You're about to receive responsible, life changing information on health and nutrition. You'll
hear from Invite professionals who are leaders and targeted and anti aging nutrition. Get
ready for tomorrow's Nutritional Science Today right here, right now. Good morning,
everybody. Thank you for joining me on this voyage through nutrition, and today's
show is going to be a little bit different than any event. Welcome to
this program. My name is Jerry Hicky. I'm a nutritionally oriented pharmacist.
I have a lot of training and nutrition and in pharmacy, and it's always
an honor and privilege to be able to share my knowledge with you. So
we talk about the best of the best of nutrition, and usually we focus
on supplements. We talk about supplements with a great deal of research and sides
behind them that are very useful and very safe, with a great deal of
credibility, great deal of utility. But today's going to be different, and
it's because I had a conversation with one of my friends earlier this week and
he was feeling tired, and he thought he was kind of having a little
problem with a couple of things, including his memory. So because I'm a
trained as a pharmacist and I have a background in toxicology and bio chemistry,
et cetera, I discussed his drugs with him and lo and behold, he's
taking a couple of drugs that would affect his memory, that would make him
sleepy, that would make his brain sluggish. They called they're different types of
drugs. One drug was used for depression, another drug was used for pain.
And the problem is that when you use them together, it's really going
to affect an older person. It's really going to affect the memory. It's
really going to make them feel fatigued. So I said, listen, you
know I can't change your drugs. You have to talk to your doctor.
But here are some options. And then I gave him some supplements out of
options. To him, I say, go work with your pharmacists, go
work with your doctor. You're my friend. I love you. So he
hasn't gotten back to me yet. You know, these things don't work,
They don't work their way out within You know, you don't solve these things
in a couple of days. Usually when you have to deal with you know,
doctors, et cetera, because you know, you have to go through
whatever sequence service. But now, in the event, let's get back to
this. Today, we're talking about drugs that are really becoming a problem in
older people that can affect their memory, that can affect a lot of things.
And they don't necessarily have to be on these drugs. They're brain slowing
drugs. They have other problems too, and they are all kinds of drugs.
And here's the problem. These drugs have been connected with Alzheimer's disease.
These drugs have been connected with a lot of problems in aging people, including
falling and hurting themself and walking around feeling sluggish, but literally connected with Alzheimer's
disease. His research actually absolutely proving us. So the problem is these drugs
are commonly prescribed even in aging people. In fact, many aging people might
be on two or three of these drugs at once, you using one at
night and two in the daytime, and they're not aware of it. They
have a type of side effect that the drug manufacturers don't want, but it's
inherent to the clisse of drugs. Called an anticholinergic effect. And here's the
problem. Doctors are not typically trained to recognize the problems with aging people in
these drugs. They're not trained to avoid these drugs, prescribing these drugs and
older people. So it's a real issue. So these are brain slowing drugs
that you're better off avoiding if you have an option, and I'm going to
give you some options today. So not only are the doctors not trained to
avoid prescribing these drugs and older people, the ads, et cetera kind of
promote using them. So it's very risky for us older adults. Now am
I an older adult? Yeah? I joined. I joined the crowd.
I turned seventy last week. How do I feel like I'm thirty five?
I'm not kidding you. My brain feels sharp. I don't think I have
memory problems yet. Do I think i'll have them? It doesn't seem to
be an issue. Doesn't seem to be I'm certainly not going to develop Alzheimer's,
but I don't seem to have an issue with my memory yet. I'm
learning stuff all the time and I remember it physically well, physically, like
if I sit for a long time and I get up. I'm stiff,
like my legs are a little stiff in my back, stiff, but you
know, I walk a little bit, it's gone. I'm fine. In
fact, I play pickle ball typically two or three times a week. I
go to the gym typically three times a week, and I'm really pumping.
I'm using good weights and doing a lot of reps. I walk with my
wife typically three four five miles a day. I mean we're very active.
We're very active. We do all kinds of brain teasing games and we're always
learning and we're doing good. In fact, I'm really enjoying my older years,
my golden years. So you know, stay active, stay active socially,
stay active physically, stay active mentally. That's really good advice. That's
not my only advice. You know, if you're a regular listener, I
give a lot of advice on food and nutrients, et cetera. But those
things are important. Sleep is important. So these drugs are actually linked to
causing Alzheimer's, and it's a whole bunch of different classes of drugs, and
I'm going to give you options. So they're widely prescribed, and they're anti
coolinergic, they're anticholinergic activity, which means they block a setyl coling. Now,
setyl collin is very active in the brain and acetyl colin is very active
in the body. It's part of the sympathetic parasympathetic nervous system. So the
problem is that blocking a setyle colding in the body leads to constipation. Now,
who wants to walk around with that stuff. In fact, there are
some studies that link chronic constipation to an increased risk of colon cancer. But
you know, it's just really uncomfortable that it's not healthy to be carrying around
that load. So anticholinergic drugs cause constipation. Anti col energic drugs caused dry
mouth. That might not sound bad, but it's bad because well, dry
mouth does lead to bad breath, yeah, but it also leads to gum
disease, loose teeth, losing your teeth, but also increased risk of infection
because don't forget, there are germs all around, viruses, bacteria, parasites,
all these different things, and you have stuff in your saliva that's antimicrobial,
like mayellow peroxidasis that kill viruses. So if you don't have saliva,
you have an inconstration of getting infections. So these drugs cause dry mouth.
