, internists,
37:22
and. General. Practitioners seventy
37:24
four percent do not know how
37:26
to properly diagnosed or tests for
37:29
pre diabetes or type two. Diabetes
37:31
was like what. And. I
37:33
was on a lot of a. Podcast.
37:35
With said Dr. Brewer not long ago and
37:38
we were talking about how that's why it's
37:40
such an epidemic. It's a silent epidemic. They.
37:42
Don't know how to test for. Whose.
37:45
What? Most doctors who was built test
37:47
these fasting blood glucose? And
37:49
they'll check in a one see. However,
37:52
you can be in the normal range is
37:54
like I was. And. a
37:56
half be raising type two diabetic producers
37:58
no signs of those symptoms, there's no,
38:01
there's nothing that tells you, Hey, I might have type
38:03
2 diabetes. But my, there's
38:05
a one test that can really tell you, and
38:07
that's why I have it in chapter seven. Uh,
38:10
I called that section, um, the
38:13
most important health tests you've never had. And
38:17
that's because of, you know, it's the root
38:19
source root cause of all these other things.
38:21
Like with me, it was my type 2 diabetes was
38:24
the source cause of my cardiovascular
38:26
disease, my non-alcoholic non-alcoholic fatty
38:28
liver disease, as well as
38:30
my osteoporosis. And
38:32
all the research that I had
38:35
done, because these are all silent diseases, I
38:38
was able to reverse all four of those. And,
38:41
and that's what the book is about how
38:44
I did that. And,
38:46
um, the test, what they
38:48
need to do is do this test called
38:50
the oral glucose tolerance test with insulin. It's
38:53
OGTT with insulin. I covered in chapter
38:55
seven, Dr. Brewer covers it
38:57
in his, um, chapter 22, which is
38:59
all the, what are the
39:02
most important blood labs and scans that you can get. And
39:05
what did it, and doctors don't order it.
39:07
They just don't order it. And
39:10
that is the one, that's the one that I got. Cause like
39:12
I said, after I had my heart attack, I got all these
39:14
tests and I got that one. I thought, well, I
39:17
might be pre-dipet. There's no way I'm type 2
39:19
diabetic, right? And
39:21
my score was way over 200. Uh,
39:23
and that proves that you're in the diabetic
39:25
danger zone, right? Uh, even though
39:27
I was on a, on the lean side. So
39:30
you have to do this test as well as others.
39:33
And um, yeah, like that.
39:37
And this ties back to insulin
39:39
resistance. We were talking about before
39:41
the fact that this can all
39:43
happen basically silently
39:45
over even a decade
39:47
or more. As you
39:50
continue to bring carbs in and
39:52
spike the blood glucose, insulin
39:54
keeps taming that and your body makes
39:56
more and more insulin. You're
39:58
becoming insulin resistant. diabetic and
40:01
eventually diabetic and
40:03
oftentimes you don't find out until you're all the way
40:05
at the end of the spectrum. And
40:08
we talked about before the insulin going up
40:10
over all the years is causing inflammation in
40:12
the body and you
40:14
don't even know it. Oh my God, you
40:16
just that's got to be a
40:18
short on you to what you just said. That's just
40:21
that's a in a nutshell. That
40:23
is what happens and
40:25
people don't know any of this. You know, I mean
40:27
snacking wasn't even a thing prior to 50 or 60
40:29
years ago. We didn't have
40:31
snacks. I mean, when I grew up, yeah,
40:33
it's a breakfast. You had some lunch and some dinner. I was
40:36
there. I mean, once in a while, maybe have
40:38
some ice cream at night or a little thing
40:40
like that. But the snacking was not a thing. People
40:44
are grazing all day long. I think that's what
40:46
they call it grazing, you know, and
40:48
there's certain diet plans
40:51
to lose weight that have you
40:53
eaten five or six times a
40:55
day. It's like, what? These
40:57
bodies were never used to such an onslaught
41:00
of these kinds of foods in
41:02
the amounts and the concentrations of
41:06
the carbs because they're all most
41:08
of them were just refined in the highly
41:10
processed and the sugars and
41:12
let's not forget the high fructose corn syrup.
41:15
That's really deadly. That's what the
41:17
source of my non-alcoholic fatty
41:19
liver disease was. Right.
41:22
And see with that,
41:24
NAFLD, non-alcoholic, because I don't drink,
41:27
no drugs, you know, I'm
41:29
already silly enough as my daughters will
41:31
surely attest. So
41:36
the range is supposed to
41:38
be below 65. Mine
41:41
was 265. It
41:43
was like, what? So I was in big
41:45
danger. I was not long for this world
41:47
with that because, as I
41:49
said, the number one predictor of mortality
41:51
for the life insurance companies is having
41:54
elevated GGT. And
41:56
it takes a while to have it repair. You
42:00
can get through it, but that's
42:02
what I was saying before. You don't have to try all of this
42:04
at the same time. First go low carb,
42:07
start cutting back on the carbs and the sugar,
42:10
and then start eliminating the snacks. And
42:14
then go to two meals a day. See
42:17
if you can do that. And the ketogenic
42:19
diet, which is basically how we were operating
42:23
throughout recorded history,
42:25
was a high fat, low carb. It's
42:29
also known as the never hungry diet. Because
42:33
your fake appetites, they
42:36
disappear because carbohydrates
42:39
don't satisfy appetite. They stimulate
42:41
it. And
42:44
a good example of that is I have this
42:46
chapter, chapter 10. It's called
42:48
Are You a Wheat Addict? And
42:52
that's because first of all,
42:54
we never started eating wheat and grains until
42:56
about 9,000 years ago or
42:59
something in that. And that's like what? That's a
43:02
snap of the finger in the eons of time.
43:04
And there's this thing, and I was
43:06
talking about this with Ken Berry, that
43:09
there's this thing called species adaptation hypothesis.
43:11
That's where when a certain species of
43:13
animal, including us, is used
43:15
to doing something for a very long time,
43:17
that becomes their healthy, adapted way. And
43:20
this is the way we were adapted all
43:23
this time. An example he gave, it was
43:25
funny, Dr. Berry, he says, hey
43:27
Daniel, here's a good example of it. I
43:29
have 70 sheep in the pasture. And he
43:31
does because he's on a big farm now.
43:34
And if somebody came along and said, hey, we
43:37
got this new food that we made up in the factory,
43:40
that these sheep, they shouldn't be eating the grass
43:42
and the wheat. They should be eating this new
43:44
food that Pirena came up with and got a
43:46
patent on. And
43:48
you should be feeding that instead. And
43:51
it's like, oh my god. And people would look
43:53
at you and go, what? Are you crazy? So
43:55
it's the same thing with human beings. We're
43:57
just not used to eating this because all of these
43:59
things ever in the human diet prior to
44:01
about a hundred years ago. And
44:04
so that's why it's just so super crazy. And with
44:06
regard to the wheat, I
44:10
have in chapter 10, I have a picture
44:12
of a skull of a guy. He's a
44:14
hundred thousand years old, well, the skull is,
44:17
and he's got perfect teeth. And
44:20
I asked him the book, do you think he
44:23
had floss or an orthodontist or, you know, brushed
44:26
three times a day? No,
44:29
see what happened was after
44:31
they started eating wheat, about
44:33
9,000 years ago, everything changed.
44:38
They had tooth decay,
44:40
teeth were falling out, the diameters
44:42
of the bones were
44:44
getting smaller and thinner, men shrunk
44:47
five inches, women shrunk three inches,
44:49
all these new diseases were coming
44:51
in. It changed everything.
44:56
And then in the, when
44:59
you move forward to the, was it the
45:01
sixties and seventies, big egg, big egg came
45:03
along and they changed it all because up
45:05
to that point, it grew to shoulder height,
45:09
right? Amber waves of grain and all
45:12
like that. What they did was they
45:14
reconfigured it. They had
45:16
this thing called chemical
45:18
mutagenesis and radiation
45:21
mutagenesis. And that amps up
45:23
this chemical called gliadin, G-L-I-A-D-I-N,
45:25
gliadin, what is that? Well
45:28
gliadin, that,
45:34
it attaches to the opiate receptors of the
45:36
brain. It doesn't get us
45:39
high or relieve pain. What it
45:41
does is makes us crave more of the
45:43
things that have grains
45:46
in them, like the bread, the pasta,
45:48
the cereal, the biscuits, the waffles, the
45:50
pancakes and all that. And
45:52
that's why it's so deadly. And we just, people
45:54
have an addiction to that. And that's why I
45:56
recommend when you're first coming off of those things,
45:58
because they're besides all the. carbs and sugar that's
46:00
in them, because a lot of the
46:03
big food puts a high fructose corn syrup in a
46:05
lot of them. You
46:07
need to amp
46:10
up your B vitamins, drink plenty
46:12
of fluids. It's kind of like you're on
46:15
a withdrawal for a couple of weeks. You will get through it
46:18
and you won't have those cravings anymore. I'm
46:21
telling you, it's just a wonderful experience
46:23
once you get there. You
46:26
don't have the hunger anymore. Like I said before,
46:29
carbohydrates do not satisfy
46:31
appetite. They stimulate it. Throughout
46:34
our conversation here, I'm getting a pretty good idea
46:37
of your diet, what you're eating when you're eating.
46:39
I know your keto and your big
46:42
intermittent fasting. I think at
46:44
this point it'd be good to go through a
46:46
typical day, talk about
46:48
what you're eating when you're eating it. When
46:52
you're in that fasting period, depending on the person,
46:54
I know certain people are allowing certain
46:57
things within that window. From
46:59
your book, I know you make a fatty coffee. Take
47:03
me all the way back to when you wake up. Take
47:05
me through a day and just
47:08
to give us a better picture of what that looks like. Here's
47:11
the deal. I get up in
47:13
the morning, maybe have some water,
47:15
a little bit. The
47:18
only thing that I'll eat all morning is I'll make
47:21
this... I
47:23
have a one 12-ounce mug
47:26
of coffee. It's organic coffee.
47:29
One thing I can mention here, I have all this
47:31
in the book, is that you want
47:33
to go organic when it comes to coffee because
47:35
most coffee, it's
47:38
the most sprayed with pesticide
47:40
crop in the world. If
47:43
you're not having organic, you're getting all that in
47:45
there. You want to always go with organic if
47:47
you can. Sorry
47:49
Starbucks. Anyway,
47:53
you want to do that. I have that. What I
47:55
do is I put in this MCT
47:57
oil powder. put
48:00
in MCT oil, my stomach
48:02
doesn't care for the effect of that.
