Speaker:

Welcome to the VP Life Podcast, the show

Speaker:

where we bring you actionable health

Speaker:

advice from Mielein Mainz.

Speaker:

I'm your host Rob.

Speaker:

My guest today has been Spitzdik, a

Speaker:

functional health coach, founder of Vital

Speaker:

Coaching and the creator of the 4F

Speaker:

process, a systems-based framework

Speaker:

designed to restore health by fixing

Speaker:

physiology in the right order rather than

Speaker:

chasing symptoms or diagnoses.

Speaker:

Expect to learn why traditional

Speaker:

functional medicine often misses the mark

Speaker:

despite the best of intentions, how the

Speaker:

4F process, flush, feed, fasten function,

Speaker:

restores momentum across the gut, immune

Speaker:

and metabolic systems and why immune

Speaker:

metabolism, feedback driven coaching and

Speaker:

the order of operations matter more than

Speaker:

protocols or lab tests alone.

Speaker:

Now, on to the

Speaker:

conversation with Vince Pitstick.

Speaker:

Good morning Vince and thank you for

Speaker:

joining us on the podcast today.

Speaker:

This has been a few months in the making

Speaker:

and I know you're busy

Speaker:

so I appreciate the time.

Speaker:

I first got to know you when we worked

Speaker:

together that was a few years back and

Speaker:

things have obviously changed

Speaker:

and evolved a lot since then.

Speaker:

Stuff I'd like to chat

Speaker:

to you about in a bit.

Speaker:

First though, introductions.

Speaker:

You've got quite the

Speaker:

personal journey there.

Speaker:

Some of it I know, some of it I don't.

Speaker:

And we have time.

Speaker:

So I'd love it if you could just start

Speaker:

there with who you are, your background

Speaker:

and how you ended up where you are.

Speaker:

Yeah, I think it really helps listeners

Speaker:

and watchers to pre-qualify myself.

Speaker:

I'm not coming in with

Speaker:

an MD or as a scientist.

Speaker:

I'm coming in myself as a person who was

Speaker:

really really sick as a young child that

Speaker:

then through his journey really developed

Speaker:

the skills, went and got education and

Speaker:

then became a trainer of doctors and

Speaker:

medical systems all over the country.

Speaker:

And that's how I got this really unique

Speaker:

view of functional medicine, Western

Speaker:

medicine, the challenges that exist.

Speaker:

And so for my story, starts all the way

Speaker:

back when I was seven years old, grew up

Speaker:

on the farm and I got chemical exposure

Speaker:

that led to like immune deficiencies that

Speaker:

created, I got strep,

Speaker:

massive strep three times in a row.

Speaker:

And it led to a condition called pandas.

Speaker:

Now understand that this is now, I'm

Speaker:

dating myself here a little Rob, but this

Speaker:

was over boy now 34 years ago.

Speaker:

So and this is one of the things I'm

Speaker:

always challenged by is like back then we

Speaker:

had no idea about pandas.

Speaker:

Yeah, of any of this stuff, right?

Speaker:

In fact, just what was emerging at the

Speaker:

time was identifying symptoms that also

Speaker:

had their own diagnoses, right?

Speaker:

So most of the time.

Speaker:

So what happened to me is I start getting

Speaker:

intrusive thoughts, delusions, obsessive

Speaker:

compulsive pattern behaviors, ticks, you

Speaker:

know, all these different things, right?

Speaker:

At the time, it was thought that all of

Speaker:

this stuff was more behavioral.

Speaker:

So it was a lot of personal

Speaker:

blaming and shaming, right?

Speaker:

Because people just didn't understand,

Speaker:

which is very indicative of humans with

Speaker:

anything they don't understand.

Speaker:

When we know PTSD today, we know that

Speaker:

there's, you know, you know, get brain

Speaker:

injuries today, when we look at, you

Speaker:

know, we look, we know that there's

Speaker:

depression, anxiety, we know these things

Speaker:

exist on a clinical level.

Speaker:

They really didn't then.

Speaker:

And it was all classified behavioral

Speaker:

before we understood what it was.

Speaker:

And I always remember that today with

Speaker:

what people are dealing with how many

Speaker:

people today are dealing with things that

Speaker:

will know what they are in 30 years from

Speaker:

now, and they don't

Speaker:

have 30 years to wait,

Speaker:

which is why I do the

Speaker:

work that I do, right?

Speaker:

So, so now I'm going through, man, this

Speaker:

world of these different doctors, nobody

Speaker:

knows what to do with me.

Speaker:

I'm kind of like a Western medical

Speaker:

medicine dropout at this point,

Speaker:

they start to just kind of believe that

Speaker:

I'm insane and start sending me to

Speaker:

different strange

Speaker:

psychiatrists and things like that.

Speaker:

It's when physical symptoms started to

Speaker:

manifest and gut issues and night terrors

Speaker:

and anxiety, all that stuff.

Speaker:

That finally they're like, "Oh, we think

Speaker:

this is a condition we're now

Speaker:

realizing exists called OCD,

Speaker:

right?

Speaker:

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder."

Speaker:

Now true, okay, true, that

Speaker:

was one of my symptoms, right?

Speaker:

And carries its own diagnosis.

Speaker:

However, that's where we get confused

Speaker:

sometimes in Western medicine where we're

Speaker:

like, "Aha, we have a diagnosis.

Speaker:

Everything flows from that.

Speaker:

So, we'll just work backwards from the

Speaker:

diagnosis or work forwards from the

Speaker:

diagnosis and try a treatment, throw some

Speaker:

stuff in there, and that's when they

Speaker:

wanted to throw medication at me."

Speaker:

Now, what we know about psychiatric

Speaker:

medication 34 years ago is

Speaker:

it didn't work out too well.

Speaker:

A lot, yeah.

Speaker:

Not too many of those kids

Speaker:

ended up actually healthy.

Speaker:

One, and two, many got injured.

Speaker:

We don't talk enough about that.

Speaker:

I saw those kids in those clinics.

Speaker:

I mean, I'll be sitting in the rooms with

Speaker:

my mom and I'd be looking around at nine

Speaker:

years old or 10 or 11 and I'm like

Speaker:

looking at these kids and I'm like, "I

Speaker:

don't know where I am.

Speaker:

I don't know what I'm dealing with, but I

Speaker:

definitely don't know where they are and

Speaker:

I don't think they do either."

Speaker:

You know, drooling and

Speaker:

just, it would put you out.

Speaker:

Like kids would be nodding out like

Speaker:

they're on methadone or something and it

Speaker:

was just like, "I'm like, nah.

Speaker:

I'm going to stick with what I got."

Speaker:

And my mom, that was one of the genius

Speaker:

things about my mom's intuition, although

Speaker:

she got other things wrong

Speaker:

and this one she got right.

Speaker:

And so we started the journey of mental

Speaker:

health through therapy, which I think was

Speaker:

a really, really good choice.

Speaker:

Cognitive behavioral therapy, which I'm a

Speaker:

big fan of still today with

Speaker:

almost any issue you have.

Speaker:

And then we started exploring the world

Speaker:

of natural medicine.

Speaker:

And it really was until I started putting

Speaker:

together as I got a little bit older, one

Speaker:

of the benefits of being a male, when you

Speaker:

get these conditions, is that

Speaker:

testosterone tends to

Speaker:

calm them down, tends to.

Speaker:

Where in girls, unfortunately, estrogen

Speaker:

tends to exacerbate these issues.

Speaker:

And so it kind of helped me a little bit

Speaker:

as I start getting into 14, 15.

Speaker:

In this time, right about

Speaker:

this time, 13 through 15,

Speaker:

I found, I went to enough nutrition over

Speaker:

here, detox doctor over here,

Speaker:

hormone optimization

Speaker:

here, and therapy over here.

Speaker:

And I kind of just stuck

Speaker:

this rickety system together.

Speaker:

And through that process, I got well.

Speaker:

And it wasn't a magic pill.

Speaker:

It wasn't just one thing.

Speaker:

It was this synergistic process that I

Speaker:

was able to put together.

Speaker:

And fortunately, granted, the OCD stuck

Speaker:

with me for a while, then ended up

Speaker:

turning into, I found also at the time

Speaker:

substances that were not the best idea,

Speaker:

but they worked at the time,

Speaker:

street drugs, that also

Speaker:

assisted me in getting better.

Speaker:

However, those drugs

Speaker:

then became a problem later.

Speaker:

What's the solution one day becomes a

Speaker:

problem later, which is also what I

Speaker:

believe a lot about modern psychiatry now

Speaker:

is that a lot of the medications we use

Speaker:

as a temporary solution can become a

Speaker:

problem for many people later, not that

Speaker:

there can't be useful tools.

Speaker:

But we do need a multi-dimensional,

Speaker:

multifaceted approach to healing on a

Speaker:

functional root cause level, and really

Speaker:

deliberate people from the things that

Speaker:

are holding them back.

Speaker:

And that just kind of spurred my journey

Speaker:

in traveling all over learning about

Speaker:

herbology, learning about genetics,

Speaker:

learning about everything that I could,

Speaker:

some in school, some outside of it, some

Speaker:

studying under certain doctors.

Speaker:

I became obsessed with understanding how

Speaker:

we put Humpty Dumpty back together again.

Speaker:

And that was the rest of my journey that

Speaker:

kind of then just in a short note, led me

Speaker:

to developing my own health program near

Speaker:

Chicago, then getting poached by a global

Speaker:

medical company called Medigenics.

Speaker:

I trained under Dr.

Speaker:

Jeffrey Bland and a lot of people at Gig

Speaker:

Harbor Washington, the research facility,

Speaker:

and then also at San

Speaker:

Clemente, California.

Speaker:

And I learned about this whole world of

Speaker:

functional medicine.

