You're about to receive responsible, life changing information on health and nutrition. You'll hear from Invite professionals who are leaders in targeted and anti aging nutrition. Get ready for tomorrow's nutritional science today right here, right now, Happy
Saturday. Welcome to another edition of Invite Health Radio. I'll be your host. Most of you know me. My name is Jerry Hicky. I'm a pharmacist who specializes in nutrition. It's always a pleasure to be here. By the way, it's always a pleasure to be hosting this program. I share this airwave with doctor Mandy Williams, so we do every other Saturday. In
any event, I'm here for Invite Health. I find myself checking my cell phone repeatedly every day to check the air quality, because it really matters. Bad air. Bad air days have become commonplace because of these wildfires up in Canada, and that air comes in the currents down here. I mean, they've been having terrible air quality over in the Midwest, in places like Detroit, terrible air quality from the fires, and we've been getting it too.
Recently, my wife and I went on a vacation and one of the islands in Lake Champlaine up in Vermont, North Hero the air quality was terrible, terrible. Only one day we went out kayaking. We didn't do any hiking. We actually came home early. Oh what a bad experience. And not their fault. I mean, they can't help the air coming down from Canada, but we had a bad experience. So it's important to protect yourself as
much as you can from bad air days. So they look at the air quality and frequently in New York it's been seventy five and frequently it's been over one hundred. And you know, that's dangerous for people with health conditions like heart disease, or kidney disease, or lung disease, is asthma, things like that, or diabetics. Not good for them because many of these people are already inflamed or at risk of things like a stroke and heart attack.
You don't want to add to that, and the bad air adds to that. So the bad air, for instance, I'll give you a quick study. It's the medical University of Vienna, and they looked into bad air and they said, hey, this stuff inflames your heart, and inflames your lungs, and inflames your brain, It inflames your kidneys. It just inflames the whole body. Bad air, bad air, poor air quality, which is common in cities and in industrial areas, as responsible for millions of additional deaths
each year. But lately here in New York, we don't really get bad air here. I mean it's not great, but lately it's been bad. And you get pollutants such as nitrous oxide and sulfur dioxide, and these very quickly. By the way, you're not just breathing these in through your nose and mouth. They actually get into your body through your eyes. A lot of things get into the body through your eyes through the tan ducts. Things such as allergens get in through the eyes. So these inflame your eyes right
away, and they flame your nose right away. So you find yourself, you know what a stuff nose and maybe snoring at night when you normally don't. It definitely inflames you long and these particles they get into your your heart and they're inflaming your heart I mean, it's not bad, and they do this quickly. They inflame your brain. And we're talking about short term exposure here. Of course, long term exposure is rather deadly. Like if you're
in a city we used to call Bombay but now it's called Mumbay. If you're in a city like that, or pie Jing where they have terrible air all the time, it's very dangerous. It increases the risk of strong caught attack, Alzheimer's, fatty liver disease, and liver failure, just a lot of terrible things Alzheimer's. So what happens. You get these fine particulate matter in the fire, in the air you're breathing in from the fire, and
these are like really tiny. They're like thirty times smaller than the diameter of a human hair. So you can't see these things. And the wildfires from Canada are sending these things, the toxic smoke down to us, and this very quickly in flames and damages the immune system. So that's not good if you're fighting cancer or if you're fighting an infection. They damage your heart and inflame your heart. You could get plaque in the heart, you know,
stiffening of the arteries in the heart, which is dangerous. You get the calcified plaque in the heart, they inflame your lungs and this actually, believe it or not. Even this short term exposure to the bad air can trigger a stroke. A piece of plaque and that's in the arteries of the heart can break off from gold of brain or contrigger, a blood clot or contrigger, a heart attack if it's prolonged like it's been. You know, if
the fire was three or four days, that's bad enough. But these fires have been going on since May, so this is long term exposure to really bad air. This cannot just cause damage to the heart and affect delivering the kidneys and the brain and the eyes, et cetera, the lungs, but it can lead to a heart attack. It can lead to a stroke. It can lead to atrofibrillation, this horrible rhythmi of the heart. That's the second most common cause of a stroke. It can lead to heart failure.