Dry mouth syndrome can be a real problem. Now the other thing they cause
dry eyes. So you know your eyes could get scratch you could scratch your
cornia. Your eyes could get inflamed and red and irritated and even have eye
pain if they're dry. There's dry eye syndrome. Not a good thing.
And the other thing is these drugs affect your memory. So a setyle colling
in a brain, these drugs block a setle coin. And there are all
kinds of drugs. Chances are you're on one of these drugs. Setyle colling
in a brain allows brain cells to communicate, so it allows you to learn,
It allows you to remember, It allows the brain to heal. It
allows the brain to create new pathways when you're learning something new so that you
remember it, but also at night when you're going to deep sleep. But
setle coin is part and parcel of creating new memory cells. Every night you're
supposed to create new memory cells when you go to deep sleep. You need
a seatle colling for that. So these drugs block that, and they have
in research been established to be a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. And like
I said, there wildly just prescribed. So who should not be on them,
Well, the elderly, anybody who is afraid of memory loss, anybody
who's afraid of Alzheimer's, anybody who has some memory loss, anybody who has
mild cognitive impayment, or somebody who has alzheimer It's going to make the disease
go faster, it's going to make the symptoms worse. Okay, So let's
discuss these drugs and what are suitable alternatives. Okay. The first category of
drugs that affect a seatyle coline. We're talking about drugs that really mess with
your memory, are powerful antihistamines, the kind that make you sleepy. So
a great example of this is the drug benadryl, which is also known generically
as diephen hybrimine. Now, people use this for sleep, people use this
for allergies, people use this in coffin, cold medicine, and flu medicine.
They use it for itchy skin. And the problem is it is such
a powerful anticholinergic, it's such a powerful blocker of aceetal colin that if you
stand it even for a month or more, it has caused you to lose
memory that you're not going to get back. You're not going to get back,
so what do you do well? Naturally, there are ingredients that help
with the symptoms of croffs and colds and the flu and itchy skin and allergies.
We have a product called Respiratory HX where we mix stinging nettles and quarstin
mangestine and vitamin C and it's been very, very successful in helping people with
allergies, you know, like the alergies get in the spring in the fall,
with cold symptoms like running nose. Some people even use it to help
them snore at night, help them stop snoring at night, which I've never
used, but I've had a couple of people report to me that helps them.
They were using it at night for their allergies. They were taking three
capsules with a little snack before bedtime and it helped them breathe. It was
opening up their sinuses and perhaps because of that, they weren't snoring as much.
So Benadryl is a problem. Benadryl is a problem and a clear good
choice to replace benadrol is Respiratory HX or any supplement with a mix high quality
stinging nettles with corstins. Stinging nettles is a plant. Courstin, on the
other hand, is a flavonoid that you find in very healthy foods like broccoli
and galic and onions and green tea and things like that, cocoa berries like
blueberries and blackberries. Problem is, you don't get enough quercetin and food to
help you with allergies. You need at least like two hundred and fifty milligrams
that are sitting to help you with allergies. So I tell people with allergies,
instead of using benadryl, which is bad for your brain and has been
connected through research to Alzheimer's disease, use respiratory HX, which is safe for
the brain. It has no problem with the brain. It doesn't close dry
mouth, it doesn't close dry eyes, and it doesn't close constipation. Now
let's go to a break. We're a little bit or early. We're having
a big sale. They're having a President's Day sale at Invite all of the

problems for your memory and older people are called they have anti coldenergic side effects.
So it's a whole different category of drugs. There's all different I should
say it is all different categories of drugs. So we're only talking about drugs
with strong antiquolinergic activity. Does hundreds of drugs what we can't take call allergic
activities where if you're using two or three of those, it's a problem for
your memory. So that's another discussion. So the first one I said was
benadryl for itchy skin, for sleep, for allergies, And I said,
hey, if it's for allergies or itchy skin or calson fluid, try respiratory
HX. It should be very helpful. And by the way, if you
want to get rid of allergies long term, use the correct probiotic mixture.
The ENVII probiotic checks. When I designed that personally, I design it for
people with allergies, not just for digestive health and breast health and all those
other things that you expect a good probiotic to do for you, but also
getting rid of allergies, really making the allergies so inconsequential that you don't even
care about them, where you might just get a niche eye once in a
while or a little sneeze once in a while. Okay, I'm really talking
about that. So if you have allergies, go on probiotic HS, take
one day every day for six months and for ninety for most of you,
the allergies are really going to clear up dramatically, dramatically. Now, it's
not a treatment for the allergies. If you have allergy symptoms today, it
doesn't clear that up. What it does over time is get rid of theologies.
It gets at the core of the allergy problem. So it's not just
for the symptoms that you're experiencing today like Egi's, but long term it's to
get rid of the alogies. Why because it trains the immune system, mostly
your immune systems in your intestines and stomach. It trains the immune system to
ignore things you're allergic to, and that has a profound effect on analogy.
