WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.279 Hey everybody, and welcome to you Everything's Political. I'm your host, 2 00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:06.679 Taya Shoemake. You can also find us online at Everything's 3 00:00:06.759 --> 00:00:12.039 Political dot substack dot com. Shout out to Magicman Joe Strecker, 4 00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:18.039 the Thomas Paine of podcast producers, born on this day 5 00:00:18.199 --> 00:00:22.239 in seventeen thirty seven. He was actually born in England 6 00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:27.519 and came to America in seventeen seventy four. Benjamin Franklin 7 00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:31.760 helped him immigrate. When he got here, he obviously became 8 00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:36.280 involved in the independence movement, writing his pamphlet Common Sense 9 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:40.200 in seventeen seventy six, which became widely popular and helped 10 00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:43.640 build support for the revolution. During the war, he also 11 00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:47.520 served as an aide to General Nathaniel Greene, during which 12 00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:51.079 time he also wrote The American Crisis. And that was 13 00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:55.920 a series of pamphlets supporting the cause of independence. And 14 00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:59.119 these include the famous quote and I love it's like 15 00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:02.119 Charles Dickens. Everybody knows Tale of Two Cities. It was 16 00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:04.000 the best of times, it was the worst of times, 17 00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:09.680 and the American Crisis began with these are the times 18 00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:14.640 that try men's souls. And I'm going to continue the 19 00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:18.159 summer Soldier and the sunshine. Patriot will in this crisis 20 00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:21.799 shrink from the service of their country. But he that 21 00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:25.560 stands by it now deserves the love and thanks of 22 00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:30.840 men and woman women. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered. 23 00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:35.159 Yet we have this consolation with us that the harder 24 00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:40.079 the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain 25 00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:45.239 too cheaply, we esteem too lightly. It's talking about cheap 26 00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:49.640 grace here. It is dearness only that gives everything its value. 27 00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:54.560 And it would be strange, indeed, if so celestial an 28 00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:59.799 article as freedom should not be highly rated. Folks, those 29 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:04.120 words are as true today as they were when he 30 00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:12.120 wrote them. And it will only be with our consistent engagement, 31 00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:21.280 our fierce independence, and I'll add with boldness that will 32 00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:26.240 ensure that the path forward leads to liberty over tyranny. 33 00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:52.520 So let's go say, Okay, if you're a regular listener, 34 00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:57.840 you know that one of those paths about which I'm 35 00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:04.080 talking is unbridled liberty in the realm of health care 36 00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:10.800 and wellness. For way too long, we've had a bureaucracy 37 00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:15.960 and a corruptocracy, if you want to call it, that, 38 00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:24.800 that has hidden cures, that has softened effects, adverse effects, 39 00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:32.319 and basically has manipulated and created a system that lines 40 00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:40.639 pockets over helping Americans stay healthy. And part of that 41 00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:49.039 path is getting away from pill pushers. Our doctors are 42 00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:52.280 trained to be pill pushers. It's like now our teachers, 43 00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:57.560 we've turned them into administrators and indoctrinators. We've turned doctors 44 00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:00.919 into administrators and pill pushers. So where are we to 45 00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:08.719 go for education and wellness? I can tell you immediately 46 00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:15.639 it's home. We have to look within ourselves and that's 47 00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.040 going to be very challenging because there is a generation 48 00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:20.920 and I'm going to say it's Gen X, because we're 49 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:27.839 next up. We're the next geriatric generation. We're going to 50 00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:32.279 be the guinea pigs. That is this space between pill 51 00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:38.720 pushing and genuine wellness. And we're going to have to 52 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:45.399 be bold and brave with the understanding that there are 53 