Growing up, he was trying to become an NHL hockey player. Sadly, his parents split up, and he moved across the country. At his new school, Lance was bullied terribly. Then, Lance got the stepmom from hell, which made his life even worse. Looking back, all this adversity was his greatest teacher. Eventually, Lance discovered alcohol – it allowed him to numb his feelings and realize that he can invent a new person. A few stupid mistakes cost Lance his career – he experimented with steroids and felt like he let his family down. Later, Lance lost his younger brother to suicide and his dad to cancer within 18 months. It was a total wake-up call. He has learned to accept his story - all the good, the bad, and the ugly. [09:55] Getting Clear And Finding Fulfillment After Overcoming Adversity In order to achieve anything great, there's always going to be some sort of resistance. Adversity is a level of struggle or resistance that is going to challenge you. We need to see adversity as necessary. The challenge is resistance for getting us to the next level. Fulfilment comes from overcoming something that you felt you couldn't do. [14:45] How To Start Building That Life Of Abundance And Happiness First, pay attention to how you feel. What story are you telling yourself? So many of the stories that we tell ourselves just aren't true. Get clear on what you want your story to be. Getting clear will take a lot of contemplating and reflecting. We get to create the present moment as a fresh, clean slate. An action step would be to start journaling - the awareness and the consciousness is so important. [18:35] Sacred Takeaways & What To Understand From Using Ayahuasca As Medicine Lance had a deep calling to do this medicine – ayahuasca. This medicine has a lot to do with answering your intuition. Ayahuasca is a mixture of powerful plants. It creates a psychedelic experience that will force you to look at your subconscious thoughts. Usually, things that you don't want to look at. Lance’s journey is to help people heal and help people transform. He likes to experience the different modalities of transformation, including ayahuasca. The power of the medicine literally changed Lance’s life. Lance has had a lot of anxiety and fear in his life - it forced him to sit through that. Plus, everybody has to learn to trust themselves. Ayahuasca is one way to start that journey. [27:40] The Powerful Story Of Conquering Trauma, Addiction & Professional Hockey Lance interviewed Theo Fleury- he was sexually abused and has such a powerful story. Theo shook up the world. His story forced people to look at their life and have conversations that are uncomfortable. That episode was really important for Lance, and it inspired him and on so many levels. You can listen to this episode here: https://universityofadversity.captivate.fm/episode/ep-144-theo-fleury-conquering-trauma-addiction-professional-hockey They dive into Theo’s incredible life journey, the struggles he’s been faced with, and what he had to do to overcome them in order to become the man he is today. [32:00] Practical Ways To Transform Your Life Using Gratitude & Writing Gratitude will completely transform your life. Start at the very basic level - you have to start somewhere. Pick up a journal and start writing. If you're struggling, the best way to express yourself is in your journal - start with your gratitude list. Next, start breathing. Just watch your breath. Another strategy is reading. Reading is a great way to calm your mind. Don’t check your phone for sixty minutes after you wake up. “Discipline equals the freedom that you want.” -Lance Essihos [42:05] Healthy Eating To Fuel Your Mind, Body, & Spirit Pay attention to the things that don't serve you. If sugar doesn’t make you feel good, then don’t eat it! When you eat well and focus on sleep - it just completely changes everything. The key is fine-tuning what you thrive on best. [46:50] How Lance Is Changing The World & Improving People’s Lives This book, Mastering Adversity, will help you go from living your life in the backseat as a victim into the driver seat of empowerment. Lance tells people how to develop a deeper awareness, understanding, and acceptance of ourselves and our stories so we can begin to create new stories, a new identity, and a different perspective on adversity in our lives. This book is written for those whose vocabulary boils down to challenges and adversities. The reader is ready to get out of the backseat of victim mentality and into the driver seat of empowerment.