Question

“I take a lot of supplements. I’d rather not take them anymore, but only the ones that are necessary. Am I OK to just take the Juice Plus Berry blend and Juice Plus vegetable blend, the ProvenMD Energy Core, and the ProvenMD MultiMin, and of course, vitamin D3 w/ K2, and also magnesium l-threonate at night for sleep? Would this be sufficient?”  [0:02:48]

Answer

Yes. But again, I don't know who you are or what your real needs are, but that is a very well-proven, clinically tested. So, we're not talking about wonderment in a vitamin shop or in a drugstore aisle about do these things work. We're talking about clinical research and feedback and laboratory testing on real human beings on all these things. So, these are the highest quality materials that you can get. And I'm glad to see that there's more and more research. Over the 45 years I've been doing this, now it's vogue and all the rage to be involved in anti-aging nutraceutical usage, but the actual reality of it and testing and follow-up is that there is a lot of challenges in companies that claim to be producing things, their sources for their materials, making sure that they're not contaminated, heavy metal contaminated, and then their product is actually this kind of quality. So, this is a challenge and we're always trying to fight deception, you know, even in science. So, I'm going to say, that sounds like very very thorough and I I'm familiar with all these products. Sounds very good, and it probably is very good if you're generally in good health and doing well.

Question

“Hi Dr. Ellithorpe, what are your thoughts on taking Rho NAD and glutathione for youthfulness? If so, what brand do you prefer? Thank you.”  [0:05:27]

Answer

You know, I've been doing this, and my father being in food research, I truly am a dinosaur. And so, NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is one of the molecules that are involved in electron transport in the mitochondrial tricarboxylic pathway (Krebs cycle) inside of our mitochondria. And yes, of course, every single molecule in our body is important. Is Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide more important? Well, it's certainly very important. but there's CoQ10, there's FAD, there's many other molecules in that chain. So, if you're just marketing and you are sensing the pulse, kind of like doing an opinion poll and you're sensing the trend of people practicing natural health, you're going to pick up any molecule you can that has some reasonable research, and if it's economical to produce, you're going to produce it and claim all the wonderful things it's a part of. Well, you could make that claim biochemically for every molecule in the human body, in the sense that everything is ultimately related to everything else because we are interdynamic feedback system. So, I like NAD, I want it to be the best. But would I take NAD above, say, weightlifting? Would I say, I'm going to take NAD and stay youthful versus weightlift? No. Weightlifting is probably the most proven thing, along with not eating late and along with a high protein diet to live well and long to get to your 100th birthday. So, everything is relative.

So, no, I'm not against NAD. Do I take it? No, I don't take it. Do I take other things? I take CoQ10, but I also had heart disease when I was a very very young girl. I was hospitalized, coronary care unit for four months. So, I was quite quite ill in the 1960s, late ’69, I think it was 1969 or 1970. So, I don't have a deficiency in CoQ10. I do eat beef and I get a good source from there. But I'm not going to support NAD over, let's say, vitamin D or over, let's say, Juice Plus, the most researched nutraceutical in the world. I am going to say it’s important. And testing your level of NAD is no small feat. There is no real laboratory routine test for Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide. It just doesn't exist on the routine lab.

And then what about glutathione? Glutathione is a large molecule. It's a major antioxidant in the human body, and it is orally not absorbed very well at all. They are making liposomal, which is a fatty suspended form of glutathione. Since our cell membranes are made of fat, like in our picture over here, you can see this picture vaguely. This is a double membrane cell wall membrane. It's the double layers of phospholipid fats. So if you wrap these nutrients in fat envelopes or little mycelia, and that's what your cholesterol floats around in your plasma. Your water-soluble plasma floats around in these little lipid balls. So, liposomal means little fat balls carrying around the water-soluble glutathione. Yeah, you can take it. I don't take that either. I'd rather not spend the high cost of money on liposomal glutathione, and I'd rather eat a healthy protein diet, and take the chances of eating and living a healthy lifestyle than paying all that money for it. So, that's how I feel about that.

