WEBVTT 00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.760 - Good morning, this is OneRadioNetwork.com. 00:00:04.760 --> 00:00:09.760 The telephone number is 888-663-6386. 00:00:09.760 --> 00:00:13.180 Email patrick@oneradionetwork.com. 00:00:13.180 --> 00:00:18.960 We are listener supported, One Radio Network. 00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:20.960 - Well, good morning, welcome to part two 00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:23.600 of our little show, running just a few minutes behind. 00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:26.720 Patrick Timpone, OneRadioNetwork.com, 00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:29.320 with Dr. Ray Peat, he's a PhD, 00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:33.520 and he's on the show with us on the third Monday 00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:38.360 of each month at around 10.30 central time, 00:00:38.360 --> 00:00:43.360 and he's been at this for, Doc, what now, 35 years? 00:00:43.360 --> 00:00:46.000 You've got, has it been? 00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:46.960 - 40, 45. 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:50.960 - 40, 45 years, and you're, wow, wow. 00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:51.920 And you're feeling good? 00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:56.000 You're, did you say you're 83 revolutions around the sun? 00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:57.880 83 revolutions around the sun. 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:01.680 - Yeah, and Dr. Ray Peat drinks milk and has sugar, 00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:06.480 so you might wanna listen and see how he does that. 00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:08.160 Dr. Peat, good morning. 00:01:08.160 --> 00:01:09.280 - Good morning. 00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:12.380 - So I was just kinda asking you off the air for a second, 00:01:12.380 --> 00:01:15.280 but let's dig into this, 'cause we just had a guest 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:17.840 who was talking about the idea that these viruses, 00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:20.080 measles and herpes and all these things, 00:01:20.080 --> 00:01:23.720 we actually have, his conjecture is that we have these 00:01:23.720 --> 00:01:26.560 in our bodies already. 00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:31.320 The root canal people that we've had on have proven 00:01:31.320 --> 00:01:33.960 through biology and peer-reviewed studies 00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:36.200 that they open up these root canals, Doc, 00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:38.040 you know, these infected guys, 00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:42.580 and they find things in there like all kinds of things, 00:01:42.580 --> 00:01:47.580 from herpes to syphilis to all kinds of crazy stuff 00:01:47.580 --> 00:01:51.700 that's already in the body. 00:01:52.600 --> 00:01:57.600 Does any of that kinda balance with your whole thing? 00:01:57.600 --> 00:01:59.840 You've been at this a long time. 00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:02.720 - Yeah, have you heard of Peter Duesberg 00:02:02.720 --> 00:02:06.600 and the HIV critics? 00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:08.000 - Yeah, I mean, a little bit. 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:09.320 Tell folks who he is. 00:02:09.320 --> 00:02:14.360 - I started graduate school in biology in 1968, 00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:17.160 and I think it was in '69, 00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:21.960 Temin and Baltimore published an article 00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:28.760 saying that they had evidence that DNA 00:02:28.760 --> 00:02:32.680 could be transcribed into RNA, 00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:37.680 and RNA could, a virus could, 00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:45.760 according to the existence of that enzyme, 00:02:45.760 --> 00:02:49.400 there was a possibility for a virus to insert 00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:53.060 its, from RNA to DNA, 00:02:53.060 --> 00:02:59.680 it could leave its trace, its genes in the nucleus. 00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:05.160 And at the time, all of my molecular biology professors 00:03:05.160 --> 00:03:08.440 denied that that was possible 00:03:08.440 --> 00:03:12.680 because they had the dogma that genetic information 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:16.400 goes only from DNA to RNA to protein. 00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:20.240 And so the idea that protein could be a virus 00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:25.240 or that RNA could be integrated into the genes 00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:31.200 as a virus, RNA was not supposed to be translatable 00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:38.520 in the DNA, but it turns out that we're full of retroviruses. 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:43.400 Some people say a huge proportion of all of our genes 00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:48.400 consist of retroviruses, and that during stress, 00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:54.080 we emit these as possibly part of a curative system. 00:03:54.080 --> 00:04:02.040 In, around just a little while after that, 00:04:02.040 --> 00:04:07.080 there was an acupuncturist lent me a pamphlet 00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:10.800 he had written by a North Korean, 00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:16.880 claiming he had evidence of particles of nucleic acid 00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:22.720 circulating in our lymph, well, he said it looked like 00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:25.720 our lymphatic system, but he said it was a completely 00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:30.200 separate circulatory system, a third circulatory system 00:04:30.200 --> 00:04:33.080 carrying these virus-like particles 00:04:33.080 --> 00:04:38.080 that were actually emitted by cells to repair cells 00:04:38.080 --> 00:04:40.480 in other parts of the body. 00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:45.480 That was, he wrote that around 1965, I think. 00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:50.400 And just in the last, oh, 10 years or so, 00:04:50.400 --> 00:04:53.880 it's now recognized that we are full of these 00:04:53.880 --> 00:05:00.080 tiny particles carrying RNA and DNA and proteins 00:05:00.080 --> 00:05:05.080 emitted under stress, aging and any sort of sickness 00:05:05.080 --> 00:05:11.520 or stress cause our cells to emit particles that circulate 00:05:11.520 --> 00:05:16.960 so that they can come out of a stress tissue, 00:05:16.960 --> 00:05:21.040 carry, be carried in the blood to the bone marrow, 00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:26.040 for example, and change cells in the bone marrow 00:05:26.200 --> 00:05:29.540 so that they are able to repair the injured cell, 00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:35.160 a two-way communication of viral-like particles. 00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:39.920 And since our genome is fairly full of these 00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:44.520 viral-type particles, retroviruses, 00:05:44.520 --> 00:05:50.600 that's a very plausible idea that viruses 00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:55.600 could originate from stressed organisms. 00:05:55.960 --> 00:06:00.960 We know that epidemics originate in famines and wars 00:06:00.960 --> 00:06:06.400 and conditions that are stressing organisms. 00:06:06.400 --> 00:06:09.920 And they don't necessarily have to travel 00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:14.920 only from like the green monkey theory of AIDS, 00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:18.560 traveling to humans or the snake to monkey 00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:23.100 to cats and humans of the Chinese virus. 00:06:25.400 --> 00:06:30.400 Like 40 years ago, there were two botanists 00:06:30.400 --> 00:06:35.240 researching plant viruses at Oregon State University. 00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:40.240 And they would use pumice powder on their fingers 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:45.640 and rub the solutions of plant viruses 00:06:45.640 --> 00:06:48.440 into the leaves of plants to create 00:06:48.440 --> 00:06:50.840 the viral disease they were studying. 00:06:50.840 --> 00:06:53.020 And within a short period of time, 00:06:53.020 --> 00:06:56.680 both of those researchers came down 00:06:56.680 --> 00:07:01.680 with the same kind of rare degenerative brain disease, 00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:05.200 which to me was very suggestive 00:07:05.200 --> 00:07:10.200 that a plant virus had invaded their system. 00:07:10.200 --> 00:07:14.580 And I stopped eating raw vegetables at that point. 00:07:14.580 --> 00:07:21.160 - So if I have a virus that manifests itself 00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:25.080 to help repair something in my body, 00:07:25.080 --> 00:07:28.660 our previous guest was talking about how herpes will do, 00:07:28.660 --> 00:07:35.720 the lips may do some things like chapped and everything 00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:37.860 because the person, well, his whole thing 00:07:37.860 --> 00:07:41.980 is like the person was saying the person wants to be kissed 00:07:41.980 --> 00:07:45.980 so the lips will try to put more of these 00:07:45.980 --> 00:07:50.040 little sensitive particles out there and all that. 00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:51.420 And the herpes will actually come in 00:07:51.420 --> 00:07:56.060 and try to heal that up kind of thing. 00:07:56.060 --> 00:07:59.580 But if this is true and some of these things 00:07:59.580 --> 00:08:02.420 like come out of Patrick that are already there, 00:08:02.420 --> 00:08:05.260 they've been there forever and they manifest 00:08:05.260 --> 00:08:08.460 for a healing process that I need to go through 00:08:08.460 --> 00:08:10.200 karmically, spiritually, 00:08:10.200 --> 00:08:15.260 I can't pass those on to somebody else, can I? 00:08:15.260 --> 00:08:18.660 - Yeah, a couple of-- - Can you? 00:08:18.660 --> 00:08:21.380 - Publications in the last few years 00:08:21.380 --> 00:08:26.020 have found that within the body, 00:08:26.020 --> 00:08:29.620 it's now known that they not only go to the bone marrow 00:08:29.620 --> 00:08:32.760 to change our immune system cells, 00:08:32.760 --> 00:08:35.060 they can actually go to the gonads 00:08:35.060 --> 00:08:39.980 and enter our germ cells so they can be passed on. 00:08:39.980 --> 00:08:44.980 So it's exactly the situation that Darwin proposed 00:08:44.980 --> 00:08:49.700 with his gemmules coming from all of the body parts 00:08:49.700 --> 00:08:52.580 going in to the gonads, 00:08:52.580 --> 00:08:57.580 modifying them for the inherent acquired characteristics. 00:08:57.580 --> 00:09:03.240 But in this recent research, 00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:07.300 they've just demonstrated that the microvesicles 00:09:07.300 --> 00:09:11.860 do enter germ cells among other cells. 00:09:11.860 --> 00:09:16.860 And 80 years ago, people were talking about 00:09:19.140 --> 00:09:24.140 the strange properties that exist within a continent. 00:09:24.140 --> 00:09:31.620 They see similarities between plants 00:09:31.620 --> 00:09:36.020 and invertebrate insects and such, 00:09:36.020 --> 00:09:41.020 and the various mammals, 00:09:45.740 --> 00:09:50.140 all varieties of organisms share some properties 00:09:50.140 --> 00:09:55.140 within the continent that evolution doesn't explain those. 00:09:55.140 --> 00:09:58.820 And so they've proposed that long ago 00:09:58.820 --> 00:10:03.040 that particles, pollen, for example, 00:10:03.040 --> 00:10:06.440 carries genetic information and we breathe it. 00:10:06.440 --> 00:10:11.440 And a lab in Germany for, I guess, 00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:15.220 going back 15 years at least, 00:10:15.220 --> 00:10:20.220 has demonstrated that if you eat beef, for example, 00:10:20.220 --> 00:10:26.460 you can trace the genetic DNA patterns, 00:10:26.460 --> 00:10:34.180 actual long pieces of DNA from the beef that you ate 00:10:34.180 --> 00:10:39.780 into your bloodstream and into your cells. 00:10:39.780 --> 00:10:42.020 We're incorporating not only viruses 00:10:42.020 --> 00:10:47.020 but just cellular DNA from the various species that we eat. 00:10:47.020 --> 00:10:52.820 So it's entirely possible that when you cough on someone, 00:10:52.820 --> 00:10:58.980 for example, that they inhale not only viral infections 00:10:58.980 --> 00:11:05.640 but your DNA is all around you 00:11:05.640 --> 00:11:11.060 and anyone who contacts you is assimilating that. 00:11:11.540 --> 00:11:16.540 They've now demonstrated that a good number of people 00:11:16.540 --> 00:11:23.660 have been tested and after death, 00:11:23.660 --> 00:11:28.660 they can test a woman's brain tissue, for example, 00:11:28.660 --> 00:11:34.140 and find the DNA traces in her brain and other tissues 00:11:34.140 --> 00:11:38.260 of each of her previous husbands. 