So are there supplements that protect you well? First of all, I know you might feel that you look silly, but wearing a mask outside those N sixty five masks will help with the bad air. That's the first thing. There were a couple of days in New York that was so bad that when I went out, I wore a mask and I was surprised. I went into I had to go to a home depot. So you got all those tough guys at home deepot that build houses, and all a lot of them
were wearing masks. We had like the worst dair in the world on that day. But one thing that will help protect you. Oh and the good news, we're still having our fourth of July sale, So any of the things are going to talk about. Now you're getting at half price. You get it at half price, and if we ship it to you most people get shipments. If it's thirty five dollars or more, we paid a shipping, so that's a big deal. We cover a shipping. We're giving you
a half price, plus you get those bonus points. That's kind of like invite cash. It's like invite money that in a later purchase you can apply it to the cost of the product. They take it right off the coast of the product, so you're getting more than fifty percent off right now. You're get them more like fifty six percent fifty seven percent. So what supplements will help protect you from bed air. Well. First of all, make
sure you're eating high antioxidant foods. Antioxtants are really important because when you breathe in the fire smoke, the smoke from all these fires. Yeah, this used to just to me be a problem for people in like Colorado and California, but now it's a problem up here in the Northeast and in the Midwest, and even down in Pennsylvania. My mother lives in Pennsylvania. She's had worse here than we've had in New York. She lives over in Mannheim pin
Dutch Country near Lancaster. She's had worse it than us. So it's all around the bed air in New England, New York, the Tri State area, Pennsylvania, over in the Midwest. It's all over the place that's been here. So there's a lot of people suffering for this. It's a lot more dangerous than you give it credit for. It's a lot more dangerous than you think it is. So eat high antioxidant foods because the antioxidants protect you
from the inflammation generated by these toxins in the smoke. The problem with the toxins and the smokers, they irritate and trigger inflammation, which can be deadly for the brain and the heart and all your other organs and tissues. This is not a joke. This is real. Get there's plenty of studies on this, real studies from high quality academic research institutions. So eat high antioxyant foods like an apple and orange, blueberries, kale and spinach and broccoli.
Foods like that are loaded with antioxidants dy'll help protect you. Drink green tea. Try to avoid smoking right now in alcohol because it's just going to make it worse. As far as supplements, a great supplement to start with is rest virtual. Rest Virtual. I take it every day because it's really good for the brain, and it's also good for your blood sugar. And I'm an older guy where blood sugar could become a problem and where you get diminished
blood supply to the brain. So I'm already making rest virtual. I take two hundred milligrams once a day with food and the rest Virtual is a tiny, tiny, tiny molecule and it gets into the tissues of your lung, the cells of your lung, and it protects them from the stuff and in the smoke from the fires. In Canada, it protect you from that airborne
pollution that's subtoxic. It's really toxic. It's supertoxic. So people who live in in places with persistent bad air, they're much more likely to have a stroke or a heart attack, or liver failure or kidney failure, lung diseases, autoimmune diseases, Alzheimer's disease, they're much more likely. And I have a short of life span. So we're getting our doses at this bad air. Now we really have to we really have to do something about it.
So for probably the first half of this showing to talk about the bad air we're we're experiencing because it's not going away. It's been very persistent. They're not getting big rainstorms up in Canada, so the fires are not being put out, and there's scores and scores of these fires. There's loads of these fires roll over Canada right now, just burning away. At all those billions of trees up there, that's a tinder box up there. So it's not
a good time to go north, right nolphification go south. In any event, rest very tral has good protective benefits for your brain. That's one place where this inhaled pollution damages you in your brain. It inflames your brain. And of course inflammation of the brain contributes to anxiety and depression and insomnia, but it contributes to memory loss, and it contributes to confusion, and it
also contributes to Alzheimer's. So the rest vertral, first of all, it gets into the brain, helps protect it from inflammation, and it helps resource circulation to the brain. And that's good because that helps the brain get rid of toxins. So that's a good thing. You want toxins to come out of your brain. You don't want them sitting in your brain. But also at a resveratrol, it's been shown to aid detoxification of the brain, something
called a glimphatic system to get rid of toxins in the brain. So rest virtual is good for that. So the rest virtual is great for your lungs. I mean, the first place to pollution is damaging you besides your nose and your eyes and your throat is your lungs. These tiny particles, and rest virtual is a great anti inflammatory in the lungs. There's been a bunch of studies showing that people who do a rest virtual have better lung function.
It helps protect them from cigarette smoke and pollution, and it helps protect the lung tissues, so that's good. But also it helps reduce inflammation and the lightning of your heart. Things that can really damage the heart, like when viruses hit you and affect your heart, or when you get a really bad viral infection and it affects your heart or your lungs. It's stimulating something called
into lucan six, and this really does a job on you. And to look at literally shakes up the plaque in your heart and makes it break off and good close the storical heart attack. So the rest ritual inhibits into looking six and your lungs and then your heart. So that's really good. We have to go to a break right now. You want to do our restritual because it is bad air. We're having bad air days all the time. I had my fingers crossed July fourth, I had a big party for me.