Speaker:

And I realized that there's this whole

Speaker:

other world of science that exists that

Speaker:

nobody was paying attention to.

Speaker:

And I was exposed to it.

Speaker:

And I go, "Oh my gosh, you put everything

Speaker:

I already know with this."

Speaker:

It's like, I think

Speaker:

anybody could be unstoppable.

Speaker:

And then that's when I went out for

Speaker:

Medigenics and became a trainer, a

Speaker:

functional medicine consultant, building

Speaker:

practices, training new protocols,

Speaker:

helping them build systems in their

Speaker:

practices to be able to scale cash or

Speaker:

insurance based services.

Speaker:

And I saw how every single doctor tried

Speaker:

to treat in their own way.

Speaker:

And probably my strongest trait is I'm a

Speaker:

pattern, I recognize patterns.

Speaker:

I'm not the smartest, like, you know,

Speaker:

rocket scientist, I couldn't read a book

Speaker:

and study and test, like that's not me.

Speaker:

But I noticed patterns.

Speaker:

And I noticed how different doctors all

Speaker:

tried to solve the same pattern using a

Speaker:

one dimensional process, whether it's one

Speaker:

treatment or one pill.

Speaker:

It's like, it's not a coincidence, Rob,

Speaker:

that when you go to a chiropractor, every

Speaker:

treatment involves an adjustment.

Speaker:

It's not a coincidence.

Speaker:

If you go to a hormone doctor, every

Speaker:

treatment's going to involve a hormone.

Speaker:

And the problem with that specialization

Speaker:

is that most people have more problems in

Speaker:

all the other systems of the body that

Speaker:

need restoration, they need balance, the

Speaker:

ecosystem needs to be restored.

Speaker:

And one poking and prodding of the system

Speaker:

is not going to do that.

Speaker:

And so you, people need to become more

Speaker:

generalist in order

Speaker:

to create real freedom.

Speaker:

And no one's really willing to do that.

Speaker:

So I left after being a trainer for five

Speaker:

years became one of

Speaker:

the top in the country.

Speaker:

And I opened up my own practice called

Speaker:

Nutrition Dynamic at the time, which is

Speaker:

now Vital Coaching, that I took all the

Speaker:

best practices, organized them in a way

Speaker:

that could be done online and see anybody

Speaker:

anywhere in the world.

Speaker:

And then there you have today, we're one

Speaker:

of the largest in the country that that

Speaker:

does this kind of work functional

Speaker:

medicine led by a coach

Speaker:

with a medical team behind it.

Speaker:

So in concierge medicine thing, and we're

Speaker:

trying to grow become the Amazon of

Speaker:

health, because we want to reach everyone

Speaker:

who's suffering anywhere in the world.

Speaker:

Yeah, that's an amazing story.

Speaker:

And I sort of loved the fact that you

Speaker:

pointed to the sort of the psychological

Speaker:

side of it to begin with, I think, in

Speaker:

mainstream medicine, if you're labeled

Speaker:

with a psychological psychiatric

Speaker:

condition, it stops there.

Speaker:

And no one very few practitioners realize

Speaker:

that most of the time, a psychiatric

Speaker:

issue has a physiological

Speaker:

or biological underpinning.

Speaker:

And yeah, of course, you need to deal

Speaker:

with the mental health component of it.

Speaker:

But the mind is a manifestation of what's

Speaker:

going wrong in the

Speaker:

body for the most part.

Speaker:

And yeah, it's it's in psychiatry,

Speaker:

there's this idea that the the body stops

Speaker:

here, right below the neck.

Speaker:

That's it.

Speaker:

Well, that's the whole problem with

Speaker:

modern medicine is that you've got a

Speaker:

system that is based on, you know, the

Speaker:

basically 11 systems of the body, right.

Speaker:

And it's like, I'm going to be the master

Speaker:

of one system, and then all of you can

Speaker:

master your own systems.

Speaker:

And then the way that we're all going to

Speaker:

play nice is I'll stay in my lane, you

Speaker:

stay in your lane, and

Speaker:

we'll refer to each other.

Speaker:

It's all going to work out great.

Speaker:

It's all going to be wonderful.

Speaker:

Everyone's going to make money, no one's

Speaker:

going to get upset at each other for

Speaker:

stepping on each other's toes.

Speaker:

And it seems like

Speaker:

it's this perfect system.

Speaker:

And unfortunately,

Speaker:

once somebody has an

Speaker:

issue past acute phase,

Speaker:

right, so three to six months, in in by

Speaker:

definition, a chronic condition really

Speaker:

has multiple systems that are now

Speaker:

involved, that are

Speaker:

impaired in different percentages.

Speaker:

And so to solve that in a real meaningful

Speaker:

way, we need we would either in the

Speaker:

system that we have in Western medicine,

Speaker:

the endocrinologist would need to talk to

Speaker:

the GI doctor would need

Speaker:

to talk to the cardiologist.

Speaker:

And they have that at Cleveland Clinic,

Speaker:

you know, but we don't do that in the

Speaker:

United States, right.

Speaker:

And so everyone falls through the cracks,

Speaker:

because nobody's talking in that way.

Speaker:

And I don't ever think you're going to

Speaker:

change the Western medical

Speaker:

system to fit that system.

Speaker:

Therefore, there has

Speaker:

to be something else.

Speaker:

And what is that something else?

Speaker:

And everyone that you probably will talk

Speaker:

to is coming up with their own version of

Speaker:

like, what is something else?

Speaker:

You know, and that's what I've done for

Speaker:

myself, I say, well, I can't count on

Speaker:

anyone else to be

Speaker:

synergistic and talk to each other.

Speaker:

So let's create our own place and then

Speaker:

also connect with other practitioners who

Speaker:

are like minded, bring

Speaker:

those things together.

Speaker:

One of our biggest refers are

Speaker:

psychologists, you know, and therapists,

Speaker:

because they begin to realize, hey, these

Speaker:

people, if they get consistent with their

Speaker:

exercise, if they just clean up their

Speaker:

diet a little bit, maybe they run a

Speaker:

little bit of a detox process or

Speaker:

something of the sort, something small

Speaker:

even, while they're doing the therapy,

Speaker:

leads to incredible emotional and

Speaker:

physiologic outcomes,

Speaker:

right, psychological.

Speaker:

And that's what I keep trying to say, if

Speaker:

I had not done so when, for example, with

Speaker:

pandas, one of the things is your, it's

Speaker:

your immune system, it gets overactive.

Speaker:

And when it does, all your energy is

Speaker:

going into sympathetic dominance, fight

Speaker:

or flight, upregulated nervous system.

Speaker:

Do you know how hard it is to think

Speaker:

clearly when you have a dysregulated

Speaker:

nervous system because it's trying to

Speaker:

tell you something's wrong in the body?

Speaker:

Like, good luck, like emotionally trying

Speaker:

to work through your problems when your

Speaker:

body in the inside is being like, you

Speaker:

know, and it's like, you

Speaker:

can soothe that physically.

Speaker:

And then you can also soothe it

Speaker:

psychologically, emotionally, right?

Speaker:

So this top down, bottom up approach

Speaker:

should always be best

Speaker:

practice to achieve wellness.

Speaker:

I can tell you on the business side, the

Speaker:

reason that this fails as someone who

Speaker:

tried to set these systems

Speaker:

up, it costs more money upfront.

Speaker:

It's not as simple.

Speaker:

It then requires you can't just have one

Speaker:

machine or one treatment, and then scale

Speaker:

that thing and improve

Speaker:

profitability like that.

Speaker:

You actually have to sit on it, this

Speaker:

imperfect system that makes a little less

Speaker:

money upfront, but starts getting

Speaker:

outcomes down the road that will start

Speaker:

attracting more people.

Speaker:

So doctors would have to be patient.

Speaker:

And they'd have to get their practice

Speaker:

managers involved and their, and the

Speaker:

people and now you're

Speaker:

going against the status quo.

Speaker:

And people are going to be frustrated

Speaker:

with you because you're

Speaker:

trying to figure it out.

Speaker:

There's this huge desert that you've got

Speaker:

to get through to get to the other side

Speaker:

as a generalist in order to achieve a

Speaker:

practice that is actually

Speaker:

multidimensional in that way.

Speaker:

And most doctors, most practitioners,

Speaker:

they're too afraid of peer pressure.

Speaker:

They're afraid of like insurance not

Speaker:

covering it and they

Speaker:

don't want to go cash pay.

Speaker:

And so the standard of care, insurance

Speaker:

companies, guys in suits who have no

Speaker:

clinical background are telling you how

Speaker:

to treat your patients are also rewarding

Speaker:

you by the way, by the number of pills

Speaker:

you prescribe, which is super messed up.

Speaker:

It's a whole other story.

Speaker:

But like, so you're trying to rip off the

Speaker:

teat of that, move into something

Speaker:

uncomfortable and as someone who coached

Speaker:

them through these things.

Speaker:

If you don't have a coach, if you're

Speaker:

trying to just do this because you feel

Speaker:

inspired and you know

Speaker:

it's the truth, good luck.

Speaker:

No one's making it.

Speaker:

You're going to go back to

Speaker:

doing what you always did.

Speaker:

You're going to check in

Speaker:

and you're going to check out.

Speaker:

You're going to go home and you're going

Speaker:

to love your family.

Speaker:

You're going to take them on vacations

Speaker:

and you're just going

Speaker:

to let it be what it is.

Speaker:

And that's why people don't get better.

Speaker:

Yeah, no, I couldn't agree more.

Speaker:

And I think it just speaks to this sort

Speaker:

of whole, well, not only the

Speaker:

dysfunctional sort of mainstream model

Speaker:

that we've sort of just discussed, well,

Speaker:

you've just discussed in great detail,

Speaker:

but also the functional medicine model.

