In this video, we’re going to talk about the best spices and herbs for rheumatoid arthritis.

What’s the difference between a spice and an herb?
• Herbs are the leaves, flowers, and stems of plants.
• Spices are the seeds, fruit, root, and bark of plants.

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease. This means that your own immune system is attacking itself—mainly the joints. There is a lot of inflammation going on, and it’s really the immune system causing the damage. With rheumatoid arthritis, you have a big problem with the T cells. These cells are doing a lot of destruction to your joints. There is also a certain T cell that is supposed to turn off this immune reaction, and I think this could be where the bigger problem is—it’s not balancing the reaction.

By using certain spices and herbs, you can help decrease the inflammatory process that’s creating the damage. You could also help strengthen the immune system and improve the antimicrobial function.

The best spices and herbs for rheumatoid arthritis:
1. Ginger
2. Thyme
3. Turmeric
4. Cinnamon
5. Garlic
6. Black pepper
7. Oregano

Other remedies for rheumatoid arthritis:
• Increase potassium
• Decrease sugar consumption
• Fast
• Increase vitamin D
• Avoid vegetable oils

1:16 Why T regulatory cells are important for immune function
1:53 Possible conditions caused by low T cells.
2:25 How to strengthen T regulatory cells
4:11 Other problems with low T regulatory cell function

In this video, we’re going to talk about what I think is the most important white blood cell. There are numerous different white blood cells, but the T regulatory cell is the most important. This white blood cell is also called the T suppressor cell or Treg.

What’s unique about this type of white blood cell is that it does the opposite of other white blood cells—it suppresses the immune system. In turn, this gives the immune system balance and prevents the immune system from overreacting. It also helps reduce mucus.

T regulatory cells regulate self-tolerance. This means it helps prevent your immune system from attacking healthy cells. It allows your immune system to tell the difference between your own healthy cells and pathogenic cells. In turn, this helps with preventing autoimmune conditions, including:
• Inflammatory bowel disease
• Type-1 diabetes
• Asthma
• MS
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Cytokine Storm

There are several nutrients that can affect T regulatory cell function. These include:
1. Vitamin A
2. Vitamin D
3. Zinc
4. DHA
5. Probiotics
6. Gluten (avoid this!)

Any nutrient deficiencies that suppress or atrophy the thymus gland will reduce T regulatory cell function. Keep in mind that the “T” in T regulatory cell stands for thymus. That’s because it’s produced in the thymus gland. Also, keep in mind that as you age, your thymus shrinks, causing more inflammation and poor immune function.

Children who have taken antibiotics early on tend to have problems with T regulatory cells, asthma, and certain other autoimmune diseases.

Today we’re going to talk about the importance of breastfeeding in relation to building the immune system. I believe breastfeeding creates the biggest effect on the future of your child’s health. By breastfeeding, you could ultimately help give your child an immune system before they’ve developed it.

What you need to know about the effect of breastfeeding on the immune system:

• There are many different strains of friendly bacteria in breastmilk that are passed over.

• The mother’s antibodies get passed over (antiviral antibodies and antibacterial antibodies).

• There is a lowered risk of respiratory infections, ear infections, allergies, ADD, autism, and asthma.

• T cells will be passed over. T cells can take the immune system to the next level.

• Butyrate can be passed over. This could potentially help prevent allergies and autoimmune diseases.

• The risk of type 1 diabetes could also be decreased.

• There is a more diverse microbiome.

• There is more interferon.

I think it would be best to breastfeed for a minimum of 6 months. Ideally, the child would have breastmilk for two years.

0:33 Vitamin D research
1:02 What are RDAs?
2:10 Health effects of low vitamin D
2:40 Best source of vitamin D

In this video, I want to talk about vitamin D and RDAs. You may have seen that the news is now bashing vitamin D. They are saying that you shouldn’t take too much because it’s toxic—it’s now considered dangerous when taking more than 600 IUs. Where is this coming from?

There was recently a study published by the national academy of medicine (NAM). After many years of compiling research, they happened to make a big error—by a factor of ten. Instead of recommending 600 IUs, they should have been recommending 8895 IUs.

RDAs are the recommended daily allowances of nutrients that are considered to be sufficient for over 97.5% of healthy people to prevent a deficiency. Keep in mind that RDAs do not consider unhealthy people.

Today, the data is still wrong and unchanged, which means many people are getting a false recommendation of 600 IUs/day.

This recommendation is crazy—we are facing a massive vitamin D deficiency pandemic right now. Most people are deficient in vitamin D, resulting in problems with…
• Immune system health
• Bone health
• Inflammation
• Increased risk of autoimmune diseases
and much more.

When you see information like this, make sure you search out who is providing this information. It’s important to check for errors, quality, and conflicts of interest.

