Zainab’s Testimonial

Following a heart attack in 2019, Zainab experienced difficulty with breathing and mobility. She knew, though, that she had created her physical state as a result of emotional stress, and so she also knew that she could heal herself. From the first meditation at the Dubai week long retreat, Zainab experienced physical improvements, and she kept asking herself: “If this happened, what else could happen?” She was delighted to find out, again and again.

1:06 What you can do

Today we’re going to talk about the relationship between hepatitis C, iron, and cirrhosis. 

A few hepatitis C symptoms:

• Fatigue 
• Flu-like symptoms 
• Dark urine 
• Abdominal pain 
• Yellow skin/eyes

There is a high rate of people with hepatitis C that also have high iron. When you have hepatitis C, it makes it more difficult to get rid of iron. Typically, people with hepatitis C have iron overload, and that iron creates oxidation and free-radicals. This can lead to inflammation and cirrhosis. Hepatitis C even thrives on iron.

What may be beneficial:

• Lactoferrin (3.6g)
• Vitamin D 
• Fasting

Significantly Boost Your Red Blood Cell (RBC) Production With…..

This interesting form of training may help boost your red blood cell production.

3:50 Hyperbaric oxygen therapy 
4:17 Benefits of intermittent hypoxic training 

In this video, we’re going to talk about how to strengthen your red blood cell.

What do red blood cells do?

• Red blood cells are called erythrocytes. They are there as a method of carrying oxygen. 

• Your body makes 2.4 million red blood cells per second. 

• Red blood cells are made in a factory inside of your long bones. 

• A red blood cell will last between 100-120 days.

• It takes 60 seconds for a red blood cell to travel from your lung, through your body, and back to your lung. 

• It has no nucleus or DNA. Viruses use your DNA to replicate, so viruses can’t hurt red blood cells. 

• You have between 20-30 trillion red blood cells. That makes up 70% of all of your cells. 

• The red blood cell can’t use ketones as fuel. It uses glucose. Your body makes its own glucose (gluconeogenesis). You don’t need to consume glucose to feed the red blood cell.

If you’re deficient in red blood cells, you might feel:

• Fatigue 
• Shortness of breath 
• Weakness

How to strengthen red blood cells:

• Make sure you have enough iron (but not too much)
• Make sure you have enough B12
• Intermittent hypoxia training 

What is intermittent hypoxia training? 

Intermittent—you’re going to do something and then not do it. 

Hypoxia—without oxygen or low oxygen.

With intermittent hypoxia training, you starve oxygen to the body for a little bit, and then you breathe, and you do this back and forth. 

I like to use a hypoxic mask, but not for exercises where I’m not breathing very much. I like to use the mask for exercises where I’m huffing and puffing. I wear this mask for 2 minutes, and then I take it off for 2 minutes and repeat. 

When you starve the body of oxygen for a short period of time:

• You trigger certain genes that create changes within the red blood cell
• You increase red blood cell production by up to 10x
• You increase the size of the red blood cell
• You stimulate your antioxidant reserve 

By doing intermittent hypoxia training, you’re going to carry way more oxygen, so when you exercise, you’ll last a lot longer. You will sleep better, and it may have therapeutic benefits for certain diseases.

Natalie’s Testimonial

****UPDATE from Natalie – February 2, 2020:
“…I got results from my MD – the situation with my lungs is much better now, my liver stays the same at the moment, my bones still on a risky side (but I’m sure it will get better very soon). Some small tumors have disappeared, the biggest one (breast tumor) shrinked in about half size and I can have a surgery now, if I want to (before it was inoperable stage). The thromb under my left knee has gone. My blood test results are really good and oncomarkers dropped down to normal.”

By the time Natalie attended the Dubai week long retreat, cancer had metastasized to her liver, chest and spine, causing a lot of pain. At several times during the retreat, she had to make a decision whether to identify more with her illness, or to identify with her future healthy self.