48:04
So I just get this thing called
48:06
MCT oil powder. It's the oil but
48:08
it's been powderized. And
48:10
what does that do? That does two
48:12
things. It creates exogenous ketones, an exogenous
48:15
from outside the body. It helps create
48:17
ketones, it helps suppress your appetite. And
48:19
I cover why you want ketones active in your body
48:21
in chapter three, I think it is. And
48:24
that's very valuable. So I have
48:26
that and I sit at my desk and I
48:28
drink that slowly over the next, pardon
48:31
me, the next couple few hours while
48:34
I work at my desk, that kind of thing. And
48:37
then I like to do instead
48:39
of the intermittent fasting that they
48:41
normally recommend 16 hours,
48:43
right? I do 18
48:45
a day. So I don't know, because
48:48
I read all of the amazing benefits from
48:50
it, which I have in chapter eight, I
48:52
cover intermittent fasting. And this
48:54
period, this process called
48:56
autophagy. And why it's
48:58
so amazing for the body and
49:01
killing cancer cells and all kinds
49:03
of it's just wow raises your
49:05
HGH. It's just, you got
49:07
to read chapter eight just for that. It's just amazing
49:10
what autophagy does. So I do
49:12
18 hours a day. And then
49:14
what I'll do is mid to
49:16
late morning, I'll go to
49:18
the gym and work out. Because and
49:22
I have all this in chapter nine, which is all
49:24
everything you need to know about exercise is
49:27
in chapter nine. Because when you what
49:30
they found is when you do facet
49:32
exercise, well, first of all, it's been a
49:34
secret to Hollywood trainers for a
49:37
long time to do facet exercise. I mean,
49:39
that's how what's his name, the Wolverine, Hugh
49:42
Jackman, that's how he gets completely
49:44
ripped because he did the 16
49:46
hour intermittent fasting and a low
49:48
carb thing. And then he just got what
49:50
you see. I mean, he just got crazy
49:52
ripped. And, and
49:55
that's what that does. Because what they found is,
49:58
there's a couple of studies that I have in the book called So
50:01
there's this one where they randomized
50:03
control trial that had a group
50:06
that did fasted exercise and the
50:08
other group did, they ate breakfast
50:10
and they follow them over a period of time and they found that
50:13
once it did fasted exercise, lost 300% more
50:16
fat, adipose tissue than
50:22
the other group. 300%, that's huge,
50:25
right? More fat tissue just disappears. And
50:29
so that's the way to go and
50:31
it's easier to do if you're doing
50:33
keto and that kind of thing because
50:35
again, it's also called the never hungry diet,
50:37
right? So I do that, I'll
50:39
spend maybe 60 minutes there and I
50:42
don't go every day because I don't have time for it,
50:44
you know? I'm like you, I'm busy, I got things, places
50:48
to go, people to see and all that kind of stuff,
50:50
mostly in front of my desk. So
50:54
I do that and that really helps a lot. And
50:57
then I'll come back, I'll have my first meal of
50:59
the day which is usually some eggs
51:02
with cheese, maybe some
51:05
crispy bacon, that kind of
51:07
thing. So it's a high fat, low carb. I
51:10
might top it off at the end with a teaspoon
51:14
or so of blueberries. Again,
51:18
low glycemic, low lectins,
51:21
it's kind of, you know, satisfied any sweet
51:23
tooth, not always but I do that. And
51:27
then that'll see me through
51:29
till dinner and
51:31
I'd like to eat beef usually. One time a
51:33
week I'll have the salmon
51:36
but I'll have beef and I'll have, I might
51:39
have once in a while some asparagus which are
51:41
very low lectins and I don't know if your
51:43
audience knows what lectins are but I
51:46
cover that in chapter 11, it's called
51:48
perilous plants and how dangerous all the
51:50
plants can be. I don't
51:52
want to get into that right now. But anyway, so I'll
51:55
have that and then sometimes
51:57
I'll have as a dessert, I'll
51:59
make this low-carb sugar-free
52:03
keto granola that
52:06
I'll put some maybe some berries and
52:09
I'll use this yogurt
52:12
that I make myself. I have the
52:14
whole recipe in chapter 23. It's called
52:18
oh my god I'm still so impressed with
52:20
the research I did on that chapter 23.
52:22
It's called maximizing gut health. Wow,
52:25
the wonders it does for and I got
52:27
a lot of this data
52:30
from Dr. William Davis,
52:33
cardiologist. He wrote a book called
52:35
something several years ago on the
52:38
gut and super god. There
52:40
you go. He's been on the show two
52:42
times. No kidding. Actually three times. He's just
52:44
amazing, right? So I learned a lot from
52:46
him and I have this El Mirai yogurt
52:49
in there but I have all the information
52:51
on why it's important and why you need
52:53
that for your gut because the
52:55
gut is so important
52:57
to the health of the rest of the body.
53:04
You got to get all that in you. I have that.
53:06
Everything, that's kind of like in
53:08
a nutshell what I do every day with regard to
53:11
eating. All right, let me jump in my intermittent fast
53:13
just to get some clarification on a couple pieces of
53:15
that. That was great. When
53:17
it comes to exercising fasted,
53:20
you mentioned coming back and having something
53:22
like bacon and eggs afterwards. Do
53:25
you like to push that fast before
53:28
you break it and have that lunch? So
53:30
you finish your exercise, you're fasted. Do you
53:33
come home and eat right away or do you
53:35
like to push that off a little bit? No,
53:37
no, no. I like to what I the way
53:39
I measure it is I try to make sure
53:41
that I'm finished my dinner completely by 7 o'clock
53:47
and then I know okay 18 hours that's
53:49
1 p.m. the next day. So
53:52
that's how I figured that's
53:54
my 18 hours. So if I get home at
53:56
noon, I'm not eating
53:58
until 1 o'clock. maybe 1230,
54:00
I start putting it all together. I mean, I don't know,
54:02
I just, I never measured that amount
54:04
of time, but that's what I do. I
54:07
try to be done by seven at night so
54:09
that I know that my target is one
54:11
o'clock. And if I have to eat a
54:13
little earlier, big deal. I'm still getting my, at least
54:15
my 16 in, right? So in
54:17
other words, if I have to meet people or
54:20
they're coming over, we're going to have some breakfast or
54:22
something and they're going to do it at noon instead
54:24
of one, no, no big deal. So
54:27
your diet's keto. Are you measuring
54:29
ketones at all? Or are you
54:31
just by the amount of carbs you're taking in
54:33
how you're eating, assuming you're in ketosis? I
54:36
got it down. I checked all that long
54:38
ago. I got a, what do
54:41
you call it? The Freestyle Libre 3. And you
54:45
can just get it for a short amount of time and
54:47
test things out. That's what I did. You can get it.
54:49
It's, you get one and it lasts for 14 days, right?
54:51
Every 14 days you got to get a new one if
54:55
you need that guidance. But
54:57
I was so on top of it, I was, I
54:59
would, I did it so I could test things. Okay.
55:01
So what happens if I eat some rice? What
55:04
happens to this? Because my body's different than your
55:06
body, right? I may not be able
55:08
to metabolize carbohydrates
55:11
as well as you and
55:13
people that have, it depends on the genetics,
55:15
right? So you have to be tuned
55:17
into that. So then I found out all these different
55:20
things like, okay, so I got to avoid
55:22
that and I'm okay with this and
55:24
so forth. And so that's how I did that.
55:26
So I did measure all that and
55:28
I recommended people in the, you know, you can
55:30
buy online. I think
55:32
it's like Amazon. A
55:34
chart you can put on your, you
55:37
know, put up on your refrigerator just
55:39
shows the number of carbohydrates into various
55:41
foods and, and that could be your
55:44
initial guide. Get one of these devices
55:46
like Freestyle Libre. It's the CGM, continuous
55:48
glucose monitor. So you know what
55:51
certain foods and drinks do to your
55:55
blood glucose, whether it's hitting the sky
55:57
high, cause if you know that's happening.
56:00
then your insulin is going to be coming in. You're
56:02
going to be getting hyperinsulinemia, the inflammation,
56:04
the prediabetes, the type
56:06
2 biobates and the insulin. Let's
56:08
not forget the insulin is
56:11
the fat storage hormone. So
56:14
you don't want to have lots of
56:16
insulin pumping through your blood.
56:18
So anyway, like that. All
56:21
right. Let's come back to the microbiome. You're
56:23
a fan of, as you've just said,
56:25
the Dr. Davis wrote our yogurt. How
56:29
else do you look at the microbiome? Because classically,
56:34
when people go to emphasize and
56:37
build up the microbiome, they're looking to have a
56:39
lot of plants, a lot of fiber, diversity
56:42
in color, diversity in plants.
56:46
You've talked about the yogurt piece, but everything
56:48
else that you're doing is
56:50
in contrast to that. So
56:52
talk about the microbiome as a whole. Well,
56:54
first of all, the first thing I want to say is
56:57
that, listen, our
56:59
ancient ancestors, they
57:02
didn't eat a lot of plants and all
57:05
that. And there was no
57:07
such thing as vegans and vegetarians and all
57:09
that. They just didn't exist. And
57:14
they have very healthy microbiomes.
57:16
In fact, they've done testing.
57:18
I'm not sure if Dr. Davis covered
57:20
this or not, but I think maybe it
57:22
was Dr. Paul Saladino where there's certain hunter-gatherers
57:26
that are still existing. There's just a
57:28
handful of them around the planet now.
57:30
And they have amazingly healthy microbiomes. And
57:34
they're not big on plants or that kind
57:36
of thing. So even,
57:38
oh boy. Well,
57:41
you know, chapter four, it's
57:43
called Shattering Myths About Blue
57:45
Zones. Because we've all
57:47
been sold as Bill of Goods that,
57:50
oh well, the blue zones
57:52
are where they have the most centenarians.
57:54
And that's because they're vegetarian. And
57:58
what a complete bunch of BS. that
58:00
is. I cover all that and debunk all that
58:02
in Chapter 4 because just as one example, this
58:06
is Dan Buechner. He's got some good data
58:08
in his books and so forth, but he
58:11
came up with these five blue zones and
58:14
Okinawa, for example, that has the most
58:18
centenarians and super centenarians. Super centenarian
58:20
is somebody who lives beyond 110,
58:22
right? And there's a
58:27
video that you can watch and I tell this
58:29
to the reader. I say, you can watch this
58:31
yourself on YouTube. There's
58:33
a video that he shows. He says, in
58:36
all honesty, the people in the blue zones
58:38
do eat meat, but for
58:40
ongoing blue zone businesses, we decided to
58:42
stay 100% vegetarian. So
58:45
this was like a business decision, right? And so,
58:48
and I even put in parentheses, I say, so
58:51
all this time we've been led to believe that
58:53
vegetarians or the blue zones are
58:55
vegetarian and that is why they had so many
58:57
centenarians because what they did was they did a
58:59
survey on Okinawa and they ate tons of pork
59:01
and fish and everything else. There
59:04
were no vegans and vegetarians found
59:06
amongst any of the centenarians or
59:09
super centenarians. And it's like, whoa,
59:11
you know, so anyway, that's
59:15
a whole other thing. And I don't want
59:17
to mock his work or anything, but if
59:19
you really dig deep down into it, we
59:21
don't need these plants. And I
59:25
mean, not that it's going to
59:27
harm you or anything, but you
59:30
can't just leave those alone. Anyway,
59:32
that's the long answer to your short question there. Modern
59:36
life is stressful and stress
59:38
silently robs your body of magnesium, which
59:40
is a vital mineral our bodies depend
59:42
on. If you're not careful, you
59:44
can get caught up in the vicious
59:47
stress magnesium deficiency cycle. In
59:49
its simplest form, it starts with modern
59:51
life stress. This depletes your
59:53
body of magnesium, your sleep
59:55
becomes negatively impacted. So you have
59:57
less energy and productivity and
59:59
you're stress level skyrocket. Increased
1:00:02
stress further depletes your magnesium.
1:00:05
It's time to break this cycle.