So if you have allergies, get on probatic HX, take it every day
for like six months. After that, take a refresher those like two or
three times a week like I do do I take it every day. I
take it like three maybe four times a week. I take probiotics. That's
enough because they're already well established in me, and I eat a really good
diet. But probatic back to does value off in older people. We don't
know why yet, but great deal of research on millions of people basically proves
to me that as we age, for some reason, we get rid of
the good bacteria to bid bacteria takeover, which are really bid fair health,
and it's one of the things that really causes problems in aging. So everybody
older, even though without allergies, should be on a probatic anyway. Now,
the second category of drugs that are commonly prescribed by your doctor that you're
probably on are the nighttime versions of like cold treatments and painkillers like thailanoil PM,
advil PM, or niquill which is used for cooff cold and flu.
These really have an impact on your brain because once again they're using powerful antihistamines
that block the ctylcholine function in the brain. That causes you to lose brain
memory cells, specifically brain memory cells. It will damage your mind me.
So, what's a good option. Respiratory HX. If you need help at
night with breathing, take respiratory HX. We talked. We spoke about that
before. For people with allergies, Respiratory HX take three capsules with a snack
before bedtime. It's very safe. It'll help with your allergies, it will
help with your nighttime breathing. But what about a nighttime painkiller. Oh,
that's easy. Biokirkman five ox is a nighttime painkiller that works easily as well
as tail and ol PM. It works easily as well as tilan old PM
or adile PM. So take two or three biocurcumen with your dinner. It's
great for your brain, it's great for your memory. It's great for your
calon. It's great for your aches and pains. It's great for pain,
it's great for your memory. So just the opposite. The nighttime painkillers like
the talon ol PM and the adile PM are bad for your brain, whereas
the Biocirrikman five ox, which is equally as effective for pain and is very
safe, is actually good for your brain. We'll talk about that a little
bit more in a little while. Now. A third category of drugs that
really is bad for your brain are the sleeping drugs sleep bates, for instance,
unism unisum is very bad for the brain. So what's a better option.
Well, some of you need melotonin. Melotonin will work fine, take
it like an hour before bedtime. Some of you the mineral magnesium will do
it. Magnesium is very good for anxiety. It's very good for brain energy,
but it's also good for sleep. It's good for the immune system,
it's good for your bones, it's good for digestion. I mean, it's
good for so many things. Others can use. Volarian Valerian is an herb
and it's very good for calming you down. Now, if you were if
you walked into a pharmacy in the nineteen twenties or nineteen thirties, and you
were you couldn't sleep at night, or you were nervous and anxious, they
would have given you the herb valarian. But later on when the drug company
Roche Roche Labs came out, they came out with a drug called diazepam.
Diazepam can be used for anxiety for stressed people, but also for sleep.
So they said, let's name it after the plant valerian, so they call
it valium. Valium is named after a plant called valarium. So Valarian will
help you sleep, Magnesium will help you sleep. Melatona will help you sleep.
You can try any one of those. You can even combine them.
It's very safe to combine if you're anxious that night. U CBD can have
a dialol use invite high quality CBD. It's very pure. It'll help you
sleep at night. So you don't have to take these sleep aids that really
mess with your with your with your memory. Now, other sleep aids can
make you full, like like valuum. I'll prozzle them drugs like that.
They can make you full. Get up at night, you have to go
to the bathroom and you fall down and you break your hip, or you
hit your head and you damage your skull, or you hurt your knee.
I'm not good. So yeah, the supplements won't do that. If you
take melotonin, magnesium, valerian or CBD and you wake up night at night
and you have to go to the bathroom, it's a lot safer. Now,
another category of drugs that's extremely bad for the brain are the drugs for
an overactive bladder. People would urge in continents. Like a common one is
oxybutinin, which is called dietrapan, but another one is day troll or vesicare.
These drugs will make you sleepy, they'll make your brain fuzzy. They
can make you dizzy, you could fall over and break your hip, you
could trip. But also they will damage your memory. They will ir reverse.
If you use those drugs every day for a month, you've lost brain
cells. You've lost you've already lost brain cells. So what's a great option.
Well, there's pelvic floor exercises that will help you control your bladder.
But bladder HX. Bladder HX works. We have hundreds and hundreds of clients
on it. Sadly, I mean that's how it is. There's a lot
of research on the ingredients in bladder HX. In bladder HX, there's a
combination of things like isoflavonoids and three leaf caper you know capers, and the
combination taken on a daily basis, surely, slowly but surely helps get your
bladder under control. Again, we have a stack of letters and emails.
