0:00

Bap, bap, bap. The reason I am

0:02

scrambling to start

0:04

this podcast is your fault. I'm sorry.

0:07

Good. I have no clue what's going on. Because

0:10

what you have done, which is a miracle

0:13

and a nightmare, is first

0:15

of all, you're like a celebrity to me. Like,

0:18

no one's famous to me. Well,

0:20

I just, I, you're the person, I

0:22

go to sleep watching your videos. Like you

0:25

talk

0:26

horrors into my ear as I go to sleep

0:28

every night. Like your voice

0:31

is also so soothing, weirdly. Like you're so

0:33

calmly saying the most

0:34

horrific things. Well, you're welcome. I mean,

0:36

I live in a house in Mississauga, so I don't know where

0:38

this is coming from. Yeah, no, but I like, I'm

0:40

like seeing you in person. It's like I now, I

0:43

feel like I haven't,

0:44

I don't know, I've been in this business for so long. It's

0:47

rare that I am a fan of someone that I

0:49

get to meet them and like geek out a little bit. But

0:51

you've changed my life so dramatically.

0:54

And I've thrown away most of my hair products

0:57

that have a bunch of chemicals in them. And now I'm just using

0:59

oil. And now I look like Joe Dirt.

1:01

So here's the one

1:03

problem here is that

1:05

we need to work on like the, we need to do some

1:07

like beauty regimen videos. They're

1:10

like, it's like, it's like you can't use any of the beauty

1:12

products you're using, but

1:13

now I just look like Theo Vaughn.

1:15

I'm like, I just put a bunch of oil

1:17

in my hair and I just look insane.

1:20

I'm basically styling my hair with olive oil

1:22

at this point. So clean beauty is coming. And

1:24

whoever out there right now is claiming to

1:26

be clean is still kind of

1:28

low tox. It's not really detox, right?

1:31

But it's coming, coming hard. Yeah.

1:33

I mean, it's tricky. Cause when you're, you

1:36

know, it's like digging into

1:38

all of, first of all, let's just start by, how about

1:40

introduce yourself? I'll shut my whore mouth. Sure. So,

1:44

so I, and what you said is

1:47

why I was sick and what drove me down this

1:49

journey. I didn't understand the proliferation

1:51

of like environmental pollutants, food, water,

1:54

everything that was making me sick.

1:56

And so I learned through my own genetic code

1:58

that there was literally pieces missing.

2:00

Right? So if your genes are your instructions telling

2:02

your body how to do all these little jobs that it does

2:04

for making hormones Making chemicals etc.

2:07

I was missing certain instructions So

2:10

me in a room with five people my

2:12

outcome was different than theirs and vice

2:14

versa with other problems, right? so a Business

2:17

was built around that because I healed myself got my

2:19

arthritic mother out of bed got my anxiety

2:21

induced niece back to school Straight a

2:23

student, you know

2:25

all of these

2:26

problems could have gone a very different way So

2:28

and that's and I just keep learning and learning and learning

2:31

and it just I need to vent and share somewhere So that's

2:33

what you're listening to

2:34

and I think I'm like top line just

2:36

to say this for In

2:38

a way that really helped me understand is that I spent

2:40

so much time trying to be healthy Yeah,

2:42

and thinking that you know one

2:44

test from you know Whatever, you know

2:47

venerable Institute or one, you know

2:49

eat blueberries every more that

2:51

that applied to

2:52

everyone. No And it

2:53

by the way, if that works for

2:55

you great, but you and I have completely different bodies

2:57

And I think I always thought that you know genetics

3:01

was just like done when you were born. It's

3:03

the way you look It's the way your eyebrows arch. It's the way

3:05

your nose is It's the way your you know mouth is you

3:07

look like your mom or your dad not something that for

3:09

the rest of your life Impacts your emotional reactions

3:12

impacts your anxiety levels impacts the way you react

3:14

to situations

3:14

Yeah, you got 50

3:16

trillion cells that make up this thing

3:18

you walk around in right? Every single

3:20

one has this instruction manual inside and each

3:22

cell Knows how to read the pages

3:25

that tells it to do the jobs they need to do So a

3:27

heart cell only reads that section kidneys I'll read

3:29

this section

3:30

and when the code is slightly altered

3:32

the outcome is very different for us and that's

3:34

where you know Hormonally, for example, this is the

3:37

biggest problem. I would say today's medical

3:39

scene, right? the thing that needs the

3:41

most work is female hormone health and Everything

3:44

around here's like you said that one size

3:47

fits all in medicine that you know trial

3:49

and error plug that into a 28-day

3:52

menstrual cycle right and try

3:54

and make that work. It doesn't work. Yep. So

3:56

that's a perfect example of why is there so

3:58

much acne migraines?

3:59

hair loss,

4:00

infertility, crazy menopause.

4:03

It's because we're all different trying to do the same thing

4:06

that we're told by one conduit to health,

4:08

which is the doctor, right? And we

4:10

need in personalization.

4:11

And I think for that, and we're gonna get to all the sort of,

4:13

I wanna get really granular on all the stuff that's killing

4:15

us in a second. And

4:19

all the stuff that is not killing us and all this stuff.

4:21

I think for me, I just wanted to wait to do

4:23

this podcast

4:24

until we were able to go like,

4:25

okay, this is something you should replace that with.

4:27

Because I think when someone's told, with the exception

4:29

of tap water and bottled water, which is like, it's

4:32

really hard to find a fix for that right now, unless you're

4:34

a trust fund kid, independently wealthy

4:36

and have someone who's 24 seven, just getting your

4:39

water. I

4:41

mean, to get your friend water today, it was just

4:43

like, okay, I'm gonna go to the glass arrowhead

4:45

thing and put it in the glass. It

4:47

just is like, but what's more important

4:49

than that? I realized why would I spend 20 minutes

4:51

online looking

4:54

at overpriced purses that I'm not even gonna buy? Right?

4:58

We're probably not made humanely, probably not made

5:01

by, you know, probably made by

5:03

children in another country, like completely like

5:05

morally unsound. But I'm

5:07

annoyed that I'm spending 60 seconds getting my water

5:09

that I'm putting in my body. So I think we also, I

5:12

think that, because at least in America, you

5:14

know, it's all about things being very fast and very quick and

5:16

very convenient. But how is something convenient if

5:18

long term it's gonna kill you or if it's 50s

5:21

start getting sick, or if you can't process

5:23

your food and you're not getting vitamins and you're always tired. So

5:25

I'm trying to just totally change my approach

5:29

about like consuming food and all

5:31

of your, you know, protocols

5:33

for, you know, cleaning yourself, eating,

5:35

drinking should take a little

5:37

longer. And if you think

5:40

about water,

5:41

we just think of it as I'm thirsty and this

5:43

is gonna eliminate my thirst. You're taking

5:46

in hydrogen and oxygen, which are two

5:48

key pillars of life. But you're

5:50

also often taking in forever chemicals

5:52

and hormones from women that feed

5:55

their birth control into the toilet, which doesn't break

5:57

down. And that's in tap water. That's

5:59

in tap water.

5:59

30% of American tap water has forever

6:02

chemicals in it. But I love that you're focusing

6:04

on the forever chemicals. I'm also focusing on the

6:07

urine. Yeah. Did

6:09

they get the urine out? The urine comes out

6:12

with the stuff coming along with it. And that's where the hormone

6:14

treatment, birth control, that's a problem. They don't

6:17

break down, right? So you're taking in with somebody else.

6:20

So just understanding that water isn't about

6:22

I'm thirsty, let's get rid of the thirst. It

6:24

is a tool to heal you, right? It's a tool

6:26

to give you life. The hydrogen gives you life, oxygen

6:28

gives you life with all these two things. You're not alive. Right?

6:31

And so your cells are constantly

6:33

trying to fight every threat. Your mitochondria,

6:36

that powerhouse of the cell inside is constantly

6:38

struggling with viral infections, bacteria,

6:41

recovering from your training, you

6:43

know, the stresses of not sleeping properly.

6:45

So if you're not fueling it properly, and

6:48

it doesn't know that you're living in 2023 in this

6:50

environment, your cells think that you're still living, walking

6:52

out of a cave every day, right? Truly, that's

6:54

what we're genetically wired for. Fast

6:57

forward, put that in today's environment. You're

6:59

already struggling, there's already too much going on, and

7:01

then your water is garbage, and then your food is garbage,

7:03

and then there's too much stress, your relationships are horrible. Gotta

7:05

start unwinding piece by piece by piece and replacing

7:08

it with

7:08

good. And it's so frustrating, because we

7:11

live at a time where, like, big

7:13

wellness, like there's a lot of con artists coming

7:15

in with like, oh, this is natural, this is

7:17

organic, and you really dig in. I mean, I was

7:20

at Whole Foods, and

7:23

there was like a mayonnaise, it was like avocado

7:25

mayonnaise or something, you know, you're like, oh, God, and I come home

7:28

second ingredient canola oil. Yeah, you're like,

7:30

but the label was green, there was

7:32

a leaf on it. It said natural,

7:35

like, you know what I mean? So it's like people are even capitalizing

7:38

on this fear. And even when you're trying really hard,

7:40

you know, I mean, remember all that time we spent drinking

7:42

soy milk thinking it was the healthiest thing on the planet,

7:45

you know, so it's like, you know, even within

7:47

trying to do your best to be healthy,

7:49

you know, you're gonna

7:51

mean I mean, dude, when I played in high school, I

7:54

remember being like, oh, I'm gonna get healthy, I'm gonna start drinking water,

7:56

I would drink like five of those Ebion plastic

7:58

water bottles a day. Yeah. Would I have been

8:00

better off just like not drinking

8:02

water at all, you know, I mean

8:04

it's pure it's spring water Great the

8:06

plastic not so great and what

8:09

plastic sitting in your LA You

8:11

know heat sitting in the back of the car getting

8:13

blasted But we don't know

8:14

where our plastic water bottle was a

8:16

year before it got to the store shelf. And

8:19

it's

8:20

even Forget about even plastic

8:22

even your fruit It takes

8:24

a year one year for an apple

8:26

to come from the tree to

8:28

your grocery store

8:29

And how is that possible because they rot in a few weeks?

8:31

Because they're covered in chemicals to allow

8:33

them to be preserved So keep in mind the supply chain has to

8:36

make sure that there's apples available Which

8:38

means that they overgrow them store them

8:41

They literally go into a gas chamber that

8:43

keeps them as they are and once

8:45

they get to the store They go into a different gas chamber that

8:47

releases all those chemicals to allow it to then flourish

8:50

and thrive and rot, right?

8:52

So there's so much going on in our food

8:54

supply chain that we don't see in here even

8:57

in organic You can go buy your organic baby food,

8:59

which means that great. It's clean ingredients

9:02

But organic doesn't mean that they check for heavy metals and

9:05

you'll often find three four

9:07

times what the environmental protection

9:09

agency says is actually appropriate levels for babies

9:12

in organic baby food So

9:14

that label like you said is especially

9:16

in this country. Unfortunately, it's

9:19

very much about literal Right.

9:21

What can we get away with? Checkmark

9:23

done, but everything else doesn't matter because nobody asked

9:25

me that question. Hmm

9:27

Can I do a question? It's something that's specifically

9:29

American. I know you know, yep

9:31

It's a very American problem the

9:34

thing we started talking about cosmetics

9:37

there

9:37

are

9:38

250,000 times

9:43

250,000 times the levels of certain carcinogenic

9:46

chemicals in American cosmetics that

9:48

there are in European Because they

9:50

just don't allow them. Hmm, right

9:52

and even at that level

9:54

They just ask a question. I mean interrupt is

9:56

that you have to do also

9:58

with the fact that they have a public health care system.

10:01

And they know if you guys are sick, it's going to cost us

10:03

more money, you know, it's

10:05

a little bit of both. So,

10:06

or do they want us sick? Or is it not a conspiracy

10:09

theory? It just is what it is. And we're a very young country

10:11

and we still haven't worked out. You have a $4 trillion

10:14

healthcare industry in the

10:15

US. 90% of it is chronic disease.

10:18

And that's the actual number 90%, meaning things

10:20

that you don't have to have, that you're not born with

10:22

that you develop and cause over time from your choices.

10:25

Try and disrupt that by

10:27

saying you don't have to have these things and 3.6 trillion

10:30

goes away, right? Which could be repurposed

10:33

to wellness doesn't have to go away. The

10:36

US being the wealthiest, you

10:38

know, empire that's ever existed

10:41

is also the sickest. Our

10:43

healthcare budget, even though they're the wealthiest, we

10:45

know the most is two

10:48

and a half times the average EU country. Right?

10:51

The annual it's 12 to 14,000 per

10:54

citizen where it's four to five thousand in the EU

10:57

because of these things. You look

10:59

at countries like Costa Rica where you think they don't

11:01

have the resources. They're spending

11:03

five to $700 per citizen and they're much

11:06

healthier. Yeah. Because

11:08

they've, they're, they will actually send somebody

11:10

to each person's home on

11:12

an annual basis to make sure that they don't have the bad

11:14

habits. They're

11:15

trying to prevent. Yeah. They're trying to prevent the bills.

11:17

Whereas here I

11:19

can do what I want. I can eat what

11:21

I want, breathe what I want,

11:22

do it. And it's the doctor's job to fix

11:24

me. But then it gets tricky because I listened to you

11:26

on a podcast talking about how the third cause of death

11:29

now is medical error. Yeah. So it's also like,

11:31

but if, if,

11:32

if you come get fixed by me, I also might kill

11:34

you. The 15

11:37

top causes of death in

11:39

the United States, 14

11:40

are rooted in inflammation.