1:00:07
Beyond things like exercise and meditation
1:00:09
that modulate stress, magnesium breakthrough from
1:00:11
bi-optimizers will help you immensely. It
1:00:14
contains seven forms of magnesium
1:00:16
and promotes muscle relaxation, helps
1:00:18
control stress hormones, boosts your
1:00:20
energy and improves sleep. My
1:00:23
wife and I have been using magnesium breakthrough
1:00:25
for years and we each take two capsules
1:00:27
before bed. As a listener to the
1:00:29

1:00:50
you talk about in the book, you actually
1:00:52
had a period of your life you were
1:00:54
a vegetarian. Yeah. When was that and what
1:00:56
did that do to your health? Oh, that
1:00:59
was several years ago. But I you know,
1:01:01
that's, that's the time when I put on
1:01:03
weight. I had ballooned
1:01:05
up to another like I was an extra 10
1:01:07
pounds and I'm starting to get a gut. Because
1:01:10
I don't know. I mean, you know,
1:01:13
I'm sure there are exceptions to this
1:01:15
but every single vegetarian and vegan that
1:01:17
I've met, they eat tons
1:01:19
of carbs. And
1:01:21
it's not always I mean, despite what
1:01:24
they call themselves, they're
1:01:27
eating the chips and the popcorn and the
1:01:29
bread and the pasta and the you know,
1:01:32
all of that is like, you know, they're
1:01:34
pouring that in there. And they
1:01:36
may eat their salads. I mean, I like
1:01:38
salads too. So
1:01:41
but you know, they're just
1:01:43
not eating all of the veggies that
1:01:46
they proclaim that according to their title,
1:01:49
that they say they are and
1:01:51
maybe there are some people who
1:01:53
are doing that but it's very
1:01:55
evolutionarily inconsistent with that with how
1:01:57
these current meat bodies that we all
1:02:00
have are used to eating
1:02:02
for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of years.
1:02:06
And that's not my, just my opinion,
1:02:08
but that's what the, anybody that studies
1:02:11
anthropology or bio-archaeology, that's what they'll tell
1:02:13
you, uh, because the
1:02:15
grains and the beans and all
1:02:17
that, those were reserved. You
1:02:20
know, I asked in the book, I have chapter 12, where
1:02:22
I covered the CAFOs that I talked about and
1:02:25
I, you know, I go into the
1:02:27
whole regenerative farming and why that's preferable.
1:02:29
And then I asked, you know, why
1:02:32
is it that the rich, most rich
1:02:34
and powerful elite of the planet are
1:02:36
pushing plant-based diets when
1:02:39
throughout recorded history, those were reserved
1:02:41
for slaves, prisoners, and foot soldiers.
1:02:44
The Romans, they marched on barley. The
1:02:47
elites always had as much as
1:02:49
they wanted. So why is it
1:02:51
that they want us to eat crickets and grasshoppers?
1:02:54
And well, I have this in the book too,
1:02:56
there's a tweet from the WEF, the World
1:02:58
Economic Forum, that's where all this has come
1:03:00
from. These are the most elite, you know,
1:03:03
they're flying into Davos on their own planes
1:03:05
and everything. And they're the ones
1:03:07
that are pushing it on the rest of us. And
1:03:09
they, there's a tweet from them. They says, well, uh,
1:03:12
meat will be available in the future, but
1:03:14
it will be a special treat. I'm
1:03:17
thinking, well, clap. Thanks Klaus Schwab.
1:03:20
What a nice slave master, right? So
1:03:22
it's just so, um, Look,
1:03:25
I don't want to get into a whole political thing, but
1:03:28
it makes you wonder, what are
1:03:30
they up to? Why do they want us, do they
1:03:32
want us overfed and
1:03:34
undernourished and over psych drugs and undereducated
1:03:36
and you know, all these different things.
1:03:38
I mean, wow. So if
1:03:42
you had to guess, what would you say it is? What's underlying
1:03:44
all that? Well, what I think
1:03:46
it is, is, and what I'm almost
1:03:49
a hundred percent sure of is the, their
1:03:53
stated ideal global
1:03:56
population, quote unquote, is 500,000.
1:04:00
We're cluttering things up for them. We're
1:04:03
using all their stuff. It all
1:04:05
belongs to them, right? So
1:04:07
whether it's the jab or
1:04:09
if it's let
1:04:11
them eat shit and die or
1:04:14
whatever it is, the population is
1:04:16
going down and down and down.
1:04:20
And they're dying off sooner. I mean, just in
1:04:22
the last five years, our lifespans
1:04:25
have declined four years. It
1:04:27
used to be, what, 79 for
1:04:30
women and 75 for men, something like that.
1:04:32
Now it's down like four years earlier.
1:04:36
Of course, we had the last few years
1:04:39
of that craziness we went through, but there's
1:04:41
all these other things too. That's why people,
1:04:43
the number one killer is heart disease. V-TAC
1:04:48
especially, V-TAC is short for ventricular
1:04:50
tachycardia, and that is the number
1:04:52
one cause of sudden death. And
1:04:55
that's where it's a
1:04:58
heightened version of
1:05:00
AFib, atrial fibrillation, where the heart is
1:05:02
beating you fast. And what can
1:05:04
happen is you could
1:05:06
just pass out and then you're gone. If
1:05:09
you're not around anyone to wake you up or
1:05:11
to call the EMTs or anything, that's it. And
1:05:15
people are dying left and right. So
1:05:18
anyway, it's depopulation. Look,
1:05:23
I don't know, I'll watch what I'm saying here any
1:05:25
further because I know YouTube, I don't
1:05:29
want the overlords of the World Economic
1:05:31
Forum and YouTube and the World Health
1:05:33
Organization, which YouTube follows, to come down
1:05:35
on your channel because, hey, that Daniel
1:05:37
Trevor said something over there that didn't
1:05:40
fit in with our protocol.
1:05:42
So next time, anyway,
1:05:46
so I don't want to
1:05:48
get into that any further. Just for the safety of
1:05:50
your website, I mean for your YouTube channel. All
1:05:53
right, let's come back to the microbiome. Yeah. So
1:05:55
you've stated fiber, not a concern
1:05:57
when it comes to maintaining a healthy... microbiome,
1:06:01
but you are an advocate of
1:06:03
the microbiome and optimizing that through
1:06:05
the yogurt. Right. What
1:06:08
other things are you doing or avoiding
1:06:10
to make sure your microbiome
1:06:12
is optimal? Well, I
1:06:14
do, since the glutamine
1:06:18
in your diet is really great
1:06:20
for the microbiome, I
1:06:22
like to break my fast, whether it's at my
1:06:26
18 hours, with just like a three
1:06:28
or four ounces of bone broth. Bone
1:06:32
broth, which you can buy at Trader
1:06:34
Joe's, any health food store,
1:06:38
it's loaded with glutamine. So I like to take a
1:06:40
little bit of that down. Not that I'm big on
1:06:43
broths or soups or anything like that, but
1:06:45
in order to coat the
1:06:48
lining and
1:06:50
see, we have
1:06:52
these things called enterocytes in our
1:06:54
gut that act as a barrier.
1:06:57
They're cells, they're single cell, and
1:06:59
it's a barrier between your gut
1:07:01
and the outside world. And if
1:07:04
you get a leaky gut, it starts to
1:07:06
separate and all the toxins can leak through,
1:07:09
and then a lot of
1:07:11
problems can happen. And this,
1:07:13
the glutamine can really help solidify and
1:07:15
bring that together and keep it together.
1:07:18
So that's why I do that. I have that in the book too.
1:07:21
And the good thing about what I have there is I put
1:07:23
together, first
1:07:26
thing you want to do is there are
1:07:28
several places online that you can test
1:07:30
your microbiome to see what you got
1:07:32
going on. There
1:07:35
are different families that you maybe have
1:07:37
too many of, of the CFUs,
1:07:40
colony forming units of
1:07:42
these different bacteria and microbes, and
1:07:44
maybe you have not enough of some. There's
1:07:46
a couple of companies where you can, you send
1:07:49
them a tiny sample of your poop and
1:07:52
they put it through their AI and they
1:07:54
analyze it and everything, they'll send you back
1:07:56
like, hey, listen, you're way over. You've
1:07:58
got SIBO. That's small
1:08:01
intestinal bacterial overgrowth. You've
1:08:03
got this, you've got that, and these
1:08:06
are the foods you should avoid. These are
1:08:08
the foods you should add. Now, I can't
1:08:10
always say that you need to follow their
1:08:12
recommendations, food, because if it doesn't make sense
1:08:14
to you or if it goes against what
1:08:17
you're following, then skip it. Find another way to do
1:08:19
it. But at least you want to get an idea
1:08:21
of, okay, I've got way too
1:08:23
much overgrowth of fungi or this or that.
1:08:26
And that way, you know you've got
1:08:29
work to do because a lot of the diseases and
1:08:32
modernity are originating
1:08:34
down there. I mean, it makes sense. That's where
1:08:36
the food's going, right? And
1:08:39
so like that. You would want
1:08:42
to do some testing. I have what the companies
1:08:44
are. And again, anything in the book that I
1:08:46
recommend, I don't have a financial
1:08:48
connection or interest to in any way. So
1:08:52
you want to get those tests, one of them at least.
1:08:55
And then you know exactly where you stand, just like with
1:08:57
anything, just like you want to get some of the tests.
1:09:00
You want to get the OGTT with insulin
1:09:02
to find out if you're a raging type
1:09:04
2 diabetes like I was. You
1:09:07
know, if you don't know, because there's
1:09:09
no symptoms. There's no
1:09:11
symptoms. And again, like that's that
1:09:13
I told you before, 74% of
1:09:16
doctors don't know how to
1:09:18
properly diagnose or test for prediabetes
1:09:21
or type 2 diabetes. And
1:09:24
it's just such a shame because those
1:09:27
things are where all the
1:09:29
major diseases start. Your
1:09:31
heart attacks, your strokes, your Alzheimer's, your
1:09:33
sleep apnea, your, you know,
1:09:35
on and on and on, your different
1:09:37
cancers, blindness, amputations
1:09:40
from diabetic neuropathy, and so on and
1:09:43
so forth. So they all start with
1:09:45
having some degree of
1:09:47
diabetic physiology. And
1:09:49
that's why your glucose and your
1:09:51
insulin are so extremely important. And
1:09:54
you got to make a 45 minute 45
1:09:56
second or a second short on YouTube with
1:09:58
what you just said earlier. because it's
1:10:00
perfect. Sounds good. So
1:10:02
other than the fermented
1:10:04
yogurt, are you
1:10:07
consuming sauerkraut, kimchi, any other
1:10:09
fermented foods for the microbiome?
1:10:12
I don't, but I recommend those. I
1:10:14
just don't have the taste buds for it. See
1:10:17
what you need to do, one of the
1:10:19
things that I recommend in the book is
1:10:21
that you have to, the first step is
1:10:23
to recognize, okay, I am addicted to this,
1:10:25
this, this, this, and find
1:10:28
out what those things, and there are, you need
1:10:30
to find a substitute for them.
1:10:33
And there are delicious, wonderful, healthy substitutes
1:10:35
for all of those things you're addicted
1:10:38
to. I mean,
1:10:40
YouTube is a treasure trove of,
1:10:42
you know, low carb, healthy recipes
1:10:45
for low carb
1:10:47
keto bread, pasta, cereals, you know, all
1:10:50
the things that you're addicted to. So
1:10:52
right away, make your short list or
1:10:54
long list of things you're addicted to,
1:10:56
whether it's pizza, you can make a
1:10:59
grain free pizza if you, you know,
1:11:01
until you get off of all those things, and
1:11:04
then you make your transition. So
1:11:06
find the substitute right away so that you're
1:11:09
not, because you won't, most
1:11:11
people won't last. They say, oh my
1:11:13
God, how can I, how can I, you know, what am
1:11:15
I going to do? You know, I even joke in the
1:11:17
book, I say, after I tell them all this, they say,
1:11:20
okay, so if you're just finding this page
1:11:22
again, after throwing this book across the room
1:11:24
with a well chosen obscenity
1:11:26
aimed at the author, I
1:11:28
have good news. They're
1:11:31
wonderful substitutes you can have for all these
1:11:33
things you're addicted to. So that's your first
1:11:36
step. You got to find those delicious substitutes
1:11:38
to go, okay, so I'm doing it. And then
1:11:41
while you're doing it, your body is changing, your
1:11:43
taste buds are changing, your palate
1:11:45
will change and over a period
1:11:47
of time, you're not going to even want those
1:11:49
unhealthy things anymore. Right?
