[00:00:00] Welcome back to another episode of superhuman radio. Today is Wednesday, which means the first half of the show will be signs for humans with my co-host. Dr. Jeff golini in just a moment. We're going to be talking about a new product that dr. Jeff has worked years on and it has come to fruition.
[00:00:52] It's being sold now and it's really legitimately a fat burner like none you've ever seen before in [00:01:00] fact. It's such a novel compound that it carries two patents that's telling you something and you won't get anywhere else and we'll talk about that a little bit later in the show going to be joined by Doctor David Friedman to talk about his new book food insanity and I get it so many of us are just confused.
[00:01:19] How should I eat? What should I eat? I can't eat this. I can't eat that and it gets crazy after a while. So we'll be talking to him about his new book a little bit later in the show. Of course, our title sponsor is All American Pharmaceuticals and EFX Sports. And right now you get six of their top-selling products absolutely free by going to superhuman radio dotnet and clicking the EFX Sports Banner ad putting your name and address and.
[00:01:43] You will pay five dollars and change for shipping but that truly the shipping cost you get a box full of fun stuff. In fact, I'll ask. Dr. Jeff in a minute. I believe there's some of this fat burner in there. So take advantage of that because dr. Jeff believes that no one should buy anything until they've tried [00:02:00] it first and he puts his money where his mouth is.
[00:02:03] Whoa, this is science for humans with dr. Jeff golini. Dr. Jay. Is there some lies. I'm five in the. A sample packages that go out. You know what I got to check and see if those are being included. I'm going to look right now while we're talking I'm going to go to the my website and click to your website.
[00:02:24] So anyway, so the so let's talk about this is this is an interesting compound lies IM5 it it's been years in production. Right? I mean, this is something you've been working on for a long time. Most people just find the study by a compound put it in capsules and sell it to people this is this is patented to his two patents on it and it's been in the in the in the hopper of design for a long time.
[00:02:48] It has you know, I actually got the idea back when I was bodybuilding. You know, I had a couple little tricks that I used to do always came and [00:03:00] shape. That was one thing that you never found me whether it was a guest posing appearance or a contest that I was ever not shredded. So this thing. Had evolved and you know over the years is I gained a little more Revenue to be able to do the research, you know, I was able to figure out how to put it together so that it actually would work.
[00:03:22] So I mean, you know, we're talking quite a few years but really more full-time the last you know, 10 12 years. Interesting. Okay, so so they took about it took about six years just for the patent to be issued because I was battling with all the drug companies because of the research that we had done on it really so theoretically distant this theoretically could actually well.
[00:03:52] Okay. I don't want to get there. So the active ingredient. Which is the patented [00:04:00] ingredient in this product is Tri methyl ammonium methyl lysine methionine. Wow. Yeah Big O mouthful of words. Basically, it's you know, what a nutshell. It's what I call a lipo lytic compound or a try methylated choline compound.
[00:04:20] Okay. Okay, and why and why does that how does that influence? Fat loss. Obviously the information on the website talks about how this product makes fat or the substrate of fat in the body more available to be used as energy it helps to mobilize it but also seems to shift the body into preferring using it.
[00:04:45] Is that correct? Yeah, it's you know kind of my water down the way that I describe it is it literally works like liquid Drano on a clogged drain? It will get in break [00:05:00] up body fat and deposited into the bloodstream. So that your body can burn it for energy what people sometimes forget is that body fat is are reserved energy Supply.
[00:05:13] We're always looking at ways to reduce our body fat, but sometimes we don't realize what it's there for. So if you can tap into getting your body to get that back into the bloodstream and that's kind of what the whole keto thing was all about is trying to get the body to burn ketones. Which means again, we've got to get the fat somehow broken back up.
[00:05:35] Andre the blood President right and into the bloodstream, so that's what I had been working on for a long time. And that's really what this does. It's a very complex structure. Luckily because I went more from the compound that idea that is choline FDA accepted it as a dietary supplement versus a new drug.
[00:05:58] It could have went that [00:06:00] route. But that's what I was going to have it in a way that I was going to ask you that because it sounds like. You could have made this a pharmaceutical fat loss product. It could have been you know, because one of the problems when you're doing research is you don't know what is going to happen.
[00:06:19] So. I started out with my pre clinical trials where we did a very high-end rat study because again before we can experiment on humans, we have to prove it safe. So once I finished all the toxicology studies, I did a 96. Animal study where we literally gave them cholesterol. We wanted to see what would happen and lo and behold we actually broke up that dietary cholesterol and these rats were on high calorie diet.
[00:06:54] We're able to lower their cholesterol now, I was just wanting to see what would happen to their body fat. All right, you [00:07:00] know that the doctor over the study said well, hey, let's inject them with cholesterol to because I'm curious. Okay, fine. Well, we lowered LDL and we maintain HDL and I did it and you did it in a different way than say a Statin drug, cholestatic do absolutely liver which hurts deliver.
[00:07:20] Yeah. We did. We didn't we didn't suppress the body's production of that. We did it from a different way. Now at that point. We didn't know what was going on, but I then went on to human trials I was able to get an i BR or. Review board authorization to try it on humans and we had the same type of results.
[00:07:42] You know, when I went to the patent board obviously here is this research. I'm talking about cholesterol and as they started to review and publish. You know here comes the drug companies. They don't want anything that's going to stop in on the Staten. So the first thing they [00:08:00] said is why this is a drug.
[00:08:01] He's talking about cholesterol. So it there's no natural thing that can lower cholesterol so they came back and I mean I thought this for years going. Well. Yes, I mean a drug is in that philately what reason why it's fiber then shown to lower cholesterol. So what are they going to make Fiber come off the market or make it a drug.
[00:08:22] But this is the problem now with the patent offices. You have all these drug people sitting on the board. So, you know, there's a there's a reason why there's not a there's a reason why there isn't a cure for cancer for diabetes. There's a reason why there are. We don't get better gas mileage in our cars.
[00:08:42] There's reasons behind that so it took years and I spent a lot of money Carl on this to be able to get the patent and the first couple issued. We're still pending in some parts of Europe. I think Canada just issued and I the USA issued. Earlier this year. [00:09:00] So it was a long hard Road, you know again going back and convincing that look, you know, this is what I'm doing.
[00:09:06] I don't want it to be a drug. I don't want to limit the access to people. I don't want it to be, you know, five hundred dollars a bottle and everybody's making money and would rake in the insurance company, you know, this is designed for everybody to have access to and at an affordable price. So I stuck with that and you know, finally I say I.
[00:09:28] Because when you're dealing with patents, you have to convince them, you know, you don't have to convince them that you created something they can see that but you got to convince them that they need to issue this as a non drug or over the counter because it's safe, right? And so let's talk. Let's just kind of look at this the list of things that are in here.