Question

“Hi, Dr. Rita! A friend would love to know what electrolyte supplement you recommend for someone on the carnivore diet.”  [0:11:39]

Answer

I could make the argument you don't need an electrolyte supplement on the carnivore diet because probably the highest source of minerals/salts are in the meat, the flesh of pork and beef and shrimp and lobster and fish and eggs and chicken and all these things there. It's just packed chunk full of minerals. Now, do I still take a multimineral? I do, and one of the reasons is there aren't really any good multiminerals out there with enough copper. And I generated, I created our TLC Multimineral decades ago to have at least 1 mg of copper in it. And this really helps everyone with their iron metabolism, and I really do think we are all significantly copper-deficient, just like we're all iodine-deficient and we're all magnesium-deficient. So, I'm not so sure that we really need a multimineral.

Now, as you get older, the fragility of your skin gets thinner, easily torn, easily bruised. So, your cell membranes tend to get more fragile and cells can get these little breaks. And like on this picture here, you know, I show you how on one side it's all healed up and the other side is the double phospholipid membrane of the cell membrane. But when you get older, more of them get injured like this one right here. So, then your cell leaks and it loses its vitality and viability, and the minerals in that cell leak out too. So, the membranes can't separate charges of potassium and chloride and other ions in the solution. So, it is probably a smart idea for all people over, say 55, 60, to take a multimineral. So, I take a multimineral as well. I use my TLC MultiMin. And I salt my food liberally to taste to enjoy it, but I drink enough water every day. Of course, water I think is very essential because we're largely made of water. But I don't pick out any electrolyte, like the popular one talked about is LMNT. LMNT electrolyte, they claim, is a perfect balance of electrolytes for the body, and they recommend it after workouts and so forth. I'm sure it's a fine product. I don't know that you need it unless you're not eating enough meat, fish, chicken, turkey, beef, things like that, and salting your food. I use various sources of salt. I'll use Celtic salt. I'll use Himalayan salt. So, I have various trace minerals in the various products that I get. But that's kind of how I feel about it. So, I'm not going to recommend a supplement. I'm going to recommend a rich high-protein diet that we need as we age and probably digestive enzyme because if you're old enough to need more and more protein to try and just even maintain muscle mass with weightlifting, you're going to need a digestive enzyme to help digest it because even digestion slows down. So, it's not just putting it in your body, it's helping your body to break it down and assimilate the amino acids. So, hopefully that's helpful.

We're in the season of selling products, creating video bites on the YouTube, and picking out marketable nutrients and information on them and talking about how great you feel and how it has so helped you, but I think either you have to have 45 years of clinical experience doing this as a medical professional or you need to be a scientist published and doing and reporting on your research because I really feel sad for all of you people who don't have this background. It's very hard for you to not be drawn in with all these AI videos. I am basically giving up trying to watch them, because when I am on the YouTube, I'm always thinking about my patients out there and all they're seeing on the TikTok, Instagrams, YouTube's, Rumble advertisements, and everything out there is basically you can heal any disease with this one super nutrient. You can lose weight with this one special formula you make up 7-second routines. It's really out of control, and they are really stretching the truth, and they will just drag you to do a click into these rabbit holes. I don't know if they're trying to get information, certainly trying to snare you into buying something. But do you really need it? Who's supervising it? And I admit, the medical profession has failed you, in that all these years we doctors should have been greatly taught a lot more biochemistry and physiology and nutrition, and we weren't. We were basically trained to be professional drug reps and hospitalists and interventionists. Our acute care trauma management, like when I was an emergency room doctor, we still are the best in the world for acute problems. But as far as prevention and chronic disease, we’re lousy. So, we've created this problem that we've hoisted upon all of you poor souls out there, but I I'm just trying to do the best, and I'm always scouring it almost every day of my life and trying to look for the most part on these Instagram/YouTube, so I can get a better feel for what you're being pelted with as far as recommendations. But I don't think you need to buy some specific product for electrolytes. Salt your food. Know your age. If you're over 50, 55, you probably need digestive support. If you are a blood type A, A type blood people don't digest well since their youth, even childhood. And so, A's develop a problem with being able to extract, lack of digestion of their food. And so, they have nutrient deficiencies or borderline subclinically all their life, and it's just for a lack of a digestive enzyme that would change their lives many many times.

