YouTube Livestream Q&A Transcript, September 16, 2026

Question
“I am 78 and in basically good health. For about 4-5 weeks, I have had completely colorless urine. I do not drink excessive amounts of fluid, and even if I use the toilet 3-4 times a night, it is still clear, even with a recent UTI. Additionally, for the last 2 weeks, I have had diarrhea, also without illness, cramping, or pain. What does it all mean?”  [0:03:56]

Answer
Well, this whole program is not meant for me to try and diagnose over the internet or treat over YouTube. It's just to get me talking and what I'm thinking when I hear symptoms like this. I don't know who you are in particular, and if you need to, you have to see your doctor and stuff like this for it. But the things that come to mind are things like diabetes insipidus– a situation in which we start losing the ability to respond to certain hormones, like vasopressin, and we can't concentrate our urine anymore; we lose sodium. And so, we tend to pee a lot of clear urine with that. Early-onset symptoms of diabetes itself are frequent urination and thirst, and the urine is often very clear because we drink more. So, I don't know what you mean by excessive fluid. Just drinking a lot of fluid can turn your urine clear all the time. So, what I would suggest that you do, especially since you're reporting that you did have a urinary tract infection, is go back to whoever treated it and tell them about this, certainly if it continues or doesn't resolve, if this has been going on for about four weeks. And then have them check your urine. You can do a 24-hour urine collection for electrolytes, salt, and things like that. You can be tested for other things in your urine, 24-hour urine. They can check for the hormone vasopressin and various things like that. But do discuss it with your doctor. I don't know of any cure for diabetes insipidus, which is the lack of response to the normal hormone vasopressin to help concentrate your urine. So yeah, go back to the doctor who treated the urinary tract infection recently and discuss this if it certainly continues on. 

Question
“Hi Dr. E, my wife, 36 years old, had a post-meal test: ALT 22 and eGFR 116, but triglycerides hit 9.57 mmol/L (LDL uncalculated). Her doc prescribed a 40 mg statin. We want root-cause treatment first. What lifestyle/diet shifts do you advise? What 12-hr fasting labs (ApoB, HbA1c, Insulin, Thyroid, hs-CRP) should we request? Any other tests? Thanks!”  [0:07:03]

Answer
I normally don't calculate 9.57 mmol/L in my head, but I think that's a factor of 18 times higher, I believe. Anyway, I'd have to go on the computer and look up how to convert millimoles to liters. And if that's triglycerides, that looks like – if it was 9.57 times 88 – it looks like it's a high number, several hundred. So, your triglycerides after eating were very high, and we don't like it to be that high, even at least fasting; most standard lab chemistries suggest it should be under 150 fasting. I'm the one who says it should be 75 to 50 fasting. But if she wasn't fasting, it can be all over the place. So, I don't know what I would say. Why didn't they do it fasting? Because the ALT of 22 is normal. The estimated glomerular filtration rate of 116 appears normal, but the triglycerides hit this very high number. Again, I can't calculate it here right now, but I think it's in the many hundreds, which can happen, especially if you eat, like drink a chocolate malt or some very, very high fruit sugar, high fructose corn syrup meal. Anyway, he goes on to say her doctor prescribed 40 mg of a statin. Well, why didn't you get it fasting so we know the number? Well, it has to be a fasting lab, that's for sure. And I would, you know, certainly make it 12 hours, if not 14 hours. We in America, we are eating way too many carbs way too late in the day, way too often. 

And it looks like he's typing in YouTube; it says over 900 is the US unit conversion. Okay. Yeah, I figured it was very high, but that could be theoretically after you eat a very – let’s say you eat a chocolate malt shake or something like that. 