1:11:52
So last piece on the
1:11:54
microbiome, how do you feel about probiotics supplements?
1:11:58
Well I guess they're good, but you don't really need
1:12:00
them once you do this yogurt. I'm telling
1:12:02
you, I used to spend a lot of
1:12:04
money on these very expensive probiotics
1:12:09
where you can get them these days in
1:12:11
50 billion.
1:12:14
There are 5 billion, 10 billion, 50 billion.
1:12:16
When I say billion, they're called CFUs, colony-forming
1:12:19
units. But when you make the yogurt and
1:12:21
you just eat a half a cup a day, you're
1:12:24
getting like 260 billion, just in that
1:12:27
one. So you're getting plenty of all that and
1:12:29
it covers all of the, it heals everything else.
1:12:33
I'm just fine with that. So I don't
1:12:35
even bother buying those things anymore. The
1:12:40
yogurt is just really simple to make
1:12:42
too. It takes like five minutes to
1:12:44
throw together. I have all the instructions
1:12:46
and there's three ingredients and
1:12:49
you get them in there and and
1:12:51
it takes and you get an instant pot
1:12:53
or a yogurt maker and you do it for,
1:12:55
you have to ferment it for 36 hours.
1:12:59
And that's the miraculous part of
1:13:01
it because most or if not
1:13:03
all of the yogurts that you
1:13:05
buy commercially, they're only fermented for four
1:13:07
hours to speed up production. Where
1:13:09
you do 36 hours, it's
1:13:12
kind of like it goes
1:13:15
exponentially. It's not until
1:13:17
the last six hours where it goes,
1:13:19
if you look at the
1:13:21
graph, it's going across, they're building the CFUs and
1:13:23
then the last six hours, it goes like
1:13:26
this. And I have a graph that
1:13:28
is just like that, where it shows
1:13:30
that if you double the
1:13:33
penny every day for
1:13:35
a month, you're going
1:13:37
along, going along and you ask the little kids, hey, would you
1:13:39
like me to give you a penny? You
1:13:43
want me to give you a million dollars or
1:13:45
a penny every day for a month? Look
1:13:47
at all the million dollars. If you
1:13:49
double a penny every day, in the
1:13:52
last six days is when it goes from
1:13:54
a hundred thousand something down here, it goes
1:13:57
to 5,360,000. $38,000
1:14:00
and some change and all like that in
1:14:03
the last six days. So it's the same
1:14:05
thing in the last six hours of this
1:14:07
36 hours of fermenting.
1:14:11
That's the same thing kind of happened. So it's I
1:14:14
love that chart. I'm so proud
1:14:16
of it. How many days a week are you having the
1:14:18
yogurt? I do it every night after my dinner. Yeah,
1:14:22
I'll have it with some berries. Maybe I'll
1:14:24
throw in some of my homemade granola. I
1:14:28
found one that was pretty good at Costco. It
1:14:32
was grain-free, sugar-free, low
1:14:35
carb. I can't remember the name of it. So
1:14:37
I don't know. But if you can if
1:14:40
you're good at reading ingredients, you
1:14:42
know, you'll be in good hands. All
1:14:44
right. So we got the diet piece. Yeah.
1:14:47
We got the fasting piece. What about
1:14:49
other supplements? I quickly touched on probiotics
1:14:51
and it sounds like well not sounds
1:14:53
like now you're not having those because
1:14:55
you have the yogurt. Right. What about
1:14:58
other supplements? Well
1:15:00
I make sure I try to get all my basics in.
1:15:03
Even though I get everything that I need from
1:15:05
my meat and my eggs and
1:15:08
my you know my ancestral diet, there
1:15:10
are some things but there are some
1:15:14
vitamins and minerals that a lot
1:15:17
of people are deficient in such
1:15:19
as vitamin D and I
1:15:22
have a section in the book on
1:15:24
that vitamin mineral deficiencies
1:15:26
that the ones that are common. Not everybody
1:15:28
has it. But vitamin
1:15:31
D, certain kind of calciums that you want to get,
1:15:35
that kind of thing. But I'm not big on
1:15:37
taking a lot of supplements. Maybe
1:15:41
some alpha lipoic acid, a few things
1:15:43
like that. I take CoQ10 because I
1:15:45
am a heart patient. Right. And
1:15:48
I have to maintain
1:15:50
as much as I can. See, when you have a
1:15:52
heart attack, anybody that's had a heart attack and is
1:15:55
in my club, when
1:15:57
you have a heart attack, you have permanent damage to
1:15:59
your... your heart. No one
1:16:01
knows I was talking about this with Dr.
1:16:03
Vadia. And you know, no one
1:16:05
knows to what degree or how many weeks, months or
1:16:08
years is going to shave off your lifespan. So I
1:16:10
thought, Okay, so I know I have that. What
1:16:12
is it that I can't control? And I thought,
1:16:15
Well, I can control my metabolic health. I
1:16:17
can try to get into as superior
1:16:19
metabolic health as I possibly can. So
1:16:22
let me do that. And maybe I can, I don't
1:16:24
know, my theory is I can hopefully balance something
1:16:27
out so that I don't lose some of that
1:16:29
lifespan that because of the heart damage that I
1:16:31
do have. And
1:16:33
that kind of thing. But there, you know,
1:16:36
there is something that I would like to cover.
1:16:38
And I don't know if I mentioned this to
1:16:40
you before, there's a couple of studies, large studies
1:16:43
that they did
1:16:45
that it rocked, it totally rocked the
1:16:47
cardiovascular universe and the medical universe, because
1:16:49
they were failures. And I should tell
1:16:51
you about this, I think your audience
1:16:53
might like to hear it. Please, one
1:16:55
is called the ischemia trial.
1:16:57
There were three ischemia
1:17:00
was a large $100 million
1:17:05
federally funded study was about
1:17:07
52 almost 5200 people
1:17:09
that divided them into two groups. One
1:17:12
group got invasive procedures, namely cabbage,
1:17:14
which is CABG that's
1:17:17
coronary artery bypass graft, that's open
1:17:19
heart surgery with, you know, bypass
1:17:21
surgery, or stent
1:17:24
a set PCI percutaneous
1:17:26
coronary intervention, which is a stent. That's
1:17:30
the fancy long term for a stat, right PCI
1:17:32
so and that
1:17:34
and also maybe some, you know, blood pressure
1:17:36
medications, that kind of thing. Well, and then
1:17:38
the other group went direct in the direction
1:17:41
of lifestyle changes, get back to the gym,
1:17:43
stop eating the junk, all that kind of
1:17:45
thing. And maybe some, you know, blood pressure
1:17:47
meds, that kind of thing. And they followed
1:17:50
them closely for four years. And it
1:17:53
was a failure, they found no difference. There
1:17:56
was a ischemia trial failed
1:17:58
to show that, you know, was able
1:18:00
to, because what they wanted, they wanted to
1:18:02
show that this was the shit, this was
1:18:04
the deal. These are the basic procedures as
1:18:06
well. We really got to do because there
1:18:08
was so much revenue generated from
1:18:11
that. And there was another trial called
1:18:13
the Courage trial, similar kind of thing.
1:18:15
There was another one called the Orbiter
1:18:18
trial and they, they're
1:18:20
all failed. And so the headline of
1:18:23
all of it was cabbage
1:18:25
and stents do not prevent
1:18:27
heart attacks. They
1:18:29
don't. No more than, you know, so
1:18:31
if you want to go the direction of your lifestyle
1:18:35
and changes and so forth. So
1:18:37
after they experienced
1:18:40
this truly rocking information
1:18:43
and results from these trials, do
1:18:47
you think that the, these procedures would come
1:18:49
to a halt or at least slow down?
1:18:51
The graph is going like this. And it's
1:18:53
to the point now, I mean, let me make it
1:18:56
clear that these are valuable,
1:18:58
lifesaving interventions
1:19:01
in their emergency situations, right? So if you're having
1:19:03
a heart attack, you've got something else going on
1:19:05
that you're in the hospital for, if you get
1:19:07
the VTAC and those
1:19:10
are lifesaving interventions.
1:19:12
So, but they're only done 15% of the time. The other
1:19:14
85% are done for the prevention with
1:19:19
the cutting your chest open and the stents
1:19:21
and all that kind of thing. So that's
1:19:24
why they're unnecessary 85% of
1:19:27
the time. So I recommended the
1:19:29
book. I said, okay, so now that you know
1:19:32
this, and if your doctor's pointing you in this
1:19:34
direction, you got to bring this
1:19:36
up to him. And that way he'll know that you know.
1:19:40
And secondly, you can ask him, explain
1:19:42
to me again why we're doing this or why you
1:19:44
want me to do this when I
1:19:46
can do this other path and so on and so,
1:19:49
you know, so anyway, just be aware of that. I
1:19:52
have that all in chapter 17. It's
1:19:55
called skipping stents and bypass
1:19:57
surgery. And for
1:19:59
anybody that's really into the cardiovascular. I have chapter 17, 18,
1:20:01
19, and 20 statins. I got the
1:20:05
whole thing in there. It's
1:20:09
remarkable. There was a remarkable study
1:20:11
with regard to the statins. I
1:20:13
think you might like this. There
1:20:15
was this large study, meta-analyses.
1:20:18
It involved 92,135 patients. And the researchers wanted
1:20:21
to know, do statin takers extend their lives?
1:20:28
Because that's your doctor and certainly a
1:20:30
big pharma wants you to do it
1:20:32
once you start. How
1:20:34
much longer do the
1:20:36
statin takers extend their
1:20:39
lives? And they found out
1:20:41
that there were two groups
1:20:45
that were taking it for primary prevention.
1:20:47
In other words, no heart attack yet.
1:20:49
Because there's a lot
1:20:51
of people, there's a lot of guys and women, they
1:20:54
haven't had a heart attack, but they're taking it. They
1:20:57
lived a big three days longer than
1:20:59
those in the other group not taking
1:21:01
a statin. And those in the group
1:21:03
taking statins for secondary prevention. In other
1:21:05
words, they already had a heart attack.
1:21:07
They lived a big four days longer
1:21:11
than the other group taking the statin. So I asked my
1:21:13
readers in the book, I said, you still want to put
1:21:15
up with the nasty side effects of taking statins. And they
1:21:17
can be pretty nasty. Everything from psychosis
1:21:19
to road rage to aches and pains
1:21:22
and all kinds of things. Not everybody
1:21:24
gets those, but a lot of people
1:21:26
do. And so you got
1:21:28
to get the information because
1:21:31
you're not going to get the right information
1:21:33
from your doctors and your, you know, because
1:21:35
they get bonuses for
1:21:37
certain amount of quotas that they make for
1:21:39
all kinds of things. And I don't want
1:21:42
to bad mouth doctors because, you know, a
1:21:44
lot of them, they devote their lives to
1:21:46
saving us, you know, every day they're in
1:21:48
the emergency rooms. They're setting
1:21:50
the bone and suturing up the
1:21:54
wound and they're, you know, removing
1:21:56
bullets and steering wheels from our
1:21:58
chests. Right. So they're heroes,
1:22:00
even my older daughter Chloe is a PA
1:22:02
and she works in the emergency
1:22:04
room. So I love all of them because
1:22:06
they devote their lives to that. But when
1:22:08
it comes to the nutrition or biochemical end
1:22:10
of it, they're pretty
1:22:12
clueless because the medical field doesn't go
1:22:14
in that direction. There's
1:22:16
no profit in that. There's no money in that. So
1:22:19
we touched on supplements. I
1:22:22
know part of your health regime, you
1:22:24
talk about this in your book, is
1:22:26
testosterone injections and B12. Yeah.