11:43

The exact same. The others are falling off

11:45

a cliff trying to get a selfie. Well, number one, 16, 17, you've

11:49

got the list keeps going, right? Trying

11:51

to get a Pokemon off.

11:53

Number three is medical. Wait, what

11:55

one is.

11:56

So all 14 of, so aside from medical.

11:59

medical error, the other 14 or 15 are

12:02

all rooted in inflammation, meaning cancer,

12:04

cardiovascular, diabetes, metabolic

12:06

dysfunction, arthritis,

12:09

all of these things that are inflammatory, meaning

12:11

that

12:12

if your cells are healthy

12:14

and you're not inflamed, you cannot get the top

12:17

14 chronic diseases, which is what the majority

12:19

of people die

12:20

from. And does medical error also

12:22

include

12:23

prescribing OxyContin and that person?

12:26

The majority of it is prescription. Yeah,

12:28

that's the problem. So you know how

12:30

I've

12:30

just been looking at so amazing lately,

12:33

just in general? Here's

12:35

why. I've been sleeping

12:37

finally at night because

12:40

of the Blissy pillowcase. And I truly,

12:42

I did not know that I didn't know

12:44

that there could be a pillowcase that could help you sleep.

12:46

I didn't, I thought you'd have to put like hemlock

12:49

on it or something. I thought, you know, I thought

12:51

I'd have to go to Ambien and go down in history. The

12:53

next Roseanne. I don't know. I thought

12:55

I was going to have to start drinking whiskey sours and hitting my head

12:57

by accident to get a decent eight hour

12:59

sleep around here. But thanks to Blissy,

13:02

crisis averted with Blissy cell pillowcases,

13:05

I don't wake up on a hot swampy,

13:08

I'm not at all hot and bothered. I can actually sleep

13:10

through the night. And when I wake up, I don't

13:12

wake up looking like an actual smoke cigarette anymore.

13:15

Most pillows dry your skin out. Did you know that they leach

13:17

the moisture from your hair, not Blissy

13:20

pillowcases. Blissy's mulberry cell pillowcases

13:22

are temperature regulating and have naturally inflating

13:25

properties. So if you sweat and overheat

13:27

while you sleep, Blissy is

13:29

your guy and keeps the moisture in your hair,

13:31

keeps your skin care products and natural moisture

13:34

on your skin because silk does not absorb.

13:36

Yeah. I hate you. That was one

13:39

of the best. I love that. I'm thinking,

13:41

actin. Sounds like you're from the 20s. Are you?

13:43

Were you in the movie Dick Tracy? I'm not. I'm

13:45

not. I'm not. I'm

13:47

not. I'm not. I'm

13:49

not. I'm not. I'm

13:51

not. I'm not. I'm not.

13:54

I'm not. much

14:00

I turned into barista tome and

14:03

my cousin video

14:13

why

14:17

15:11

your life in bed and 10% in someone

16:27

I want to go a little bit back to the birth control thing, the

16:29

hormonal

16:29

thing, because what I see is I see

16:32

women on birth control. I

16:35

was on birth control. It's a very weird

16:37

time to say anything negative about birth control

16:39

in this country right now because there's a lot of places where

16:41

women are being ... I'm just going to say my experience

16:45

and it is what it is. I was on a

16:47

litany of different birth controls over time

16:49

and I was just like a zombie. I'm

16:52

a zombie. I'm on birth control.

16:53

I talked about in my, I think

16:55

it was my fourth or

16:57

my third special about also being

16:59

in bad relationships because when you're on

17:02

birth control, you smell pheromones

17:04

differently. You're attracted to a different kind of guy, a more feminized

17:06

guy. They

17:09

always say if you meet someone and get engaged

17:11

on birth control, make sure you don't get married until

17:13

you've been off it for a year and make sure you're still attracted

17:16

to that person or something. Who knows

17:18

what it was doing? Then I'm depressed.

17:20

I'm tired. They're like, oh, well

17:22

we need to give you this antidepressant. It's

17:26

just piling on and on and on and side effect

17:28

to side effect to side effect. In

17:31

January, I went off birth control. I

17:33

went off everything I was on and I could

17:36

not believe how much energy I had. I

17:38

just felt like a zombie. That's the only way

17:40

to put it. I felt like I ... I'm in a 12-step

17:42

program called Al-Anon where you work on

17:44

healing trauma that makes you

17:46

disassociate. I had a lot of disassociative stuff.

17:49

I also just identified as being someone that's in shock. People

17:52

don't talk about shock a lot. Then

17:56

going on these antidepressants and then I had insomnia,

17:58

of course, but I was also also drinking

18:00

diet soda all day. And I was

18:02

drinking coffee all day, you know, so there's so many variables,

18:05

but yes,

18:05

please. So you're, if we look at, so genetics

18:07

is not only about personalization, it's

18:09

also about root cause. So we're not saying

18:12

what's the symptom and how do I suppress it? It's

18:14

more like, where's the biological failure

18:17

and how does that equal the system or

18:19

the symptom I should say. Because one biological

18:21

failure is multiple spokes of

18:23

problems, right? You fix one thing and all of a sudden

18:25

the migraines go away, my skin gets better. It's

18:28

multiple, right? So acne,

18:31

and then you described how you felt. That's rooted

18:33

in being overly androgenized, which is how

18:35

you present your genes or your genotype. Here's my

18:37

instruction about your phenotype is called, how does that

18:39

physically manifest? I had like cystic

18:42

acne. So

18:44

you are, you can see bone structure,

18:47

body type. You're more androgenized. You make more

18:49

testosterone than the average woman. And there's

18:51

a particular version. I

18:52

knew I was trans. I knew it. I

18:55

knew it. Now I can bully

18:57

whoever I want.

18:58

You are designed to be an athlete,

19:00

right?

19:01

So I don't know what your history is athletically,

19:04

but DHT is a dihydrotestosterone.

19:07

It's a very potent form of testosterone. And

19:09

I think you make too much of it, which leads

19:11

to cystic acne, potentially it's the hair

19:13

issues.

19:14

And it also means in your cycle,

19:17

you're not reaching those estrogen

19:19

peaks that you need to. And that's why your

19:21

mood got better when you added the estrogen, which

19:23

is what birth control is. Interesting. So

19:27

now if you personalize that hormone cascade, which

19:29

is you make progesterone, you convert it to testosterone,

19:32

you convert that to estrogen. That's what women do monthly.

19:34

Men do the same thing, we just do it every day. We have

19:36

a menstrual cycle, 24 hour cycle. So

19:39

in that, there's genes that instruct

19:41

each step. How much do you convert into

19:44

testosterone? Does it go this way into DHT

19:46

or does it drop into estrogen? And if it drops into

19:48

estrogen, is it a toxic version? Or

19:50

is it a clean version? And you start

19:52

to map out exactly why person

19:55

next to me on birth control pill feels fine. My

19:58

friend has no acne problems eating the same. food,

20:00

same environment. I do everything

20:02

right and I get acne. What's going on? Yeah. Right.

20:05

It's not about you did

20:07

it wrong. That's your design. Your design like that.

20:10

But you were designed to be, call it a warrior.

20:12

And why do I say that? Because when you're talking

20:14

about the mood and your propensity

20:16

towards, I'm not going to, your brain

20:19

moves like this, which means your neurochemical

20:22

clearance is quick. There's a, there's a gene called clump, T

20:25

which clears neurochemicals. It also clears hormones.

20:29

If you're under estrogenized, this is

20:31

the gene that clears it. And if your

20:33

neurochemicals are firing too quick, this is also

20:35

the gene that clears that, which explains

20:38

the whole package. Can you say that last sentence

20:40

again, a different way, just in

20:43

a way that an idiot would understand. Your body

20:46

makes hormones

20:47

and chemicals,

20:50

neurochemicals, makes all sorts of things that you need all

20:52

the time. It also metabolizes

20:55

and gets rid of them when you don't need them anymore.

20:57

Right. And so when you're, for example, if

20:59

you're in a pleasure seeking moment,

21:02

I'm eating some tasty pizza, your

21:05

brain can smell the pizza and anticipate

21:08

it's coming. So you start to produce dopamine, right?

21:11

You eventually have to bind the dopamine

21:13

into receptors to actually experience the pleasure

21:16

that hit that you get the

21:18

density of receptors in our brain is variable

21:21

based on a gene called DRD2, which is in the

21:23

book, right? So if you have a

21:25

slightly lesser density, it's hard

21:27

for you to experience the intensity of the pleasure. Once

21:31

you're done with that, I got the pleasure,

21:33

I tasted the food,

21:34

you now need to get rid of the dopamine to come back

21:36

to normal. You're no longer in that pleasure. Is

21:38

this at all related to addiction?

21:41

Yeah. Okay. Because right.

21:44

If you identify as an addict, whatever, I don't self-diagnosed,

21:47

whatever, fight me in the comments. Um, uh,

21:50

addicts have a harder time holding on to dopamine. Whereas

21:52

with someone can have one drink and they feel that dopamine all

21:54

night, the other person has to just have more

21:56

and more and more. So there's no anything

21:58

about that abuse called.

21:59

to abuse. Addiction is a blanket term,

22:02

but you can be more micro about it.

22:04

There's attic, which means I need it on

22:06

time every day or I get frustrated. Then

22:08

there's a binger. I don't need it, but when I do it, I'm gone.

22:10

Yep. Very different things. Right. And is that genetically

22:13

based? Genetically based. And I can describe them both right

22:15

now. Fascinating. So and I'll

22:17

use myself as an example. I am that person

22:19

who I just said, I have the least

22:22

possible density of dopamine receptors

22:24

in my brain. So when I am in a pleasure seeking

22:26

moment, it's very hard

22:28

for me to get the pleasure. I can't get no satisfaction.

22:31

That's me. And this has nothing to do

22:33

with building up a tolerance over time. No,

22:36

no, it's innate. It's in the brain. There's a gene

22:38

telling my brain to not make enough of these receptors.

22:40

And is this something that would have been seen by your parents

22:42

when you were a kid, like you'd see a toy and it just wasn't

22:44

enough and you understand the behavior or

22:47

you might call it ADHD. That's

22:49

how it would be diagnosed today. And so

22:52

all of these things are really

22:54

superpowers. And I'll explain that when I tell you the

22:56

rest of my story that get

22:58

confused as kryptonite because of context,

23:01

you've been given this tool to use mental

23:03

superpower

23:03

as in in the tribe. It would have served

23:05

a very important purpose. Yes. But now you're

23:07

sitting in a classroom trying to be like everybody else.

23:09

Right.

23:10

It doesn't work anymore. That was not your job in the tribe.

23:12

Your job in the tribe was maybe is this very poisonous nut

23:14

was this fair or something. Right. So,

23:16

okay. Dopamine levels low. Can't feel it.

23:19

There's two more genes, one metabolize. This will

23:21

breaks it down. And one's like a broom that sweeps it up.

23:23

I have the ultra fast versions of those. So

23:26

I feel it down here, gone like that.

23:28

I am wired to want more and more

23:30

and more and more. And my,

23:32

my baseline is depression because the

23:34

world sucks. Nothing gives me satisfaction

23:37

or addiction because I go down the pleasure route

23:40

and I find the thing that makes me feel good. And I just can't

23:42

stop doing it. And my literally my life is structured

23:44

around it or dopamine

23:46

doesn't only power pleasure, it also powers

23:48

reward, achievement. And

23:51

so you only need one. Ultimately, your

23:53

brain is seeking satisfaction. It would drive us forward. Dopamine

23:55

is that progressive chemical makes you move forward.

23:58

So I've experienced all three of these.

24:00

I've had depression, I've been an addict,

24:03

and I'm an entrepreneur in three

24:05

very different contexts of my life. When I was

24:07

younger and I had friends that gave me stuff for my birthday

24:09

that I shouldn't have ever had, addict.

24:12

When I was in sort of, you know,

24:14

ten years ago, I had achieved some level

24:17

of success in my work and so I stopped trying, I

24:19

became depressed. I wasn't getting the hit.

24:21

I now know how my brain

24:23

works, that's why I constantly seek reward. I challenge

24:25

myself. So now the opposite.

24:27

Can I just ask real quick? So

24:29

many people do, and it seems like this

24:31

is a, this feels like most,

24:33

and I'm sorry, say high performer, high

24:36

achievers have this. So I like to just stop

24:38

for a second and highlight. If you have depression,

24:40

if you have addiction, chances are you're highly

24:42

qualified to be incredibly successful. You

24:45

know, I think a lot of people see that as like a death sentence

24:47

or like it's I'll never make it because I'm depressed

24:49

and I see the world is inherently depressing and bad

24:52

and I have this addictive personality. But like that, those

24:54

to me are sort of usually the elements, the

24:57

formula for success. You see this correlation

24:59

between highly successful people and suicide.

25:02

Yes. Surgeons I hear have incredible...

25:04

Surgeons, celebrities, you know, at the

25:07

top of the game, lose a contract.

25:09

What happens? And that's so interesting because I

25:11

think that for me, I went into

25:13

this pursuit of success or excellence

25:16

going and then I'll be happy. If

25:19

I just get this thing, if I just get one special and

25:21

then it's like, well that's special and now I did that special

25:23

and now I hate those jobs, do another one, another one. And then you go

25:25

like, oh, wait a second. This is like one

25:27

too many, a million, not enough. Yeah. And you, this

25:29

isn't something that you graduate from or you're done

25:32

with and I'm successful and now I'm just gonna... Yeah, there's

25:34

no end to it. You're speaking your own. Michael Jordan started

25:36

playing baseball. Do you know

25:38

what I mean? If that guy can't just be

25:40

done, I don't

25:41

know, you know, what other

25:43

proof we need. This is what drives humanity forward

25:45

is that pursuit of dopamine, that hit.