The best source of vitamin D is not a particular food—it’s the sunlight. Sunlight stimulates the body’s natural ability to create vitamin D.

Many things can affect how much vitamin D you should consume:
• Excessive weight or obesity
• Age
• Skin color/melanin
• Infection
• Health conditions

1:15 The reason for high false-negative rates

In this video, we’re going to talk about COVID-19 and false negative testing. There was recently a study published by John-Hopkins, and there seem to many concerns with the data.

When you have a false negative when testing for COVID-19, this means that the test says you do not have the coronavirus when you are actually infected.

Here are the chances of the coronavirus being detected on a COVID-19 test:
Day 1: 0%
Day 4: 33%
Day 5: 62% (First symptoms occur around day 5)
Day 8: 80%
Day 21: 34%

During day 5-8, you will have the highest chance of an accurate test. However, most people do not get tested until they’ve started having more severe symptoms, which is between day 10 and day 21. This means the accuracy of these tests will be low when most people are tested.

2:20 How to prevent too much calcium in cells
3:51 What causes magnesium deficiency?
4:47 Other causes of too much calcium
5:37 What to do for heart arrhythmias

In this video, we’re going to talk about heart arrhythmias and how they relate to excessive amounts of calcium in your cells.

Arrhythmias are a problem with the rhythm of your heart. This could be a minor palpitation or a major atrial fibrillation—and anything else that involves an irregular heart rhythm.

The most common cause of arrhythmias is excess calcium stuck in your cells—this is why many arrhythmia medications are calcium channel blockers.

Calcium is one of many electrolytes that supports the function of your heart:
• Sodium controls the “spark”
• Calcium controls the “squeeze
• Magnesium controls the “relaxation”

There are many cannon triggers for heart palpitations:
1. Caffeine
2. Alcohol
3. Sugar
4. Stress (cortisol)
5. Electrolytes (magnesium)
6. Low vitamin D
7. Chocolate
8. Drugs

Each of these will affect calcium physiology—which can cause palpitations.

You can control how much calcium is in your cells with magnesium. Any imbalance of electrolytes can have a short-circuiting effect, which throws off the systems in your body and causes palpitations.

Low magnesium could be a result of insulin resistance or consuming too many foods high in sugar and carbs. It could also be a result of not consuming enough magnesium in your diet. Most magnesium comes from leafy greens.

Other causes of high calcium in the cells are:
• K2 imbalance
• Vitamin D imbalance
• Potassium imbalance

Take a look at your diet and lifestyle habits and see if any of the things I mentioned above could be triggering heart arrhythmia. It may take some trial and error to figure out a solution.

How long does magnesium really stay in your body? Here’s what you need to know.

0:18 What determines retention?
0:55 How much magnesium do you need?
1:53 Magnesium absorption
2:35 Magnesium deficiency
3:30 What causes a magnesium deficiency?

In this video, we’re going to talk about magnesium and how long it stays in your body. Certain minerals go through the body quickly, while other minerals don’t.

For example, minerals like sodium, iron, and calcium tend to be retained in the body. But, magnesium, potassium, and zinc are not held in the body for very long.

What determines the retention or recycling is how healthy the kidneys are. If your kidneys are very healthy, you may only lose a very small amount. But, if your kidneys are unhealthy, you could lose a lot more. There is a huge gap when it comes to how much magnesium your body will hold versus excrete.

The kidneys have the ability to get rid of excess magnesium, so it’s rarely toxic to the body. But, the body will get rid of .5-70% of magnesium within a 24 hour period. It’s very important to get plenty of magnesium.

The average American only consumes 200-300mg of magnesium per day. I believe a person should consume more like 500-600mg per day. Certain diseases, like diabetes, can cause the need for magnesium to go way up. This is because you likely aren’t retaining magnesium if you have blood sugar problems. Drinking a lot of alcohol can also severely decrease the ability to hold magnesium.

The number one symptom of a magnesium deficiency is fatigue. This is because the mitochondria (the energy factories of your cells) need magnesium to create the energy currency of the body. Palpitations and muscle weakness are a few more symptoms. If you crave chocolate, you may have a magnesium deficiency.

What causes a magnesium deficiency?
1. Empty calories (refined foods)
2. Phytates (oat bran, wheat, legumes)
3. Kidney damage
4. Not consuming enough foods with chlorophyll (vegetables)

3:35 How sugar affects immunity #7

In this video, we’re going to talk about how sugar affects the body—specifically the immune system. High blood sugar (hyperglycemia) has a huge effect on suppressing the immune system. Hyperglycemia is even one of the big factors involved in the COVID situation that could increase the risk of mortality. 

How sugar affects immunity:

1. Inhibited chemotaxis 
Chemotaxis is the movement of white blood cells through the body towards where they need to do their work. 

