    7 Foods You Should Be Eating After You Reach the Age of 50

    Today, I’m going to tell you about some important foods and nutrients that should be part of a healthy diet for people over 50. Dr. David Sinclair, an expert on longevity, has researched longevity genes called sirtuins. NAD can increase sirtuins! NAD is derived from niacin. It works inside your mitochondria, converting food to energy. As we age, our NAD decreases. Many people take supplements and get injections to boost NAD. Dr. Abram Hoffer wrote a book about the diseases caused by too little niacin and how many diseases can be cured with mega doses. He’s one of the doctors who started the Orthomolecular Medicine Group, which used high doses of nutrients to create therapeutic dosages. The following foods can increase NAD and should be part of a healthy diet for people over 50: 1. Beef liver 2. Grass-fed red meat 3. Probiotic-rich foods—raw sauerkraut, yogurt 4. Parsley (celery or chamomile tea can also work) 5. Curcumin—turmeric 6. Quercetin—onions 7. Omega-3 fatty acids—wild-caught fatty fish, cod liver Sulforaphane, found in cruciferous vegetables, is also beneficial for healthy aging. Broccoli sprouts and radish sprouts are great to add to salads! Anthocyanins, found in blue and purple foods like blueberries, blackberries, and purple cabbage, are also good for anti-aging.

    Clear Respiratory Mucus: Dr. Berg on Bronchitis and Lung Congestion

    Today, I’m going to show you how to eliminate mucus in the lungs using NAC. NAC works similarly to salt by thinning mucus, but it also stops its production. It’s a potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and antiviral agent that can even break up biofilms. NAC also strengthens the cilia in the respiratory system, which helps to move mucus. NAC can be taken orally, injected, or inhaled through a nebulizer. It can be beneficial for respiratory congestion related to an infection or for diseases like COPD or cystic fibrosis. NAC is also used in hospitals as an antidote for Tylenol poisoning. NAC helps enhance brain function and has been shown to be beneficial for people with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson's, OCD, addictions, depression, and schizophrenia. NAC can improve insulin sensitivity, which helps regulate blood sugar and prevent a fatty liver. It promotes healthy blood pressure and cholesterol, and can even help with asthma. You can reduce respiratory mucus with salt if you’re dealing with an acute infection, but NAC can eliminate mucus and the inflammation behind it. Vitamin C, curcumin, probiotics, magnesium, quercetin, and vitamin D can all improve the effectiveness of NAC.

    KILL Cancer

    There are many ways that vitamin D function supports cancer prevention. Vitamin D triggers a cell to commit suicide if it’s damaged. It helps regulate cell growth and has potent anti-inflammatory properties. Vitamin D enhances almost every part of your immune system, enhances chemotherapy, and makes insulin more sensitive. It downgrades genes that cause cancer and supports the gut microbiome, which is 80% of your immune system. In a cancer cell, inflammation and a hypoxic, acidic environment block the absorption of vitamin D. Cancer also blocks the enzymes that allow you to convert inactive vitamin D to the active form. Cancer damages the liver and kidney, two significant sites of vitamin D metabolism. Around 80% of tumors produce a hormone similar to the parathyroid hormone, which extracts calcium from our bones. This is why hypercalcemia is a side effect of cancer. When the parathyroid hormone goes up, it lowers and inhibits vitamin D. Too much calcium in the blood also inhibits vitamin D. There are two systems of vitamin D: one that affects bone and calcium, and the other that supports the immune system. The bone system only requires a small amount of vitamin D every two weeks, while the other requires higher amounts daily. When dealing with cancer, consider taking around 50,000 IU of vitamin D with magnesium, vitamin K2, and zinc daily. The World Health Organization acknowledges that vitamin D has anticarcinogenic properties. Autoimmune conditions, osteoarthritis, tuberculosis, and HIV are also associated with vitamin D deficiency. Along with increasing vitamin D3, the following epigenetic factors can help with cancer prevention: 1. Magnesium 2. Omega-3 fatty acids 3. Resveratrol 4. Quercetin 5. Curcumin 6. Berberine 7. Intense exercise 8. Sulforaphane 9. Ginger 10. Fasting 11. Low-carb diet 12. Probiotics 13. Infrared light 14.