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Richard P. Jacoby. With offices located in Scottsdale and Peoria, AZ, podiatrist Richard P. Jacoby, DPM of Extremity Health Centers has the equipment and expertise to tackle all of your foot or ankle concerns. While skilled in treating various foot and ankle conditions, Dr. Jacoby specializes particularly in the treatment of peripheral neuropathy. He is an expert in the Dellon® surgical procedure, which is a type of nerve decompression surgery used to restore sensation, relieve pain, and prevent ulceration and amputation. Dr. Richard P. Jacoby, DPM has won the Phoenix Magazine Top Docs Award on four different occasions (2003, 2005, 2008, and 2010), and with his 49 years of experience, he is the podiatrist you seek to treat all of your foot and ankle concerns. In this episode, Dr. Jacoby opens the show speaking about his backstory researching diabetes for Taiwan's Surgeon General. We talk about Dr. Jacoby's book, Sugar Crush: How to Reduce Inflammation, Reverse Nerve Damage, and Reclaim Good Health. As one of the country's leading peripheral nerve surgeons, Dr. Jacoby reveals his theory about the relationship between sugar consumption and many disease processes we don't typically associate with high sugar diets. Plus, we chat about how to boost your immune system to protect yourself from Covid-19.  / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

Jacoby’s Research For The Surgeon General of Taiwan The Surgeon General asked Dr. Jacoby of Taiwan to figure out why people there had diabetes. After doing research, Dr. Jacoby told the Surgeon General that it was their diet. Luckily, Dr. Jacoby was able to educate them on insulin resistance, diabetes, and the cause of their health problems. [04:00] Sugar Is Not Only A Drug, But It’s Also A Toxic Poison Too Sugar is a poison. Table sugar is really glucose, which is not sweet, mixed with fructose, which is sweet. Well, that’s a disaccharide which is a poison. Most people love this poison because the hippocampus in your brain is the addiction center. The brain will turn off enzymes that cause satiation. Sugar is probably 20 times worse than cocaine. Ancel Keys told us that cholesterol was causing heart disease; however, that’s a total lie. Every process in the body is nerve-muscle function. Through Dr. Jacoby Global Compression Theory, he links carbohydrates to conditions like plantar fasciitis, Alzheimer's disease, MS, ALS, and Autism. If you're carrying the genes and eating sugar, you're going to get that particular disease. [20:15] Avoiding The Hidden Dangers Of High-Fructose Corn Syrup 80% of all the food in the United States has high-fructose corn syrup in it. High-fructose corn syrup is made by putting the corn in sodium hydroxide. For many years, they were using mercury to separate the starch from the husk. Plus, it’s grown with glyphosate, which is the main ingredient in Roundup. This is one of the reasons that Autism is so high. [24:30] How Does The Immune System Fight Covid-19? The vaccine does not prevent you from getting the vaccine. It will change your response to the virus. Why do some people die from a virus and other people don’t? If your immune system is down, it won’t be able to kill the virus. While on the other hand, if you have a healthy immune system, it will kill anything. The higher our inflammatory levels, the lower our vitamin D levels will be. Take vitamin D, vitamin C, zinc, melatonin, and don't eat sugar. That way, you have a 99.9% chance of not dying from this virus. [33:00] Our Food Supply In The United States Is Making The Virus Worse      Jacoby isn’t telling people don't eat sugar. He’s saying if you do eat sugar, then you're going to die. Sugar tastes great – it’s a drug! We all eat it. However, we should know better in 2021. Sadly, our tax dollars are broadcasting lies. Plus, we are wearing masks and being told to stay inside. Money and control are at the root of our problems. There is a direct link between sugar in our diet and nerve damage, which results in a wide range of chronic, debilitating diseases that are seemingly unrelated. [41:30] Your Body Is Built To Heal Itself + How You Can Help Stop eating sugar, get vitamin D, vitamin C, melatonin, get sun, and you’re going to be fine. That’s what it takes for your body to handle the virus. Jacoby says that if you are selling the keto diet, then you should be able to open your restaurants. If your restaurant is selling sugar, then you need to stay closed. People should be outraged! We can empower others and change the entire outcome of our country. [49:15] How To Kick Your Sugar Addiction + Help Your Health Jacoby puts butter in his coffee, and it changed everything. Italians put butter in their coffee. Human beings eat fat – that’s their natural diet. Sugar is not in our natural diet. You can also put sea salt in your coffee to replenish electrolytes. If you just eat fat, then you will live forever. Theoretically, all you need is fat because you will make your own sugar. [52:50] Artificial Sweeteners Could Be The Poison Ruining Your Health Artificial sugar is still a sugar molecule with a toxin. Monkfruit and stevia are okay. Once you get on keto, you won’t want to eat that sweet taste. Anything that ends in “ose” is bad. Words with “ol” like alcohol is sugar alcohol. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me the Founder and CEO of ENERGYbits, Catharine Arnston. Catharine started ENERGYbits after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal. Catharine immediately sprung into action to help her sister research alkaline foods and in the process she discovered algae. When Catharine learned that algae was the most alkaline, plant-based, nutrient-dense food in the world and had been used for fifty years in Asia to improve health and longevity, she knew she had discovered something big (and yes, her sister fully recovered - thanks for asking). As Catharine dug into the science of algae, she learned it had 64% protein, 40 vitamins/minerals and was endorsed by the United Nations and NASA as the most nutrient dense food in the world. She also discovered there were 100,000 studies documenting its long list of benefits and it was the most sustainable, eco-friendly food crop in the world. And yet algae remained virtually unknown outside of Asia. How could this be possible? Catharine knew algae could be a game changer for our health, our children and our world if she could only convince people it wasn't weird. And so ENERGYbits was born. It took Catharine ten years to bring algae into the mainstream and build ENERGYbits into a national company. We're glad she finally did, because now you and your family can benefit from our naturally grown, toxin-free, Non-GMO algae tablets too. A handful will help satisfy your hunger, help give you steady energy, and help ensure your nutritional needs are met. All this from a food that has one ingredient, no chemicals, caffeine, sugar or processing and is the most sustainable, safe, eco-friendly, crop in the world - algae. Your body and Mother Earth say thank you. And we do too. In this episode, Catharine Arnston reveals the inspiration behind her algae research. After her sister's battle with breast cancer, Catharine knew she needed to get her message about the power of algae out and into the world. Algae has so many robust benefits, especially for people on the ketogenic or carnivore diet. Today is all about microalgae – it's called that because it's microscopic, 100 cells of microalgae could fit on the head of a pin. We talk about the differences between spirulina and chlorella. Plus, we dive into the importance of K2, omega-3, and why you need to ditch that fish oil. / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

About 12 years ago, her younger sister developed breast cancer. Her oncologist in Canada said to change her diet to an alkaline diet because it would help with her healing. An alkaline diet is primarily a plant-based diet because of the phytonutrients in the chlorophyll – it has been proven to build your immune system. Alkaline is also very beneficial for anyone on a carnivore or keto diet. Algae is the most alkaline food globally; it's also the most nutrient-dense food in the world. One gram of algae has the same nutrition as 1,000 grams of fruits and vegetables. There are no anti-nutrients because algae is not technically a plant. It doesn't have any oxalates, phytates, or lectins. [09:45] The Importance of Supporting Our Body's Cells Using Algae You have microalgae and macroalgae. Today we're talking about microalgae – it’s called that because it's microscopic in size, something like 100 cells of microalgae could fit on the head of a pin. The two we're going to talk about are spirulina and chlorella. They are not toxic because they are harvested in freshwater. Spirulina was the first life on Earth about 4 billion years ago. If you put the spirulina in the water, you'll see this blue, beautiful blue color come out. While on the other hand, chlorella is just a green pigment. Well, chlorella is a fat-based pigment. Spirulina has been scientifically proven to intercept the Covid virus. Also, it’s very energizing and an organic source of iron. Plus, it will help avoid the keto flu because it doesn’t increase your glucose or decrease or ketones. You can stay in your intermittent fasting without hunger using