Get ready for tomorrow's nutritional Science 9 00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:30.760 Today right here, right now. 10 00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:42.359 Hello, and welcome to Invite Health Radio. I am doctor 11 00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:48.880 Amanda Williams, Science director at Invite Health, and happy Saturday morning. 12 00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:51.280 Sounds like you guys are off to a chilly start. 13 00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:54.520 I heard that weather at the top of the hour 14 00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:58.039 sent to chill up my spine, So hopefully I can 15 00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:03.320 warm you up with some wellness information on this Saturday morning. 16 00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:06.079 I have a lot of ground to cover today to 17 00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:10.480 talk about many different formulations and speaking of trying to 18 00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:14.079 drive up that warmth, cocohx, I'm going to highlight our 19 00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:20.120 cocohx formulation which is such a powerful blend of antioxidants 20 00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:24.120 and what's so lovely about taking coco hx at this 21 00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:27.120 time of year is that you can warm it up 22 00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:30.599 and you can sip on a nice, healthy drink much 23 00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:35.079 better than your hot chocolate alternatives out there, because we 24 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:38.439 always want to zero in on what we can utilize 25 00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:44.319 truly from nature and avoid just inundating our bodies with 26 00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:48.959 all of those chemicals, and there's so many things. I 27 00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:51.799 just read this week that the FDA was still in 28 00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.000 their determination phase. If they were going to ban certain 29 00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:58.519 food colorings, it should have already been done. And we 30 00:01:58.599 --> 00:02:02.640 have to be honest about that. It's just it's so 31 00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:07.840 damaging to the human body. And you know, I read 32 00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:13.400 all these different research studies each week and it's it's 33 00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:14.159 just alarming. 34 00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:15.159 You know. 35 00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:18.280 University of South Florida, they just came out with a 36 00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:24.080 study looking at the correlation between ultra processed foods and 37 00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:29.960 the increase incidence of colorectal cancer. And for those who 38 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:34.800 kind of follow cancer epidemiology such as I do, I 39 00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:40.120 can clearly see, you know, in colorectal cancer has always existed. However, 40 00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:42.759 there is a you know, a sharp increase that we 41 00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.360 are now seeing in individuals who are in their forties 42 00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:49.319 and fifties who are being diagnosed with more advanced stage 43 00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:52.039 coorectal cancers, and so you have to look and say, 44 00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:55.360 you know, what's driving all of this. So the University 45 00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:57.919 of South Florida they looked at this. They were looking 46 00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:02.680 at how ultra processed foods and the amount of inflammation 47 00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:06.479 that those foods can drive up in your system. Are 48 00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.120 you know, correlated to that change in the way that 49 00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:13.560 your cells are dividing to a real negative way. So 50 00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:17.879 this was published in the Gut Journal, So for those 51 00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:20.560 who are fans of Gut Journal, you can read up 52 00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:24.439 on this particular study. But it's it just kind of 53 00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:28.840 reinforces that you know, on this show, I talk frequently 54 00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:32.680 about adherence to a Mediterranean diet. Why that's so important. 55 00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:36.400 And while the name may sound, you know, kind of 56 00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:40.039 very elaborate, Oh the Mediterranean diet. You think, oh, I 57 00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:41.879 have to you know, book a flight and go to Greece. No, 58 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:44.680 you don't have to do that. It's just truly about 59 00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:49.759 eating healthy. It's about getting in those fruits and those vegetables. 60 00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:53.199 And we already know, you know, we've seen the studies. 61 00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:57.039 University of North Carolina said only twelve percent of Americans 62 00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:01.719 are considered to be metabolically healthy, which is an incredibly 63 00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:07.159 alarming number. So if we only have twelve percent of 64 00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:11.599 the population that's quote unquote healthy. And then we look 65 00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:15.560 at the statistics for fruit and vegetable intake and we 66 00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:19.600 realize seventy five percent of Americans on a daily basis 67 00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:22.600 do not get the required one to two cups of 68 00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:25.759 fruits per day, and they do not get the required 69 00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:29.160 two to three cups of vegetables per day. And that's 70 00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:34.040 even more alarming. Numbers like ninety percent of Americans are 71 00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:40.600 not getting adequate vegetable intake, and that's a big problem. 