1:14 Why is hypertension associated with severe COVID-19 symptoms?
2:38 What causes high blood pressure?
3:17 Putting the pieces of the puzzle together

In this video, I want to talk to you about hypertension and the coronavirus. In a recent survey, 88% of people with COVID-19 had more than one illness. After being put on a ventilator, the mortality rate jumps up to 80%. These are not promising statistics.

Here’s the question: why is high blood pressure the primary driver of severe COVID-19 symptoms? According to one study, 69.1% of people with coronavirus also had high blood pressure. Another study showed that 53% of people coronavirus patients have HBP—it’s always at the top of the list.

It has to do with the ACE2 receptors. ACE2 receptors are on the outside part of the cells—they are like the doors which COVID-19 can get into a cell.

Those who have high blood pressure often take ACE inhibitors. ACE inhibitors create a situation where more of these ACE2 cells or “doors” are created, which allows for more severe COVID-19 infection.

Keep in mind that I am NOT recommending that you come off of your medication.

To reduce your risk of COVID-19, it’s important to get your blood pressure under control. The question is, what causes high blood pressure?

90% of high blood pressure cases are considered “essential” hypertension. What this really means is that the cause is “unknown.” However, the problem might actually be a vitamin D deficiency. Numerous studies have shown that, when you take vitamin D, your blood pressure levels stabilize.

Following this reasoning, it’s not far off to consider that vitamin D deficiency could be the leading cause of coronavirus complications.

0:30 Should you do a sugar detox? 
0:55 What happens when you fall off the wagon
2:14 Switching fuel sources 
2:28 What to do to get back into ketosis 

Today we’re going to talk about what to do if you stopped doing keto and intermittent fasting during quarantine and how to get back on track. 

Along with social distancing, you may also want to try carb distancing. Some people think that to get back on keto, they should do a sugar detox. But, there’s really no such thing as sugar detoxification. 

When you stop doing keto and intermittent fasting, the brain starts using glucose as fuel again. But, now you want to get back on track, and you stop consuming carbs and sugar again. Your brain doesn’t have any stored sugar though, so you’re going to feel cognitive changes, such as:

• Sugar cravings 
• Stress
• Depression
• Anxiety 
• Irritability 
• Fatigue 

These are not symptoms of sugar detoxification. They are symptoms of lacking fuel. Changing over your fuel system from glucose to fat takes some time. The brain prefers ketones over sugar. This means that you want to get into ketosis as fast as possible. 

Things that can help get you back in ketosis fast:

1. MCT oil 
2. Consume protein 
3. Lower your carbs 
4. Increase foods high in potassium (vegetables)

0:32 The importance of vitamin D
0:56 Who’s most at risk for vitamin D deficiency?
1:30 How vitamin D affects the immune system
3:50 Causes of vitamin D deficiency

In this video, I want to talk to you about vitamin D deficiency—the ignored pandemic. There are over 1 billion people in the world who struggle with vitamin D deficiency or vitamin D insufficiency.

Vitamin D is vital to over 200 biochemical reactions. In fact, 5% of the genome is influenced by vitamin D.

China, India, South America, and the Middle East are at the highest risk of vitamin D deficiency. Pregnant or breastfeeding women are also at a high risk of vitamin D deficiency.

What happens when you are vitamin D deficient?
• T-helper cells have a difficult time working
• T-regulatory cells cannot function properly
• Iron is inhibited in many cells
• Immune cells themselves require vitamin D support
• Macrophages cannot function with vitamin D

Vitamin D is essential for preventing and recovering from illness and disease. It plays a significant roll in cardiovascular health, blood pressure levels, diabetes prevention, and so much more.

If you have family members who have health problems, it’s important to get them on vitamin D—especially with COVID-19.

The best source of vitamin D is sunlight. Keep in mind that, as you get older, the body has a difficult time absorbing sunlight and creating vitamin D naturally. Clothing, living far from the equator, pollution, dark skin color, skin health, sunblock, bad genetics, infections, and malabsorption problems can all affect the amount of vitamin D you can absorb.

Overview of Healthy Ketogenic Diet and Intermittent Fasting:

0:21 Low blood sugar
0:44 Hypoglycemia symptoms
0:54 My experience with hypoglycemia
1:05 Protein as fuel for the body
1:59 Hypoglycemia and carbs
2:12 Will consuming protein raise insulin?
3:04 What you can do for hypoglycemia

In this video, we’re going to talk about protein and hypoglycemia, and I’m going to cover how protein affects blood sugar.

With hypoglycemia, what happens, is when the blood sugar goes up, insulin pushes it down, leaving you with low blood sugar. People with low blood sugar typically have a higher amount of insulin pushing blood sugar down, and there are no counter hormones to push the blood sugar back up.

Hypoglycemia symptoms:

• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Irritableness
• Grouchiness
• Dry eyes
• Depression

Some people have this idea that the fuel that the body uses is either glucose, fat, or ketones. But, protein can be used as fuel too. Protein can be converted into glucose through a process called gluconeogenesis. Protein can act as a fuel in addition to replacing the protein in your body. This is why when you consume protein when you have low blood sugar, you start feeling better.

If you have hypoglycemia and you were to consume carbohydrates, you might feel better for a minute, but then the insulin will kick the blood sugar back down. When you consume protein, you will stimulate some insulin, but at the same time, you will stimulate glucagon. Glucagon is the opposing hormone to insulin. Glucagon will raise the blood sugar, and insulin will lower it, creating a leveling effect.

I actually recommend a moderate amount of protein. I believe what may be best for those with hypoglycemia is to get on the healthy ketogenic diet combined with intermittent fasting.