[00:09:49] Maybe you can explain some of this energy that's going on here. So you have this unique compound trimethylammonium methyl glycine methionine, [00:10:00] which is your patented product first of all, but then it's combined with some other interesting things. Most notably niacin and folic acid. What role do they play?
[00:10:11] Will niacin what? Well, no, you tell me what is what role does nice? Yeah. So, you know, we would think that okay niacin is blood flow and folic acid is this but they actually contribute those are those are donors that are really important to the structure. Now if this were a drug we wouldn't have to list out.
[00:10:32] The percentage of niacin and folic acid because of drug just gives the chemical name but because it's an over-the-counter all vitamins have to be listed out. So that's why you'll see a percent daily value as part of that compound but they're part of that whole methylation process and what people got to remember is that you know genes are switched on and off.
[00:10:55] Off by this, you know methylation or demethylation. This [00:11:00] is the way that the cells communicate. So it's very important part of the way that this item works is to have these specific donors helping with that process. So that's why the niacin and the folate are part of the compound. So they actually support the primary molecule two primary compound in here.
[00:11:21] Then you also have taurine you have a little bit of caffeine l-tyrosine. Theobromine beta sister all complex and cayenne pepper and white willow bark. I can see how they all work together to produce and those would probably be focused in energy, right they are so here's the thing that happened in my clinical trials the human studies we did for two months.
[00:11:46] So we're checking blood every week the first 30 days 100% of the people's cholesterol went up. Now people were freaking out. We'll wait a minute. I thought this was supposed to lower [00:12:00] and you know, we had to sit down to our medical team and go look. You were redepositing fat back into the system.
[00:12:08] Your blood cholesterol level is going to go up the same way after you have digestive very fatty meal. You're going to have a higher cholesterol, but the same thing happens on statin drugs. They don't work in a week or two. They take several months to work. Be patient. Let us get to the month too and Watch What Happens so that was one of the interesting things that that we did that we did.
[00:12:34] And from that standpoint so knowing that we have body fat being broken up put into the bloodstream. This product was designed that you do absolutely nothing and you're able to lose fat now when I say absolutely nothing. I'm really looking at a couch potato who is overweight who's not going to change their diet.
[00:12:55] This is what this product is what they're not go but they're not going to increase [00:13:00] eating. This is I gotta I gotta say something there's. A host of great comments right by valid users on the lies. I'm five-page. There's 12 reviews of the 12 reviews. That is one verify buyer. Who says that he used the whole bottle.
[00:13:22] He didn't notice any energy boost. He didn't know but then he goes on to say I work out one and a half hours a day with another 60 minutes of cardio a day and I did not lose any weight. So this guy. Well gal whoever this person is basically putting in two and a half hours a day of training. We something's wrong.
[00:13:43] Yes. Well this death not only is this something wrong but we see this especially in women. I'm willing to bet that this was a woman we see this in women who hooked up with the wrong personal trainers and the personal trainer goes you're not losing weight. We need to do another half hour cardio when the reality is they have [00:14:00] to back off because their body their metabolism is shutting down to try to protect body.
[00:14:05] Yep. So here's an interesting thing because I did reach out to that person because I had in my human trials I had and I'll give you a specific again gal and. We did them at the end of the year. So it was a bad time to do weight loss, you know during the holidays, but I wanted to do it. So this particular gal was overweight approximately 200 pounds and I can talk in generalities.
[00:14:31] I'm not writing names writing right went through the holidays and reported back and said I didn't lose anything and I said, okay, how much did you start at? How much are we January 1 200? I know. Okay. What do what typically happens during the holidays? Well after I went up to 220 and the year before I gained like 35 pounds.
[00:14:56] Well, why because I like to eat. Did you eat the same this [00:15:00] holiday? Yeah. I did. You didn't gain any weight. Do you not get it? It was working worth Life Works. And the thing with this other person is they were having a very difficult time and an hour and a half really wasn't an hour and a half it was you know, oh, yeah, I'm doing an hour and a half a day.
[00:15:20] Really? Well, you know I walk at work and you know, I did do cardio this week, but I only did it one day because I was busy I didn't make it to the gym. So a lot of times you know out of frustration people are looking for a miracle, but they aren't putting the time in. Yeah, you know, does this work?
[00:15:39] Yeah, I mean, yeah, don't take it don't take it and then eat more than you normally do and expect to lose weight. It's not going to make up first stupid. Decision, you know what I mean? But no, you'll find like this person. They didn't gain any weight. They have been on a weight gaining cycle, even though they're trying to lose weight.
[00:15:57] Right and I've seen people at our gym [00:16:00] that I mean, they'll I'll come in the morning. They're doing cardio. I'll come back at night to drop some off. They're still doing cardio. I'm like today where they in here 8 hours. And their body doesn't change so you know that something else their diet their lifestyle their metabolism.
[00:16:17] Something is all screwed up, you know, and one of the things I'm trying to promote with this lies I am is I'm trying to get people's attention going look you do absolutely nothing. It's going to work but let's look at creating a healthy lifestyle. Do you want to live longer, you know? Somebody I heard a preacher on the radio last night.
[00:16:37] Somebody said hey, you know does the Bible say not to smoke if you're a Christian and overeat and the guys like no you can I guess you just get to heaven quicker. So my point is you could you could be unhealthy, but you're going to die earlier, you know, I mean, so it's all about [00:17:00] creating a healthier lifestyle in the.
[00:17:02] Run and we all want that extra 10 or 15 percent of fat loss. And that's all these products are supposed to do. They're not going to they're not going to make up for a really bad lifestyle. And if you're overeating yeah, you won't gain any weight, but you're not going to lose any weight, but that's not what you want.
[00:17:18] You want to lose body fat. And so, you know, what a product that's going to give you the nudge that you're good. I want to talk about. The energy and focus component of this because I see some really interesting compounds in here. Yeah, the old bromine white willow bark, which is basically where aspirin came from we know that back in the day ephedrine caffeine and aspirin was like heavy magic fat burner.
[00:17:44] You have two of those components in here basic. Let's talk about that when we come back. Okay? Okay, and people can go to http://EFXSports.com and look for Lyzme 5 and I think dr. [00:18:00] Jeff's going to tell you how you get some samples to so stay tuned. We'll be right back. Welcome back.
[00:18:07] We're talking about EFX Sports and All American Pharmaceuticals New fat burner all of the. All of the reviews on it or Stellar five star reviews. These are all verified owners people who actually bought the product not trolls and slimers and stuff like that and except for one person who sounds to me like they just don't know what they're doing.
[00:18:33] To be honest with you. Everybody says the same thing. I lost body weight and my focus and workouts intensity increased and so like I'm like, I get it. It's a fat burner. But what else is in there? That could be improving? Well, there's some there's some caffeine in there. There's taurine. We know taurine improves heart function and if your heart is able to pump [00:19:00] harder and faster, you don't get tired as fast there's l-tyrosine which has been known to improve function of focus.