00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:52.600 worse things than dying, with the understanding that how we 54 00:04:52.680 --> 00:05:01.240 proceed will affect posterity. So toward the that end, right 55 00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:04.680 of getting away from the pill pushers. And look, I'm 56 00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:10.079 not against all medication. You guys know that on day 57 00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:13.160 two of ivermectin, I felt like running the Flying Pig 58 00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:20.639 Marathon twice, so I get it. Sometimes you might need 59 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:29.120 a man made medication, but we have suffocated the idea 60 00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:36.439 that our immune system is brilliantly designed and if we 61 00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:39.439 just give our bodies, and we're all different, if we 62 00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:45.399 just give our bodies the right fuel and the right conditions, 63 00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:51.240 then it might help us prevent illness and chronic disease. 64 00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:57.959 That's what we're about. So again, toward that end, we 65 00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:03.160 have a listener favorite back with us today. He is 66 00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:07.399 a leading expert in integrative nutritional health and she's here 67 00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:12.040 to speak with us today about America's wellness and she 68 00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.040 is listener favorite, doctor Lynn Lafferty. Doctor Lafferty, thanks you 69 00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:16.959 so much for being on. 70 00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:19.920 Thank you. I really enjoyed being on your show, so 71 00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:20.800 thanks so much. 72 00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:24.680 I can't wait to dive into some of the improvements 73 00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:27.439 that God willing will be able to make in this 74 00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:33.040 nation's healthcare, perhaps even move it toward wellness, doctor Lafferty. 75 00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.519 Before we dive in, I have to ask you your 76 00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:41.759 opinion on Bobby Kennedy's confirmation and what are you hoping 77 00:06:41.800 --> 00:06:43.519 that he accomplishes well. 78 00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.360 One of the things he's talked he put in his 79 00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:51.319 plan that I saw is to give fifty percent of 80 00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.920 the research money to integrative natural type of medicine. 81 00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:58.000 And I think that's amazing. 82 00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:02.720 I actually write a sub stack under the stage professor 83 00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:07.439 and I talk about three things about NIH that gets 84 00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:11.079 fifty billion a year in research. I talk about one 85 00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:14.199 of our scientists at this the university here that I'm 86 00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:19.639 working gets probably in government grants, maybe twenty from NIH 87 00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:24.199 and maybe forty or million a year. She hasn't moved 88 00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:28.199 her patient care in the two diseases. She looks at 89 00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:33.079 a millimeter. While this other professor who should win a 90 00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:37.879 Nobel prize, he's an older professor and he has been 91 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:41.639 a pioneer and just came out with another with a 92 00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:46.199 group of scientists of why the aluminum in the vaccines 93 00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:52.120 are causing the autism condition. But that MTCHFR it's called 94 00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:55.399 you have a what we call a snip, And what 95 00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:58.600 a snip means is that your genetics doesn't work like 96 00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:03.240 everyone else's. It may be slower, and there's variations from 97 00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:07.879 being really detrimental to maybe a little detrimental. But there's 98 00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:12.360 a pathway that you have to have tetrahydromethyl folate and 99 00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:15.040 methyl b twelve. A type of moth will be twelve 100 00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:17.759 different The one in the brain is different than the 101 00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:19.519 one in the heart, so it just methy will be 102 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:25.439 twelve different types of chemical vitamins there inside. Without those, 103 00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:27.839 you get hyper inflammation. 