00:11:38.260 --> 00:11:39.100 - Wow, wow. 00:11:41.300 --> 00:11:46.300 - So DNA is much more pervasive than we usually think. 00:11:46.300 --> 00:11:52.460 - Well, spiritually, it really kind of makes sense, 00:11:52.460 --> 00:11:54.060 isn't it, if you have the idea, 00:11:54.060 --> 00:11:55.500 if you believe in reincarnations, 00:11:55.500 --> 00:11:57.460 I do, in past lives, in karma, 00:11:57.460 --> 00:12:01.780 and we reincarnate with somebody for a certain experience 00:12:01.780 --> 00:12:03.900 and they have these things that we share. 00:12:03.900 --> 00:12:06.180 I mean, that all kind of makes sense to me. 00:12:06.180 --> 00:12:07.940 - Yeah. - You know what I'm saying? 00:12:07.940 --> 00:12:09.220 It kind of makes sense. 00:12:09.220 --> 00:12:11.620 It's like there's no accidents kind of thing. 00:12:11.620 --> 00:12:17.180 - It's pretty much a continuous string 00:12:17.180 --> 00:12:20.240 of information, of genetic material. 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.260 (laughing) 00:12:22.260 --> 00:12:26.420 - So was Darwin onto something or how far off was he? 00:12:26.420 --> 00:12:29.860 - Oh, he had all of the principles down. 00:12:29.860 --> 00:12:33.060 He just didn't know the details, 00:12:33.060 --> 00:12:35.300 didn't know there was such a thing as DNA, 00:12:35.300 --> 00:12:37.740 but he had the idea right. 00:12:37.740 --> 00:12:40.380 - Yeah, he was onto it. 00:12:40.380 --> 00:12:42.300 Dr. Ray Peat is with us, 00:12:42.300 --> 00:12:44.700 Patrick Timpone, OneRadioNetwork.com. 00:12:44.700 --> 00:12:46.740 We have lots of questions, we always do. 00:12:46.740 --> 00:12:49.220 He has a PhD in biology, University of Oregon, 00:12:49.220 --> 00:12:53.100 way back where he specialized in physiology. 00:12:53.100 --> 00:12:54.620 He taught University of Oregon, 00:12:54.620 --> 00:12:56.860 Urbana College, Montana State University. 00:12:56.860 --> 00:12:59.700 He's down in Mexico, nutritional counseling, 00:12:59.700 --> 00:13:02.580 and so he's been around for quite a while, 00:13:02.580 --> 00:13:06.160 for 45 years, if you have a question or two. 00:13:06.160 --> 00:13:09.980 So what kinds of questions have you been getting 00:13:09.980 --> 00:13:12.260 about this whole corona thing 00:13:12.260 --> 00:13:14.380 and what kind of insights do you have 00:13:14.380 --> 00:13:17.620 for our audience for March 16th? 00:13:17.620 --> 00:13:22.340 Looks like, who knows, could be the still long time 00:13:22.340 --> 00:13:24.380 to go with this country. 00:13:24.380 --> 00:13:25.520 Do you have any opinions on that, 00:13:25.520 --> 00:13:27.980 where you think this thing is going? 00:13:27.980 --> 00:13:32.580 - Oh, yeah, I sort of sympathize with Trump 00:13:32.580 --> 00:13:37.580 that I think the CDC has been helping 00:13:37.580 --> 00:13:42.280 a couple of drug companies to increase 00:13:42.280 --> 00:13:45.740 their share of value, skyrocketing share prices 00:13:45.740 --> 00:13:48.220 of the vaccine maker. 00:13:48.220 --> 00:13:52.660 And both World Health Organization and CDC 00:13:52.660 --> 00:13:57.660 have that connection with the vaccine industry. 00:13:58.500 --> 00:14:03.500 And a lot of people have been exposed for corruption, 00:14:03.500 --> 00:14:07.740 but no one is doing anything about it. 00:14:07.740 --> 00:14:13.580 So in a typical year, the CDC has said 00:14:13.580 --> 00:14:18.580 that an average of about 40,000 Americans die of the flu. 00:14:18.580 --> 00:14:23.820 So now they're getting excited when a few dozen people die. 00:14:25.020 --> 00:14:29.260 It is out of proportion to what they claim 00:14:29.260 --> 00:14:33.420 to be the usual annual mortality from flu. 00:14:33.420 --> 00:14:36.660 - Yeah, and is it true that most of these people, 00:14:36.660 --> 00:14:39.180 when they call the flu, it's really, it's a pneumonia, 00:14:39.180 --> 00:14:42.780 kind of goes in the lungs and does that whole thing? 00:14:42.780 --> 00:14:47.780 - Yeah, and the way the CDC has built up the market 00:14:47.780 --> 00:14:54.060 for flu vaccines is to call anyone who dies 00:14:55.060 --> 00:15:00.060 of pneumonia a death from influenza. 00:15:00.060 --> 00:15:05.180 But a very old person, say a hundred year old person 00:15:05.180 --> 00:15:11.460 without any particular sickness might just eat 00:15:11.460 --> 00:15:17.540 too much raw cabbage or something that gives them gas. 00:15:17.540 --> 00:15:19.780 And that will cause pneumonia. 00:15:21.220 --> 00:15:26.220 So people dying of pneumonia can't be counted as flu death. 00:15:26.220 --> 00:15:29.940 So CDC has been fudging on that. 00:15:29.940 --> 00:15:37.020 But it happens that over 10 years ago, 00:15:37.020 --> 00:15:42.620 the coronavirus was known to simply activate 00:15:42.620 --> 00:15:49.420 the well-known inflammation systems, 00:15:49.580 --> 00:15:53.180 the angiotensin system. 00:15:53.180 --> 00:15:58.180 For decades, we've had the angiotensin receptor blockers 00:15:58.180 --> 00:16:00.640 and ACE inhibitors. 00:16:00.640 --> 00:16:05.540 The angiotensin converting enzyme produces 00:16:05.540 --> 00:16:14.580 the inflammatory protein that causes blood pressure 00:16:14.580 --> 00:16:16.740 to rise and so on. 00:16:16.740 --> 00:16:21.020 And there's a close interaction between serotonin 00:16:21.020 --> 00:16:22.700 and angiotensin. 00:16:22.700 --> 00:16:28.580 And those are both well-studied causes 00:16:28.580 --> 00:16:34.500 of aging-related inflammation. 00:16:34.500 --> 00:16:39.500 So your angiotensin exposure and production 00:16:39.500 --> 00:16:44.020 will increase in old age. 00:16:44.020 --> 00:16:47.700 And that increases your likelihood 00:16:47.700 --> 00:16:50.420 of getting pneumonia from anything. 00:16:50.420 --> 00:16:53.300 It's a general inflammatory system 00:16:53.300 --> 00:16:57.580 that increases contraction of blood vessels 00:16:57.580 --> 00:17:02.580 and risk of clotting and fatigue, 00:17:02.580 --> 00:17:09.100 interfering with energy production and so on. 00:17:09.100 --> 00:17:13.180 And the people who are dying at a very high rate 00:17:14.020 --> 00:17:19.020 from the coronavirus are those who already are suffering 00:17:19.020 --> 00:17:22.780 from circulatory disease, hypertension, 00:17:22.780 --> 00:17:24.940 heart disease, and stroke. 00:17:24.940 --> 00:17:29.940 And so they already have an active angiotensin system. 00:17:29.940 --> 00:17:36.380 And the virus finds an environment 00:17:36.380 --> 00:17:40.300 already going in the direction. 00:17:40.300 --> 00:17:45.300 It happens that the angiotensin converting enzyme number two. 00:17:45.300 --> 00:17:51.180 - Yes, ACE2, ACE2, yeah. 00:17:51.180 --> 00:17:56.180 - It's the receptor for the virus. 00:17:56.180 --> 00:18:00.220 The virus attaches to that in the process 00:18:00.220 --> 00:18:04.700 of entering a cell and becoming infective. 00:18:04.700 --> 00:18:09.700 And ACE2 is the enzyme that undoes the infection 00:18:09.700 --> 00:18:12.780 and does the work of ACE itself. 00:18:12.780 --> 00:18:17.780 ACE produces angiotensin, 00:18:17.780 --> 00:18:21.980 and ACE2 then destroys angiotensin. 00:18:21.980 --> 00:18:26.780 So what the virus does in binding to ACE2 00:18:26.780 --> 00:18:31.780 seems to be inactivating the inactivator of angiotensin. 00:18:31.780 --> 00:18:38.180 That leaves ACE free to make angiotensin, 00:18:38.180 --> 00:18:43.180 which then doesn't have any way out. 00:18:43.180 --> 00:18:48.900 So it accumulates, causing all of the dry cough, 00:18:48.900 --> 00:18:54.540 the high fever, increased hypertension, 00:18:54.540 --> 00:18:56.540 and stroke, and so on. 00:18:56.540 --> 00:18:58.620 - Someone was on the show conjecturing 00:18:58.620 --> 00:19:03.620 that Oriental people tend to have more of these ACE2 guys 00:19:03.620 --> 00:19:06.500 in their body. 00:19:06.500 --> 00:19:08.160 Is it possible? 00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:13.160 - If it's ACE2, yeah, that would let them-- 00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:14.340 - Be more vulnerable. 00:19:14.340 --> 00:19:16.820 - Be a better target for the virus, 00:19:16.820 --> 00:19:21.820 but it would also suggest that having that without the virus 00:19:21.820 --> 00:19:29.220 would be more resistant to the age-related inflammation. 00:19:29.220 --> 00:19:31.060 - I kind of lost you there. 00:19:31.060 --> 00:19:34.860 - Since that's the protective enzyme, 00:19:34.860 --> 00:19:37.620 the ACE2 destroys angiotensin, 00:19:37.620 --> 00:19:41.720 if you have a lot of it, you're like a young person. 00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:44.220 Young people have more of that, 00:19:44.220 --> 00:19:48.080 and so are less susceptible to the virus, 00:19:48.080 --> 00:19:52.140 but also to age-related degenerative diseases. 00:19:52.140 --> 00:19:57.760 - So why do you think there was so much going on 00:19:57.760 --> 00:19:59.260 in this Wuhan place? 00:19:59.260 --> 00:20:03.300 I mean, can we conjecture that from where you sit? 00:20:03.300 --> 00:20:04.620 - What was the question? 00:20:04.620 --> 00:20:07.300 - Why was there so many people affected, 00:20:07.300 --> 00:20:09.660 like in this Wuhan city where-- 00:20:09.660 --> 00:20:13.900 - Oh, well, have you heard about the military games? 00:20:13.900 --> 00:20:16.100 - Of course, yes, of course. 00:20:16.100 --> 00:20:20.700 - Yeah, the American soldiers left 00:20:20.700 --> 00:20:24.180 exactly 14 days before the outbreak. 00:20:24.180 --> 00:20:28.140 - Oh, I hadn't heard that, really? 00:20:28.140 --> 00:20:33.060 - South Korean and Taiwan virologists 00:20:33.060 --> 00:20:37.820 have traced the gene pattern back, 00:20:37.820 --> 00:20:41.180 find that in the US, 00:20:41.180 --> 00:20:45.380 there are five different strains of the coronavirus. 00:20:45.380 --> 00:20:48.880 The Wuhan strain is just one of those, 00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:53.780 and they say logically, 00:20:53.780 --> 00:20:57.900 you can have derived the Wuhan 00:20:57.900 --> 00:21:01.540 from one of those pre-existing five strains, 00:21:01.540 --> 00:21:06.380 but you wouldn't have, at this time, 00:21:06.380 --> 00:21:12.420 five descendants, and the inheritance goes the other way, 00:21:12.420 --> 00:21:17.460 that the Wuhan strain is like a branch on the tree, 00:21:17.460 --> 00:21:24.580 and the preceding varieties of the virus 00:21:24.580 --> 00:21:28.380 were existing in the US. 00:21:28.380 --> 00:21:30.140 - Already. - Already. 00:21:30.140 --> 00:21:33.900 - And many of us already have these guys in there, right? 00:21:33.900 --> 00:21:34.740 - Yeah. - Yeah. 00:21:34.740 --> 00:21:41.260 - And you know the CDC patented the coronavirus 17 years ago. 00:21:41.260 --> 00:21:43.240 - Oh, they did, good for them. 00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:47.300 - And research was being done at Fort Detrick, 00:21:47.300 --> 00:21:52.100 supposedly creating pathogens 00:21:52.100 --> 00:21:55.740 to create vaccines to counter them. 00:21:55.740 --> 00:21:59.100 So the suggestion has been made 00:21:59.100 --> 00:22:03.060 that there was an accidental release of that, 00:22:03.060 --> 00:22:08.060 and an article in Nature years ago said, 00:22:08.060 --> 00:22:13.180 people have been quoting, 00:22:13.180 --> 00:22:17.740 well, the recent comment on that old article 00:22:17.740 --> 00:22:21.360 was that people are citing this article 00:22:21.360 --> 00:22:23.740 to indicate that the virus originated 00:22:23.740 --> 00:22:25.780 at the Fort Detrick lab. 00:22:27.700 --> 00:22:28.900 That couldn't be possible 00:22:28.900 --> 00:22:33.900 because it would incriminate Fort Detrick, basically. 00:22:33.900 --> 00:22:37.620 - Sure, right, but it's possible, in your opinion, 00:22:37.620 --> 00:22:40.380 that it was a bioweapon thing. 00:22:40.380 --> 00:22:42.180 And I guess it could be very possible 00:22:42.180 --> 00:22:45.260 that this was a whole controlled release thing 00:22:45.260 --> 00:22:48.660 for all kinds of political reasons. 00:22:48.660 --> 00:22:53.660 - Yeah, yeah, they shut down the lab in July or August, 00:22:55.740 --> 00:22:59.900 and then there was the epidemic of lung damage 00:22:59.900 --> 00:23:05.540 or pneumonia blamed on vaping poisons, 00:23:05.540 --> 00:23:10.540 but then shortly after that, the Wuhan episode. 00:23:10.540 --> 00:23:15.780 - So some of these strains were lab-created. 00:23:15.780 --> 00:23:21.180 Does that pose a more substantial problem 00:23:21.180 --> 00:23:24.560 for the human immune system to deal with it 00:23:24.560 --> 00:23:26.660 if it's coming from outside of them? 00:23:26.660 --> 00:23:28.780 But it could be already in there anyway. 00:23:28.780 --> 00:23:30.660 I'm kind of confused. 00:23:30.660 --> 00:23:33.660 - Well, in the lab, you can accelerate 00:23:33.660 --> 00:23:40.860 evolutionary changes and make very improbable things 00:23:40.860 --> 00:23:45.740 that might never statistically happen in a living organism. 