[00:19:08] Theobromine take the Jitters away from stimulants. So if you if you have some caffeine in there, you will be less prone to getting the Jitters. If you have theobromine in there because deal bromine kind of balances at it out. I'm not sure maybe you can teach me what beta site or sterile complex does.
[00:19:30] So that is something I discovered why didn't Discover it, but I found it. It comes from Plants. It's a phytosterol that actually will similar to a fiber it will attach to fat. And help pass it through so you don't absorb it by beta-sitosterol. Keep you out of the door being fat this thing interesting.
[00:19:54] Yeah. It's really interesting. I did a research study that actually have published on [00:20:00] using beta sitosterol and beat fiber. And very cool stuff. So I want again. I wanted to put some synergistic compounds Now lies. I'm five works for itself. But the problem is most people aren't patient enough to wait, you know, two months three months, which is what you have to do on a Statin drug.
[00:20:20] So I needed to put a few things in there that again would help with some immediate everybody's looking for energy and again having this extra cholesterol fat in the bloodstream, you know, kicking the metabolism up. I found the way years ago, you know using the caffeine aspirin mix right? I like putting a little ginger in there because it's good for digestion and sometimes people get an upset stomach from different things.
[00:20:50] And this is a way to help calm the stomach in my early trials, you know, some of the raw lies. I'm I was giving people a couple people, you know had [00:21:00] a little bit of stomach discomfort. So again as I figured out how to. Get it into a capsule. I looked at all the things that I knew that would eliminate those minor little side effects that may hinder somebody from really getting the results because they don't like that, you know, and then you've got to do you do get some good energy.
[00:21:20] Well cayenne pepper. You've got both the powder of the fruit that is known to increase thermogenesis, you know, and focus. I love creating a little bit of heat. Yeah. And again, it worked really well with the lies. I'm so these weren't things that you know, I just said let's just throw it in there to make it look good.
[00:21:45] I mean this is why it took so long in so many years trying these different combinations and guess who was the guinea pig? Who me? Oh really? Yeah. I I was initially guinea pig because I couldn't wait to get [00:22:00] board approval and you know to go through all these trials so I mean, I would go down. I utilize my homeopathic office because I didn't have to you know deal with the whole doctor thing, right?
[00:22:14] Oh, they knew I was doing this trial. They were helping me. So I would go down there I would do blood right there. I would do static body fat. I would do calipers and they help me to monitor my lean muscle mass and my weight loss. And I wasn't changing my diet. I wasn't doing anything different other than trying different combinations until I got the right things that really gave the biggest bang for the buck.
[00:22:42] And that's how the formulation ended up being and again why it took so long. I mean it was a long process of elimination and trying things doing side clinical research on beta-sitosterol with some Fiber doing. You know research just on [00:23:00] Liza and by itself, you know my research on how to stimulate the central nervous system without Jitters.
[00:23:07] So you don't take this you don't get that that real bad up the up right and then you don't crash you. Don't get the shakes, you know, you don't have to do it. With food, I mean it really is an interesting project. You said something when we were going live. You said something about people may be able to get some samples of this problem.
[00:23:29] Yeah. So I wasn't going to do samples because obviously you cannot take one or two days when I lose weight, right? So my first disclaimer is it's impossible. But you know, I had basically put my foot in my mouth by saying don't buy anything before you try it. So people call me on and said hey, dr.
[00:23:47] Jeff. Why should we buy this what I'll try again? I'm like, you know what? You're absolutely right so I have Lola's 6K. Bottles [00:24:00] two days worth enough for you to see that you're not going to get the Jitters you're going to feel better. So for today, they can email me directly at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or just go to social media Facebook Instagram. If you can't remember the email and say Hey, I want to try some of that new fat burner and a now. Give you my email address where you can send me an email and it's absolutely free. There's no shipping. There's no nothing.
[00:24:34] I'm going to give you a little brochure that tells you about it and I'll give you a you know, four days five days worth. You got a couple little sample bottles enough for you to see if you like it. Right? Right. Does it work its patented it does work, but again, You know what? I say nobody thing but I know but and that's so generous because most people would not give anything away because you know, there's a lot of people out there who have no interest in really [00:25:00] buying it, but they'll take a freebie.
[00:25:02] We see that at the Arnold and the Olympia every year mean the people that don't want to buy anything but man they'll just take everything you got for free. I had one guy few months ago when we first started releasing lives. I'm and he said, Dr. Jeff, you're a liar. And I said what do you mean the liar?
[00:25:23] He goes you're trying to introduce this product and you're not letting people buy it. So that was kind of what really got me thinking. Yeah, you are right. I didn't lie, but I didn't think people wanted samples of a fat burner. Yeah, I don't for you and like you said a fat burner, you got to take four months to see the actual results.
[00:25:41] But the Pre-Workout Focus part of it, they'll probably recognize right away. They do, you know, and I'm going to be including here very soon. It'll be in a box and they'll be like a little insert where I'm going to give you some guidance on changing your lifestyle. I'm going to give you a little bit of training advice.
[00:25:59] I'm [00:26:00] going to give you a little bit of meal prep advice. So again, you know, you should be in for the Long Haul and not just the got to look good in 6 weeks for a wedding. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely guy. I'm with you on that. This is very generous of you. And I'm so excited about this product. I'm actually going to order a bottle when we get off the air today because I need I need I can use the help myself.
[00:26:20] Tell you the truth. Well, it's Unique for everybody and there's nothing like it. So now you'll go and live here in a couple minutes on Facebook. What do you what's your discussion? Yeah, so I go live on Facebook and then you know, it also turns into podcast today. I'm going to talk about online health coaches.

[00:27:24] They're all right. We'll be right back with more superhuman radio stay tuned. Welcome back. You know over the past 13 years and the show will be 13 years old the third week of November. We have done so many different shows about specific topics where we thought we knew then we found out we didn't know then we learn something new then we found that that wasn't right and it's because.
[00:27:54] This information about health longevity diet contribution to [00:28:00] these is changing this landscape changes. We thought we had it answered with the paleo diet. But the reality is you don't have to go back to Paleolithic times to understand your. Genetic predisposition to eating certain foods. You just have to go back maybe five six eight hundred years, maybe because evolution is still happening.
[00:28:23] It's happening right now selection pressure is changing our species right now right before our eyes, we won't see it. But future Generations will and whenever we talk about diet inevitably I as the host of the show come away feeling like. Geez, what can I eat? And I know many of us feel that way.
[00:28:46] My next guest has written a book specifically about this and his name is dr. David Friedman. How you doing? Dr. Friedman doing great. If I was any better, I'd be twins. There you go. I like that one. The book is called food and Sanity [00:29:00] and really never before in the history of humankind. I've gone back and written and read.