I had fourteen people here, all these good buddies of mine and their wives, some of my wife's friends. And I had my fingers crossed. You know, is it going to be a bad air day? And fortunately, fourth of July the air was okay out here in Long Island, so we were able to stay outside of all day. I didn't off. Fourteen
people packed into my house, so we had a good time. But like the next day, when I got up on Wednesday morning, the air was bad again, and then it got a little better throughout the day, you know. So it's been like that, like you wake up, the air's bad, it gets a little better, and it gets bad again, or
you wake up and it's bad old day. I mean to rest virtual, Get on to two hundred milligram rest virtual once or twice a day with food to protect yourself right now from this pollution, because this pollution is seriously bad. It's seriously nasty, it's seriously dangerous. Okay, we have to go to a break. We're having our fourth or July sale. Anything you buy, you get, Yeah, it's a deal. You get two bottles, you get fifty percent off, and for most of you it's going to be

Radio. Thanks for joining me on this Saturday morning. So the first thing to protect you from this bad air that's coming down from Canada from all these wildfires is because there's a lot of bad stuff in that air for you, your body, and it can hurt you really quickly, and it can hurt you very seriously. It could trigger a stroke or a heart attack, and a lot of people. So even if you're healthy, it doesn't matter. You could be totally healthy, You could be a thirty year old athlete eating
good food. This air will still hurt you. It doesn't matter if you're if you're in poor health. It doesn't matter if you're in good health. Of course, it's worse for you if you're already in bad health, if you already have a bad condition like diabetes or heart disease or autoimmune diseases. But even a healthy person who's eating right and exercising, it's even dangerous for
them. It doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman. Doesn't matter if you're a child, or you're in your thirties, or your middle aged, or you're elderly. It doesn't matter. It's bad for everybody. So the first thing, rest virtual, Get on rest virtual. Everybody listening to me right now, This is good data, good info. I know what I'm talking about. Eat your high quality foods that are loaded with antioxidants, like your kale and your broccoli and your spinach, and what else would be
good? A dark chocolate could be okay, depending on the company. You know, some of the companies aren't that good. But you know, like our coco would be good. Our coco would be good. It reduces inflammation and your artery walls, and it's good for the brain. But blueberry, organic blueberries, apples, high quality apples, those are great foods right now. Cups of green teeth throughout the day, two or three cups of green tea a day, those things will really help protect you. And take the
rest virtual. I'm telling you, I know what I'm talking about. Take the rest virtual to help protect your brain and your heart, and your lungs and your bankers and your kidneys. A multivitamin. You have to have a multi vitamin right now. The bee vitamins protect your immune system from the bed
air, from the poor air quality. The bee vitamins help prevent your immune system from going haywire and damaging you, but allows the immune system to still function to help you fight off cancer cells and viruses and bacterial infections, etc. So you need a multi vitamin. Plus. A multivitamin is absolutely necessary for getting rid of toxins in your blood and in your liver and in your kidneys. The zinc, the selenium, the riboflavor, de niacin, all
of the defolate. All of these things are necessary to break down chemicals, the chemicals you're breathing in from the bad air, from the fires, and getting rid of them when you poop or when you urinate, that's where they go. That's where you are. You don't want them in you. You want to get rid of them. In your toilable that's where you want to get rid of them. Otherwise they stay in your blood and they get deposited in your lungs, your brain, your heart. I mean just bad,
really bad. You want to get rid of them. And our multivitamin especially is good for detoxification because we have the activated form of B twelve in air methical ballamin to help the detoxification process phase one detox for the kidneys, and because we have the activated folate methyl tetra hydrofolate that helps lower the risk of mutations and your genes that lead to cancer, but that also helps break down chemicals to get rid of them. When you urinate, you need de folate.
You need to be twelve you need deniacin, you need to flavor, you need the selenium, you need to vitamin E, natural vitamin nut, synthetic, you need to vitamin see all those things that necessary for deliver and the kidneys to turn off chemicals, break them down and get rid of them. So these are really important right now with the bad air, and if you live in a place on top of that that has air pollution like parts of the Bronx near I ninety five, parts along Island and Queens etc.
Where there's not good air to begin with. This air coming from Canada only makes it worse. So you really have to protect yourself. So a great multi vitamin like the invite any to invite multis in a box will really help protect you. And the rest virtual will help protect you biour Kirkumen five locks and would help protect you because these little things that you're inhaling. You can't see these things obviously, but there's enough of them out there to darken the
sky. Okay, can you imagine that you can't see the things from a forest fire that can trigger structure and heart attacks at alzheimer isn't etc. But yet there's so much of it and the air that the air frequently recently looks terrible. The air quality looks kind of like brownish and overcast from the smoke from the fires. I mean, that's bad. That's bad news. This is serious, Okay, this is as serious as a heart attack. This