72 00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:43.560 I'm gonna be talking about our alkalizer powder today because 73 00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:47.079 that's back in stock. Many times you'll hear myself or 74 00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:50.759 Jerry talk about the alkalizer powder, especially in the summer months, 75 00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:55.360 for really helping with dehydration. If you're out working in 76 00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:57.360 the yard and you get muscle cramps. This is an 77 00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:00.319 excellent formulation to turn to. But we can't turn a 78 00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:04.759 blind eye to the fact that dehydration can occur throughout 79 00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:08.439 the year. And the alkalizer powder really does create this 80 00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:14.120 lovely pH alkalinity in our system. But think about what's 81 00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:18.439 in that formulation. It has magnesium and potassium, well, our 82 00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:23.319 greatest sources of magnesium and potassium are coming from those 83 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:27.160 fruits and vegetables and those seeds in those nuts. And unfortunately, 84 00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:33.519 because many Americans have that tendency to consume higher amounts 85 00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.160 of those ultra process foods because they're quick, they're easy, 86 00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:38.800 they market them really well. You may be, you know, 87 00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:40.920 on the go and you think, oh, it's just easier 88 00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:43.879 just to eat this way, But it's also easy to 89 00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.720 eat a piece of a fruit or to take you know, 90 00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:50.600 some nuts with you at the start of your day. 91 00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:54.879 So adherence to a Mediterranean diet is definitely achievable. And 92 00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:57.279 if you're a little confused as to how you can 93 00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:01.480 achieve this, reach out to us, because while you're hearing 94 00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:06.120 me this morning, and you'll hear Jerry next week, we 95 00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:10.639 have an entire team of nutritional experts who are there 96 00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:14.079 to help guide you not only through the proper selection 97 00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:18.240 of our wonderful line of products, but also to give 98 00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:22.519 you that lifestyle modification support.

And we've been doing this for close 125 00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:50.079 to thirty years now, and that is the one thing 126 00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:54.120 that we recognize that people really do want to discuss 127 00:07:54.639 --> 00:08:00.279 their their health concerns or any health related issue that 128 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:04.839 comes up.

So we try 133 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:19.920 to make it as simple as possible for you. But 134 00:08:20.120 --> 00:08:24.040 you know, to look at this study on the link 135 00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:30.879 between these horrible foods and colorectal cancer should make us 136 00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:33.919 all pause, and you know, think about this. I always 137 00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.159 say you have to be mindful, be mindful when you're eating. 138 00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:40.399 And I remember the first time I was introduced to this. 139 00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:41.320 It was many years ago. 140 00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:41.639 I was. 141 00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:47.559 Assistant professor at a medical school and I did this 142 00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:53.679 course on mindful medicine, and I thought I was doing 143 00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:58.159 this technically for helping my students, but I realized that 144 00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:02.840 I learned so much about my health and now I 145 00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:07.440 do practice mindful medicine every single day when it comes 146 00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:10.399 to mindful eating. These are the things that to me, 147 00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:15.759 really make a huge difference. It allows you to kind 148 00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:17.799 of think about what am I putting into my body 149 00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:20.799 right now? Is this natural? Does this have you know, 150 00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:25.519 chemicals in it? Am I being exposed to microplastics? Are 151 00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:29.919 there artificial colors or preservatives or flavors in this? And 152 00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:32.960 it really can allow you to have better insight on 153 00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:36.480 being proactive to your own health. And that's so important 154 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:41.120 because that's what I speak about so often. Sometimes people 155 00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:45.720 look at health as being more in the setting of illness, 156 00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.360 but health technically it's your wellness and we're all through 157 00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.240 this journey of life trying to achieve, you know, the 158 00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:58.320 healthiest way to age. I always say, aging graceful is 159 00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:04.200 what our goal is. So through the inclusion of different 160 00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:11.240 dietary supplements and adhering to healthier lifestyles, this can be done. 161 00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:13.799 So I always use myself as an example. I used 162 00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:17.440 to laugh and say my car was on autopilot, you know, 163 00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:21.639 when I was back in college to any bad fast 164 00:10:21.679 --> 00:10:25.120 food place, and now I know I could not tolerate that. 165 00:10:25.639 --> 00:10:31.720 So when you eat energy dense foods, your body will 166 00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:34.919 appreciate that. But we also know that even if we 167 00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:38.759 are adhering to a Mediterranean diet and we have these 168 00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:44.720 healthy foods, we're still