25:48

But other... Our genes

25:49

need people like you to keep achieving.

25:51

Yeah.

25:52

It's like a little trick to be like, no,

25:54

no, no, you're changing the world. You have to write

25:56

another book now. You can't just be rest

25:58

on your laurels.

25:59

This was not even out and I was already working on the next one

26:02

because whatever happened yesterday is not good enough.

26:05

That's the, it's called warrior genetics is what we call

26:07

it actually the profile. So now if you have

26:09

a very high density of dopamine receptors,

26:11

it's very easy for you to experience pleasure and

26:14

a very slow clearance opposite, you

26:16

know, just to exaggerate it a little bit. It's

26:19

so easy to experience pleasure that you're not seeking at

26:21

all. It's kind of like call that person

26:23

a flake.

26:23

You know, you're in a meeting.

26:25

Here's the things we got to talk about. Yeah, great.

26:28

And they're on to their sports thing or their whatever.

26:30

They just don't have a happy hour. But

26:32

you're just happy. You're fine with this. You're

26:34

fine with how this day went. Yeah. So you're

26:36

just cool

26:38

with what you've achieved today. Constantly

26:40

satisfied because their dopamine levels are so high. Now

26:42

give that person

26:44

the thing that gives them that elevated hit that they

26:46

don't normally experience. They binge.

26:48

That's the binger. Right. So

26:51

I worked with a guy named Charlie Engel,

26:53

who's this amazing, incredible. He wrote a book

26:55

about his journey from going from

26:57

addict to prison

26:58

to ultra marathon runner that now teaches people

27:01

all over the world. He like runs across crazy deserts

27:03

in Africa and does nonsense like that, where

27:06

he always thought he was running from running from serve.

27:12

What are the demons?

27:13

He thought he was an addict.

27:15

We went through his genetics and discovered that

27:17

he was a binger and he didn't understand

27:20

the actual problem that needed to be fixed. He

27:22

wasn't an addict. He didn't need the hit. He found

27:24

the thing that he liked, couldn't stop doing it.

27:27

And it's interesting because something like those marathons,

27:29

you have to train and train and then you're like scheduling

27:31

the bench, which is what a lot of people do that

27:33

aren't drinking every night, but they go, dude, we're

27:35

going to Vegas in two weeks. And they plan

27:38

that huge bench. Yeah, they need to save

27:41

up. They go, no, I'm not going to drink for two weeks because we're going to go

27:43

crazy when we get to Vegas.

27:45

And I'm like, this is a week because I always try to kind of

27:47

reconcile that with addiction because there is within

27:50

addiction, the managing your supply going like,

27:52

I'm not going to do this. Whatever.

27:56

I'm not going to do it now because I want it to hit really hard when I

27:58

do weeks.

27:59

It's like, so this is fascinating to me. So

28:02

dopamine is just one

28:03

of the elements of addiction or substance abuse.

28:06

There's other, we know the stress,

28:09

emotions, so what drives all that? Serotonin

28:12

is this neurochemical that usually

28:14

when you speak of it, it's like a mood regulator. That's the

28:17

most basic way people describe it. Do you have

28:19

anxiety? Do you feel good? Is your brain

28:21

responding appropriate for whatever's going on?

28:24

Or are you up and down more bipolar, right? The

28:27

actual mechanism is serotonin

28:29

allows you to sort of prioritize incoming

28:32

stimulus,

28:32

sound, smell, joke, bad

28:34

news, whatever.

28:36

What do you actually pay attention to? And

28:38

how much priority do you give it?

28:39

So if your serotonin is dysregulated, meaning the

28:42

actual receptors are a little too short, which genetically

28:44

you can determine. And can I ask you other non-genetic

28:46

factors that dysregulate them besides that's

28:48

genetic? So your serotonin, 80% of

28:50

it is made in your gut.

28:52

And you actually make it in your sleep. And you make it in

28:55

the second half of your sleep. And I'm gonna tell

28:57

you in a second, that's why people don't sleep.

28:59

And there's a big, we've, there's

29:01

so many people that come to us for like fix

29:03

my sleep and they're fixing the wrong problem. They're trying to

29:05

fall asleep when it's actually, they can't stay asleep.

29:08

They wake up after 3 a.m. and it's not the same. I'll

29:10

get into that. But

29:11

so serotonin, if you can prioritize

29:13

stimulus,

29:15

again, it's an innate superpower that

29:17

gets treated as a problem today because

29:19

there's so much stimulus and you're sitting in a classroom

29:21

or work or whatever, every little thing bugs

29:24

you. So these people are usually highly irritated.

29:26

They're usually frustrated all the time, anxious.

29:31

Combine this with either extreme of

29:33

dopamine and you get what we call

29:35

high functioning anxiety.

29:37

It's this drive because every

29:39

little detail matters. I see and

29:41

hear and smell everything that the people are on me don't even see. Like

29:43

a resource that's in a small stall.

29:46

Yeah. Like I wanna do, like there's a lot

29:48

going on. There's a lot of people. I can't do anything

29:50

about it. I'm kind of trapped. So now that person

29:52

in

29:53

today's reality, again, this cave

29:56

person, amazing trait because

29:58

that

29:59

wolf.

29:59

that walked on a twig kilometer away. You

30:02

heard a lion is that a yes, you need to be

30:04

high. Now today we're like beep on my phone. People

30:06

call it constant incoming stimulus.

30:09

This leads to chronic cortisol

30:12

stress.

30:13

Chinese water torture is how they torture

30:15

people. Little beep. Like

30:18

that's how they get people to admit

30:20

their crime. Just like beep, beep. Like it's just like, it's

30:23

so wild to me. And I have like, and you

30:25

can tell me if I'm wrong when you get my results, but

30:28

I have with diagnosed with misophonia, where I just hear things

30:30

really loudly. Oh wow. Like I can just hear

30:33

people talking. I mean, it's also being a comedian. You can't, you hear

30:35

a rapper, you can hear like someone turning

30:37

their phone off, you know, like these tiny noises are so

30:39

loud to me. Yeah. Um, and so distracting.

30:42

And also, you know, we'll talk about nurture in a second, but

30:44

growing up in an alcoholic home when around,

30:46

you know, eight o'clock at night, glasses started shattering,

30:48

people started yelling. Also just like the learned

30:50

hypervigilance as well, that sort of, you know, refortified

30:53

the genetic predisposition. So you're probably

30:56

another thing we're going to talk about.

30:57

Disregulated for adrenaline.

30:59

And we'll

31:00

talk about that as it literally imprints the trauma.

31:02

Cause I want to talk about

31:03

that too, because I think epigenetic wise, you

31:05

know, my mom and dad were fighting and

31:07

getting divorced when I was in utero too. So I

31:09

could have been born addicted to adrenaline because she was pretty

31:11

sure so much of it when she was pregnant for me.

31:13

Um, so

31:14

now that person who experienced the serotonin

31:17

this way, uh,

31:19

is constantly getting these cortisol spikes,

31:21

which is stress and your body knows that's not healthy,

31:24

that's a path to disease. And

31:26

so it drives you towards coping mechanism.

31:28

It wants you to be happy. Your brain will say, go

31:31

eat that greasy pizza. Go drink that thing. Produce

31:33

cortisol.

31:34

Your body says, go eat that fatty

31:37

thing. Go be happy. That sugary soda.

31:40

Yeah. If it's driven by a serotonin response,

31:42

because in primordial times, this

31:44

would mean you're in like major danger.

31:46

Well, in primordial times, it was never that chronic.

31:48

It was never your everything is good.

31:51

And tell us time for battle. You're on your farm. You're

31:53

in your cave. It's just normal everyday stuff. There's

31:55

no problem until there's an actual problem. Yeah.

31:57

And it's the same thing in plug that into.

31:59

any system in the body, including, you

32:02

know, I don't know if you saw that documentary where Chris

32:04

Hamsworth was told he has an eight to 10 times elevated

32:07

risk of Alzheimer's because of a particular gene.

32:09

So this gene determines how

32:11

efficiently your body moves cholesterol around in

32:15

from various systems, right? Your body uses

32:17

cholesterol to fight inflammation.

32:19

It's a very important hormone.

32:21

But if you are constantly

32:24

chronically triggering inflammation,

32:26

and you're

32:27

not again in the context for what your genes are

32:29

designed, which is inflammation of

32:31

our ancestors was everything is good. You

32:34

go to battle, get stabbed with a sword, and it's an acute

32:36

inflammation. Your body needs to fight it. Yeah.

32:39

Right.

32:39

In that context, today's bad version

32:42

of the gene was the best version. Now take

32:44

that best version, the person that fights, right?

32:47

And there's too much cholesterol, they don't transfer

32:49

properly. That's the person who would have survived the battle

32:52

in today's reality, where the pollution,

32:55

the food, the insulin response

32:57

from starch, etc, is driving constant

32:59

inflammation used to be a bite from a saber to

33:01

tiger, it saved your life. Now it's just

33:04

constantly shortening. Yeah. And now what happens

33:06

is if you have what today is a bad version of the gene

33:08

used to be the good,

33:09

you'd start to develop amyloid plaque in your brain.

33:12

And it starts to lead to what we call cognitive

33:14

decline. So he was told you have a eight to 10 times elevated

33:16

risk of Alzheimer's. What he should have been told is here's

33:19

the exact habits you need to have to

33:21

never get Alzheimer's. Because we know the

33:23

cause we're not just going to wait and see.

33:25

We know it's a plaque problem. So

33:27

let's just

33:28

teach you how to eat, teach you how to breathe, teach you how

33:30

to drink water, for example. And it won't

33:33

happen. You don't have it today. Why should I

33:34

ask you what some of those are?

33:36

Yeah. So again,

33:38

using myself as an example,

33:40

there's a gene called GSTM1,

33:43

which is a detoxifier of the gut.

33:45

So primary first line of defense, eat some

33:47

food, the toxins that come along with it, it's

33:49

supposed to find them, grab them, pee and poop

33:52

them out. I don't have that gene missing

33:54

from my genetic, it's not even about a version or step just

33:57

didn't get to ask how

33:57

common it being missing us.

33:59

So when we look at people that

34:02

are unhealthy,

34:04

we find that 48% of people

34:07

don't have the dream.

34:08

This show is sponsored

34:10

by Dreamland Baby.

34:12

So

34:12

I first heard about Dreamland

34:13

Baby's sleep sacks when I sent my

34:15

baby registry to my friends.

34:18

Registry. I'm ready to be a mom,

34:20

guys. I sent my baby

34:22

registry to my friends, probably got

34:25

texts from them being like, hey, idiot,

34:27

you don't need any of this. You don't need a horse costume

34:30

for your infant, blah,

34:31

blah, blah. They're like, why are you registered

34:33

for two dog saddles

34:36

that quote safely clasped in a

34:38

baby? After

34:40

getting a couple of missed calls from child services,

34:43

I asked my mom friends, what do I register

34:45

for? Because I had no idea. They all literally,

34:48

they all told to put on my registry, weighted

34:50

baby sleep sacks. Here they are.

34:53

I dream land baby.

34:55

Okay. And then I had my baby shower. And when I

34:57

tell you

34:58

half the moms came up to me and told me

35:00

about the Dreamland Baby sacks and how it

35:02

was such a miracle to get their babies

35:04

to sleep and they were all wasted. So they called it dreamer,

35:07

but that's beside the point.

35:10

These are the softest and cutest

35:12

sleep sacks I've ever seen. Look how cute these

35:15

are. A bunch of my friends got them for me. I

35:18

also bought a bunch for myself. My plan after

35:21

I use them to calm my baby down when he's

35:23

screaming and crying because I'm trying to teach him how to

35:25

say, bap, bap, bap for content. I'll

35:27

just throw them right in here. Okay. So he can doze

35:30

right off to sleep because Dreamland Baby

35:32

sleep sacks provide deeper sleep for

35:34

your baby, better sleep for the mama

35:37

and easy to use two-way zippers. Look at

35:39

this for fuss free diaper changes and

35:41

cover com technology. So the weight evenly

35:44

distributes weight from the shoulders

35:46

and toes. But I want to, at

35:48

the end, when we're teased down being a baby, I'm going

35:50

to cut them all up and make one giant one for me

35:53

because I got so many of them. And look

35:56

how one has is, lets

35:58

the hands out or is

35:59

little arms out and then one is like a full

36:02

sleep.

36:03

Yeah. Sleeping bag that you can put his whole

36:05

little body in so that he's not

36:07

reaching for me or ruining my makeup

36:09

or touching

36:10

my phone. It's just a head on a stick.

36:12

Yeah. Just most importantly,

36:15

okay. Look, this is a Shark Tank

36:17

product. That's honestly I should have

36:19

just opened with that. Okay. Lori Granny.

36:22

Am I pronounced that right? Grineer. Grineer. Okay.

36:25

I'm French now. So we

36:27

say Grignet over in folks where

36:29

I live. Dude, Shark Tank doesn't

36:31

play around and I know Lori. She does

36:34

so well apparently that I know how

36:36

to pronounce her full name. She does not

36:38

play around. Okay. So if this was good

36:40

enough for Lori, it is good enough for you. Look at this.