Speaker:

Now, I suppose,

Speaker:

and correct me if I'm wrong, but I think

Speaker:

this whole functional medicine paradigm

Speaker:

really started maybe in the 60s with

Speaker:

Linus Pauling, who's as I'm sure you

Speaker:

know, is a biochemist.

Speaker:

He started this this idea of

Speaker:

orthomolecular medicine, which is where I

Speaker:

feel that functional

Speaker:

medicine has its roots.

Speaker:

This idea of course, that by utilizing

Speaker:

nutritional, nutritional aid, nutritional

Speaker:

supplements, you can tweak an

Speaker:

individual's biochemistry and hope to

Speaker:

improve a lot of

Speaker:

these chronic conditions.

Speaker:

Now, of course, that is

Speaker:

reductionist in of itself.

Speaker:

And obviously, Dr.

Speaker:

Pauling was just a biochemist.

Speaker:

So he didn't have the full view as you've

Speaker:

just alluded to, since in the field has

Speaker:

obviously evolved and progressed as has

Speaker:

functional medicine.

Speaker:

And people are now going into these sort

Speaker:

of functional medicine clinics and these

Speaker:

settings and these programs and to some

Speaker:

extent, and they are, I suppose, broadly

Speaker:

speaking, making some level of progress.

Speaker:

But as you've alluded to previously, a

Speaker:

lot of them are still struggling and

Speaker:

still falling through the cracks, even

Speaker:

though we sort of moved from this

Speaker:

traditional paradigm of siloed medicine,

Speaker:

where you only ever see one doctor who

Speaker:

operates in with it with through one lens

Speaker:

and through and in one specialty to this

Speaker:

more functional paradigm, but

Speaker:

people are still struggling.

Speaker:

Now, can we shout out Linus Pauling, the

Speaker:

basically the godfather of vitamin C.

Speaker:

Yes, right.

Speaker:

You know, I mean, starting from just one

Speaker:

vitamin, and then that's where what's

Speaker:

interesting about my lineage on this.

Speaker:

Yeah, his understudy was Dr.

Speaker:

Jeffrey Bland.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

And Dr.

Speaker:

Jeffrey Bland, I had the like, again, I

Speaker:

was this young, I had no idea who I got

Speaker:

to spend time with, like, he's the

Speaker:

Einstein, in my opinion of our time, Dr.

Speaker:

And I, one of the things that I found so

Speaker:

interesting is that when I was young,

Speaker:

learning nutrition, learning all these

Speaker:

things, and I was in the bodybuilding at

Speaker:

this time, here I show up, you know, and,

Speaker:

you know, just huge over

Speaker:

consuming mTOR, you know, whatever.

Speaker:

And I walk in into these functional

Speaker:

rooms, and I get to meet Dr.

Speaker:

Bland and everybody.

Speaker:

And I, I had no idea

Speaker:

what I was about to uncover.

Speaker:

Anyways, I still, I still digress and

Speaker:

laugh at the journey a little bit, you

Speaker:

know, where, you know, we all learn new

Speaker:

things, you know, that's why you might

Speaker:

start like everything's carnivore.

Speaker:

And then you go, Oh, my god, there's this

Speaker:

whole world of this, that and the other,

Speaker:

you know, or whatever your thing is, the

Speaker:

journey is going to take you to very

Speaker:

unconventional places.

Speaker:

I guess that's I'm just laughing at the

Speaker:

road to getting here, you know.

Speaker:

Anyway, of course, what they say all

Speaker:

roads ultimately leads to

Speaker:

Rome in one way, shape or form.

Speaker:

So yeah, definitely.

Speaker:

Yeah, no, I sort of, I

Speaker:

briefly remember reading up that Dr.

Speaker:

Bland was an understudy of Dr.

Speaker:

Paul Pauling.

Speaker:

Yeah, I should have linked that up in a

Speaker:

bit more detail given who I'm talking to.

Speaker:

Anyway, but I suppose fundamentally, and

Speaker:

you've, you've covered this to an extent,

Speaker:

but and we can keep a brief, of course.

Speaker:

But why has functional

Speaker:

medicine failed, do you think?

Speaker:

I mean, it's more, you've, as I said,

Speaker:

you've already spoken about this briefly,

Speaker:

but functional medicine is still missing

Speaker:

the boat in so many ways.

Speaker:

And then I'd love to get

Speaker:

into your fore process.

Speaker:

Now, I mean, again, I've got my thoughts.

Speaker:

It's a sort of

Speaker:

fragmented sort of organ versus

Speaker:

sort of whole systems approach.

Speaker:

And there's very little way in terms of

Speaker:

systemic infrastructure in functional

Speaker:

medicine that has been established.

Speaker:

Again, everybody has their sort of their

Speaker:

MO, their way they approach it.

Speaker:

Instead of being going to a

Speaker:

gastroenterologist, you're now going to

Speaker:

functional medicine specialist to only

Speaker:

focus on this, excuse me, only focuses on

Speaker:

the gut, or only focusing on hormones.

Speaker:

And do you sort of broadly speaking, sort

Speaker:

of find that to be true?

Speaker:

Or do you find that or do you think there

Speaker:

are other reasons why the system fails?

Speaker:

So in the last decade,

Speaker:

you know, functional medicine, year over

Speaker:

year grows, the industry

Speaker:

grows about 26%, which is large, that's a

Speaker:

huge, that's a huge shift.

Speaker:

Same thing, online fitness, you know, I

Speaker:

don't want to bring this up to, we've

Speaker:

seen massive industrial growth.

Speaker:

I mean, people are spending more on

Speaker:

weight loss than ever

Speaker:

before in human history.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

And it seems like the more money that we

Speaker:

throw at the problem,

Speaker:

medicine is at all time high, right?

Speaker:

Like, you know, as part of GDP, right?

Speaker:

More drugs than ever,

Speaker:

more doctors than ever.

Speaker:

And yet we're sicker than ever.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

So there, there seems to be this, this

Speaker:

relationship that we're missing the point

Speaker:

in that, and this is where I'll get to

Speaker:

this is that clearly fitness hasn't

Speaker:

figured it out and put

Speaker:

a dent into it, right?

Speaker:

Clearly functional medicine hasn't to

Speaker:

this point been able to

Speaker:

put much of a debt in it.

Speaker:

And clearly, Western medicine hasn't been

Speaker:

able to stop it either,

Speaker:

for all their benefits.

Speaker:

They all have benefits, all three of

Speaker:

them, but in and of themselves have been

Speaker:

relatively powerless to shift the

Speaker:

morbidity curve in the United States.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

And globally, I mean, it's happening all

Speaker:

over once they adopt the

Speaker:

Western medicine way of life.

Speaker:

And so, or Western way of life.

Speaker:

So let me give you my perspective, two

Speaker:

things on the problem and why.

Speaker:

One is functional medicine still thinks

Speaker:

like Western medicine.

Speaker:

They want to be like Western medicine.

Speaker:

And then therefore,

Speaker:

oftentimes, you've got two camps.

Speaker:

You've got the really, really holistic

Speaker:

practitioner, who's got their one off

Speaker:

thing that they do on everybody.

Speaker:

It's the same, that's the

Speaker:

kind of myopic thought process.

Speaker:

That's the issue.

Speaker:

It's like, it's all just PEMF, or it's

Speaker:

all just H-Bot, or it's all just, you

Speaker:

know, whatever the thing is, you know,

Speaker:

and when they get off on their soapbox,

Speaker:

and they don't work with anybody else.

Speaker:

And so they kind of relegate themselves

Speaker:

to a smaller population of people to

Speaker:

proportionately impact

Speaker:

that then doesn't spread.

Speaker:

And then you got the other group who

Speaker:

looks for adoption, they look to get

Speaker:

certifications and licensing and

Speaker:

functional medicine.

Speaker:

Most of my opinion, when you look at most

Speaker:

of the certifications or licensing and

Speaker:

testing, it's done like Western medicine.

Speaker:

That's why like, if you look at the

Speaker:

naturopath, for example, when they first

Speaker:

started, when it first started coming up,

Speaker:

naturopaths looked like the great hope.

Speaker:

It really did.

Speaker:

Early on, they had their own schools and

Speaker:

all this other stuff, and it

Speaker:

looked like the great hope.

Speaker:

And today, I'm sorry, it's failed

Speaker:

everybody, and it's not

Speaker:

any better for most of them.

Speaker:

And the reason why is they still think

Speaker:

Western medicine, and then they just

Speaker:

apply the functional on the back end.

Speaker:

How you look at solving problems decides

Speaker:

whether your root cause or not, you know,

Speaker:

you can't just run 2700 tests, throw

Speaker:

everything together as a kind of random

Speaker:

treatment, and then see them again in

Speaker:

three to six months,

Speaker:

like, it's not going to work.

Speaker:

Okay, it's just a green pharmacy.

Speaker:

It's not, it's not going to work.

Speaker:

It doesn't work.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

We see that.

Speaker:

Now, I'm glad that other options exist.

Speaker:

Don't get me wrong.

Speaker:

If you're a functional medicine

Speaker:

practitioner, and I'm

Speaker:

not here to poo poo.

Speaker:

I just I don't I still think you're

Speaker:

thinking like a Western alipath.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

It's like, what's the symptom?

Speaker:

And then what pill do I give for that?

Speaker:

You're just given a

Speaker:

supplement rather than a drug.

Speaker:

And it's like, no, that's not it.

Speaker:

It's not enough.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

So the other component of it is not just

Speaker:

the way that we solve problems,

Speaker:

which I take a very inductive or

Speaker:

deductive approach versus an inductive

Speaker:

approach, we've talked

Speaker:

about the differences there.

Speaker:

And there's a book called

Speaker:

the problem of induction.

