Microdosing, Detox, Iron Toxicity, Sleeping Cold, Hydrogen Water, And More! Community Q&A Solo Show #301

It’s time for another Community Q&A show! As a reminder, all of these questions are pulled from The Life Stylist Podcast Facebook Group. Hop in, search for us, and find an amazing community of like-minded people.

Before we begin, let me remind you that I am not a medical doctor, so please check with a professional before undergoing any alternative or experimental therapy. I am just sharing with you everything I’ve learned over my own journey and doing 300 episodes of this podcast.

 

08:08 — Cindy asks: I’m wanting to do some mushroom micro dosing and realize the source and quality is very important. Does anyone know of a reputable place where I could purchase this online?

• Microdosing is where you take generally 1/10 or 2/10 of a gram of mushrooms for cognitive benefit
• Much research is currently underway to prove the benefits. There is also a lot of legislative action moving toward legalization
• As of now, psilocybin mushrooms are illegal almost everywhere
• The best thing you can do is ask around, as many people grow them at home these days. Check out online forums, or seek out like minded people in your community that are into plant medicines, etc., such as breathwork classes, sound baths, etc.
• There are even psilocybin mushrooms kits that you can buy online, but to my knowledge it's quite complex in terms of growing them
• Check out www.doubleblindmag.com’s online course about how to grow mushrooms yourself
• When you do find them, consider adding lions mane and a small dose of niacin at the same time, which is the formula made popular by Paul Stamets
• Watch the film Fantastic Fungi to learn more

 

14:43 — Maya asks: What would you recommend for low iron? Not interested in iron supplements for various reasons. Thanks for your wisdom and input!

• The iron issue is very complex because traditional medicine has a very antiquated view on iron level recommendations
• Research Morely Robbins, and consider doing his Root Cause Protocol and read his iron toxicity posts. He’s been on a ton of podcasts as well, and will hopefully be on this show soon.
• I would study the work Ray Peatand about the common misconceptions of low iron
• Depending on which type of doctor has determined you need more iron, the only way I’m aware of to naturally get more of it is to eat red meat, on the rare side
• You can also take beef liver capsules, which I’ll talk about shortly

 

17:08 — Mark asks: Does your OOLER or chiliPAD ever create wet spots on your sheets?

• I have had the chiliPAD and OOLER for a few years and have never had this issue. If that is the case, you might have a leak. They have excellent customer service, so definitely reach out to them for assistance. 
• I did a mini-documentary video on these products here
• I’m a massive fan of these devices, and literally could not live without them. I even travel with my chiliPAD on road trips, and even when I fly to hot cumulates. Nothing has improved my sleep like the Chili Technology products

 

20:46 — Michelle asks: Do you eat liver? If so, which types? Beef, chicken? How often?

• I get grass-fed raw liver from a farm in Bakersfield called Covenant Farms, where I order 1/4 steers.
• Another great source is www.belcampo.com.
• When I have the time and energy, I cut it into little cubes, then freeze it. This way I can pop them down like pills periodically throughout the week.
• Make sure your source is grass-fed and grass-finished. Never eat any factory farm animal foods if you can avoid it. 
• If raw liver is not your jam, you can take desiccated organ meet capsules from Ancestral Supplements
• Beef liver is one of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet and is rich in so many vital vitamins and minerals. There is a reason why predatory animals eat the organs of prey first, then the muscle meat.
• Here are the nutrients found in a 3.5-ounce (100-gram) serving of beef liver:
• Vitamin B12: 3,460% of the RDI. Vitamin B12 helps the formation of red blood cells and DNA. It is also involved in healthy brain function.
• Vitamin A: 860–1,100% of the RDI. Vitamin A is important for normal vision, immune function, and reproduction. It also helps organs like the heart and kidneys function properly.
• Riboflavin (B2): 210–260% of the RDI. Riboflavin is important for cellular development and function. It also helps turn food into energy .
• Folate (B9): 65% of the RDI. Folate is an essential nutrient that plays a role in cell growth and the formation of DNA 
• Iron: 80% of the RDI, or 35% for women of menstruating age. Iron is another essential nutrient that helps carry oxygen around the body.  The iron in the liver is heme iron, the kind most easily absorbed by the body.
• Copper: 1,620% of the RDI. Copper acts like a key to activate a number of enzymes, which then help regulate energy production, iron metabolism, and brain function.
• Choline: Liver provides all of the Adequate Intake (AI) for women and nearly all of it for men (AI is used because there is insufficient evidence to set an RDI). Choline is important for brain development and liver function.

 

27:54 — Erin asks: Hydrogen water - yay or nay? It seems the human research on it is pretty sparse, so any anecdotal experiences would be welcome!

• Hydrogen like the tablets made by Vital Reaction are one of my daily go-to supplements.
• I’ve also used the Vital Reaction hydrogen inhaler for years, also on a daily basis. It’s great for mental clarity.
• Another great product is the Hydro Shot, which is a line of canned hydrogen drinks, some of which contain CBD, amino acids, and other complementary nutrients that enhance the potency of the hydrogen.
• There is a grip of human research courtesy of The Molecular Hydrogen Research Institute.
• Listen to Ep #112 featuring Tyler W. Lebaron, one of the world’s top experts on hydrogen.
• I use it constantly, especially on flights due to its powerful antioxidant capacity. 
• It also protects against EMF exposure, due to its ability to reduce oxidative stress and scavenge free-radicals. Dr Mercola has explained this in many interviews. 
• It’s also a potent anti-inflammatory.
• If I could only use five supplements for the rest of my life, this would be on the list.
• I’m recording a show with Robert Slovak next week in Mexico, and we’ll cover Hydrogen in depth, so stay tuned for that. 