104 00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:29.639 So we already know. 105 00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:34.480 You look on the website of CDC itself and it 106 00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:38.879 tells you that it's adding aluminum to the vaccines, most 107 00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.600 of the vaccines, and they're telling you the reason we're 108 00:08:42.639 --> 00:08:45.960 doing it is to hyper activate, so it goes into 109 00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:50.440 hyper inflammation. And because they don't have the break, so 110 00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:53.679 that's always been the question, Well, my kid got these 111 00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:56.799 vaccines and doesn't have it, so it can't be from 112 00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:00.440 the vaccines. But they've tested that most of the children 113 00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:04.759 have this problem, this genetic problem. But everybody, there's twenty 114 00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:08.080 five percent of a marecut that has it. And they 115 00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:12.960 talk about now taking B twelve and folic acid, the 116 00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:16.919 regular chemical type that we take that most people take 117 00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:20.159 from the drug store shelf, actually may cause cancer. And 118 00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:23.919 it says twenty two or twenty three percent of the population. Well, 119 00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:26.960 that's the twenty two or twenty three percent that can't 120 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:31.159 methylate that stuff and convert it. That's why I've always 121 00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:35.639 been a pro motor and proponent of animal tissue vitamins 122 00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.399 because the animals. 123 00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:40.120 Are going to make the correct type of. 124 00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:42.720 B twelve, And like I said, the one in the 125 00:09:42.759 --> 00:09:45.159 adrenal plant is going to be different than the heart. 126 00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:47.120 And so when you get all. 127 00:09:47.039 --> 00:09:50.240 Those different tissues, you're going to get the different types 128 00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:54.919 of vitamins and the converted into their converted form for 129 00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:56.639 that tissue. 130 00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:00.759 So you'd be a proponent then of getting everything from 131 00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:03.840 your diet as much as you possibly can, because isn't 132 00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:08.120 full of acid that we take. Isn't that synthetic? I know, 133 00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:11.039 I know we make folate right. 134 00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:15.840 Right, but like a hydromethyl folate, that is the chemical 135 00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:20.399 that must go in to this pathway. Or you have 136 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:24.840 very high homocysteine, and that especially affects the heart and 137 00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:30.919 the brain and causes super inflammation according to this doctor's paper, So. 138 00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:36.039 Everyone in America, the money. 139 00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:40.159 He gets the NIH should be sharing this with every physician, 140 00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:44.840 promoting what it means and promoting them to do a 141 00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:49.159 study on it. The same thing with COVID. Right when 142 00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:52.120 I first heard the word COVID, I went to the 143 00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:57.200 medical library. I pulled probably twenty studies that showed whether 144 00:10:57.240 --> 00:11:01.759 you had a viral infection, a bacterial infection, or a 145 00:11:01.799 --> 00:11:05.200 funnel infection, and you died you were low in vitamin D. 146 00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:08.159 So these are the types of things that we need 147 00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:13.039 to be talking to doctors about right now. 148 00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:15.320 And this is a really huge problem. 149 00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:22.080 The AMA and their board that approves the CME, the 150 00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:26.960 Medical Medical Education for doctors does not allow us to 151 00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:33.360 even get credit for anything that's integrative or complementary or 152 00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:37.600 anything like that. So so many things have to be changed, 153 00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.840 and he's the person to do it. His courage to 154 00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:44.759 go outside the box and look at what he's taking 155 00:11:44.799 --> 00:11:47.399 from his own family for God's sakes, and I want 156 00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:50.399 someone And you know what the way he talks about that, well, 157 00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:55.240 we've always been a family who has discussions and gets 158 00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:58.240 in fights, and we used to have that too at 159 00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:02.639 dinner table, you know, about politics. So he takes it 160 00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:06.559 on the chin with a smile and moves forward. And 161 00:12:06.600 --> 00:12:09.360 that's the kind of courageous leaders that we need. So 162 00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:12.840 I'm I'm really excited that he's been chosen. 