[00:29:07] Biblical scripture just to understand what the nature of diet was back. Then we had vegans back then too, by the way, but never I think in the recorded history of humankind, have we become so out of touch with what we are genetically designed to eat thanks to marketing talk about this. Book. What made you write this book?
[00:29:32] Where did it start? Well, I wrote food sanity after the 18 years of frustration kind of like you that your enduring, you know is an expert and you're interviewing like I did hundreds of scientists and doctors and I interviewed best-selling authors and my goal was is to share information to help my audience reach their Optimal Health, but unfortunately, that's not what happened instead every guest would contradict the previous expert leaving everybody including me.
[00:29:56] More confused and as you mentioned you got the vegan the Paleo [00:30:00] Mediterranean that he got gluten-free low-carb diet the opinions really their different as night and day and I remember as you probably do oatmeal used to help balance blood sugar. Remember those days now, we're told he avoid grains because they spiked her blood sugar coffee used to be healthy.
[00:30:15] Now, it's actually used to be unhealthy and now it's healthy, but I think this week maybe it is unhealthy. I can't keep up on the latest media and today we're told you know, hey coffee prevents disease eggs. Remember when they used to call. High cholesterol. Yeah, now research shows egg contain lecithin which helps lower cholesterol.
[00:30:31] So after growing frustrated with all the conflicting opinions, I wrote food sanity, it breaks through all the facts feds and fiction and finally answers the question. What are we supposed to eat? You know, what part of the problem is? Dr. Friedman and I have a funny feeling that that you're going to relate to this statement.
[00:30:47] The problem is that the government and that portion of the. Responsible for setting food policy and why the government has any business setting food policy is beyond me. But with that being said [00:31:00] most of the people want a simple answer just tell me what to eat but it's much more complex than that, but it works perfectly with authoritarian organizations who believe that people are too stupid to care for themselves.
[00:31:15] So we can't give them all this information, but you do you actually dissect a lot of these. Diets and allow people to kind of make some decisions on their own, you know case in point you talk about you know fiber is good fiber is bad, but when we start to look at life. From an evolutionary perspective we can actually see why certain things make sense and why certain things don't make sense in the diet.
[00:31:40] Have you noticed that from when you apply the The evolutionary template over diet? Yeah, you know and you bring up a good point is there's a lot of science out there but I use an approach called common science meets Common Sense approach to figuring out the culinary [00:32:00] conundrum. Unfortunately, we can't solely rely on scientific studies because they can change sometimes weekly.
[00:32:05] Plus many of them are biased and I spell that “buy us’d” out meaning they're bought and paid for so in the book. I kind of show you how to avoid the paid for on reliable scientific studies tap into your instincts trust your gut instead of relying on what you here next week in the media. And then we explore the biology of the body that hasn't changed.
[00:32:24] We can really use that as a gauge point and see what were designed to eat. So when you combine these three things science instincts and biology you basically have a foolproof blueprint to show you what you should and. Eating it's kind of like a tricycle without three wheels. They can't function.
[00:32:39] So my three real process is really what's missing in these other diet books. I've been reading what about the paleo diet? What are your thoughts and opinions on that? You know, there's fewer subjects raise more controversy and heated opinions than, you know food politics. You've got the plant-based and they Paleo debate is really similar to a Republicans versus Democrats.
[00:32:59] Yeah, [00:33:00] and you know what? It's funny you say that because. Diet has taken on a whole new meaning it's Dogma. Now, if you tell me I'm eating wrong. You may as well just insult my God because we're going to go by so true, you know, and you know, while the plant-based diets they say, you know, hey stay away from me.
[00:33:16] It's the secret to Optimal Health and Longevity. And then the Paleo says no we need to eat meat like our caveman ancestors did so in food Sanitation. I really dive into both and there's some good aspects of the paleo diet. But one thing that I'm not a fan of his they say, hey, we need eat beef like cavemen and you know cavemen you've seen in their portray these big strong Savage Hunters able to stab and kill mammoth-sized animals and carry their dead carcass over their shoulders, but that's how cartoons and movies portray them.
[00:33:42] But it's far from the truth cavemen were actually short and stocky. In fact, they weren't much taller than five feet tall. They weigh 271 pounds and the size of their body was. Missionary adaptation to the cold weather since extra fat Consolidated heat. So according to the National Institute of Health [00:34:00] that's considered clinically obese a short obese man.
[00:34:03] Certainly didn't have the speed in the endurance. It would take to run fast enough to hunt and kill a mammoth lion or bear. Oh my. Cavemen were not the Predator Hunters they've been portrayed to be in my book. I sure evidence showing they were the hunted They Carried weapons for defense and using forensic analysis science actually shows caveman, eight primarily plant-based, but forget all the science.
[00:34:25] Look at Common Sense what's easier to reach what's around you the plants the fruits the vegetables that are around you are risk your life trying to go catch a lion. I'd shoot. I shoot for what's around me. So they were opportunist. If there wasn't a lot of plants then they would have to go after animals just like chimpanzees which by the way if you want to eat like, you know, that's closest to our DNA were 1.6 percent difference between chimpanzees DNA and ours.
[00:34:49] We both have fingers thumbs fingernails similar reproductive system 32 teeth with the only species that can use tools chimpanzees diet is about 95% plant-based [00:35:00] 5%. Insect eggs and baby animals, but only if they don't have plants available, so where's closely like that? So I think we're the same. I think we should eat primarily plant-based but you know, there are some animals is good for us, but not flip.
[00:35:14] It don't do 80% animal fat and then 20% vegetables. That's not the way our ancestors ate, but you see I have to I have to respectfully disagree with you. And the reason I say this is you talk about Australia Pittacus in your. But you leave out one iteration of Australia Pittacus, and that's Australia pick Pittacus Africanus or grass seal, which was the first the one that we are directly connected to that actually started to eat meat and their guts got smaller and their brains got bigger.
[00:35:47] And so there was an advantage to eating nutrient dense meats that has been bestowed upon us, but I juxtapose that. With something that Leslie Aiello said to me many years ago from the [00:36:00] wenner gren foundation that we can't eat paleo food has changed. Everything has changed. The Apple isn't the Apple that our paleo ancestors ate and this is where I've come to the concept of looking back to maybe.
[00:36:14] Eight ten Generations back. Yes where your family came from? What foods were indigenously available to them? What conditions were the environment like start there for your foundation? I agree. Yeah. I always say you know that people say should we eat like a caveman know we like a gorilla? I said, no eat like your great-great-grandparents.
[00:36:34] Yeah. I say, yes for the same reason. I knew I liked. I knew I liked you. I knew I liked you say, I mean thinking about having a book instead of pal him. I called a great grandparents died. You know, but you've been really it's sensible because we like I said at the beginning of the show evolutionary selection pressure is molding us as we speak.