 

32:14 — Ditte asks: From your IG posts and stories, it looks like that you don't do that much IV vitamin therapy. Is that correct? If so, why?

• I love nutrient IV’s, although I don’t always post my treatments on IG. It’s hard to use your phone with a drip in your arm.
• I did once record an entire podcast with an IV in my arm though, which you can hear on episode #181 featuring Lily Kunin, focused on IV’s. 
• You get much better absorption doing IV’s as compared to swallowing pills. Something like 20% vs. 90% bioavailability. 
• I get them often at Next Health in LA
• They are great before and after travel, and anytime you need an immunity boost.
• You can get many different recipes or mixes, although most clinics will still use the term “Myers Cocktail,” which is the old-school combination of vitamins and minerals.
• I’m also a fan of IV NAD treatments for energy, or ATP production specifically. 
• In an upcoming episode with Dr. Craig Koniver, we talk about IV’s and NAD in depth. 

 

36:30 — Laurie asks: Any suggestions for muscle soreness and back pain? Doctors are prescribing naproxen or Advil 600. There has to be a better way.

• I have been working on my back pain for many years, and here are but a few of the things that have helped:
• Egoscue
• Network Spinal Analysis, or NSA (listen to the show I did with the creator Donny Epstein)
• FRC or Functional Range Conditioning by Dr Andreo Spina is amazing for joint health and mobility, which is the source of much back pain. I’ll do a show and treatment with him as soon as I can get into Canada.
• The Biomat and Therasage heating pads are great for pain relief.
• Dr. Matt Cook in San Jose is doing amazing work on pain using stem cells, peptides, and all sorts of cutting edge modalities. He’ll also be on the show soon to discuss his strategies. 
• Kundalini Yoga - I’ve done a few shows on this with Guru Jagat, Guru Singh, and Tej Khalsa
• Katonah Yoga (Episode #89 with Abbie Galvin)
• Stem cell treatment (Episode #133 with Dr. Harry Adelson)
• Ice baths are my #1 hack for pain and inflammation. I do them daily, sometimes twice.
• As for pain meds, I would avoid them at all costs. Instead, one could use Kratom, which comes in a very potent extract or regular powder and capsules. Be mindful not to get high or addicted. However, as a former opiate addict, I have not had issues with dependency. I use it with caution.
• Check out the film ‘A Leaf Of Faith’ to learn all about Kratom. It’s an incredible natural pain killer. 
• There are tons of Kratom sites online, so make sure you buy from one that lab tests for mold, heavy metals, etc. Sacred Kratom.com seems to be legit.

 

48:21 — Avery asks: Could someone give me a detailed detox protocol? It's for a family friend. She is having a lot of gut issues, along with 5 stomach ulcers. I'm looking for a protocol that involves supplementation as well as a diet that goes along with it. Please keep the ulcers in mind when recommending just in case you are aware if any part of the protocol could negatively impact the ulcers.

• I’ve been detoxing toxins, drugs, and heavy metals from my system for two decades.
• The best programs I’ve found are:
• The Black Box by Quicksilver Scientific. It's the most simple to use, and a great one to start with.
• Study the work of Dr. Chris Shade (Episode #210), who’s one of the world’s leading experts on detox.
• Another detox master is Dr. Dan Pompa, who was on Episode #121. He’s got a great cellular detox program as well. 
• Both of them are my go-to doctors when it comes to detox
• For a more hardcore approach, you can do the L. Ron Hubbard niacin/sauna 30-day protocol, which you can learn about by watching Dr. George Yu’s video lectures. 
• There is also a Facebook Group led by Bret Bouer, who also does coaching. This is what I did to remove the lead and mercury from my body. It worked, but it was a commitment.

 

51:58 — Priscilla asks: Okay people as we are moving into Fall and with everything that has been going on, what are you stocking up on? I keep hearing selenium, vit c, zinc, magnesium, and monolaurin etc.

• All of those are great immune supporters.
• I would add infrared saunas, ice baths, get enough sun, and focus on quality sleep.
• Avoiding the mainstream media is also great for your immune system.
• For solid information around the so-called pandem!c visit www.questioningcovid.com, where you will find more fact-based information on the situation.
• Also look forward to the upcoming episode with Dr Zach Bush #304, wherein he pretty much destroys the official COV!D narrative. 

 

51:58 —Stiff asks: Can anyone recommend an audio hypnotherapy/reprogramming meditation along the lines of what Bruce Lipton and Joe Dispenza talks about?

• Try Hemi-Sync audio programs.
• NuCalm if you can afford it (Episode #265 w/ Jim Poole).
• There are many cheap or free binaural beats apps as well, but they are not as effective over time.
• The Joe Dispenza meditation MP3’s on his site are fantastic and I use them daily. He explains how they work in Episode #259.
• Hire a hypnotherapist and record the sessions for later self-hypnosis

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them? 

Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities?

Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated?

EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to.

In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF.

By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.