Question

“Hello Dr. Rita, can you talk about benefits of rebounding? Is it ok to do it daily?”  [0:19:24]

Answer

Absolutely. You know, a rebounder is that little mini trampoline. It's about 3 feet in diameter. I have one. Mine has a bar because I'm in my 70s. And it's very good for balance, especially for older people. My grandchildren love it. When they come out, they love to get on grandma's rebounder and bounce and bounce and bounce. But it is very good for lymphatic drainage. It is very good for balance and proprioceptive feedback to where your body's at in a 3-dimensional spatial situation. So, your feet are sending back nervous signals to your brain and your ear position, and it just helps you to stop falling. It is a cardiovascular support. It is a very good lower body muscle strengthener. So, yeah, I think rebounding should be in every home, especially up in the colder weather. I'm from the Northern Illinois Chicagoland area, Southern Wisconsin is where my family is from, and a rebounder is an excellent thing, especially in the long winter months where you can't walk safely on the sidewalks. You'll slip and fall there with all the ice and snow and everything. A rebounder is a great thing to have. So, I'm going to say, it's a wonderful anti-aging, circulation, balance, muscle building, cardiovascular and lymphatic cleansing, detoxing, protocol system. You know, I don't think you need to do it very long. I think if you did it like three minutes morning and evening, it would be a very good thing.

Again, it's hard for me to just say talk in an isolated way because you have to drink enough water as well. And then I could get into a whole kick about all the research on water over many decades. Not only should we drink a reasonable amount of water, we say half your weight in ounces every day. So, if you're 150 pounds, you should have 75 ounces a day. And not only should it be water, you should filter that water. And not only should you filter the water, you should vortex the water. In other words, try and make it structured by creating a vortex, and I have my magnetic vortex I do that with. And not only that. You can create structured water more permanently with the Analemma wand, which is a crystal wand that has permanent structured water in it. It takes a year to make each one because it'll take in the entire Analemma of the sun circuit and the electromagnetic energy signatures that are generated throughout the whole year. That is picked up because water is a tremendous absorber of electromagnetic energy.

And then the final thing about water that we know to date is that water has isotopes of the hydrogen molecule. So, there's two hydrogens and one oxygen to make water. And the heavy hydrogen is deuterium. It has not only a proton and electron like normal hydrogen molecules, but deuterium, its isotope has a proton and an electron, but in the nucleus it also has a neutron, and it makes it twice as heavy, and that messes up our energy production in the mitochondria. The little hydrogen pumps right along that Krebs cycle energy electron transfer chain is messed up with the heavy protons from the isotopes of hydrogen, and it's theorized as another mechanism for aging. So, drinking deuterium-depleted water is a final wise thing and that's one of the most recent things that I've been doing here. So, I have been getting litewater, and that means it doesn't have a fraction of the heavy isotopes, and there are 10 parts per million on it. If you can see that, 10 PPM. And so, I mix this in my bottle every day. So you can see I have my Analemma wand which structures the water. And then what I do is I will put about a fourth of this as the deuterium-depleted water, and then I'll put the rest of this as my filtered water, so it's a 1:3 ratio, because this light water is expensive, but the research on it PubMed/NIH very clearly extends the life of plants and cells and animals, and even human studies. Now there are tens of thousands of people with cancer on the litewater, getting much better energy, vitality. That was a long answer, but hopefully that helps you with rebounding.

Question

“How much protein would a 150-lb woman need daily?”  [0:25:25]

Answer

Well, if you're not in a terribly ill state, you're not terribly injured from a compound fracture, motor vehicle accident, a terrible burn, fighting off the ravages of cancer and cachexia from cancer, then what you need to do is try and eat as much protein as possible. But if you're younger and you're a child or a teenager or an athlete, your protein requirements are different. So, I'm speaking to the average non-professional athlete, younger person, say younger than 50, and I would say about 0.8 grams per pound. So, if you're 150 pounds, that would be 0.8 would be close to like 100 grams of protein a day. I try and aim for 100 grams of protein myself, 120 grams. And so, roughly a maximum, especially if you're injured or trying to heal up from surgery or some burns that are serious, you know, 1 gram per pound is fabulous. But it's hard to eat 150 grams to get all that protein in. I would say like 7 oz, 8 oz steak is somewhere in the realm of 75 grams of protein. You would have to eat two 8 oz of steaks a day. I don't know if I can do that. I've never been able to eat that much steak in a day, but that's what it's at.