[00:36:52] We did we don't we can't eat like paleo anymore. Not just because the foods aren't available, but we don't move the same. [00:37:00] We don't do the same things are environments have changed. We know that a micro biome is changed and it acts differently with the foods. We eat them or paleo ancestors. But with that being said, we certainly can eat like a great great, great, great grandfather's and great, great, great, great grandmother's.
[00:37:13] Do that. Yeah, and you know, what's interesting is I get people that you know, they blame their DNA and their genetics for why they're overweight and unhealthy and you know, if it's like, oh I'm sad because my mom was fat and I said listen, you can't blame your genes and why you can't fit into your jeans because in the year 1905 in the late 1800s, there was three percent overweight today, we're seventy percent.
[00:37:38] So if you look at old pictures, you've seen him the Black and Whites from the late 1800s early 1900s, and you see the three general for. Asians they're all have something in common one of they didn't smile. I don't know why they were so unhappy if they were thin. Yes. I challenge you to find somebody that was overweight.
[00:37:52] And now today look at a family portrait. I challenge you to find somebody that's thin so we can't blame our genetic DNA [00:38:00] necessarily. You're right things change. We adapt the foodstuff and chemicals Monsanto. We've got so many things now I felt I say focus on now, But let's eat like they did they were healthier back then than we are.
[00:38:10] They were for sure and there was lots less medical Intervention when I want to take a quick commercial break. When we come back, I want to pick it up. I've got more I want to talk to dr. David Friedman today about his book food and Sanity. I'm sorry food sanity. I apologize. That was that who was that blond?
[00:38:26] Susan powder? Remember her the personal trainer? Stop the insanity. I think I just thought her but the book is called food sanity and you can get it at the website food sanity.com stay tuned. We'll be right back with more superhuman radio.
[00:38:41] Welcome back. We're talking with dr. David Friedman about his book food sanity available at Food sanity.com. So. I've said on my show and if your dietary approach [00:39:00] gains you access to a special club or periodically a group Cruise if you feel the need to fight to defend the way you eat. Then you've selected that diet for the wrong reason.
[00:39:14] What do you think of that? Yeah. It's a good point. You know, it's funny because the word diet comes from the Greek word dilation, which actually means way of living so that's a key to achieving health and permanent weight loss and in my book, that's what I share your way of living. It's not just necessarily about.
[00:39:31] Hey, I just do this diet. Well, you know, what die it's okay that your food but if you really want diet your way of living and there's other aspects so you're very right. Let's talk about meat for a second because meat has been maligned as causing all sorts of health problems including colon cancer, but there's a Resurgence thanks to people like dr.
[00:39:52] Shaun Baker and others who are now promoting a nut long-term, not lifelong, but [00:40:00] periodic carnivore diet and you know, I'm earlier when we were talking about our ancestors Paleolithic or even Australia Pittacus. You know, they had periods of time where they had access to certain things like you said plants if they were in parts of the world where there was Winters or droughts.
[00:40:21] They may not have had plans. They had to, you know, learn how to become persistent hunters and where an animal out and then kill it and eat it. One of the one of the thoughts about why we have no more woolly mammoth is because they were like the Buffalo they were easy to kill and once you killed one a village could eat on it for months.
[00:40:41] And so they would it was better to go after one of those then some other smaller animal gazelle or something like that. That would that being said, dr. Daniel Lieberman who's been on my show a couple times over the years. The author of Harvard Anthropologist and author of The Story of the human body [00:41:00] said that we were phasic eaters.
[00:41:03] We have we based on access Foods. One of the things that allowed us to thrive as a species is that we could pretty much figure out how to get nutrition out of just about anything including grain which in my humble opinion we shouldn't be eating but I think you feel the same way. We'll talk about that in the next segment, but.
[00:41:22] You know, I kind of feel like this idea of going all on meat for short periods of time. It seems to be reducing people's autoimmune symptoms and doing some amazing things. What are your thoughts on that? Well, you know you bring up the opportunistic of you know, over ancestors and so forth. But now we have the opportunity what we want we go to the grocery store we have choices.
[00:41:46] So that's kind of where to look at in the book is all right, if you're in the wild and you have to eat, you know, there's nothing there you're going to go after certain animals if that's all. Available, but now you've got the option people feel this needy red meat, you know for protein in the truth is you just don't [00:42:00] need red meat to have a well-balanced diet, you know, in fact research shows healthy people around the world that live to be over a hundred eat very little if any red meat and we're taught as children that beef is needed for strong bones yet.
[00:42:10] There's so many professional athletes and Olympic gold medalist that are vegetarians and what's interesting is four years ago the National Academy of Science shared a major discovery of a unique molecules called neu5gc. Which is found abundant in cows, but it's not found in humans. And when we eat this sugar really triggers this immune response that our body attacks that can lead to chronic inflammation, which of course has been linked to colon cancer.
[00:42:35] So we've always known that colon cancers linked to eating red meat. We didn't know why we knew for a while that smoking cigarettes cause cancer. We didn't know why and scientist says hey, it's the nicotine. Well now we know it's the neu5gc that's been linked to this inflammation. So the more red meat.
[00:42:52] Wait, the more likely you are to get colon cancer and the most authoritative report and colon cancer risk to date was published by the world cancer research fund [00:43:00] International They concluded almost half of colon cancer could be prevented if people just eat less red meat and interesting. Also this neu5gc inflammatory molecule is just one atom different from a sugar molecule that lines are blood vessels is called neu5gc.
[00:43:16] AC and we share this molecule with chickens and fish so we can eat those foods with no inflammatory reaction. But when we eat red meat or immune system can't tell the difference our body ends up attacking our own blood vessels interesting this explains why research shows eating a lot of red meat increases heart disease.
[00:43:34] We finally have answers. So yes, there's you know, there's other animals. I think you should eat more of less red meat specifically because of that molecule but isn't almost all of the research done on red meat doesn't look at Prime cuts of steak. It looks at processed Meats when we understand the high heat cooking causes the high accumulation of a GES and nitrosamine Zin these meats that are not good for us.
[00:43:58] I wish I would [00:44:00] love to see a study done. On just people eating good cuts of beef from animals raised naturally. And that's better. Yeah, you'd be much better that point. But again animals, you're saying there certain animals that you should have more of in some less and just the study. We forget all the science.
[00:44:18] Let's look at common sense you look at digesting red meat red meats, very hard for humans to digest because humans have longer intestinal tract compared to carnivores the remnants of red meat remain in the colon longer and that can lead to Future frication concern to ammonia and waste product called uric acid and that acid destroys the intestinal Flora in the small intestines and when.
[00:44:38] Acid remain stagnant in the cold for too long. It gets absorbed into the bloodstream which can contribute to arthritis hypertension increased risk of type 2 diabetes leaky gut that's what it's called. Now compared to other animal Foods ready red meat is the most difficult fish takes 30 minutes to digest chicken takes 90 minutes and red meat.