is very important. So the bio Kirkumen five locks and are powerful anti inflammatories. And you're colding and your heart and your pancreas and your liver and your muscles and your brain very important. So they work well with resveratrol to protect you from the inflammation caused by inhaling the smoke from the forest fires up in Canada. I want to keep on repeating that because you know, people tune
in and tune out. You know, somebody gets in equinity put on the radio and hear me talking about this, and they're not going to know what I'm talking about. But right now, it is very bad air pollution. And this is this is serious, This is dangerous. So the biocurcumind fiblocks that we normally use for muscle pain or back pain, you know, if you have something wrong with your back, for psiotica pain, for tendonitis like
golfer zelbo or tennis elbow. So we're using it instead of ibuprofen because ibuprofen contrigguer a heart attack and heart failure, and it's bad for your kidneys, so a lot of people are and it could cause bleeding ulcers, so a
lot of people don't want to take it beproven. Ibuprofen raises your blood pressure, so a lot of people don't want to take it buprofen because they're smart and they know what They know that it's bad for you, so they're taking things like biocurcumin, fiblocks and because it's very effective for all kinds of pain, even headaches like cluster headaches, or migraines and migraine ores. But it's
good for inflammation in the spine if you have back pain. It's good for inflammation in the knee, like if you have arthritic knees or an authritic hip. It's good for tendonitis like golfer's elbow or tennis elbow, or plant our
fashion itis under your heel. It's good for all that. It's good for nerve pain, so a lot of you are taking it anyway, take a little more right now because the biocrecumen five locks and will prevent the things in the smoke from inflaming and damaging and killing your brain cells, which is it's not a joke, this is real. Now, the last supplement I'm going to tell you, it's called NAC, which stands for anacetal cysteine. Anacetal
system is actually like a miracle nutrient. It really is. I don't talk about it frequently because there's too much to say about it. I mean, it's ridiculous. I usually write about it and do a podcast about it because there's so much to say about it. NAC creates the mother of all antioxidants in the human body that makes you live longer, that protects you from things like smoke from a fire because it creates something in your lungs and in your
heart called glutathione. Glutothione will protect your lungs, in your heart and your circulation from the smoke and the four As fires that's coming down from Canada. But it will also aid the ability of the liver to break down the chemicals and the fire smoke and get rid of them. And it's also very protective for your kidneys and your liver. So NAC right now, first of all, let me tell you something. When you take NAC, your brain feels great. If you take one NAC NAC and as a nancy, as an
apple season cat, NAC NAC. Okay, if you take one and it, don't call it NACK when your order, call it NAC because nobody will know what you're talking about. NAC. You take one a day with your breakfast, your brain's going to feel terrific. Your brain will feel terriffic. So the NAC will strongly help protect lung inflammation. It will work well with the rest rotual to prevent lung inflammation. NAC will work great with the bio
Kirkumen five blocks and to prevent brain inflammation. It will also help break down the chemicals, so it'll help the multi vitamin break down toemicals because the multi vitamins do what we call phase one detoxification and the NAC does what we call phase two detoxification. So it really helps you turn off the chemicals and the smoke and the pollution and get rid of it and your urine and feces, especially in your feces, So the multivitamin really is helping you get rid of
toxins through your urine. The NAC helps you get rid of detoxins through your liver and feces. So this isn't really important. This is really important stuff right now. It's super important. People want more. People want more gluto thione live longer. Species with more gluto thyane live longer. So in other words, a horse wouldn't have more glutothione than a dog or a cat, and a cat would have more glutothione than like a mouse or rattic guinea pick.
The longer a species lives or potentially can live, the more glutothione they need to protect themselves from the environment things like pollution and toxins and help them detoxfin and get rid of everything that's bad for them. And the amount of glutothione and a person can vary by fifty percent, So some of us are better at protecting ourselves from the smoke coming down from the fires from Canada than
others because they have more glutothione naturally. So even it up. Because you don't know how much gluethon you have, You're not going for these crazy tests. I tell you how much glutothon you have mostly anyway, So take the NAC once or twice a day with food as going to really help protect you from these forest fires. So this is fantastic advice. Okay, I'm going to go to a break a little bit early so to protect you from the
smoke from the forest fires. Because it could cause a stroke, it can contribute to alz Harmer's, it could cause a heart attack, it could gam up your you'll liver. I mean, it's it's terrible. It can inflame your already inflamed body if you have diabetes or arthritis, aroutoimmune diseases, etc. Or heart disease. So the first thing was rest veratrol. The second thing was our multi vitamin like the Invite Core Multi or the Invite for Men,
Invite for women. To invite any of the Invite multis in a box. We help protect you from the forest fire smoke buyer Kirkman five locks and nac and eat good diets and drinking green tea and that will really help protect you. Okay, let's go to a break Chairry Hickey Invite Health. We're having our fourth of July sale.

We use ingredients UOD in human clinical trials. How to publish in medical journals. I mean, we do it the right thing for you. When we make these products. We know the dosage, we know how safe are we know that they work. I mean, this is important. We notice safe. So I have I don't have a lot of friends.
