Jeff Lioon dives into the science behind Oligoscan technology, discussing the relationship between iodine and fluoride, copper toxicity, differences in testing methods, the impact of environmental toxins on vitamin and mineral balance, and trends observed in over 1500 scans. The conversation sheds light on the complexities of mineral imbalances, heavy metal toxicity, and detox methods to maintain optimal health.
The Oligoscan test utilizes spectrophotometry to analyze palm tissue for vitamins, minerals, and heavy metals absorption.
Understanding trends in mineral levels from over 1500 scans can reveal hidden toxicities linked to specific exposures.
Balancing nutrient levels like sodium, potassium, and silica is crucial for overall health and detecting deficiencies.
Environmental toxins such as antimony from plastic can disrupt hormonal balance and hinder weight loss efforts.
Deep dives
Interconnection of Vitamin and Mineral Heavy Metal Interactions
The episode delves into the complex interactions between vitamins, minerals, and heavy metals. Jeff Leone discusses how these elements are connected, highlighting the impact of copper toxicity, zinc blockage, and the significance of balancing nutrient levels. The discussion extends to various toxicities like fluoride, iodine, and their effects, emphasizing the importance of understanding these relationships to maintain overall health.
In-Depth Analysis of Olego Scan Results
The podcast touches on the analysis of over 1500 Olego scans performed by Jeff Leone. Insights reveal common patterns such as high metal toxicities linked to specific professions or exposures. Notable examples include elevated nickel and cobalt levels due to amalgam fillings, illustrating how the scan can unveil hidden sources of toxicity and their impact on overall health.
Role of Minerals and Vitamins in Health
The discussion extends to the role of minerals and vitamins, emphasizing the importance of maintaining balance in nutrient levels. Specific elements like sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and silica are highlighted, showcasing how trends in these minerals can indicate potential health issues or deficiencies. The importance of reducing toxin exposure and ensuring proper nutrient absorption emerges as a key theme.
Understanding the Impact of Environmental Toxins
The episode sheds light on the detrimental effects of environmental toxins on health, focusing on common exposures like air pollution, plastic contamination, and chemical residues. Insights into how toxins like antimony from plastic bottles can disrupt hormonal balance and hinder weight loss efforts are discussed, underscoring the need to address these environmental concerns for overall well-being.
The Importance of Environmental Health in Beverage Choices
Choosing aluminum cans for beverages over plastic due to the ease of excretion of aluminum and potential concerns with the inner lining of tetra packs used in beverages.
Exploring the Health Impacts of Aluminum Exposure
Discussion about the challenges of detoxifying aluminum, including using zeolite and sweating, and the impact of aluminum toxicity on health.
Connecting Emotional Health and Heavy Metal Exposure
Observations on the emotional impact of copper toxicity and its connection to anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues, highlighting the importance of balancing minerals for emotional well-being.
Benefits of Nature and Hunting on Personal Growth
Personal reflection on the benefits of connecting with nature and experiencing hunting as a meditative and spiritual practice for personal growth and self-awareness.
The Oligoscan test uses the science of spectrophotometry to see the absorption and reflection of light from vitamins, minerals and heavy metals stored in the tissue of the palm of your hand. If it sounds too good to be true, you'll be surprised to hear the legitimate science behind it from the son of one of the original global distributors of Oligoscan, Jeff Lioon.
He breaks down how the technology works in this show but the majority of it is focused on deciphering the test itself and describing all of the complex interactions between our environmental toxins, diet, lifestyle habits, and how those affect our vitamin and mineral balance.
We talk about the relationship between iodine and fluoride, why kryptopyrroluria is a big deal, how we get copper toxic, the difference between oligoscan and other tests, what low vitamin B9 means, the silica and aluminum connection, what high antimony means, what high gadolinium usually means, where antimony is coming from in our environment, the excretor theory, and trends that hes seen in the over 1500 scans he's done on clients.
