In this video, we’re going to cover what you need to know about a protein deficiency. I want to fill you in on what causes protein deficiency, the different signs of protein deficiency, and what you can do if you have a protein deficiency. 

Protein deficiency symptoms:

• Sick often
• Delayed healing
• Lack of muscle growth
• Poor recovery
• Weak connective tissue
• Bone loss
• Low neurotransmitters 
• Low hormones 
• Low enzymes
• Can’t detox
• Poor sleep

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. The purpose of consuming protein is to get amino acids.

The purpose of amino acids are:

1. Muscle repair
2. Neurotransmitter precursors 
3. Raw material for biological proteins (enzymes, hormones, detox, DNA)

When you consume protein-rich foods, you may think that protein is going right in the body and providing raw material as amino acids. However, different types of proteins (eggs, meat, soy) are each absorbed differently. 

For example:

Egg 
• 48% will turn into body tissue
• 52% is wasted

Meat/Fish/Fowl
• 32% will turn into body tissue
• 68% is wasted 

A protein deficiency is not always due to not eating enough protein.

Protein deficiency causes:

• Low stomach acid
• Inflammation
• Age
• You’re an athlete
• Gastric bypass
• Heart problems 
• Liver/Kidney damage 
• Insulin resistance 
• Gut damage 

A great natural remedy for a protein deficiency is an interesting product that is a combination of 8 amino acids.

A little bit about this product:

• 99% of it turns into tissue
• There are barely any calories
• It’s completely anabolic
• It stimulates muscle repair 
• Take it on an empty stomach or after exercise

In this video, I want to answer a few questions about hormesis. What does hormesis mean, and how does hormesis work? 

What is hormesis? — Hormesis is a condition where you’re adding some stress or some toxicity in a small amount, and it’s very beneficial, compared to a larger amount where it becomes toxic. 

Hormesis examples:

• Exercise can be very beneficial and can make you fit over time. However, if you’re 50 or 60 years old and you haven’t been working out, and you do Crossfit for two hours, you’re going to have a toxic effect from that. 

• Fasting is very beneficial in a certain amount. But, if you fast for too long, you could end up having a toxic effect. 

• Phytonutrients are very beneficial in a small amount. However, if you consume a concentrated amount of foods with phytonutrients, it can have a toxic effect. 

• The way your body reacts to a small amount of heat or cold can be beneficial. For example, if you were to get in a sauna or take a cold shower. But, too much heat or too much cold can be a problem. 

• Very small amounts of alcohol may be beneficial. But, too much alcohol can be toxic. 

• A small amount of UV light is great, too much is bad.

Other examples of hormesis would be having too much:

• Estrogen
• Cortisol
• Growth hormone
• Thyroid hormone
• Insulin 
• Nutrients

In this video, I want to talk about keto critics and the importance of nutrition.

I recently met someone who was on the ketogenic diet and was feeling discouraged. Someone told her she should forget about keto and intermittent fasting and just enjoy herself.

But, that doesn’t make a lot of sense. Why?

• This way of thinking assumes eating healthy is not enjoyable (people on keto are satisfied eating wonderful healthy food)
• Pleasure foods end up being painful
• Pleasure foods increase dopamine
• The way people usually die nowadays is usually slow

Don’t listen to the keto naysayers. Your longevity has everything to do with what you eat, and eating healthy can be enjoyable.

Today, I want to talk about pine oil and the different benefits of pine oil.

What is pine oil? — Pine oil is an essential oil. Pine oil is a natural oil that comes from a pine tree and is concentrated. A lot of the pine oil benefits we’re going to cover come from its interesting antimicrobial properties.

Some people use pine oil disinfectant around the house, but the kind of pine essential oil that I’m talking about is the kind that you can:

• Consume
• Use topically
• Inhale 
 
Pine oil uses:

• For dandruff
• For itchy skin 
• For achy joints
• For respiratory infections

One of the best health benefits of pine oil is that it helps disinfect and fight:

• Bacteria
• Viruses
• Fungus
• Candida
• Lyme
• E. coli
• Salmonella

How to use pine oil (always start out with a small amount and use more if needed):

• Use it topically – Use 2 drops of pine oil mixed with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Rub it in.