In this video, we’re going to talk about keto-friendly condiments. It may seem like a straightforward topic, but there are exceptions to the rule and things that can actually get pretty confusing. Many different condiments have hidden sugars, high-fructose corn syrup, or soy oil. Even organic condiments can have hidden sugar and ingredients that aren’t keto-friendly. Consider making your own condiments to be sure they’re keto-friendly. Give a few of my tasty recipes a try.

Condiments to watch out for on the keto diet:

• BBQ sauce 
• Ketchup 
• Mustard (usually ok)
• Mayonnaise 
• Herbs (just fine)
• Pesto (most of the time it’s ok)
• Dressings 
• Hot sauce (usually ok)
• Salt

In this video, I want to cover the most common low-carb myths.

9 low-carb myths, and what I have to say about them:

1. Low-carb is a fad diet. (A fad is an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something that is short-lived)
• The keto diet is growing in popularity because it works.

2. It’s okay for weight loss, but not for long-term health.
• Why would something work short-term and not long-term?

3. All that fat is unhealthy.
• We recommend healthy fats. Fats have benefits.

4. It’s not sustainable.
• Low-carb diets get rid of cravings and hunger.

5. It’s not healthy to omit a food group.
• There is no such thing as healthy sugar or refined carbohydrates.

6. Low-carb means you have to cut down on vegetables.
• We recommend 7-10 cups of vegetables a day.

7. The brain needs carbs—you’ll be tired.
• Your brain thrives on ketones.

8. It’s not good for a diabetic.
• Low-carb may actually help your blood sugar levels.

9. Low-carb means high-protein
• We recommend a moderate amount of protein.

Could Your Snacking be a Medical Disorder?

2:05 My opinion on snacking and binge eating 
2:13 How to stop binge eating 

Could your snacking or binge eating be a medical disease? In this video, we’re going to find out. 

The newest eating disorder is called Binge Eating Disorder or (B.E.D). 

Signs of a binge eating disorder: 

• Excessive eating at least 1 time a week for 3 months
• Eating every 2 hours
• Eating more rapidly 
• Eating until uncomfortable 
• Eating alone 
• Feeling guilty after eating 
• Being on a fad diet where you cut out food groups 
• Engaging in sporadic fasting and binging 

There is a drug for a binge eating disorder called Vyvanse. This is a new application of an old drug that has been used for other things. It’s the only FDA approved solution for this disease. 

Side effects of a Vyvanse:

• Sudden cardiac death 
• Stroke 
• Significant high blood pressure 
• Psychosis 
• High rate of abuse 
• Seeing and hearing things 

I am definitely not promoting Vyvanse as the solution to this disease. It’s my opinion that snacking and binge eating is not a medical disease. I think it’s a normal thing that a lot of people go through, and if they just did healthy keto combined with intermittent fasting, their need for snacks would go down.

Does Losing Weight Reduce Insulin Resistance?

Will losing weight reduce your insulin resistance? Watch this video to find out.

Timestamps:
0:00 Will losing weight reduce my insulin resistance?
0:23 What is insulin resistance?
1:16 The incorrect way to lose weight
2:17 How to lose weight correctly and repair insulin resistance
3:47 Summary

In this video, I want to answer the question, “will losing weight reduce my insulin resistance?”

Insulin resistance is the thing that comes before diabetes and pre-diabetes. So if you have diabetes or pre-diabetes, you also have insulin resistance.

Insulin resistance is a situation where your cells are no longer absorbing insulin, so your body starts producing way more insulin than it should.

In turn, this causes a lot of problems:
• Prevents your ability to burn fat
• Stores excess amounts of fat
• Causes weight to plateau

So, if you lose weight, can you help improve insulin resistance?

The answer is this:

It all depends on how you lose weight. If you lose weight incorrectly, you are going to gain the weight right back. This is because if you don’t cut back on carbs, you won’t really fix insulin resistance—even if you cut calories and xercise.

The key is to lose weight correctly. Start on healthy keto and intermittent fasting. This is the best way to help correct insulin resistance.

If you have a lot of body fat, your fat cells will release something called cytokines. Cytokines help create inflammation—which causes damage to the body over the long term.