Usually we get emails. Today we don't get letters anymore. In the old
days, we used to get letters. People would write a letter, I
love your product. That's been so good for my heart or my bladder and
my blood pressure or my sleep, or my energy or my brain. You
know, we used to get letters. Now we get emails, but that's
easier, right, So we have a collection of letters and now emails of
people who had bladder problems, Like one guy. Very interesting. He said
he goes to pubs with his friends and he had a bear and he'd have
to run for the bathroom. And he says, now he could sit through
two bears and not run to the bathroom. That's an interesting use for bladdery
jacks. Let you drink more beer. I'm just being snarky there. He
could sit and have two beers while his friend's getting up and running to the
bathroom. So he said, it's clearly been helpful. I've had other people
tell me they used to get up two or three times a night. And
I even had guys who are prostate problems where the prostate problem was cleared up,
but they were still getting up at night. And I turned around to
one of my nutritions, turned around and said to them, well, maybe
you have a bladder problem. Try to blatterer ate CHEX. And all of
a sudden they weren't getting up at night anymore. So they went on prostenate
HX because they had a prostate problem, and instead of going to the bathroom
four times a night, maybe they were just going twice a night. But
they were going twice a night, which kind of upset me. And I
said, well, try bladder HX. And they'd call me in like like
a month or two and said, this is amazing. I'm taking the prostate
checks into bladder ATEX. I don't have to get up for the bathroom at
a wool at night. I could sleep six or seven hours undisturbed. It's
been fantastic. It turns out that a great majority of the men who have
prostate problems also have bladder problems, but they've never been diagnosed. It's been
undisclosed that they have bladder problems and the doctor isn't addressing that, so they
still get up at night to urinate. So it's been very safe for men
to go into bladder HX. It doesn't raise their blood pressure, it doesn't
affect their eye pressure, it doesn't affect their brain, and it works and
make them constipated. It just helps their bladder function better. Your bladder is
like a canteen, like a muscular canteen that holds the urine. Otherwise you'd
be leaking urine all the time, which would not be good because predators would
be able to track you like that. So of course animals have to create
bladders, so you're not going to the bathroom all time, you're not leaking
all the time. The problem is in older people, the bladder muscle,
the detruser muscle, is not functioning well, or their nerves are not functioning
well and they're leaking. They have to run to the bathroom. They can't
sit through a James Bond movie. They have to get up halfway through the
or run to the bathroom, or they can't sit through dinner. If they're
taking a walk, they have to plant out places where there's a bathroom while
they're taking a walk because they know they're going to have an issue that you
know they're going to have to run to the bathroom or get greatly embarrassed.
So it's been great for men with prostate problems because a lot of them will
also have bladder problems. But a lot of women. I've had women able
to get off dietrapan which made them constipated and like some of them had glack
hollon. It was affecting you vision and instead they're going on our bladder y
checks and it's been very safe and it's working. So how does it work.
It slowly but surely helps heal the nerves and the bladder and helps the
bladder muscle have tone again so that you can hold your urine. See you're
not leaking, you're not running for the bathroom. Some people leak. Other
people have to run for the bathroom because they have urging continents. They know
they're going to explode and your innate all over the place. It helps both,
but it takes a little time where the drug works within like a week
but the drug will destroy your brain. The bladder y checks takes time to
work. That gets better and better every week until about the one month or
two month point where it really kicks in and you're just fully under control.
So if you mix that with the cagel pelvic floor exercises you and you take
the bladder y checks, it'll it'll work as well as the drugs without damaging
your memory. So we're talking today about drugs that damage your memory, that
are very bad for all the people. But they we're still getting prescribed from
millions of US soldar adults. And there are options, real options for these
drugs, and I'm giving you the options. And the beauty of it is
all these options are on sale because we're having our President's Day sale. It's
been ongoing because there's a lot of presidents at Lincoln to Washington. And the
thing we shouldn't forget these people. They were very important for our history.
The thing is that it's on until Monday at twelve pm. And any invite
product you buy two bottles, including all the products I'm talking about now,
anything with an invite label on it, you buy two bottles of that product.
You get forty percent off suggested retail. And of course, if we
ship it to you and it's thirty five dollars or more, we had Invite
paid the shipping. We paid a shipping for you. So that's a great
deal, So take advantage. The President's Day sale is on now. I'm
going to go to a break. When we come back, we're going to
talk about three or four more classes of medicine. You're probably on some of
these medicines that will destroy brain and destroy your memory and even increase your risk
of developing dementias, including Alzheimer's disease, which is the most common form of
dementia. We'll be right back. Cherry. Hey, you Invite Health.

