Today, we’re going to take a look at how salt can effectively get rid of bacteria, fungi, yeast, and mold in the body. Salt causes water to move out of the cell, eliminating these pathogens through dehydration. Salt thins mucus with this same mechanism. Salt removes water from the mucus, making it thinner so that it can be more easily expelled from the body. To eliminate mucus using salt, dissolve a teaspoon of sea salt (not table salt) in a glass of water. Drink or gargle the salt water. This e...

In this podcast, we’re going to look at the causes of nocturia and the best natural solutions. Nocturia is the urge to urinate at night when you should be sleeping, and it can interfere with your ability to get a good night’s sleep. Nocturia is usually said to be caused by a bladder infection, a kidney infection, prostate issues, or aging. People with nocturia are not typically urinating a full bladder of urine. This means there must be an issue with the sensors in the bladder or the valve of th...

Today, we’re going to take a look at vitamin B1, also known as thiamine. Vitamin B1 is intimately involved with the function of the mitochondria, so if you’re deficient, low energy is one of the first symptoms. The more carbs and sugar you consume, the more B1 you need. This is because vitamin B1 is necessary to burn glucose. Even on a ketogenic diet, you'll still burn glucose for certain functions of the body. Vitamin B1 is water soluble, so it isn't stored in the body for long periods....

Today, I’m going to tell you how you can easily get rid of puffy eyes. Puffy eyes are also referred to as eye bags or periorbital edema. Puffy eyes are often treated medically with steroids, antihistamines, and other medications. Cucumbers and undereye patches can provide temporary relief but do not solve the problem. High levels of sodium can cause puffy eyes, and the kidneys are often involved, but the root cause of puffy eyes is too much sugar in the bloodstream. When you have too much sugar ...

Years of consuming cereal can have serious impacts on your health. Cereal contains hidden sugar, starch, and carbohydrates. Certain starches and carbohydrates can affect your blood sugar levels even more than sugar can. Many people think cereal is healthy because it contains whole grains. However, sugar, combined with protein in whole grains, can lead to...

Metabolic flexibility is a term used to describe how smoothly and efficiently your cells can adapt to utilize and burn fuel like fat, ketones, or glucose. When you’re metabolically inflexible, this transition is very dysfunctional. Your ability to burn fat in a fasting state will be very difficult. If you can’t lose weight when fasting or exercising, th...

Belly fat or visceral fat is fat that is outside of the fat cells—it’s in the organs, especially the liver. If you have belly fat, you have a fatty liver. Insulin resistance is what leads to fat on the liver to begin with. Insulin is a fat-storing hormone, and it prevents weight loss. Cortisol is another hormone that can make it difficult to lo...

In this podcast, we’re going to take a look at a simple natural solution for cataracts. Cataracts can be described as cloudiness or opaqueness of the lens of the eye. They are the number one cause of blindness and are typically treated with surgery. Too much oxidative stress can lead to cataracts. Oxidative stress occurs when there’s too much oxidation in the body and not enough antioxidants. Too much oxidation in the eye mainly stems from sugar consumption. If you have too much sugar in your bl...

Let’s talk about the interesting relationship between vitamin D and cortisol. When you’re under chronic stress, vitamin D is less absorbed in your gut. The building block for vitamin D is the same building block for cortisol. That building block is cholesterol. But, when you go through stress, your cholesterol is used to build more cortisol than vitamin D. However, you need plenty of vitamin D when you go through stress. Many people aren’t getting the vitamin D they need. The more stress someone...

Today, we’re going to talk about the carbohydrate that’s more dangerous than sugar: maltodextrin. Of all the ultra-processed food ingredients, I consider this one the worst. Maltodextrin is GMO, refined, and highly processed. It can lead to belly fat, diabetes, and gut inflammation, yet it’s considered safe. Even though maltodextrin is not a sugar and it’s not sweet, it behaves like sugar in the body. It’s also higher than sugar on the glycemic index. Maltodextrin is an ingredient in many differ...

Let’s talk about the potential benefits of taking vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 at the same time. Vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 work closely together. Vitamin D3 supports the absorption of calcium in the small intestines. Vitamin K2 takes calcium from the blood and transports it to the bones and teeth. It also activates a protein that keeps calcium out of the arteries, joints, and other areas of the body where it shouldn’t be. Vitamin K2 has many additional potential benefits, from supporting healthy bl...

Today, I want to cover the most inflammatory food in the world. There is a lot of debate over what the most inflammatory food is. Some people say meat, while others say it's the fiber in plants. Some people do well consuming fiber, and others don’t. Why? Humans can’t digest fiber. Your microbes are what break down fiber by fermenting it. While fiber is anti-inflammatory, unfermented fiber is inflammatory. If you don’t have enough of the right microbes in your gut, you could have more of an i...

However, I think you’ll notice a shrinkage in the skin tag or wart each time you apply this natural remedy. Skin tags and warts are growths on the skin that are essentially benign tumors. Benign tumors don’t spread and aren’t cancerous. Skin tags and warts are associated with high levels of estrogen, high insulin levels, and HPV. 95% of the population has HPV. Natural killer ce...

Every year, a few times a year, I have a bad reaction to poison ivy. This time, it has affected my eye. Each time I was exposed and had a bad reaction, I was given prednisone. It got to the point where, after I was exposed, the effects of the poison ivy wouldn’t go away after using prednisone. People typically take prednisone for its anti-inflammatory or immune suppressant effects. But prednisone has side effects. Prednisone is a synthetic version of cortisol. Cortisol has benefits. It’s a hormo...

Today, I want to introduce you to something called heart rate variability (HRV). HRV is a measurement of the variations between the heartbeats. There are different time distances between your heartbeats. The more varied the timing is between the heartbeats, the healthier a person is, and the higher the HRV is. The less varied the timing is, the less healthy the person is, and the lower the HRV is. HRV measures the autonomic nervous system. It has been well-researched and can help a person unders...