163 00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:17.639 I am too. He certainly walks his talk, Yeah, he has. 164 00:12:17.840 --> 00:12:19.879 You know, when I grew up, the Hudson was on 165 00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:23.639 fire and you know, and now it's one of the 166 00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:28.480 most diverse ecological systems that we have. Briefly on that 167 00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:33.679 MTHFR is that also related? Do I recall reading that 168 00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:35.799 associated with miscarriages? 169 00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:40.200 Possibly it could be. I've never read that, so I 170 00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:43.879 take your word. Probably it is. It can be related 171 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:45.440 to many things. You know. 172 00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:48.200 There's two things I tell my students. 173 00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:51.360 You know, I'm a professor at medical and pharmacy school. 174 00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:55.399 I teach a lot of residents, medical residents, because if 175 00:12:55.440 --> 00:13:00.519 you don't remember anything else, everybody over forty, it's about inflammation, 176 00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:04.120 and that's the first step in your immune system. So 177 00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:07.279 no matter what's happening in the body, you can call 178 00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:10.799 it all these other conditions. And that's why I don't 179 00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:14.159 even really believe in diagnosis. It's more to tell you 180 00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:16.759 what the symptoms are. We have to look at the symptom. 181 00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:20.639 But and then right now, which it never was like 182 00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.799 this before, it's about how sugar's handled in the body, 183 00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:29.639 the diabetes and the dysfunction there, because that causes a 184 00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:34.759 lot of inflammation, especially in your endothelial tissue, which is 185 00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:39.799 what lines your blood vessels. And most heart attacks actually 186 00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:43.120 have nothing to do with your heart. Most of it 187 00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.039 has to do with your adrenal blands. We know when 188 00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:50.440 you're under most your type A and stressed out, you're 189 00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.240 more likely to have heart disease, and the adrenal blands 190 00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:57.480 if you are stressed out, will raise your blood sugar, 191 00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:02.200 you know. So there's all of those types of considerations. 192 00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:06.320 So this is what I'm excited about, is to be able. 193 00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:09.000 I have a list full of things that I'd like 194 00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:09.919 to see test. 195 00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:13.399 It is all so on top of all of the 196 00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:18.240 environmental stressors and maybe our personality types, we can also 197 00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:21.919 talk about the inflammation caused by all the synthetics that 198 00:14:21.960 --> 00:14:24.519 we get in our diet, right, whether it's and I 199 00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:28.200 would I would add vitamins into that, right because as 200 00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:31.759 you said, there are different types of vitamin B. There's 201 00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:36.120 the methyl cobolamine, and then there's the cyanide something I 202 00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:38.639 forget what it's called, but all I see a cyanide 203 00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:39.080 and iron. 204 00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:44.000 That's mostly what you would get in your regular pharmacy 205 00:14:44.120 --> 00:14:47.360 if you bought it off the shop and they have 206 00:14:47.559 --> 00:14:49.799 a lot of dyes, you know. I use a whole 207 00:14:49.840 --> 00:14:53.519 food iron product that's very light because it's. 208 00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:56.360 All from food from liver and greens. 209 00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:59.559 And stuff, And at first I have the students feel 210 00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:02.679 the different and then look at the side of what's 211 00:15:02.759 --> 00:15:05.840 in it, and all these dyets are in it that 212 00:15:05.960 --> 00:15:12.559 causes ADHD, cancers, whatever, And so they also add as 213 00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:16.639 an extra bonus to the synthetic vitamins all these other 214 00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:20.720 things for basically no reason. And I tell the students 215 00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:23.320 this is heavy, the one that you get off. 216 00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:24.799 The drug store shelf. 