In this video, I’m going to tell you how to look younger naturally. The secret to younger-looking skin is NOT wearing sunblock every single day! UV rays make up only about 3% of the sun's wavelengths. Sixty percent of sunlight is infrared light, which has numerous health benefits. Sunblock typically only blocks UVB rays, which are essential for making vitamin D. It doesn't block the UVA rays, which are typically deemed harmful. Even UVA rays have health benefits! They can increase nitric oxide, which increases blood flow and circulation to the skin. Skin cancer is often a serious concern when being exposed to the sun. Although we’ve been decreasing sun exposure, melanomas have increased significantly. Interestingly enough, melanomas usually occur in areas that are not exposed to the sun. So, is it the sun that’s causing melanomas? If you’re using a moisturizer for younger-looking skin, check the ingredients! Many creams that claim to make you look younger are full of chemicals and actually have the opposite effect. Synthetic antioxidants, sugar, and junk food will age the skin quickly. Overwashing your face can also cause problems. Antibiotics and things that act like antibiotics, such as birth control pills, antacids, steroids, and statins, can wreak havoc on your skin. Oxytocin is a hormone that can increase stem cells for your skin. It has potent regenerative properties that also help with bonding and make people feel more social and calm. The microbe L. Reuteri can significantly increase oxytocin. Many people do not have L. Reuteri in their microbiome. When you destroy the microbiome, certain microbes never come back! Cold immersion, exercise, and facial exercises can also help you look younger.

    Worse than Sugar

    Today, we’re going to talk about the hidden dangers of starch. Some ultra-processed foods may not have sugar but are packed with synthetic starch. Many synthetic starches can potentially affect your blood sugar even more than sugar. When you repeatedly raise your blood sugar, you will eventually develop insulin resistance. Over time, your fat cells can no longer store fat, and energy is stored inside the organs or as visceral fat. Ultimately, you lose the ability to control your blood sugar levels and can develop diabetes. Starches are hidden sugar! Even products labeled sugar-free contain starches that can cause more damage than sugar. Synthetic starches do not contain protein, fat, or fiber, all of which help buffer blood sugar spikes. Consuming starches can also deplete your body of essential nutrients such as vitamin D. This can cause significant inflammation, decreasing vitamin D’s ability to work in your cells. Vitamin B1 is vital for your body to burn carbohydrates. Synthetic starches deplete vitamin B1 and zinc, leaving you tired and unable to create energy in the body. Synthetic starches feed the pathogenic microbes in your gut. They can also contribute to small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Modified corn starch is added to food as a thickener or carrier of flavors. Maltodextrin is typically added to food as a filler. It’s also sometimes added to protein powders as an energy source. This is incredibly damaging to your cells and mitochondria.

    Why Is No One Talking About This...

    Today, we’re going to take a look at the underlying cause of autoimmune disease. Your immune system has two parts: the innate immune system that you’re born with and the acquired immune system that’s created through a series of infections. Over time, the acquired immune system becomes stronger and offers protection against infection. The innate immune system is not the problem when it comes to autoimmune diseases. Autoimmune disorders typically involve problems with the T-regulatory cells or T-cells. Also called suppressor T-cells, these cells are the peacemakers of the immune system and stop the immune reaction when the job is done. Prednisone, the synthetic version of cortisol, is commonly used as a treatment for autoimmune diseases. Both prednisone and vitamin D have reduce inflammation, but Vitamin D empowers and enhances the immune system. Prednisone suppresses the innate and the acquired immune systems. Vitamin D shifts the immune system to increase the T-cells. Inflammatory TH1 and TH17 cells are usually too high when someone has an autoimmune disease. Vitamin D suppresses both of these cells, reducing inflammation. Prednisone raises your blood glucose levels while vitamin D does not. Vitamin D enhances the cells that makes insulin and helps to regulate your blood sugars. Prednisone can break down your bone, leading to osteoporosis. Vitamin D helps you absorb calcium and supports bone remineralization. The thymus gland makes T-cells. As we age, the thymus gland deteriorates and our immune systems decline. Vitamin D slows down this process, but you need larger, therapeutic doses. Vitamin D does not work without the cofactors magnesium, vitamin K2, and zinc. Dr. Coimbra of Brazil created a protocol that involves increasing vitamin D to penetrate any resistance. This lowers the parathyroid hormone which means that vitamin D levels have significantly increased.