welcome back, Jerry Hicky for Invite Health, and like I mentioned before,
we're having our President's Day sale, big sale for us. Now quick
recap. We're talking about drugs that affect the memory that are very bad and
older people. They really should be used in older people, but doctors are
not trained to recognize this and deal with it. And there are real options
for these drugs. You don't necessarily have to go on these drugs. So
there's drugs for nausea, drugs for nausea like antivert mechlausine that's the other name
for it, or dramamine which is dive di menhydronate. They're really not suitable
for older people. Now some people have to use them, some people might
have vertigo. If you have to use it, try to get to the
lowest dose possible and use it as less frequently as possible. Use it just
whenever you need it, okay, because you certainly don't want to suffer with
vertigo. But there are like physical therapies that help vertigo. Al CAHR with
ALA can help vertigo. I'll get into that in a minute. So you
may not be able to totally avoid these drugs, but use them sparingly and
have the lowest dose where it'll give you a good effect. So for motion
sickness, I believe it or not a great cure for motion sickness. You're
out in a boat. A sandwich. I'm telling you. If you're out
in the boat and you get emotion sickness, eat a sandwich. But ginger
can help that, Okay, Ginger can help that. Commonly used ginger as
very Ginger's great forel liver. There's seven or eight ingredients and ginger that a
great feel liver. But ginger is really good for nausea. It's helpful with
motion sickness. But what about vertigo where the room spin around? I mean
that's horrible. Sometimes that's drugs causing vertigo, Like if you're on some of
the drugs I already mentioned, like venadrol that could close vertigo type side effects,
or if they lower your blood pressure too much, or some of the
cofferent cold and flu drugs, or sleeping pills or pills for anxiety, they
can make you feel like it's vertigo. So if you're all of a sudden
suffering with vertigo and you don't know why and recently start a new drug,
check out what your pharmacist if it's the drug. But over time, seeing
a neurologists to prescribe physical therapy for vertigo and alcohol with ala they can help
vertigo. Now, alcohol with ALA is amazing because a lot of the drugs
that can cause memory problems can be avoided by using alcohol with ALA. And
we'll get into that in a couple of minutes. Alcohol and ALA are two
things natural to humans. Their levels drop with age. They're really important for
burning fat converting fat net energy. So if you lack them, you gain
fat on your belly, and if you have them, you have more muscle
than fat, Like you might gain ten pounds of muscle and lose ten pounds
of fat. That's a huge difference. But the other thing is they're really
important for the brain. They protect a brain. Now this is an important
issue. As we age, the protective mechanisms in the brain stop working effectively,
things like cyproxid dismutastic and gludeothine peroxidase. These are enzyme system antioxidants that
are supposed to defend your brain, and they kind of really stop, start
to stop, really start to drop in their protective effect in the brain,
and like in your fifties and by the time you're about sixty or sixty five,
they're pretty much gone. So it's a lot easier to lose brain cells,
brain cells from pollution, brain cells from alcohol, brain cells just from
aging, brain cells from infection, whatever it might be. Brain cells from
these drugs that we're trying to avoid that we're talking about avoiding on this program,
the anticholinergic drugs. So alcohol with ALA brings back protection in the brain.
The ALA is super protected for brain cells, and alcohol prevents brain cells
from dyeing. It blocks apoptosis in the brain to death of brain cells,
but also allows brain cells to feed. You don't want, you know,
they call Alzheimer's diabetes of the brain. When you get the alcohol with ALA
and diabetes, the body can't use sugar for energy in the brain. With
Alzheimer's, you can't use sugar for energy. Alcohol with ALA restores metabolism the
brain, the ability of the brain to use calories and sugar for energy,
because that is the number one source of energy in the brain. It's not
protein, it's not fats, it's carbohydrates. So alcohol with ALA protect the
brain. They replace the enzyme system antioxidants that aren't working effectively in people over
fifty and certainly over sixty. They help prevent the death of brain cells.
They block apoptosis in the brain cells, They feed the brain, but they
also allow the brain to create a setyle coling. So these drugs block a
setyl colon, and that's how they increase your risk of memory loss in Alzheimer's
disease, whereas alcohol with ALA actually improve a setyl colon. Alcohol has a
setyl l carnity and acetyl l qranity, and that's what starts stands for.
It is the acetyl group to a B vitamin called colin, and you create
a setal colin in your brain. So that's fantastic. That's fantastic. So
alcohol with Ala help heal the brain, including parts of the brain involved with
balance and your internal GPS, et cetera. And that can help over time
get your vertigo under control. That can help even people with minyear syndrome in
the ear, they can make them dizzy. The alcohol with Ala over time
can help to a degree reverse minhear syndrome. And also by the way tonights
which is ringing in the ear, it may be ringing, it may be
humming, some kind of buzzing sound in the ear, they're roll the stand
the world tonight as the brain is hearing sound when there's no sound to be
heard. That's why it's worse at night, or worse when you're in a
quiet room. Alcohol with Ala is one of the things that helps reverse tonightis
so there's a lot of things that's doing for the brain. And in fact,
people who come in to see me who are having brain energy issues,
I put them on alcohol with ALA and I put them on creatine monohydrate and
that really solves the brain memory issues. And I have to tell you this,
and this is a story that's true. I was sitting in front of
my TV set h ten years ago and I was exhausted. I had just
done my second radio show for that Saturday morning. It was a Saturday morning,
so I already had like twenty or thirty radio shows that I already did
that week, right, So I was exhausted, literally exhausted, and I
said to myself, I'm working Monday through Friday. I really need to get
exercise today. I'm too tired to get off the colt and strangely, on
my coffee table in front of my TV set. I had one study and
it said older people are tired, not because their bodies tired. Older people
are tired because their brain is tired. I said, you know, my
body is not tired, it's my brain. It's fatigue. So over research,
over time, and yeah, great, multivibmen will like B one in
it and B twelve and all that that helps energy. But alcohol with ala
and creatine monohydrate, if your brain is fatigued, take those. I can
almost promise that you're going to get brain energy within a couple of days.