00:23:45.740 --> 00:23:49.180 - Which makes it just not easy 00:23:49.180 --> 00:23:52.060 for the human body to work with it 00:23:52.060 --> 00:23:54.420 because evolution, you just kind of figure it out 00:23:54.420 --> 00:23:56.340 as you go with these viruses 00:23:56.340 --> 00:23:59.540 that are theoretically everywhere, right, these viruses? 00:23:59.540 --> 00:24:04.540 - Yeah, and in these labs, researching pathogens, 00:24:04.540 --> 00:24:09.940 creating pathogens to imagine an attack 00:24:09.940 --> 00:24:14.020 and how to create a vaccine to it, 00:24:14.020 --> 00:24:21.160 the pathogens they create are more imaginative, 00:24:21.160 --> 00:24:23.500 I think, than nature. 00:24:24.340 --> 00:24:29.340 - Yeah, I mean, so I guess it's evident 00:24:29.340 --> 00:24:31.980 that somebody's gonna come out 00:24:31.980 --> 00:24:34.460 with a vaccine for this thing soon, right? 00:24:34.460 --> 00:24:37.820 And they'll probably then want everybody to get it 00:24:37.820 --> 00:24:39.300 or sell it or-- 00:24:39.300 --> 00:24:43.700 - Yeah, that's why the stock prices 00:24:43.700 --> 00:24:47.260 of that vaccine company have gone up so much 00:24:47.260 --> 00:24:51.300 because they say they're close to coming 00:24:51.300 --> 00:24:52.820 to the market with it. 00:24:52.820 --> 00:24:57.820 But the trouble is that ever since before the swine flu, 00:24:57.820 --> 00:25:03.700 the guy that got fired for exposing 00:25:03.700 --> 00:25:06.600 the non-existence of the swine flu, 00:25:06.600 --> 00:25:12.900 he was warning that the whole thing is pointless 00:25:12.900 --> 00:25:17.300 because flu viruses mutate faster 00:25:17.300 --> 00:25:22.220 than you can create a vaccine and test it for safety. 00:25:23.220 --> 00:25:26.940 So by the time you can show that a vaccine 00:25:26.940 --> 00:25:31.660 is effective and safe, there'll be no flu left to-- 00:25:31.660 --> 00:25:33.580 - To do, to do anything with. 00:25:33.580 --> 00:25:34.420 - Yeah. 00:25:34.420 --> 00:25:41.260 - So, I mean, because you would have to make a flu virus 00:25:41.260 --> 00:25:45.740 a year before the flu season anyway, right? 00:25:45.740 --> 00:25:49.660 - Yeah, yeah, so if the lab was very clever, 00:25:49.660 --> 00:25:54.660 they could produce the disease a year ahead and then-- 00:25:54.660 --> 00:25:55.900 - Put that one out there. 00:25:55.900 --> 00:25:56.740 - Yeah. 00:25:56.740 --> 00:26:00.020 - What do you think, there's been people around 00:26:00.020 --> 00:26:02.420 over the years that have conjectured 00:26:02.420 --> 00:26:05.460 that this HIV thing is not really a virus 00:26:05.460 --> 00:26:08.420 that you can see and it's just not there. 00:26:08.420 --> 00:26:09.900 And there's a German Supreme Court 00:26:09.900 --> 00:26:12.420 that just uphold a biologist's claim, 00:26:12.420 --> 00:26:14.460 this article that we put on our website, 00:26:14.460 --> 00:26:16.460 that measles virus does not exist. 00:26:16.460 --> 00:26:18.500 It just doesn't exist. 00:26:18.500 --> 00:26:23.500 - Yeah, but I've followed Peter Duisburg's argument closely 00:26:23.500 --> 00:26:27.940 now for 35 or 40 years. 00:26:27.940 --> 00:26:32.460 He has never been proven wrong. 00:26:32.460 --> 00:26:38.340 He lost his research grants and is now officially 00:26:38.340 --> 00:26:43.460 out of the science world because he persists 00:26:43.460 --> 00:26:44.580 with his evidence. 00:26:47.940 --> 00:26:49.020 - And what evidence is that? 00:26:49.020 --> 00:26:51.660 Let's recap, what evidence has Duisburg said 00:26:51.660 --> 00:26:52.940 for the last 40 years? 00:26:52.940 --> 00:26:59.380 - He says it's the genetic DNA strip is a retrovirus. 00:26:59.380 --> 00:27:05.980 He says it's a harmless retrovirus 00:27:05.980 --> 00:27:08.620 and we're full of such DNA. 00:27:08.620 --> 00:27:12.260 When we're under stress, it shows up in the blood. 00:27:12.260 --> 00:27:14.520 So you can have a blood test for it, 00:27:14.520 --> 00:27:18.780 but all it's showing is that you're a stressed individual. 00:27:18.780 --> 00:27:25.140 And that's just one of many pieces of DNA 00:27:25.140 --> 00:27:31.540 that shows up in this cloud. 00:27:31.540 --> 00:27:35.140 At the time he was presenting his argument, 00:27:35.140 --> 00:27:39.900 this other information of microvesicles carrying DNA 00:27:39.900 --> 00:27:44.420 and RNA all through the body every time we're under stress. 00:27:44.880 --> 00:27:49.880 That just wasn't known except to the acupuncture world. 00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:56.360 But it's now a common knowledge that stress causes 00:27:56.360 --> 00:28:01.240 retrovirus material to explode into the bloodstream 00:28:01.240 --> 00:28:05.360 so you can find it and sell a blood test 00:28:05.360 --> 00:28:09.920 for just about anything you can imagine. 00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:12.020 - So which follows then with some people, 00:28:12.020 --> 00:28:15.480 they go through this quote, flu season unquote, 00:28:15.480 --> 00:28:17.660 and they're stressed or worry and angst 00:28:17.660 --> 00:28:18.880 and they'll come up with something 00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:21.840 where somebody else won't because it's already there 00:28:21.840 --> 00:28:23.780 and it just manifests itself. 00:28:23.780 --> 00:28:28.780 - Yeah, and people have tested blood samples taken 00:28:28.780 --> 00:28:35.760 in army recruits decades before anyone suggested 00:28:35.760 --> 00:28:40.820 that there was AIDS or HIV virus. 00:28:40.820 --> 00:28:43.080 From the 1960s for example, 00:28:43.080 --> 00:28:48.080 and giving the standard DNA analysis to those blood samples, 00:28:48.080 --> 00:28:55.800 every year tested, half percent of the population 00:28:55.800 --> 00:29:00.100 tested positive for AIDS. 00:29:00.100 --> 00:29:05.460 Every year, as far back as they had blood samples, 00:29:06.800 --> 00:29:10.860 0.5% has tested positive. 00:29:10.860 --> 00:29:15.140 And more recently, when you go across 00:29:15.140 --> 00:29:18.740 and actually look at random blood samples, 00:29:18.740 --> 00:29:21.400 it's still half a percent is infected. 00:29:21.400 --> 00:29:25.380 But if you pick out sick people, 00:29:25.380 --> 00:29:28.440 you'll find a very high percentage. 00:29:28.440 --> 00:29:33.580 - So I guess it's possible, this is all conjecture, 00:29:33.580 --> 00:29:36.280 but the whole thing with the gay lifestyle 00:29:36.280 --> 00:29:38.780 could have been, I don't know, 00:29:38.780 --> 00:29:42.900 just fear and angst and maybe guilt. 00:29:42.900 --> 00:29:47.900 - Peter Duisburg said it correlated exactly 00:29:47.900 --> 00:29:51.940 with their use of particular drugs. 00:29:51.940 --> 00:29:55.420 The drug causes stress and causes the virus to come out 00:29:55.420 --> 00:29:57.860 as well as causing the sickness. 00:29:57.860 --> 00:30:00.240 So there was a correspondence, 00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:02.660 but it was caused by drug use. 00:30:02.660 --> 00:30:05.740 - Oh, by giving the drug to the people. 00:30:05.740 --> 00:30:06.660 - Oh, yeah. 00:30:06.660 --> 00:30:08.420 - Who tested positive. 00:30:08.420 --> 00:30:12.380 - After the treatment came out, 00:30:12.380 --> 00:30:17.060 Duisburg said, "You're creating the virus 00:30:17.060 --> 00:30:18.660 "that you're treating." 00:30:18.660 --> 00:30:22.340 But before that, he correlated 00:30:22.340 --> 00:30:26.820 the Bay Area in particular. 00:30:26.820 --> 00:30:31.820 There was a fad of using particular vasodilator drug 00:30:34.060 --> 00:30:37.620 for a pleasure experience. 00:30:37.620 --> 00:30:40.180 - Yeah, like a poppers. 00:30:40.180 --> 00:30:41.140 - Yeah, exactly. 00:30:41.140 --> 00:30:41.980 - Right, right. 00:30:41.980 --> 00:30:44.900 And how did that tie into it 00:30:44.900 --> 00:30:47.300 with the gay community, with the poppers? 00:30:47.300 --> 00:30:52.300 - That particular drug creates a very intense 00:30:52.300 --> 00:30:55.580 stress reaction that causes the release 00:30:55.580 --> 00:30:57.460 of these retroviruses. 00:30:57.460 --> 00:31:00.780 - So Duisburg argument, and you've been following him 00:31:00.780 --> 00:31:02.620 for 40 years, Duisburg? 00:31:03.740 --> 00:31:07.940 - Yeah, from his first arguments around 1982, 00:31:07.940 --> 00:31:08.780 I think it was. 00:31:08.780 --> 00:31:09.860 - My goodness. 00:31:09.860 --> 00:31:12.620 And so people that test positive, 00:31:12.620 --> 00:31:14.560 and that's a certain percentage, 00:31:14.560 --> 00:31:18.060 then they would take the AIDS drug 00:31:18.060 --> 00:31:20.220 and then that would blow the thing up. 00:31:20.220 --> 00:31:26.380 Could they pass on this thing to somebody else 00:31:26.380 --> 00:31:28.860 through sexual encounters? 00:31:28.860 --> 00:31:32.140 Probably, I guess. 00:31:32.140 --> 00:31:37.140 - The same way a mother passes on these microvesicles, 00:31:37.140 --> 00:31:39.300 it's a normal thing. 00:31:39.300 --> 00:31:40.140 - To pass them. 00:31:40.140 --> 00:31:43.220 - Whatever is circulating in your bloodstream 00:31:43.220 --> 00:31:46.540 to show up in the egg or the sperm. 00:31:46.540 --> 00:31:47.380 - Right. 00:31:47.380 --> 00:31:49.380 Whoa. 00:31:49.380 --> 00:31:53.020 Dr. Peat is with us, Patrick Timpone. 00:31:53.020 --> 00:31:54.460 Dr. Peat, stay right there. 00:31:54.460 --> 00:31:56.620 We're gonna take a quick little break here. 00:31:56.620 --> 00:32:02.020 Well, please tell folks about One Radio Network, 00:32:02.020 --> 00:32:03.060 'cause you heard the last show, 00:32:03.060 --> 00:32:06.740 and now this show, you hear things that are just different 00:32:06.740 --> 00:32:10.780 from what you hear around the rest of the world, 00:32:10.780 --> 00:32:12.860 and we like that, because that's where we're trying 00:32:12.860 --> 00:32:14.860 to just keep digging and digging. 00:32:14.860 --> 00:32:16.700 We're not saying that every guest has the truth, 00:32:16.700 --> 00:32:18.140 the whole truth, nothing but the truth, 00:32:18.140 --> 00:32:22.860 but it's up for you to make your own decision about that, 00:32:22.860 --> 00:32:25.380 judge the people and their experience and where they've been 00:32:25.380 --> 00:32:28.580 and how this might fit into your life or not. 00:32:28.580 --> 00:32:32.300 Patrick Timpone, oneradionetwork.com. 00:32:32.300 --> 00:32:33.980 Previously with Peter Ragnar, 00:32:33.980 --> 00:32:37.420 who's a great example of staying young and healthy, 00:32:37.420 --> 00:32:40.380 we asked him what kinds of things he takes. 00:32:40.380 --> 00:32:45.380 -

Okay. 00:37:59.440 --> 00:38:00.480 - Okay. 00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:02.000 Here is from Amy. 00:38:02.000 --> 00:38:04.520 I broke three bones on my left shoulder on Friday, 00:38:04.520 --> 00:38:07.240 March 6, fractured the right knee. 00:38:07.240 --> 00:38:10.140 I used Tabasco for topical pain relief. 00:38:10.140 --> 00:38:11.320 It's working for me. 00:38:11.320 --> 00:38:14.520 What can I do to aid in the speeding up of healing? 00:38:14.520 --> 00:38:16.360 I'm not planning on surgery. 00:38:16.360 --> 00:38:19.360 Have you used any magnets, Dr. Peat? 00:38:19.360 --> 00:38:20.420 Have you ever used magnets? 00:38:20.420 --> 00:38:23.660 And what else can she put on this guy topically 00:38:23.660 --> 00:38:25.200 to help heal or internally? 00:38:25.200 --> 00:38:31.840 - The Tabasco idea is a traditional medical idea 00:38:31.840 --> 00:38:35.020 to increase circulation. 00:38:35.020 --> 00:38:36.480 I think it does work. 00:38:37.620 --> 00:38:42.620 Ultrasound, gentle, low energy, low frequency ultrasound 00:38:42.620 --> 00:38:48.980 greatly accelerates bone healing. 00:38:48.980 --> 00:38:53.980 You can get a cheap apparatus for, 00:38:53.980 --> 00:38:56.220 I think, around $100. 00:38:56.220 --> 00:38:57.480 - Yes, yes you can. 00:38:57.480 --> 00:39:02.340 - And applying that a little bit every day 00:39:03.380 --> 00:39:06.980 does internally, it probably imitates 00:39:06.980 --> 00:39:10.140 the action of the Tabasco sauce. 00:39:10.140 --> 00:39:15.140 And red light has a similar increase. 00:39:15.140 --> 00:39:22.020 Open blood vessels and accelerate energy production 00:39:22.020 --> 00:39:23.720 and speed healing. 00:39:23.720 --> 00:39:27.280 - Does it have to be some fancy red light 00:39:27.280 --> 00:39:30.940 with the particular, or it could just be the chicken lamps, 00:39:30.940 --> 00:39:32.660 the ones that we use, right? 00:39:32.660 --> 00:39:35.680 - Yeah, sunlight is best because it increases 00:39:35.680 --> 00:39:38.580 your vitamin D, which is the other 00:39:38.580 --> 00:39:41.060 essential bone healing factor. 00:39:41.060 --> 00:39:45.140 - Yeah, I was diagnosed with an X-ray 00:39:45.140 --> 00:39:50.140 with a little bone spur on C4, C5 kind of thing. 00:39:50.140 --> 00:39:52.300 And one of the chiropractors recommended 00:39:52.300 --> 00:39:54.660 one of those ultrasound machines 00:39:54.660 --> 00:39:58.700 to help that whole thing just kind of normalize itself. 00:39:58.700 --> 00:40:02.100 And I don't know, I think it was like 150 bucks. 00:40:02.100 --> 00:40:03.020 It was really nice. 00:40:03.020 --> 00:40:06.860 And they're easy to use too, aren't they? 00:40:06.860 --> 00:40:11.860 - Yeah, they accelerate wound healing in general. 00:40:11.860 --> 00:40:15.380 Someone found that infected tonsils healed up 00:40:15.380 --> 00:40:18.780 when they put an ultrasound probe on them. 00:40:18.780 --> 00:40:20.140 - Pretty interesting. 