• Orally – Drink 2 drops of pine oil mixed in an 8oz. glass of water. 

• Inhalation – Put 2 drops in a diffuser and breath it in slowly.

In this video, let’s talk about nutrients and your lifespan. How much of an influence do nutrients have on how long you live?

You are as strong as your weakest link. There are various weaknesses within our bodies that fail and then shorten our lifespan.

Your body is constantly trying to repair DNA damage. When your body fails to repair the DNA damage, or the free radical damage is too strong, you start to age, and your body begins to breakdown.

One study reports that DNA damage from micronutrient deficiencies may cause cancer.

Why are nutrients important? Because nutrients are involved in the repair action, which helps keep the DNA stable. If you’re deficient in a nutrient at a certain level, you’re going to be susceptible to a breakdown within the system.

The triage theory:
If you have somewhat of a deficiency, your body is going to ration out nutrients, and your genes and enzymes that are involved in longevity and repair will suffer.

Unfortunately, there are no real symptoms of having a shorter lifespan. That’s why I really want you to understand that you need to make sure you have all of the nutrients in your diet to extend your life.

I wanted to create a short video about Brazil nuts and selenium. Are Brazil nuts a good source of selenium?

Benefits of selenium:

• Selenium is great for people with Hashimoto’s 
• Selenium acts as an antioxidant 
• Selenium helps you convert thyroid hormone T4 to the active form T3

Are Brazil nuts good? Well, the problem with Brazil nuts is that they have high amounts of phytic acid. 

Phytic acid binds minerals and blocks:

• Selenium 
• Zinc
• Iron
• Magnesium 
• Calcium 
• Chromium 
• Manganese
• Copper

How to consume Brazil nuts:

• If you want to consume Brazil nuts, you have to soak them in water overnight before eating them. This will help get rid of the phytic acid.

• You could also consume roasted Brazil nuts. But, the problem with roasting the nuts is that heat destroys some heat-sensitive vitamins and beneficial oils.

Brazil nuts are not the best source of selenium unless you soak them overnight. Another great way to get the health benefits of selenium is to consume seafood.

In this video, we’re going to talk about pregnancy and diabetes. If you have pre-diabetes, insulin resistance, or you’re a diabetic while pregnant, there are several things you need to know.

What is insulin resistance? — This is a condition where your body is not able to absorb insulin. Your body has to make more insulin than it needs, and that excess insulin creates a lot of problems. Your blood sugars may be normal, but you have a big problem under the surface. 

HOMA-IR is a test you can take before you get pregnant to check and see if you have insulin resistance.

Complications from having blood sugar problems while pregnant:

• The baby is more likely to become a diabetic 
• There is a higher risk of a stillbirth
• The mother may have a problem with fertility
• The baby may have stunted growth
• The baby may have birth defects
• The baby may have pre-eclampsia

The big problem with insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, or diabetes is that your ability to absorb certain essential nutrients is impaired. If you’re pregnant and you have insulin resistance, you need to be taking nutrients or eating foods rich in nutrients to prevent complications. 

Nutrients you need:

• Vitamin C
• Vitamin A
• Vitamin E
• Magnesium 
• Potassium
• Manganese
• Zinc
• Chromium 
• Selenium
• Folate
• B1
• Biotin

Symptoms of insulin resistance:

• Belly fat
• Frequent urination at night
• Not satisfied after eating
• Tired after eating
• Low blood sugar symptoms
• Craving carbs 

Action steps:

• Get on the healthy ketogenic diet (before you’re pregnant or during pregnancy)

• Do intermittent fasting (only before you’re pregnant, not during pregnancy or while breast-feeding)