spirulina. Chlorella has the most chlorophyll. If you're not eating greens, you're missing out on this really wonderful nutrient. It will heal your cell walls, and it's effectively building your blood. [24:10] The Reasons We Need Quality K2 In Our Diets K2 will pull out excess calcium from soft tissue. Almost everyone is deficient in K2 - that's exactly why heart disease started escalating. It can certainly help with your longevity and your appearance by pulling out all that excess calcium. [27:50] The Strong Benefits Of Chlorophyll For The Keto Lifestyle Chlorophyll is like your cleanup squad for absorbing extra free radicals. When you match chlorophyll with sunlight, it actually generates ATP. So effectively, you're recycling the neutron or the electron so that it can generate ATP. Overall, the hack here is to consume some chlorophyll in the form of a high-quality source and then get some red light therapy or go outside in the sun. [37:40] Let's Get Omega-3 From Algae Instead of Rotten Fish Oil The spirulina has more omega-3. So, if you're looking for brain health, that's the one you want for sure. You will absorb 99% of the omega-3 from algae rather than 5% from fish oil. The demand for fish oil is killing entire species of fish. In the oceans, we have dead zones. That won't happen with algae because it grows in freshwater, and you can grow it anywhere. Plus, fish oil goes rancid even before you buy it. Well, algae will never go bad. [42:20] The Most Significant Amount of Tryptophan Globally Is In Algae Catharine usually recommends taking the spirulina in the morning and then again in the afternoon before a workout. Take the chlorella any time of day, but definitely before you go to bed. Chlorella has the highest concentration of tryptophan. It helps you with sleeping. It won't make you sleepy, but it will just facilitate the sleep process. When you are sleeping, that is when your body goes through a detox and repair cycle. When you have chlorella in your body while you're sleeping, it will be able to facilitate that detox much better. Also, chlorella particularly will help with peristalsis and bowel movements.

Today, I am blessed to have a THIRD conversation with Dr. John A. Lieurance. He is a Chiropractic Doctor, Registered Medical Assistant, Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Expert, and has practiced in Sarasota for 24 years.   Dr. Lieurance has a gift for difficult cases where other practitioners have failed. With the successful integration of Functional Neurology, Chiropractic, Naturopathy, Nutrition using the Asyra, Detoxification Programs and LumoMed inner ear therapy. His Musculoskeletal Ultrasound training includes over 100 hours through the Gulf Coast Ultrasound Institute, 60 hours through AAOM, 90 hours through AOAPRM, and 60 through TOBI. He also has extensive training for sterile lab procedures and the processing of blood platelets, bone marrow aspirate, and adipose tissue through Oregen Biologics, Emcyte Corporation, Ron Gardener, M.D. (orthopedic surgeon), Regenestem and the Ageless Regenerative Institute. He has been an assistant instructor for hands on practicum for diagnosis using musculoskeletal ultrasound for the 3rd Annual Platelet Rich Plasma & Regenerative Medicine Symposium in Los Angeles, California in 2015, and was a speaker at the Florida Chiropractic Physicians Association (FCPA) in Orlando, Florida in 2016 on Clinical Applications of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound. He has completed training with Dr Richie Shoemaker in 2019 for diagnosis & treatment of CIRS and with the “Shoemaker Protocol”. His techniques include Continuing Chiropractic Education: Chiropractic Neurology, – Applied Kinesiology “AK”, Cold Laser Therapy, Extremity Adjusting, Sports Injury Taping, Rehabilitation of Sports Injuries, Lumbar and Cervical Disc Decompression, Pettibon Scoliosis through the Carrick Institute of Functional Neurology as well as Vestibular Rehabilitation & Movement Disorders through the Carrick Institute in 2012,’16, ’17, ’18. Dr. Lieurance is the developer of Functional Cranial Release and teaches, as well as certifies, these methods to doctors around the world. In this episode, Dr. Lieurance opens the show by talking about my recent visit to his clinic. First, we dive into what we need to understand about back pain. When someone has back pain, the pain isn't the problem. Instead, it's what is causing the pain is the problem. If you're suffering from pain, then it's critical to get down to the root cause. That way, you can start getting proper treatment. We chat about TRT treatment, AVACEN, and PRP injections