Then he goes on saying, “Was thinking to ask for another checkup after fasting, but wanted to ask your opinion first.” So, yeah, we're just guessing here. This can still be within normal physiology. So, get the fasting triglycerides, and I would have an exercise program. Definitely after eating, I would do a 10-5 minute brisk walk; even, you know, there's research showing now that pulse exercise, and what we mean by that is, let's say you finish a dinner and you just start marching your legs under the desk, like right now I'm lifting each of my knees up high. And that is, in fact, what I did after I ate my meat at 3:00, 3:30 today. I was checking some stuff on the internet; I was sitting there, and it was getting close to half an hour after eating, and so I had more work to do. So, I just started lifting my knees up, doing that, and that's helping me to burn off whatever carbohydrates may have been in my food. But walking up a staircase, maybe going up and down it two times for just 60-80 seconds, doing 10, 20 air squats because that will burn down post-eating lipid triglycerides, because the very first fat you make after eating. If you eat a lot of starch, bread, pasta, crackers, sugar, chocolate malt, ice cream, soda pop in your diet, you're going to have all this glucose flooding you, and your body's going to work very hard to reduce that, and it'll make all these little fats called triglycerides. And that's what starts heart disease. It isn't the fat that caused it initially; it's the high carbohydrate diet. So, I think they've settled that now, and the American Heart Association does agree that saturated fats are not the cause. 

So, get a fasting lab and exercise a bit; even one minute or two minutes of squats or going up and down a stair for a couple minutes, one or two minutes, is going to tremendously impact the long-term effect of whatever you ate for a meal. The timing of when you eat it. The older you get, the harder it's going to be to digest that food. Your blood type does make a difference. A's digest slower, and food lasts longer in them. So, make sure you exercise after a meal. Please don't eat late. Please lower the carbs. And then get the 12- to 14-hour fasted lipid panel, which will include your total and LDL cholesterol, HDL for exercise, and triglycerides. Then get a comprehensive chemistry, so we can look at the liver enzymes with your fasting blood sugar and your blood urea nitrogen to get an idea of your protein content. Get a fasting insulin. I would also get a hemoglobin A1C to look at the history of the last three months, how your wife's been doing with her sugars. I would also get a uric acid level, and you could get a fructosamine as well. Fructosamine is just similar to hemoglobin A1c, which is that long-term one. And I would start there. And if they're okay within the limits, then I would just get committed to watching your diet, how late you're eating, and the exercise protocol that you're doing, you know, some weight training with yourself three times a week in your large muscles.

Question
“How about a ketogenic diet?”  [0:14:50]

Answer
Well, that's what I'm talking about: getting on to something like a ketogenic diet and living it all your life because, in America, with such pressure through Instagram and your text messages and TikTok and all this pressure, social pressure to eat, eat, eat, you have to have a strategy. Otherwise, the world's going to press you through these social mechanisms to overeat carbs, and you'll be harmed medically from that, and your body will suffer. 

Question
“I routinely take a collagen powder. I have a bovine & marine-based supplement. I’m 58. Your thoughts, please.”  [0:15:44]

Answer
It depends. The world of vitamins and supplements and protein powders and health bars is out of control, as far as everyone is claiming, and AI is making all these advertisements of people who don't exist, or they're taking famous people and making their images say things that they've never said about endorsing a certain lifestyle or product, bringing up esoteric and bizarre features and factors of special nutrients in the world. I mean, the world is full of wonderful biochemical things that we need. An apple alone has tens of thousands of phytonutrients in it that we could use. You cannot be a biochemist, a food researcher, and claim that this is the one thing you need to live anti-aging. Everything is a style of living, and you have to balance that with the immune system lining of your gut has age-related damage to it the older we live, and blood type does matter to the type of immune response to what we eat because foods have chemical messages, and our immune system has to sort it as we eat it. And if that is irritating, we're going to get injuries along the lining of our gut; it'll be called leaky gut. And then that food will leak through those injuries, and then our immune system will be recruited, and we get secondary IGG antibodies. And the more wild variety that you take in, the more the risk of getting unnecessary side effects from food reactivities. Even polypharmacy- you've heard of people taking way too many drugs and taking a drug to have the side effect cured by the other drug you're taking- we are seeing similar things like that with nutrients: poly-nutrient supplementation, that, you know, people think and hear something, and they're getting marketing to them to eat or take all these items, and now the peptide, like the dot-com explosion in the end of the 90s, now we have the peptide functional medicine explosion. Everyone wants to take a peptide. We have black and gray market sales of peptides in bottles labeled for research only, and these are being sold even by high schoolers. People in high school are making tens of thousands of dollars per month doing gray sales of peptides. I mean, ladies and gentlemen, we are out of control as a people. We are too much information for sure, and we have no wise counselors out there. And the doctors today, I pray that their hearts are right, but I doubt that they are. I struggle to keep my heart focused right in the Lord and for the purposes of serving God. But the doctors today, everyone wants to be claiming they're an expert on functional medicine, peptides, longevity. And more than a quarter century ago, I founded this Tustin Longevity Center, but not just for being the most beautiful or the most muscular man. It's for health, for, you know, the service of God, let's put it that way. And money was never the prime aim. In fact, I knew going into this back a quarter century ago, owning my own business, that it was going to be a financial challenge. And now people are doing all these beauty health spas and gray-risking peptides. 