Question

“Evenity (romosozumab-aqqg) is the bone drug I mentioned last week. Is estradiol enough to hold gains made on a bone drug? How have you helped patients transition off of a bone drug?”  [0:27:12]

Answer

Well, I don't think there's ever been any published data comparing the two side by side because you're not going to make money off of natural estradiol. That's you can't patent normal human molecules. So, you're going to have to go with my 45 years of experience. And I have 80-year-old, 90-year-old, 100-year-old women who have normal bone densities, and all I've done is put them on natural hormone replacement therapy, emphasized protein and weightbearing exercise, weightlifting, and an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, staying well hydrated, and none of them had to go on these type of drug therapies to stimulate osteoblast formation and/or block osteoclast bone breaking down cell activity. So, I'm going to say, yes clinically in my experience that's all you need and a doctor who's going to monitor your estradiol and progesterone levels. Remember, it isn't just estradiol. I use the progesterone with it. I look at the testosterone, the DHEA, the vitamin D levels. So, we don’t use higher levels. I usually keep my women somewhere in the realm of close to 80 to 100 on their vitamin D levels. So, all of that matters.

"How have you helped patients transition off a bone drug?" Well, we take their most recent bone mineral density, and usually they're coming to me by the time they need to do their next bone density, roughly a year or two later from the last one and we start it as our baseline, and we just go for it with our stop the drug and we go with the natural hormones, the vitamin D, the weightbearing exercises, the healthy lifestyle changes, the hydrational protocols. And again, even circadian rhythm, getting a good night's sleep, getting sunshine in the morning, grounding, all these things, we are electrochemical beings made of largely water and hydrogen. So, we have to take all these things into context as we are planning to follow our patient on a multi-level plane. And then we would do a recheck in three months to check the levels and the vitamin D levels, the estradiol, progesterone levels, the testosterone levels, see how you're doing. And very often these hormone levels we get you to are enough, if you have a uterus, to have a natural hormonal supported menstrual cycle, very light. And even I, myself, at 73 have a normal cycle, very light, every month, it's absolutely problem-free for me. So, I have to explain to women, to have the benefit of the bones, you have the have to have the benefit of the hormones, and you'll get the side effect of a normal uterus, will act normally and respond and have a little menstrual cycle every month. So, you can't forget that either

Question

“Would a 65-year-old post-menopausal woman benefit from hormone replacement therapy, even if she has no bothersome symptoms? What levels would indicate a replacement would be of benefit? Thanks.”  [0:31:27]

Answer

Well, menopause is a slow process, and without the support of the natural general contractor activities of estradiol, it's like a general contractor for building a home. Estradiol has a multitude of work to do in the body. It just doesn't let you menstruate. It is involved in your brain and your neurons, thinking and retaining memory. It's involved in being calm and having a sense of peace, calmness. It is involved in cardiovascular health. Most women are aware of the fact  that when they go through menopause, they immediately jump up to the higher risk of heart attack, cardiovascular risks than when they were menstruating. So, it has a tremendous cardiovascular protective effect. The other issues are immune. The immune system of a younger woman is superior to an older woman. So, you could go on and on about all the parts of the human body and the receptors for estradiol on these parts of the human body. So, we would say it's abnormal to lose function of the body, and the function of natural hormones is a sad thing to lose. So yeah, I would say the benefits would outpace any doubts that estradiol is anything but a wonderful thing that God planned for a woman to have. I think had Eve and Adam not sinned, they would still be alive today, and they would still maybe have a baby every 500 years. And so, they'd have 12 children by now in our 6,000-year-old Earth. So, there you go.

Question

“Hi Dr. Ellithorpe, could you share information about TLC supplement “Good Night”? I have some trouble staying asleep, etc., so I started taking only one capsule at bedtime. Can this be taken long-term? Seems to improve my sleep. Not sure if I should take two caps like directions say. Thank you!!”  [0:33:54]

Answer

That is a melatonin-based supplement. It has little supportive herbs and magnesium in it, but it's basically a melatonin supplement. Can this be taken long term? The answer is yes. Yes, you can definitely do that. You can stop and start it ad-lib whenever you need to. There's no problem with it being chronically used. And I have seen research by Dr. Russell Reiter. He's done the greatest research on melatonin, and he takes 100 mg of melatonin every evening for the past 30 years. So, yeah, it's quite safe to take. So, feel safe doing that.