00:40:20.140 --> 00:40:21.340 Here's an email. 00:40:21.340 --> 00:40:24.260 Dr. Peat, you said that potatoes, rice, 00:40:24.260 --> 00:40:26.460 and hominy are good foods. 00:40:26.460 --> 00:40:28.320 So does that mean that you don't care 00:40:28.320 --> 00:40:31.100 about the glycemic index or load 00:40:31.100 --> 00:40:33.200 that it may be on our body? 00:40:33.200 --> 00:40:40.340 - Yeah, I'm cautious about the starches. 00:40:40.340 --> 00:40:47.980 Any starch, if you take it, even when it's well cooked, 00:40:47.980 --> 00:40:53.020 a load of starch can pass directly 00:40:53.020 --> 00:40:54.500 into your bloodstream. 00:40:54.500 --> 00:40:57.680 In mouse experiments, they could show 00:40:57.680 --> 00:41:01.800 that any of the starches with grains 00:41:01.800 --> 00:41:06.160 ranging from five microns to 100 microns, 00:41:06.160 --> 00:41:08.560 all of those could pass through the wall 00:41:08.560 --> 00:41:11.080 of the intestine into the bloodstream 00:41:11.080 --> 00:41:16.080 unless there was a lot of fat and fiber taken with it. 00:41:16.080 --> 00:41:22.760 Once these get into the bloodstream, 00:41:22.760 --> 00:41:27.000 the particles might be bigger than capillaries, 00:41:27.000 --> 00:41:31.320 and depending on the size, they can plug blood vessels 00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:36.220 and cause tissue cells to be deprived of blood supply. 00:41:36.220 --> 00:41:40.560 So I stopped eating most starches 00:41:40.560 --> 00:41:45.240 about 40 years ago when I read that research. 00:41:45.240 --> 00:41:50.800 The research has been repeated many times now, 00:41:50.800 --> 00:41:55.800 so it wasn't just one person's exceptional-- 00:41:56.280 --> 00:41:58.800 - And so then what kind of foods did you drop out 00:41:58.800 --> 00:42:02.560 after believing this research to be accurate? 00:42:02.560 --> 00:42:07.560 - Rice, wheat, potatoes, primarily. 00:42:07.560 --> 00:42:11.080 The only starch I eat now, hominy, 00:42:11.080 --> 00:42:16.080 or tortillas made with the lime process 00:42:16.080 --> 00:42:17.680 called nixtamalized corn. 00:42:17.680 --> 00:42:19.400 - Nixtamalized, yeah. 00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:20.840 What's hominy? 00:42:20.840 --> 00:42:22.400 Of course, we've heard of hominy grits. 00:42:22.400 --> 00:42:25.100 Can you actually buy hominy? 00:42:25.100 --> 00:42:27.740 That's kind of a, you could make a little cereal 00:42:27.740 --> 00:42:30.320 with butter or whatever and be good for you? 00:42:30.320 --> 00:42:31.360 Can you buy it? 00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:34.560 - Yeah, the lime breaks down the starch 00:42:34.560 --> 00:42:38.480 so that I had students experiment with it, 00:42:38.480 --> 00:42:43.480 and it didn't have any of those harmful effects 00:42:43.480 --> 00:42:45.340 that we could identify. 00:42:45.340 --> 00:42:50.520 The lime also digests the protein, 00:42:50.520 --> 00:42:52.800 makes it more nutritious. 00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:53.840 - Can you purchase hominy 00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:56.300 that's already been all limed up and ready to go? 00:42:56.300 --> 00:43:02.200 - Yeah, except the tanned, whole, wet hominy 00:43:02.200 --> 00:43:08.000 almost always comes with additives to keep it white, 00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:12.200 and the sulfite can be dangerous for a lot of people. 00:43:12.200 --> 00:43:15.680 - Can you buy organic, dry hominy that's been-- 00:43:15.680 --> 00:43:20.400 - Yeah, yeah, yeah, and you just cook it up. 00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:24.200 It's the same as hominy grits, only in big pieces. 00:43:24.200 --> 00:43:26.840 - And so generally, they've all been, 00:43:26.840 --> 00:43:30.200 that nixtamization thing has already been done? 00:43:30.200 --> 00:43:35.200 - Yeah, it isn't hominy unless it's been cooked in lime. 00:43:35.200 --> 00:43:39.840 - Do you think that Bob's Red Mill guy, 00:43:39.840 --> 00:43:42.280 does he do hominy, the pretty good place 00:43:42.280 --> 00:43:43.880 that does these kind of products? 00:43:43.880 --> 00:43:44.720 You know him? 00:43:44.720 --> 00:43:46.680 - I don't know about it. 00:43:46.680 --> 00:43:49.160 - But you can actually buy, if it's hominy, 00:43:49.160 --> 00:43:52.440 it's been, what's that word, nixtamized? 00:43:52.440 --> 00:43:53.360 - Nixtamalized. 00:43:53.360 --> 00:43:58.360 - Nixtamalized, and that takes away the whole fat thing. 00:43:58.360 --> 00:44:04.680 - It takes out most of the polyunsaturated fat, 00:44:04.680 --> 00:44:07.860 it increases the niacin content, 00:44:07.860 --> 00:44:11.960 and it predigests the starch to a great extent. 00:44:11.960 --> 00:44:14.440 - Could that be part of the issue 00:44:14.440 --> 00:44:17.480 that all of the no-grain people 00:44:17.480 --> 00:44:19.400 are not really talking about, 00:44:19.400 --> 00:44:20.880 but could be an issue with people 00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:22.840 having a hard time with eating these grains? 00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:24.880 You know, the Gundry's with the lectins 00:44:24.880 --> 00:44:26.760 and all these people. 00:44:26.760 --> 00:44:31.720 - Oh yeah, in the US Southern states, 00:44:31.720 --> 00:44:35.820 pellagra was a big problem, 00:44:35.820 --> 00:44:40.240 but because they were eating corn 00:44:40.240 --> 00:44:43.640 without the lime treatment, 00:44:43.640 --> 00:44:47.960 the Central Americans, Mexicans, South Americans, 00:44:47.960 --> 00:44:52.960 Chinese, everyone for thousands of years 00:44:52.960 --> 00:44:56.560 were cooking their grains in ashes, 00:44:56.560 --> 00:45:01.560 producing sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, 00:45:01.560 --> 00:45:06.960 or burned limestone for the lime, 00:45:06.960 --> 00:45:11.020 and they were detoxifying their grains, 00:45:11.020 --> 00:45:14.860 but at the same time that would produce 00:45:14.860 --> 00:45:19.860 a lot of niacin and reduce the leucine content. 00:45:19.860 --> 00:45:28.040 Without that, people were getting very sick with pellagra. 00:45:28.040 --> 00:45:36.520 - Can you lead us to a concise, clear way 00:45:36.520 --> 00:45:39.860 that we can do this whole lime thing at home 00:45:39.860 --> 00:45:42.960 if we want to eat some of these starches? 00:45:42.960 --> 00:45:47.960 - Yeah, you can buy powdered lime at any, 00:45:47.960 --> 00:45:54.360 I think some of the big markets like Whole Foods 00:45:54.360 --> 00:45:55.860 are probably selling it now, 00:45:55.860 --> 00:45:59.840 but for sure at any Latino market. 00:45:59.840 --> 00:46:01.500 - Powdered lime, right? 00:46:01.500 --> 00:46:06.500 - Yeah, and then if you want a big kettle, 00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:12.000 like a gallon of water, you put in maybe a pound or two 00:46:12.000 --> 00:46:18.220 of corn kernels and a big heaping tablespoon 00:46:18.220 --> 00:46:26.660 or two of the lime and boil it until the seeds swell up 00:46:26.660 --> 00:46:33.140 to about the size of an olive and get soft, 00:46:33.140 --> 00:46:38.140 and that's how many the cellulose coating 00:46:38.140 --> 00:46:43.280 separates from it at that time, 00:46:43.280 --> 00:46:48.280 so you can stir it and strain off the flaky material 00:46:48.280 --> 00:46:52.200 that isn't pleasant. 00:46:52.200 --> 00:46:55.840 - And that's how they do it in Mexico, right? 00:46:55.840 --> 00:46:57.520 'Cause they kinda know, they kinda know 00:46:57.520 --> 00:47:00.600 that it works better for the body in tortillas. 00:47:01.600 --> 00:47:03.560 - Yeah, and tastes much better. 00:47:03.560 --> 00:47:06.460 It's interesting, ordinary bread, 00:47:06.460 --> 00:47:09.880 even if you chew it for quite a while, 00:47:09.880 --> 00:47:14.760 you don't notice the sweetness from your saliva acting on it 00:47:14.760 --> 00:47:19.760 but with a tortilla or hominy, in just about 30 seconds, 00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:23.320 you can taste the sweetness appearing. 00:47:23.320 --> 00:47:24.260 - Interesting. 00:47:24.260 --> 00:47:27.240 Can you, what if you liked to make your own bread 00:47:27.240 --> 00:47:30.120 and use some heirloom wheat like einkorn or something? 00:47:30.120 --> 00:47:32.600 Could you do the whole lime thing with that? 00:47:32.600 --> 00:47:37.600 - Yeah, someone has been emailing me from Italy 00:47:37.600 --> 00:47:41.040 trying the process on all the different 00:47:41.040 --> 00:47:46.000 old traditional grains, and she says they all work very well. 00:47:46.000 --> 00:47:47.200 - So you could do the same thing, 00:47:47.200 --> 00:47:49.280 you do a gallon maybe of water, 00:47:49.280 --> 00:47:52.600 a pound of the wheat berries, einkorn, 00:47:52.600 --> 00:47:54.440 would be the old traditional one, 00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:56.640 and you do the same thing with a tablespoon of lime 00:47:56.640 --> 00:48:00.720 and boil it, and then could then make your bread from that? 00:48:00.720 --> 00:48:01.720 - Yeah. 00:48:01.720 --> 00:48:04.560 - Wow, pretty cool, pretty cool. 00:48:04.560 --> 00:48:06.200 You learned this down in Mexico, right, 00:48:06.200 --> 00:48:08.640 when you were down there for a long time? 00:48:08.640 --> 00:48:09.480 - Yeah. 00:48:09.480 --> 00:48:13.280 - So you said fat and fiber, 00:48:13.280 --> 00:48:16.000 so what if you do a baked potato and put a lot of butter 00:48:16.000 --> 00:48:20.000 and eat some fiber, some kind of psyllium 00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:23.040 or something like that, would that make it easier? 00:48:23.040 --> 00:48:25.760 - Well, the potato itself, especially if you eat 00:48:25.760 --> 00:48:28.960 the peeling, there's enough fiber in that 00:48:28.960 --> 00:48:31.560 if you have lots of cream or butter on it. 00:48:31.560 --> 00:48:34.600 - Oh, so that helps it to be more digestible. 00:48:34.600 --> 00:48:35.440 - Yeah. 00:48:35.440 --> 00:48:36.920 - Yeah. 00:48:36.920 --> 00:48:38.560 Dr. Peat, that's great stuff. 00:48:38.560 --> 00:48:42.920 Dr. Peat, should we be worried about melatonin in our food? 00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:44.800 Melatonin in our food. 00:48:44.800 --> 00:48:47.240 - No, not that I know of. 00:48:47.240 --> 00:48:51.400 It can be toxic if you buy it in a pill 00:48:51.600 --> 00:48:55.800 and take outrageous doses. 00:48:55.800 --> 00:49:00.560 10 milligrams, I think, can upset your hormones, 00:49:00.560 --> 00:49:04.920 but the physiological amount of melatonin, 00:49:04.920 --> 00:49:08.840 one milligram is safe. 00:49:08.840 --> 00:49:11.160 - Dr. Ray Peat is with us, Patrick Timpone, 00:49:11.160 --> 00:49:13.680 OneRadioNetwork.com, March 16th. 00:49:13.680 --> 00:49:16.300 Please pass on these links to everyone that you care about. 00:49:16.300 --> 00:49:19.000 Dr. Peat, you recommended drinking kale broth, 00:49:19.000 --> 00:49:21.840 but what about herbs such as tarragon or parsley 00:49:21.840 --> 00:49:24.080 or dill and so on? 00:49:24.080 --> 00:49:29.640 - Many of those are very full of allergens, 00:49:29.640 --> 00:49:33.680 so if you have any digestive problems 00:49:33.680 --> 00:49:37.840 or respiratory congestion, you should check 00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:42.160 your sensitivity to those foods. 00:49:42.160 --> 00:49:45.440 - Here's another email. 00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:49.720 You have mentioned that our teeth absorb calcium. 00:49:49.720 --> 00:49:51.840 Would washing our mouths out with lime water 00:49:51.840 --> 00:49:54.200 help restore our enamel? 00:49:54.200 --> 00:49:55.600 Well, that's a good question. 00:49:55.600 --> 00:49:59.960 - Yeah, superficial cavities, not cavities, 00:49:59.960 --> 00:50:04.960 but superficial imperfections 00:50:04.960 --> 00:50:10.120 will pick up calcium right out of the solution. 00:50:10.120 --> 00:50:15.360 Calcium phosphate crystallizes right into the solution. 00:50:15.880 --> 00:50:20.880 But the same lime solution you cook the corn in 00:50:20.880 --> 00:50:28.240 probably won't help except as a detergent effect. 00:50:28.240 --> 00:50:33.120 Baking soda is a good detergent to clean, 00:50:33.120 --> 00:50:39.080 remove the starch or sugar particles. 00:50:39.080 --> 00:50:44.440 But it needs the phosphate with the calcium 00:50:44.600 --> 00:50:49.600 for these repair processes in enamel defects. 00:50:49.600 --> 00:50:51.680 - We've been promoting a product called Pearlseum, 00:50:51.680 --> 00:50:54.960 which is from real pearls, and they seem to do that. 00:50:54.960 --> 00:50:56.120 I've seen it in my own teeth 00:50:56.120 --> 00:50:58.400 where it actually fills up little ridges. 00:50:58.400 --> 00:51:03.240 'Cause it's the kind of calcium you said it works, 00:51:03.240 --> 00:51:05.160 and I forget the name of it. 00:51:05.160 --> 00:51:07.000 - I think that's calcium carbonate. 00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:08.400 - Calcium carbonate, right. 00:51:08.400 --> 00:51:12.720 - Yeah, the first calcium to be laid down in the bones, 00:51:12.720 --> 00:51:15.280 for example, is calcium carbonate. 00:51:15.280 --> 00:51:20.280 And then as it ages and matures, it takes up the phosphate. 00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:22.560 - Wow, interesting. 