for back pain. Plus, we talk about the importance of fasting and why you want to consider taking a NAD supplement. https://www.mitozen.com/ketokamp/ / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. [01:50] Understanding Back Pain Anybody that has back pain, their problem isn't the pain. Instead, the problem is what's causing the pain. Chiropractors are taught to look at structural aspects of the spine. When you make an adjustment on a patient, you're actually improving the mechanical movement of the spine. When people have back pain, they’re convinced something is wrong with a disc. However, it may not be a disc at all. That’s why Dr. Lieurance likes prolotherapy. It’s a procedure where a natural irritant is injected into the soft tissue of an injured joint. Temporarily, you'll have relief from your pain. If the pain goes away, then the person needs to do a series of injections to heal the core of the problem.  [07:50] Healing The Body With TRT Treatment TRT (tissue regeneration technology) can help heal your body. The depth of penetration of this machine can treat hips and lower backs; it is really exceptional. TRT will stimulate stem cells and improve circulation. Dr. Lieurance will use that on a lot of patients with neuropathy. Any area where there's damage in the body, we can use TRT treatment to enhance significant healing in the body. [10:10] How The AVACEN Works The AVACEN works on the sympathetic, parasympathetic nervous system. There's an incredible amount of representation of the hand in the brain. So, giving stimulus to the hand can have very powerful effects on the autonomics. Your autonomics are really the area of your nervous system that are taking the stress when you are in sympathetic. Basically, the AVACEN will switch people more into the resting and digesting mode. [13:10] Getting PRP Injections The PRP injections are done around the ligaments. The PRP goes in as a liquid, and there's a little bit of an anesthetic in there. Very shortly after, it turns into a solid, like gelatin. Basically, it's grafting where the damage is in your back. The process is quick, but it is not enjoyable. PRP shots will help remove some of that fatty tissue in the back. These fatty tissues will develop in the back when those muscles aren't getting activated enough. [20:20] The Feast-Famine Cycle Calorie intake is what dictates this feast-famine signaling. You're signaling your body to grow and repair, or you're signaling your body to clean and recycle. We have access to unlimited food, all season, all day, all night, and we take advantage of that. When you're feeding, you're inhibiting your body to actually clean and repair itself. So, we want to balance that out. That is why intermittent-fasting and fasting have become so popular. People are finding that fasting is mitigating a lot of diseases; they're literally able to reverse diabetes. Plus, fasting can improve cancer, autoimmune diseases, degenerative neurologic diseases, and all sorts of things. If you look at a lot of diseases, it’s happening because there is too much growth. Overall, balance is the answer. [34:15] About NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) NAD is a substance that the mitochondria use to make energy, and it becomes depleted very quickly. When you provide NAD you're giving a lot of energy to the mitochondria. Sadly, every twenty years, you get a 50% decline in your energy levels. If you're not sleeping, you're drinking alcohol, or you have chronic stress, then you are greatly depleting your NAD. Lieurance created NAD+Max. Each suppository contains 500mg of NAD+, 250mg of NR (Nicotinamide Riboside), and 250mg of NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide). You can find it here: https://www.mitozen.com/product/nadmax/?v=7516fd43adaa. [38:45] How The Microbiome Will Benefit From Fasting Fasting is a stressor to the microbiome. You have all these critters in your gut. When you take away food, then you are taking away its nutrients. So, it will be doing the same thing for them that it is doing for you – clearing the weaker bacteria. Once you start to refeed, that's when the microbiome can actually come back stronger. You will have a more robust gut, and you will have stronger bacteria. [43:35] What To Do After The Fast After the fast, you want to signal the body to go and do repairs. For the most part, we want to signal mTOR after a fast, and the best way to do that is with protein. Lieurance is a big fan of essential amino acids as a supplement. If you really want to support your microbiome in its repair and regeneration, then take high-dose melatonin.   AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Sylvia Tara. She holds a Ph.D. in biochemistry from The University of California, San Diego, and an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. She was a healthcare management consultant with McKinsey & Company and has worked for the world's largest biotechnology companies. After an extended battle with fat, Dr. Tara became fascinated with its resiliency and embarked on a mission to better understand it. This book culminated in years of research and interviews with physicians, patients, and leading scientists. The Secret Life of Fat will forever change how you think about this misunderstood organ. Dr. Sylvia Tara is the author of the book, The Secret Life of Fat. This new book brings together historical perspective and cutting-edge research to reveal fat's true identity: an organ critical to our health. In this episode, Dr. Sylvia Tara reveals the inspiration behind her fat research. We usually think fat is simply storing calories. What most people don't know is that fat serves many purposes. Also, there are different types of fats. We dive into everything you need to know about fat, including what's vital about leptin and adiponectin. Later, we discuss the difference between men and women when it comes to fat loss. Plus, we talk about which types of exercises will be critical on your health journey.  / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off. [00:30] About Dr. Sylvia Tara Sylvia gains weight really easily. Her whole life, she watches people eat whatever they feel like, drink whatever they want, and not gain any weight. So, Dr. Sylvia decided to understand fat once and for all. She went on a big expedition to really understand fat. She wanted to know why she would gain fat easier than other people. The Secret Life of Fat is based on all this research! We think of fat as storage for calories; however, it’s so much more than that. [02:25] What Is Fat? Fat is a complex endocrine organ that has multiple functions: Storing calories. Producing leptin – which has a great effect on our brains, our bones, and multiple organs. Creating adiponectin – which has a lot of impact on where our fat is stored. [03:25] What You Need to Know About Leptin Our fat produces this hormone called leptin. It's the biggest producer of leptin in the body, and fat releases it into the bloodstream. Once leptin goes to the bloodstream, it goes to your brain; it'll tell your brain that you’re overall satisfied. Basically, the brain will know that you are good, there's enough nutrition in the world, and you are okay. Leptin will also communicate with your muscles. It tells your muscles that it's okay to expend energy because you have enough nutrition. When we start to lose fat and begin to lose weight, say 10% or more, we reduce the amount of leptin we have. So, people who've lost 10% or more of their body weight respond enormously to food. Overall, once you've lost weight, you have to eat less than someone who's at that weight normally. It is why diets don’t work! [07:15] The Role of Adiponectin Adiponectin is more or less telling fat where to go. When we have dietary fat, adiponectin will guide the fat in our bloodstream to the right parts of our body. So there's different kinds of fat, there's white fat. It's right under the skin, it's in your thighs, buttocks, arms, and it's actually the safest places to deposit fat. If you're going to have some fat, those are the places to put it. There's also visceral fat; it sits underneath the stomach wall. It is the more dangerous fat that's nestled against the internal pancreas organ. There's brown fat – it burns calories instead of storing calories. Plus, there is beige fat – it that can turn brown when we exercise. Overall, adiponectin will help guide the fat you eat and put it into the right place.  [09:20] How Exercise Can Help Adiponectin     It’s around 20 hours of jogging a week to get adequate levels of adiponectin. That is when your body will start to shift around where your fat is. High-intensity interval training will also help raise your levels of adiponectin. You have to exercise a lot before it starts to affect you. It's best to work with your diet and do some exercise. Don't rely on exercise alone! [11:10] How To Get More Brown Fat Brown fat is actually used to create heat. We have brown fat around our heart; we have it around the clavicle areas and our spines. Having brown fat around those important areas is critical. These areas need to be heated even when we don't have exposure to cold. Beige fat, which was discovered last decade, is the fat that can turn brown through exercise. The more