Question

“What is the best way through nutrition to get the recommended daily calcium requirements of 1200 mg? Are fortified calcium products like almond or soy milk ok? What about dairy products like milk and cheese? If calcium supplementation is needed, what is the most bioavailable form?”  [0:35:11]

Answer

Well, I don't ever recommend calcium supplementation. So, I disagree with the recommended daily amounts of 1200 mg.

“Are fortified calcium products like almond or soy milk okay?” I don't like almond or soy milk. So, I'm going to say no to that. And I would never take calcium fortification man-made foods to market. I would never do it.

“What about dairy products like milk and cheese?” Well, I don't think we understand that dairy is not dairy. When you take the milk produced by a cow and then you heat it up and pasteurize it and make it hot, and then you shake it so violently that you rip apart the molecules of the protein and fats and sugars that even cream can't float to the top anymore, it is not milk anymore. It's a whole new molecular inflaming situation, and it turns itself into a glob of solid inflammatory bricks of cheese. So, we are just being driven around for convenience sakes and sales and lies. I never take dairy, and it isn't dairy anymore, any more than if I took a human being and put him through a wood chipper and killed him and the pile at the other side of the wood chipper is a dead person and their DNA matches that and the court would say so and so was a wonderful living person and she was put through the wood chipper her and now her pile of dead tissue is on the floor, but this is, by DNA, that person. So, it really isn't the person. So, milk is not milk by going through pasteurization and homogenization. It's inflaming to the human body and our children, we have to stop it. We have to stop all these marketed nutrient fortified foods and eat real nutrients. We have to get rid of industrialized farming and get back to mom and pop farms like I grew up with in the 1950s where someone would own, you know, 100 acres, 400 acres, 500 acres, not these thousands of acres and industrializing, farming them, monocrop therapy. No. My dad, in food science research at Armour Food, would talk with a farmer. He leased out the back of our land to him to farm. And I would be with my dad all the time, and they'd pick up the soil and he would talk with the farmer and I got to ride the back of his tractor and you just smell the good dirt and they loved talking about the land everything. His name was Mr. Steinhoff, and I went to school with his son Mark. And I just had so much fun. His wife had an organ she played in the house. So, it was just an incredible way to grow up. It was wonderful. So, no, I'm not for these kind of silly things with calcium supplementation.

The other thing is, if you eat meat, you're going to get more calcium. If you eat fish, you're going to get more calcium. If you eat shrimp, lobster, chicken with the skin on it, eggs, you're going to get all the calcium, and it's going to be bioavailable calcium, not this foolish stuff that they make calcium oxides. Amino acid chelated calcium is far better in the in the natural format of the chicken flesh, the meat flesh, the pork flesh, the fish flesh, the eggs, and so forth, and in unpasteurized, unhomogenized dairy.

And I just want to say one more thing about calcium. Back in the 1980s, they were recommending I think 250 mg of calcium, as they were just starting to –  my dad would be at all these mom & pop vitamin shops and talking with the PhDs and food research there. And then it went up to 500 mg of calcium for bone density. And then it went up to 1000 mg. And then it went up to 1500 mg. And the bone densities never got better with taking this extra calcium because we can't do better than the way God meant for it to be. So, I'm going to say, the highest richest source of calcium supplementation is eating your steak, your pork, your chicken, your fish, your shrimp, your lobster, your scallops, your eggs, these kind of things. That's the way I would do it.

Question

“Asking for my daughter. She’s read of tampons containing harmful chemicals. Is there a brand or type of tampon that is safe to use?”  [0:40:26]

Answer

Absolutely. I've never recommended tampons. For 40 years I always told women to stop it.