I have a lot of good friends. Okay, so I don't know a million people. I don't choose to know a million people. But I have a lot of very dear, very close friends where we have great relationships. We could talk to each other. I mean, you know, and my friends typically range an age between the age of sixty five to seventy. I'm seventy, so my friends typically are sixty five to seventy. So I'm kind
of like the oldest one in the group. Well, there is a couple of exceptions, and my friends are always telling me things about their health, because I mean, once you hit like sixty five to seventy, something's wrong with your knee, or you know, you have an autoimmune disease, or you have to go for a heart by pay. Yeah, there's something. There's always something right. So one of my friends on a July, he was out with me and we were cooking together, having a great time in
my backyard. We're laughing at up and he goes, you know, my hair. He goes, I got a haircut. Now I have a cow lick. I never had a cow lock before. So like the edge of his the edge of his hair looked like it was a wave, you know, like a you know, like a big wave. And he said to me, I never had a cow look before. And I said, oh, that's that's simple. That you're not making collagen anymore. And he goes, what's that. I go, well, one of the reasons why your
knee hurts is because because he's having a problem with his knee. He just had knee replacement on his left knee and now he needs knee replacement on his right knee. But he's not the kind of guy that will talk to me about nutrition. You know, he's not that kind of guy. Dear friend, very good friend. We go back. We used we used to coach football and soccer together when our kids were in grammar school. So, yeah,
I know this guy really well. Right, So I said, you know one of the reasons why your knees fell apart now and you didn't have that before, as you're not making as much collagen anymore. So he said, okay, tell me about And I said, I'll tell you about it. And like a quick two minute synopsis, I said, because you know everybody's hair and we're hanging a hand, and you know in two minutes somebody will be over here talking with us. So let me just say quickly.
You make collagen when you're young, and it makes your body. It's the second most common thing in a bite. This is what I'm telling There's water, then there's collagen, then there's everything else. So to collagen holds you to gather, it allows you to stand, it allows you to move becaus it's making your joints, it's making your skin, your hair, your nails, it's making your bones. It's it's making your ligaments and tendons. It's
part of your muscles. I mean, it makes you spine. I mean it makes you blood, vessel walls, make it makes so many different tissues. But once you stop growing, you make less and less collagen every year, and a certain point is a tipping point where you're just not making enough collagen for the body's needs, which is typically in your forties or fifties. So that's when the knees really get bounced around, right, because you can't
fix them anymore because you're not making the collagen. Where did Gluekolsman and Controit and go to roost and improve the knee health is within the collagen. So if you don't have collagen, it's very hard to help your knees stay healthy. So I said, the reason your hair is behaving differently and it looks thinner and it's hard to control, etc. Is because your hair is about seventy percent collagen, and right now you're making half as much as you used
to. You're so this makes the collagen your knees. This makes the organic matrix of your bones that the calcium attaches to. This makes the skin seventy percent a skin that the highaluronic acid gets embedded in to hold the moisture in your skin. So it's really really crucial to your health. I said, so get into collagen. I mean, with all of my friends when they talk to me about health, it seems that the number one thing I'm telling
them about is collagen. Because all of my friends are into sports. They're all into pickleball and tennis, golf, they're all into sports, cycling, a lot of them, you know, hiking, so you know, and these are all the guys and what I'm saying, and these are big guys. I mean the guy I'm talking to my good friend Alan on fourth of July. He's six foot two. He's a big guy. And I don't mean a slim he's big. He's a big, muscular guy. But his knees are killing him and his hair is changing on. I said, get
on the collagen. So today we have the super high quality collagen because you're not making it anymore. So your skin, it's easy to wrinkle your skin, it's easier for you to have joint pain, it's easier for you to have spiral pain. Your hair's going to look different, your nails aren't growing. These are all signs that you need collagen. And we have a super clean collagen. Most of the collagen coming into America comes from China and it's
not very good. There's impurities, and it's very low in the collagen peptides. Our collegen is super rich in collagen peptides and it's from a French Italian company. It's called pep ten and it's been used in human clinical trials. Like when University of Rochester looked at our collegen, they said, hey, this stuff. It helps bones in different ways. It makes the bones thicker and more solid and more resistant to getting damaged. You need to collagen is
thirty six percent of a bone. But they also did studies on the joint and they said, hey, this stuff has taken away joint pain and is helping prevent the joint from getting worse. There's been similar studies at these at Penn State University in Happy Valley, Pennsylvania. There's been similar studies at MIT, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The stuff is real. It's really good for your bones. It's the starting point that the calcium at touches too.
It's really good for your joints. That's what everything else inserts it too, to make your joints work and flexible and lacking pain. It's really good for your spine. You'll love it. Okay, get into collagen if you're older, if you're over fifty, you want to be into collagen. You want to look better because your hair, skin and nails will be better. But internally it's fixing you for your your back and your bones and your joints.
It's fixing you internally. When I exercise, which is frequently, um, I do all kinds of exercises. I kayak, I walk, I hike, I ride my bike, I lift weights, I do all garden and hum, I do push ups, I do all different things I always do by collagen. After that, after I exercise right away as soon as I kind of do a scoop of collagen a powder, and then I do a scoop of something called flex HX because flex HX is much more for your your
your your your connective tissue. The connective tissue is the ligaments and tendons. De ligaments and tendons hold together your muscles and your bones and your joints. It connects them all so you can walk, so you can stand upright. The problem is just like we're not making the collagen peptides anymore, and you need collagen. We're not making the peptides for your ligaments and tendons anymore.
