Episode notes
Disease As Cellular Oxidative Imbalance
- Disease results from biomolecules inside cells becoming oxidized by toxins and losing electrons.
- Vitamin C either repairs oxidized biomolecules or neutralizes toxins before they oxidize cells.
Supplement Vitamin C — Not Just Food
- You cannot get adequate vitamin C from diet alone; supplement grams are often needed.
- Aim for multi-gram daily vitamin C supplementation to approach cellular protection, according to Thomas Levy.
Combine Foods To Improve Digestion
- Avoid mixing protein (meat) with simple carbohydrates to improve digestion.
- Poor combinations slow stomach emptying and increase gut putrefaction and toxicity.