Speaker:

And if you can bore through it, it will

Speaker:

open your mind to how solving things

Speaker:

through the inductive

Speaker:

method is actually incorrect.

Speaker:

And whenever any industry applies it,

Speaker:

you're doomed to fail.

Speaker:

Because your way of solving problems is

Speaker:

in contradiction to how

Speaker:

the body actually heals.

Speaker:

And so very much so deductive working

Speaker:

through a systematic process towards the

Speaker:

solution is always it.

Speaker:

That's why if somebody comes, let me give

Speaker:

an example that people can understand.

Speaker:

If somebody comes into me, and they have

Speaker:

a blood pressure issue, okay, right,

Speaker:

let's say they have blood pressure issue.

Speaker:

I know that that's going to be a deeper

Speaker:

cardiovascular typically, I mean, 5% of

Speaker:

kidney issues are not vascular nature and

Speaker:

have other other reasons, I understand

Speaker:

that, but for the vast majority,

Speaker:

what I'm going to do is I'm going to work

Speaker:

through a process towards helping the

Speaker:

kidneys, I'm not just going to start with

Speaker:

the kidneys, meaning that like, I'm not

Speaker:

just going to give you a blood pressure

Speaker:

pill and see in three

Speaker:

to six months, right?

Speaker:

Or I'm not going to give you a bunch of

Speaker:

supplements for your blood pressure and

Speaker:

see in three to six months and tell you

Speaker:

to walk and, you know, drink water, like,

Speaker:

like, okay, I get that.

Speaker:

What I'm going to do is I know I'm going

Speaker:

to start with opening lymphatics liver,

Speaker:

getting fluids off the top of the body,

Speaker:

reducing inflammation, then I'm going to

Speaker:

move to the gut where most cellular

Speaker:

inflammation comes from to start to give

Speaker:

the kidneys more of a break, then I'm

Speaker:

going to do some intermittent fasting,

Speaker:

fast feasting, because I can

Speaker:

clean the kidneys out easier.

Speaker:

And then by the time I even got to the

Speaker:

kidneys, if I wanted to put a blood

Speaker:

pressure medication in, I wouldn't need

Speaker:

to, they'd already be solved.

Speaker:

The trickle down effect is what you want

Speaker:

for the solution to the diagnosis.

Speaker:

Not like everything is like diagnosis and

Speaker:

work backwards, right?

Speaker:

You want to have a process forwards and

Speaker:

that can be hard for people to understand

Speaker:

if they've been medically trained for a

Speaker:

very, very, very long time.

Speaker:

And I fully respect that and I understand

Speaker:

that and I understand if people disagree

Speaker:

with me, but if it's bad enough, you

Speaker:

could certainly put a blood pressure

Speaker:

medication in, but you're still going to

Speaker:

go work the process forward.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

So one is how we solve problems and then

Speaker:

two is how we treat, like, what is the

Speaker:

process of walking people through?

Speaker:

How do we actually solve problems?

Speaker:

And so what do I mean by that is what is

Speaker:

the treatment plan like?

Speaker:

And so for me, I know for a fact that if

Speaker:

someone doesn't have a relationship

Speaker:

during their care, the number one element

Speaker:

to healing is the human element.

Speaker:

That is why right next to penicillin, the

Speaker:

number one greatest invention in human

Speaker:

history for healing is the nurse because

Speaker:

every treatment in the world

Speaker:

is delivered by a nurse today.

Speaker:

And without that relationship, right, to

Speaker:

the doctor and to the nurse,

Speaker:

healing is almost impossible.

Speaker:

There's no trust.

Speaker:

Your nervous system's

Speaker:

not going to calm down.

Speaker:

You're out there on your own.

Speaker:

Your body's going to stay in something

Speaker:

called cell danger response.

Speaker:

And so the reality is your body will

Speaker:

resist any kind of treatment because it's

Speaker:

this self-sustaining vehicle.

Speaker:

And without you having the human element

Speaker:

of healing, I don't think it exists.

Speaker:

And so for me, that's why I believe so

Speaker:

heavily that if you don't have a coach

Speaker:

that's staying in contact or a process

Speaker:

where you're having consistent contact or

Speaker:

community with your

Speaker:

patients or your clients,

Speaker:

your success rate goes through the toilet

Speaker:

or goes down the toilet.

Speaker:

There has to be an element of lifestyle

Speaker:

change activated by the patient or the

Speaker:

client while you're providing a therapy

Speaker:

and walking them through the journey of

Speaker:

healing that includes mind,

Speaker:

body and dare I even say spirit

Speaker:

or 100%.

Speaker:

I mean, we've had related relationship.

Speaker:

We've had discussions about God and the

Speaker:

spiritual matters as well.

Speaker:

And I mean, at this point in time, all I

Speaker:

want to do is talk about cell danger

Speaker:

response because yeah,

Speaker:

that's my jam at the moment.

Speaker:

But I think you are dead on.

Speaker:

And I think if I was to sort of, I think

Speaker:

that by focusing on the nervous system

Speaker:

more so than anything, you can create

Speaker:

more of a shift in someone's state of

Speaker:

health than you can by pulling any other

Speaker:

lever if you could only pull one.

Speaker:

I mean, of course, that's

Speaker:

another rabbit hole completely.

Speaker:

But I mean, this is right

Speaker:

there, you're not wrong.

Speaker:

So if I was going to start somewhere,

Speaker:

right, if I was going to have a strategy,

Speaker:

the nervous system speaks to all other

Speaker:

systems of the body, right?

Speaker:

And you're really talking about the brain

Speaker:

and the nerve, that's

Speaker:

the whole one system.

Speaker:

But that nervous system is going to is

Speaker:

going to help reregulate the

Speaker:

communication, it's going to create

Speaker:

ecosystem balance, the

Speaker:

body is not a machine.

Speaker:

If it was a machine, that's why sometimes

Speaker:

I hate the idea of pills is like, give

Speaker:

them 20 milligrams of this and this will

Speaker:

be the exact outcome.

Speaker:

Yeah, that'll start that way.

Speaker:

And then it's immediately going to change

Speaker:

because an ecosystem adapts to the

Speaker:

stimulus immediately as

Speaker:

you begin to give it to it.

Speaker:

And so it's not a machine.

Speaker:

If I if it's a machine, I can give it an

Speaker:

exact input with an exact

Speaker:

output every single time.

Speaker:

But an ecosystem is always changing.

Speaker:

And so you have to create

Speaker:

what balance to the ecosystem.

Speaker:

And that's why the nervous system is so

Speaker:

critical to getting the kidneys back in

Speaker:

alignment with the liver to the gut, to

Speaker:

the endocrine system, right?

Speaker:

And so you can work the nervous system

Speaker:

bottom up through different therapies,

Speaker:

like, you know, foods

Speaker:

and stuff like that.

Speaker:

And, and, you know, sunlight, and, you

Speaker:

know, there's all kinds of treatments we

Speaker:

could talk about the flush is what I do

Speaker:

for the nervous system.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

And then but then also you can do it top

Speaker:

down through community,

Speaker:

spirit, again, cognitive behavioral was

Speaker:

was one of the ones I did for me, all

Speaker:

these different things.

Speaker:

And then all of a sudden, that nervous

Speaker:

system really starts to calm down.

Speaker:

And then you can break through to the

Speaker:

specific area you want to get to, right,

Speaker:

whatever the specific system is.

Speaker:

But really, the gatekeeper to that system

Speaker:

is the nervous system, you see.

Speaker:

So there's like an

Speaker:

order of operations, Rob.

Speaker:

And this is where the light bulb went on

Speaker:

for me, brother, when I was

Speaker:

watching everyone work it.

Speaker:

And remember, I told you pattern

Speaker:

recognition, I'm like, Oh, wait a minute,

Speaker:

it's kind of like switches on, when the

Speaker:

power goes out, you turn the you turn the

Speaker:

main on first, and then you got to turn

Speaker:

the other switches on.

Speaker:

And then and then all of a sudden things

Speaker:

start to turn on, Rob, that was what I

Speaker:

was like, Okay, what's the order?

Speaker:

What's the magic combination?

Speaker:

And I was like, 1234.

Speaker:

This is the order.

Speaker:

And then I took all

Speaker:

those things that do that.

Speaker:

And I put it into a system.

Speaker:

And we call it the four f system,

Speaker:

which is absolutely perfect.

Speaker:

Because that's what I

Speaker:

want to discuss next.

Speaker:

Because quite honestly, all I want to do

Speaker:

is geek out with you

Speaker:

on the stuff all day.

Speaker:

However, you have a time limit, and we've

Speaker:

got to keep it pretty high level.

Speaker:

So you and I could do it forever.

Speaker:

I could talk about it forever.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's definitely two piece in a pod.

Speaker:

But yeah, your forex system.

Speaker:

Now, I think I can quote you as saying

Speaker:

that you're willing to take on and

Speaker:

correct me if I'm wrong, pretty much any

Speaker:

health condition out there.

Speaker:

And as you feel that this system you

Speaker:

built out the forex system, I suppose

Speaker:

covers enough of the the pathophysiology

Speaker:

for it to be effective at being able to

Speaker:

well treat the root of any

Speaker:

sort of quote unquote condition.

Speaker:

Now, of course, I don't expect to give

Speaker:

away you to give away all your IP,

Speaker:

although maybe a little bit although I

Speaker:

love to give it away

Speaker:

and then wouldn't hurt to become pay us

Speaker:

to organize it for him.

Speaker:

You know, yeah, there we go.

Speaker:

That's gonna be my next question.

Speaker:

But the order of operation stuff.

Speaker:

Yeah, but yeah, to start off with, can

Speaker:

you just run us through what this system

Speaker:

is, starting with the

Speaker:

flush and going from there?