Now, don't get me wrong. Collagen itself will help a little bit with ligaments and tendons, it will, but flex HX is much more specific for it. So after I exercise, I'm taking the scoop of the flex HX for my ligaments and tendons. Because I don't want ten a sebo. I don't want calfer zebo. I don't want a problem with my ankle. I don't want a problem behind any with my interior cruciate ligaments. I don't want any of those things. I don't want a problem with my fingers. It
looks like trigger figure, it looks like your fingers pulling your trigger. I don't want plant our fetcie to somebody here. So I take a scoop of the flex HX, scoop of to college XHA, and then I add something else. I add because they're small, they're tiny scoops. I add two scoops of the active X. Active X feeds my muscles. When you get older, like me, you'll lose muscle. It's a process called sarcopenia. But you're not just losing muscle, you're losing strength. Because your muscle size
doesn't accurately predict how much strength you have. Some people can have smaller muscles and more strength other because people can have bigger muscles and less strength. I don't have huge muscles, but I have a lot of strength. So I take the active HX two little scoops. I mix it in with a scoop of to Flex HX and a scoop of the college XHA to rebuild my body. It's this is a rebuilding formula for people over fifty. It'll keep you
going. It'll keep you like your joints soiled so you don't get joint pain. It'll it'll feed you bones, it'll feed your skin, in hair and nails so you look good too. You'll feel good and you'll look good. But it's also because I'm in the active HX, it's really feeding by muscles. It's beta hydroxy beta methyl beuty rate. That's what's in the active HX. When you eat protein, they say, eat protein fea muscles right,
well, I'm you're made out of protein, but that's another story. You eat the protein after you exercise for your muscles, but what the protein is really converting into for your muscles as beta hydroxy beta methyl beut rate and our beta hydroxy beta methyl beuty rate. We call it active HX because it's really
important for people who are physically active. It feedure muscles directly feed you muscles for greater strength, for greater flexibility, for better looking muscles, because it's nice to look good in your T shirt right or you pair of shorts. And also you recover better, more completely and faster from your last bat of exercise. So every time I exercise, which is all the time, I'm basically I'm exercising seven days a week. But you know you don't have to
do that. Five six days a week is good. But I just like to exercise, so I'm always doing something. I do hours and hours and hours of exercise. I love the exercise. So in any event, I do a scoop it to college, I do a scoopa to flex Chex, and I do two tiny scoops because they're tiny of the active HX, and I'm feeding my whole body and when you're older, you need to do this
because you need to feed your ligaments attendance. Otherwise you hurt them gardening or painting the house or moving a box, and then you can't play your pickleball, or you can't take a walk with your grandkid, or you can't take a walk with your dog, or you know, you can't garden. I mean, it's just you're in pain. And when you're older and you hurt a ligament or tendon, it takes forever to heal. It becomes chronic,
which means all the time. So I'm doing a flex ate check for the ligaments and tendance to colligen for everything else, and the active A checks from our muscles. Let me go to a break. It's a little early. We're having our sale. We've got great stuff on sale.

Okay, welcome back, Cherry Hicky for Invite Health. It's always an honor and a privilege to be here
speaking with you on these Saturday mornings. I spent a lot of time discussing to poor air quality that's been abundant sadly around here because of the forest fires. To wildfire is all over Canada. It's affecting so many tens of millions of Americans. And at wildfire is dangerous. It's dangerous. So the supplements I told you about and a wildfire rest veris raw. Definitely, get to two hundred milligrams. Take it once or twice a day with food buyer kirkhuman
five oxen definitely, like I take two once a day with dinner. A multi vitamin. You need a good multi to detoxify and NAC that's the secret weapon that really helps liver and kidneys break down the chemicals in the wildfire that you're inhaling. But that also helps shield you lungs. So this is important. It's important information. And then I said, of course, eat you good foods. You know you're you're broccoli and your spinach and your kale,
and and what else. Organic blueberries and apples and oranges. All these are loaded with antioxians that will help protect you. Carrots and tomato, sauce, all those things. Green tea, drinking green tea, all these things are very protective. Get a good green tea like our green tea, or a green tea that you could brew yourself. Don't get the green tea in the liquid because they're pretty stinky. The green tea and the soldas, there's very
little green tea in there. That's what I mean. I don't mean they're using bed green tea. I mean they're not giving you very much. So when you get those green tea soldas, you're not getting much green tea. It's not going to mean anything to you. Either brewed a green tea yourself, cups of green tea two three, four times a day, or take our green tea that because they're super concentrated. We have a capsule and drops. They're super concentrated, so we put plenty in there in high quality stuff.