1:22:30
Talk about that and
1:22:32
natural ways when it comes to testosterone that
1:22:35
we can help the men boost that if
1:22:37
they need it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. See,
1:22:39
what happens is I have a whole section in Chapter
1:22:41
14. I don't know if you've
1:22:43
gotten that far in the book. It's probably
1:22:45
eight pages on testosterone because what happens with
1:22:48
us men after the age of 30, I
1:22:51
have a graph that shows, you know, 30 and
1:22:53
then it starts going down. It
1:22:55
starts to decline approximately 1% a year after that.
1:22:59
And by the time you get to my age,
1:23:01
at least, you know, it's really going down. So
1:23:03
for several years, I've been, I found out about
1:23:05
this from another anti-aging doctor. This is prior to
1:23:09
my MI, myocardial infarction, also
1:23:11
known as a heart attack. And
1:23:14
I had been taking it probably 10 years
1:23:16
now or something. It really does make a
1:23:18
big difference. And you don't take it in
1:23:20
large body builder type dosages because, you know,
1:23:22
that can destroy your kidneys and your gonads
1:23:25
and it's just bad news. So you take
1:23:27
it in as little tiny dosages once a
1:23:29
week, once every 10 days, that kind of
1:23:31
thing. And it really does keep your
1:23:34
testosterone there because they found that,
1:23:37
you know, having low estrogen or
1:23:39
low hormones, testosterone,
1:23:42
that attracts the diseases of aging. And
1:23:44
let's see if I have that here. Yeah,
1:23:48
I have 10 testosterone tips in
1:23:51
it because you can do that. You can inject that.
1:23:54
But also I have these 10 tips. Oh,
1:23:57
here it is, testosterone. being
1:24:04
on a ketogenic diet, by the way, you
1:24:07
know, it does a lot for your testosterone levels
1:24:09
and I gave you what the level should be
1:24:11
and so on. And
1:24:14
10 testosterone tips. The first one says you don't
1:24:16
want low cholesterol because low
1:24:18
cholesterol is a precursor to
1:24:20
testosterone and you need cholesterol
1:24:22
to create
1:24:24
it, to create testosterone. And by the
1:24:26
way, when I told you about the GGT being
1:24:29
the life insurance company's
1:24:31
number one predictor of all-cause mortality, LDL
1:24:34
and high cholesterol don't even make it
1:24:36
onto their longevity
1:24:38
predictor list, right? So
1:24:41
and you don't need to ingest an excessive amount
1:24:43
of protein, go low
1:24:46
carb because the carbs
1:24:49
will raise your insulin levels and when
1:24:51
your insulin levels are up, you
1:24:54
not only have a lot more fat
1:24:56
on your body, but it
1:24:59
lowers your testosterone. And
1:25:02
then intermittent fasting that also raises
1:25:04
your HGH and wherever HGH flows,
1:25:06
that's human growth hormone, testosterone
1:25:09
follows. Exercise
1:25:12
that does it raises your T. You
1:25:15
want to avoid anything that has soy
1:25:17
or soybean oil like in mayo salad
1:25:20
dressings, diet foods, tofu, miso, protein powders,
1:25:22
fake meats and on and on. You
1:25:25
want to avoid all that. You
1:25:27
want to eat organic always because
1:25:29
the GMO and the pesticides are
1:25:31
endocrine disruptors and they can lower your
1:25:33
T over time. And
1:25:36
they even found there was a study,
1:25:38
number 10 shows never
1:25:40
eat a low fat diet. A new
1:25:42
2021 systematic review and meta analysis called
1:25:45
low fat diets and testosterone in men,
1:25:48
the researchers found there were significant
1:25:50
decreases in sex hormones, testosterone on
1:25:52
low fat versus high fat diets.
1:25:56
And they also reported that in the mid
1:25:58
20th century men's testosterone levels have declined
1:26:01
in Western countries. And I
1:26:03
say, what happened in mid 20th century?
1:26:05
That's when Ansel Keys and his crew,
1:26:07
along with the American Heart Association, started
1:26:09
pushing low-fat diets, all based on his
1:26:11
corrupted science called the Diet Heart Hypothesis.
1:26:14
And then I say, no wonder Viagra use has
1:26:16
exploded since 1998 when
1:26:19
it went from an accidental
1:26:21
medical mistake discovery to a
1:26:23
$3 billion a year industry.
1:26:25
So, yeah, you
1:26:27
wanna be able to keep your mind to it. Keep
1:26:30
your testosterone. And there's different things you can
1:26:32
do, like besides the exercise, the ketogenic diet,
1:26:34
live in ancestrally. I wanna say ancestrally, you
1:26:37
get a clue in that in my chapter
1:26:39
three. I
1:26:41
think it's called, it's called We're
1:26:44
Designed for a High-Fat, Low-Carb Diet. And I have
1:26:46
some pictures of them, Hunter Gather is there. I
1:26:49
have these three guys, the picture's from 1939. And
1:26:53
they were just ripped and chiseled and they, you know,
1:26:55
and I ask, I say, do you
1:26:57
think they're, you know, they're suffered from
1:27:00
carbohydrate overdose disorder? Say not
1:27:02
with those abs. And so
1:27:04
they're Hunter Gathers, they're Aborigines, you
1:27:06
know, Australia. And then I had this
1:27:08
other guy, this
1:27:10
picture was from 1900 and he's just, oh
1:27:13
my God, he's just ripped and chiseled like, I mean,
1:27:16
not like, you know, like some bodybuilder or something, because
1:27:18
it's very natural. There's no, I say, do you think
1:27:20
this guy had a fitness center near him in 1900?
1:27:24
Because, you know, this is just
1:27:27
how we all looked, because we
1:27:29
had a, you know, life was strenuous and
1:27:32
we had to work like hell to just
1:27:34
survive and our bodies got
1:27:36
to work out. And we didn't have any carbs,
1:27:38
sugar, oils, fruit juice and all the rest of
1:27:40
the stuff, right? So it was
1:27:42
very ancestral and that's what, you know,
1:27:46
myself and so many others are going
1:27:48
for, whether it's Dr. Ken Berry or
1:27:50
all the other geniuses on YouTube that
1:27:52
you've interviewed many of them, they're going
1:27:55
for the ancestral type diet. Dr.
1:27:57
Chris Canobie, you
1:27:59
know him. human or him, you interviewed
1:28:01
him, right? So he's got his latest
1:28:04
book, which is amazing, is
1:28:06
called the Ancestral Diet Revolution. And he's
1:28:08
got all that in there too. So
1:28:11
anyway, again, none of this
1:28:13
unholy trinity was in our humanoid diets
1:28:15
prior to 100 years ago, and
1:28:18
it's just deadly. All right. So
1:28:20
the unholy trinity again, coming back to the main
1:28:22
thesis here, we want to lower the carbs. We've
1:28:24
gotten into that. Sugar is pretty
1:28:27
self-explanatory. We touched on fruit dose and
1:28:29
we talked about fatty liver. So
1:28:31
we want to eliminate sugars, but
1:28:34
we haven't gotten into the seed oils too much. And
1:28:36
you brought up Chris Kenobi there. That's
1:28:38
his big thing. So
1:28:40
let's talk about that
1:28:42
going in depth on that, why we want
1:28:44
to avoid those. Yeah, Chris,
1:28:47
I got in touch with him.
1:28:49
In fact, he wrote me an
1:28:52
amazing endorsement for the book. I've got
1:28:54
some killer people that
1:28:56
have endorsed the book. So that's I'm really flattered
1:28:58
by that. And people
1:29:00
that you've, colleagues
1:29:02
of yours and people that you've interviewed, Nina
1:29:06
Tykholz, Chris Kenobi. I
1:29:10
even have Dr. Lou Ignaro, who won the Nobel
1:29:12
Prize in Medicine for his discovery of nitric oxide,
1:29:14
I have a whole section on that. He allowed
1:29:16
me to put a section of his book into
1:29:18
mind. So it was just a couple of pages,
1:29:21
but I've interviewed him as well. He's great. Yeah.
1:29:23
You know what I'm talking about there. Yeah. So
1:29:25
I was really fortunate to get these people in
1:29:27
there. And I, because I didn't know I'm a
1:29:29
first time author. I just, I
1:29:32
was attracted to all this to solve my own
1:29:34
problem. And then when I found all this
1:29:36
information, I thought, Oh my God, I've got to share this
1:29:38
with the world. And as many times as
1:29:40
my mind was blown, I try
1:29:43
to put that into the book. But with Dr.
1:29:45
Chris, he allowed me to
1:29:47
use some of his, a couple of his
1:29:49
graphs. I said, can I use that in the,
1:29:53
Yeah, sure. So I put that there.
1:29:55
I have a whole chapter, chapter
1:29:58
six. It's what is it called? It's called I
1:30:01
should know these by now, the shocking
1:30:03
truth about vegetable oils because, you know,
1:30:05
vegetables sounds healthy, right? But
1:30:08
they are so deadly that as
1:30:10
he will tell you, I
1:30:12
think that in time, these
1:30:15
seed oils are so dangerous, they will
1:30:17
be, they might even turn out to
1:30:19
be more deadly than the carbohydrates and
1:30:21
the sugars, the fine carbs and your
1:30:24
fine sugars, more
1:30:26
deadly than those. And so it
1:30:29
all started, well, they didn't exist
1:30:31
prior to, Dr. Chris
1:30:33
probably told you this in his interview, I don't know, I
1:30:35
haven't seen that one. But they
1:30:39
didn't exist prior to 1865. There
1:30:42
were these two guys that came from
1:30:45
Europe to Ohio, William
1:30:47
Campbell and James, I'm
1:30:49
sorry, William Proctor and James Gamble, which turned
1:30:51
out to be Proctor and Gamble. And
1:30:53
they made this thing called Crisco. And
1:30:57
it was made from cottonseed oil and up
1:30:59
to that point, cottonseed oil was made from
1:31:04
what was considered a toxic waste
1:31:06
from cottonseed farming. But
1:31:08
they looked at a bucket of it and they went,
1:31:10
hey, it looks like lard, why don't we use
1:31:12
it for cooking and sell it, we can
1:31:14
make money that way. And
1:31:17
so that's what happened, it started flying off the shelves in 1912.
1:31:21
Very coincident with the first time that the
1:31:23
first heart attack was ever officially
1:31:27
recorded. So these guys, they came
1:31:29
up with that and then it started flying off
1:31:31
the shelves and they're so deadly because there's
1:31:35
so many things in them, these
1:31:37
toxic ingredients, one is called
1:31:39
TBHQ. I can't remember the biochemical,
1:31:41
that's like a 64 letter word,
1:31:43
TBHQ. I
1:31:47
have that, what that is. And then
1:31:49
there's this 4HNE, hydroxygenolinol and
1:31:51
these other things that are in there,
1:31:53
they're neurodegenerative, they cause hyperphagia, which
1:31:56
is a medical term for overeating.