00:51:22.560 --> 00:51:25.160 Cody writes in from Florida, I was listening to the show, 00:51:25.160 --> 00:51:28.160 I heard Dr. Peat O mentioned that he doesn't eat potatoes. 00:51:28.160 --> 00:51:29.120 I'm interested to know why. 00:51:29.120 --> 00:51:30.520 And I think we covered that one, right? 00:51:30.520 --> 00:51:33.360 We've already covered the potato thing. 00:51:33.360 --> 00:51:37.360 So even though potatoes with a lot of cream in the skins, 00:51:37.360 --> 00:51:40.280 you just still pass on those, knowing what you-- 00:51:41.400 --> 00:51:45.600 - Yeah, mostly for the allergenic effect 00:51:45.600 --> 00:51:49.400 of that whole family, tomatoes, eggplant, 00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:52.720 bell peppers, for example. 00:51:52.720 --> 00:51:53.880 - Oh, the whole nightshade thing, 00:51:53.880 --> 00:51:56.200 do you think there's something real with that? 00:51:56.200 --> 00:51:58.840 - Yeah, quite a few people 00:51:58.840 --> 00:52:01.340 have an allergic sensitivity to it. 00:52:01.340 --> 00:52:06.560 - Dr. Ray, Peat, here's Beth in Norton, Illinois. 00:52:06.560 --> 00:52:10.000 Do you have any theories on what would make a person 00:52:10.000 --> 00:52:12.840 susceptible to getting shingles 00:52:12.840 --> 00:52:15.700 or thoughts on how to prevent them, shingles? 00:52:15.700 --> 00:52:22.880 - Yeah, it's a stress breakout of the chickenpox virus 00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:26.560 of the herpes family. 00:52:26.560 --> 00:52:32.520 And it's probably involving those micro particles 00:52:32.520 --> 00:52:37.160 that are shed by cells under stress. 00:52:37.160 --> 00:52:42.160 And aspirin, by reducing stress and inflammation, 00:52:42.160 --> 00:52:47.800 all of the anti-inflammatory things 00:52:47.800 --> 00:52:52.000 help to prevent the cycling, 00:52:52.000 --> 00:52:56.560 recurring episodes of shingles. 00:52:56.560 --> 00:53:02.800 Once it starts, then it just has to play out 00:53:02.800 --> 00:53:05.280 over a period of a week or so. 00:53:05.280 --> 00:53:09.200 But during that time, if you do all of the anti-stress 00:53:09.200 --> 00:53:14.200 things, vitamin D, lots of milk and orange juice, 00:53:14.200 --> 00:53:22.520 some aspirin, vitamin K has some anti-inflammatory effects 00:53:22.520 --> 00:53:27.680 that protect the blood vessels. 00:53:27.680 --> 00:53:28.840 - Good old aspirin does that. 00:53:28.840 --> 00:53:32.920 So I know some of my friends out of town 00:53:32.920 --> 00:53:34.520 who go to traditional doctors, 00:53:34.520 --> 00:53:36.760 they have them on these little aspirins 00:53:36.760 --> 00:53:38.920 for this or that. 00:53:38.920 --> 00:53:40.920 Not a bad idea then? 00:53:40.920 --> 00:53:44.720 - Yeah, aspirin actually has germicidal, 00:53:44.720 --> 00:53:47.040 antiviral properties. 00:53:47.040 --> 00:53:52.600 There was a study done in Washington, D.C. 00:53:52.600 --> 00:53:57.600 of AIDS patients, giving them big doses of aspirin. 00:53:57.600 --> 00:54:00.680 And they were improving. 00:54:00.680 --> 00:54:05.680 And the study was called off despite the disappearance 00:54:05.680 --> 00:54:09.240 of the AIDS symptoms. 00:54:09.240 --> 00:54:15.600 - But going back though, if these viruses, 00:54:15.600 --> 00:54:17.920 like you've been talking about and our first guest 00:54:17.920 --> 00:54:21.080 are really doing a lot of things they're supposed to do, 00:54:21.080 --> 00:54:25.320 what would be a situation where we wanna go in 00:54:25.320 --> 00:54:29.160 and try to kill them with this or that? 00:54:29.160 --> 00:54:34.160 I'm kind of confused with that idea. 00:54:34.160 --> 00:54:36.560 - Kill which virus? 00:54:36.560 --> 00:54:38.060 - Yeah, kill the virus, right. 00:54:38.060 --> 00:54:48.040 - When your body can't integrate them, 00:54:48.040 --> 00:54:51.880 the body starts to disintegrate. 00:54:51.880 --> 00:54:55.340 It's a matter of energy. 00:54:57.000 --> 00:55:00.240 You can repair yourself and advance 00:55:00.240 --> 00:55:02.000 to the next stage of functioning 00:55:02.000 --> 00:55:05.280 if you have the energy to do it. 00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:10.100 But when you're just not using oxygen properly, 00:55:10.100 --> 00:55:13.920 so the things that create stress 00:55:13.920 --> 00:55:18.400 are those that block oxygen use 00:55:18.400 --> 00:55:22.680 and you end up producing lactic acid instead, 00:55:22.680 --> 00:55:26.160 wasting the glucose, making lactic acid. 00:55:26.160 --> 00:55:30.720 And the lactic acid accelerates the process, 00:55:30.720 --> 00:55:36.240 producing inflammation and further reducing 00:55:36.240 --> 00:55:41.100 the ability to use oxygen because that process 00:55:41.100 --> 00:55:45.980 is part of wound healing, which is a reversion 00:55:45.980 --> 00:55:50.980 to a primitive, like in the first stages 00:55:52.680 --> 00:55:57.360 of growth of the fertilized egg. 00:55:57.360 --> 00:56:02.360 It relies on a very energetic use of the energy supply, 00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:11.280 a wasteful use of oxygen to produce intensely fast growth. 00:56:11.280 --> 00:56:18.960 The lactic acid production is good during wound healing, 00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:24.160 but for the whole organism, you want to get quickly 00:56:24.160 --> 00:56:26.840 out of that stage and back to oxygen use 00:56:26.840 --> 00:56:30.000 for full energy production. 00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:35.000 And with aging and accumulated toxins and such, 00:56:35.000 --> 00:56:40.640 it becomes harder to restore the full oxidative metabolism 00:56:40.640 --> 00:56:45.880 so any little viral threat can become permanent. 00:56:47.520 --> 00:56:51.360 - So that's the argument for people in a weakened condition 00:56:51.360 --> 00:56:53.520 on meds and nursing homes and all that, 00:56:53.520 --> 00:56:59.320 that might be a case to go in and try to manipulate 00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:02.640 'cause they don't have the energy to deal with it. 00:57:02.640 --> 00:57:07.640 - Yeah, and carbon dioxide is what should be produced 00:57:07.640 --> 00:57:10.960 in producing energy rather than lactic acid. 00:57:10.960 --> 00:57:16.680 One of the things that will make it easier 00:57:16.680 --> 00:57:21.680 for, for example, a wounded or sick or aged person 00:57:21.680 --> 00:57:26.760 to restore their energy is, for example, 00:57:26.760 --> 00:57:33.360 bathing in carbon dioxide in a bathtub or a bag. 00:57:33.360 --> 00:57:37.480 You absorb it through your skin, 00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:41.880 and that increased level of carbon dioxide 00:57:43.000 --> 00:57:46.160 turns off the inflammatory process, 00:57:46.160 --> 00:57:50.520 suppresses the wasteful production of lactic acid, 00:57:50.520 --> 00:57:55.520 and the reduced lactic acid tends to turn off 00:57:55.520 --> 00:58:00.240 all of these virus release processes. 00:58:00.240 --> 00:58:03.480 - And how do we, what do we put in the bath 00:58:03.480 --> 00:58:05.360 to do the whole thing through the skin 00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:08.080 to create more carbon dioxide internally? 00:58:09.280 --> 00:58:14.160 - You absorb, they've known that in mineral springs 00:58:14.160 --> 00:58:18.200 that are rich in carbon dioxide and bicarbonates, 00:58:18.200 --> 00:58:24.840 the bicarbonate itself is turned in the surface of the skin 00:58:24.840 --> 00:58:31.160 into carbon dioxide and is absorbed into the skin 00:58:31.160 --> 00:58:35.600 even though the carbon dioxide in the bloodstream 00:58:35.600 --> 00:58:38.760 is very high normally compared to the water 00:58:38.760 --> 00:58:40.360 you're bathing in. 00:58:40.360 --> 00:58:42.920 The body has such an affinity for it, 00:58:42.920 --> 00:58:45.360 it will pull it out of the water, 00:58:45.360 --> 00:58:49.080 converting bicarbonate to carbon dioxide at the surface 00:58:49.080 --> 00:58:51.920 and then absorbing the carbon dioxide. 00:58:51.920 --> 00:59:00.080 The pure gas likewise enters the skin, 00:59:00.080 --> 00:59:04.760 dissolves in the body fluids very well. 00:59:04.760 --> 00:59:08.000 - So you're talking about actually putting baking soda 00:59:08.000 --> 00:59:08.920 in your bathtub? 00:59:08.920 --> 00:59:12.440 - Yeah, that traditional thing, 00:59:12.440 --> 00:59:15.960 a pound or so of baking soda 00:59:15.960 --> 00:59:20.020 and maybe some Epsom salts with it. 00:59:20.020 --> 00:59:25.020 But both of those, the magnesium will be absorbed better 00:59:25.020 --> 00:59:29.800 for the bicarbonate that goes into the body with it. 00:59:29.800 --> 00:59:31.280 - And that would be the argument too 00:59:31.280 --> 00:59:33.240 for a little bit of baking soda even internally 00:59:33.240 --> 00:59:34.760 if you want it. 00:59:34.760 --> 00:59:36.440 - Yeah, and on the skin. 00:59:36.440 --> 00:59:40.760 It's remarkably therapeutic. 00:59:40.760 --> 00:59:44.400 - Dr. Ray Peat is with us, Patrick Timpone, 00:59:44.400 --> 00:59:45.880 it is March 16th. 00:59:45.880 --> 00:59:48.480 Please tell folks about our show here 00:59:48.480 --> 00:59:51.760 and we have a lot of very interesting people 00:59:51.760 --> 00:59:53.280 as you can hear. 00:59:53.280 --> 00:59:55.600 What does Dr. Peat from Chris in Canada 00:59:55.600 --> 00:59:57.720 think about hearing loss? 00:59:57.720 --> 01:00:00.560 My doctor said, well, we just kind of lose 01:00:00.560 --> 01:00:02.800 some of our hearing as we get older. 01:00:02.800 --> 01:00:07.320 Is there anything I can do to reverse this? 01:00:07.320 --> 01:00:10.460 - Thyroid is the single most important thing. 01:00:10.460 --> 01:00:15.840 There have been a couple of publications 01:00:15.840 --> 01:00:20.120 showing that high estrogen damages 01:00:20.120 --> 01:00:25.120 the hair cells in the hearing apparatus. 01:00:25.120 --> 01:00:30.480 And I think prolactin along with the estrogen, 01:00:30.680 --> 01:00:32.800 you want to make sure those aren't elevated. 01:00:32.800 --> 01:00:35.280 They tend to go up with aging. 01:00:35.280 --> 01:00:40.080 And thyroid and vitamin D are among the things 01:00:40.080 --> 01:00:43.760 that prevent those types of damage 01:00:43.760 --> 01:00:47.760 to the apparatus of the inner ear. 01:00:47.760 --> 01:00:52.600 - Larry writes in, 73, male, atherosclerosis, 01:00:52.600 --> 01:00:55.360 my left carotid, how do you say that? 01:00:55.360 --> 01:00:57.960 Carotid artery, how do you say it? 01:00:57.960 --> 01:01:00.800 C-A-R-T-I-D. 01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:01.640 - Oh, carotid. 01:01:01.640 --> 01:01:03.080 - Carotid artery, sorry. 01:01:03.080 --> 01:01:04.720 100% occluded. 01:01:04.720 --> 01:01:08.160 And a year ago, my right carotid was 70% occluded. 01:01:08.160 --> 01:01:10.080 According to last week's ultrasound, 01:01:10.080 --> 01:01:11.760 my occlusion is getting worse 01:01:11.760 --> 01:01:14.720 and my doctor wants me to have an angiogram. 01:01:14.720 --> 01:01:18.160 Does Dr. Peat have any suggestions 01:01:18.160 --> 01:01:23.160 for maybe non-invasive alternative tests and or issues? 01:01:25.900 --> 01:01:28.780 He said I've used liquid ETDA, vitamin D3, 01:01:28.780 --> 01:01:32.940 vitamin DK2, nanokinase, liposomal magnesium, 01:01:32.940 --> 01:01:37.940 and but that's not helped the condition. 01:01:37.940 --> 01:01:40.500 - The process we were talking about 01:01:40.500 --> 01:01:42.660 in relation to the virus, 01:01:42.660 --> 01:01:47.660 the angiotensin system is at the root 01:01:47.660 --> 01:01:52.540 of the development of atherosclerosis. 01:01:52.540 --> 01:01:57.140 And experiments in animals and people 01:01:57.140 --> 01:02:01.100 show that you can reverse the process 01:02:01.100 --> 01:02:05.620 and start getting the plaques unloaded 01:02:05.620 --> 01:02:08.220 using the ACE inhibitors 01:02:08.220 --> 01:02:11.100 and the angiotensin receptor blockers. 01:02:11.100 --> 01:02:13.780 - What's an ACE inhibitor? 01:02:13.780 --> 01:02:17.260 - Oh, the enzyme that makes angiotensin, 01:02:17.260 --> 01:02:20.660 the first approach they had was 01:02:20.660 --> 01:02:25.660 a molecule that blocks the function of that enzyme 01:02:25.660 --> 01:02:29.060 so you don't make angiotensin 01:02:29.060 --> 01:02:33.460 but it's more immediate and complete. 01:02:33.460 --> 01:02:38.460 You can get 100% blockage of the receptor 01:02:38.460 --> 01:02:45.460 so the angiotensin stops having its harmful effect 01:02:45.460 --> 01:02:49.620 with the blocker, Losartan, for example. 01:02:50.460 --> 01:02:55.340 A recent, last week I think, article in Lancet magazine 01:02:55.340 --> 01:03:01.540 by three European doctors researching lung function 01:03:01.540 --> 01:03:06.180 warned the public not to use Losartan 01:03:06.180 --> 01:03:08.740 as the Chinese had recommended. 01:03:08.740 --> 01:03:13.740 And these European doctors, I think, 01:03:13.740 --> 01:03:17.260 failed to read enough of the research 01:03:17.260 --> 01:03:20.180 of the preceding 10 or 15 years 01:03:20.180 --> 01:03:26.100 because Losartan protects, 01:03:26.100 --> 01:03:30.020 the Chinese have good evidence that it's protective 01:03:30.020 --> 01:03:34.780 against the inflammatory processes of the virus 01:03:34.780 --> 01:03:39.780 but separate research, completely unrelated virus, 01:03:39.780 --> 01:03:44.220 shows that the molecules like Losartan 01:03:44.220 --> 01:03:46.620 help to reverse atherosclerosis. 