It's organic green tea. Is that will help protect you from the toxins in the wildfire. The sec I tell the people who live in areas with pollution like pots of the Bronx and pots of Brooklyn, et cetera. Pots of Queens Manhattan. You live near Fifth Avenue of Manhattan, you're breathing in a lot of toxins from cars. The green tea house protect you from all that. So it's important info. Now, Uh, my wife's girlfriend,
um, she's constipated. I you do like I tell you, And she told me, I, y Jerry, you know I'm calling you up. She's a nurse. I'm constipated. And I said, well, take our probiotic. She said, well, I take a probatic. I said, yeah, but you're not taking hours. There's all different strains, and different strains do different things. So I made sure I gave you all the strains that are good for your digestion and your immune system. So let me explain
another. They change the names of these bacteria. They do that all the time, which is crazy. I don't know why they do it. But lacto Bacillus plantarum is now lacto planto Bacillus plantarum. But yeah, we'll still caught by the old name. We don't need to change it. They just did a forty two day randomized control of human clinical trial, which means some people got placebo, some people got the probiotic. It's in the journal Pharmaceutical
Research, which is a journal I read because it's a pharmacy journal. That's one hundred and sixty three. People were pretty severe constipation. They're pooping like once a week. That's not good if you pooped twice a week, that's okay, you could get by with that, but if you're only pooping once a week, that's not good at all. So they gave them this probiotic, and very quickly it improved their constipation. They were pooping more frequently,
but they were also pooping more completely. They felt like they completely discharged, so they're getting rid of all those toxins in the poop and when they inspected the stool, this is important. The probiotic improved the level of many good bacteria. See, some people criticize probiotic strains because they say, well, you've just taken one strain, and they don't know what they're talking about. Because when you take the correct strains of probiotic, they improve the populations of
many other good bacteria that do wonderful things for the human body. So I picked strains that bring along scores and scores of other bacteria that are also healthy for you. Healthy for women's brows, healthy for the ordinary tract, healthy for the immune system, healthy for the brain, healthy if you're controlling your blood sugar, healthy if you're controlling your appetite, healthy for pooping. So when you take our probiotic, You're going to get an increase in caprillic acid.
So what's that caprillic acid. Caprillic acid kills fungal infections and your digestive tract. You don't want a dangerous fungus in your digestive tract. So when you take our probiotic, it will increase the amatic caprilic acid in a digestive tract. This has been shown through human clinical trials. It also increases the level of beteric acid. So why is that important. Beuteric acid helps prevent colon cancer, and be a teric acid helps prevent intestinal infection, and be
a teric acid helps prevent other cancers. But be a teric acid also repairs the brain. So that's crazy. You're taking a good bacteria, you're creating be a teric acid and your colon which lowers the risk of colon cancer and rectal cancer and also pancreatic cancer. I might tell you. But on the other hand, some of it be a turic acid escapes into the blood stream, which is a natural thing. It's something you want, it's something you
desire, and that repairs the blood brain barrier. The blood brain barrier becomes leaky as you age, and it does exactly that. It's a barrier to protect your brain. So as it breaks down, it becomes fragile with age, bad things getting into the brain that you know, make it hard to remember, hard to focus, hard to sleep, hard to learn. When you take our probiotic and you eat some wholesome foods, the probiotic works of the fibers and the wholesome foods. Foods I really says, be a teroic
acid the colon to help prevent colon cancer. And some of that pia turca acid slips into the bloodstream and gets to the brain and repairs the blood brain barrier to keep toxins out of your brain. Well, when you know what you're talking about with the probiotic bacteria, it means a lot for your health because these same bacteria. If you have diarrhere, they make the stool normal and solid. If you have constipation, they help you get rid of constipation.
If you even a healthiest person, a healthy thirty five year old that goes to the gym and eats a good diet, even they can get gas panes and gassiness and a swollen tummy, a swollen stomach after eating a swollen abdomen, our probiatic will take care of that, get rid of the swelling and the gassiness, the bloating. It'll help you digest your food, it
will help with food sensitivities. It'll even help you with food allergies. But it also brings back the immune system and older people like me, which is super important because our immune system is what protects us from cancer. It's our primary army of cells that protectors from cancer. But also it protects for viruses and bacteria like the flu, like COVID nineteen, like all these things. And you know, I gotta tell you it's COVID nineteen. It really does
look like it escaped from a lab. You know, it really looks that way. I mean, that's terrible, but that's what it looks like. But in any event, let's get back to this. The immune system has to be strong to prevent infections that could damage the lungs or the brain or the heart, but it gets weak with age. We have the cells, but they're not working, like our polymorph nuclear leucacytes, which are our most common immune cells, they're not working. The natural killer cells, which are
bridge cells for the immune system. They're not working well. We have them, they're just not working. The probiotic bacteria, the strange in our probiatic have been clinically proven to bring back the immune system and people like over fifty, people over sixty, people over seventy, and so on and so forth. But also some of these cells protect you from cancer. Like we have
T cells that zero win on cancer cells, but they get fatigued. They probaly had a couple of T cells work better, more efficiently, more effectively. And your natural killer cells, these are primary first line of defense against cancer cells. And older people, we have natural kilos cells. They're just not working well. So it's easy to get cancer because a cancer cell can slip through the immune system and lodge somewhere and develop a tumor, and then
you're in trouble. When you take the probiotic, it brings back these natural killer cells and they're more capable of killing a cancer cell. You make cancer cells every day, but the immune system protects you from them. And of course when you inhale the smoke from the fires in Canada, you make more cancer cells potentially, So the probiotic gets the natural kilo cells functioning again.