1:31:59
They got all of these. these, you know,
1:32:02
negative effects once
1:32:04
we eat them. And we've been eating them. I
1:32:07
mean, they did some blood tests for people. I think
1:32:09
it was, they found out that
1:32:11
in the last 50 years, the amount of
1:32:13
these because they store up in the fatty tissues of
1:32:15
the body of these oils. And
1:32:19
they found that there was an increase in the last
1:32:21
50 years of
1:32:23
about 40% of these oils
1:32:26
are found in the adipose tissue.
1:32:29
You know, by the way, they store up in
1:32:31
the fatty tissues just like street drugs,
1:32:34
you know, whether it's pot, LSD, morphine,
1:32:36
you know, all those fentanyl, all of
1:32:38
the store up in the fatty tissues
1:32:40
of the body. That's why people can
1:32:42
sometimes have these relapses or
1:32:44
they get high or again,
1:32:46
or they just are dull
1:32:49
or they cause hostility. There's certain things that
1:32:51
can, you know, you've got to get those
1:32:53
out of your system. These oils
1:32:55
store up just like that. And they can
1:32:57
affect you years later. So you got to
1:32:59
stop getting them into your
1:33:01
body right away. But
1:33:03
yeah, they're really deadly and historically,
1:33:07
there was poofus, which is
1:33:09
polyunsaturated fatty acids come in
1:33:11
Omega 3's and Omega 6.
1:33:14
These are dangerous Omega 6's which
1:33:16
do all the damage. Omega 3's are more
1:33:18
like from the fish and your salmon and
1:33:20
all that kind of thing, your beef, lots
1:33:23
of Omega 3's there. And
1:33:25
the ratio throughout recorded history
1:33:27
of these evolutionarily developed
1:33:29
human bodies was usually like one to
1:33:32
one, no higher than three to one.
1:33:35
Now it's more like 20 to one in
1:33:37
the human diet in this standard
1:33:40
American diet. 20 Omega 6 to 1 Omega 3
1:33:44
and it's just been throwing everything off. And,
1:33:46
you know, it's a source of a
1:33:48
lot of cancers. And even here it
1:33:52
says, in 2018 the World Cancer
1:33:54
Congress and the journal
1:33:56
of global oncology, they
1:33:59
presented this system. And they show the direct strong
1:34:01
link and connections to breast cancer, colorectal,
1:34:04
pancreatic, mouth
1:34:08
larynx esophagus, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,
1:34:10
ovarian, prostate, all these different
1:34:13
cancers are directly related
1:34:15
to these vegetative, vegetable seed oils. So
1:34:18
it's just, it's, they're not just a little bit
1:34:20
of a problem. He talked about
1:34:22
the fact that they get incorporated in the
1:34:24
body and they stay there for prolonged periods
1:34:26
of time. Yeah. Other
1:34:30
than stopping today and not consuming them, have you come across
1:34:32
any ways of getting them out of the body quicker? Yeah,
1:34:37
you can do a, like people sign up
1:34:39
for what's called a purification program where
1:34:41
you go, it's a, it's a very, very, very good, very
1:34:44
good, very good, very good, and then you
1:34:46
can do that, like
1:34:48
people sign up for what's called a purification
1:34:50
program where you go, it's a, it's a,
1:34:53
it's a program where you throw the body
1:34:55
into saunas and you sweat out and there's
1:34:57
a lot of, it's very highly
1:34:59
monitored with a doctor and so forth.
1:35:02
And you, you know, you spend time
1:35:04
in there and you replenish with certain
1:35:07
salt and potassium because if you sweat
1:35:11
too much, then you can lose
1:35:13
a lot of that and you want to restore
1:35:15
all that. It's, it's very well monitored. So you
1:35:17
do all that and you can get those out
1:35:19
of it. What it does is it causes those
1:35:21
poisons to escape the fatty tissues,
1:35:23
goes into the bloodstream and you sweat
1:35:25
it out. But
1:35:28
anyway, there are things like that. I
1:35:30
don't cover that in the book, but you just
1:35:32
want to make sure you avoid that. Get into
1:35:34
a sweat program, make sure you're working out where
1:35:36
you're getting some sweat going. You want to make
1:35:38
sure you do that. Yeah, he was a lot,
1:35:40
he allowed me to use a couple
1:35:42
of his graphs that are, see in my book, I
1:35:46
have a lot of images and graphs and
1:35:48
charts. It makes it easier for the
1:35:50
reader to understand better. I mean, they
1:35:52
can understand when they see
1:35:54
the obesity graph going like this
1:35:56
and it started right where the
1:35:59
food pyramid is. it started and
1:36:01
you know, things like that. So they can under,
1:36:03
oh yeah, wow, I really get that. And so,
1:36:05
um, I like to use a lot of graphs
1:36:08
and charts and images and so forth. So people
1:36:10
can really understand it's not just dense
1:36:13
paragraphs of information. So
1:36:15
I like to break it up and
1:36:17
so that it's more easily assimilated, more
1:36:19
easily digested, so to speak. And
1:36:22
you talked about the sweat programs that you can
1:36:24
go through to get these oils out of the
1:36:26
body quicker. Have you done one of
1:36:28
those? And after your heart attack,
1:36:30
when you were, you know,
1:36:33
re changing your whole lifestyle around for
1:36:36
the better, are there
1:36:38
any other baseline protocols
1:36:40
like that you did to reset
1:36:42
things before you
1:36:44
adopted what we've talked about today? Well,
1:36:46
the main thing is that I went low carb,
1:36:49
Tito. Um, I wanted
1:36:51
to go like our ancestors did.
1:36:54
I thought, because on my
1:36:56
website, danieltrevor.com, you can see if you scroll
1:36:58
down, I have a video
1:37:00
there, seven minute video that tells my story and all
1:37:02
that, and then if you scroll down past the, all
1:37:05
the endorsements and so forth, uh,
1:37:08
I have some images of my new
1:37:10
hunter gatherer physique. And I
1:37:12
just want to tell you, I didn't have any of that going
1:37:14
on prior to it. I
1:37:16
mean, I, you know, I, it
1:37:19
doesn't matter your age. You just, you just going to
1:37:21
look like a, one of the guys that had pictures
1:37:23
that I have in the book in chapter three, it
1:37:25
was just guy, he's got gray hair, but he's got
1:37:27
these six pack. What? So
1:37:30
I just try to emulate that.
1:37:32
What did our forefathers, how
1:37:34
did they eat? What were their
1:37:36
bodies like? They had healthy microbiomes.
1:37:39
They, you know, they were just very healthy
1:37:42
specimens of human beings. And
1:37:44
so I try to emulate that and, you know, I
1:37:46
just make sure that I get sweating
1:37:48
to the point at the gym where I'm,
1:37:50
where I am sweating, where I am releasing
1:37:52
this kind of thing, and
1:37:55
I'm getting those, any poisons out of
1:37:57
my, out of my system. So.
1:38:00
you make the transition and you want to watch
1:38:02
out for some of the foods. You want to
1:38:04
watch out for, let's say, when
1:38:07
you're getting olive oil,
1:38:09
you want to make sure it's been corrupted so
1:38:11
much. It's like 80% of it out
1:38:13
there has been, it's just, they
1:38:16
use a little bit of olive oil in the bottle
1:38:18
and the rest of it is like some cheap soybean
1:38:20
oil or cottonseed oil, that kind of thing. But
1:38:23
so you really got to do your investigation, make sure
1:38:25
it's an authentic, maybe a little more
1:38:27
expensive, but hey, it's safe. It's,
1:38:29
and you got to watch out, don't eat
1:38:31
any of the meatless meats or veggie burgers,
1:38:34
because those are loaded with these
1:38:36
seed oils. You know, it's like the second ingredient.
1:38:40
You know, just like wheat, they put wheat in everything.
1:38:44
Wheat, check out this stat. The
1:38:47
average supermarket has 60,000 products. 59,000
1:38:52
contain wheat or some form of
1:38:54
wheat. Even
1:38:57
Twizzlers, the candy, the second ingredient is
1:38:59
wheat. Remember I told you about how
1:39:01
it turns on this gliadin, which, you
1:39:03
know, stimulates the opiate receptors in the
1:39:05
brain. So they're really coming after our
1:39:07
opiate receptors. And with the same thing
1:39:09
with these seed oils, they're
1:39:11
deadly. They're putting it into everything. Just,
1:39:14
you know, everything from
1:39:16
mayonnaise to salad dressings and,
1:39:18
you know, everything down the,
1:39:21
up and down the aisles, the soups, the this,
1:39:23
to that, the crackers, the cookies, you're
1:39:25
going to find some seed oils in all of them. So sorry,
1:39:28
I know that's bad news, but
1:39:32
anyway, that's the thing is thing with that,
1:39:34
that you want to avoid the meatless
1:39:36
meats and the veggie burgers, because they're just loaded
1:39:39
with that crap. You've brought
1:39:41
up olive oil a couple of times when
1:39:43
it comes to supplementing the diet you've
1:39:45
already talked about. What
1:39:47
different oils in the plant realm
1:39:50
and animal things like olive oil,
1:39:52
tallow, coconut oil, what
1:39:54
do you use? The only thing I
1:39:56
use is mostly butter. I don't, you
1:39:58
know, I don't, I don't make myself. salads anymore.
1:40:01
I'm not a salad guy, so I don't
1:40:03
need a salad dressing. I was listening
1:40:07
to Dr. Kenobi,
1:40:09
Dr. Chris, and he was saying that he
1:40:11
uses for his salad dressing if he makes
1:40:13
a salad, he'll use
1:40:15
melted butter. He says, it tastes
1:40:17
great. I know it's safe because
1:40:20
it's pasture raised butter, that kind of thing. So
1:40:22
I thought, well, if I'm going to make salads
1:40:25
again, I'm going to do that because I don't buy
1:40:27
olive oil. The only oil that I get into my
1:40:33
body is the powder that I have,
1:40:36
the MCT oil powder that
1:40:38
I put into my coffee, only because
1:40:40
it creates ketones, helps suppress appetite, and
1:40:42
so on. So that's the
1:40:44
only oil I do. It's butter for me. I
1:40:47
put butter in my coffee, maybe
1:40:49
some heavy whipping
1:40:51
cream, because again, fats
1:40:54
do not break your fast. So you can
1:40:56
get away with that. The
1:40:58
only thing that breaks your fast is the carbohydrates
1:41:00
and the protein. So you don't want to have
1:41:03
any smoothies or protein shakes or anything because that's
1:41:05
going to break your fast. You
1:41:07
only want fats. One
1:41:09
of the other items that comes up as
1:41:11
a constant controversy even today is salt. Do
1:41:14
you salt your meat? How do you feel about salt as
1:41:16
part of a healthy diet? I do a
1:41:19
lot of salt. Yeah. I have a,
1:41:21
I don't know, in the back
1:41:23
of the book, I have, there's
1:41:25
a section, what do I call it, please do pass the
1:41:28
salt because there was a whole
1:41:30
false information that came out, I think back
1:41:33
in Congress in the 70s,
1:41:35
they came up with this whole thing of the salt
1:41:37
is dangerous and everything. And it's not, it's a bunch
1:41:39
of bullshit. So anyway,
1:41:42
no, we, our bodies need salt. We
1:41:44
always had salt. Anyway,
1:41:47
I go into
1:41:50
that in that section, but
1:41:52
you know, you can feel free to use the
1:41:54
salt, but I would prefer you use the, what's
1:41:57
called the Himalayan salt that's
1:41:59
been And, you know, because that
1:42:01
was under, for centuries,
1:42:04
that was underwater for a long time.