you exercise, the more you can increase your levels of brown fat. Exposure to cold will also increase your brown fat. [13:45] Women Produce 33% More Ghrelin Than Men After Exercise Women are designed just to have more fat. There are many reasons for this: Fat produces estrogen. Fat is linked to our reproducibility. When women exercise, they have a different reaction than men. Women’s bodies produce ghrelin after exercise, and it's a hormone that's released from your stomach. If you burn off 600 calories or so, women produce 33% more ghrelin than men. There's all kinds of dieting tips for women versus men because women are different. [17:30] How Women Can Lose Body Fat Women have to be really patient, and you have to understand where you are on the spectrum of fat. Everyone has an individual fat blueprint. You have to understand your fat, and you have to be really forgiving of yourself. Another issue with women is that they have something called dichotomous thinking. [22:05] The Role Of How To Use Intermittent Fasting For Fat Loss Our growth hormone peaks at night. So, fasting during the nighttime will benefit your body because eating mitigates growth hormone levels. You want growth hormones because it’s a great way to burn fat. If you sleep adequately, you're increasing your levels of leptin, which means you're going to be a little bit more satiated the next day during fasting. [26:30] Strategies To Keep Insulin At Bay Fiber will bring down insulin. Eating higher protein diets, lower carbs, and obviously not a ton of sugar will also help keep insulin at bay. Fasting enables you to manage insulin, and it helps with insulin sensitivity. [31:35] The Role of Genetics In Fat Storage To manage your fat, you have to work harder if you're at a genetic disadvantage. Some people tend to have a much higher appetite because they have a certain variant of the FTO gene. [35:30] How Environmental Factors Affect Fat The Four P’s: Pesticides Plastics Preservatives Parabens Overall, it's important to really watch what you eat and watch what you put on your body. Think about what's really in the food that you eat! [43:45] Testing Your Fat The best way to test your fat is a CT scan. Sadly, there is no easier way to find out.  [48:20] Correlation Between Stress & Fat Stress is linked to abdominal fat. Exercise can be a perfect solution for people to lower their stress levels.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me for the THIRD time Dr. Jeff Matheson. He is the co-founder of an all-natural migraine and headache centre, which promotes a non-narcotic approach to pain and headache management. Plus, Dr. Jeff Matheson is the co-founder and medical director of Pure Life Science. Dr. Jeff Matheson successfully practiced medicine in emergency departments across Canada and internationally, from Ontario, Newfoundland, and Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. He later was appointed Medical Director of Med-EmergInc in 1998, a company dedicated to staffing underserved hospitals in Canada. Dr. Matheson has traveled extensively throughout Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and South East Asia and well as Oceania. According to Dr. Matheson, “traveling is the best education!” Dr. Matheson is an enthusiastic believer, as well as being immersed in other cultures. Similarly, if one does not listen to patients, one won’t hear what is necessary to understand the patient’s problem, i.e., the patient’s “culture.” It is with this ability to listen and empathize with the patients that Dr. Matheson allows an accurate diagnosis and develop sustainable solutions, optimizing health, and patient outcomes. If a solution cannot be determined, resources will be dedicated, through the involvement of alternative care specialists, ascertaining the best possible treatment for the patient by trying to treat causes, not just manage symptoms. In this episode, Dr. Jeff Matheson dives straight into how our body will produce energy through our cell membranes. If someone lacks energy, they usually think they have a hormone problem, meaning they need to take more hormones. However, that's not the case. Dr. Jeff Matheson explains how our hormones require a delicate balance; adding exogenous hormones will push our bodies out of balance. Instead, think about making different nutritional decisions to fix any hormone irregularities. Later, we discuss why keto and fasting are great for our cells and why fish oils aren't so great for them. Tune in as we chat all about Pure Life Omegas. Pure Form Omega: https://purelifescience.com/products/pure-form-omega-natural (Use code: Ben4) Pure Form Omega Liquid: https://purelifescience.com/products/pure-form-omega-liquid (Use code: Ben3) [01:15] How Our Body Will Produce Energy We're made up of about 70 trillion cells. Our body is great at communication, not only within each organ but between organs. All this communication is done through the cell membranes. The cell membrane is the basic divide between the outside world and the inside world – that’s where the fundamental communication takes place. All hormonal issues boil down to unhealthy cell membranes.   [03:45] Hormones Aren’t That Simple Hormones need a delicate balance. If you start adding exogenous hormones into the system, you're going to push that system out of balance. How adding exogenous hormones into your body will affect you later on down the road is really difficult to predict. The whole hormonal cascade is extremely complex. When people correct their underlying nutritional issues, usually within six to nine months, they should be able to come off all exogenous hormones.   [06:25] Bad Things That Develop In Our Cells The problem that will affect people first is mitochondrial issues. The mitochondria is a very high-energy place, it's supposed to produce lots of energy, but it can be screwed up fairly easily. The first thing that people feel is fatigue - that's that mitochondria sort of breaking down. Later down the road, genetic issues will show up, and that’s when you start getting cancers.   [09:15] Why Your Supplements Might Not Be Working If you have an unhealthy cell membrane, things can't get in. On average, the cell membrane is 50% fat. If you have abnormal fats in that cell membrane, that membrane becomes more like plastic. When you put plastic wrap on something, not a lot of stuff gets through. So, you won't be able to get good things in very efficiently, and you won't be able to get the bad things out very efficiently. It's only a matter of time in that kind of situation until you have a total cell breakdown.   [14:30] How Keto & Fasting Help Support The Cell Membrane   The brain is about 70% fat – it operates on keto about seven to eleven times more efficiently than on carbohydrates. Fat-based energy production is way more efficient. Every single one of our ancestors did keto because their environment forced them into it. Once you achieve metabolic freedom and flexibility, your body can actually manufacture glucose from the fat and from protein.   [18:20] Is Omega-6 Bad For You?   Omega-6 isn’t bad for you; processed omega-6 is bad for you. Omega-6 has the same oxygen-binding capacity as hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is also intimately bound to the cell membrane; so, they work well together. After people take the proper amount of omega-6, they feel better. Plus, they will be able to feel it fast.   [21:10] The Issue With Fish Oil   Fish oil is high in EPA and DHA. They're what we call unsaturated are much more unstable. Not only is fish oil too unstable for us, it's not really needed in very large quantities. As it turns out, the brain only uses about seven and a half milligrams per day of EPA and DHA. People on a high dose of fish oil will have a problem with nose bleeds – it’s an obvious example of fluidity. If you overload yourself with fish oil, the mitochondria is only half as efficient as it should be.   [34:55] Is Eating Fish Bad Too? You can certainly eat fish. When you cook it, you're destroying the fats anyways. It's the deepwater fish that are higher in EPA and DHA. Fish have a lot of good nutrition in it unless it's been contaminated with heavy metals and stuff. In Japan, where they eat mostly raw fish, they do have higher rates of hemorrhagic strokes. Fish that have fewer heavy metals are ones with a fast turnover like sardines. Tuna is a bad one because tuna will eat a lot of other fish and is lower on the food chain.   [39:45] About Pure Form   Pure Form Omega® Natural is an organic, plant-based, fish-free, cold-pressed, source of omega-6 and omega-3 essential fatty acids. It has been processed in a way that retains all the functions of the fat. It is a proprietary formulation made up of primrose oil, sunflower seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, and organic extra virgin coconut oil.

Just another reason to love Pure Form Omega®. However, most people will feel a little tired the next day because alcohol disturbs your sleep pattern. Luckily, you won't have the headache and all the other stuff that accompanies those hangovers.   AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode: Check out Pure Life Science: https://purelifescience.com/ (Use code Ben4 for the bottles and Ben3 for the liquids).