217 00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:27.559 And doctors will tell you a lot of times when 218 00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:31.759 they prescribe iron it doesn't work, I said, because basically 219 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:35.399 you have an entear coated frying pant that you're trying 220 00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:40.759 to digest versus having the whole food. And I had 221 00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:43.840 a patient and she was my friend as well, and 222 00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:47.759 she had uterine cancer, so she was bleeding all the time, 223 00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:50.399 and she went to her oncologist. I had her take 224 00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:53.799 this food iron three times a day and he goes, 225 00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:56.519 I've never seen this before. You don't have anemia. How 226 00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.559 can that be when you're bleeding so much? These iron 227 00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:05.519 actually even works better because it's actually digested. And the 228 00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:08.799 other thing is you really need vitamin C or some 229 00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:13.279 type of acid to keylate that iron and bring it 230 00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:16.200 into the blood. So they have foods high in vitamin 231 00:16:16.320 --> 00:16:19.240 C as well in that product. 232 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:22.799 And I'm glad you mentioned vitamin C because I have 233 00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:26.799 heard the ascorbic acid that is past is vitamin C 234 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:30.519 described as the envelope without a letter in it? 235 00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:31.679 Correct? 236 00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:33.480 Would that be accurate? 237 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:37.559 And always kind of comes from coal tar So because 238 00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:40.360 if you look in nature the things the man that 239 00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:44.919 actually won the Nobel Prize, he was a Hungarian scientist 240 00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:51.720 for extracting the ascorbic acid out of paprika pepper, So 241 00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:55.240 peppers are very high, and we always hear vitamin and 242 00:16:55.320 --> 00:16:58.440 C is high and of course citrus, but actually I 243 00:16:58.480 --> 00:17:03.559 believe it's higher in pepper. And anyhow he extracted, he 244 00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:07.839 said it wouldn't help scurvy because it needs its bioflavonoids 245 00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.160 to be absorbed. And those are things that you heard 246 00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:16.960 about the bioflavonoids during COVID like quercetin and rootin and 247 00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:21.480 other things like that. So again I use whole food 248 00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:25.160 Vitamin Sea which has peppers and acarolla cherries, but it 249 00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:29.880 also has a drenal tissue and liver, because adrenal tissue 250 00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:33.559 uses the most amount of vitamin C in the body. 251 00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:37.319 So when we're under fight or flight, all of our 252 00:17:37.960 --> 00:17:40.799 vitamin C gets used up and the body has its 253 00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:45.880 own consciousness, so it can only live one week. Probably 254 00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:48.319 they never did a study on it, but they did 255 00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:51.039 it on rabbits when they took the adrenal glands out, 256 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:55.000 they only could live one week. So without your adrenal function, 257 00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:58.480 So you know you have a hierarchy, right, you gotta breathe. 258 00:17:58.759 --> 00:17:59.839 You got your heartbeat. 259 00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:03.880 So the body is programmed that way to save itself. 260 00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:10.559 And so what it'll do, because cortisol also destabilizes your 261 00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.720 brain over time when it's high and it's it's supposed 262 00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:17.039 to be high for why you're fighting the bear, but 263 00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:19.880 then it's supposed to go down and crash and you sleep. 264 00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:25.279 So what vitamin C does it helps break down the cortisol. 265 00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:28.319 When I did a lot of the service people that 266 00:18:28.440 --> 00:18:33.599 came back after the golf War, and so they lost 267 00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:36.359 a lot of things like this. One young man had 268 00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:39.279 been hit like four times and his mother told me 269 00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:41.680 he broke his wrist and the doctor said, well, we'll 270 00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:45.880 just fix the ligaments too, but they're gone. The ligaments 271 00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:49.000 are gone because he's under fight or flight. So the 272 00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:52.079 body has to find the vitamin C and that's in 273 00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:56.640 collagen and elastin. Collagen is your biggest protein. And of 274 00:18:56.640 --> 00:18:59.599 course it takes it from your eyes and all of 275 00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:04.240 that those things first, because you can live without that. 276 00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:06.799 It's not going to take it from your ligaments first. 