likely lacking key nutrients. So this 169 00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:48.399 is why speaking with one of our nutritional experts is 170 00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.879 so essential for you because they can help you select 171 00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:55.600 the right multivitamin. And as you know, we have a 172 00:10:55.720 --> 00:11:01.759 very extensive line of multivitamins. The appropriate omega three fatty 173 00:11:01.799 --> 00:11:05.080 acid we all need extra omega threes. Don't fool yourself 174 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:08.720 on that. Omega threes are key to regulating so many 175 00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:11.559 functions in our bodies. So when we're thinking of fish 176 00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:15.559 oil or our wonderful krill oil advanced as an example, 177 00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:18.799 we have to make sure that we're getting enough exposure 178 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.879 to those omega threes to offset any level of inflammation. 179 00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:26.679 Because we know inflammation is the driving force for any 180 00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:32.200 chronic disease, including cancers, So how do we target that 181 00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:35.879 well through the nutrients that we are taking in. And 182 00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:39.960 this is why dietary supplementation becomes so important for us, 183 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:45.039 because inflammation in that chronic low grade state isn't always 184 00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:48.919 you don't see it and you may not even feel it, 185 00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:51.240 because it's not like you stubbed your toe and you 186 00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:52.919 can look down and say, oh, yes, you know, red 187 00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:57.399 and swollen, that's acute inflammation. But chronic inflammation, that's what's 188 00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:00.080 so incredibly detrimental. So we just have to do a 189 00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.799 better job. And we know that when it comes to 190 00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:07.120 taking in the right nutrients. You know, study just came 191 00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:11.320 out from Harvard this week looking at the consumption of 192 00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:16.879 dark chocolate being incredibly helpful for lowering the risk of 193 00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:20.120 type two diabetes. So when I talk about our coco 194 00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:22.240 h X today, this is one of the areas that 195 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:24.279 I'm going to zero win for you talk about why 196 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:27.639 is it that those cocoa flavanols, how are they working 197 00:12:27.720 --> 00:12:31.240 to communicate with ourselves to not only power them up 198 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:34.039 and to fight off free radicals, but how are they 199 00:12:34.039 --> 00:12:38.159 working to regulate our insulm response. Because it really is 200 00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:42.879 fascinating science when you start to see the way that 201 00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:46.360 things from nature such as cocoa, and we're not talking 202 00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:50.200 milk chocolate here, folks, we're talking cocoa, how powerful that 203 00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:55.399 can actually be.

I am doctor Amanda Williams, and 241 00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:25.279 I have Anthony from Brooklyn on the line. How are 242 00:15:25.360 --> 00:15:28.200 you doing on this Saturday morning? Anthony? 243 00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:32.720 I'm doing great. Last year this time I wasn't doing 244 00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:37.759 so well. I had open heart surgery. Good and I 245 00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:40.440 just want to know, is there like a place I 246 00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:43.679 can go to where I can literally have someone sit 247 00:15:43.799 --> 00:15:47.440 down and talk to me about my supplements and what 248 00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:52.360 I should be taking. And you know, I'm sixty four 249 00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:55.159 now and I just would like to take better help. 250 00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:58.000 Well, I have got a care of my health, and 251 00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:00.600 I think that that's great that you're being pro I'm 252 00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:03.240 you know, very happy that you are one year out 253 00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:07.600 from your obviously very traumatic but your open heart surgery. 254 00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:11.000 And yes, the answer to your question is yes, you 255 00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:13.559 can go into any of our store locations. You said 256 00:16:13.600 --> 00:16:16.039 you were in Brooklyn, so we have a store over 257 00:16:16.120 --> 00:16:18.519 on Ralph Avenue. You can go over there, you can 258 00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:22.039 have a chat. You can certainly reach out to me. 259 00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.519 I can give you my emails A Williams at invitehealth 260 00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:29.759 dot com, and I can you know, work with you 261 00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.639 on establishing a way that you can have a you know, 262 00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:36.240 if it's easier to do a video consultation for you, 263 00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:40.080 we can certainly set that up. But when it comes 264 00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:43.240 to heart health, there's many different moving parts to this. 265 00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:47.759 In traditional medicine, doctors oftentimes want to just look at 266 00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:50.399 the heart as just an isolated organ. But we know 267 00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:53.360 that the heart is kind of the it's the beat 268 00:16:53.559 --> 00:16:57.519 for everything in the body, and we have to recognize that, 269 00:16:57.840 --> 00:16:59.960 and we have to realize that there are different nutrients 270 00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:04.160 that can be very very helpful for not just circulatory 271 00:17:04.200 --> 00:17:07.759 function thinking of heart health, but for the way everything 272 00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.119 is working in the body. So when working with us, 273 