Like I take them all the time. Creating monohydrate, and we have a
very pure, non animal creatine monohydrate. You don't want an animal source of
creatine monohydrate because you don't know what these animals were fed and how they lived
and if they were diseased or not. So ours is the for vegetables.
It's creatine monohydrate. Normally I take a scoop after I lift weights or I
do a long walk because it re establishes muscle endurance. It's great for muscle
endurance, muscle power, muscle endurance. Right now, when I go to
the gym, I'm pumping. I really am pumping. I'll do three sets
of heavy weights. I love it. I feel great, but my muscles
get fatigued. I'm a seventy year old guy. I do the creatine after
it. It's not all I do, but I do creatine. And creatine
is also good for giving your brain stamina and energy. So if your brain
is fatigued, take a scoop of creatine and a glass of water in the
morning, or any liquid you get, orange juice, whatever you want.
Take your creatine on a hydrate and a scoop of liquid in a glass of
liquid, stir it and drink it. It's going to give your brain energy.
That and the alcohol with ala, and they're both good for your memory.
They're both good for your memory. So that's the way getting rid of
brain fatigue and all these stories brain fatigue. So take the alcohol with ala.
It'll help with brain energy. It'll help with brain fatigue. But alcohol
with ala slowly but surely help reverse memory loss or protect your memory so you
don't have memory loss or even improve day to day memory. So you're using
these drugs for you know, dizziness, et cetera. And alcohol with ala
over time can help dizziness. But they good for your brain to actually seed
the creation of new memory cells. They give you brain energy, They let
you create newer transmitters in your brain for memory, for logic, for problem
solving, for learning, for calming down. I mean, it's just amazing
for having brain energy, for relaxing the brain. So alcohol with ala really
helps offset if you have to take these drugs, you might want to take
alcohol with ala with these drugs to protect your brain from the drugs. So
if you have to take these drugs, add the alcohol with ala and it'll
help protect your brain from the drugs. Now, another category of drugs which
is bad for the brain are drugs for itching itching, skin allergy, itching
destroying antihistamines that you swallow like benedroll, which is diphen hydromine, or another
one is vistorol, which is hydroxyzene. First of all, if you have
itchy skin, it might just be dryness, so try a good moisturizer loaded
with antioxidants. It's great for itchy and flame skin. But once again,
respiratory HX if you have itchy skin. I spoke about respiratory HX before for
people who have coffin cold symptoms at night. I spoke about for people with
daytime allergies. I spoke about it helping some people with snoring. It's great
if you have itchy skin, but you need to take a little bit more.
So take three capsules three times a day with food. The thing is
the respiratory HX will not affect your brain. It will not hurt your brain.
The antihistamines that you take for itchy skin can hurt your brain. It's
not a good thing. Okay, let's keep on going. Medication for nerve
pain A lot of the old guard tricyclicant and depressants are used for nerve pain,
like Eleville which is amy tripling, or pamel ore which is nord tripling.
Okay, these are drugs commonly used for depression, so they use it
for nerve pain. Well. Alcohol with ala, which feeds the brain with
new memory cells and gives the brain energy and helps your memory, is great
for nerve pain. Alcohol with Ala is great for nerve pain. Okay,
even if you're on neuronton, which is gabapentin, you should also be on
alcohol with ala because it will offset the fatigue caused by the neuronton, which
is also called gabapentin. Neuronton is the trade name, Gabapentin is the generic
name. So I'm not saying that gabapentin, which is neuronton, will affect
your memory, but it'll make you fatigue. The alcohol with Ala can offset
the fatigue and help heal your nerves. Gabapentin doesn't heal the nerves. It
helps with nerve pain. Alcohol with Ala helps re establish nerve function. It
helps heal your nerves. That's been showing them and they've shown, they've proven
and a whole bunch of human clinical trials that alcohol with Ala helped protect you
from developing Alzheimer's. It helps protect you from developing Alzheimer's. So these drugs
can increase your risk of Alzheimer's. Alcohol with ALA can help prevent Alzheimer's.
So if you're using nerve pain medication, they use tricyclicate that depressing frequently.
These things rob you of brain memory cells. They can increase your risk of
dementia. Use the alcohol with ALA and if you need greater help for nerve
pain, add to bio curcumin five lox and these are great for nerve pain.
Biocurricumin five loxin is something that's great for back pain and neck pain.
It's great for arthritis pain like knee pain and hip pain, or finger pain,
even tendinitis or citis, et cetera. You could add the biocurcument five
locks into the alcohol with ALA. If you have nerve pain in your back
like sciatica, it'll help a great deal. It'll really help a great deal.
Now, another group of drugs we have to be very careful with and
people over fifty muscle relaxes like flexerals. Flexal is also a cyclo benzeprene cyclo
benzeprene. They use it commonly if you have back pain like listen. If
you have severe muscle spasms, you might have to go on a muscle relaxing
for a couple of days, but don't stick with it. They're dangerous drugs,
but they commonly use it for neck pain and back pain. Well,
what can you use instead of them? Biocurricument five lockxin stretching and walking.