277 00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:09.079 But since it was a good supply, it must have 278 00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:13.240 showed that up more or something like that. So it's 279 00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:18.559 very fascinating. And that's why lipotore and the statin drugs 280 00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:22.440 they use coq ten, which coq ten is the highest 281 00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:25.400 amount is in your heart because it's an energy molecule 282 00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:28.599 and the heart uses the most energy. So I know, 283 00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:31.480 one day I thought to myself, well, why don't more 284 00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:35.599 people have heart attacks with this stuff? But then I'm like, oh, yeah, 285 00:19:35.680 --> 00:19:39.400 the body has its own consciousness. It's eating up, it's 286 00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:43.359 breaking down the muscle because it's in muscle mostly the 287 00:19:43.400 --> 00:19:47.480 coq ten. It's breaking down the muscle in your thighs 288 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:51.359 in order to get that coq ten to your heart. 289 00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:54.160 You know, I wish we could and I hope that 290 00:19:54.240 --> 00:19:58.519 we do this switch. If we're going to move toward wellness, 291 00:19:58.799 --> 00:20:01.839 we have to view the body. Even vitamin Let's just 292 00:20:01.880 --> 00:20:04.559 take a vitamin, and we think of it as a thing. 293 00:20:04.720 --> 00:20:08.039 But actually it's a system, right. We've got we've got 294 00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:13.200 cholesterol with the hormone vitamin D that that you know converts, 295 00:20:13.200 --> 00:20:17.960 and you need magnesium and K two, and yet there 296 00:20:17.960 --> 00:20:21.480 are so many different options and people don't know who 297 00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:24.319 to trust. I get this question all the time. What 298 00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:27.319 should we be looking for in our whole food? Maybe 299 00:20:27.359 --> 00:20:30.920 we should start by defining what whole food means, because 300 00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:34.960 it's not a diet. It's not a dogmatic kid of ore, carnivore, 301 00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:39.279 paleo whatever. But what is actually whole food? 302 00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:43.839 It's the whole boot, so the whole apple, it's the 303 00:20:43.880 --> 00:20:50.640 whole humeric tablet, not curcumin. Curcumin is a curcuminoid, which 304 00:20:50.680 --> 00:20:55.160 there's three hundred in that plant. So it's very disturbing 305 00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:58.200 to me because it is called curcuma long guys the 306 00:20:58.319 --> 00:21:03.960 name of it that even in research that I read, 307 00:21:04.680 --> 00:21:09.160 are they using curcumin the one thing or are they 308 00:21:09.279 --> 00:21:13.160 using the whole tumeric? And they don't really say and 309 00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:15.680 distinguish that in a lot of the literature. So that's 310 00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:20.480 that's a problem because there's a reason that I'm a Christian, 311 00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:24.960 that God put those in there, you know, and I 312 00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:29.200 you can never outdo God. And you know the amazing thing, 313 00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:32.880 I have the PDR, which was the physician desk reference 314 00:21:32.960 --> 00:21:36.720 of every product in nineteen seventy nine that was a 315 00:21:36.759 --> 00:21:41.799 prescription drug. And Lily Pharmaceutical made a whole vitamin line 316 00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:44.880 and the first thing it had in there was cow liver. 317 00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:48.240 And then it might add some of the extra chemical 318 00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:51.960 to what they call those are called fortified vitamins where 319 00:21:51.960 --> 00:21:55.640 they add a little extra folic acid or B six 320 00:21:55.839 --> 00:22:00.559 or you know whatever. But for the most part, the animal, 321 00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:03.640 even the plant, those are good. They're going to be 322 00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:06.400 absorbed better, They're going to have all the factors and 323 00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:10.640 all of that. But so I'm not negating that, but 324 00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:13.839 it would it would say a whole food vitamin C 325 00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:18.799 for a vegan. Let's say it might say peppers and 326 00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:23.519 cherry aceola, cherries and and some kind of citrus in 327 00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:28.079 there and by and citrus peel of the white part 328 00:22:28.160 --> 00:22:31.720 is where the bioflavonoids are, and so it would have 329 00:22:32.119 --> 00:22:35.640 probably all of those things in there. And for me, 330 00:22:36.079 --> 00:22:38.960 I use the ones that have the animal tissues because 331 00:22:39.359 --> 00:22:41.440 there was a big study like going back to the 332 00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:44.880 methyl tetrahydrofol like they did in Europe. It looked like 333 00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:48.480 it was somebody's dissertation. Actually it was a very long paper. 334 00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:52.720 And what they did they were looking for tetrahydro methl folate. 