And I just had a gentleman I saw today, a long-term patient. His knee was bothering him. He wondered, because of some of these commercials, if he could get a peptide injection in his knee, along with stem cells, and he got it a few months back. And then, about two weeks afterwards, he got yellow all over, and finally it took a month, and it all went away. So, when I saw him today, it had been a couple of months since it all happened, and he was all better, and his liver enzymes were normal. But I have been seeing that, as a result, I've been experiencing anhedonia. Anhedonia is losing your happiness button, losing your sex drive, losing all emotional input because some of these GLP-1 agonists are impacting receptors in the brain- these peptides that are just shutting off your emotions. So, we do not have enough studies, ladies and gentlemen, on this. Please give your qualified physician time to do adequate studies. 

Now, I work full-time. Last month, a few weeks ago, I gave a survey to our 5 or 6 doctors here who are healthcare providers, and we are looking at the whole field of this peptide therapy. Why? Because it's coming up in our questions all the time, and we have to have a reason for why we are or are not getting involved at this time. But the number one reason is we have to get the education; we have to be aware of the source of this, and much of it is coming from China. Much of this is gray market, meaning its accountability is questionable at times for purity, sterility, getting heavy metal contaminants out of it, and identifying specific components in it that would be like HPLC and spectrophotometric assays of the contents of what's in the vial. And this is not being sent or done with this. Well, you have to get a valid pharmacy. You have to check with the FDA to make sure that this is on the list of grade 1. There are grade 2 and schedule 1, 2, and 3 products. And so, you’ve got to make sure that these things you're recommending are in allowable lawful use. So, I say all this because, you know, the diet, the things that people are trying to take to get shortcuts around, we have to be very careful and make sure that what we're doing is safe and that we can do it without concern of harm, bodily harm, because I'm seeing cases of harm already. Fortunately, at least the one with the turning yellow- and it sounds like jaundice- but it's after the fact. And so, I didn't see any screening for hepatitis antibodies on the man, but his liver enzymes were normal, so I didn't see any reason to continue to pursue it. But the Anhedonia, meaning lack of emotional response, flat affect, and weight loss with GLP-1 inhibitors- these are concerning me.

Question
“Is organic castor oil great for our bodies and health?”  [0:24:29]

Answer
In all the many decades that I have been using it or working in the world of integrative, complementary, alternative, functional medicine, I've gone through all the iterations of how they would describe us doing a holistic approach to the patient’s lifestyle, social, spiritual, emotional, nutritive, digestive, motion, exercise, sleep- all these things we've looked at. We've gone through all these names for what they called integrative medicine. Seeing castor oil be the star link between health and, you know, putting castor oil packs on the liver to promote detoxing is usually the one thing I saw most recommended. I never saw it as of any help. So, I've never been a person recommending it, and I can't endorse it necessarily. Okay. And even when I did that doctorate in integrative medicine in 1999 and 2000, for those two years, with all the people around the world coming to teach us at Capital University of Integrative Medicine, I never saw them, even in our essential oil teaching, really push castor oil. So, I'm sorry about that. 