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:12.920 what you would do is you'd come in and we'd 274 00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:14.759 sit down and we kind of talk about, you know, 275 00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:18.880 what are you doing right now? What medications are you on? 276 00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:23.319 Because I'm guessing that you are likely on a couple, 277 00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:28.119 if not more than that of cardiac medications and some 278 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.480 of the concerns that go along with that. Number one, 279 00:17:30.559 --> 00:17:35.519 you likely need those medications, but many of those medications 280 00:17:35.519 --> 00:17:38.799 can create nutrient depletions. We want to be able to 281 00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:43.839 avoid that, so we have to understand which meds you're on. 282 00:17:44.039 --> 00:17:46.880 Are you on a beta blocker, are you on an 283 00:17:46.920 --> 00:17:50.640 ACE inhibitor drug, are you on something that's a diuretic, 284 00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:54.920 for example, Because the more we understand that for you, Anthony, 285 00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:59.359 what we can then do is design a supplementation routine 286 00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:02.599 to make sure that we're covering any of those areas 287 00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:07.279 that potentially those medications are lowering your magnesium or your 288 00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:09.680 coenzyme Q ten level, because then it's going to make 289 00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:13.480 it harder for your heart to work. So you may 290 00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:17.480 be taking a drug that's intended to help your heart health, 291 00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:21.880 but at the same time it's lowering key nutrients that 292 00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:25.480 your heart actually requires so your doctors usually don't talk 293 00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:27.240 to you about this, and this is the things that 294 00:18:27.279 --> 00:18:32.160 we do alongside of you to really get you across 295 00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:36.359 that threshold of overall wellness, not just for your heart 296 00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:40.640 but for everything. But there are nutrients that you should 297 00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:45.160 definitely be including in, including coenzyme Q ten in that 298 00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:50.240 ubiquinyl form. Vitamin D many times overlooked when it comes 299 00:18:50.279 --> 00:18:53.920 to heart health. So you know, having your serum vitamin 300 00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:59.359 D level tested would be incredibly advantagious. And because if 301 00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:02.799 you have low levels of vitamin D that can affect 302 00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:07.920 your cardiac function. So my advice to you would be 303 00:19:08.440 --> 00:19:10.119 to you know, if you can't make it into the 304 00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:13.559 Ralph Avenue location, like I said, reach out to me 305 00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:17.400 and I will be happy to get you set up 306 00:19:17.559 --> 00:19:20.480 with a video consultation and we can get you on 307 00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:23.880 the right path when it comes to heart health and 308 00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:25.640 beyond anthony. 309 00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:31.279 I appreciate that your Ralph Avenue address, what is go? 310 00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:37.039 Let me grab that for you. Give me just one moment, 311 00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:44.279 I'll give you our Ralph Avenue location. Okay, So the 312 00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:52.240 Ralph Avenue is nineteen forty two Ralph Ave and they 313 00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:54.759 are open today from ten until seven. 314 00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:00.319 Okay, I think I will go in there today, not 315 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:05.880 definitely tomorrow, but I am interested in just improving my 316 00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:09.440 health overall, because I don't feel my age, and you know, 317 00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:12.759 my body wants to get up and go running. But 318 00:20:12.839 --> 00:20:17.599 it's like, well is it okay safe to go back 319 00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:21.240 to exercising. And you know, speaking from someone who's always 320 00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:24.000 taking care of themselves, I don't smoke, I don't drink. 321 00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:26.000 I never did a drug a day in my life. 322 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:30.480 It wasn't prescribed to me. And other than that, you know, 323 00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:32.720 I just want to see if I can get at 324 00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:35.240 least another thirty out of this life. 325 00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:39.440 Well, I think that's great. Hey, we want to get 326 00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:42.559 you back out and out and about running, doing whatever 327 00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:44.160 it is that you want to do. There are so 328 00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:47.599 many nutrients, like I said, that can really help to 329 00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:50.079 enhance the way that you feel every day, get that 330 00:20:50.279 --> 00:20:53.839 energy level back. Going through open heart surgery is incredibly 331 00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:57.839 traumatic and can really deplete your energy, and so to 332 00:20:57.880 --> 00:21:02.039 try and come back from that can be difficult, but 333 00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:04.680 it's definitely achievable. Let me put it to you this way. 334 00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:07.400 Once we get you on the right routine and you're 335 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:11.640 taking nutrients like your ubiquinyl COQ ten that we're making 336 00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:15.240 sure that we're covering any of those potential nutrient deficiencies 337 00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:17.720 that are brought on by the medications that you're taking. 338 00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:20.759 We can turn to formulations like our ribos complex and 339 00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:23.839 that really helps to power up not just your your 340 00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:29.200 heart muscle function, but for all of your muscles.