Within a week. It does this, and the natural kilo sells can take out any maverick or errant cancer cell that's lurking or that's floating around in your bloodspreen. So there's a lot to these probiotics. Plus the probiotics control your appetite when you eat good foods. The probiotics break down the food and release chemical messengers that the brain detection says, Oh, you ate enough food, I'm going to shut off your hunger, so you can control your appetite.
If you lack good bacteria, you're always hungry and you're going to gain a lot of weight, which is not good for you back, and not good for your knees, and not good for your heart, and not good for your liver or your kidneys, or your pancreas or your brain. It's not good for you. When you do the probiotic, it helps you get your appetite under control. What you want you want to be healthy, you want to live a long, healthy life, So the probiotic helps you get that
under control again very quickly. So you're eating less because you're not snacking in between meals and you're not eating like a second dinner late at night. You know, a lot of people eat their dinner and then they keep on snacking all night long. They keep on picking, and they wind up literally eating enough calories as two dinners, two dinners worth of calories. So the probatic really helps get your appetite under control. So we have the probatic HX,
which are all purpose probatic for everybody, including children. So it's good for the immune system, it's good for digestion, it's good for helping you control your appetite. But then we have the probatic for women, which really helps restore the good bacteria to your urinary treact to help prevent urinary tract infections and
bladder infections. Restoring good bacteria to your vaginal tissue to help prevent yeast infections, the aginal yeast infections, vaginosis, and they get the good bacteria back into your breasts to get the toxins out of your breasts. There's a lot of bacteria living in your breasts. The bad ones can't protect the breasts, infect they inflame the breast. It's just the opposite. The good ones protect the breast and get chemicals out of the breast because there's chemicals in the air
you're breathing. There's chemicals in your food. Yeah, because you know all these chemical companies that make it a fortune of all these chemicals they're adding, they're give into the falls, et cetera, winds up in your food, even wild food like fish. You have these chemicals in there they're leasing into all the wild foods. So the probiotic and probiotic for women gets into the breast and helps make the breast environment healthier to get rid of toxins in the
breast, so the breasts are less likely to get irritated. There's irritation of the breast is one of the things that leads to breast cancer. Yet see, good bacteria back into the urinary tract, gets the good bacteria back into the pelvic region, the vaginal tissues. So you know, if you're a woman, you might want to tune up on that once in a while, especially if you have diabetes or heart disease, or you're just not eating well.
You need these bacteria back in these tissues. And then of course we have the probiotic that's more specific for weight law because there's the ingredients in there from artichoke and from the bergamot orange that trigger a little fat loss, and the probatics in it, I really do a good job of controlling your appetite.
So they're all on sale because everything from invits on sale. And don't forget about the fish shawls in the krill oil and right now, this is a terribly important point for you to eat fish, the good fish, you know, like the salmon and the flounder and stuff like that. Don't fry it, you bake it. But when you fry the fish, it's not as healthy, but because you change in the proteins and the facts in it.
But you want your fish shawls right now because help protect your brain and they'll help protect your heart from the pollution that's out there that's coming in from the smoke. Krill is my favorite because there's things in krill that are good for your memory that you don't get in fish shawls. Fish shawls protect the brain, but krill has additional ingredients in it that boost a memory on a
day to day basis. So you want to do your krill right now because that will help lower the risk is strokes and heart attacks because that will directly reduce inflammation in the lining of the blood vessels. Inside your heart, and you can't ask from more than that. They've shown that the fats in krill and the fats and fish oils, and if fats and eating good quality fish,
lower risk is sudden quatiac death. Any one of us can experience the kind of inflammation and damage to the heart that causes the heart to stop beating. Okay, the problem is, unless you're like in a hospital and there's some doctors right nearby or nurses right nearby, your heart probably will not start to beat again. And normally about three hundred and fifteen thousand Americans die each year in this way. Their heart stops beating and it doesn't restart. Only
about thirty five thousand of them will it start to beat again. So about three hundred and fifty thousand Americans each year the heart stops beating, only thirty five thousand it starts to to get FISHI wals help prevent that. So does krill will So we have all these good things, We have all this great advice. Get in touch wood invite because we're having to sell. You could find out about these things. How much do I take a day of krill? I take two a day with my breakfast but I eat a lot of
fish. If I didn't eat a lot of fish, I'd probably take three a day with my breakfast. Because it's good for your memory. The krill. It's great for your heart. It lowers there was a sudden caudiac death. It helps reduce inflammation on the heart, the kind of inflammation you can get from breathing. In the end, it's coming from Canada, from these wildfires, and I just want to keep on repeating that his dad is so really so key right now to our survival and our general health and ongoing good
health. So get in touch Wood, invite take advantage in his fourth of July's sail th ash for listening God bless have a great day. Summer is not just about fun in the sun. It's also a great time to get healthy. Focus on your wellness and your brain with our new memory multi vitamin.