[00:44:58] Then take up the five hours to [00:45:00] digest and if you don't eat enough fiber, it can actually clean to the intestine walls much longer. And if you look at the other thing red meat is protein dense animal muscle and in comparison to fish and poultry requires better chewing for optimal digestion more acid secretion by the stomach parietal cells and more active enzymes from the pancreas humans.
[00:45:19] Just you know, where are designed to process red meat unless it's thoroughly trued which is why the number one reason people require the Heimlich. Uber for choking is because a piece of undigested red meat has gotten stuck on the way down the esophagus. Yeah, look at that up. It's not chicken that they choke on.
[00:45:37] So it's hard to digest now when a carnivore bites red meat immediately at digest because they have the enzymes in their mouth. They have the teeth to break it down. We just want this and that we've adapted to being red meat eaters. That's so true. But if you really look at the biology is not something you should really eat a lot of now the occasional steak every now and then if I'm just not a promoter of everyday beef and ham burgers and bacon in the morning.
[00:45:58] Everybody's just so [00:46:00] Aunt so pro animal beef and you know read me well, but never let me so for one thing I want to go back to so you mentioned the populations and I'm assuming you're talking about people like the hunza that lived to be a hundred and above that don't eat red meat. They are almost always these populations are almost always lacto-ovo or pets your vegetarians.
[00:46:21] They are eating some form of protein and that contradicts the hunza a lacto-ovo vegetarians and they live to be the in the hundreds so that contradicts the whole milk is bad for your thing. Well, the blue zones is where you're looking at now that yeah, but they've changed you, you know, the blue zones if I just read and study the blue zones have been decimated by the modern diet.
[00:46:44] Oh, yeah, it's going to trickle its way on board. But if you look at pretty much what people eat the longest it is interesting. I got a patient who's 98 becomes any sharp as a tack. He golf's he drives here. He's like I said I said, what's your secret? I'm always interested in people that that state and live by example.
[00:47:00] [00:47:00] I said, what do you eat? He says every day. He says he eats a bowl of blueberries in the morning and I said really says for 50 years and if you research that it has they proanthocyanidins, which is good for cabinet, but it's more than that. I've actually done shows on this when people. Another one of the things that helps people live longer is suppression of certain types of stresses and stresses are interpreted by the body through the environment and through predictability.
[00:47:29] And routine II knew George Burns when I lived in Las Vegas. I met him. He smokes cigars every single day. He had a martini every single afternoon. When these people who do things that we know are contraindicated for Health and Longevity live that of course, there are outliers. I'm not arguing that I don't think people should smoke cigars and drink martinis.
[00:47:49] Whenever I talk to people who are in their ninth decade of Life, what I discover about them is they wake up the same time. They have the same exact breakfast. They do the same thing in the afternoon in the [00:48:00] garden. They do the same thing in the evening with their friends. They go play poker at the Moose.
[00:48:03] They go to sleep at the same time. They have this regimentation that I believe now. I'm starting to come to believe contributes to longevity because your body goes the world loves us. We get everything we want every day the way we want it. Yeah, it's back to the word. Aisha means way of living and that is being a stress free life.
[00:48:23] You're very right and also enjoying life my grandma lived in her 90s and then when she retired she passed away, but she loved what she did and when she stopped working. She was not happy. So you've got to stay happy. You got to stay stress-free and love what you do and you know what then he has a reason to live you got to have a reason to wake up and want to be here.
[00:48:41] Okay last thing about meat I want to ask you so the whole tmao. And heart disease do you agree with that that tmao is a contributor to heart disease and people who eat me tend to produce more tmao. I think is there's a big picture when you look at heart disease, you know heart disease. Sometimes [00:49:00] you do get genetic stuff with defects.
[00:49:02] And you do have that they can transfer from a weak heart to to your Offspring. But again, you know, I do think that with you know with eating the meat and the you know, when you we dealing with mammal tissue and stuff, it's just tough to break down because we are mammals. We warm blooded animals a little bit tough.
[00:49:19] And again, like I said, if you do the meat, you know once twice a month and you mentioned grass-fed great you want to do antibiotic-free hormone-free because those are obese engines and it's not necessarily food. That's really getting us. I always share it see what's inside our food which wrapped around our food and sometimes what we cook our food on it's making us sick.
[00:49:38] So a lot of its these chemicals and guess who didn't have these are great grandparents, so they were able to eat a steak and not have it is the big issue that we have today. The only reason why. I'm not sold on tmao yet. Is that eating fish produces a higher degree of tmao than red beef red meat and if tmao equals heart disease then we wouldn't say that fish is heart [00:50:00] healthy, and I'm still I'm still I still don't know.
[00:50:03] I think there's more to it. Well, you know, I have a theory and I'm not a doctor. I'm a kid who graduated from school and Brooklyn and got this show going and so I'm not a doctor but you're superhuman. What do you need to be? Yeah, there you go. But you know, but you know what? I'm starting to link the tmao discussion to see Beau I think where your body produces the tmao and how its readily absorbed into the bloodstream.
[00:50:30] Makes a difference between what it does to your body once it gets inside. That's just a theory. I've come up with that. I'm just looking at some dots and trying to connect them. Yeah, that makes sense. I want to take I want to take a quick commercial break when we come back. I want to talk about grains and specifically gluten.
[00:50:44] Okay, cuz I think that you have an interesting perspective on this stay tuned. We'll be right back with more of dr. David Friedman.
[00:50:53] You know, you've heard me talk about blinkist now. I am a blinkest lover blinkist is an app that allows you to [00:51:00] listen to nonfiction Books. They have literally thousands of them already translated and they reduce them to blinks and in 15 minutes. You can get all the Salient information about a particular book without spending the time listening to it or reading it yourself.
[00:51:19] In fact, when I came home from Ireland, I made a decision not to listen to the news anymore. So I had to find something to fill my time with so now when I'm done doing my show and I have post-production work to do I turn on my blankets tap. I pick five or six books that I want to know about that.
[00:51:38] I want to absorb the information and I let them run end-to-end and it's amazing the things that I'm learning. It's shocking and they also have a favorite pick of the day. This morning's was called the Tangled tree. It's a book on Evolution an interesting look at life and the journey of Life [00:52:00] they have.
[00:52:01] Books about love and you know, I just did a show the other day about the importance of actually actively loving to improve longevity and health. So blankest is a way for you to spend quality time with your brain. Right now If you go to http://blinkist.om/superhuman forward slash superhuman you'll get a 7-Day free trial check it out.
[00:52:27] That's http://blinkist.om/superhuman. And you will be amazed how quickly your brain will start to get filled up with stuff that will just Amaze you and your friends. You can actually be the smartest kid on your block thanks to blankets. Check it out show them some love with talking with dr.