Question
“Does it help with eye floaters and other issues?”  [0:26:02]

Answer
I would definitely say no because, you know, all I do is pretty much eat, drink, and sleep, take natural medicine, and keep up with standard medicine and the literature as best I can for family practice and the like. And the thing with floaters is oxidative stress. And you could stress yourself saying castor oil works to help detox the body with liver packs and the like; even some have taken it orally to promote bowel movements and stuff. All I'm going to say is I have been able to even remove a floater in my eye I got, I think it was five years ago, and I have to say I can't even see it now. So, what does that? Well, I went on a fast. I fasted for five days when I woke up with that floater, and that was during a tremendous, you know, at work here and patients and care and family and life and issues, tremendous, stressful time of my life. I don't think I was drinking enough water. I may have fallen off some of my nutrients, and I wasn't taking my IV chelations as much or getting good nights' sleep. So, I got inflamed. And then, you know what, I woke up with this big floater in my left eye. So, I immediately fasted, and I took my systemic enzymes. I took 5 or 6, two or three times a day for those 4 or 5 days, and that thing reduced immediately by about 80%. And then it took about a year, two years, to get rid of the rest of the little floater there. So, I'm going to say castor oil was the furthest from my mind when looking for help from it. So, chelation, the low-carb diet, fasting or intermittent restricted-time eating, exercise, low carb- all those things are far, far, far better. 

Question
“I have a rash on both my lower legs. At first thought, cellulitis; after two different antibiotics, it is worse. Dermatologist prescribed Clobetasol Propionate. Any thoughts about this medication?”  [0:28:13]

Answer
Yeah, it's doing nothing other than suppressing the immune response. It's a steroid. Any rash that is truly cleared from being an infectious bacterial skin infection or fungal infection, really, I would keep it absolutely dry. I wouldn't take showers or baths. I would keep cool. And at most, I would spray it with Argentyn silver to prevent secondary infection because wherever there is a rash, the skin has broken cracks in it, where the normal bacteria of the skin will want to crawl in. So, if you put a light spray of that Argentyn silver, it acts as an antifungal, antibacterial, and antiviral. And then I would go on a carnivore diet for 6- 8 weeks, absolute 100%. And then watch your whole immune system quiet down; stop eating by around 3:00 or 4:00 at the latest in the afternoon, drink half your weight in pounds as ounces of water, and take systemic enzymes- God's natural systemic enzymes to help, like little Pac-Man, to disinflame your body. I would do that two times, maybe three times a day on an empty stomach. If you could get a couple of days of fasting and pure water fasting to start the whole thing off, I think you'll see a difference within 48 hours right away without the Clobetasol. But again, I'm not there; I'm not seeing you. But if you're talking about they've cleared it already from infection or anything, the greatest way to heal anything, whether it's eczema, any illness, is to do a fast for a day or two for sure and eat a carnivore diet, which is the most food allergy elimination perfect diet and stay dry and cool, so you don't get your skin wet and cracked, especially hot water will harm you, and then go from there, and be seen or come see one of us, doctors, Dr. Gonzales, Dr. Lamb, pretty soon Dr. Alt will be up and ready and running to start to see patients, and we'll go from there. 

Question
“I have been wanting to buy some (castor oil). I had eye surgery; I was going blind, and also had retinal tear and floaters.”  [0:31:18]

Answer
I would say, you know, I am not your ophthalmologist, but I'll tell you, the people who have had eye surgery and issues with macular degeneration, dry to wet, and glaucoma, eye pressures, and surgeries needed, we have reversed their eye disease or at least stopped the progression with EDTA chelation and high-dose vitamin C, the very low-carb diet, not eating late, and the systemic enzymes. 

Question
“Like serrapeptase?”  [0:32:06]

Answer
Yes, absolutely. We have the Vascuzyme. When I was talking with the owner of Ortho Molecular, who took me out to dinner last night, and his team, that's the one that puts out the product Vascuzyme. And I'm telling you, he listens to us, and he's like the last of the Mohicans, and he's in Northern Wisconsin where he developed his nutraceutical, and the family and the loyal employees are there with him faithfully for decades. And they put out quality material, quality education material, and they only market to physicians. They're not out for a cheap buck. They are out for changing the way medicine is practiced by helping educate the doctor, enhance their knowledge base of the natural options they have, and their reps that it's not drugs. Their nutraceutical reps are so well-educated, ladies and gentlemen, and they help the doctor learn these things rapidly. They've helped me. I don't know everything. And that Vascuzyme has the serrapeptase in it, and I was one of the doctors that helped get that in there. So, they listen to their doctors. So, we're like the frontline privates out there fighting the war, and these are our ammunition factories, you know, making our bombs to bomb disease and build good health. So, I really support him, and he's such a moral, wonderful, strong-based man and company. Vascuzyme, and they private-label it for us as Systemic Enzymes, and the serrapeptase is in there. So, we thank Ortho Molecular so much. 