Speaker:

Yeah, so my so what I realized is, again,

Speaker:

when I worked with all these different

Speaker:

doctors all over consulting sitting in on

Speaker:

their cases, you

Speaker:

know, I probably saw over

Speaker:

I don't know, 30,000 cases even before I

Speaker:

opened up my own system.

Speaker:

And then remember, before that, I already

Speaker:

know fundamental nutrition, I had already

Speaker:

worked supplementation or

Speaker:

done a lot of these things.

Speaker:

And I was looking at how doctors would

Speaker:

work different processes and where they

Speaker:

would start and then where would they end

Speaker:

and then what was the success rate.

Speaker:

And I was particularly disturbed by the

Speaker:

success rate of the modern doctor, which

Speaker:

is why you don't see

Speaker:

doctors posting success stories.

Speaker:

It's why I all I do is post success

Speaker:

stories, because I'm like, show me your

Speaker:

work, not your license.

Speaker:

Show me your outcomes.

Speaker:

Because the problem is the African West,

Speaker:

the average Western medicine doctor is

Speaker:

40% successful with a

Speaker:

probably a 20 to 70 60% relapse rate.

Speaker:

It's not great, right?

Speaker:

Your statistical probability of solving

Speaker:

something outside of just like a, an

Speaker:

infection with the antibiotic is if it's

Speaker:

beyond that, you know, if it's not acute,

Speaker:

it starts to go dramatically down.

Speaker:

Anything chronic starts to become people

Speaker:

don't realize when they go in the

Speaker:

doctor's office, like your, your

Speaker:

statistical probability of solving that's

Speaker:

lower than you'd probably be comfortable

Speaker:

with, you know, not that I get I don't

Speaker:

love great doctors, this always sounds

Speaker:

like I'm, I love my doctors and they have

Speaker:

great hearts and souls out there.

Speaker:

So please, I just

Speaker:

understand where I'm coming from.

Speaker:

So just the for F

Speaker:

process is as simple as this.

Speaker:

And in that there's

Speaker:

11 systems of the body.

Speaker:

And I learned that if you stimulate, it's

Speaker:

an order of stimulation.

Speaker:

So if I stimulate one set of systems, and

Speaker:

then I stimulate another, and then I

Speaker:

stimulate another, they'll get they'll

Speaker:

fall back into alignment.

Speaker:

And then all of a sudden outcomes start

Speaker:

happening, the body starts working with

Speaker:

me instead of against me.

Speaker:

And it really, it actually all kind of

Speaker:

comes down to the

Speaker:

immune system in reality.

Speaker:

And we'll kind of describe this in a

Speaker:

minute, which the immune system actually

Speaker:

doesn't isn't in one, it's not one

Speaker:

system, it's in every system, really.

Speaker:

And so I didn't know I didn't know this

Speaker:

when I started working this at the time.

Speaker:

But what I understood was like, let's

Speaker:

take a let's take a

Speaker:

condition any condition.

Speaker:

So let's start with Hashimoto's.

Speaker:

Well, Hashimoto's is a great one, right?

Speaker:

So Hashimoto's, again, if you are if you

Speaker:

follow my logic, any diagnosis that you

Speaker:

ever hear is never the root cause.

Speaker:

So don't assume it's the root cause start

Speaker:

there that helps you.

Speaker:

Because it's like, people get names

Speaker:

because they want to know the name to

Speaker:

what's the thing I need to attack.

Speaker:

And so they get a word like Hashimoto's.

Speaker:

And you're like, Oh, the root cause of

Speaker:

Hashimoto's is Hashimoto's.

Speaker:

Like, no, no, that's actually a

Speaker:

comorbidity that we've

Speaker:

identified that we can give a name to.

Speaker:

Okay, there has to be

Speaker:

something that predated that.

Speaker:

And that's where same thing, cardio

Speaker:

metabolic disorders like high blood

Speaker:

pressure, majority of high blood

Speaker:

pressures is metabolic syndrome, right?

Speaker:

One in one in two people in the United

Speaker:

States now have high blood pressure.

Speaker:

And majority of them have metabolic

Speaker:

syndrome, and only 30% of those people

Speaker:

are diagnosed with the root, but

Speaker:

everybody knows the secondary morbidity,

Speaker:

you see, this is why the when we talk

Speaker:

about root cause, that's what we mean.

Speaker:

Okay, right.

Speaker:

So I know that there's a level of

Speaker:

cellular inflammation that has somehow

Speaker:

imbalanced the immune system in one way

Speaker:

or another, that it's being triggered,

Speaker:

and then it stressed the thyroid out the

Speaker:

thyroid's response starts to be

Speaker:

overactivity under the duress, and then

Speaker:

the immune system turns and starts

Speaker:

looking at it to slow it down oftentimes,

Speaker:

starts throwing out TPO at it, and then

Speaker:

just slowing down for

Speaker:

the for the audience that big.

Speaker:

Yeah, sorry.

Speaker:

Yes, I know.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

So

Speaker:

thyroid peroxidase is an antibody that

Speaker:

essentially is is one of the ways your

Speaker:

body has an antibody to

Speaker:

about every organ in the body.

Speaker:

And it does that to help

Speaker:

clean up tissues as a governor.

Speaker:

So your immune system has a regulatory

Speaker:

purpose to every system of your body.

Speaker:

And it doesn't want to

Speaker:

step in unless it has to.

Speaker:

And and so that'll happen.

Speaker:

And so whether it's due to

Speaker:

heavy metal exposure, virus,

Speaker:

the, you know, something can get inside

Speaker:

of your body and then create inflammation

Speaker:

in the thyroid or wherever, and then the

Speaker:

immune system can go check it out.

Speaker:

And it's overactivity in that area can

Speaker:

lead to autoimmunity, right.

Speaker:

And there's many ways we could talk about

Speaker:

why that happens, that could be a whole

Speaker:

other podcast for another day.

Speaker:

Let's keep it really simple.

Speaker:

Okay, so once that happens, and it

Speaker:

happens in people, and then sits there

Speaker:

for five years, that's the other thing

Speaker:

you have to assume, it's like by the time

Speaker:

you recognize you have the problem, it's

Speaker:

already been going on for five years.

Speaker:

And that's pretty true of almost any

Speaker:

condition, diabetes, autoimmunity, you

Speaker:

name it, it's gone on for a long time.

Speaker:

So inside the body, once inflammation

Speaker:

rises, by definition, because of energy

Speaker:

conservation, where your body's using

Speaker:

energy, your nervous system starting to

Speaker:

get dysregulated, because it's telling

Speaker:

you something's wrong.

Speaker:

It's trying to, it's trying to

Speaker:

communicate with you, which is why you

Speaker:

don't feel, you feel unsettled, you can't

Speaker:

calm down, you're having intrusive

Speaker:

thoughts, whatever comes for you, sleep

Speaker:

imbalances or whatever.

Speaker:

And what happens is, as energy starts

Speaker:

going to cell danger response to the

Speaker:

immune system, especially the adaptive

Speaker:

immune system, T and B cell lymphocytes,

Speaker:

it's very expensive, right?

Speaker:

It's like, if I'm going to go run that

Speaker:

Porsche at 100 miles an hour, I'm going

Speaker:

to spend a lot of money in gas.

Speaker:

So you your ATP, then goes to protection,

Speaker:

and not to cellular function and energy

Speaker:

and muscle and, and your brain for

Speaker:

thinking it goes into your immune system.

Speaker:

So that's why almost every time Rob, the

Speaker:

number one symptom of all

Speaker:

time is fatigue and brain fog.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

And everyone goes, Do you have brain fog?

Speaker:

You must have Lyme disease.

Speaker:

Do you have brain fog?

Speaker:

You must have IBS.

Speaker:

And it's like, no, no, no.

Speaker:

If you have brain fog, you have an

Speaker:

overact your immune system stealing your

Speaker:

energy that every single

Speaker:

time we don't know why.

Speaker:

That's what the exact

Speaker:

investigative process for.

Speaker:

But your immune system is overactive, and

Speaker:

it's dealing your energy

Speaker:

almost almost 90% of the time.

Speaker:

That's what it is.

Speaker:

I mean, you can have cancers and stuff,

Speaker:

but your immune

Speaker:

system is involved in that.

Speaker:

So either way, brain fog, we know of

Speaker:

upregulated immune response,

Speaker:

and we want to discover why.

Speaker:

Well, what I don't want to do, Rob is run

Speaker:

a million tests, and then try to guess

Speaker:

why the immune system is

Speaker:

overactive or whatever.

Speaker:

I don't want to do that because every

Speaker:

time that you do that,

Speaker:

you always miss something.

Speaker:

You always miss something in the process.

Speaker:

It's like growing a great garden.

Speaker:

Like, you need to follow a process, then

Speaker:

you might change some of the things you

Speaker:

do based on where you live in the United

Speaker:

States and whatever.

Speaker:

But if you skip parts in the process,

Speaker:

you're going to have a crappy garden.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

So if it's like, Oh, I care about

Speaker:

tomatoes, and I'm not thinking about the

Speaker:

soil, and I'm not thinking about

Speaker:

everything else, I'm going to miss

Speaker:

something, and I'm not going to get a

Speaker:

great garden, or I'm not going to get a

Speaker:

great yard, and that's an ecosystem.

Speaker:

So I don't skip steps.

Speaker:

I stay in the deductive process.

Speaker:

I'll adjust based on their

Speaker:

program, but I follow the steps.

Speaker:

And when I do that, we did 7,000 cases,

Speaker:

Rob, and now we've

Speaker:

done over 70,000 people.

Speaker:

Even without labs, we have

Speaker:

over an 88% success rate.

Speaker:

With labs, we have a 95% success rate.

Speaker:

So labs do enhance your clinical

Speaker:

effectiveness, but they shouldn't dictate

Speaker:

everything that you do.