01:03:47.540 --> 01:03:51.500 Have a very general anti-inflammatory process, 01:03:51.500 --> 01:03:52.860 even migraine headaches, 01:03:52.860 --> 01:03:57.140 it's now recognized as a very helpful thing 01:03:57.140 --> 01:04:01.300 along with serotonin receptor blockers. 01:04:01.300 --> 01:04:06.180 Serotonin and angiotensin and histamine 01:04:06.180 --> 01:04:09.700 are very closely interactive with processes 01:04:09.700 --> 01:04:12.660 like migraine and atherosclerosis. 01:04:12.660 --> 01:04:17.020 - And is Losartan a pharmaceutical med? 01:04:17.020 --> 01:04:20.860 - Yeah, it's I think the cheapest of them 01:04:20.860 --> 01:04:24.140 and among the most effective. 01:04:24.140 --> 01:04:26.180 - Can you buy like natural 01:04:26.180 --> 01:04:30.860 or take natural ACE inhibitors or angiotensin guys? 01:04:30.860 --> 01:04:34.580 - Progesterone is, the body's natural, 01:04:34.580 --> 01:04:39.580 it lowers the receptor production 01:04:40.660 --> 01:04:44.500 so it's not as immediate and powerful 01:04:44.500 --> 01:04:47.260 as these pharmaceutical drugs but-- 01:04:47.260 --> 01:04:48.100 - It works. 01:04:48.100 --> 01:04:49.180 - Yeah, it works. 01:04:49.180 --> 01:04:51.540 - So actually a progesterone cream even for a guy 01:04:51.540 --> 01:04:54.520 would help to de-plaque the body? 01:04:54.520 --> 01:04:59.340 - Yeah, slightly, not as powerfully. 01:04:59.340 --> 01:05:00.900 - How about high dose vitamin C? 01:05:00.900 --> 01:05:02.540 We've often heard that that'll do it. 01:05:02.540 --> 01:05:04.860 Any research showing that's true? 01:05:04.860 --> 01:05:10.100 - A little but it has its side effects too. 01:05:10.700 --> 01:05:12.700 - Too much, I mean what? 01:05:12.700 --> 01:05:17.700 - Yeah, the manufactured stuff is never absolutely clean 01:05:17.700 --> 01:05:24.740 and an experimenter using distilled water 01:05:24.740 --> 01:05:29.860 put a gram of reagent grade highest purity 01:05:29.860 --> 01:05:32.140 ascorbic acid into it and then put it 01:05:32.140 --> 01:05:37.140 in an electron spin resonance apparatus 01:05:37.140 --> 01:05:42.140 and showed it was as full of free radicals 01:05:42.140 --> 01:05:44.380 as a killing dose of x-rays. 01:05:44.380 --> 01:05:46.440 - Wow, really? 01:05:46.440 --> 01:05:50.700 Speaking of x-rays, if one does an x-ray 01:05:50.700 --> 01:05:53.940 or has to do or guys go out and do CT scans, 01:05:53.940 --> 01:05:57.460 are those things that we could, if we wanna do that, 01:05:57.460 --> 01:06:00.180 to minimize the ill effects of x-rays 01:06:00.180 --> 01:06:01.620 or it's just something that happens 01:06:01.620 --> 01:06:05.500 and will the body repair from any damage x-rays do? 01:06:06.700 --> 01:06:10.860 - All of the anti-inflammatory things do help. 01:06:10.860 --> 01:06:12.060 - Do they? 01:06:12.060 --> 01:06:14.580 - Losartan included. 01:06:14.580 --> 01:06:15.420 - Losartan. 01:06:15.420 --> 01:06:17.940 - It's protective against x-rays like progesterone. 01:06:17.940 --> 01:06:22.900 - Even turmeric and things like aspirin, turmeric. 01:06:22.900 --> 01:06:23.940 - Yeah, yeah. 01:06:23.940 --> 01:06:28.860 - Here is an email from Ty, 65 year old, 01:06:28.860 --> 01:06:31.940 taking two grains of natrithroid daily. 01:06:31.940 --> 01:06:35.380 He could foods have experiment with many approaches 01:06:35.380 --> 01:06:39.580 to reverse type two diabetes level. 01:06:39.580 --> 01:06:42.280 Don't want sugar meds, some ideas of what I can do? 01:06:42.280 --> 01:06:48.820 - Well, vitamin D is helpful. 01:06:48.820 --> 01:06:53.820 Vitamin K is another thing that helps to handle the calcium 01:06:53.820 --> 01:06:58.720 which helps to handle the sugar. 01:06:58.720 --> 01:07:03.660 Thyroid and vitamin D work so closely together 01:07:03.660 --> 01:07:07.180 that you can't really separate their effects. 01:07:07.180 --> 01:07:13.060 - A little plug here for Sir Thrival, Daniel Vitalis, 01:07:13.060 --> 01:07:18.060 they have a vitamin D K2 product on through any Sir Thrival. 01:07:18.060 --> 01:07:20.840 Link, very, very clean ingredients, 01:07:20.840 --> 01:07:23.740 nothing yucky in there, very good. 01:07:23.740 --> 01:07:27.420 So you get the vitamin D and the K2 as well. 01:07:27.420 --> 01:07:30.300 Some folks take these big doses of vitamin D 01:07:30.300 --> 01:07:32.340 and there's actually a company that's putting out 01:07:32.340 --> 01:07:34.980 a 50,000 kind of unit thing. 01:07:34.980 --> 01:07:39.980 In general, how do folks kind of figure out a vitamin D 01:07:39.980 --> 01:07:42.980 dosage if they want to take extra vitamin D? 01:07:42.980 --> 01:07:47.060 - During the winter, 5,000 units a day 01:07:47.060 --> 01:07:52.060 is able to bring most people up into the middle of the range. 01:07:52.060 --> 01:07:58.340 50 nanograms per milliliter, 50 to 60 01:07:58.340 --> 01:08:00.360 is a good healthy range. 01:08:02.060 --> 01:08:05.940 And for some reason, I guess doctors don't figure 01:08:05.940 --> 01:08:09.020 people are gonna take their daily vitamins 01:08:09.020 --> 01:08:13.580 so they like to prescribe these 50,000 unit doses 01:08:13.580 --> 01:08:15.540 once a month or once a week until 01:08:15.540 --> 01:08:18.140 the person gets the level up. 01:08:18.140 --> 01:08:21.840 - But would it actually hang in there all that time? 01:08:21.840 --> 01:08:23.940 I mean, 50,000? 01:08:23.940 --> 01:08:27.980 - Yeah, it's oil soluble so one dose 01:08:27.980 --> 01:08:32.980 will increase your blood level gradually 01:08:32.980 --> 01:08:36.700 because it goes first into your fat tissues 01:08:36.700 --> 01:08:40.620 and then is gradually assimilated 01:08:40.620 --> 01:08:44.900 into your circulating blood. 01:08:44.900 --> 01:08:47.060 - Downsides to having too much D? 01:08:47.060 --> 01:08:53.300 - Yeah, but it's highly exaggerated in the experiments. 01:08:55.380 --> 01:09:00.380 It takes a million units a day for many days 01:09:00.380 --> 01:09:04.980 before you get the real calcification. 01:09:04.980 --> 01:09:09.380 But a lot of people try to discourage its use 01:09:09.380 --> 01:09:14.380 by saying that you can get calcified blood vessels 01:09:14.380 --> 01:09:18.460 with fairly moderate doses. 01:09:18.460 --> 01:09:23.460 But I think the biggest misunderstanding 01:09:24.700 --> 01:09:26.980 of vitamin D and calcium is that 01:09:26.980 --> 01:09:32.580 they think that the calcium you eat 01:09:32.580 --> 01:09:34.620 and the vitamin D are going to go right 01:09:34.620 --> 01:09:36.380 into your soft tissues. 01:09:36.380 --> 01:09:40.180 But what causes calcification of the soft tissues 01:09:40.180 --> 01:09:42.820 is a failure of energy, exactly the-- 01:09:42.820 --> 01:09:43.660 - Energy. 01:09:43.660 --> 01:09:46.380 - Process that causes atherosclerosis 01:09:46.380 --> 01:09:50.060 and all of the inflammatory processes. 01:09:50.060 --> 01:09:54.620 The parathyroid hormone and aldosterone, 01:09:54.620 --> 01:09:59.620 aldosterone is part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone 01:09:59.620 --> 01:10:02.940 system, increasing your blood pressure 01:10:02.940 --> 01:10:07.940 and all of the stress-related, virus-related conditions. 01:10:07.940 --> 01:10:17.300 Parathyroid hormone and aldosterone collaborate 01:10:17.300 --> 01:10:19.940 to knock down your energy production 01:10:19.940 --> 01:10:23.260 and shift you over to lactic acid production. 01:10:23.260 --> 01:10:26.980 Parathyroid hormone, its main function 01:10:26.980 --> 01:10:30.100 is to pull calcium out of your bones 01:10:30.100 --> 01:10:34.020 for emergency use in the bloodstream. 01:10:34.020 --> 01:10:39.020 So when your aldosterone and parathyroid hormone are high, 01:10:39.020 --> 01:10:43.980 you will have increased blood calcium 01:10:43.980 --> 01:10:47.140 and the calcification of the soft tissues, 01:10:47.140 --> 01:10:51.580 which is a precursor to atherosclerosis 01:10:51.580 --> 01:10:53.260 and hardening of the arteries. 01:10:53.260 --> 01:10:59.340 But if you lower your aldosterone and parathyroid hormone 01:10:59.340 --> 01:11:03.260 by having enough calcium and salt in your diet, 01:11:03.260 --> 01:11:05.420 lots of calcium in your diet, 01:11:05.420 --> 01:11:08.860 it can be thousands of milligrams a day, 01:11:08.860 --> 01:11:12.380 will tend not to calcify your arteries 01:11:12.380 --> 01:11:15.220 but to lower the parathyroid hormone 01:11:15.220 --> 01:11:20.100 along with vitamin D, lowering the parathyroid. 01:11:20.100 --> 01:11:23.060 And when the parathyroid is lower, 01:11:23.060 --> 01:11:28.060 your mitochondria are able to work full speed 01:11:28.060 --> 01:11:33.700 to produce energy, which keeps calcium 01:11:33.700 --> 01:11:37.100 where it belongs in the bones, not in the blood vessels. 01:11:37.100 --> 01:11:39.980 So warning people not to eat calcium 01:11:39.980 --> 01:11:42.420 and restrict their vitamin D 01:11:42.420 --> 01:11:45.940 is exactly what's going to increase your blood calcium 01:11:45.940 --> 01:11:48.420 and your blood vessel calcification. 01:11:48.420 --> 01:11:51.820 - Whoa, so these dark greens are good, right? 01:11:51.820 --> 01:11:55.340 Collards and all kale cook these babies up, right? 01:11:55.340 --> 01:11:56.860 They're good for you. 01:11:56.860 --> 01:11:59.420 - Yeah, because they have the highest ratio 01:11:59.420 --> 01:12:02.380 of calcium and magnesium to phosphate. 01:12:02.380 --> 01:12:07.380 Phosphate, phosphorus in nuts, seeds, and meat and fish, 01:12:07.380 --> 01:12:11.260 the high phosphate to calcium ratio 01:12:11.260 --> 01:12:13.560 increases your parathyroid hormone, 01:12:14.820 --> 01:12:16.420 damages your bones, 01:12:16.420 --> 01:12:21.220 and puts the calcium into your blood vessels. 01:12:21.220 --> 01:12:23.620 - Oh, and nuts, seeds, and meat. 01:12:23.620 --> 01:12:25.100 - Yeah, it's the high calcium. 01:12:25.100 --> 01:12:26.420 - So are you making an argument 01:12:26.420 --> 01:12:30.020 for like just a vegetarian greens thing? 01:12:30.020 --> 01:12:33.860 - Well, it's best to let the cow eat the greens 01:12:33.860 --> 01:12:37.060 and then drink the milk and eat the cheese. 01:12:37.060 --> 01:12:43.020 Because the cow has the apparatus to detoxify the greens. 01:12:44.100 --> 01:12:48.380 The greens, the plant doesn't want its leaves to be eaten, 01:12:48.380 --> 01:12:53.380 so it puts irritants and digestion blockers into the leaves. 01:12:53.380 --> 01:12:59.340 The leaves and seeds have defensive toxic chemicals 01:12:59.340 --> 01:13:04.340 to prevent being eaten by insects and cows. 01:13:04.340 --> 01:13:09.700 And so the cow has the extra stomach 01:13:09.700 --> 01:13:14.700 which favors the growth of microorganisms 01:13:14.700 --> 01:13:20.260 which destroy those toxins and release the amino acids 01:13:20.260 --> 01:13:25.420 and other nutrients to form the milk. 01:13:25.420 --> 01:13:29.160 So a cow is a detox factory. 01:13:29.160 --> 01:13:34.100 - Have you ever had the Basque, 01:13:34.100 --> 01:13:36.860 I think it's sheep cheese, the Basque cheese, Bosphorus? 01:13:36.860 --> 01:13:37.700 - Oh yeah, I use it every day. 01:13:37.700 --> 01:13:39.180 - Wow, man. 01:13:39.180 --> 01:13:41.140 Is that the best ever cheese or what? 01:13:41.140 --> 01:13:43.300 - I like it. 01:13:43.300 --> 01:13:45.300 - Wonderful. 01:13:45.300 --> 01:13:47.140 - I like almost all cheeses, 01:13:47.140 --> 01:13:50.740 but every day I do eat the sheep cheese. 01:13:50.740 --> 01:13:52.500 - That's funny, that's great. 01:13:52.500 --> 01:13:54.860 Yeah, sheep cheese, good stuff. 01:13:54.860 --> 01:13:56.020 Okay, let's go to the phones. 01:13:56.020 --> 01:13:57.780 Good morning, you're on the air with Dr. Ray Peat. 01:13:57.780 --> 01:13:58.940 Who's this? 01:13:58.940 --> 01:13:59.820 - Hi, good morning. 01:13:59.820 --> 01:14:03.500 My name is Mo, I'm from Fort Worth, Texas. 01:14:03.500 --> 01:14:06.260 Dr. Peat, thank you for being here for us. 01:14:06.260 --> 01:14:09.100 I hadn't drunk orange juice in 20 years 01:14:09.100 --> 01:14:11.540 and after listening to your show, 01:14:11.540 --> 01:14:13.660 I started to drink the orange juice 01:14:13.660 --> 01:14:15.940 and for the first time in 25 years, 01:14:15.940 --> 01:14:19.140 my hands and feet for the last six months 01:14:19.140 --> 01:14:23.180 were nice and warm and now they are back to being cold. 01:14:23.180 --> 01:14:26.140 So I don't know what the deal is here. 01:14:26.140 --> 01:14:31.140 And also the first time my thyroid test came out 0.1 01:14:31.140 --> 01:14:35.780 and it was always two and three 01:14:35.780 --> 01:14:39.420 and the doctor kept saying it's normal, it's normal. 01:14:39.420 --> 01:14:41.700 So I'm wondering what's going on 01:14:41.700 --> 01:14:45.420 and also I want to know about your formulation 01:14:45.420 --> 01:14:47.740 for progesterone cream. 01:14:47.740 --> 01:14:52.740 Is it done by one company or the same formula? 01:14:52.740 --> 01:14:54.700 - Okay, let's do all those. 01:14:54.700 --> 01:14:57.620 So you're saying that at first when you did the orange juice 01:14:57.620 --> 01:15:01.220 then your hands got warmer and then they didn't 01:15:01.220 --> 01:15:02.380 and then you said the titer, 01:15:02.380 --> 01:15:05.180 you mean you're talking about your TSH? 01:15:05.180 --> 01:15:06.020 - Yeah. 01:15:06.020 --> 01:15:08.380 - Okay, your TSH went from where? 