So if you have neck pain or back pain, have your doctor prescribe physical
therapy so you can learn stretches and exercises to help with back pain and neck
pain. Walk Walking is a great sole for back pain. What makes back
pain worse? Sitting Sitting is the worst position for back pain. What helps
back pain stretching out, Walking stretches you well. So if you need a
muscle relax for back pain, think about bio Curricutman five. Lox I originally
created a buier Curricuman five box which works as well as advil or a leave
for back for arthritis pain. I originally developed it for people with rheumatoid arthritis
or ostro arthritis in their knees like these tennis players. So I originally created
a bio Curricuman five boxing for that, and it was doing a tremendous job
of helping our clients with back pain. I'd say fifty per it's probably our
most commonly purchased supplement, bier Kirkman five BLOCKX and has to be among our
top five best selling supplements. And I'd say half the people use it for
arthritis like knee pain or hip pain. The other half are using it for
back pain. Like we have a lot of chauffeurs and professional drivers who we're
sitting all the time. They get back pain. It's like you're squishing an
accordion, You're squishing your spine. So the bio Kirktman five lox is great
for that, and the Biocractment five LOCKXS is great for neck pain. So
if you have a cervical problem or getting cervical migraines or something. So that's
my answer to muscle relations. We have to go to a break. We're
having our President's Day sale. You buy two bottles of any invite supplement like
alcohol with ala for nerve pain or memory or brain energy, or creatine amount

welcome back, Jerry Hicky. It's the last segment of the program,
a quick review. We're talking about drugs that are commonly prescribed, all different
kinds of drugs, drugs for different things that are commonly prescribed that can rob
you of your memory, that has some serious impact on your memory, that
have been shown in human clinical trials to increase your risk of Alzheimer's, even
developing Alzheimer's, and certainly making Alzheimer's worse. So we went over a whole
bunch of drugs, like drugs you use at night for sleep, or drugs
you use for muscle pain, or all different kinds of drugs we spoke about.
So you want if you haven't heard the whole program, you might want
to hear this and you might want to tell your friends about it. These
drugs are commonly prescribed, and unfortunately many doctors are not trained to avoid these
drugs and older people, so it can rob you of your memory. So
I'm going to talk about one. There's a number of drugs for depression that
are bad for the brain. We spoke just a minute ago about tricyclic at
that depressing drugs. Now we're going to talk about one particular SSRR. There's
one particular ssrrid a commonly prescribed drug for depression and anxiety. It's called Paxel
peroxidine. That's due to generic name, and it's it's really commonly used for
anxiety and depression. Now, if you look up the side effects of peroxidine,
it'll say it causes liver problems, it causes kidney problems, it could
cause seizures, it could cause intestinal bleeding, it can increase eye pressure.
What else, Oh, it increases your risk of suicide, suicidal ideation,
So don't use it if you ever thought about suicide. But they don't talk
about peroxetine, which is Paxel causing Alzheimer's, increasing your risk of Alzheimer's,
losing memory, losing memory cells. They don't talk about it. But there
are really commonly used supplements that are great for anxiety or great for depression.
In fact, a lot of times people come in and we'll say to me,
Jerry, I'm on an antidepressant but it's really not working. What do
I do? And I'll say, well, add this to your antidepressant,
and I tell them I add either biocurcumin five loxin or alcohol with ala or
both. They're great for depression. If somebody has depression, what's a really
safe way to treat depression? Go outside and take a walk. I bet
you're for half the people with depression, half the people with depression, going
outside and taking a walk will cure the depression. And I'm not saying one
day, but you don't keep after it. Now. There's certain families where
there's indogenous depression. That's different. They have a true chemical imbalance. But
for most people, like you know, you might be depressed because you lost
your dog or something like that, or you lost your friend. That'll go
away. Good sadly it happened, but time heals. So to get over
that temporary depression, go outside, take a walk for half an hour,
two times a day. It's unbelievable how that treats depression. And not only
that, it's good for your back, it's good for your brain in general,
it's good for you, it's good for the whole body. The best
thing for fighting against aging. There's a lot of things that fight aging.
Taking a walk. Taking a walk fights aging man. Exercise is great for
aging. You don't have to be crazy like me when I'm playing pickle ball
and I'm lifting weights and I'm going to the gym and all that and riding
my bike here. Just taking a walk a couple of times a day.
Split it up like like take a twenty minute walk three times a day.
It's amazing what it does against aging. Amazing. So this particular drug for
depression and anxiety, what's a good option. I don't have a lot of
time left. Alcohol with ALA is great for depression. On its own,
al car is great for depression. Ala is good for depression. Our car
is great for depression. And you pull them together, they're fantastic for depression.
They're study show where alcohol with ALA help depression within the first week or
two. Within the first week or two, they're helping depression. Can you
add it to an ind to depressant? Yeah, I mean they did studies
where they took powerful antidepressants that weren't working. They added alcohol with ALA and
all of a sudden, the antidepressant was working because it just needed a little
bit of a boost to do better. So alcohol with ALA is great for
ALA is great for depression. They're great for memory, they're great for brain
energy, they're great for nerve pain. These are really useful supplements. I
take alcohol with ALA every day just the offset aging of my brain. I
don't have nerve pain, I have plenty of brain energy. I feel great,
I feel fantastic. I feel like a bull okay, and my brain
feels fantastic. But I take it every day just to offset the deterioration of
the brain and nerves that can occur with aging. I don't want that.