2. Impaired phagocytosis  
Phagocytosis is the mechanism where certain white blood cells will ultimately kill pathogens.

3. Inhibited complement cascade 
Complement cascade is a series of events that can occur that will cause the bacterial membrane to burst. It helps kill bacteria.

4. Acidosis—inhibits immunity 
The pH will go down, which can inhibit immunity. 

5. Slows white blood cells moving through tissues 
White blood cells have the ability to go through the tissues, the lymphatic system, organs, and blood vessels. Inhibiting this movement can have a negative effect on the immune system. 

6. Blood flow diminished 
High blood sugar could destroy the vascular system. This can cause less oxygen throughout the body. With that, you could have an increase in pathogens that can live in that environment. 

7. Less innate immunity 
This is a part of the immune system that’s like a wall. Hyperglycemia can destroy the protective barriers.

0:50 The hidden cause of palpitations
1:55 A question to ask yourself
2:25 Other symptoms of a gallbladder problem
3:15 What is bile

Today let’s talk about the hidden cause of palpitations. Palpitations can be scary, but most of the time, they’re not a problem.

A palpitation is when your heartbeat:
• Races
• Pounds
• Flip-flops
• Skips
• Flutters

Typically, what causes palpitations are fluctuations in blood sugar.

Other things that can cause palpitations are:
• Chocolate
• Caffeine
• Alcohol
• Fever
• Low potassium or magnesium

A hidden cause of palpitations has to do with the gallbladder. There is an interesting paper that shows the relationship between the gallbladder and an ECG reading. Problems with the gallbladder could alter the physiology of the heart that could be shown on an ECG. An abnormal ECG reading could be because of a problem with the heart, but it could also be because of the gallbladder and not the heart.

I always ask people what they ate right before the palpitations occurred. Typically the person ate something they usually don’t eat.

Other symptoms of a gallbladder problem:
• Right rib cage pain (or referred pain to the right side of the head, trap, rhomboid, or shoulder)
• Light-colored stool
• Stool that floats
• Nausea
• Bloating/burping/belching
• Constipation

A bile deficiency could cause certain problems with the gallbladder, which is often diet-related.

0:10 The main effect of this herb
0:32 What is ashwagandha?
0:45 What is the source of your stress?
1:55 Ashwagandha benefits 

Today we’re going to talk about the herb ashwagandha. I really like this herb, and I even use it in one of my Adrenal Formulas. It’s really great for stress. 

The main effect of this herb has to do with a phytochemical called withanolides. This phytochemical is a steroid compound, which is interesting because your adrenal glands are also made from steroids. Ashwagandha has been around for at least 3000 years. It’s an adaptogen, so it helps you adapt to and counter stress. 

I believe the best thing to do for stress is to isolate the cause of the stress and deal with it. Vitamins and supplements can help, but finding the true source of the stress and doing what you can to deal with it may help more. 

For example, if you’re experiencing a lot of fear related to the COVID-19 situation, it may be helpful to learn more about the virus and strengthen your immune system. 

Ashwagandha has potential anti-inflammatory properties, it is anti-anxiety, and it has immunoregulatory. 

Potential benefits of ashwagandha:
• Lowers cortisol 
• Lowers blood sugars
• Lowers stress/anxiety 
• Lowers depression 
• Increases testosterone
• Lowers inflammation
• Better brain function
• Lowers pain 
• Improve sleep

0:00 Enlarged prostate and urinary changes
0:13 What is LUTZ?
0:35 Is DHT the problem?
1:45 What could cause these problems
3:30 What you could do 

Today we’re going to talk about enlarged prostate and urinary changes. I’m specifically talking about BPH and LUTZ. 

LUTZ (lower urinary tract symptoms) could be:
• Frequent urination 
• Increased urgency 
• Have to go but can’t 
• Urinating more at night than throughout the day
• Poor stream
• Dribbling 
• Incomplete voiding 

These problems have been associated with DHT, which is a powerful form of testosterone. But, a recent study showed conflicting information. Many different factors bring up questions as to how these problems could be related to DHT as well. 

I don’t believe DHT is the cause. But, one of the causes could potentially be excess estrogen. Another cause could potentially be metabolic syndrome. 

Metabolic syndrome is a collection of various symptoms, including:
• Central obesity
• High blood pressure 
• High cholesterol 
• Impaired glucose 
• Low testosterone 
• Low-grade inflammation 

Hyperinsulinemia is what’s really behind metabolic syndrome. This is basically too much insulin in the blood. Insulin is anabolic, which means it makes things grow. Several studies show a significant high fasting insulin level with BPH and LUTZ. 

The reason behind an enlarged prostate and urination problems could be too much insulin. Healthy keto and intermittent fasting may help address the root problem (high insulin), and you could see some really great changes.
