Body Ecology Living Donna Gates

Donna is joined by Dr. Susan Brown who, in a highly informative previous episode, shared her specialist knowledge of preventing and treating osteoporosis. This time, they discuss a topic that not a lot of people know about – maintaining the right acid-alkaline in your body. 

They discuss why this is so important and how to measure your PH. Dr. Brown and Donna explain how to use the foods you eat to help yourself to maintain the right balance, in particular, the importance of magnesium and potassium. As well as covering the role stress plays in producing too much acid.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Maintaining the correct balance between acid and alkaline (PH) in our bodies is important for health.
Some areas of the body are meant to be more acidic than others e.g. the stomach is very acidic. But to be able to maintain the right balance in the right areas your body needs the right food, rest and lifestyle.
The first urine of the morning is a very good indicator of overall PH balance.
Try to stay very mineral rich during the day. You can do this using food.
Because of the hormones that are released when we are stressed we can easily become too acidic, which is why managing stress well is important.
Honey is a very powerful healing medicine.

BEST MOMENTS‘I got interested in people who knew about how to regain that natural human potential for health. ´

‘Different compartments of the body have a different PH. ´

‘The best way to handle stress is to be absolutely grateful for everything. ´

Podcast DescriptionThese are extraordinary times, with too much information, and much of it confusing. On Body Ecology Living, I interview some of the best minds – people you normally won’t have access to – to help you live your best life possible. Topics include using foods to heal, building a hardy immune system, aging well & taking care of your gut and your brain. But most of all, on clarifying the right steps to be happier, and healthier while having the energy to make a difference in your own world.

For this episode, Donna is joined by Holly Larsen a proud mom who along with her husband used food, including coconut kefir, to help their daughter Tula to recover from autism. This is an amazing episode that contains important information that everyone can benefit from learning.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


An unhealthy gut cannot extract enough nutrients from food. Without access to these nutrients, the body, including the brain, malfunctions.
The earlier you start rebuilding the gut biome the better. After age 6 it becomes harder to recover.
You need to crowd out the bad bacteria. Kefir, in particular coconut kefir, is incredibly good at doing this.

BEST MOMENTS‘Supplements are not the answer. ´

‘I feel like the story has a divine arrangement. ´

‘The whole family can drink it (kefir coconut). ´

ABOUT THE GUESTHolly Larsen is the proud mom of twin girls. One of them, Tula, was diagnosed on the autism spectrum and their family began a difficult but rewarding journey of healing after finding the Body Ecology Diet. Not only did it help their daughter recover from autism, but it helped the entire family. Holly was diagnosed with kidney disease at a very young age having her first kidney transplant at age 13, then a cancer diagnosis in 2011, then a second kidney transplant in 2020. Through Tula's experience she understands the importance of a healthy microbiome and wants to share her story of hope with others. 

She has a new blog A Journey Off The Spectrum where she details her family's journey, as well as a forum where she hopes to empower a community of people to share their insights and stories around the gut brain connection.

Donna is joined by Carol Garner-Houston, founder of Brain Harmony, an award-winning, drug-free, therapist-supported at-home program that improves cognition, nervous system function, brain health, and healing.  They discuss strengthening your brain to better handle stress and regulating the Vagus nerve, which improves organ function, rest, and digestion. All of which contribute to healing.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Stress is everywhere, we can´t control it, but we can build neurological resilience to cope with it better.
In many cases it is possible to reset a dysfunctional nervous system and improve brain function.
The Vagus nerve connects our important organs – when it functions well our overall health improves. 
The right music, sound waves and stimulus can rebalance the Vagus nerve and damp down our stress response.
Give the brain the right inputs.
Brain Harmony can be used by all family members. Some nervous pets respond positively.

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘We can strengthen the brain and the nervous system. ´

‘We are seeing the value of regulating the brain and nervous system in the healing of GI issues. ´

‘Generalized inflammation, we're able to decrease that by tapping into the Vagus nerve. ´

Donna is joined by Rowena Gates, the co-founder of Eng3. Its Nano-Vi devices are designed to address the problem of oxidative stress and cell damage, which accelerate ageing and disease development.

To work proteins must fold properly. The oxidants we are exposed to stop that from happening. Rowena explains how the Nano-Vi device can aid protein folding.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


To work properly proteins, need to fold into 3D shapes. As we age, they do this less.
Protein misfolding is believed to be one of the causes of several serious diseases including Alzheimer's and plays a role in the aging process.
Proteins are immersed in water. The Nano-Vi changes the energy state of that water, providing the environment protein needs to work properly.
No device is going to solve the issues caused by a poor diet.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It's going to support the immune system. ´

‘It´s actually working on all of the proteins in the cell.’

‘It's an upfront investment, but over time, it becomes very inexpensive to use.’

Podcast Description

These are extraordinary times, with too much information, and much of it confusing.

But most of all, on clarifying the right steps to be happier, and healthier while having the energy to make a difference in your own world.

In this episode, Donna is joined by Leo Galland, MD, a board-certified internist, and creator of the Coronavirus Guidebook. He explains the long-term impact CO-VID has on the body, in particular, the negative impact it has on ACE2 which plays a vital role in healing, and protecting the body and blood vessel health.

Leo explains how the circulatory system is impacted negatively, which in turn puts incredible stress on the brain, nerves, and other systems. He also shares the step-by-step approach he is using to enable people to fully recover from COVID.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Long-term inflammation after COVID is common. Some end up with long CoVid, while others have enough energy left to get through day-to-day life despite still being quite sick.
Both long COVID and post-infection inflammation are treatable.
The virus damages ACE2.
ACE2 helps maintain blood vessels, so circulation can be inhibited, leading to brain fog, shortness of breath etc.
The body takes in oxygen but cannot deliver it well via damaged blood vessels.
Healing the gut microbiome helps enormously, it enables the huge number of ACE2 receptors that live there to reactivate.
Which treatments work depends on the disease path.
The virus and fragments hang out mainly in the GI tract, causing inflammation and preventing absorption of amino acids, which impacts the brain, the nervous system and other body systems.
Fermented food strengthens T effector lymphocytes.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It actually takes several months for basically healthy young people to recover from all of the physiologic abnormalities created by this virus (CoVid).’

‘The gut has a major influence on long COVID.’

‘The full impact of COVID on our species - I think it's going to be a long time before we know what that is.’

In this episode, Donna is joined by Dr. David Minkoff, the co-founder of LifeWorks Wellness Center. They discuss many subjects, including whether autoimmune issues are just the body going crazy or whether something else is going on. As well as talking about the prevalence of the spike protein, blood clots, fatigue, long Co-Vid, methylene blue, and ozone.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Most people who have autoimmune issues have a leaky gut.
Years later, some people´s bodies are still getting an immune upregulation response to having had CoVid/the vaccine.
The body does not waste resources. It is having an autoimmune response for a reason.
Almost everyone can recover.
A tailored approach is essential.
Getting the blood flowing is vital.
How healthy mitochondria is can be measured.
Optimizing your health habits is the best way to protect yourself.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Leaky gut is the key to autoimmune disease.’

‘The immune system can get exhausted, just like any organ can.’

‘Ozone resets the mitochondria.’