So I want to feel like this when I'm ninety, right, Okay.
Now, So alcohol with ALA is great for depression. A biocurriculum in of
five locks and same deal great for depression. Depression is kind of like it's
not like there's a wall in the brain, Like if the brain was a
wall. It's not like there's one brick missing depression to hold terrain and the
wall is off. So the buio Currakman fod locks and gets inflammation and the
brain under control, and that really helps you get rid of depression when you
get the inflammation in the brain, because most depressed brains also have inflammation.
So when you take the Biocrikman fold blocks and it easily gets into the brain.
I take it every day to protect my brain. It's great for arthritis,
it's great for nerve pain. It's great for back pain. It's great
for neck pain. It's great for muscle pain. I take it for my
brain because it seeds the brain. It feeds the brain, It protects the
brain, It nourishes the brain. But it lifts your mood by getting rid
of inflammation. Inflammation increases in the brain with age because the antioxidant levels drop.
That's why I tell so many older people take the alcohol with ala and
the buyocrirekmud fove blockxing. Great for the body, great for your nerves,
great for your brain, great for energy, stops inflammation. It's just a
great way to go. It's a great way to go for older people.
Really, anybody over fifty. Unbelievable what it can do. And buy over
eighty, get on it, get on it. Get on I'm seventy.
I'm on them. So the buiocracrement five locks and gets rid of inflammation on
the brain. Now, let's the brain settle down and recreate itself in dull
its jobs and housekeeping. Getting rid of toxins et cetera, and depression improves.
So if you're on an antidepressant, it's not working totally. It's some
five box in to it. You'll be shocked at how well it helps.
Now you should also be on fish oils. Fish oils have like krill.
I eat fish. Okay, this week I already let's see it's early in
the week, so let's talk about last week. Last week I had tuna.
Last week I had flounder. Last week I had a fish called redfish
that I had never had in my life before. I enjoyed it. So
I had fish three times last week. I still take krill every morning.
That's where I get my fisholes from. Fish oils have been shown to mitigate
a lot of the problems with depression. In fact, they've been showing to
help treat the depression and other problems and help prevent memory loss. They help
prevent sudden cardiac death. I mean, there's no reason not to take fissials.
Okay, but now another study shows that fisioles help prevent stroke. Let
me go over that, because if you're depressed or you're older, fisules decrease
in the brain with age. Plus stanton drugs for cholesterol also decrease fish oils
in a brain. So if you're on a stat and you definitely should be
on fisials, but all older people should be onfiicials. They should either be
eating fish or taking crill oil or taking fishuols. They should be doing something
like that. It's really important. About one in four adults will suffer with
a stroke. Okay, that's big. Stroke is the number two cause of
death worldwide. Stroke is the number two cause of death worldwide having a stroke,
and the incidence of stroke has doubled over the past twenty years. The
number of people who have strokes has increased by fifty percent over the last twenty
years. So they did a pooled harmonized analysis of research. Now, these
are doctors from all over the world. Their researchers from all over the world.
The Carolinska Institute Sweden, researchers in the Netherlands, researchers in Germany,
researchers all over the United States, like for instance, Saint Luke's Mid America
Heart Institute led the research. The University of Missouria, Kansas City, the
University of South Dakota. It's in the journal Stroke. It's in the journal
Stroke, which is a major journal in the American Heart Association. So they
pulled evidence on one hundred over one hundred and eighty three thousand people and this
is over a fourteen year period, and they saw there was almost eleven thousand
strokes. So they looked at the blood levels and tissue levels of fish wells
and people with high levels of fish wells. It really helped prevent a stroke.
It really helped prevent the stroke. It cut way down on the number
of people with strokes. So fishels helped prevent sudden cardiac death that happens to
over three hundred thousand Americans each year. And fishals helped prevent a blocked stroke.
Now, what about a bleeding stroke. What's good for a bleeding stroke?
Green tea? Green Tea's been shown to help prevent a bleeding stroke.
So I drink green tea every day and I add our green tea liquid to
it, so I'm getting plenty of green tea. So's my wife. I
take visuals, so I'm protecting myself from both strokes. So this is very
important information you're getting right now. I wish I could go further. I
wish I had more time I don't. I'm out of time. We have
very clean supplements used in human clinical trials, frequently publishing peer reviewed medical journals.
These are good supplements with a lot of signs behind them that are safe.
We have the nutritionists to help you with your selection of supplements, so
you're not on your own trying to navigate all this information. They had to
help you. They're very knowledgeable, kind people, they're very considered people.
And what's better, or what is additionally good, is we made them cheaper
right now. Not only did Invite lower their prices maybe three or four months
ago, they lowered all their prices right now. There's a forty percent off
sale. It's for the presidents. It's in honor of our wonderful presidents,