36:43

Good

36:43

enough for your little baby. Look how cute

36:45

this is.

37:20

It's

37:20

so cute. When

37:25

jeans are diverse

37:27

in people, does that come from you

37:29

know the you know what the

37:32

tribe would have needed you to evolve

37:34

towards or is it ancestral?

37:37

Is it you know where you're from the same

37:40

way you would you know have more melanin in your skin

37:42

if you were near the equator versus you wouldn't if you were

37:44

an Antarctica? Is there some kind of biological

37:46

basis for why you don't have that gene

37:48

i.e.

37:48

there weren't toxins wherever your ancestors

37:51

were. It's a little bit of everything. So

37:53

it's a little bit of yes

37:54

being wired for your ancestors habits. You're

37:56

not wired for

37:58

living in LA right for example.

38:00

There's a gene called Adriatubee which determines

38:02

how efficiently you deal with adrenaline.

38:04

And some people truly imprint

38:07

trauma like a tattoo. It's

38:09

the difference between I remember

38:12

the information versus I remember the

38:14

feeling.

38:15

The next time something like that happens again, next time I

38:17

see that person again, next time I'm in that room again,

38:19

the feeling comes back. Again

38:22

innate superpower because it gives you that emotional

38:24

intelligence, it gives you that sense

38:26

of I should be worried about this and triggering

38:29

some kind of defense

38:30

versus a person who just doesn't hold

38:33

a grudge at all and lets it happen to them again and again

38:35

and again. You go to a

38:37

party, you feel your ex is there.

38:38

You feel it pit in your stomach, tingly

38:41

sweating, whatever, 3,000 years ago that was like

38:44

get

38:44

out of there

38:46

and now I have the superpower to remove myself from a dangerous

38:48

situation. Warriors. Now

38:51

that wiring again depending on the

38:53

context could be your greatest gift,

38:55

could be your biggest burden.

38:57

I have PTSD

38:59

or my EQ is off the charts.

39:03

It's both. Depends on how you're using the tool

39:05

and depends how aware you are of why it's happening.

39:09

And then you can keep going. There's a gene called

39:11

BDNF, brain drive neurotropic factor which

39:14

determines how efficiently you make BDNF. Here's

39:16

a perfect example. You talked about the Finnish people.

39:19

So in Finland,

39:21

they genetically out of

39:23

all the ethnicities in the world

39:25

have the worst BDNF across the board.

39:28

BDNF

39:29

drives neuroplasticity. So how efficiently

39:31

your brain makes new neural pathways

39:34

which also speaks to mood regulation.

39:36

So how much meaning

39:38

do you give stuff? If you're not good with neuroplasticity,

39:41

you're probably, you know, there's

39:43

more shock factor. There's more shell shock,

39:45

spinning, ruminating type thinking. So

39:47

Finnish people across the board have the worst

39:49

BDNF

39:50

which means they should be constantly drama queens.

39:52

They

39:52

should be angry, upset, frustrated all

39:54

the time because everything means so much.

39:57

Finland has also voted the happiest

39:59

country in the world. Doesn't

40:00

that up? Right? So

40:02

what's going on there? They're liars.

40:05

Maybe. Sick.

40:06

Or I can tell you what's going on, which

40:09

is the thing you mentioned, epigenetics.

40:12

Here's a gene.

40:13

I have a certain version of it, baseline.

40:15

Now there's something I can do that

40:18

can crank the dial in that gene

40:20

and either slow it down or speed it up. That's

40:22

in the moment, meaning so long as I'm eating that

40:24

thing, spelling that thing, experience that thing, it's turning

40:26

the gene on during that time.

40:28

Take that thing away and I go back to my baseline. That's epigenetics,

40:31

the expression.

40:32

Finnish people have more saunas per capita

40:34

than any country in the world. Sauna

40:36

is a potent BDNF up regulator. And

40:39

the reason why they have the saunas is because when they don't

40:41

do it religiously as part of their culture, they don't

40:43

feel good and they fight and they have relationship

40:46

issues and they, so they just do it.

40:48

And

40:49

this is a perfect example of, you

40:51

know, your genes are

40:54

your innate wiring, the cards you've been dealt with

40:56

the choices you make, turn the dials and that's

40:58

your actual destiny. So if you know

41:01

who you are and how you're wired, you know where to use it.

41:03

You know, how do you, you know what choices you should make to be at your

41:06

best.

41:06

Do they know that about themselves and

41:09

that's why they do it or are

41:10

they just like, so I posted

41:12

something about this online and I can't tell you how many Finnish

41:14

people were pissed off. You're

41:18

like, yeah, you have the genetics for that. I know

41:20

you guys are going to do this. It's

41:22

like, it's not so typical. Every day

41:25

you have them into the sauna. You're the guy without a sauna? Yeah.

41:27

So, and it's exactly what you would

41:30

expect. There's

41:31

something so freeing about

41:33

this information. It's like so freeing

41:36

to know this stuff,

41:36

but there's also a little bit of the like, well, you're

41:39

a Virgo. So that's why you're acting like this. It's

41:41

also a little dismissive too. Like,

41:44

yeah, it would be like this. I

41:46

saw your genetic report. And

41:49

so

41:50

you can be coached to use it properly. Like we do

41:52

have families now that literally genetically

41:54

filter everything. Our team,

41:57

when we go sit in the executive meeting, we all

41:59

know how we, who.

41:59

we are and how we think and so we know what

42:02

jobs are supposed to do. So we're kind of more symbiotic now.

42:04

When

42:04

you hire people, there's like something like that

42:06

come into account. Like if,

42:07

if you, how

42:09

can

42:09

you not, there's, you know, there's going to be

42:11

like, you know, like we obviously can't be racist

42:14

or sexist. There's going to be a day where it's like, if

42:16

there's two resumes that are equally

42:18

the same

42:19

and one of them's finish,

42:21

like the

42:24

challenge is now I can recognize the traits,

42:26

but I don't, I don't even need your DNA test. If

42:29

I talk to you for five minutes, I know what's going on. I've

42:31

just done so much of it that I see it. So

42:33

I can't help but have this filter,

42:36

whether it's understanding your hormones, your brain, your

42:38

detox is like by looking at your skin, knowing what's

42:40

going on with your health,

42:41

I've just done it so many times. So it's an automatic built-in

42:44

filter now that before I even

42:46

shake your hand, it's like, Oh, here's what's going on with your DHT. Wow.

42:50

I don't know. It's a bit of a curse. That's

42:52

intense. Yeah.

42:54

What else am I giving off?

42:57

Well, I

43:00

do.

43:01

Is it true that

43:03

the more deeper sunken in your eyes are, the

43:05

more your ancestors were punched in the face?

43:08

I've never heard that. Welcome

43:10

to the podcast. Tell me this,

43:13

when you sleep,

43:14

do you struggle in the

43:17

second part of the night?

43:19

Okay. So

43:23

it's gotten better. When

43:26

I'm performing, when I'm doing scan up a lot,

43:28

which means I'm going to work at 7 38 o'clock

43:30

at night, I'm on stage. I'm doing sometimes

43:32

two hours in front of thousands of people.

43:36

I come off today. I'm sorry

43:39

to over complicate this. The answer

43:41

is like, if I have to get up at 5 a.m. and

43:43

I'm going to bed at midnight

43:44

or something, I'm kind of like,

43:47

if I'm truly just like, have nothing

43:49

to do the next day.

43:52

I mean, yeah. Yeah, I think

43:54

it's more the struggle of falling asleep than staying asleep

43:57

for me. Okay. But I what I

43:59

do think.

43:59

Um, I have the,

44:01

maybe the night watcher DNA, right?

44:03

Of like the staying up at night, but

44:05

it could also be growing up in alcohol at home where you

44:07

had to be awake at night. Okay. And set when

44:09

you have sexual abuse, it's like, you got to be on

44:11

high alert.

44:13

Prediction. When we get your DNA back,

44:15

I think your vitamin D response

44:17

is broken.

44:18

Ooh. And why do I say that? So I

44:20

paid a lot of money for these days. So pretty good.

44:25

Different vitamin. Uh,

44:29

D three,

44:31

something that comes from the sun. Well, D two comes in the sun.

44:33

Your body converts it to D three.

44:34

And I'm going to say something else. I have

44:36

been so conditioned to

44:38

believe that I shouldn't be in the sun and have

44:41

been like a chronic sunscreen addict for

44:43

so long too. Yeah.

44:44

Sunscreen is one of the

44:46

most potent toxins. No, I shouldn't say potent toxins,

44:49

but most commonly used toxins full

44:51

of sunscreen. Killing us is literally my

44:53

new favorite ironic nightmare. Yeah.

44:56

Just the thing I've been slathering on all

44:58

day, every day to not get

45:00

cancer

45:01

is what is killing me. Here's what you

45:03

actually need to do. If you go

45:05

back to your vitamin D, but here's

45:07

what you need to do for your skin. If you have

45:09

trouble with the sun,

45:11

it does not mean that you need to block

45:13

the sun. I have

45:13

trouble with high depth television that magnifies

45:16

wrinkles. The sun and I are cool. It's

45:18

the aging thing. It's the

45:21

Reddit trolls.

45:21

Your

45:23

people typically, as again, I need

45:25

to call it out, especially Americans

45:27

are so inflamed that the skin

45:29

can't handle the sunlight. So

45:31

if you're healthy, you're

45:33

when you're, you're supposed to, so here's

45:35

the other problem, people wear sunglasses.

45:37

You're, you're supposed to see

45:39

sunlight to trigger melatonin.

45:41

People wear sunglasses inside.

45:43

Yeah. And so what's happening

45:45

is you're, you're never sending the signal to your

45:47

body to produce melanin.

45:49

Sun's supposed to hit your eyeball, produce

45:52

melanin to protect you from the sun. That's

45:54

the way your body works. You block the sun. There's

45:56

no melanin production. Second thing is you're

45:58

eating seed oils. Which caused

46:00

skin inflammation

46:02

and so your bought your skin is teetering on

46:04

I'm ready for skin cancer There was a study

46:06

that was done on animals

46:09

Where they took I think about a dozen animals

46:13

Fed them an American diet and

46:15

they took about a dozen animals and fed them like a carnivore

46:17

diet They

46:18

then put them out in the Sun 25% of

46:21

the Seed oil

46:24

eating animals got skin cancer

46:26

zero of the carnivores got skin cancer

46:29

from the exact same sun exposure

46:31

Right, so it's not about Sun and Osan.

46:33

It's about what are we wired for? What are we doing wrong

46:35

get rid of the garbage food and do not have skin inflammation

46:38

Get sunlight in your eye which you will be able

46:40

to handle once you're healthy And your body's

46:43

already ready for all this stuff right and

46:45

that so now going back to vitamin D So

46:48

the out of all the micronutrients, it's

46:50

the most complex pathway Usually

46:53

vitamin C one gene metabolizes

46:56

it and you're using it

46:57

Vitamin C is a three or five even D. Sorry

46:59

the three-step process because again

47:01

different context our ancestors got too much

47:03

We don't get enough. We are indoor

47:05

people now. They were outdoor people So

47:07

our systems are designed to mitigate

47:09

the overdose of sunlight and we

47:12

don't have enough sunlight

47:14

Step 1

47:15

D 2 converse a D 3 there's a gene that will actually

47:17

do that job for you. That's what you think is

47:19

broken

47:20

Well multiple steps might be broken for you

47:22

Okay again going back to what you said about your hormones

47:25

and all is just all piecing together like vitamin

47:27

D response So step

47:28

one convert it step two is these

47:31

I need to transport it to the cell

47:33

where you actually use it as a different gene

47:35

Step three is you need to bind it at the cell

47:37

VDR. It's a different gene. So any

47:39

one of these could be not working properly so

47:42

The simple question of well, I got my vitamin

47:44

D tested as a doctor and they said my levels are good Does

47:48

it mean that you've actually got it into the cell where

47:50

you need it or is it just in the blood?

47:52

Because if I'm taking a supplement of D

47:54

would that masquerade as

47:57

so the supplement is good

47:58

But do you need?

47:59

1000 IU or 10,000 IU. That's

48:02

gene number one. Do you need it once

48:04

a day or three times a day?

48:06

That's the other two genes because keep in mind your

48:08

body's mimicking what it thinks your environment

48:10

is supposed to be, which is I'm out in

48:12

the sun all day because that's what my ancestors did.

48:14

So a constant drip as opposed

48:17

to here's my vitamin D shot in the morning and I'm going to

48:19

work inside all day.

48:20

Right? Yeah. So now fix that

48:23

and

48:23

you have 22,000 genes that make up your genome.

48:26

All these little instructions, 2000

48:27

of them, 10%

48:29

of your human biochemistry requires

48:32

the right amount of vitamin D to function

48:34

properly, to express.

48:36

Those genes don't work

48:37

if you don't have the right amount of vitamin D.

48:39

So 10% of every job going on in your body

48:42

starts to fail.

48:43

And when I hear these multiple, especially when it comes

48:45

to hormones, it's often

48:47

such a simple thing to fix. Let me tell

48:49

you a story

48:50

about my niece.

48:52

My niece is the reason

48:54

why we went from a research company

48:56

to everybody needs this.

48:59

It was like a light bulb went off. When I started the

49:01

research, it was just purely to be a research company

49:04

thinking, I'll take this, give it to every other

49:06

healthcare company, hospital, they'll go help the

49:08

people. I'm not a doctor. Right? Okay.

49:11

My niece

49:13

had an anxiety attack.