01:15:08.380 --> 01:15:11.140 - From two and three to 0.1. 01:15:11.140 --> 01:15:13.620 I was thrilled to be there. 01:15:13.620 --> 01:15:14.460 - Well, that's good, right? 01:15:14.460 --> 01:15:15.620 It goes down, Dr. Peat, right? 01:15:15.620 --> 01:15:17.980 Her TSH went down, right? 01:15:17.980 --> 01:15:21.580 - Yeah, normally when you look at healthy people, 01:15:21.580 --> 01:15:24.100 they have the lowest TSH 01:15:24.100 --> 01:15:27.260 but also stress hormones can lower it. 01:15:27.260 --> 01:15:31.340 So if something caused your cortisol and adrenaline 01:15:31.340 --> 01:15:33.020 to go sharply up, 01:15:33.020 --> 01:15:37.220 that also could account for lowering the TSH. 01:15:37.220 --> 01:15:42.220 So in that case, it's important to look at your temperature, 01:15:42.220 --> 01:15:47.140 heart rate and also if you have a blood test for T3, 01:15:47.140 --> 01:15:51.380 the T3 is the active hormone that produces the heat. 01:15:51.380 --> 01:15:57.620 - How could the orange juice help her thyroid 01:15:57.620 --> 01:15:59.860 must have started working better 01:15:59.860 --> 01:16:02.500 to get more circulation in her hands and feet? 01:16:02.500 --> 01:16:06.020 - It does contain, the reason I recommend it 01:16:06.020 --> 01:16:11.020 as a favorite carbohydrate is that it comes 01:16:11.020 --> 01:16:16.220 with many very powerful anti-inflammatory flavonoids, 01:16:16.220 --> 01:16:24.220 naringenin, nobiletin and a whole variety 01:16:24.220 --> 01:16:28.780 of very anti-inflammatory things 01:16:28.780 --> 01:16:32.580 that can help your thyroid work. 01:16:32.580 --> 01:16:37.060 But when your hands suddenly get cold, 01:16:37.060 --> 01:16:40.820 it's very important to look for what's happening. 01:16:40.820 --> 01:16:44.260 Sometimes it could be a calcium deficiency 01:16:44.260 --> 01:16:47.500 or a vitamin D deficiency interfering 01:16:47.500 --> 01:16:51.780 with energy production by increasing parathyroid hormone. 01:16:51.780 --> 01:16:56.380 Not getting enough salt in your diet is another thing. 01:16:56.380 --> 01:17:00.060 Salt and calcium work closely to hold down 01:17:00.060 --> 01:17:03.940 the aldosterone parathyroid system. 01:17:03.940 --> 01:17:07.180 - Wow, so it gets a little complicated. 01:17:07.180 --> 01:17:11.420 So you, my dear, you were interested in knowing 01:17:11.420 --> 01:17:14.380 something about a progesterone formula? 01:17:14.380 --> 01:17:16.420 - Yeah, Dr. Ray Peat has. 01:17:16.420 --> 01:17:21.820 Where could I get it and are they all same, 01:17:21.820 --> 01:17:23.220 whichever company? 01:17:23.220 --> 01:17:26.300 - Yeah, he'll tell you here, just listen, okay? 01:17:26.300 --> 01:17:30.260 - Yeah, the formula I designed in the 1970s, 01:17:30.260 --> 01:17:36.180 progesterone in vitamin E and natural coconut oil, 01:17:36.180 --> 01:17:44.260 that has been made ever since by a company called Kenogen. 01:17:44.260 --> 01:17:46.060 - Ketogen, keto? 01:17:46.060 --> 01:17:51.060 - Kenogen, yeah, the email is kenogen@gmail.com. 01:17:51.060 --> 01:17:55.660 - Is that K-E-N like Nancy? 01:17:55.660 --> 01:17:58.500 - Yeah, K-E-N-O-G-E-N. 01:17:58.500 --> 01:18:01.100 - And so that's just progesterone, vitamin E, 01:18:01.100 --> 01:18:05.220 and coconut oil, Kenogen, and you like that product 01:18:05.220 --> 01:18:07.140 'cause you developed the formula. 01:18:07.140 --> 01:18:08.220 - Yeah. 01:18:08.220 --> 01:18:11.260 - And so there you go, does that help you? 01:18:11.260 --> 01:18:14.260 - Is it just that one company that does that, 01:18:14.260 --> 01:18:16.380 Ketogen, whatever? 01:18:16.380 --> 01:18:18.620 - Yeah, that's the same company 01:18:18.620 --> 01:18:20.740 that I licensed it to long ago. 01:18:20.740 --> 01:18:22.020 - Oh. 01:18:22.020 --> 01:18:23.500 - Okay, thank you so much. 01:18:23.500 --> 01:18:24.340 - You're quite welcome. 01:18:24.340 --> 01:18:25.180 - I appreciate all your help. 01:18:25.180 --> 01:18:27.740 - Wow, very interesting, Kenogen. 01:18:27.740 --> 01:18:32.140 So you believe that that's a better choice 01:18:32.140 --> 01:18:35.540 than just doing the progesterone cream a la carte, 01:18:35.540 --> 01:18:38.060 you know, like from the wild yams or something? 01:18:38.060 --> 01:18:42.740 - Yeah, if you wanted to use it on your skin, 01:18:42.740 --> 01:18:47.740 it spreads more easily if you add some coconut or olive oil 01:18:47.740 --> 01:18:52.420 because it has so much vitamin E in it 01:18:52.420 --> 01:18:55.820 that it's very viscous and can be diluted 01:18:55.820 --> 01:19:00.180 with about an equal part of olive or coconut oil. 01:19:00.180 --> 01:19:01.540 - Oh, cool. 01:19:01.540 --> 01:19:04.220 Here's one for you, boy, this is a new one. 01:19:04.220 --> 01:19:06.180 I'm very interested, are there any movies 01:19:06.180 --> 01:19:09.140 that Dr. Peat found enjoyable or noteworthy 01:19:09.140 --> 01:19:11.300 as a positive experience for him? 01:19:11.300 --> 01:19:13.120 Also, any fiction books? 01:19:13.120 --> 01:19:19.820 - Oh, none, I would have to think about that. 01:19:21.540 --> 01:19:26.140 I have occasionally read fiction 01:19:26.140 --> 01:19:28.940 and now and then I see a good movie, 01:19:28.940 --> 01:19:32.180 but they aren't on the top of my head. 01:19:32.180 --> 01:19:34.180 - Nothing that comes to the top of your head. 01:19:34.180 --> 01:19:35.860 Doc, we ran a little late, 01:19:35.860 --> 01:19:37.860 can you stick around for a few more minutes? 01:19:37.860 --> 01:19:38.700 - Okay. 01:19:38.700 --> 01:19:39.700 - Okay, stay right there. 01:19:39.700 --> 01:19:41.300 Yeah, guys, we normally end at noon 01:19:41.300 --> 01:19:42.940 and just keep 'em 90 minutes, 01:19:42.940 --> 01:19:45.540 but we got a lot of emails and we got started late, 01:19:45.540 --> 01:19:49.220 so I'd like you to stay right there, please. 01:19:49.220 --> 01:19:51.420 Previously with the highly credentialed 01:19:51.420 --> 01:19:56.140 Dr. Thomas Levy, he argues because the literature shows 01:19:56.140 --> 01:19:59.420 that oxidation is the cause of disease. 01:19:59.420 --> 01:20:03.300 - But the whole point is the location, 01:20:03.300 --> 01:20:06.480 the concentration, the duration, 01:20:06.480 --> 01:20:09.500 the distribution of oxidized biomolecules 01:20:09.500 --> 01:20:14.220 determines 100% of all diseases. 01:20:14.220 --> 01:20:16.620 And so that's why I say oxidative stress 01:20:16.620 --> 01:20:19.900 doesn't cause disease, oxidation is disease. 01:20:19.900 --> 01:20:20.860 - Is disease. 01:20:20.860 --> 01:20:23.700 - If there's no oxidized biomolecules, 01:20:23.700 --> 01:20:24.820 you don't have a toxin. 01:20:24.820 --> 01:20:29.700 The toxic effect is oxidation of biomolecules. 01:20:29.700 --> 01:20:30.860 That's the entirety of it. 01:20:30.860 --> 01:20:33.060 - And by the grace of God, several months ago, 01:20:33.060 --> 01:20:35.900 George Wiseman said this about hydrogen. 01:20:35.900 --> 01:20:40.900 - Hydrogen is the world's best antioxidant by a long shot. 01:20:40.900 --> 01:20:44.280 First of all, it's 700 times smaller 01:20:44.280 --> 01:20:46.140 than something like CoQ10, 01:20:46.140 --> 01:20:49.340 400 times smaller than vitamin C, things like that. 01:20:49.340 --> 01:20:52.500 So it can literally go, the hydrogen molecule 01:20:52.500 --> 01:20:54.780 can literally go through everything in your body 01:20:54.780 --> 01:20:57.260 and go right into the very DNA and repair it. 01:20:57.260 --> 01:21:01.380 - So now it makes sense why George was able to say this 01:21:01.380 --> 01:21:05.180 back in August, 2019, with such conviction. 01:21:05.180 --> 01:21:08.640 - The body accepts that gas 01:21:08.640 --> 01:21:12.020 and uses it to heal everything. 01:21:12.020 --> 01:21:13.940 It's like the fountain of youth. 01:21:13.940 --> 01:21:17.020 It's astonishing the amount of ailments. 01:21:17.020 --> 01:21:18.540 In fact, in scientific studies, 01:21:18.540 --> 01:21:21.180 and they have over a thousand scientific studies now, 01:21:21.180 --> 01:21:24.340 they are showing that it either helps the body heal directly 01:21:24.340 --> 01:21:26.760 or indirectly from virtually every ailment 01:21:26.760 --> 01:21:29.180 that ails any water-based life form. 01:21:29.180 --> 01:21:30.460 -

Gilbert Ling's work, he died last fall, 01:25:21.500 --> 01:25:24.880 about a month short of 100 years. 01:25:24.880 --> 01:25:30.820 He was one of my early influences in biology, 01:25:30.820 --> 01:25:35.700 my first couple of weeks in graduate school. 01:25:35.900 --> 01:25:39.940 I realized my professor was talking hot air 01:25:39.940 --> 01:25:43.620 and started reading the background 01:25:43.620 --> 01:25:48.620 and found that every time he cited a source for his beliefs, 01:25:48.620 --> 01:25:52.380 if I read in the same journals, 01:25:52.380 --> 01:25:55.500 I found better contradictory work 01:25:55.500 --> 01:25:58.700 that had been published by Gilbert Ling, 01:25:58.700 --> 01:26:03.700 and so I contacted him and had been following his work 01:26:04.220 --> 01:26:06.300 steadily since 1968. 01:26:06.300 --> 01:26:12.940 So this newsletter is explaining the meaning of his work 01:26:12.940 --> 01:26:18.780 and how a sort of insanity took over biological, 01:26:18.780 --> 01:26:28.020 especially nerve function, electronic functions of cells. 01:26:31.660 --> 01:26:36.660 He gave an actual clear, consistent explanation 01:26:36.660 --> 01:26:40.580 where all of the standard things 01:26:40.580 --> 01:26:43.620 that people are still pretty much talking about 01:26:43.620 --> 01:26:47.320 are essentially impossible fantasies. 01:26:47.320 --> 01:26:49.940 - Very interesting. 01:26:49.940 --> 01:26:52.300 Here's an email from Joyce. 01:26:52.300 --> 01:26:57.300 I heard an old show with a guest that Patrick had on, 01:26:57.480 --> 01:27:02.480 Jonathan Wright, that suggested estriol, E-S-T-O-R-I-O-L, 01:27:02.480 --> 01:27:07.860 could actually be used topically on the face for wrinkles. 01:27:07.860 --> 01:27:11.520 Does Dr. Peat think that's possible? 01:27:11.520 --> 01:27:15.360 - It makes the skin take up water, 01:27:15.360 --> 01:27:19.440 and so it will plump up the skin, 01:27:19.440 --> 01:27:23.520 but meanwhile, it's altering the collagen. 01:27:23.520 --> 01:27:28.120 Estriol is the weakest estrogen, 01:27:28.120 --> 01:27:31.160 10 times weaker than estradiol, 01:27:31.160 --> 01:27:36.160 but people need to use 10 times more to get the effect, 01:27:36.160 --> 01:27:41.160 and the effect is exactly the same as estradiol, 01:27:41.160 --> 01:27:44.600 the powerful, dangerous estrogen. 01:27:44.600 --> 01:27:49.120 They like to use it. 01:27:49.120 --> 01:27:52.840 I don't know if it's still practiced, 01:27:52.840 --> 01:27:57.120 but for many years, they used it on cattle 01:27:57.120 --> 01:27:59.320 because it made them take up water. 01:27:59.320 --> 01:28:01.320 - Wow. 01:28:01.320 --> 01:28:05.240 - When they started doing that, a steak, 01:28:05.240 --> 01:28:10.240 when you put it on a frying pan, it tends to exude water, 01:28:10.240 --> 01:28:14.080 and so it boils instead of frying, 01:28:14.080 --> 01:28:16.760 but estrogen does that to your skin, too. 01:28:16.760 --> 01:28:18.720 It makes it swell up with water, 01:28:18.720 --> 01:28:21.040 and so it looks smooth and shiny. 01:28:21.040 --> 01:28:22.480 - Is that good? 01:28:22.480 --> 01:28:23.320 - No. 01:28:23.320 --> 01:28:25.000 - Oh, it's not good. 01:28:25.000 --> 01:28:27.080 So you don't want to put estriol on your skin. 01:28:27.080 --> 01:28:28.960 It's just not a good idea. 01:28:28.960 --> 01:28:29.800 - Yeah. 01:28:29.800 --> 01:28:30.640 - Okay. 01:28:30.640 --> 01:28:31.680 - It's pro-aging. 01:28:31.680 --> 01:28:35.640 My dissertation was on the age-accelerating effects 01:28:35.640 --> 01:28:36.920 of estrogen. 01:28:36.920 --> 01:28:38.600 - Oh, you don't want to do that. 01:28:38.600 --> 01:28:42.200 And estrogen is what we get from, what, soybeans 01:28:42.200 --> 01:28:43.840 and things like that, correct? 01:28:43.840 --> 01:28:44.680 - Yeah. 01:28:44.680 --> 01:28:46.240 - So we don't like those guys. 01:28:46.240 --> 01:28:48.480 I'd like to know what soap Dr. Peat uses. 01:28:48.480 --> 01:28:51.000 Many of the natural soaps are full of Pufus. 01:28:51.960 --> 01:28:54.880 - No, I use pure coconut soap. 01:28:54.880 --> 01:28:57.560 - Coconut soap, yeah, yeah. 01:28:57.560 --> 01:28:58.880 I have two questions. 01:28:58.880 --> 01:29:00.840 This one is from Mary. 01:29:00.840 --> 01:29:04.760 Can Dr. Peat talk about physiologic role 01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:09.760 of norepinephrine and noradrenaline? 01:29:09.760 --> 01:29:11.040 Wow. 01:29:11.040 --> 01:29:19.360 - The adrenaline system has been maligned 01:29:21.680 --> 01:29:26.680 it's the fight or flight immediate response 01:29:26.680 --> 01:29:32.120 stress hormone, but it does activate 01:29:32.120 --> 01:29:36.920 other stress hormones, cortisol and so on. 01:29:36.920 --> 01:29:41.920 So it can, if it persists, it can be harmful. 01:29:41.920 --> 01:29:46.920 But the history of it maligning that has led people 01:29:48.440 --> 01:29:53.440 to overemphasize the opposite parasympathetic 01:29:53.440 --> 01:29:59.200 part of the nervous system, which with severe stress 01:29:59.200 --> 01:30:05.080 and aging, the parasympathetic overtakes the other side 01:30:05.080 --> 01:30:09.940 and creates the degenerative processes. 