“Is there a brand or type of tampon that is safe to use?” No, there is not. No, we were never meant to have foreign material, plant material, cotton, whatever in the intravaginal canal for hours and hours at a time. It's just not right. So, the mucosal lining of the vaginal canal, these cell membranes are irritated by this and microtrauma and cell membrane damage. Remember, everything in medicine is about cell damage. And so, you hurt the cell membrane, whether it's the tampon scraping the lining of your vaginal wall or the blood vessel wall, with your high sugar high carb diet. It's all about not understanding we are constructed of fat and protein. None of this is fruit and vegetable. This is all animal fat and protein, and that's what we need to eat. So, there is no safe tampon.

Question

“Do you believe Prurigo nodularis is connected to inflammatory, immune, nervous system, or gut related issues? Thank you.”  [0:41:45]

Answer

No, I'm going to have to look up what Prurigo nodularis is. It sounds like it's some kind of skin autoimmune inflammatory scenario. Most of these things are descriptive in Latin, but the treatment is really useless steroids and topical steroid creams. So, I absolutely believe in healing the gut first, always have, have for 45 years since I've been practicing medicine, and that's why I did a second doctorate in integrative medicine as well. So yeah, I think it's inflammatory, but I'm going to look that up for next time.

Question

“Hi Dr. E. I’m 77 years old and I have a large nodule on my left lobe of my thyroid. I recently had a biopsy that was inconclusive and the sample were sent out. If it is cancer, what would be the best way to begin treating it?  I also have a root canal on the left side. I’m going to have that removed even it’s not cancer. What other options are available?”  [0:43:34]

Answer

Well, I did family practice and am a general practitioner. I'm not a specialist. I suppose if you're going to say anything with a second doctor at an integrative medicine, I'm probably a functional medicine specialist. So, I'm not an oncologist. I'm not going to tell you the best way to treat thyroid cancer if it turns out to be cancer. But What I am going to say is, why did a nodule start in the first place? And there is a book out there by the name of ‘Iodine’, And the name of the author is David Brownstein. He's a family practice doctor also and he's up in Michigan. And he did a huge amount of study on iodine because Michigan is in the goiter belt, and you get these nodules in the goiter. And the proposed physiology of why you get these enlarged thyroids is because the gland is trying to produce more tissue that can filter the plasma in your body and pick up iodine out of the nutrients. And so, the more thyroid goiter tissue, the greater the possibility of getting the needed iodine. And then, when they discovered by just adding iodine in the bread and through the salt and iodine in the salt and iodine in other of the cooking and supplement programs, all the goiters went away.

Incidentally, the same for polycystic ovarian disease. Outside of it being a sugar insulin-dependent generated disease and endometriosis, the same, one of the reasons why the ovaries also get all these cysts because of iodine deficiency. There's arguments the same for fibrocystic breast disease and enlarged prostates. We all are iodine-deficient, and some of the arguments are based back on correlative studies on the Japanese that have such low breast cancer and prostate cancer and thyroid cancer, in the sense that if you erase out the exposure to Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs dropped, the iodine richly dependent glandular organisms that have such a high frequency of cancer, it is normally low in Japan because they eat so much seaweed and fish that is rich in iodine. So, one of the things one would argue and in that book Iodine by Dr. David Brownstein would be to supplement starting right away with iodine. I would also probably find a good functional doctor and do a high-dose vitamin C. I would take systemic enzymes which are designed to be taken on an empty stomach, so those enzymes get absorbed into the plasma of your blood all over and they can act like little Pac-Man and chew up fiber and deposits and excesses there, as long as the iodine is being replaced. So, that's how I would begin to start dealing with that. And find a good functional doctor. If you can get rid of a root canal, that's a good thing to do also. You’ve got to make sure your vitamin D level is high. I also would do high-dose vitamin C drips, and I would do EDTA with it. We always put EDTA with our high-dose vitamin C and we put in minerals because selenium is also very good with fighting all sorts of tumor activity. So, that's a suggestion to start with.