1:42:07
And then when it, you know, from
1:42:09
Himalayas, everything, you know, all the
1:42:11
water went away, and they
1:42:13
left these massive deposits of
1:42:15
salt. And it's very good for you. It
1:42:17
has all these amazing, amazing minerals
1:42:19
in it that are really good for
1:42:22
you. And so
1:42:24
you don't need to back off from that. I mean, I
1:42:26
don't, I stay away from the salt that's the, you know,
1:42:28
in the restaurants, that kind of thing. So
1:42:30
what I do is if I go out to
1:42:32
someplace and I, you know, I even
1:42:34
recommend this in book, I said, bring some of your own
1:42:37
salad dressing that you know is healthy.
1:42:41
Bring some of your own salt, get a little, you know,
1:42:43
a little tiny thingy, so you can put it on there.
1:42:46
But yeah, I just used the Himalayan
1:42:48
salt, or the pink salt. There's
1:42:50
another brand, I don't know, I don't have any
1:42:52
connection to any of the brands, but you know,
1:42:55
just something that has a lot of minerals in
1:42:57
it, that is very natural for your
1:42:59
body. And it makes
1:43:01
your food taste better too. Earlier,
1:43:03
when we talked about intermittent fasting,
1:43:06
you talked about the fact that you like to
1:43:08
go 18 hours to get
1:43:10
that autophagy benefit. I'm
1:43:13
curious, do you ever push the fast
1:43:15
beyond that period, doing like a day
1:43:17
or multiple day fast to
1:43:20
go deeper into that autophagy? I
1:43:22
do once or twice a month, I'll do 24
1:43:24
hours. Not because
1:43:27
I plan it, it's just because if I
1:43:29
get busy, I go, I
1:43:31
don't have time for that today, I got to be
1:43:33
on the road and or this or that. And
1:43:35
I just skip it. Because again, I'm
1:43:38
ketogenic, these bodies
1:43:40
I'm used to ancestrally,
1:43:42
only eating once a day if that
1:43:44
right, none of us are used to eating three
1:43:46
or four times a day. So anyway, so I
1:43:48
get I do that within a breeze. And so
1:43:51
I'll do one day, I don't do the multiple
1:43:53
days. Some people are big believers
1:43:55
in that. I just I don't know, I
1:43:57
just don't do it. Because what
1:43:59
I do is I. I
1:44:02
take care to keep an eye on my blood
1:44:04
levels. Every six months, I'm always checking
1:44:06
my blood levels of everything. What
1:44:09
you're going to find in the book is that's
1:44:11
part of the brilliant part. If
1:44:14
you're not testing, especially after you're
1:44:16
age 40 or you're
1:44:18
heavier and younger, depending on your
1:44:20
weight and everything, you got to be testing
1:44:23
because if you don't test, it's like driving
1:44:25
down the road without a speedometer or a
1:44:27
steering wheel and you will crash into something.
1:44:29
You're going, wow, how did this happen to me? Because
1:44:32
there's no symptoms again, right? There's no symptoms. I mean,
1:44:34
it happened to me. It was like, how did this
1:44:36
happen? In my book, you
1:44:39
can find out what are the most important
1:44:41
blood lasses scans to find out if you've
1:44:43
got something lurking that you got to take care of,
1:44:45
that you can't ignore, or you're going to
1:44:47
wind up like mom and dad, whatever happened to them
1:44:49
that may be in your genetics and that kind of
1:44:51
thing. You got to get
1:44:53
these tests on. So I keep a real
1:44:55
good eye on all of that and
1:44:58
I make sure that everything is in
1:45:00
good. In the
1:45:02
conclusion of the book, I tell the
1:45:04
reader, I say, look, in chapter
1:45:06
22, there can be what seems
1:45:08
to be a dizzying array of tests to
1:45:10
choose from. So I break it
1:45:12
down with Dr. Ford Brewer's imprimatur,
1:45:15
his permission. I said, look, I want to just
1:45:17
give him five to do it. If they were
1:45:19
going to choose five blood labs, these are the
1:45:22
five. Number
1:45:24
one is the OGTT with insulin because you
1:45:26
got to find out if you're pre-diabetic or
1:45:28
diabetic and where you are in the diabetic
1:45:30
spectrum. And then there's others
1:45:33
that have to do with inflammation,
1:45:35
arterial inflammation, and inflammation in
1:45:37
general in the body. And
1:45:40
because that's where it all
1:45:43
starts. There's one called myeloperoxidase,
1:45:45
MPO, LP-Plac2,
1:45:48
MACR, microvium and creatinine ratio. These
1:45:51
are basically what I call smoke
1:45:53
detectors. These are what
1:45:55
tell you that, hey, you've
1:45:57
got some plaque being built up.
1:46:00
were already there sub
1:46:02
endothelial below the artery. And
1:46:04
if it's if it's elevated, that's what it tells
1:46:07
you. And so that's, you know,
1:46:09
all of my markers were way out of
1:46:11
whack when I first did all my testing
1:46:13
when I first did everything after
1:46:15
I had my heart attack. And then
1:46:17
over time, you start getting them down into the
1:46:19
right levels. And you get rid
1:46:21
of the inflammation, because the inflammation is what
1:46:23
causes the heart attacks and the strokes and
1:46:26
the Alzheimer's and so many other things. So
1:46:29
you gotta it's like Dr. Ford calls
1:46:31
his chapter 22. Don't guess test. I
1:46:36
feel like conventional wisdom still at this point
1:46:39
feels like type two diabetes when you get
1:46:41
it is something you have for life. You
1:46:44
mentioned the fact that you were type two
1:46:46
diabetic when you got into the mess of
1:46:48
health complications here. I assume
1:46:51
now you're not diabetic
1:46:54
or pre diabetic and you brought that back
1:46:56
down to normal range. Talk
1:46:58
about where you're at now
1:47:00
and how quickly you got it there. Because
1:47:02
I think giving people hope that
1:47:05
they can actually do something is an important
1:47:07
piece of all this. Yeah, the fact that somebody
1:47:09
has been through this and brought it back
1:47:11
to normal. No, listen, yeah,
1:47:13
look, I, this book
1:47:15
was written from because I'm not a doctor
1:47:17
or scientist. I'm a citizen scientist. I've studied
1:47:20
technical data throughout my life is you probably
1:47:22
see in my my resume
1:47:24
there. But I
1:47:28
this book was written from the viewpoint of one of
1:47:30
the victims of the false
1:47:32
data and fake science voice that
1:47:35
upon the populations and their doctors
1:47:37
for way too many decades. Most
1:47:39
doctors are clueless on a lot
1:47:41
of this information. I even
1:47:43
in my chapter 19, I have some information I
1:47:45
should probably cover in a sec. That
1:47:48
is just brand new, which is in 2021 and 2022, which is
1:47:50
like 10 minutes ago in the medical field, because
1:47:55
it takes so long for the information to get
1:47:57
not only to the front lines of the doctors,
1:47:59
but it's to the curriculum of the medical
1:48:01
schools is just crazy. So
1:48:03
what I did was I did all
1:48:05
this testing that I found out. Um, I
1:48:07
became a friend of Dr. Ford Brewer after
1:48:10
I reached out to him. I said, look,
1:48:13
you know, I like what you're doing.
1:48:15
Cause he had these really complicated, when he first
1:48:17
started out several years ago, he had these videos
1:48:19
on YouTube that were really complicated. And,
1:48:22
uh, but I was able to follow him cause
1:48:24
I knew how to look things up and do
1:48:26
how to analyze information. And,
1:48:28
uh, so I followed a lot of his things that
1:48:30
I got to know all of these things and what
1:48:32
happens in a heart attack, you know, where you
1:48:35
have this. Build up
1:48:37
of the soft dangerous plaque, which
1:48:40
is the plaque that's sub endothelial
1:48:42
underneath the arteries that, uh, causes
1:48:44
the heart attacks and strokes or
1:48:47
biggest killer strokes
1:48:49
are the biggest, um, the number
1:48:51
one cause of permanent disability. And
1:48:54
what happens is after a
1:48:56
certain time, the plaque, the
1:48:59
soft inflamed dangerous plaque will
1:49:01
rupture through the already
1:49:04
damaged endothelial of the artery. It
1:49:06
enters the lumen where the blood flows. It
1:49:10
touches blood, creates a
1:49:12
clot. If it breaks, it then
1:49:14
breaks off. It goes downstream, so to speak. And if it
1:49:16
goes to your heart, you have a heart attack. If it
1:49:18
goes to your brain, you have a stroke, which
1:49:21
tells you right away that it can be in various
1:49:23
different places in your body. It's not just in your
1:49:25
heart. So this can happen.
1:49:27
So that's what happened to me. So
1:49:30
breaks off, goes downstream, goes your heart. You have a heart
1:49:32
attack goes, you're bringing you have a stroke. So learning
1:49:36
all of these, you got to
1:49:38
check your MPO, myeloperoxidase, Lp plaque
1:49:40
to the M C M a
1:49:42
CR, the micro Bemid creatinine, creatinine ratio will
1:49:44
tell how much damage you have to the endothelial
1:49:46
of your lining and that kind of thing.
1:49:48
There are other markers too, but at least those
1:49:51
three, and you get
1:49:53
all of those done. And I, you
1:49:55
know, very quickly, Once
1:49:57
I Found out about the carbs and the sugar.
1:50:00
The Know oils. Within.
1:50:02
A matter of months I was to bring be
1:50:04
able to bring all of my levels down because
1:50:06
you know I got a lot of you says
1:50:08
because I wanted to know the good, the bad,
1:50:10
the ugly and what I needed to fix, right?
1:50:13
sort of the benchmarks for good measure in the
1:50:15
future. Six. Months down the line,
1:50:17
my progress. And so
1:50:19
and then I. you know I
1:50:21
did all those and all I
1:50:24
got my cardiovascular of levels. In
1:50:27
or to a safe range. And
1:50:29
then I got mine diabetes under
1:50:31
control. Our. Because I found out
1:50:33
what that was all about with the glucose
1:50:35
in the insulin and I was hyper insulin
1:50:37
he me and that was the cause of
1:50:39
the of the diabetes which was the cause
1:50:41
of the cardiovascular disease. If you can have
1:50:43
heart disease. without having
1:50:45
some level of diabetes. Meters.
1:50:48
Of Craft. Discovered that back in the
1:50:50
eighties. He had a book called the
1:50:52
Diabetic. Epidemic and you.
1:50:55
And he had his code was a dumb.
1:50:59
Those. With cardiovascular disease,
1:51:01
not identified with diabetes
1:51:03
or simply undiagnosed. His.
1:51:08
Research was verified and twenty fifteen
1:51:10
decades later that this is this
1:51:12
a he was rights because he
1:51:14
had done thousands of autopsies and
1:51:16
he discovered that the process of
1:51:18
diabetes was Afl or a school
1:51:21
Roddick it was in the veins.
1:51:23
So anyway I had reverse my
1:51:25
type two diabetes. I had
1:51:27
gotten. You know, My. Cardiovascular.