01:30:09.940 --> 01:30:16.080 So things that momentarily increase the epinephrine 01:30:17.880 --> 01:30:22.880 or adrenaline side can be very, very helpful 01:30:22.880 --> 01:30:28.520 if they are stopped soon enough. 01:30:28.520 --> 01:30:33.520 And sugar and salt happen to be two of the nutrients 01:30:33.520 --> 01:30:40.280 that will limit uncontrolled production 01:30:40.280 --> 01:30:42.680 of the adrenaline system. 01:30:42.680 --> 01:30:46.800 Thyroid, I've seen hypothyroid people 01:30:46.800 --> 01:30:51.800 who had just hour after hour, 01:30:51.800 --> 01:30:57.800 their blood would be saturated with as much as 40 times 01:30:57.800 --> 01:31:02.040 the normal level of adrenaline compensating 01:31:02.040 --> 01:31:04.140 for the low thyroid function. 01:31:04.140 --> 01:31:08.720 And so when you first take thyroid, 01:31:08.720 --> 01:31:12.440 if you have been overproducing adrenaline, 01:31:12.440 --> 01:31:17.440 you will experience a stress, speedy adrenaline reaction. 01:31:17.440 --> 01:31:21.160 People think that's the thyroid action, 01:31:21.160 --> 01:31:25.300 but actually the thyroid has a relaxing function. 01:31:25.300 --> 01:31:27.600 You have to adapt to it gradually 01:31:27.600 --> 01:31:32.600 by getting your adrenaline under control. 01:31:32.600 --> 01:31:38.720 And having a sugary and salty foods 01:31:38.720 --> 01:31:41.560 while you're adjusting to your thyroid 01:31:41.560 --> 01:31:44.560 will let you keep the adrenaline under control. 01:31:44.560 --> 01:31:49.400 And then when your thyroid function is good, 01:31:49.400 --> 01:31:51.360 adrenaline is all good. 01:31:51.360 --> 01:31:54.360 It speeds your thinking 01:31:54.360 --> 01:31:59.360 and does everything helpful for adaptation. 01:31:59.360 --> 01:32:03.240 It's just the overproduction of it, 01:32:03.240 --> 01:32:07.720 usually from hypothyroidism, that becomes a stress problem. 01:32:07.720 --> 01:32:08.560 - Very good. 01:32:08.560 --> 01:32:12.160 Thomas says mid-40s always had leg cramps 01:32:12.160 --> 01:32:13.260 for many, many years. 01:32:13.260 --> 01:32:16.040 And he said he would notice that sweet or salty 01:32:16.040 --> 01:32:18.160 in the evening would exacerbate it. 01:32:18.160 --> 01:32:20.820 And then he figured out that having lots of water 01:32:20.820 --> 01:32:24.280 before he went to bed would really calm it all down. 01:32:24.280 --> 01:32:27.540 And he wanted to know what could be going on 01:32:27.540 --> 01:32:30.480 and why do people get cramps mainly at night 01:32:30.480 --> 01:32:32.540 when they are lying horizontally? 01:32:34.640 --> 01:32:39.640 - The parasympathetic system turns on when you lie down. 01:32:39.640 --> 01:32:41.480 - Right. 01:32:41.480 --> 01:32:43.240 - Your adrenaline goes down. 01:32:43.240 --> 01:32:47.360 And that's the sort of thing I was just talking about. 01:32:47.360 --> 01:32:51.920 Parasympathetic goes up at night. 01:32:51.920 --> 01:32:55.320 And with age in particular, 01:32:55.320 --> 01:32:58.280 the parasympathetic starts overpowering 01:32:58.280 --> 01:33:00.360 the adrenaline system. 01:33:00.360 --> 01:33:02.520 And during the night, 01:33:02.520 --> 01:33:05.580 that causes your blood sugar to go down. 01:33:05.580 --> 01:33:12.000 And the falling blood sugar turns on other stress hormones. 01:33:12.000 --> 01:33:20.360 And you go into various, 01:33:20.360 --> 01:33:25.200 asthma can occur primarily at night. 01:33:25.200 --> 01:33:29.720 And even epileptic seizures can be triggered 01:33:29.720 --> 01:33:32.920 by that parasympathetic dominance 01:33:32.920 --> 01:33:35.780 lowering your blood sugar. 01:33:35.780 --> 01:33:40.240 - But parasympathetic is better at night. 01:33:40.240 --> 01:33:42.720 It's more to relax in the sleep, right? 01:33:42.720 --> 01:33:47.720 - Yeah, normally that happens with young people. 01:33:47.720 --> 01:33:53.240 But with old age, it exacerbates the problems of aging. 01:33:59.240 --> 01:34:02.760 I think thyroid hormone deficiency 01:34:02.760 --> 01:34:07.760 is part of that age-related sleep problem. 01:34:07.760 --> 01:34:09.960 - Interesting. 01:34:09.960 --> 01:34:10.880 Here's an email for you. 01:34:10.880 --> 01:34:13.320 Can pneumonia be treated at home, 01:34:13.320 --> 01:34:16.240 for example, with food or coffee or niacinamide, 01:34:16.240 --> 01:34:18.800 red light or watching funny movies? 01:34:18.800 --> 01:34:19.840 That's funny. 01:34:19.840 --> 01:34:21.800 What do you think about that? 01:34:21.800 --> 01:34:26.160 - Pneumonia, it's usually produced, 01:34:26.160 --> 01:34:31.160 most often produced by inflammatory signals 01:34:31.160 --> 01:34:37.020 that they can come from your intestine or from germs, 01:34:37.020 --> 01:34:39.820 but anti-inflammatory things, 01:34:39.820 --> 01:34:46.320 chicken soup, a source of salt and gelatin, for example, 01:34:46.320 --> 01:34:52.680 orange juice, milk and ice cream, 01:34:52.680 --> 01:34:56.260 all of these can help reduce inflammation. 01:34:56.260 --> 01:35:02.480 Aspirin, Losartan, the thing I mentioned 01:35:02.480 --> 01:35:07.280 for angiotensin opposition, 01:35:07.280 --> 01:35:13.840 that has been used for treating pneumonia, 01:35:13.840 --> 01:35:15.800 among other things. 01:35:15.800 --> 01:35:16.640 - Interesting. 01:35:16.640 --> 01:35:21.640 Which potato has the most ketones, red, yukon or russet? 01:35:22.160 --> 01:35:27.160 - The red potatoes are usually higher in water content. 01:35:27.160 --> 01:35:35.760 The russet, I think, has the best nutrition. 01:35:35.760 --> 01:35:40.960 Technically, you could find the nutrients in the yukon, 01:35:40.960 --> 01:35:43.440 but I think they're the ones 01:35:43.440 --> 01:35:47.080 with the yellow carotene content. 01:35:47.080 --> 01:35:49.080 They are harder to digest 01:35:49.080 --> 01:35:52.440 because the carotene interferes 01:35:52.440 --> 01:35:55.680 with the breakdown of the starch. 01:35:55.680 --> 01:35:57.720 - Linda wants to know if you can talk 01:35:57.720 --> 01:36:02.320 about the Scandinavians, how they cook fish in lye, 01:36:02.320 --> 01:36:05.100 like lute fish, is there health benefits? 01:36:05.100 --> 01:36:07.360 - I don't think there's any. 01:36:07.360 --> 01:36:11.640 I think it was just a preservative thing, 01:36:11.640 --> 01:36:14.520 keeping fish in storage. 01:36:14.520 --> 01:36:17.340 - Amy wants to know, will charcoal help with virus? 01:36:18.340 --> 01:36:23.340 - If you have a bad intestinal situation, 01:36:23.340 --> 01:36:28.980 charcoal, I think the best approach 01:36:28.980 --> 01:36:31.620 is to have a daily carrot. 01:36:31.620 --> 01:36:35.740 Carrot salad, for example, will clean your intestine 01:36:35.740 --> 01:36:38.860 and remove antithyroid factors. 01:36:38.860 --> 01:36:40.460 - Oh, that's the one where you put, 01:36:40.460 --> 01:36:43.420 what do you do, Doc, you put a little bit of vinegar 01:36:43.420 --> 01:36:45.020 and coconut oil in there? 01:36:45.020 --> 01:36:45.860 No carrots? 01:36:45.860 --> 01:36:46.780 - And salt. 01:36:46.780 --> 01:36:47.700 - Salt? 01:36:47.700 --> 01:36:48.980 - Yeah. 01:36:48.980 --> 01:36:51.380 - Of course, salt, gotta have salt. 01:36:51.380 --> 01:36:55.300 What does Dr. Peat think about mixing magnesium carbonate 01:36:55.300 --> 01:36:58.500 with vinegar and calcium gluconate 01:36:58.500 --> 01:37:02.700 to improve the absorption of the calcium and magnesium? 01:37:02.700 --> 01:37:09.460 Mixing magnesium carbonate with vinegar 01:37:09.460 --> 01:37:11.140 and calcium gluconate. 01:37:12.180 --> 01:37:15.340 - Magnesium carbonate, first of all, 01:37:15.340 --> 01:37:20.340 a lot of people are sensitive to some impurity 01:37:20.340 --> 01:37:24.020 in most of the products that I've seen. 01:37:24.020 --> 01:37:29.020 I used to use it regularly as a magnesium supplement, 01:37:29.020 --> 01:37:33.020 but I've had very bad headaches from it, 01:37:33.020 --> 01:37:35.540 and lots of people experience that. 01:37:35.540 --> 01:37:39.980 So you have to be cautious with any of those pure chemicals. 01:37:41.420 --> 01:37:42.620 Nancy wants to know, is there any way 01:37:42.620 --> 01:37:45.340 to make the valves in my legs work again? 01:37:45.340 --> 01:37:48.940 I've been diagnosed with venous reflux disease 01:37:48.940 --> 01:37:52.380 and so fearful of having the procedure done, 01:37:52.380 --> 01:37:53.980 I'm doing support stockings. 01:37:53.980 --> 01:37:55.180 Anything I can do? 01:37:55.180 --> 01:37:59.620 - The stockings are definitely helpful, 01:37:59.620 --> 01:38:04.620 but the cause of it is usually a hormone imbalance, 01:38:07.260 --> 01:38:11.020 high estrogen in relation to DHEA, 01:38:11.020 --> 01:38:14.180 pregnenolone, progesterone, and testosterone. 01:38:14.180 --> 01:38:20.300 The bad ratio of estrogen weakens the wall of the veins 01:38:20.300 --> 01:38:26.300 and lets them balloon and tend to form clots. 01:38:26.300 --> 01:38:30.940 So checking your hormones, 01:38:30.940 --> 01:38:33.660 making sure that your thyroid is good, 01:38:33.660 --> 01:38:37.780 that's usually deficient, 01:38:37.780 --> 01:38:40.180 causing the high estrogen 01:38:40.180 --> 01:38:44.420 to the progesterone and androgen ratio. 01:38:44.420 --> 01:38:49.280 - Couple more here, then we'll let you go to work. 01:38:49.280 --> 01:38:51.500 Okay. 01:38:51.500 --> 01:38:55.940 Does Ray, (laughs) 01:38:55.940 --> 01:38:57.660 boy, you guys are getting clever this morning. 01:38:57.660 --> 01:39:00.620 Does Ray Peat, this is from Matthias, 01:39:00.620 --> 01:39:02.480 does Ray Peat believe in God? 01:39:03.480 --> 01:39:08.040 - It depends on how you define it. 01:39:08.040 --> 01:39:13.040 I'm sort of a fan of the process theology. 01:39:13.040 --> 01:39:16.880 If you Google that, 01:39:16.880 --> 01:39:21.680 you can find one of the most famous 01:39:21.680 --> 01:39:24.240 current process theologists. 01:39:24.240 --> 01:39:29.680 They're basing their thinking on Alfred North Whitehead, 01:39:29.680 --> 01:39:33.800 who was one of my philosophical influences. 01:39:33.800 --> 01:39:38.680 Whitehead made himself unpopular among philosophers 01:39:38.680 --> 01:39:40.340 by using the word God. 01:39:40.340 --> 01:39:46.200 But if you read the process theology 01:39:46.200 --> 01:39:52.720 based on Whitehead, you'll get an idea of my approach. 01:39:52.720 --> 01:39:54.160 - Dr. Peat, I love your shows. 01:39:54.160 --> 01:39:57.600 This is from Paula in Scottsdale, Arizona. 01:39:57.600 --> 01:40:00.440 My dentist used a cone beam x-ray 01:40:00.440 --> 01:40:03.080 and told me I have a cavitation in my jaw 01:40:03.080 --> 01:40:05.640 from a tooth that was extracted 40 years ago. 01:40:05.640 --> 01:40:07.900 He said about 95% of all extractions 01:40:07.900 --> 01:40:09.920 end up with some cavitations. 01:40:09.920 --> 01:40:12.920 I've never had any pain or tenderness there in my mouth, 01:40:12.920 --> 01:40:14.880 but he wants to do surgery 01:40:14.880 --> 01:40:18.040 and scrape and clean out it properly. 01:40:18.040 --> 01:40:19.880 It'd be pretty expensive. 01:40:19.880 --> 01:40:23.840 Expensive, I'm wondering if this is really needed. 01:40:23.840 --> 01:40:25.600 - No, I don't think it is. 01:40:25.600 --> 01:40:30.600 If there's no pain, there's almost certainly no infection. 01:40:30.600 --> 01:40:34.200 When you pull a tooth, 01:40:34.200 --> 01:40:37.240 sometimes the bone doesn't fill in the hole. 01:40:37.240 --> 01:40:38.800 No problem there. 01:40:38.800 --> 01:40:40.400 - You don't believe there's a problem there? 01:40:40.400 --> 01:40:41.240 - No. 01:40:41.240 --> 01:40:42.080 - Okay. 01:40:42.080 --> 01:40:44.640 Cavitations. 01:40:44.640 --> 01:40:50.480 What is Dr. Peat's opinion on eating organic Adami soy? 01:40:50.480 --> 01:40:52.800 Is the estrogen too much? 01:40:52.800 --> 01:40:56.680 Or if eaten in moderation, would it be okay, Adami soy? 01:40:56.680 --> 01:41:02.960 - I think it's okay as a condiment in very limited amounts. 01:41:02.960 --> 01:41:10.720 For example, soy sauce, I think it's safe 01:41:10.720 --> 01:41:13.440 to use occasionally in a small amount. 01:41:13.440 --> 01:41:17.400 But the more, for example, in Hawaii, 01:41:17.400 --> 01:41:21.760 there was a study of people who ate tofu 01:41:21.760 --> 01:41:23.140 and those who didn't, 01:41:23.140 --> 01:41:27.320 and dementia was higher in the tofu eaters. 01:41:27.320 --> 01:41:29.760 - Dementia was higher in the tofu eaters? 01:41:29.760 --> 01:41:30.960 - Yeah. 01:41:30.960 --> 01:41:32.640 - What's that about, I wonder? 01:41:32.640 --> 01:41:34.200 Is it just the estrogen? 01:41:34.200 --> 01:41:35.400 - Yeah. 01:41:35.400 --> 01:41:38.520 I think a poor diet in general 01:41:38.520 --> 01:41:43.520 because tofu isn't a very complete nutrient. 01:41:43.520 --> 01:41:47.640 Another study in China found that milk drinkers 01:41:47.640 --> 01:41:51.560 had much lower incidence of dementia. 01:41:51.560 --> 01:41:54.720 High quality protein and anti-inflammatory 01:41:54.720 --> 01:41:57.360 properties of the milk. 01:41:57.360 --> 01:41:58.200 - What about tempeh? 01:41:58.200 --> 01:42:00.520 You get organic tempeh. 01:42:00.520 --> 01:42:03.400 Reasonable food or staple? 01:42:03.400 --> 01:42:06.120 - In moderation, just for a pleasure food, 01:42:06.120 --> 01:42:08.440 but not a staple. 01:42:08.440 --> 01:42:10.440 -