Inflammation also contributes to insulin resistance—it’s like a vicious cycle. The best way to fix the problem is healthy keto.

Don’t try to lose weight to reduce your insulin resistance. Instead, reduce your insulin resistance to lose weight.

Need More Carbs to Boost Energy?

Do you need carbs to boost energy? The answer is no. Here’s why.

0:14 Carbs and energy 
0:19 Symptoms of low potassium 
0:38 Insulin-induced hypokalemia
1:47 A few more causes of a potassium deficiency 

In this video, we’re going to talk about carbs and energy. Many people think they need carbs for energy, but they don’t.

When you eat carbs, you lose potassium. Low potassium can cause symptoms such as:

• Fatigue
• Weakness 
• Paralysis
• Leg cramps 
• Abnormal heart rhythm 
• High blood pressure 
• Tremors 

There is something called insulin-induced hypokalemia. Hypokalemia is low potassium. When you stimulate insulin because your carbs are high, you block an enzyme, which is a pump. You have millions of these in all of your cells. 

This pump basically keeps the potassium inside of the cell and the sodium outside of the cell to form an electrical gradient so it can act as a battery. 30% of all of the energy in the body is allocated to this pump. If you inhibit this pump, more potassium stays outside of the cell, and you start losing potassium.

There are more causes of a potassium deficiency such as:

• A spike in insulin
• Not consuming enough potassium foods
• Loss of fluid 
• Steroids 
• Alkalosis 
• Diuretics 
• A decrease in magnesium

The 5 Reasons for Stomach Pain on the Ketogenic Diet

Why do you have stomach pain while on keto? Watch this video to find out.

Timestamps:
0:06 Reason #1: Sugar alcohols
1:20 Reason #2:Fiber
2:49 Reason #3: Not enough fluid
3:43 Reason #4: Dietary fat
4:45 Reason #5: High protein

In this video, I want to talk to you about 5 reasons you may have stomach pain while on the ketogenic diet. Many people have asked me why they get stomach pain when they first start keto. These are the most common reasons:

1. Sugar alcohols
Most people who first start keto consume a lot of “keto bombs” and other sweet keto treats. The problem is, your stomach may not be used to the sugar alcohols in some of these treats. This includes erythritol, xylitol, mannitol, and maltitol. A sensitivity to these will give you a lot of bloating and stomach pain. Try cutting back and see if it helps you.

2. Fiber
Too much fiber can cause some stomach pain on keto. Why? Because your gut may not have enough of the friendly bacteria that deal with the fiber in 7-10 cups of vegetables. If you’re not used to eating all those vegetables, start small, and gradually increase your intake. This will give your body time to build up more of those microbes.

3. Not enough fluid
When you first switch from carbs to fats on keto, you are going to get rid of a lot of excess fluid. You have to replace that fluid to keep your body hydrated. The fiber that you consume with vegetables requires more fluid to get through your system. Otherwise, it can suck moisture from your large intestine and leave you dehydrated.

4. Dietary fat
Many start consuming too much fat too quickly. You don’t have the gallbladder capacity to break down a large number of fats until your body adapts. Start slow and work your way up. Also, keep in mind that low-quality fats can also cause stomach pain.

5. High protein and low stomach acid
Too much protein can also cause stomach pain on keto. This is especially true if your stomach’s acidity isn’t at a pH between 1 and 3. You need a highly acidic stomach to break down proteins. Betaine hydrochloride and apple cider vinegar can help with this.

1:29 Can sun prevent melanoma?

Today we’re going to talk about sun exposure and melanoma. On the one hand, there’s a push to have everyone avoid the sun. On the flip side, 69 % of the population has vitamin D insufficiency.

Research indicates that:

• Non-burning sun exposure is associated with a decreased risk of melanomas.

• Getting too much sun, like a sunburn, is associated with doubling the risk of melanomas.

• Outdoor workers have lowered incidences of melanoma than indoor workers.

Realize that vitamin D has a protective function that may help protect from the potential damage to your DNA that the sun can cause.