1:51:31
Markers way under Control was
1:51:33
beautiful. And then my. The
1:51:36
My are the things that I
1:51:39
have. Chapter Thirteen One Osteopenia nos
1:51:41
you of roses. I was able
1:51:43
to reverse that to. Ah,
1:51:45
I'm because it's hitting people. These things
1:51:48
are hitting people younger and younger. And
1:51:50
fact, in chapter thirteen this one osteopenia
1:51:52
your bros is. there
1:51:55
is a study i have where it shows
1:51:57
that between thirty five and fifty year olds
1:51:59
they're fine these things. And that's
1:52:01
why I say, look, you got to get a DEXA scan
1:52:03
and tell your doc you want a DEXA scan. And if
1:52:05
he tells you you're too young, show him this study. But
1:52:09
they're finding these things, osteopenia and osteoporosis
1:52:11
between ages of 35 and 50. And
1:52:15
then my non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, oh
1:52:17
my God, I was able to
1:52:19
reverse that. It took a long time. Why
1:52:21
it took me a long time, I don't
1:52:23
know, because there are studies that show that
1:52:25
if you do a strict keto diet, you
1:52:28
can get over your non-alcoholic fatty liver disease,
1:52:30
which is very dangerous, in
1:52:32
a matter of a couple of weeks, a month, that kind
1:52:34
of thing. So mine,
1:52:36
it took two years. But
1:52:40
I went from 265, which was outrageous, it's
1:52:42
supposed to be under 65, right? And then
1:52:44
I'm down to 210. And then I would
1:52:46
check it every few months. It kept coming
1:52:49
down, coming down, coming down. And
1:52:51
I don't know why it took that long,
1:52:53
but at least I got it back down
1:52:55
into the healthy range. And
1:52:58
so it's all reversible. I keep
1:53:01
an eye on all those labs. That's why they're
1:53:03
so vitally important for you to, first of all,
1:53:05
you got to find out your starting point. If
1:53:09
you're overweight or obese, or you've got some things
1:53:11
going on, you got to
1:53:13
get these blood tests and scans. And
1:53:16
then that's why in chapter 19, which I want to
1:53:18
come to, which I said I wanted to come to,
1:53:20
is because there's a big
1:53:22
difference between soft dangerous plaque and
1:53:25
what's called calcified plaque. And
1:53:27
these new studies that I have in there, they're from
1:53:30
Cleveland Clinic, which
1:53:33
is ranks number one globally
1:53:35
for cardiovascular care, and
1:53:37
American College of Cardiology, which
1:53:39
ranks number one in cardiology
1:53:42
school and research, right? So
1:53:44
these are not like small universities
1:53:46
or something doing this. So anyway,
1:53:48
the first day showed
1:53:51
the I have a graph in this and shows where
1:53:53
the, the soft plaque causes
1:53:55
all the events, the heart
1:53:57
attacks, the strokes. And then when you have a
1:54:00
have the calcified plaque, and
1:54:02
you would detect that by the way with this test
1:54:05
called the CAC scan. That
1:54:07
stands for coronary
1:54:10
artery calcium score or scan,
1:54:12
and then you get a
1:54:14
score, CAC scan score. And
1:54:17
it's supposed to be between zero and 400. It
1:54:21
can go higher than that, of course, but you
1:54:23
want it as close to zero as you want. And
1:54:25
what's Cleveland Clinic, and again, these are the
1:54:27
top, they're researching. This is just, what, 2022.
1:54:32
And that's why a lot of cardiologists don't even know this, and I'm
1:54:34
so glad I was able to get it into the book. This is
1:54:37
chapter 19. What
1:54:40
they say is that, yeah, this is a
1:54:42
good test, but the reason why you want
1:54:44
to pay attention to it is because we
1:54:46
have found, same thing with
1:54:48
the American College of Cardiology, that there is, when
1:54:51
you have a certain score that's a positive score, let's
1:54:53
say 200, 300, 400, you
1:54:57
have four times as much soft
1:54:59
dangerous plaque as you
1:55:01
do the calcified plaque. So
1:55:04
that's the dangerous thing. It's not the calcified
1:55:06
plaque because the body lays down calcium to
1:55:08
heal. So here's
1:55:11
a perfect example. I'm a perfect example.
1:55:13
They have this thing called, they call
1:55:16
it the CAC paradox or the plaque
1:55:18
density paradox. What is that? And
1:55:22
it's a paradox, not to the doctors
1:55:24
and researchers, but they say it's going to be
1:55:26
a paradox to the patient because they're not going
1:55:28
to understand. And here's why. When
1:55:31
I first got my first CAC scan, it was
1:55:33
an abysmal 600. So I knew
1:55:35
I was in big trouble. And
1:55:38
then I thought, well, okay, so a year later, year
1:55:40
and a half, I'm going to get another one. And
1:55:43
during that time, I went low carb. I did,
1:55:45
you know, back to hitting the gym more and doing
1:55:47
all the things that I'm doing that I have in
1:55:50
my book. And
1:55:52
what they're saying is that it can
1:55:54
increase as you get better because you're
1:55:56
healing, you're laying down more calcium. I'm
1:55:59
the perfect example. mine went from 600 to
1:56:02
over 2,500. And
1:56:05
that's why a lot of doctors, especially Ford Brewer,
1:56:07
he says, look, we don't even tell people after
1:56:09
they've gone through it, they've lost 30 pounds and
1:56:11
they've gotten healthy. Don't do it because we're gonna
1:56:13
have to talk you off the ledge. That's
1:56:17
why you have to do a battery
1:56:19
of tests. That way you can confirm
1:56:21
that although my CAC scan is now
1:56:23
at 2,500, hey, my soft
1:56:26
plaque has been transformed. I don't have any.
1:56:29
It's just, and all my other markers, my
1:56:31
MPO, my F2
1:56:33
isoprostanes, LpPlex2, all these markers
1:56:35
are just in a beautiful range. And that's why you
1:56:37
just don't want to do one marker
1:56:40
of tests, but you do
1:56:42
several and you verify all
1:56:44
that. And
1:56:46
so that's why it can't
1:56:49
just depend on your
1:56:52
CAC scan, but
1:56:54
they call it the calcium paradox or
1:56:57
the plaque density paradox.
1:56:59
Because you
1:57:01
got to understand the second
1:57:03
one you get, the first one, if you get a
1:57:05
high score, you're in trouble and you got to get
1:57:07
on it right away. But
1:57:10
after taking a year or so,
1:57:12
and I had found out about this by the time
1:57:14
I did the second one, I thought, well, let me
1:57:16
see what, how high mine is. And
1:57:19
it was like 2,500. But then I confirmed with
1:57:21
all the other testing that I
1:57:23
was in beautiful shape. So that's
1:57:26
the long explanation to that. But chapter 19
1:57:28
is going to be, I think I even
1:57:30
have something in there that says something like
1:57:33
a parentheses. If this is new
1:57:35
to your doctor, this
1:57:38
is cutting edge data. A lot of them don't
1:57:40
even know yet. So anyway, like
1:57:43
that. Really important info. Thank you for doing
1:57:45
that. And Daniel, I
1:57:47
want to touch on one more thing before
1:57:49
I let you go. And early in our
1:57:51
conversation, the stress test came up and there
1:57:53
was some controversy over it. And
1:57:55
then we got on to other things. So I want
1:57:57
to come back to that, close that loop. Yeah. And
1:58:00
then we'll part ways. Well, I'll tell you
1:58:02
the stress test. The
1:58:05
reason why you don't want to sign up for that is
1:58:08
because, you know, the stress
1:58:12
test, you can you can pass the stress
1:58:14
test with flying colors and still have a
1:58:16
heart attack. That was
1:58:18
a newscaster guy that he he
1:58:20
yet he was very popular every Sunday morning. He
1:58:23
had this show called meet the press and
1:58:26
he passed his stress test and then wound up dying
1:58:28
of a heart attack. And
1:58:30
then there was the comedian and actor
1:58:32
Gary Shandling. I love that guy. He's
1:58:34
fantastic, right? He passed his
1:58:37
stress test with flying colors. He had died of a
1:58:39
heart attack. There was this
1:58:41
guy, Davy Jones, who was the, you
1:58:44
know, he was the lead singer of that old
1:58:46
group from the sixties and seventies called the monkeys.
1:58:49
I don't expect you to remember them, but I do. And
1:58:53
then there was Alex Trebek who had the game show.
1:58:56
He passed his stress test and
1:58:58
all these guys who passed the stress test, he
1:59:00
had a heart attack. A
1:59:02
year or two later, he was taken by pancreatic
1:59:05
cancer, sadly. But you know, there's so many people
1:59:07
that have passed their stress test with flying colors
1:59:09
and they go on to have the heart attack.
1:59:11
That was me. I passed
1:59:13
by. That's what I was going to say. You too.
1:59:15
Yeah, that was my, yeah, I passed the stress test
1:59:17
with flying colors and I still had the heart attack.
1:59:20
And the reason for that is to really close the loop and
1:59:22
I have this in the book too. And
1:59:24
this is new to a lot of doctors because the doctors
1:59:26
will go and they do the
1:59:28
stress test and they'll go, ah, well, you know, I'd like
1:59:31
to take a closer look. And then they, the closer look
1:59:33
means they want to take you into the cath lab. You
1:59:36
don't want to do that. So the reason
1:59:38
why people can, I mean,
1:59:40
here's the thing. If
1:59:42
celebrities with the, all
1:59:45
the money that, or the best medical
1:59:47
attention that the money can buy, this
1:59:50
can happen to them. Just imagine how much, how
1:59:52
often it happens to the regular person. What
1:59:56
happens is when you do a stress test,
1:59:58
the only way you can... potentially
2:00:01
detect any kind of problem.
2:00:03
And by the way, before I said this, Dr.
2:00:05
Ford Brewer even had a book. It
2:00:08
was called prevention myths. Why
2:00:11
stress tests can't predict your heart
2:00:13
attack and which tests actually do.
2:00:17
So he's even got a book on that and he explains
2:00:19
this in there too. Uh,
2:00:21
what happens is the only
2:00:24
way to detect anything that the stress test will
2:00:26
be able to detect anything is if there's at
2:00:28
least 50% blockage in
2:00:30
your arteries, at least 50%. However,
2:00:35
over 70% of all the
2:00:37
heart attacks that occur, occur
2:00:39
with less than 50%. It's
2:00:42
like, what are we doing here? What's the point?
2:00:45
Why don't, you know, if I know that now,
2:00:47
you know that, why don't the doctors know that,
2:00:49
but they just don't get it. Um,
2:00:52
I guess that, you know, some of those studies are
2:00:54
just, and then again, I
2:00:56
think I go back to, and look, I'm not
2:00:58
pointing any fingers, but there's such an enormous amount
2:01:00
of money made in what's
2:01:03
called the wicked triangle, the stress tests,
2:01:07
uh, with the calf lab. And then you wind up
2:01:09
with this debt. I call it the wicked triangle. The
2:01:12
book, right? Chapter 17. There's
2:01:14
such an enormous amount of money made
2:01:16
from those three. There's no way that
2:01:19
CEOs of hospitals and cardiology clinics
2:01:21
are going to see that evaporate
2:01:23
because there goes their mountain
2:01:26
retreat and the kids in Ivy league and
2:01:28
the beach house, and they're going to have
2:01:30
the downsides. I mean, you
2:01:32
know, a lot of careers in institutions
2:01:34
would disappear. There's
2:01:38
your, uh, there's
2:01:40
your answer right there to the, uh, wrapping up
2:01:42
the stress tests. All
2:01:45
right. Well, thank you for that really important
2:01:47
information. And Daniel, I just
2:01:49