Speaker:

You're going to get lost in the process.

Speaker:

Okay?

Speaker:

So I start with coming in.

Speaker:

I know that the immune

Speaker:

system is overactive.

Speaker:

Cells are dividing fast.

Speaker:

Mitochondria are starting to die.

Speaker:

Inflammation's rising.

Speaker:

It doesn't matter.

Speaker:

Chronic conditions,

Speaker:

this is always happening.

Speaker:

So I need to open the lymphatic system.

Speaker:

I need to stimulate the endocrine system,

Speaker:

like the adrenals and the thyroid, to

Speaker:

help cellular activity.

Speaker:

This being the flush.

Speaker:

Yes, it's called the flush.

Speaker:

I have to open the system up, because

Speaker:

when the immune system's really active,

Speaker:

everything else slows down.

Speaker:

Metabolism tends to slow down.

Speaker:

Fat metabolism tends to slow down.

Speaker:

So shorten this up.

Speaker:

Stimulate, so every

Speaker:

cell jostles, basically.

Speaker:

It's cellular activity.

Speaker:

I'm trying to keep it very simple here.

Speaker:

That jostling has everything to do with

Speaker:

the endocrine system

Speaker:

and the nervous system.

Speaker:

Okay?

Speaker:

So you need to create cellular activity

Speaker:

in order for it to remove waste and

Speaker:

perform cellular functions.

Speaker:

So when your body gets inflamed,

Speaker:

remember, most cell functions have

Speaker:

reduced a little bit to

Speaker:

run the immune system.

Speaker:

So I've got to stimulate the endocrine,

Speaker:

the nervous system, the lymphatic system,

Speaker:

and basically the liver.

Speaker:

That's what I've got to do first.

Speaker:

I've got to open the body up and prepare

Speaker:

for me to get rid of

Speaker:

things out of the body.

Speaker:

Maybe there's blocks in your hormones,

Speaker:

blocks in cellular

Speaker:

metabolism of something.

Speaker:

All disease is metabolic.

Speaker:

So if I work the metabolic pathway and I

Speaker:

open it up and I make it pristine and I

Speaker:

get rid of all the traffic, the chance of

Speaker:

you getting better from whatever you have

Speaker:

is not like it's highly probable, right?

Speaker:

It's statistically predictable with the

Speaker:

numbers that we have now.

Speaker:

So I start there.

Speaker:

Then I moved to the immune

Speaker:

system, which is in the gut.

Speaker:

So I'm working the gut and the immune

Speaker:

system next phase two, and that gets rid

Speaker:

of most global cellular inflammation.

Speaker:

Then we have to help the body reset.

Speaker:

It's been on mTOR when you're inflamed,

Speaker:

you're always an mTOR,

Speaker:

which is sugar burning.

Speaker:

And now I have to get into this.

Speaker:

I got to get rid of damaged cells and I

Speaker:

got to get into the mitochondria of cells

Speaker:

to help fix the cell.

Speaker:

And get it moving into AMPK.

Speaker:

What people don't understand is based on

Speaker:

what your cell will tell

Speaker:

your immune system how to work.

Speaker:

If I'm in mTOR, I'm in

Speaker:

phase one immune function.

Speaker:

If I'm in AMPK, I'm in

Speaker:

phase two immune function.

Speaker:

And what all people need to know about

Speaker:

that is phase two immune function is how

Speaker:

when you were 16 years old, you could

Speaker:

fall off a building and drink poison and

Speaker:

feel great the next day.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

And now today as you're older, you'll

Speaker:

start noticing your blood sugars on

Speaker:

average creep up even if they're in

Speaker:

range, you start creeping up because

Speaker:

you're spending more time in an mTOR.

Speaker:

And the problem with that is now, if I

Speaker:

don't sleep eight hours,

Speaker:

I feel like I'm hungover.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

And so I need to get your

Speaker:

body to spend more time in AMPK.

Speaker:

And what are ways to achieve that?

Speaker:

Well, keto, carnivore, fasting,

Speaker:

intermittent fasting, activity.

Speaker:

And then there's tools, autophagy, like

Speaker:

tools, peptides, all that stuff that

Speaker:

assist the body in

Speaker:

getting into autophagy.

Speaker:

Now the body can get rid of cells that

Speaker:

don't have enough mitochondria in them

Speaker:

that aren't working very well.

Speaker:

We got to get these senescent cells out.

Speaker:

It's a conversation for another day.

Speaker:

Once we start removing these, and this is

Speaker:

what I believe why, like let's say you

Speaker:

get an Epstein-Barr virus, somehow it

Speaker:

attacks the thyroid.

Speaker:

So TPO goes up, you have senescent cells

Speaker:

around your thyroid.

Speaker:

I want to get rid of those cells, you can

Speaker:

fast them out with autophagy.

Speaker:

So phase three is the cell.

Speaker:

I got to fix the cell to get well.

Speaker:

And then I need to then after that phase,

Speaker:

I got to balance out insulin

Speaker:

and leptin and all of that.

Speaker:

And then I move into the hormone phase

Speaker:

because the thing that keeps everything

Speaker:

kind of stable, really strong,

Speaker:

homeostasis, is your sex hormones.

Speaker:

So then I balance out the sex hormones is

Speaker:

the last part of it to keep

Speaker:

you really stable and vital.

Speaker:

And then make sure that your body

Speaker:

performs in the

Speaker:

environment that you need to be in.

Speaker:

Meaning that the function phase is what

Speaker:

do I need to get you functioning for?

Speaker:

Are you an athlete?

Speaker:

Are you someone who

Speaker:

needs to work a lot of hours?

Speaker:

Are you someone who's a mom that needs to

Speaker:

function for three kids?

Speaker:

Are you somebody who's an engineer who

Speaker:

needs their brain power all the time?

Speaker:

I want to optimize your diet, training,

Speaker:

supplements, even genetics, do genetics

Speaker:

testing to be optimal for that function

Speaker:

so that you can sustain that level of

Speaker:

stress without

Speaker:

breaking the system back down.

Speaker:

Because resiliency is more

Speaker:

important than asymptomatology.

Speaker:

You've got to get to resiliency in order

Speaker:

for people to thrive.

Speaker:

And so through that 4F process, they're

Speaker:

studying my diets right now at the

Speaker:

University of South Florida.

Speaker:

And I'm telling you guys right now, we

Speaker:

will see that the data that comes out of

Speaker:

this is going to rock the nutrition and

Speaker:

functional medicine world

Speaker:

because we have figured it out.

Speaker:

And it's not about one thing.

Speaker:

It's about a process that creates pattern

Speaker:

recognition that then holds your hand and

Speaker:

mentally coaches you through it in order

Speaker:

to achieve some level of freedom.

Speaker:

And that's what we do.

Speaker:

And now I'm just ready for

Speaker:

the world to find out, man.

Speaker:

Vince, you have created

Speaker:

an incredible framework.

Speaker:

And I can just attest to

Speaker:

this being an effective model.

Speaker:

Now, I know most coaches could likely

Speaker:

take a client through

Speaker:

what you've created.

Speaker:

And they can probably

Speaker:

get some level of results.

Speaker:

But to be honest, that's not necessarily

Speaker:

what makes a good health

Speaker:

coach a good health coach.

Speaker:

It's something you've

Speaker:

mentioned earlier again.

Speaker:

It's an order of operations things.

Speaker:

Really knowing when, I suppose you think

Speaker:

about it, which sort of

Speaker:

phase to plug in at which time.

Speaker:

Because you can work

Speaker:

someone through a process.

Speaker:

But if you don't have an intrinsic

Speaker:

understanding of maybe the biology, the

Speaker:

physiology, and how the process works,

Speaker:

then you don't know when to progress

Speaker:

somebody, when to progress somebody, when

Speaker:

to sort of take somebody,

Speaker:

yeah, backwards or forwards.

Speaker:

I'd love to get your

Speaker:

thoughts on this, though.

Speaker:

How do you progress somebody who is maybe

Speaker:

struggling and maybe not getting the

Speaker:

results that they are

Speaker:

after the first time round?

Speaker:

Do you sort of take them

Speaker:

straight back to the beginning?

Speaker:

Or is there a,

Speaker:

what are your thoughts there in terms of?

Speaker:

Yeah, so the reason that I have the four

Speaker:

step process embedded in there, Rob, is

Speaker:

about 16 variables that we check off.

Speaker:

And that's something that we train in the

Speaker:

back end of like, if somebody comes in,

Speaker:

first off, our job, if somebody comes in

Speaker:

and says they feel some type of way, our

Speaker:

first job is to believe them.

Speaker:

So we're going to go so hard at what you

Speaker:

believe to help you out.

Speaker:

And if we get all the way to the end of

Speaker:

the road, and we've checked off the 16

Speaker:

most likely reasons that are all involved

Speaker:

in the process, and if that doesn't work,

Speaker:

there's only a couple left over.

Speaker:

And so we know where to go.

Speaker:

See, that's why

Speaker:

deduction is so important.

Speaker:

If I skip steps, and I'm doing whatever,

Speaker:

or I do one treatment, if

Speaker:

it doesn't work, then what?

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

And that's where most

Speaker:

people find themselves.

Speaker:

Then what?

Speaker:

In our program, then we've got a couple

Speaker:

things left over where we go, okay, we

Speaker:

know that this is either deeper genetic,

Speaker:

and we're missing a

Speaker:

mutation that is throwing us off.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

Or we didn't get, we did not go deep into

Speaker:

the cell enough, we need we need there's

Speaker:

more cells and the body needs more time.

Speaker:

There's only about two or three things

Speaker:

left over that we know that we need to go

Speaker:

in harder and spend more time with.