49:15

She lives with my mom and my sister

49:18

and my mom called me frantic, like get over here, help

49:20

her. So I went over there, called a friend who

49:22

was a pediatrician. She can't breathe. He said, yeah, that

49:24

sounds like an anxiety attack, but it also sounds like it's

49:27

almost over. Just

49:29

call me if it happens again. So

49:31

sometime later, my mom calls me and says, you need to

49:33

come again because this time she actually passed

49:35

out and hurt herself. She fell on a table and I think she

49:37

broke her leg. She can't walk.

49:40

I take her Canada, the healthcare is free, but

49:42

you got to wait eight hours. So

49:43

we go to this walk-in clinic. It's

49:46

like an emergency type clinic,

49:48

blood tests, all this stuff was done. And

49:50

at the end, the doctor said,

49:52

if it happens again, let us know.

49:54

And I knew at that moment, that meant if it happens

49:57

again, she's getting diagnosed with an

49:59

anxiety condition. And

50:00

we're gonna tell you a pill she has to take. Yeah, right.

50:02

A epileptic something. Yeah So

50:05

I thought at that time I had her DNA. Let

50:07

me look at it I'll do something about it and I

50:09

didn't I got busy went back to work

50:12

My

50:12

mom called me again, and she

50:14

said

50:14

your niece has run away from home

50:17

And if you've met my niece sweet innocent

50:19

young girl that completely out of character you wouldn't expect

50:21

this So

50:22

I told my mom my sister don't all that means

50:24

is like she's down the street somewhere like she's not running

50:26

away from home

50:28

So I found her literally still run away from

50:30

home Well

50:35

for her I was just this one time

50:37

so she she I found her literally

50:39

down the street

50:41

Got her in the car like

50:42

is it bullying? Is it a boy thing? Is it

50:44

social like what happened social media? Whatever teacher

50:47

she didn't know she was running away from that space that

50:49

feeling she need to get out

50:51

That's when literally on my phone. I went into

50:53

my email open her DNA report, which I had

50:55

and

50:56

Just again look for red flags. I didn't look

50:58

for anxiety right and look for the way she's I

51:00

just look like what job is her body not doing and At

51:04

that moment

51:05

first of all this context wise this was

51:07

peak COVID This was like two years ago right

51:09

in the middle of all the lockdowns and all that stuff in

51:12

Toronto Where we had the world's longest

51:14

lockdown in

51:15

the middle of winter

51:16

just keep in mind contact Yeah,

51:19

first thing I saw her hormone cascade

51:22

The beginning of the menstrual cycle is women women

51:24

have the least hormone you just finished getting rid of everything

51:27

and now you're gonna make more So you go into a bit of

51:29

a valley? She went into

51:31

a very steep decline so her

51:33

estrogen levels are already too low and now she's

51:35

going to this deeper decline So

51:37

that's red flag number one, but

51:40

nothing happened up until this time. So why this

51:42

time?

51:44

The red flag number two is her vitamin

51:46

D cascade all three steps were broken So

51:49

she didn't have enough vitamin D in the system which combined

51:51

that with the hormone problem leads to this kind of feeling

51:53

again Why would a teenage girl be on vitamin

51:55

D supplements? You know what I mean? It's like

51:57

something we we we think of supplements

52:00

something you do when you're older, yet

52:03

we give pharmaceuticals to kids. Yeah. So wild. Yeah.

52:06

So now, why now she had had

52:08

her menstrual cycle for two years at this point, right?

52:11

So why did it happen now at this time?

52:14

Because this is why, sorry, this

52:16

is when

52:17

she hadn't been outside in five months because of a COVID

52:19

lockdown. It had zero vitamin D.

52:22

Zero, literally in Toronto winter.

52:25

So

52:26

why did it lead to, because there's so many biological

52:29

failures it could lead to, why did it lead to an anxiety

52:31

problem? Because I told you about my dopamine pathway.

52:34

She's my niece. She's wired exactly the

52:36

same as me.

52:37

Low dopamine receptors, hyperfast

52:40

clearance. So she's already teetering on depression

52:42

and anxiety if she's not in the right context. So

52:45

this combination, hormone's

52:46

low. And then I looked at the text

52:48

messages and calls from my mother and clockwork,

52:51

they were monthly. The same

52:53

day. Interesting. Right?

52:55

And so I then called my mom and said, what part

52:57

of her cycle was she in? You're right. It was the

53:00

beginning of the cycle.

53:01

Right? She's in this Valley like

53:03

clockwork, three months in a row,

53:05

vitamin D, zero slim to none.

53:07

She has no dopamine.

53:10

What would have happened if I didn't know

53:12

all this, that she would have had her third out

53:14

or sorry, she did have her third. She would have then

53:16

been taken to the doctor on her third, been

53:19

given a pill and she'd probably still be on it. Yeah.

53:21

Instead what happened, I

53:24

did not take her to the doctor because then I realized I know

53:26

what's going on. I should have done this in the beginning.

53:29

All I did was two things.

53:30

I gave her 10,000 IU of vitamin

53:33

D split into three parts because she doesn't transport

53:35

properly for

53:36

the first week of her cycle,

53:38

5,000 IU in the second week, and then 2,500

53:40

maintenance.

53:42

That was month number one.

53:44

And I gave her L-Cianine, which

53:46

is a supplement you can buy in any store that boosts dopamine

53:48

levels. That's it.

53:51

She never had the problem again.

53:53

It's been two years. Right?

53:54

She has never had the problem since then. She guarantee

53:57

would have still been on an anxiety pill. Believing

53:59

that she actually.

53:59

she had this thing called anxiety. And

54:02

something that's amazing, sorry, about doing

54:04

something like that, having five ingredients in

54:06

your diet for,

54:07

you know, instantly like, oh,

54:10

like, like when you're trying to isolate, like,

54:12

I don't know if it's bread, I don't know if it's this, but then

54:14

you're kind of eating a little bit of bread, you're kind of a little starch,

54:17

there's starch and everything a little bit when you kind of just get

54:19

super simple in your diet. Like

54:22

I think that's always unless one of those

54:24

five things

54:25

is the chances. Yeah. And

54:27

that's where a lot of natural paths practice, like an

54:29

elimination that is slowly chipping away. Right.

54:32

But for me, it's kind of like just cut everything

54:34

out, heal yourself and then start to

54:36

reintroduce and see what triggers you. Right.

54:39

But we already know what all the triggers are. It's what's

54:41

processed, it's chemical. Like, you know, when

54:43

we talk about certain foods being a problem,

54:45

for

54:46

example, some people say they're allergic to

54:48

nuts, right?

54:49

Often it's the mold, it's the processing.

54:52

Wow. It's the

54:54

how much coffee today is covered in

54:56

mold. The way that our food is globalized

54:58

in its production and movement,

55:00

most of the mold actually happens in

55:02

the storage that it develops in these, you know,

55:04

containers.

55:06

There's studies that show you that when

55:08

the food left Europe, it was

55:10

clean.

55:11

And when it arrived in the US, it had myso-toxins.

55:14

Mysotoxins come from mold. So

55:16

it happens because of the movement

55:18

of the globalization of food. The food itself

55:21

isn't making people sick. It's what the way we process

55:23

it. And that's why, you know, find your local regenerative farmer,

55:26

pluck it on the ground and eat it fresh. It's possible.

55:28

But I don't have time, but you did have time

55:30

to play fast and furious. Sorry,

55:33

what's the video game?

55:38

You did have time to

55:40

play fast theft

55:41

auto for four hours.

55:45

I think it's also like

55:48

a mindset change.

55:49

When you grew up, I grew up,

55:51

I went to school in Virginia, Corona, Virginia.

55:54

Monday was Pizza Hut. Tuesday was Taco

55:56

Bell. You got a menu

55:58

and you filled out.

55:59

what fast food you wanted.

56:01

Yeah. Okay. You eat your go-gird

56:03

in the car, you eat your nutrient bar on the

56:05

go. Like I have had to really

56:08

go like I'm going to the farmer's market on Saturday

56:10

and this is gonna take three hours. Yeah.

56:12

And this is just like gotta be my new kink.

56:15

It's just gotta be like I'm going out to Sylmar

56:17

getting these eggs that were, you know, like going

56:20

to get my butter at this place and it,

56:22

if there's something, sometimes you need to hit a

56:25

rock bottom and I think me getting pregnant

56:27

was a lot of rock bottom. No kidding. Um, I

56:30

mean like once I had another thing in me,

56:32

all of a sudden I was like, Oh, I gotta get my shit together. You

56:35

know, I wish I had done it for myself. I wish it didn't

56:37

take me getting pregnant to be like, I don't want to be pounding

56:39

this innocent little fetus. I didn't sign up for,

56:41

you know, health problems. Like I don't

56:43

want, I don't want to have the dork that's allergic to nuts.

56:46

You know, I can't, I can't, I

56:48

can't, my kids gonna get bullied enough with the last

56:50

name coming. He's like, he can't be the dork that can't

56:52

have peanuts, you know, at school. And

56:55

so, you know, it's, it took that

56:57

for me, but for a lot of people, it's really

56:59

hard to

57:00

wrap their head around. Like I'm going to go out of my

57:03

way and buy food from a local farmer.

57:05

Yeah. It won't grow my own food. It's

57:07

like any other habit

57:09

starts low, right? Start small.

57:10

And the challenge people have when they're trying

57:13

to do something is they think of the big picture.

57:15

Like, Oh, I can only buy food from a farm and I can never

57:17

eat this again. I got, it's very hard to make that leap.

57:20

The way to get to that place is know that it's

57:22

going to take you six months, maybe eight months and

57:25

change one thing. Right? Just take the granola

57:27

bars and throw them in the garbage. Do one thing and

57:29

then tomorrow do another thing and do, and what ends up happening,

57:32

the thing that you don't overwhelm yourself, because

57:33

also the stress and cortisol and adrenaline

57:35

of trying to be perfect. That's not

57:37

good for you either. Yeah.

57:38

And when you get used to that

57:40

sense of reward,

57:42

I did not eat the Doritos this week. Right.

57:44

Then you look for the next reward

57:46

because you're no longer seeking pleasure. It's, it's, people

57:49

fall into this almost a trap. Let's call it a secret.

57:52

And that's why you come out the other end with the superpower

57:54

of I

57:55

have a new identity. You

57:56

know, I'm not trying to work out. I go to the gym.

57:59

Yeah. I'm a different person. Yeah.

58:00

And then it's like, and this is where

58:02

having an addictive personality starts

58:05

to benefit you, because it's like, you know, because it's

58:07

like, I always try to find the positives of things that are

58:09

pathologized of going like, you'll start getting addicted

58:12

to the farmer's market, being the first one there

58:14

and getting the eggs before anyone else. And then now

58:16

I get addicted to working out and the results that I'm getting,

58:18

you know, so it's just like 28 days to make

58:20

a new habit, whatever. But

58:22

can I ask you just a wild question?

58:25

You're at

58:26

the airport, and you're stranded for

58:29

eight hours. What are you doing?

58:32

So

58:34

I did go to this guy, I think he's since

58:36

passed,

58:37

his name was

58:39

Dr. Bow. Yeah, he was a blood

58:41

type diet guy in LA. There's been a weather, some was

58:44

legitimate, some wasn't, I don't know. He

58:46

would sleep on a treadmill that was

58:49

inclined so that

58:50

he was like sleeping up. It's

58:52

a nutcase, all these powders

58:55

and all the shit. And I

58:57

said to him once, like, so if I'm, you know, I'm

58:59

type A negative, you know, Eastern, Western,

59:01

Eastern European ancestry, if I'm in

59:03

the airport, and I'm like in a jam, what do I do eat

59:06

a banana? And he just went, you might as well put a gun

59:08

in your mouth.

59:14

You're not designed to digest

59:16

bananas, are you insane? I

59:19

remember just being like, I give up. So

59:22

it's brought to you by BetterHelp. Okay, so

59:24

I know this may come as a shock to

59:26

you guys, but I am in therapy. I

59:29

know what you Whitney,

59:30

but why you're perfect. I know, I agree.

59:32

That's the problem. I'm in

59:33

therapy because number one,

59:35

sometimes every now and then my brain

59:37

tells me some things that are not true. Sometimes

59:40

it tells me I'm not perfect, which

59:42

is weird. Here's the thing with

59:44

our brains, they're wild, they can be very tricky.

59:47

I see,

59:47

I used to be in therapy because my life

59:49

was going terribly. I was making bad choices.

59:52

I only wanted to be romantically involved with unavailable

59:54

people. I had a little touch of the workaholism.

59:57

I was in friendships out of obligation. I

1:00:00

had denial about past family inappropriate behavior

1:00:02

and therapy helped me

1:00:04

clear all that up and now things are going well

1:00:06

And I have that little voice creeping in being like you're

1:00:08

gonna screw it up. You're not you're gonna botch

1:00:11

this It's not going well. It's not going as well as you

1:00:13

think okay the paranoia is coming

1:00:15

in these people who care about you They don't

1:00:17

really care about you And it wants me to go back

1:00:20

to those old familiar behaviors because

1:00:22

even though my life

1:00:23

is night and day better

1:00:25

It's not as familiar and our brains sometime

1:00:27

want the toxic familiar over

1:00:29

the sometimes uncomfortable Unfamiliar

1:00:31

got

1:00:32

it so I got to talk through this with someone's

1:00:34

on oneself that sabotage and destroy

1:00:36

everything I've worked so hard for and I

1:00:38

do it with a therapist who calls me out on

1:00:40

my stuff

1:00:41

And who can be honest with me so I can go

1:00:44

release some secrets release some shame She

1:00:46

whips me into shape my old demons go night-night

1:00:49

And then I can go function in the world and not post a thirst

1:00:51

trap on my Instagram to get my ex's attention Hoping

1:00:53

he will text me so that I could lose another two years of

1:00:55

my life helping him with his credit score If

1:01:43

comments on this YouTube ad Shouldn't

1:01:48

wasn't supposed to read that I

1:01:53

don't know. I probably

1:01:55

copy and pasted. Oh, we

1:01:58

can leave that in

1:01:59

I think the practical advice that

1:02:02

goes back to the thing I just said, which is

1:02:04

you see all this like there's this guy Brian

1:02:06

Johnson who's spending two million dollars a year to live to whatever

1:02:09

and you know eats what? I see

1:02:10

the one that eats his kid.

