INSIGHT

Kyal's Cancer Theory

Kyal believes cancer arises from toxin accumulation and the body's response.
He views tumors as encapsulations of toxins, not solely genetic malfunctions.

ADVICE

Minimizing Micro-exposures

Reduce micro-toxin exposures by filtering water, using air filters, and avoiding plastics.
These mimic estrogen and contribute to hormonal imbalances.

INSIGHT

Estrogen's Impact

Estrogen's impact, positive or negative, depends on genetics and nutrient status.
MTHFR and COMT genes play key roles in estrogen clearance and methylation.

In this episode, I sit down with Kyal Van Der Leest. You may recognize him because he's been on some of the most influential health & wellness podcasts in the world. He's a degree-qualified Nutritionist, Naturopath, and the founder of LVLUP Health—to dive deep into holistic wellness, disease prevention, and the mission behind LVLUP.

Kyal's passion for health was sparked by his mother's cancer diagnosis, driving him to uncover the root causes of illness and develop a new perspective on what cancer truly is. His approach goes beyond supplements—LVLUP is a company with a mission to optimize health at the deepest level.

Topics of Discussion:

✅ Root Causes of Disease – What's really behind chronic illness? ✅ The Power of Clean Living – How to reduce daily toxin exposure. ✅ LVLUP's Top Supplements – A breakdown of their most impactful products. ✅ Peptides 101 – What they are and how they support optimal health. ✅ Mold Exposure – A hidden root cause of illness & how to test your home. ✅ Glyphosate's Impact – The dangers of this common toxin in our food supply. ✅ Daily Toxin Exposure – Where they hide & simple ways to protect yourself. ✅ Microplastics & Endocrine Disruptors – How to eliminate them from your life. ✅ Water Quality Matters – Why I switched to Mountain Valley Water and how it's been a game changer. (They ship nation wide & I have a special link to save you $ on your order) ✅ The Importance of Relationships & Stress Management – Because even the best supplements and cleanest diet won't help if your work-life balance and emotional health are suffering.

💡 My Personal Experience with LVLUP I can confidently say—LVLUP supplements are LEGIT. They're well-researched, high-quality, and have made a huge impact on my health. In this episode, I share how GI Repair transformed my gut health. But what I didn't mention? HISTA RESIST was a lifesaver when I had a severe wasp sting right before a trip to Thailand. The swelling was out of control, but within hours of taking it, the difference was dramatic. (Yes, I even have before-and-after pics!)