Question
“For how long and how often do you recommend rebounder exercise for bone health?”  [0:34:22]

Answer
Well, I would never stop. I have my rebounder; I was just on it yesterday, and I have the handle on it. So, whenever I go, you know, I step out in my backyard where it is, and I have a little outdoor patio with a covering over it. And you know, just even a minute- I'm telling you, ladies and gentlemen- a minute of health, what we call exercise snacks. Take a little exercise snack of lifting up something heavy for a minute and carrying it around for 60 seconds, 80 seconds, and then that tension, that isometric muscle action is going to do a world of good for you, not because I think so; it's because the research shows it, that holding down multiple muscles from your glutes and hamstrings and your back muscles and your arms and your biceps, your chest, your abdomen is held in. You have multiple systems all working together for 80 seconds. And if you did that three times a day, three minutes, you are going to have a better metabolic profile for insulin, triglycerides, blood sugars, all of this. So, walking up and down the stairs twice for 80 seconds, doing 20 squats, will make a difference. So, rebounder, absolutely. Do that for 80 seconds and do it two to three times a day; it makes a difference, but always do it all your life. 

Question
“What do you recommend for macular degeneration if currently you don’t have access to chelation? The optometrist recommended a supplement called “MacuHealth”; it says it must contain Lutein, Meso-Zeaxanthin, and Zeaxanthin.”  [0:36:18]

Answer
So, what I'm going to say about this is – see, here we think we know it all, and God bless your optometrists. Everyone now is starting to realize the great value of nutraceuticals and various polyphenols that are out there. And many of the doctors and the medical curricula are starting to do some rapid reassessment of helping train the physicians in better nutrient preventive medicine. Okay. So we thank the Lord for that. Praise God. But we're way from where we need to be. And here's where my 45 years of wisdom and experience, plus my dad in food research. God is so much smarter than us and much better, and we have no idea. I use the apple as an example: it has tens of thousands of polyphenols in it; we don't know everything that's in an apple. And so, we learn about an item, Astaxanthin, or we learn about lutein, or we learn about resveratrol, or we learn about methylene blue. We learn about these tremendous, unique, and then they do study them, and they do show wonderful impacts on oxidative stress because life is a breakdown and balance with rebuild, break down, rebuild. Just like the house, the wife – you know, what is a woman's job? Well, bless the Lord, a woman has the stamina to see the house torn apart by the children and husband and projects and paint spray and glass broken and dirt tracked in and the pet and fleas, and then she cleans it up again and rebuilds it, and then it happens again. And so, life is a cycle. Tear it down, repair, build it again, tear it down. And antioxidants and polyphenols and peptides that stimulate growth hormone and the sleep cycle and how hydrated you are and all these things matter. So, to say three things- lutein, Meso-Zeaxanthin, and Zeaxanthin- is to be so narrow. 

We have looked at, for instance, Juice Plus, which has said since 1994, when it came on the market, it's just, you know, 30 different fruits, vegetables, and berries, period. That are dehydrated, the sugar is removed, and it's done in a dark, cool, low-oxygen, and low-tension environment to preserve the tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of phytonutrients in 30 different fruits, vegetables, and berries. And on top of that, you have over 45 peer-reviewed, university-based controlled studies that show even DNA damage reduction with the use of Juice Plus to help slow aging and the breakdown of the cell and DNA structure of the nucleus. So, you're going to ask me, what's better for macular degeneration? I'm going to say Juice Plus. We have research on it. And it's going to take them, you know, 20 years to prove that MacuHealth has that same level of research and endorsement. Maybe they're all good, but I'm going to go with where the science and studies have already been done. 