    You've Been Lied to About This

    Did you know that the “rounding rule” allows manufacturers to hide ingredients in your food if it’s less than 500 mg per serving size? There are also over 200 different words for sugar! These misleading practices could mean you’re consuming dangerous ingredients without knowing. Incidental additives are ingredients that have a function that’s not related to texture, flavor, or a preservative. If these ingredients are less than 5% of the finished product, they don’t have to list it on the label. Maltodextrin is a common incidental ingredient. It’s a carbohydrate that acts more like sugar in the body and has a glycemic index of 180 compared to table sugar, which is only 74. Hexane is one of the most dangerous ingredients in food. Its residue is often found in products containing soy protein isolates, which are commonly added to bars, veggie burgers, and plant-based products. Hexane is a chemical solvent used to extract this protein from the soybean. The CDC classifies hexane as a neurotoxin, and the EPA considers it hazardous air pollution. However, no regulatory body measures the amount of hexane in food. Sugar-free products can often spike your blood sugar because of other hidden ingredients. Always check the ingredient list and pay attention to the following products and labels: •No added sugar •Sugar-free products with carbohydrates •Sugar-free gum •Corn syrup solids •Sugar-free, non-dairy creamers Iodine turns blue when combined with starch. Add a drop or two of iodine to a glass of water, and watch products with hidden starch turn blue or purple when you mix them in!

    The Greatest Overlooked Nutrient in Medicine

    Vitamin K2 removes calcium from your arteries and other soft tissues and puts it into the bone where it belongs. In this video, we’re going to discuss the health benefits of vitamin K2 and how it can be used to clean your arteries, prevent heart attacks, and keep you healthy! Vitamin K2 deficiency can lead to soft tissue calcification, bone corrosion, osteoporosis, and cavities. You can get vitamin K2 from the diet, or you can make it from vitamin K1 in the gut. Natto (fermented soybeans) is the food with the most vitamin K2. Eel, goose liver, chicken liver, and beef liver also contain a significant amount of vitamin K2. Butter and cheese from grass-fed animals, salami, pork chops, and fermented vegetables contain small amounts of vitamin K2. Vitamin K2 can clean your arteries naturally, yet it’s found in fatty foods that we’ve been told to avoid! Because it’s a fat-soluble vitamin, you may have trouble absorbing it if you don’t have a gallbladder or you have a bad liver. You need plenty of healthy microbes to convert vitamin K1 to vitamin K2. B. subtilis is the primary microbe responsible for this conversion. Only 30% of the population has this microbe in their gut because it’s very easily destroyed when you consume broad-spectrum antibiotics. Without B. subtilis and vitamin K2 foods, you’re at risk for developing calcification in the arteries. Antibiotics, steroids, PPIs, antacids, glyphosate from GMO foods, alcohol, junk food, liver disease, high-sugar diets, and blood thinners destroy the gut’s ability to make vitamin K2. Low-fat diets can also put you at risk for a vitamin K2 deficiency. Vitamin K2 is dependent on magnesium. Together, magnesium and vitamin K2 can help clean your arteries and remove calcium deposits from your soft tissues. There are two kinds of vitamin K2: MK4 (synthetic) and MK7 (natural). Try taking 100 mcg of MK7 vitamin K2 for every 10,000 IU of vitamin D3.