[00:52:50] David Friedman about his book food sanity. So grains. What do you think of? Well, it's interesting. You know, the [00:53:00] gluten has been the big guess the Satan for food lately and just the last few years and it's been eating for three and a half million years not 10,000 years, like some of the experts are saying and scientists actually found gluten from wheat and barley in the teeth of our ancestors and according to research conducted by the University of Utah.
[00:53:18] 40% of our ancestors diet was. We've been digesting wheat and gluten for millions of years with no problems. We have microbes in our mouth stomach and colon designed to break down gluten. Why all this sudden in the past? 10-15 years has gluten been being poisonous and what I explained in food sanity.
[00:53:36] It's not the food that's to blame. It's the chemicals were exposed to in our food around her food even in the cookware prepare food on that's causing this gluten and other grain food sensitivities. It's also from the pesticides on our wheat and. Alex inside the animals, we consume all of these disrupt our healthy gut bacteria, which is creating this immune response to [00:54:00] things like gluten and let me just share people suffer from celiac disease.
[00:54:03] They have to avoid it. I mean the immune system attacks it as well as the lining of the gut and is about 2.4 million people that have silly act and then there's the estimated about six million people that have gluten sensitivity. But for all the rest of you which is about ninety percent completely boycotting gluten is absolutely not necessary and doing so can actually be a detriment to your house.
[00:54:23] There's so much study about grains with the health benefits of reducing your risk of stroke and diabetes and heart disease and healthy weight control and the list goes on. It's actually has an antioxidant that's cancer. Inhibitory as well. So the answer your question. Yeah. I think that I think we have an issue with wheat.
[00:54:40] I think we have an issue with gluten, but I don't think foods to blame. I think it's what we're doing to the food. Well, it's interesting that you I'm with you on this one, right? So I've actually done shows with dr. Stephanie sent if and dr. Anthony Sam sell about ground up about. [00:55:00] Yeah, you know glyphosate holds two patents as an antibiotic Monsanto holds two patents one with glyphosate and Amoxicillin to help combat antibiotic resistant microbes.
[00:55:14] And so we know that. Glyphosate is actually a powerful antimicrobial week antibiotic and the difference is the dose and duration. If you expose yourself to glyphosate for numerous days at high doses it acts like an antibiotic and this is and I'm with you on this. I think that it's hard to tease out what's gluten and what's glyphosate because they almost always accept if you're striving to buy.
[00:55:41] Organically grown or some of the Ancient Grains like spelt and stuff. You can't tease them out because in fact Monsanto has taught Farmers how to synchronize their crops using glyphosate general as a rule an acre of [00:56:00] wheat May produce. Let's say six. 60% of that acre of wheat is actually going to it's going to go on Beyond Harvest.
[00:56:09] It's going to be saleable. The other 40% is it's not mature yet. It's still immature and they're going to they're going to thrash it going to remove it, but they can't use it. Well Monsanto showed them that if you spray a non-genetically modified wheat crop with glyphosate the killing of the crop is actually what synchronizes the.
[00:56:31] The younger wheat that the less mature wheat so you actually end up with 100% of the acre which is saleable. So they literally spray it three days before they harvest it. The greatest load of glyphosate is on week then they put it in the and the silos and it all ruminates in there together and then they make flour out of it and you eat the bread.
[00:56:51] Exact and glyphosate has been linked to leaky gut syndrome, which is a big issue and I'm sure it's an antibiotic. It makes perfect sense. It's an antibiotic and nobody [00:57:00] nobody's paying attention to this. Oh well at least. The people who care aren't paying. Yeah, I'm glad you're on board a lot of times.
[00:57:05] You know, I say this to people in their mouth drops, like what are you talking about? It's all grains are bad. I'm like really and I'm in my book. I share studies on how positive it is. It was one. I love it was in May of last year of 2017. It was the British medical journal published research conducted by Harvard School of Public Health.
[00:57:20] And this was a big study. They had up our hundred thousand subjects for 25 years. That's a big study. They found participants with the highest intake of gluten-containing grains had significantly lower rates. Heart disease than those with the lowest consumption of gluten. So again, you know, you've got to can't really blame the food foods not to blame.
[00:57:38] How come 10 15 years ago. You can eat a pizza with no problem. And now you eat it you feel sick. Well as the way just travel abroad go to Italy eat the bread eat the pasta you don't get sick from it. You don't feel sick from it. I was just in Ireland the too long ago. I ate so much bread in Ireland and then my friend John Bolger he says to me.
[00:57:56] Well, you know, we don't have any around up here. They don't they don't use Roundup on the wheat [00:58:00] here. In there. Yeah, it's amazing. So yeah, and it's so funny. It's so we food just not the blame. So I'm glad you're on the same page. I'm usually get like what we talking about. Italy I eat it and I get sick I go course you do but don't blame.
[00:58:12] Listen, you could you could avoid that food and in 5-10 years are going to be another food. You're going to have to avoid we can keep playing that avoid game where we can address the cause and say look, we just got to get the proper pure few food in its cleanest form and let's treat the gut let's make sure our gut strong.
[00:58:26] Let's stop putting these chemicals and there's so many on there PFF. Phase from your from your pots and pans. You've got the bpa's that are in your plastic. They're everywhere. You know, what's so funny is people cook really healthy, of course because then they put it in this plastic container put in the microwave.
[00:58:41] Yeah, they might sit. I know I know but you know what? It's gotten to the point. You know, I have a book from the late 1800s called fortunes and formula formulas and it's like the fifth to sixth edition, you know, we have embraced. Around the late [00:59:00] 1800s and we believe that we were smarter than nature, but it's all coming home to haunt us.
[00:59:06] Now all of these things, you know, George Carlin said middle, maybe the Earth wanted plastic and now it's going to get rid of us, you know, all of these things that we we've created. For convenience and the evolution of modernity. They're actually destroying us. They're killing us. We don't even know and when I start talking about this stuff people are like, okay Carl now you're going to put the tin hat on but I worked with RF early in my career that the soup of radio frequencies that we live in today.
[00:59:34] Do not think it's not having an effect on our bodies. Do not think that. Oh, yeah, definitely and you know those people don't think about that like, you know, the BPA people know now, all right, that's some Plastics and you know, I shared my book on how to avoid the certain ones. You want to look for a three or seven on the bottom.
[00:59:53] It's okay. That's the plastic doesn't have the BPA which is vials phenyl a if it has one two or five watch out for the amine [01:00:00] or yeah, 3 3 or 3 or 7 and then the other thing that I share is it's. Thermal paper Imaging so p.m. Your credit card receipts and I saw interesting this guy. That was I watched his shopping cart at organic this non-GMO.
[01:00:14] Everything's eating healthy was at Whole Foods and they hand him the receipt. He puts it in his mouth reaches in his wallet takes out his wallet takes out the receipt of his mouth puts it in his wallet. Usually did he put in his mouth contaminated himself with these obese engines these chemicals.