Now, number two, EDTA chelation. When we talk about macular degeneration, we're talking about the little, tiny circulation in the back of the eye, the retina, the teensy weeny itsy bitsy little capillary, one red blood cell, one red blood cell to squeeze through a little pipeline. And we know that EDTA chelation improves that. That means it brings more nutrition and repair, and it takes away waste and debris better. Everyone in my practice, in my clinical experience, even with severe end-stage wet macular degeneration, has done tremendously well and improved, so that they could even preserve their driving, at least daytime driving. And I have yet to have the ophthalmologist call. They just tell my patients, " Just keep on what you're doing. Whatever you're doing, keep it up, even though they don't need to take their Avastin shots or greatly reduce them. So, you have to understand, from my point of view, the physicians have a long way to go to work with the functional physicians until we get the best of both worlds. I'm not saying don't see an ophthalmologist. Yes, I'm saying, if you need an Avastin shot to stop the abnormal capillary growth patterns, you have to do it, but at the same time, do these repairs and much better nutraceutical items that we've already proven. So, I'm going to say for that question about macular degeneration, that's what you need to do. 

Question
“What are your thoughts on Repatha to lower LDL to 70?”  [0:42:07]

Answer
For the vast majority of Americans, hypercholesterolemia of any of the types is usually not found with a heart attack. Most people have normal cholesterol levels and still have a heart attack. So, there's something else. And I'm going to tell you that something else is the high-carb diet and chronic inflammation they have from this crazy, stressful life, eating too late, too much sugar, too many food lectins, food allergies, genetic modification, and heavy metals that they're absorbing, and on and on it goes. So, EDTA chelation is by far the most important thing to do with a ketogenic diet and exercise and not eating late. Now, I love cholesterol LDL. You have to ask the doctor: is LDL a mistake? Did God make a mistake when he made LDL? What was it made for? Oh, well, it carries around, you know, all these fats inside the protein, apoprotein, LDL molecule, and such. Well, it also picks up endotoxins and protects you from infectious products and waste material in your body. So, it's a tremendous cleaner of the body. So, LDL is not all bad. In fact, I would say it's good, and what is bad is too much sugar, inactivity, lack of water, lack of enzymes, and so forth. 

Now, Repatha is a different thing. It's a monoclonal antibody that blocks; it is a p PCSK9 inhibitor. That's the title: PCSK9 inhibitor. So it blocks the activity of PCSK9, so it won't tell the cell to make LDL receptors. Therefore, you won't have as many LDL receptors produced, and therefore, your LDL will go down. Statins work on another principle. There is an HMG-CoA enzyme that it blocks, so that the production of cholesterol is reduced. But then you also get a lack of CoQ10 and other critical factors. So, why don't we stop messing with God's design, and why don't we start exercising, and why don't we stop eating late, and why don't we start eating a low-carb diet, why don't we start drinking our water, why don't we start thinking happy thoughts, thoughts of gratitude, why don't we try and get a good night's sleep and shut the screens off, you know, an hour before we go to bed. Let's do all those things first, okay. So, that's what I think of Repatha to lower LDL. 

Now, if you are in end-stage heart disease and you've had a heart attack already, there are some studies to endorse cholesterol lowering; it does work slightly as an anti-inflammatory, but I think you get far better anti-inflammatory from all of the lifestyle things, the systemic enzymes that we're talking about. So, that's my point of view, but talk with your doctor about that. 

Question
“I just read that new research shows that long-term use of melatonin is associated with heart failure, according to a preliminary study to be presented at the AMA. Are you familiar with this, and would you recommend that I cut back on the 6mg per night that I currently take?”  [0:45:41]

Answer
Yes, it's preliminary; I know what you're talking about. The AMA came out with that. 

“Are you familiar with this?” -  Yes. 