1:02:12

Yeah getting a kid's love. Yeah Yeah,

1:02:16

giving his blood to his dad, right? Yeah, sure. So now

1:02:18

it doesn't feel like he

1:02:20

has a choice in the matter Give me your blood or your

1:02:22

ground is so the challenge and all this stuff

1:02:24

is People think that

1:02:26

that's the only way it's possible, right? No,

1:02:29

very few people even the people that are directly

1:02:31

under him are not doing what he's doing,

1:02:33

right? Even his best customers who are following

1:02:36

so there's there's kind of three phases

1:02:38

There's the acute let's fix

1:02:40

the problem, right? Forget

1:02:41

about being a biohacker and getting red

1:02:44

light beds and you know getting oxygen therapy

1:02:46

like let's just fix your problem

1:02:47

and get the Terrain healthy

1:02:50

which we said earlier, right?

1:02:51

Which means again slowly chipping away at things Let's figure

1:02:54

out what's actually going on with you that that is

1:02:56

your problem the root cause not the symptom Let's start

1:02:58

pulling away the root cause and just getting the

1:03:00

acute problem solved. I don't have migraines anymore My

1:03:02

skin feels good great forget about being optimal

1:03:05

Then

1:03:05

you can move into this phase of become

1:03:08

the optimal version of myself. I now

1:03:10

feel good I

1:03:11

don't have the prom anymore. Nothing to complain about

1:03:14

and I'm on this path of reward I'm gonna

1:03:16

start going to the gym. I'm gonna start

1:03:18

going to the farmers market, right? I'm gonna

1:03:20

start saying no to mom. I can't

1:03:22

eat that food anymore

1:03:23

Don't by the way, that's a really big

1:03:25

one, too It's no one that's in a program

1:03:28

for codependence a lot of it is,

1:03:30

you know When you get healthy the sick and angry

1:03:32

emotion in other ways having boundaries, but

1:03:34

I'm big on like now what I

1:03:37

know You know like when I

1:03:39

you know stop, you know drinking kind of anything

1:03:41

I would more drink codependently I did the person

1:03:43

that would go out and just everyone else was drinking and I didn't

1:03:45

want to be the buzzkill Yeah, you know some like I

1:03:48

you know And so now I kind of been very

1:03:50

like before I go out I'll just or before

1:03:52

I go to someone's house. I'll just like hey just you know I'm

1:03:55

just kind of on the strict diet inflammation stuff.

1:03:58

I happy to bring my own food or how happy to come

1:04:00

after dinner. I'll always send a text before so

1:04:02

that you're not insulting someone or

1:04:04

making other people feel bad because a lot of times when

1:04:06

you say like, Oh, I'm doing this anti inflammation

1:04:09

diet, everyone's like, well, why are we sitting here eating this?

1:04:11

So it's just like you end up hurting,

1:04:14

triggering people

1:04:14

or whatever. That's the perfect

1:04:16

example of not only the

1:04:18

first phase where you don't want to

1:04:20

try and do that in the first phase. Forget about it. You're

1:04:22

going to screw up. Right. Also

1:04:23

then they need you to state your case and

1:04:25

then you have to defend yourself and you just kind of want to feel

1:04:27

better. And then all of a sudden the thing that's supposed

1:04:30

to make your life better

1:04:30

is stressing out and alienating people. Once

1:04:32

you're healed and you're in this optimal phase, people

1:04:34

around you already know it, they're already seeing it and now

1:04:37

they're curious. And that brings you to

1:04:39

where you think you're supposed to be when you start,

1:04:41

but you need to wait. But also

1:04:42

by the way, what works for me might not work

1:04:44

for you. Yeah. That's all. Yeah.

1:04:45

So that's the other thing. I'm not here to educate you. I'm just trying

1:04:47

to figure

1:04:47

out what does and doesn't work for me. Yeah.

1:04:50

And then you get to this final stage, which

1:04:52

is where it's kind of the goal,

1:04:55

which is that identity change. And that is

1:04:57

that

1:04:58

biohacker

1:04:59

anti-aging, like I'm buying equipment

1:05:01

and putting it in my basement to stay young

1:05:04

forever. Because

1:05:04

I've been through all this other stuff. And again, that sensor

1:05:07

award, you keep wanting to do better and better and better. But

1:05:09

you don't want to do this on the end. The challenges, everyone

1:05:11

that you're learning from is doing this

1:05:14

and trying to sell you these services

1:05:16

and all the people fail. Right.

1:05:18

Start at

1:05:19

the beginning. And then you get demoralized because you tried to do

1:05:21

sauna, cold plunge, go carnivore

1:05:23

all on the same day. And it's like doing

1:05:25

an incrementally. And if you talk to this person who's

1:05:28

here that told you

1:05:29

they didn't get there on day one. And

1:05:31

the reason they do all this stuff is because they felt horrible.

1:05:34

They needed to find some solution and it probably

1:05:36

took them years to get to the end. Years

1:05:38

of trial and error.

1:05:40

This didn't work. This didn't work. And they find the thing

1:05:42

that finally feels so good. And then they start to talk.

1:05:44

But

1:05:44

don't you think people should take your DNA test before

1:05:46

even embarking on this journey

1:05:48

or just so that they have a roadmap?

1:05:50

Because I think a lot of people like to go, okay, this is

1:05:52

what David Goggins does. This is what Jaco

1:05:54

Willak does. This is what Joe Rogan does. Like I'm going to do exactly

1:05:57

what they do, but they might be

1:05:59

built slightly different. Like you might be able to get a little

1:06:01

more bread than Joe or

1:06:03

even like the cold plunge you mentioned, right? So

1:06:05

there's a video going on right now a few

1:06:07

videos of people saying it's the best way to lose weight It's

1:06:09

the best thing for your brain. It's you know,

1:06:11

which is true for

1:06:13

certain people There's a gene called UCP one

1:06:15

which determines your sort of that big is

1:06:17

the best way to lose weight Do

1:06:21

you even know that is your radar? Okay. Okay,

1:06:24

we can again another thing we can talk about I

1:06:28

only did it twice and I puked immediately.

1:06:30

I'm like, this is bulimia. I

1:06:32

Yeah, I you guys didn't invent this I invented

1:06:34

this in high school so they literally all that's

1:06:36

going on with those epic because it's triggering a

1:06:39

appetite suppressing You

1:06:41

can do it with having a bitter if you just drink something

1:06:44

like a bitter melon bitter me

1:06:46

Sorry the inner kernel of a nut

1:06:48

for example, which is very bitter It triggers

1:06:51

the exact same thing that the

1:06:53

was epic triggers to make yourself sick basically

1:06:55

But

1:06:55

you're you know, you're signaling satiety to

1:06:58

your body. So yeah, so there's certain

1:07:00

things like bitters

1:07:01

That your body only wants in small quantities

1:07:03

because they often have other toxins that come along

1:07:06

with them So in small quantities, they're beneficial and big

1:07:08

quantities. They're harmful so

1:07:09

there's triggers that tell

1:07:12

your brain to stop and

1:07:14

You get signal like don't eat. That's

1:07:16

what those epic does Right these

1:07:18

foods bitter foods do the exact same thing.

1:07:21

Uh-huh. So

1:07:21

just eat some bitter food, right? It's gonna do the

1:07:23

same big actively

1:07:25

Nobueno

1:07:28

Yes You

1:07:31

see all these Hollywood actresses that are just like

1:07:34

bobbleheads

1:07:34

yeah If

1:07:37

you're again goes back to this if you didn't

1:07:39

deal with the acute problem and you went

1:07:41

straight to the optimization You still had

1:07:43

the problem. You're still metabolically unhealthy. Yeah,

1:07:46

you're still having inflammation. You're eating

1:07:48

less in

1:07:49

In the context of bad terrain,

1:07:52

you're not healthy Yeah, right the

1:07:54

health was step one then start doing

1:07:56

don't worry about the weight Right worry about health first

1:07:59

the weight is automated

1:07:59

You're not building as much muscle if you're on

1:08:02

something like that too

1:08:02

from what I understand losing muscle

1:08:04

Yeah losing muscle and something that's

1:08:07

fascinating to me and I just want to run by you Sorry

1:08:09

about the tangent is that isn't it if you walk

1:08:11

faster? You're gonna live longer and your grip

1:08:13

strength like moving heavy things

1:08:16

Yeah, so walking so 50% of

1:08:18

your nervous system is in your legs, right? If you're signaling

1:08:20

to your body, especially uneven when

1:08:22

you look at the blue zones where people live to over 100

1:08:25

they walk

1:08:27

Every day all day and they're walking an

1:08:29

old like broken pavement, right?

1:08:31

So it's signaling to the brain I need you

1:08:34

your body will give you what you demand of it If you

1:08:36

sit in a chair and don't do anything your body's like, okay,

1:08:38

we're done with this world time to move on Is this

1:08:40

I don't know if I made this up But is there one step

1:08:42

further of like it's like signaling to your DNA. You're

1:08:45

still useful to the tribe in some way Yeah for

1:08:47

sure. Yeah, and that you said mitochondrial

1:08:49

resilience. Like we got to keep this person young like they're

1:08:51

doing shit That's important foraging hunting.

1:08:53

Yeah, so lifting heavy things

1:08:56

Walking these are super powerful

1:08:58

signals to your brain to stay young

1:09:00

Breathing risk walking risk

1:09:02

walking. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

1:09:04

So going back to the cold plunge thing

1:09:06

UCP one determines thermal regulation

1:09:08

how efficiently does your body maintain

1:09:10

its temperature and also your metabolic rate?

1:09:13

If you have the bad version of UCP one

1:09:16

and you take a cold plunge, you're actually gonna store

1:09:18

fat

1:09:19

Your body again ancestral

1:09:21

context still thinks that acute

1:09:24

stress means battle

1:09:25

Somebody's trying to stab me with the sword

1:09:27

so that acute stress of going in the cold

1:09:30

plunge Signals to that person's

1:09:32

body. I need to store fat on my abdomen

1:09:34

to protect me from the blade So you got to do

1:09:36

this DNA test first and it'll

1:09:38

tell you if cold plunge is gonna benefit you or actually

1:09:40

make you put on way Yeah that one that one

1:09:42

of many examples of I now know the answer

1:09:45

right and Whether you have your DNA

1:09:47

great or you just go to a functional medicine doctor who

1:09:49

thinks root cause yeah I also think I'll see people

1:09:52

and I'm sure they're just like, you know Play it up and

1:09:54

being facetious for Instagram or whatever But I've seen in person

1:09:56

too when people get in the cold lunches are so stressed

1:09:58

out. I'm like, I feel like this is

1:09:59

Cancelling each other out like the adrenaline and cortisol

1:10:02

from doing this thing the benefits are kind

1:10:04

of just so for the right person It's one of the

1:10:06

best things they can do for

1:10:08

the wrong person horrible That's

1:10:12

it I did the

1:10:14

Is the tantamount? Benefit-wise

1:10:17

the cryo freeze the chambers.

1:10:20

Yeah, so cryo that flash sort of freeze

1:10:23

Similar, but it's not as

1:10:25

in stress inducing as the cold plunge, right?

1:10:28

Typically overarching it works for

1:10:30

almost everybody. I don't understand how anyone's

1:10:32

balls get past that I mean, I'm sorry.

1:10:34

I

1:10:34

just like how is this possible?

1:10:37

Like I can't even oh god Is

1:10:40

there some kind of that being said is

1:10:42

there some kind of link between?

1:10:45

Location of ancestry in the work like

1:10:47

I mean obviously if you polish people probably do

1:10:50

better at it or whatever a cryotherapy Yeah, or just

1:10:52

the cold plunge. Oh cold plunge. I know

1:10:54

that's the weird thing There's certain things that we're seeing so

1:10:56

first of all we live in a world where

1:10:58

there's so much cross pollination now There's no

1:11:01

there aren't many ethnicities that are interesting.

1:11:03

Surely you can yeah, especially

1:11:06

you know West is very mixed right

1:11:08

there's

1:11:08

certain countries that are called purebred

1:11:11

still, right? Yeah Like give

1:11:13

you funny examples when Vietnam so

1:11:15

there's a gene called MC4R That

1:11:17

determines the satiety of your palate how

1:11:20

much your your your tongue is satisfied

1:11:23

by the food you flavored right not not not your

1:11:25

stomach

1:11:26

Then there's a gene called FTO

1:11:27

which determines satisfy the satisfaction

1:11:29

of your gut So how long does it take your gut

1:11:32

to tell your brain

1:11:33

that I've had enough, right?

1:11:35

So in Vietnam,

1:11:37

they have typically the worst MC4R

1:11:40

same thing in Thailand They have the worst MC4R

1:11:42

which means that they should all be obese because

1:11:44

they cannot stop eating But is that why they're oh,

1:11:47

it's not it's why their food is so flavorful.