[01:00:27] Touched it then put it in his wallet contaminate his money and he had this pot belly and I was wondering how can somebody that's eating so healthy have this Pat belly. He's exposing himself to these chemicals. He doesn't carry. It really is one last thing. I want you to weigh in on because now this is a new craze and I've said on this show that the ketogenic diet has a therapeutic benefit to people fighting brain cancer or epilepsy.
[01:00:53] But this idea that the people should be Kido where designed to be Kito. To the keto we were born keto and all this other [01:01:00] stuff that's coming out weigh in on the keto. Well, you know the keto diets the biggest craze now. Basically, it's a repackaged version of Atkins diet. And what I find odd is many of today's leading experts who 15 years ago anti Atkins are now embracing the ketogenic diet and it's like really and a lot of these people that had sold the paleo meal and Paleo this or changing it to Quito this and keep telling it on products and you know people going to lose weight on keto diet.
[01:01:24] It works. The goal of ketosis is for the body use fat for energy instead of carbs. And this type of weight loss is also seen in people. Frank from starvation including those with anorexia nervosa and there are many side effects were too hard diet to stay on and stay in ketosis and you know, you've got fatigue and dizziness and brain fog and you know staying in the state of ketosis is not easy and these long-term effects really aren't known yet.
[01:01:47] So yeah, I agree. Let's stop eating so much but a lot of these keto diets are just. Pork and bacon and hamburger and steak and it's like no that's not what we were designed for and in my book. I share a [01:02:00] story a personal story of someone who got deathly ill doing the Atkins diet and literally his liver his liver just rotted from this.
[01:02:06] So, you know, I don't think we're designed as we go back to his just bombarding the system with so much animal protein. It's important, but I believe in a flexitarian diet. It's flexitarian is the marriage between flexible and vegetarian. It's 80/20 80% plant-based. Minimal don't flip that I think flipping that is not a healthy thing to do.
[01:02:26] Okay and that and you know, and everybody has their opinion of what works for them to there's that's another issue here when we talk about diet everybody finds diets that work for them. But the problem is what is working for you really mean I am fact, I've got a guy that's coming on next week.
[01:02:44] That was a vegetarian vegan, which is a very extreme diet and riddled with. Nutrient deficiencies and others and vegans tick typically either are totally in love with the diet and they think that everybody should be vegan or they're running from the diet [01:03:00] because they're trying to get better and we have a guy that's coming on next week.
[01:03:03] I have these vegans who jumps. At a very high level because they've written books. They are very invested. They actually get death threats when they leave the vegan Community. That's kind of like the whole thing. I said before like it's a religion now, you're basically spit my God's eye. I'm going to coming to kill you now, but he's coming on their body because yeah the tally on the vegan and I'm kind of like the middle.
[01:03:26] It's like the Democrats are politics and I love luckily. I've created a bipartisan lunch where we can all get along because well, you know, but see I'm a lot like you and I'll tell you I've. I think that there's a place for the doing a keto diet when it revolves around intermittent fasting. I don't even like the term intermittent fasting.
[01:03:45] I like a more ancestral meal frequency because we didn't have a refrigerator in a pantry at our availability even you know, 500 years ago so I but I think. When people start to adhere to [01:04:00] a meal frequency pattern that is more like the one that we evolved under and Dr. Dale Bredesen found this with his end to Alzheimer’s he's been on the show a couple times and he just published a really great book.
[01:04:11] It's a New York Times bestseller the end of Alzheimer's where he gets people to stop eating at 6 p.m. So they have that 16 hour fast. Well top 4G can kick in and metabolic functions that have that, you know when you're not digesting food can occur so. I think that there is a place for some of these things if you use them but the idea of being hardcore vegan hardcore paleo hardcore keto hardcore anything.
[01:04:37] It's just not it's not part of our genetic makeup and we see this, you know, I did a show just recently that shows that. DNA epigenetic DNA and MRA mRNA changes that occur when people are man and woman are vegan and if they have children while they're in that state the child will [01:05:00] be imprinted with the Thrifty genes.
[01:05:02] The child will be prone to metabolic syndrome because the child is being built on in an environment where the body says. Wow. We all we have is fat. That's all we eat all the time. This is not a good environment. We have to build this child to be ready to starve. Right. And so, you know, everybody loves to say food is medicine is food.
[01:05:26] Yeah, and if you take too much medicine you can die if you think that food is medicine, but you can just go off the you know off the reservation with the way you're going to eat or I'm going to eat 90% fat for the next year. You're going to get sick because it's like medicine, you know. Oh, yeah, and a lot of people think everything in moderation.
[01:05:45] Well, that's not true. Because you know, you can have a moderate heart attack. You know, you got it. It's not everything and anything it's like, oh I'll just do agree that you know, we have to have a variety but there's certain chemicals certainty Factor. He's got to watch out for and you know, just equally what for people that want to [01:06:00] lose weight.
[01:06:00] I recommend it's simple to the no white diet. I've recommended this simple easy-to-follow died for 20 years of my practice. It's achieve more permanent weight loss than any diet plan out there simply don't eat refined and processed White. Foods, like flour sugar salt and dairy or anything made out of those now, there's great Alternatives.
[01:06:17] There's almond flour. That's not white flour. That's trip. There's black. There's black sea salt. That's great or Himalayan pink salt. That's great. And then there's stead of white sugar go with monk fruit and go with Xylitol from the birch tree. So there's Alternatives you still can quench your sweet tooth, but stay away from the white we're fine and you want to avoid obesogens.
[01:06:35] Those are the chemicals that cause weight gain and get at least 7 hours of deep restorative sleep. And you'll attain permanent weight loss and great health studies show. If you're not snoozing, you're not losing relax sleep and that makes us bigger. Yeah, that's a big deal. That's a big deal.
[01:06:50] We've been talking about that for decades now and it's linked to cancer. The book is called food. Sanity. The website is food. Salary.com. You can go there and check it out great discussion. Thanks for being on [01:07:00] the show today. Dr. Friedman. Always great had a fun time. Take care. You too, buddy.
[01:07:05] And then of course we want to thank dr. Jeff golini for the first half of the show. If you want to try lies on five go to super um radio dotnet and at the very top of the webpage there is a ask the scientist the question Banner ad click that and you can ask him for a free sample. I'm going to get some I could use a little extra help right now.
[01:07:24] It's because the weather is changing. I feel funky. I don't even want to get out of bed in the morning right now. This is the part of. The changing seasons. I hate I love when it gets Sunny earlier and brighter earlier and I want to get out of bed and get moving earlier. But now it's like seven o'clock and it's still dark out and I don't even want to go out.
[01:07:43] I look. I'm off tomorrow, but Friday, I have a great show with Anthony Roberts. You're not going to want to miss. I promise you it's going to be about supplements that Spike their products with drugs going to blow the lid off of it. Will talk to you then. Thanks for listening.