You enjoy the rest 348 00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:56.880 of your day. And you know, I have such an 349 00:21:56.920 --> 00:22:01.599 appreciation when people do call in with their concerns because 350 00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:05.960 while in Anthony's situation and clearly having open heart surgery, 351 00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:11.400 that's a major event, but many times people just need 352 00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:15.799 kind of a little extra guidance because for all of 353 00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:18.160 us who have been in the traditional medical world, we 354 00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:20.880 know that sometimes it's a little cold and isolated, and 355 00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:22.720 maybe you go in and you see your doctor and 356 00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:24.240 they give you your labs and you go, I have 357 00:22:24.279 --> 00:22:26.359 no idea what any of this means. You can come 358 00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:29.319 to Invite Health and we can help kind of break 359 00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:33.759 it down so you understand what you know this level means, 360 00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:36.160 and if it's low, how do I bring it up? 361 00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:38.000 Or if I have something that's high, how do I 362 00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:41.519 bring that down? I oftentimes say, if we look at 363 00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:43.640 the body in a very simple way, and all of 364 00:22:43.720 --> 00:22:47.720 the cells, we're usually either toxic in something or we're 365 00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:51.920 deficient in something. So just always keep that in mind. 366 00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:57.039 But we're definitely your go to to resource for that. Now, 367 00:22:57.160 --> 00:23:01.559 when it comes to ubiquinol, as you all know, if 368 00:23:01.599 --> 00:23:04.720 you listen to to this program for so many years, 369 00:23:05.240 --> 00:23:10.359 you know that Invite Health has a very unique form 370 00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:12.759 of coenzyme q ten. I know I said I was 371 00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:14.559 going to go to cocoa, but since we were just 372 00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:17.880 talking to Anthony with heart health, I figure I will 373 00:23:18.119 --> 00:23:23.200 will pivot just a bit and talk about our coenzyme 374 00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:26.759 Q ten because co q ten is naturally occurring in 375 00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:30.640 the body, but as we get older, those levels start 376 00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:33.160 to go down, and that's a problem not just for 377 00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:36.839 heart health, but for all of the cells in the body. 378 00:23:36.920 --> 00:23:43.559 Because our body requires coenzyme q ten as its natural 379 00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:46.279 fuel source. It's kind of like if your car runs 380 00:23:46.279 --> 00:23:49.200 out of gas. I mean it may be an absolutely 381 00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:51.720 beautiful car, but if it has no fuel in it, 382 00:23:51.799 --> 00:23:54.759 you're not going anywhere. Your body is the same way, 383 00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:58.359 So if your coenzyme q ten levels start to go down, 384 00:23:59.119 --> 00:24:02.200 that is going to kind of start to putter out 385 00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:07.720 all of yourselves. So supplementation with co enzyme q ten 386 00:24:08.240 --> 00:24:10.559 is really very important. I always say, once you hit 387 00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:13.960 about thirty years old, we should already be thinking, oh goodness, 388 00:24:14.039 --> 00:24:17.200 I've been on this earth for thirty years. I need 389 00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:19.880 to replenish some co q ten. But how do we 390 00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:23.880 do that in the most effective way? Well, not all 391 00:24:23.920 --> 00:24:27.759 coenzyme q ten's is created the same. So say you 392 00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:30.920 go into just a you know, Duane read and they 393 00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:34.000 have coq ten. Is that the same as the coq 394 00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:37.799 ten that Invite health offers. No, it is not, because 395 00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:44.279 what we use is a very powerful bioidentical form of 396 00:24:44.319 --> 00:24:48.359 coenzyme q ten known as ubiquinol, and the form that 397 00:24:48.640 --> 00:24:53.319 we use actually a registered trademark form called knica, And 398 00:24:53.559 --> 00:24:58.799 the science behind this is incredibly impressive. So I can 399 00:24:58.960 --> 00:25:01.440 talk for our hours an hour s folks when it 400 00:25:01.480 --> 00:25:05.519 comes to our ubiquinyl formulation and we have it partnered 401 00:25:05.559 --> 00:25:07.920