335 00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:55.880 So they looked in mixed vegetables there was none. They 336 00:22:55.920 --> 00:22:59.440 looked in oat flour, there was none. They looked in 337 00:22:59.559 --> 00:23:01.920 milk with a tiny bit, but when they went to 338 00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:04.759 a pig liver there was a whole bunch of it. 339 00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:07.200 So yeah, so I. 340 00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:10.599 Know, and we will direct our listeners to doctor Lynn 341 00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:13.680 Lafferty dot com on that site. And I also want 342 00:23:13.680 --> 00:23:16.880 to talk before we end about your webinar coming up. 343 00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:20.240 Is there a list or is there a reference of 344 00:23:20.319 --> 00:23:23.640 here's what we can be looking for if you're looking 345 00:23:23.720 --> 00:23:27.359 for a whole food vitamin or even a rubric that 346 00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:29.559 says do I need it? I know a lot of 347 00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:36.880 people take handfuls of supplements and I don't like to 348 00:23:36.880 --> 00:23:39.000 do that either. I try to do it with the 349 00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:42.240 food that I eat. And maybe this is a good 350 00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:47.240 parlay into checking ourselves, whether it's with blood markers or 351 00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:50.279 whether it's how we're feeling or inflammation that we notice, 352 00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:55.920 and that being having that direct us to any supplements 353 00:23:55.960 --> 00:23:56.680 that we may take. 354 00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:01.480 So one of thea you can see and people are 355 00:24:01.519 --> 00:24:05.559 always saying to me, my whole food vitamin C. It 356 00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:10.039 says sixteen milligrams of vitamin C on it. 357 00:24:09.480 --> 00:24:10.559 Because the FDA. 358 00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:13.359 So what the FDA did back in the thirties, they 359 00:24:13.880 --> 00:24:16.480 you know, this was a whole plan. They dumbed everything 360 00:24:16.640 --> 00:24:20.960 down to the least common denominator. So they did the 361 00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:23.720 same thing with vitamins and minerals. You know, we want 362 00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:28.079 to have the one ingredient that's the vitamin not have 363 00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:32.799 you know, have to have this big desiccated adrenal gland 364 00:24:32.880 --> 00:24:35.880 let's sen So one of the ways you can see 365 00:24:36.079 --> 00:24:38.319 is if it has a very high dose and it 366 00:24:38.359 --> 00:24:42.359 says five hundred percent or something like that, because nature 367 00:24:42.599 --> 00:24:45.000 is always going to give you what you need in 368 00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:49.759 the form that you need it. And what they do 369 00:24:50.200 --> 00:24:53.640 is they take a very high dose of one thing, 370 00:24:54.680 --> 00:24:56.319 and a lot of people with vitamin C. 371 00:24:56.519 --> 00:24:59.079 So people will come to me and say, well. 372 00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:01.759 You know, you say this about vitamin C, but you 373 00:25:01.799 --> 00:25:05.240 know I take high doses. I take two thousand milligrams 374 00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:07.240 and it works for me. I don't have a coal 375 00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:10.039 And I say, I'm sure it does, And why does 376 00:25:10.079 --> 00:25:14.519 it work for them? What I believe is our digestive track. 377 00:25:14.599 --> 00:25:18.119 And this is so important because our digestive track has 378 00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:21.319 eighty to eighty five percent of our immune system, and it. 379 00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:24.440 Has to be acid. 380 00:25:24.960 --> 00:25:27.279 It's two in your stomach, then it goes to five 381 00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:30.920 point five in the upper gi all the way down 382 00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:34.240 to six at the lower gi and your colon and 383 00:25:34.279 --> 00:25:38.359 your bowl, your bowl, and so it's all all the way. 384 00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:41.519 It's a city. And so by giving that high dose, 385 00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:45.839 the SAD diet, the standard American diet is actually basic 386 00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:49.640 to that, to the coalon. So you're giving high doses 387 00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:54.799 of aspirin or I'm sorry of the ascorbic acid, and 388 00:25:55.119 --> 00:25:58.759 you're now your bacteria, which play a big part, are 389 00:25:58.880 --> 00:26:04.119 thriving down there because they love acid and the negative bacteria. 390 00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:07.480 It's we went. I had a group of students and 391 00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:09.720 we're going to talk about this in my free webinar 392 00:26:09.880 --> 00:26:13.240 this Sunday. Because there isn't an autoimmune disease, I mean 393 00:26:13.400 --> 00:26:16.960 the way they're describing it. You know. My first lesson 394 00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:19.839 to my students, I say, okay, let's go to Harvard 395 00:26:19.920 --> 00:26:23.039 and let's look up rheumatoid arthritis and it says, oh, 396 00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:25.920 it causes all this pain and it just gets worse 397 00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:28.680 and your joints fall apart. You know, all this stuff, 398 00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:30.799 and it says, oh, and we have no idea, it's 399 00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:34.960 an autoimmune we have no idea what causes it? Really okay, well, 400 00:26:35.160 --> 00:26:39.000 let's go to our own medical library PubMed here, which 401 00:26:39.039 --> 00:26:42.240