Speaker:

And so sometimes we'll real quick run

Speaker:

through the fore half just to open it

Speaker:

back up and make sure it's where

Speaker:

sometimes it helps to kind of like flush

Speaker:

the system back out for a second, make

Speaker:

sure you've checked your balances, but

Speaker:

you get through it really quickly.

Speaker:

And then we'll go to emphasize on the

Speaker:

area that we got stuck in the most.

Speaker:

And, and then we'll know how to go

Speaker:

deeper, like, because how do you know

Speaker:

where to really

Speaker:

double down an investment?

Speaker:

Otherwise, you're just throwing shit at

Speaker:

the wall hoping it sticks, excuse my

Speaker:

language, but it's kind of what happens.

Speaker:

And so that's one of the reasons I feel

Speaker:

so confidently like,

Speaker:

like, let me give an example,

Speaker:

Rob, breast implant illness.

Speaker:

What is breast implant illness, right?

Speaker:

We can argue a lot of things, but

Speaker:

fundamentally what it is, is an

Speaker:

autoimmune reaction to the implant.

Speaker:

Okay, fundamentally.

Speaker:

Now you can't have leakage, you can have

Speaker:

all these different

Speaker:

things, and that can be true.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

But did you know, I've worked now 2000

Speaker:

cases of BII or supposed BII.

Speaker:

And did you know that less than 10% of

Speaker:

them was actually the implant?

Speaker:

It was the immune system reacting to all

Speaker:

kinds of other things

Speaker:

going on in the body.

Speaker:

Once we got rid of that stuff, the body

Speaker:

didn't react to the implant anymore.

Speaker:

Yeah, that was just the trigger.

Speaker:

The needle there broke the camel's back.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

Think of the same logic here.

Speaker:

Hashimoto's, do we

Speaker:

just cut out the thyroid?

Speaker:

No.

Speaker:

Some people might.

Speaker:

I know, graves, you might.

Speaker:

I'm grave, I might argue that.

Speaker:

But you can actually get the

Speaker:

body back into homeostasis.

Speaker:

Now,

Speaker:

excluding leaks or a manufacturer error,

Speaker:

like all that other stuff, which is

Speaker:

probably accounts right now for about

Speaker:

three to 6% of what's going on out there.

Speaker:

I would say that one out of 10 women, the

Speaker:

implant because of the immune system,

Speaker:

it's the scar tissue.

Speaker:

See, it's the scar tissue.

Speaker:

If the implant because of the, you know

Speaker:

how people who they don't do well if they

Speaker:

put in fake earrings, or they get bad

Speaker:

when they have a scar,

Speaker:

it scars up real bad.

Speaker:

Chemical sensitivities.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Those people have a very

Speaker:

reactive immune system.

Speaker:

And one thing about the immune system,

Speaker:

when it's very

Speaker:

reactive, it hates scar tissue.

Speaker:

Hates it.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

And so the problem with this is, is that

Speaker:

what is a capsule are scar tissue.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

It's the body trying to protect you from

Speaker:

what is already happening.

Speaker:

I also see that by the way, I believe

Speaker:

that's what's happening in most EBV Lyme

Speaker:

cases where if there is something left

Speaker:

over, the body starts to create, that's

Speaker:

what I think senescent cells start to do.

Speaker:

It encapsulates the virus.

Speaker:

And we'll talk about that another time,

Speaker:

which is really interesting to try to

Speaker:

stop it from dividing.

Speaker:

And those cells turn

Speaker:

into senescent cells.

Speaker:

If there is virus left over,

Speaker:

that's where I think we find it.

Speaker:

And so, again, that's another topic.

Speaker:

That's why part of my process, we will

Speaker:

use homeopathics with the

Speaker:

viral signature if we need to.

Speaker:

And then we start doing fast feasting

Speaker:

strategies to train the body what to look

Speaker:

for to go find it and get rid of it.

Speaker:

But coming back to the implant.

Speaker:

So what we end up finding is that most of

Speaker:

the time, if I calm the immune imbalance

Speaker:

down, it has no

Speaker:

problem with the scar tissue.

Speaker:

But those 10%,

Speaker:

it will, the scar tissue has gotten so

Speaker:

heavy, maybe something's growing on the

Speaker:

scar tissue, like mold, by

Speaker:

the way, which it can happen.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

And then, or that there's so much damage

Speaker:

to the scar tissue in some way that it

Speaker:

just keeps drawing the immune system in,

Speaker:

then they have to be removed.

Speaker:

But the crazy thing is, if you go in and

Speaker:

remove them and do a capsule, ectomy, or

Speaker:

really get rid of a lot of scar tissue to

Speaker:

let it reform another capsule, which is

Speaker:

another conversation for another day.

Speaker:

If you use a very aggressive immune

Speaker:

protocol up front to shunt the immune

Speaker:

response and prevent rejection, they can

Speaker:

have the implants again with no problem.

Speaker:

We've seen it.

Speaker:

Now I'm not saying go

Speaker:

back to the implant.

Speaker:

I'm not even, I'm not a moral judge of

Speaker:

like what you're doing with your body.

Speaker:

I'm very interested in how the immune

Speaker:

system learns and adapts

Speaker:

and what it creates over time.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

So a lot of people think it's

Speaker:

the implant that's the problem.

Speaker:

It's not.

Speaker:

It's the scar tissue

Speaker:

oftentimes from the capsule.

Speaker:

Yeah, that's fascinating.

Speaker:

I'm gonna have to look into that.

Speaker:

That's something I've

Speaker:

definitely learned today.

Speaker:

I don't know that there was so much

Speaker:

hyperactivity between scar

Speaker:

tissue and any immune system.

Speaker:

So I'll definitely You'll find that.

Speaker:

And that's why a lot of times we'll have

Speaker:

people go in and cut out, like if they go

Speaker:

redo the surgery and kind of clean the

Speaker:

scar tissue and then put in an immune.

Speaker:

It could have been from a

Speaker:

bad knee injury or something.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

And we'll have them clean it out.

Speaker:

And then we do, we shunt the immune

Speaker:

system so it doesn't

Speaker:

create more of it again.

Speaker:

It's more of a, it's a

Speaker:

safer healing process.

Speaker:

And then they don't have the same

Speaker:

reactions anymore,

Speaker:

which is super fascinating.

Speaker:

The point of why I'm sharing that, right,

Speaker:

is to come back to finding out that if

Speaker:

you don't work a deductive process, and

Speaker:

you just remove the implants, you might

Speaker:

feel a little bit better

Speaker:

for about three months.

Speaker:

But the overwhelming evidence today is

Speaker:

over 60, 70% of people who have an X

Speaker:

plant go back to feeling like crap,

Speaker:

because you didn't get to

Speaker:

the root of the problem.

Speaker:

Yeah, you just potentially took out the

Speaker:

trigger, but you didn't solve the you

Speaker:

didn't get the immune system into a

Speaker:

condition state where it actually needs

Speaker:

to get into so that the body can then

Speaker:

operate as it should do and get out of

Speaker:

that cell danger response and back into

Speaker:

normal cell physiology.

Speaker:

Yeah,

Speaker:

Vince gallbladder removal, gallbladder.

Speaker:

Yeah, there we go. 90% of gallbladder

Speaker:

removal ends in an autoimmune disease.

Speaker:

I'm sure it does in 10 years.

Speaker:

Yeah, because you're not dealing

Speaker:

downstream with any sulfation,

Speaker:

glucuronidation, any of the sort of

Speaker:

hepatic buildup that sorry, I'm going to

Speaker:

stop there before I can attend it.

Speaker:

I know you got it, bro.

Speaker:

You already you're

Speaker:

spitting fire right now.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's amazing.

Speaker:

Vince, honestly, I

Speaker:

could talk to you all day.

Speaker:

I know you have me come back, man.

Speaker:

We'll do another one.

Speaker:

If if your if your followers, listeners,

Speaker:

watchers, if they say, Hey, bring that

Speaker:

guy a crazy guy back,

Speaker:

we'd love to hear him.

Speaker:

I'll come back if they don't have fun in

Speaker:

your audience, because you

Speaker:

truly are one in a million.

Speaker:

Before before I let you go, would you

Speaker:

mind if we just ran through

Speaker:

a few rapid fire questions?

Speaker:

Rapid fire.

Speaker:

Let's go.

Speaker:

Absolutely.

Speaker:

Perfect.

Speaker:

Always good for reals.

Speaker:

Okay, maybe go slightly against what we

Speaker:

were just talking about.

Speaker:

But if you had one wish for one lab that

Speaker:

new clients arrived with you arrived

Speaker:

with, what would it be?

Speaker:

I'm gonna go genetics test.

Speaker:

Genetics test because

Speaker:

genetics are the future.

Speaker:

It can tell me a lot about why your

Speaker:

body's responding the way that it is.

Speaker:

And I can add nutrients that will help it

Speaker:

heal or resolve different issues.

Speaker:

And it can help me forego any problems

Speaker:

that I might run into that make you

Speaker:

unique during the process.

Speaker:

Yeah, no, I've still got to get my hands

Speaker:

on your new DNA test when it finally it

Speaker:

actually comes out the next month.

Speaker:

That's awesome.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's incredible.

Speaker:

Flush feed, fast or function, which is

Speaker:

your personal favorite phase of the

Speaker:

fourth process and why?

Speaker:

Fast phase, fast phase spiritually, the

Speaker:

Bible mentions a fasting 77 times,

Speaker:

whether you agree that the Bible is a

Speaker:

book of wisdom or a book of the living

Speaker:

God, it's I don't want

Speaker:

to argue that that's okay.

Speaker:

But what I can tell you is that don't you

Speaker:

think it's possible that if every

Speaker:

religion in the world agrees on one thing

Speaker:

that that one thing is probably truth.

Speaker:

And do you know what that one thing is?

Speaker:

Fasting?