0:00 Is the coronavirus update regarding mutation even true? 
0:20 COVID-19 mutation 

In this short video, we’re going to talk about mutations and COVID-19 mutation. 

In the news, they’re talking about how COVID-19 (the coronavirus) is a deadly virus that’s mutating and becoming more dangerous over time. I don’t believe this is true. 

A mutation is a change in the genetic code of something. COVID-19 does not appear to mutate significantly. With COVID-19, there could potentially be 2-6 mutations per month. The flu actually has 4-12 mutations per month. 

• COVID-19 is relatively stable (it’s less likely to become more dangerous as it spreads)

• The bulk of mutations of COVID-19 don’t change how it functions.

5:10 Breaking down the digestive tract—flora 
6:05 Breaking down the digestive tract—P.N.S

In this video, we’re going to talk about how to speed up your digestion. If you have constipation, indigestion, gas, bloating, or stomach pain, this video is for you. I’m actually going to break down each part of your digestive tract and explain a little bit about it.

Breaking down the digestive tract:

Stomach —
Acid is the key thing in your stomach. It helps you break down protein, absorb certain minerals, and kill pathogens. Many people do not have enough strong acid in their stomach. 

To support healthy stomach acid levels, consider:
• Hydrochloric acid (betaine hydrochloride)
• Salt 
• Potassium 
• Apple cider vinegar 
• Kombucha tea 

Consider avoiding:
• Antacids 
• Calcium carbonate 

Bile —
Bile is made by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile helps you break down fats. Supporting bile production can also help with bloating and belching.

To support bile production, consider:
• Bile salts 
• Beet tops 
• Ginger
• Artichokes 
• Lemon 
• Milk thistle
• Choline 

Consider avoiding:
• Decreasing friendly bacteria 
• Taking out the gallbladder if possible
• A fatty liver situation 

Enzymes —
A lot of enzymes are produced by your pancreas. Your small intestine, stomach, and microbes in your intestines can also make certain enzymes. Enzymes help you break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Heat destroys enzymes. 

To support enzymes, consider:
• Taking a blend of enzymes 
• Consuming more raw foods

Consider avoiding:
• Too many cooked foods
• Pasteurized foods 

Flora —
This is your friendly bacteria. Most of the flora in your body are in your large intestine. 

To support your flora, consider:
• Taking a probiotic 
• Consuming prebiotic foods (vegetable fiber)

Consider avoiding:
• Frequent antibiotic use if possible 
• GMO foods 

P.N.S —
Your parasympathetic nervous system is all about rest and digestion. 

To support and stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, consider:
• Lowering stress
• Increasing B1
• Increasing potassium 
• Increasing magnesium

0:08 Sweden coronavirus strategy 
1:00 What is herd immunity? 
2:06 The second wave of infection

Today we’re going to talk about how Sweden’s strategy regarding COVID-19. In Sweden, they aren’t under any lockdowns or quarantines.

In Sweden:
• The healthcare system is not at full capacity 
• The schools are open 
• The restaurants are open 
• They are practicing social distancing 
• They have banned groups of over 50

Sweden has the lowest number of ICU beds in all of the Nordic countries. It also appears that the number of deaths per day from the coronavirus in Sweden has gone down. 

Herd immunity is basically a situation where there are enough people exposed to a virus to build immunity against that specific pathogen. 

There are these things called B cells that are apart of the acquired immune system, and they make antibodies. Antibodies are very specific to a certain microbe. For example, when your body makes antibodies to COVID-19, they will wait until the next time you’re infected with COVID-19, and they will neutralize specific microbes associated with it. 

The theory is that with herd immunity, there will not be a massive spread of the virus. People become infected, then immune. They make antibodies, and then things are back to the way they were again. 

What Sweden tried to do was avoid the second wave of infection. The rest of the world that’s under lockdown will eventually have the lockdown lifted. Then, people are exposed to the virus again, and there could be a second wave of infection. 

Should we keep going with this cycle?

2:30 How to get rid of candida 

Today we’re going to talk about an interesting connection between MCT oil and candida. MCT stands for medium-chain triglycerides. This is a type of fat in coconut oil. There are several things in coconut oil that are anti-fungal and antimicrobial. MCT can potentially reduce candida in the body. 

Candida normally lives in the body and doesn’t create much harm. But, an overgrowth of candida can start causing problems. Candida is a cousin to mold and is related to fungus. 

An overgrowth of candida can cause: 

• White tongue 
• Burning mouth 
• Cotton mouth 
• Dry cracked skin in the corners of the mouth 
• Bad taste in the mouth 
• Fatigue 
• Lowered nutrients (B6, Essential Fatty-Acids, Magnesium, Iron, Vitamin A)

Candida overgrowth can occur after a person takes antibiotics, or after doing something that destroys the gut flora. 

Candida, mold, fungus, and yeast all live on carbohydrates. Cutting out sugar and lowering carbohydrates, as in the keto diet, could starve off candida. 

Candida remedies:

1. MCT oil 
2. Fasting 
3. Keto
4. Molybdenum

Today we’re going to talk about the effects of zinc on your respiratory system. There is a significant connection between zinc, the immune system, and especially your lungs. 

Potential situations that could occur if you’re deficient in zinc:

• Increased duration of lung infections 
• Diminished T cell function
• Increased cytokines
• Increased risk of lung infections
• People with conditions like COPD are typically deficient in zinc
• Increased risk for ARDS, upper respiratory infections, and lower respiratory infections
• Increased susceptibility of the lungs to ventilator-induced injury 

If you have a lung infection, your body is going to be using so much zinc that chances are you could become deficient. The infection itself can cause a depletion of zinc, and then you lose more of the ability to fight the infection.