“And would you recommend that I cut back on the 6 mg per night that I currently take?” - No, not at all. Go on YouTube and look up Professor Russell Reiter, Dr. Russel Reiter. He has been using two 200, 300 mg of melatonin every night. He's still actively working and doing research, and he's been taking these hundreds of milligrams of melatonin, and many on his team for decades 30, 40 years- and they don't have heart disease, and that was not an established cause-and-effect relationship; it's a correlation. So, it's scare tactics. So, no, I would say, blow it off. They need to come up with something far more rigorous and far more biochemically identifiable for causation than the association one that they have, and this is preliminary. So, it comes and it ends with saying, therefore, we should have more studies to look into this. It's ridiculous. 

Question
“Hi Dr E., my friend had an endoscopy. She was diagnosed with a small hiatal hernia and Hill Grade III gastroesophageal flap. She suffers from constant heartburn, blood type O. She’s a female, 54, overall healthy. How would you approach this condition, and what could have caused Hill Grade III? Thank you.”  [0:47:24]

Answer
Well, she's probably had children. She probably had the juncture stretched with the big babies in there and then trying to eat and then all that burping up. And if she's an O-type blood, they make more acid than A-type, AB, or B-type blood. And so, the stretching and the acid reflux, and we are eating too late, we snack too late, we lie down on a flat bed. Tell her to elevate the head of her bed 20 degrees, and tell her to get some Ortho Molecular GlutaShield powder. Give it to her as a birthday gift or a Christmas present or a girlfriend present, and tell her to take a scoop of it in water and chuck it down in the morning and evening to heal this, and to stop eating at 4:00 in the afternoon, and watch her symptoms go away. Now, that doesn't mean that will heal the hernia, the tear, and the stretch. It's like a stretch mark; it's already there, but it'll stop the tendency of the acid to reflux back up so easily. And of course, follow up with her doctor. 

Question
“What can someone do for constipation when on fluid restriction for heart failure?”  [0:49:02]

Answer
Well, I would have them take magnesium and vitamin C to bowel tolerance, which means I would take anywhere from 4 grams of vitamin C, a scoop of Vitality C we have, or take 3 or 4 capsules of the Buffered C we have, and take that with the magnesium called OptiMag Neuro, a scoop of that in a small amount of water, and do that once, twice, or three times a day, and they'll have a bowel movement. And tell them to walk and exercise. 

Question
“My granddaughter, 3 years old, is having a reaction, a rash on the trunk of her body, which looks like Varicella or chickenpox exactly 3 weeks after having her vaccine. Her doctor won’t admit it and instead calls it an infection and prescribed topical antibiotics. What do you recommend? Don’t antibiotics reduce your immunity to fight it?”  [0:49:53]

Answer
Well, it is known that the Varicella vaccine can show up with varicella chickenpox as well, okay. So, yes, it can show up, just like the measles vaccine can show up with measles in the crowd. And so, yes, that's probably what it is. Now, do you treat it when you have chickenpox? I had chickenpox; I wasn't treated with an antibiotic. I was given more vitamin C, stayed dry and clean and cool, and the little pox dried up and scabbed over and went away, and I got some scars from that. The other thing is, you could use that Argentyn silver spray on them, just if they are still raw or open. Very safe to spray. It's an antibacterial/antiviral on top of it. But for vitamin D for the child, you can get vitamin D drops. Usually there's 1000 IU per drop, and you can give them one or two drops every day and give them extra vitamin C. Spray the rash, and that should be very, very good. But of course, follow up with the pediatrician as usual, but that's the general way I would approach it. 

Question
Regarding the chickenpox vaccine, is this reaction contagious to me at 65? Could it be shingles for me?”  [0:51:532]

Answer
The answer is yeah. Yeah, just like the kids who get their vaccines for measles, they can go to Disneyland, and they can spread the measles. It's a live virus, and they did, and that was the cause of the measles scare a few years back at Disney. So, yes, you can get chickenpox from these rashes from the vaccine the child got. 

Question
“Is carnivore diet safe for someone with elevated liver enzymes from fatty liver disease?”  [0:52:38]

Answer
Yes, because it's going to ultimately reduce the amount of sugar, high fructose corn syrup, that's associated with putting a strain on the liver for detoxing all that sugar. And yeah, it should be just fine. 