Speaker:

No, 100%.

Speaker:

Perfect.

Speaker:

Most overrated supplement in the

Speaker:

industry, functional health in general.

Speaker:

Oh boy, the most overrated supplement in

Speaker:

the industry is without a doubt, in my

Speaker:

professional opinion, right?

Speaker:

And I'm gonna ruffle some some feathers

Speaker:

here, probably most likely is fish oil.

Speaker:

And the reason I say fish oil is most

Speaker:

fish oil is is not certified by a third

Speaker:

party, it's not made correctly, the oil

Speaker:

is rancidified, or it's not even rancid,

Speaker:

it's just dead, which

Speaker:

is an anisodyne level.

Speaker:

And everybody takes it thinking it's

Speaker:

going to be the thing to their future.

Speaker:

And they're not even taking one that has

Speaker:

enough EPA, DHEA in it.

Speaker:

And they're not taking a large enough

Speaker:

dose that is going to

Speaker:

create a medicinal outcome.

Speaker:

Over time, I think the

Speaker:

research over touts it.

Speaker:

And I think that people, you know, they

Speaker:

should be wise about where they're

Speaker:

getting the fish oil from.

Speaker:

Yeah, no, I couldn't agree.

Speaker:

I mean, when you start looking at those

Speaker:

totox values on a fish oil test, and the

Speaker:

oxidation in them is just nuts.

Speaker:

And then obviously, a lot of people

Speaker:

actually can't break down fish oils into

Speaker:

their active

Speaker:

components, what are they called?

Speaker:

Not SMPs?

Speaker:

Yeah, well, there's going from your

Speaker:

arachnidonic or oleic acids.

Speaker:

And the problem with fads too, is you

Speaker:

can't break that down.

Speaker:

That's the genetic.

Speaker:

So it's like that's part of the problem.

Speaker:

Once again, that's why I want that

Speaker:

genetics test, you know?

Speaker:

Yeah, no, completely.

Speaker:

Yeah, that's going to bite me.

Speaker:

I'll probably I'll send an email one in

Speaker:

the morning when I remember what I'm

Speaker:

trying to sort of jump to.

Speaker:

Anyway, okay, next one.

Speaker:

Say someone drops 100 million into your

Speaker:

lab tomorrow to run a

Speaker:

large scale clinical trial.

Speaker:

What are you spending that money on?

Speaker:

A large scale clinical trial.

Speaker:

I'm going to go stem cell H-BOT treatment

Speaker:

used in unison on almost any

Speaker:

disease, IV and injectable, um,

Speaker:

using in conjunction

Speaker:

with functional medicine.

Speaker:

The clinic I want to make that I'm going

Speaker:

to make soon with IV stem cell, that's

Speaker:

where I'm going to go with peptides

Speaker:

together, bringing you in for a week,

Speaker:

lots of oxygen, the oxygen

Speaker:

is a healer and it can't hurt.

Speaker:

That's why we need to just

Speaker:

blast people with oxygen, right?

Speaker:

And, and I believe that if we create

Speaker:

centers that allow people to get

Speaker:

corresponding treatments in unison in a

Speaker:

short period of time and get them back in

Speaker:

their life and then get them a coach to

Speaker:

work the rest of the process, I believe

Speaker:

that that is the future.

Speaker:

So my first clinic that's going to

Speaker:

approach this is, uh, is

Speaker:

coming very, very, very soon.

Speaker:

I often wonder if I just sent everybody a

Speaker:

male to my transportable H-BOT, which is

Speaker:

hyperbaric in case anybody knows, and you

Speaker:

did anything with H-BOT in conjunction.

Speaker:

What could the outcomes be?

Speaker:

And, but I believe stem cells and oxygen

Speaker:

exposed at the same time.

Speaker:

I believe very heavily that that is a

Speaker:

massive part of our future.

Speaker:

Yeah, no, no, I couldn't agree more.

Speaker:

I think there might be a few

Speaker:

contraindication to some viruses like BOT

Speaker:

and they learned something as

Speaker:

far as they know you are right.

Speaker:

Active.

Speaker:

You are correct.

Speaker:

Yeah, you are correct.

Speaker:

In fact, it happened to me.

Speaker:

I did stem cells recently had gotten

Speaker:

COVID and it put me

Speaker:

back in a full action.

Speaker:

It made me very sick.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

And again, that just speaks to your, uh,

Speaker:

your, your understanding of the subject

Speaker:

matter and, and knowing the

Speaker:

order of operations again.

Speaker:

Anyway.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

Final one.

Speaker:

Um, and I'll, I'll

Speaker:

actually put that to Dr.

Speaker:

Dale Khan, who I'm sure

Speaker:

you are familiar with.

Speaker:

I'll be chatting to him in a few weeks

Speaker:

and I'd love to get his take on that.

Speaker:

But anyway, um, cold therapy

Speaker:

versus sawn for overall health.

Speaker:

It depends what stage.

Speaker:

Okay.

Speaker:

If you've been highly chronically

Speaker:

inflamed for a very, very long time, he

Speaker:

activates phase one immune function.

Speaker:

So we want it.

Speaker:

We want to stay away from it and use cold

Speaker:

shock proteins in the acute and halfway

Speaker:

through the subacute phase.

Speaker:

Once we've achieved a level of

Speaker:

inflammation, as it starts to come down,

Speaker:

the detox pathways are more open, right?

Speaker:

And then we can start applying contrast

Speaker:

where we apply them together, usually in

Speaker:

some form of a 10 minutes heat to two

Speaker:

minutes cold, and you can

Speaker:

run rounds of it if you want.

Speaker:

But I'm telling everybody, I'm begging

Speaker:

people to understand, I

Speaker:

know you don't want this,

Speaker:

but cold therapy is the primary way that

Speaker:

we should be attacking most problems that

Speaker:

are in the chronic phase in the

Speaker:

preventative phase, more heat, but in the

Speaker:

chronic phase, more cold and truthfully

Speaker:

putting them together kind of mitigates

Speaker:

the risk of the

Speaker:

downside of any one of them.

Speaker:

And I believe very heavily we use cold

Speaker:

therapy and undoubtedly is an

Speaker:

incredible, incredible tool.

Speaker:

Yeah, no, it's amazing.

Speaker:

And people just get again, it speaks to

Speaker:

what you were talking about earlier,

Speaker:

people getting hooked up on one modality.

Speaker:

So one is going to hear all your issues.

Speaker:

If you're going to chronically

Speaker:

overexpressed immune system and you blast

Speaker:

a lot of heat at it, all of a sudden,

Speaker:

you've got a histamine reaction and

Speaker:

people sort of get sort of lost in this

Speaker:

sort of, why do I feel worse?

Speaker:

That's why right now, when we're under

Speaker:

record heat, this is why immune problems

Speaker:

are going to get, as we get hotter,

Speaker:

immune problems are

Speaker:

going to get way worse.

Speaker:

So global warming is going to create more

Speaker:

medical issues than we realize.

Speaker:

And so that's why, and you know, that's

Speaker:

one of the biggest problems, right?

Speaker:

And so what I just want people to

Speaker:

realize, anything that you do to the

Speaker:

body, anything you do to the human body,

Speaker:

the most optimal amount of time that you

Speaker:

should probably do it in general as a

Speaker:

general rule is 12 weeks.

Speaker:

Why is it 12 weeks?

Speaker:

Because the human body has grown and

Speaker:

developed and shaped its

Speaker:

DNA around seasons, right?

Speaker:

So it's used to having to acclimate to a

Speaker:

new environment and having a pro response

Speaker:

to that environment and then going into a

Speaker:

maladaptive response.

Speaker:

Think about the cold.

Speaker:

When it starts getting cold, man, all

Speaker:

kinds of good things can happen.

Speaker:

But when you stay cold too long and then

Speaker:

illness and lack of sunlight, all these

Speaker:

different things start to

Speaker:

affect, you know, death rates.

Speaker:

And then we move into spring

Speaker:

and there's all these benefits.

Speaker:

But then with spring

Speaker:

comes allergy, right?

Speaker:

So like there's a pro and a maladaptive

Speaker:

response and it happens over

Speaker:

a 12-week timeframe, right?

Speaker:

Which is about the

Speaker:

optimal amount of time.

Speaker:

So if I'm just doing cold for 12 weeks

Speaker:

and I'm getting

Speaker:

really deep into it, fine.

Speaker:

But probably at the end of 12, maybe we

Speaker:

should throw in some heat.

Speaker:

Maybe we take a break.

Speaker:

Maybe we do contrast.

Speaker:

Maybe we only do heat.

Speaker:

That's why variation is

Speaker:

the key to optimal living.

Speaker:

And it's very hard for

Speaker:

us consistent, you know,

Speaker:

structured human beings to adopt

Speaker:

variation in a meaningful sort of way.

Speaker:

But once we begin to understand what I'm

Speaker:

saying, you start to see everything that

Speaker:

way and it starts to become a little

Speaker:

easier to apply in the mastery of it.

Speaker:

Vince, you're amazing.

Speaker:

And I'm not just saying that you, you

Speaker:

understand this better

Speaker:

than almost anyone I know.

Speaker:

So thank you for the time.

Speaker:

Come and fish you.

Speaker:

That means a lot, man.

Speaker:

And you guys support Rob.

Speaker:

He's an incredible guy.

Speaker:

He's lived it.

Speaker:

I know, I know his journey.

Speaker:

I've stood alongside of him.

Speaker:

If anybody is a pursuer of truth and it

Speaker:

is genuine, it is this man.

Speaker:

So continue to listen to him as he

Speaker:

explores truth over the

Speaker:

next months and years.

Speaker:

So thanks Rob.

Speaker:

Thank you for your time, Vince.

Speaker:

Awesome.

Speaker:

See you, brother.