1:11:49

Exactly, right?

1:11:50

So what's happened is they've developed this

1:11:53

cuisine which is salty soupy

1:11:56

crunchy There's coconut there's

1:11:58

lemon. There's everything right because

1:12:00

when you go eat Thai food, that instant, oh

1:12:02

wow,

1:12:03

right,

1:12:04

because it has every texture and

1:12:06

flavor profile, so they evolved

1:12:08

in this direction because when they didn't do that,

1:12:11

they weren't satisfied

1:12:12

because they have that worst version of this particular gene.

1:12:15

So

1:12:16

context again is key here.

1:12:18

If you are in the right context where you're eating Thai food as

1:12:20

a Thai person, you're not gonna gain weight. Move

1:12:22

to the US and start to work with your colleagues

1:12:25

and have a sandwich for lunch every day, you're probably gonna become obese.

1:12:28

When the same people eating the same food didn't, because

1:12:30

you're now binging on the Doritos and the cookies because you can't

1:12:32

get satisfaction and you need it. This is actually

1:12:34

a survival mechanism

1:12:36

where that desire for more flavor

1:12:39

and texture forced you to get more nutrition

1:12:42

variety.

1:12:43

So you came from a place

1:12:45

where people were starving, so you developed this ability

1:12:47

to seek variety, which gave you more nutrition.

1:12:50

And was there a time where there was a correlation

1:12:52

between level of flavorfulness and level

1:12:54

of vitamin or mineral content?

1:12:56

Yeah, so when you eat food today, it doesn't

1:12:59

taste like what it used to taste like.

1:13:00

I have a friend that has a company called

1:13:02

Modgarden that builds like,

1:13:05

he has ancestral soil, let's say like

1:13:07

high quality ancestral, where worms are still pooping

1:13:09

in it and making like real, right? When I

1:13:11

eat

1:13:12

herbs out of that soil, the flavor

1:13:14

is like wow,

1:13:15

right? Versus go to a store

1:13:17

and something that's a greenhouse, like mass

1:13:20

produce, it's not what it's supposed to be. Such

1:13:22

a trip, dude. I'm gonna jump around

1:13:24

a little bit. Fish,

1:13:27

can we eat it?

1:13:29

Fish canceled? So

1:13:33

first of all, to every problem there's a solution, right?

1:13:35

So this is why I said there's two dials to turn, which

1:13:37

is remove or supplement. Some

1:13:39

people don't have a choice. So remove means,

1:13:41

okay, I have the choice to not do this, I'm safe, I

1:13:43

still have to do it, so I'm gonna add something to help myself. So

1:13:46

take fish, an example.

1:13:48

Just speaking of heavy metals. Yeah, heavy

1:13:50

metals and microplastics. That's the two

1:13:52

big concerns. Microplastics

1:13:55

now more than ever before.

1:13:56

So okay, I need to eat my fish, I'm going to

1:13:59

a dinner, whatever, sushi, I don't trust the fish,

1:14:01

you're going to take some Chlorella and you're going to bind

1:14:03

those heavy metals. Oh, right. There's

1:14:06

before you eat it or after you eat it after

1:14:09

or even during, right. Uh, Chlorella,

1:14:12

uh, spirulina also just take

1:14:14

them right after you eat it. It binds the heavy metals and

1:14:16

helps you get rid of them. Maybe not dealing with a

1:14:18

hundred percent of it, but you're not going to get sick.

1:14:20

So it's again, that question of I need to get the fish.

1:14:22

So now I add, or just get rid of the fish. But

1:14:25

microplastics plastics are a little more challenging. They're

1:14:27

not easy to get rid of. And so

1:14:29

the only real way way to get rid of microplastics

1:14:32

is that everything else is also wrong. It's

1:14:34

the last thing your body is going to clear.

1:14:36

So if you haven't healed your liver, if the

1:14:38

train isn't healthy,

1:14:40

they're going to persist. Right. And

1:14:42

again, disrupting your hormones, inflammatory in

1:14:44

nature, they get stored in your brain

1:14:47

tissue. They get stored in fat and your brain is fat.

1:14:50

Right. So that's why they disrupt cognitive, like

1:14:53

ability over time.

1:14:55

That's my answer to fish is that be

1:14:57

very clean about it.

1:14:59

Farmed fish

1:15:01

don't eat it.

1:15:02

So the farm Atlantic salmon is

1:15:05

nonsense. It is literally one of the most toxic foods

1:15:07

there is today.

1:15:08

But it's farmed. You

1:15:10

know what I mean? These people just like rely

1:15:13

on how

1:15:14

trusting, like

1:15:14

there's a certain words that they're able to

1:15:17

just put farmed fish. I'm like, that's from a farm.

1:15:19

That sounds great.

1:15:20

Yeah. Here's the major challenge with it. Even some

1:15:22

people have said, okay, I'm not going to eat farmed fish.

1:15:25

I'm going to eat wild fish.

1:15:27

The fish that comes to the off all Atlantic

1:15:29

fish is farmed because it's illegal to actually

1:15:33

catch wild fish because of extinction extinction,

1:15:35

at least for the US.

1:15:37

Right. So if you're buying a lot of fish of humans

1:15:39

by faith. So

1:15:43

so

1:15:44

but the actual breed is called wild

1:15:46

Atlantic.

1:15:47

So when you go to a store and you buy a wild Atlantic,

1:15:50

it's actually farmed, but it says wild on it.

1:15:52

And people think they're buying wild fish. The

1:15:56

word you need to find is caught wild caught.

1:15:58

That's simple.

1:15:59

thing allows them to, and they know what they're

1:16:02

doing. The labeling allows this to happen, but so

1:16:04

anyways, buy wild caught and

1:16:07

the smaller the fish, the better, you know, and smaller

1:16:10

the fish, the better. Yeah. Less exposure, right?

1:16:12

Um,

1:16:13

and take your binders, take your Corolla when

1:16:16

you're eating it.

1:16:17

I let you just say that because that's such

1:16:19

a foreign concept. I just take those binders,

1:16:21

take the Clor out like what is

1:16:24

can I ask you your supplement list like your day?

1:16:26

Just

1:16:27

your full. So it changes based

1:16:29

on what's going on. There's certain by what's

1:16:31

going on. You mean like, you know, your genetic

1:16:33

code so well, you know what you need. Yeah. So there's

1:16:36

foundational like, okay, there's foundational.

1:16:38

I know the there doesn't matter what I eat. I'm not getting

1:16:41

it. And

1:16:41

the key to that is actually minerals.

1:16:44

So we talk about protein, fats,

1:16:46

vitamins, what we don't talk about is minerals, which

1:16:48

is probably the biggest problem when it comes to our food, the

1:16:51

fleet of minerals doesn't exist.

1:16:53

Food is not

1:16:55

I get what I eat.

1:16:57

Food is a conduit that takes

1:16:59

minerals from the soil and nutrients

1:17:01

from the soil,

1:17:03

takes it through this thing, puts it into the

1:17:05

context where your body can actually digest it

1:17:07

and metabolize it. That's what food is. So

1:17:09

you're actually eating the soil, not the

1:17:11

fruit itself or the vegetables or the plants. Same thing

1:17:13

with that's mind blowing. Yeah.

1:17:16

The soil is dead.

1:17:18

It's the food just a delivery device.

1:17:20

Yeah. For the minerals. Yeah.

1:17:21

And since there's less minerals in our soil, we're

1:17:23

just eating delivery devices.

1:17:25

Yeah. That are delivering pesticides and chemicals

1:17:27

filler. It's also ridiculous. Right. Yeah. So

1:17:30

ridiculous. Same thing with an animal.

1:17:33

They just why would you eat a pasture chicken

1:17:35

because the coop chicken is eating garbage

1:17:37

and stressed and right. So and they put antibiotics

1:17:39

in. Yeah. So the food you're

1:17:41

eating

1:17:42

is you eat what you eat ate.

1:17:44

Right. When you eat what you eat ate.

1:17:47

Yeah. So when you eat a fruit, you're eating with that fruit

1:17:49

egg, which means what was the soil that it was grown in?

1:17:52

Most soil today is by mass farming. The way

1:17:54

that we produce food to hit the masses is it's there's

1:17:56

no minerals.

1:17:57

And so minerals is not just you know.

1:17:59

my calcium from my bones is 60 plus

1:18:02

that are really important. Even just your bones have 60 plus

1:18:04

minerals. Forget about calcium, right?

1:18:06

So all these micro processes that are going

1:18:08

on require minerals. And I would say that's

1:18:11

the one thing that's made me feel the most different. You

1:18:13

know, the activity in my brain, my body, my recovery,

1:18:16

the less need for training.

1:18:18

I don't need to exercise as much to get the same outcome.

1:18:21

Right.

1:18:22

So I add minerals. There's

1:18:24

a great company called Beam.

1:18:26

No affiliation to them. Yeah, we love Beam. Yeah,

1:18:31

I just think they're awesome. Right.

1:18:32

They've done it right in terms of here's

1:18:34

a.

1:18:35

And when you can go down so many rabbit

1:18:37

holes, but rabbit hole minerals is

1:18:40

there's humic and fulvic minerals

1:18:42

to different sorts.

1:18:44

They're one of the few things that when

1:18:46

they enter your body, so minerals come along

1:18:49

and they deliver into your

1:18:51

cell what your cell needs. As

1:18:53

soon as they've done that job, their

1:18:55

polarity reverses,

1:18:57

electric charge reverses, and they now bind

1:19:00

all the toxins that are not supposed to be in the cell and remove them.

1:19:02

Oh, yeah. And because

1:19:04

you don't and your body still thinks

1:19:06

it can rely on that, but it doesn't

1:19:09

know you don't have any minerals.

1:19:10

So it's not trying to detoxify these intercellular

1:19:13

toxins another way. It thinks that the

1:19:15

minerals in the food are supposed to do this.

1:19:17

And so this is why it's so important to bring back our

1:19:19

ancestral habits because our body has not changed.

1:19:22

It's wired for, like I said, quarter

1:19:24

million. Back to raping bitches. First,

1:19:29

you hit them on the head with the club. Was

1:19:32

that that was a Flintstones or I don't know, there's a couple of the

1:19:34

things from back then. Like carrying

1:19:36

heavy things. We mean the body of a woman. You're about

1:19:38

to throw off a cliff because she's infertile.

1:19:41

Yeah, we can cut that. It's

1:19:43

more about the food. And so, yeah,

1:19:45

so for me, so you asked me a question. What do I take? So

1:19:47

minerals daily. I take

1:19:50

spirulina daily. Chemotherapy

1:19:53

and most cancer drugs are based on

1:19:56

the pigment, the blue pigment that's in spirulina.

1:19:59

You just synthesize it, that's all it is. And you could just

1:20:02

eat it. You just take it, right?

1:20:05

Vitamin C, which sounds overly simplistic,

1:20:07

but it's one of the most important antioxidants. But isn't

1:20:09

it hard to get in a, don't

1:20:12

you have to get it in

1:20:12

a way that's not powdered or are there powdered

1:20:14

supplements now that are potent enough? Yeah, you can

1:20:16

get like a liposomal that just gets direct

1:20:19

to, so liposomal means it's a liquid

1:20:21

liposomal, it just goes straight to work. Okay.

1:20:23

Right?

1:20:24

So yeah, when it comes- Does that go

1:20:26

in the fridge?

1:20:27

I don't think so, no, you need to go in the fridge,

1:20:29

yeah.

1:20:30

And I'm complaining, I think

1:20:32

topical vitamin C was a

1:20:33

big bullshit trend in skincare for a while.

1:20:35

And it's like, there's no way that could actually be

1:20:38

potent with the way that it's packaged and delivered. I haven't

1:20:40

even seen that. Yeah. Yeah. So, but any of

1:20:42

the commodity type, like vitamin

1:20:44

D, C, just go for a high

1:20:46

quality, like high-end brands, right?

1:20:48

Because of the commodity,

1:20:51

there is variability in its

1:20:52

sort of potency, let's say, right?

1:20:54

So

1:20:55

vitamin D, religiously, right? Again, 10%

1:20:57

of you human biochemistry needs

1:21:00

this. Brown skin, my

1:21:02

ancestors were in the sun, I need more.

1:21:04

Then I'm

1:21:06

taking, so

1:21:09

again, mixing it up based on what's going on.

1:21:11

I had chapped lips, right?

1:21:13

So I took something called lysine, which

1:21:15

is an amino acid, which specifically targets

1:21:17

that. And I could have been

1:21:19

having this problem while I was gone in two days.

1:21:22

So I

1:21:23

kind of know what each micronutrient does

1:21:25

now. And I'm responding to what I

1:21:27

need. If I'm going to work hard at

1:21:30

fasting for a given couple of weeks, because I felt like

1:21:32

I got a little pudgy, I know what I need to

1:21:34

do to support that, right?

1:21:35

If I'm going to be training a little bit harder at

1:21:37

the gym, because I need to do like a video or something and

1:21:39

my biceps need to stick out. So there's something

1:21:42

I'll do around that, around recovery and

1:21:44

intracellular recovery, supporting my mitochondria.

1:21:47

I take something called a tocotrenal.

1:21:49

It's a unique form of vitamin E that

1:21:52

comes from palm fruit. And

1:21:54

it's really supportive. It's been proven to

1:21:57

reverse dementia, Alzheimer's. Yeah,

1:21:59

really potent.

1:21:59

and stuff but I take it more for intracellular recovery,

1:22:02

mitochondria.