Question
“Oxidative stress.”  [0:53:14]

Answer
Yeah, oxidative stress is everywhere, and we have to have some. Just like you have to have a fire on your stovetop to cook your food, God knows we have to have fire in our body to create and drive some reactions. But He's created unique minerals and methylated B vitamins to 3D-dimensionally orient things, so when a fatty acid comes to this plate or an amino acid, that'll come to this unique formation; it'll kind of get in like a puzzle, and clink, make it without heat. So, you have to have various actions take place; you're going to have metabolism generate free radicals, but you have to have a repair mechanism. That's why we need a good night's sleep; that's why we need water; that's why we need to reduce the stress; that's why we need to be thankful to God and have a resuscitation, so to speak, of telling God, thank you for this and thank you for that and thank you for this, and just start letting that flood your body, what I'm thankful for, and then suddenly you get a thousand things in your brain of what you should be thankful for and start relaxing and healing. Yeah. Get that oxidative stress under control. 

Question
“Good evening, I have considered EDTA suppositories for heavy metal detoxification. What is the length of treatment protocol using that method?”  [0:54:51]

Answer
It depends on how good the suppository is. If you just go to a pharmacy and have the compounding pharmacist put calcium disodium EDTA into a suppository. Let's say they put in 1000 mg; 1,500 mg is what we did; 750 mg if it's a child; 375 mg. But if it's just cocoa butter, a large part of that EDTA is not going to get absorbed. It'll get pooped out. Now, some will get absorbed. The suppository matrix that we made years ago was a phospholipid base, and it was tremendously well-absorbed- so well-absorbed, there wasn't a known suppository medication in the Pharmacopeia of the United States of America or worldwide that had better transrectal delivery of a medication, whether it would be Tylenol or other things that we used to put in suppository form to deliver medications when you couldn't take it orally. So, our EDTA suppositories that we worked on and generated, I speak to and I published on, with human beings and animal studies and did the pharmacokinetics, these suppositories were 1,500 mg, and we saw a biphasic through the gut reabsorption cycle, and we got tremendous percentage of it absorbed, so that we said about three suppositories a week would equal one IV, if that's the situation, and 30 IVs is usually a good treatment for a good detoxing of heavy metal broad spectrum, then we would say, you would need about 90 suppositories to get 30 equivalent IVs. I think if you're going to have it compounded and they're just going to put it into a standard suppository, like cocoa butter or something or glycerin, it's going to take at least 180 suppositories, or maybe 270, over the course of a year or two. But you'll get benefit from it. It will happen. 

Question
“Hi Dr E. Do you have any thoughts about the supplement Urolithin A? I have heard it is valuable for longevity and immunity improvement.”  [0:57:34]

Answer
Yes. And again, that goes down the whole road of now yet another item is showing up on the list of dozens and dozens of items that are supposedly the cure to aging, I'll never die supplements. And I'm not making fun of it. It's involved in what we've been talking about for decades, which is cardiolipin, which is a phospholipid in the cell membrane for the structure of the cell membrane. And I've been talking about this for decades. So, yes, it is valuable. But it's not the be-all and end-all. Just eat a quarter cup of organic walnuts. I eat mine. So, I have my walnuts. I'll take a handful almost every day. But if you get about a quarter cup three times a week, you're probably going to get as much as you would get from a prescription bottle of Urolithin A. So, I just want to reassure you that God is good, and God is getting these wonderful things in us. And yes, we're living in a nutritively challenged food system due to industrialized farming. May the Lord get us back to family farms, and may he get us back to him and his word, and may we honor him and then raise up God-fearing, people-loving people of all sex, faith, and politics. May we love and treat everyone because God created everything. And then we'll eat things like walnuts and get our Urolithin A. We'll eat good meat and home-grown, small-farm, family-raised things. We'll have more peace and be an example of – remember, we're supposed to be God's ambassadors, and we were to be known by the love we had one for another. And so, great patience, great long-suffering. For God so loved the world, he sent his only begotten son. And while we were yet sinners and rebellious, God sent his son. So, I'm just so overwhelmed repeating that to myself every day I start work; no matter who I see, God forgave me too, and I'm a pretty stinky sinner myself. So, let us have that love one for another.