Question

“How do you address someone who has healed from a significant viral illness but continues to have ongoing breathing or lung-related issues well over a year afterward? Thank you.”  [0:48:21]

Answer

Well, it depends on the age, the sex, the background, their smoking history or not, their weight, their cardiovascular state of health, do they vape, do they snore, what is their blood sugar level, what is their insulin and triglyceride level, what is their vitamin D level. So, there are many other things you’ve got to look into for these prolonged fatigue and generalized shortness of breath from viral illnesses, and it's something that you just have to work with a good functional doctor on and your pulmonologist, if you have to see a specialist. So, that's a good start there. But, you know, all the things I've said, a low carb diet, get the sugars down because that depresses the immune system. I mean, one can of Coke will depress a kid's immune system for eight hours. Their white blood cells don't have the motility that they normally have for going after viruses, bacteria, and fungi. So, sugar alone, reducing that. Exercise stimulates the immune system. And anytime you can get exercising in and you're blood sugars down and your weight down, then you tend to breathe better, oxygenate better at night. Therefore, you heal better at night. The more protein you assimilate and eat, find out the blood type because A-type blood people just don't digest as well and they just do not heal as well as the other blood types in my 45 years of clinical practice. That's what I see. So, there's many many things to think about.

There is a wonderful YouTube guy, by the name of Physionic. He just got his PhD in Molecular Biology and Physics. His father is a physicist. And he has brought us, and that's what we need, we need communication from the electrophysical world to the actual biological world. And we have to understand that we're electromagnetic beings. We're batteries. The infrared light charges us up. The water molecules organize themselves into a structure, and they create a shielding of our cell membranes against invasion of toxins and materials. I mean, it's such a symphony of the orchestration of the universe by God. It's just incredible. So, yeah, we need all these beautiful things too.

Question

“Are you a fan of frequency?”  [0:52:01]

Answer

Yeah, when I did my doctorate in Integrative Medicine in the 90s. There was a book I started reading called Vibrational Medicine. and the other one was called The Body Electric. And I mean, that's where the digital frequency – I forget what you call that where you are doing the resonance of the vibration of a nutrient and then they usually would use a computer and you would measure that frequency. And if you're body energy is in frequency with that nutrient, it means it's well-received because everything is vibrationally in emotion. Think of it. If you sealed this room up that I'm in and came back a thousand years from now, nothing happened other than it's just sad. It is slowly burning up or combining with oxygen, and it would turn and collapse and turn into dust. My desk would turn into dust. I mean, we are all slowly cooking at 98.6 degrees. So, I don't think they're teaching medical students enough to help them to be ready for this explosion in AI and the actual blending of all the spheres of knowledge and science.

Question

“Would you be concerned if a 58-year-old women has a coronary artery calcium score of 135 starting hormone replacement therapy?”  [0:56:09]

Answer

Not at all. I mean, you have to look at the whole situation there. I need to know her age, her weight, her activity. But more import important than that coronary calcium score, I need to know her insulin. I need to know her blood sugar. I need to know her triglyceride level. I need to know her hemoglobin A1C. I need to know her inflammatory molecules, score of hs-CRP and sed rate, and her lifestyle, and is she taking enzymes and is she drinking enough water. And so, we can see the coronary artery calcium scores reverse and not be of a concern, and we can follow this with another one in one or two years. And usually if there's no lifestyle change, they increase by about 25%, is what I'm seeing in the literature over the course of every one or two years. So, 25% of 135, it would be on the next one if you're just gradually building up calcium. But if we it the same or only slightly u moving up or starting to come down, then we know we're reversing all that. And yes, I would definitely use natural hormones to help with repair and rejuvenate healthy cells.

Question

“The new LifeWave water unit generates water that goes beyond conventional "structured" or hydrogen-enriched water, fundamentally altering the connection angles between hydrogen and oxygen.”  [0:58:04]

Answer

Yes. Well, that's good. The science is beginning to explode wide open. And I honestly think, you know, the Lord said 120 years is what he was going to put man's life at in chapter 6 of Genesis before the flood. And so, I think we can all really vibrantly, like I'm starting a whole new project of work in my early mid-70s. I'm starting more work for me full-time. I am not planning retirement at all. I am looking positively to be here for my patients, their children, their children and their great-grandchildren. So, I intend to be around a long time for that reason because I think God is with us, and water and the study of it is an integral part of understanding this. So, I need to look into LifeWave’s water system because I'm looking at these things. So, thank you for letting me know about that.

Question

“Why are magnesium blood levels seldom measured?”  [0:59:27]

Answer

I just don't think doctors are looking biochemically physiologically at the cell membrane interactions. it's one of the last things they do, but it should be a part of every functional study all the time.