1:22:03

I'll take whole fruit

1:22:05

and talk of a tree no yeah vitamin E.

1:22:07

I take something

1:22:11

called a whole fruit coffee extract.

1:22:14

It's not caffeine it's it's

1:22:16

from the actual coffee fruit

1:22:18

and it's a potent up regulator of BDNF

1:22:20

which gives you more neuroplasticity.

1:22:22

Yeah so that brain just staying

1:22:25

young and you know having that ability

1:22:27

to learn new skills a lot easier and

1:22:30

being more sort of mood regulated

1:22:32

right with neuroplasticity. So I take

1:22:34

that I will

1:22:36

sometimes take 5-HTP

1:22:38

to manage serotonin right in

1:22:41

the for the most. That's something my a gynecologist

1:22:43

told me a while ago is like just be on 5-HTP like

1:22:46

I don't know if this is good

1:22:48

advice or bad advice but or like when you're on your period

1:22:50

especially

1:22:51

as a woman.

1:22:52

Yeah so it's a mood regulator potent like

1:22:54

it just keeps you sort of grounded in the middle right.

1:22:57

Is that

1:22:59

something you'd want your needs to take? So

1:23:02

her particular issue was a dopamine. Okay right

1:23:04

so we took L-theanine right.

1:23:06

But if I went and my

1:23:08

results came back and said that my serotonin had issues

1:23:10

you might be like get on the 5-HTP. So

1:23:13

first thing I would say is heal your gut.

1:23:15

Let's do it now let's again functional thinking

1:23:17

as opposed to masking let's fix the

1:23:19

system.

1:23:20

You make you so first thing is actually fix your

1:23:22

sleep and second thing is fix your gut in tandem probably

1:23:25

because you make your serotonin in your

1:23:27

second half of your sleep and your gut and

1:23:29

like 80% of it is made at that time. Is it

1:23:31

true that Chinese medicine thing that each hour of the night

1:23:33

heals a different part of your

1:23:35

different organ? So it's kind

1:23:37

of here the simplest way to break it down is like this

1:23:39

the first half of your sleep think

1:23:41

of your sleep in two halves you actually sleep

1:23:44

in these 90 minute cycles which are actually

1:23:47

two one and a half hour up and

1:23:49

down up and down.

1:23:51

So in the first half

1:23:53

it's recovery so it's

1:23:56

dealing with everything that happened the day before. So

1:23:58

glymphatic drainage your brain. is draining all toxins,

1:24:01

truly getting rid of them, lymphatic drainage, everything comes

1:24:03

out,

1:24:04

glutathione, methylation, all the

1:24:06

detox processes are happening that

1:24:08

deal with the nonsense of the day before.

1:24:10

The second half is preparation.

1:24:12

So you're making your hormones, you're making your neurochemicals,

1:24:15

you're getting ready for the next day.

1:24:18

And that's kind of the two big half. So the people that can't fall

1:24:20

asleep on time have a toxic burden.

1:24:22

The people that can't stay asleep

1:24:25

have a mood and behavior and preparation

1:24:27

burden, two different problems to solve. Then there's people

1:24:29

that can't deal with toxins that

1:24:32

sleep through the night, but they wake up

1:24:34

not feeling rested because they're sleeping

1:24:36

on a memory foam mattress and breathing

1:24:38

in off casting of those little micro bubbles.

1:24:40

Or they have some chemicals in their air

1:24:43

vents or whatever. But they put on a bunch of face

1:24:45

creams before they go to bed and just poison

1:24:48

them. So the exact time where their body's

1:24:50

wanting to detoxify, they're adding

1:24:52

an additional load where they can't do the

1:24:54

job that they were supposed to do.

1:24:56

I mean, there are cosmetics that are like detox

1:24:58

cream. Like the shit

1:25:01

they're allowed to put on labels. Yeah.

1:25:04

There's a, I posted, you probably

1:25:06

saw this video if you're watching me while you go to sleep every

1:25:08

night, every night. There's a video I

1:25:10

posted of a congresswoman

1:25:12

interviewing the director of the FDA.

1:25:15

And you saw that one. So she

1:25:17

asked her all these questions that are mind blowing.

1:25:19

Everybody go watch that video. She

1:25:22

basically asked her, is there any FDA

1:25:24

regular oversight on

1:25:26

what toxins are allowed to be in cosmetics? She said

1:25:28

no.

1:25:29

Is there any regulatory oversight on

1:25:31

like recalls? She said no. She's what about

1:25:33

a children's product? She said no.

1:25:35

And it's like, no, we don't look at this stuff.

1:25:37

Baby powder was, I mean, easily, I mean, so

1:25:39

toxic. Johnson and Johnson was just sued

1:25:41

for billions and billions of class action lawsuit because

1:25:44

of baby powder. Those babies grew up. Yeah.

1:25:46

And they're pissed. Yeah. And

1:25:50

so what happened cancer?

1:25:52

Why the

1:25:53

way you get talc, which is what they

1:25:55

make, you know, talcum baby powder out of it

1:25:57

grows right next to asbestos.

1:26:00

That's how you find it in nature.

1:26:02

So if you are a massive industrial, you

1:26:04

know, like we need giant shovels that

1:26:06

scoop this stuff up, you're not separating the asbestos.

1:26:09

And this is why this claim over

1:26:11

does baby powder cause cancer? Again,

1:26:14

the studies will show you know, because

1:26:15

they're going to study a perfect sample that came out of

1:26:17

the lab

1:26:18

versus go buy a bottle from CVS and

1:26:20

sprinkle it onto the lab Petri dish and you're going to find

1:26:22

asbestos.

1:26:23

Because that's the way it's mine. They just happened in Mother

1:26:25

Nature to just come up next to each other. All

1:26:30

right.

1:26:31

You'll know I just totally renovated my house.

1:26:33

I worked my butt off to have a very

1:26:35

cute bathroom that I can take pregnant nudes in.

1:26:38

And you know what ruins every bathroom,

1:26:41

nudie and ugly toothbrush in the background

1:26:43

drives me.

1:26:44

nuts. Okay, you buy a pretty candle,

1:26:47

pretty cup to put your toothbrush in. And

1:26:49

then it sticks out like those five hour energy

1:26:51

shots at 7-11. Why do

1:26:53

all toothbrushes have to look like

1:26:55

they were wrapped by the NASCAR guy? Who

1:26:58

does the car? Like why do they all have that neon

1:27:01

green you can only find on a YouTuber's

1:27:03

energy drink? Like why does every toothbrush

1:27:05

have to look like it was made by someone on acid

1:27:08

who just

1:27:08

got off work at Claire's? I don't

1:27:10

get it. Is it so much asked to have a

1:27:13

gorgeous classy toothbrush that travels

1:27:15

with you without becoming a tiny wet market

1:27:17

in your makeup bag? Is it? No.

1:27:21

Used to be no more enter

1:27:23

quip toothbrushes and

1:27:25

dental care. Look at this. Look at this toothbrush. How

1:27:28

is it? It's downright sexy.

1:27:30

Let's be honest. Maybe I shouldn't say that because it's great for

1:27:32

kids too. But look at this toothbrush. Look

1:27:34

at how sensual that is. Look at just go

1:27:36

sleek, smooth design.

1:27:39

I would buy this even if it wasn't a toothbrush.

1:27:41

If it was just like an object dial.

1:27:44

Okay,

1:27:44

it is lightweight, sleek design, no

1:27:47

wires, no bulky chargers to

1:27:49

weigh you down. Reusable handles and a range

1:27:51

of sleek metal cues. They're not colors.

1:27:54

They're fuse. Okay.

1:27:56

There's a difference. Skip the batteries. Snap

1:27:59

into healthy.

1:27:59

habits with a new rechargeable

1:28:02

electric toothbrush. The charge also lasts

1:28:05

three months. Hey Apple take

1:28:07

a hint

1:28:08

from Quip. There's

1:28:10

also the new water flosser. This is

1:28:12

a no freaking stop

1:28:15

no more flossing with hair. No

1:28:18

more grabbing hair out of your drain and using that to

1:28:20

floss. Okay no more the stupid

1:28:22

little flossers the ones that by the way are

1:28:24

horrible for the environment those plastic individual ones

1:28:27

that also pop the first time you use them.

1:28:29

Okay

1:28:29

the other ones you got to wrap around your finger

1:28:32

and then you give yourself

1:28:33

you know leprosy. Your fingers

1:28:35

about to fall off from lack of circulation.

1:28:38

This water flosser from Quip is a game-changer.

1:28:40

It hits all the right spots with gentle or

1:28:42

deep clean pressure at the touch of

a button extra wide lid that fits

1:28:46

right into the faucet and fills up in seconds.

1:28:48

The cordless rechargeable battery lasts up to eight

1:28:50

weeks. Longer than most relationships

1:28:54

with daily use. Eight weeks no bulky

1:28:56

charging dock no tangled cords.

1:28:58

I just found out that floss has all kinds of nasty

1:29:00

chemicals in it too. So you should switch to this

1:29:58

the good habits company.

1:30:00

I used to before

1:30:02

like going to the club.

1:30:05

You would take baby powder dude

1:30:07

and just put it

1:30:08

under your armpits, put

1:30:10

it in your panties, let's go. Like

1:30:12

I'm not going to sweat. And I play basketball

1:30:14

really like super serious. We would just cover

1:30:17

ourselves in baby powder.

1:30:19

We did. And this is in a nutshell is the thing. You

1:30:21

did that because

1:30:24

everybody believes if it's on the shelf,

1:30:25

they wouldn't let this poisonous

1:30:28

thing be at CVS. That's

1:30:30

America. Yeah. So just

1:30:32

know that it's America and

1:30:34

it's probably poison if it's on the

1:30:36

shelf. Right. So

1:30:39

you have to reverse your thinking, which is do

1:30:42

your own diligence. Go learn. Watch the videos

1:30:44

that you're watching. There's also some great apps that will

1:30:46

like if you stand the barcode will tell you

1:30:48

if something's. I mean, most things. There's

1:30:50

an app called Yuka. Yuk

1:30:53

environmental working group. You can go spend a lot of

1:30:56

time on the website. They actually

1:30:58

list thousands of products, environmental working group.

1:31:00

We have a government body called

1:31:02

the Environmental Protection Agency, which just keeps approving

1:31:05

things that are killing us. So don't rely on that. Go

1:31:08

to the private entity, which is called Environmental Working Group.

1:31:10

And you'll find you can search most products

1:31:12

and it'll tell you how toxic it actually is.

1:31:15

But Yuka, again, I've heard from a lot

1:31:17

of people, amazing information. Can you spell

1:31:18

that? Why you? There's

1:31:20

one thing I missed. Oh,

1:31:24

sorry. What this

1:31:26

future of artificial fertility. Yeah.

1:31:30

I mean, now that I'm carrying a child, I'm kind of for it. I'm

1:31:32

worried about growing babies in a mason jar.

1:31:39

Yeah, this is it's scary. It's

1:31:42

exciting because how many women are

1:31:44

struggling that want that answer. So why

1:31:46

are they struggling? That's the

1:31:48

bigger question is like, okay, fertility is down

1:31:51

and we need to now make babies in a lab. But

1:31:53

it's like, no, no, why? This is exactly what the handmaid's

1:31:55

tale is about. Yeah. This is exactly what the handmaid's

1:31:57

tale is about. Is that all the chemicals made women

1:31:59

in.

1:31:59

fertile and there were some that were still fertile so they had

1:32:02

to imprison them to be able to keep making babies

1:32:04

because pollution got so bad. And the women

1:32:07

and the men, right? So men are getting

1:32:09

overly asked. And the frogs are gay now. I mean, do

1:32:11

we got to do something? Yeah.

1:32:13

Alex Jones is livid. He's going

1:32:16

to blow a gasket if we don't get these frogs

1:32:18

straightened out. So that happened

1:32:20

with the frogs, right?

1:32:22

So what's happening now with

1:32:24

artificial fertility is

1:32:26

there's actual womb factories in Europe, by

1:32:28

the way. Yeah. Dude,

1:32:32

I still can't deal with

1:32:34

the idea of a blood bank that already stresses me

1:32:36

out that there's a building full of blood. A

1:32:39

womb

1:32:40

store is really too much. So

1:32:42

if you like the wise behind this, the

1:32:45

why we're hearing is to help women with infertility.

1:32:47

But if you know, so if you Google Google

1:32:50

today right now,

1:32:51

sperm count 2045, Google that.

1:32:54

What you're going to see is this is coming from Google

1:32:57

and many scientific articles is not conspiracy theory

1:32:59

territory that by 2045 sperm count is zero.

1:33:01

There's

1:33:05

no fertility in males anymore.

1:33:07

According to the

1:33:08

current trend. It doesn't

1:33:09

mean they'll stop cheating. It doesn't mean lower

1:33:12

testosterone. It

1:33:14

just means shooting blanks. That's what it means. And

1:33:16

guys might love this. Yeah. I mean,

1:33:18

there has to be a male birth control at some point.

1:33:21

Yeah. So I think there's one in development, but this is

1:33:23

happening. So male fertility has been dropping

1:33:25

by 1% for some time.

1:33:26

That has now jumped to 2.64%. So

1:33:29

it's taken a massive leap. And

1:33:31

the belief is at the 1% level that

1:33:33

by 2045, there'll be zero fertility. But

1:33:35

at the 2.64% level, which it actually is now,

1:33:38

it's going to happen sooner.

1:33:39

There's zero male fertility. And

1:33:41
