WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:11.000 Broadcasting from the beautiful Hill Country in Texas, this is OneRadioNetwork.com 00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:19.000 Alrighty, very pleasant good morning to you. It's almost afternoon here, OneRadioNetwork.com 00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:26.000 And this would be a Monday, the 16th of August. Patrick Timpone is my name, and the fellow 00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:33.000 to your immediate left, the picture there is Dr. Ray Peat. He's here on the third Monday 00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:41.000 of every month, around 11.30, but we're just a little bit late because of, oh, some technical 00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:47.000 silly stuff that's been going on. But Ray Peat's a good one. He's very popular around here. 00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:57.000 He's a PhD in biology, way back when, University of Oregon. And he specialized in physiology 00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:05.500 and the schools he taught at included the University of Oregon, Urbana College, Montana 00:01:05.500 --> 00:01:16.000 State University, National College of Naturopathic Medicine, Universidad de Veracruzanza in Mexico. 00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:23.000 And he started his work with progesterone and related hormones in 1968, about the time 00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:32.000 I started in radio, in '68. So he goes way back into physiological chemistry and physics 00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:39.000 and dissertation, University of Oregon in '72, his ideas regarding progesterone and 00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:44.000 hormones closely related to it. So he probably knows as much about progesterone and hormones 00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:51.000 as anybody on planet Earth these days, and it's an honor to have him here. Dr. Ray Peat, 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:56.000 thanks for your patience in coming on this morning. We had a little thing. How are you, 00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:57.000 sir? 00:01:57.000 --> 00:01:59.000 Oh, very good. 00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:02.000 You behaving yourself? Everything good there? 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:10.000 Yeah, we had two or three days of smoke from the fires to the east and south, but it's 00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:13.000 cleared up now, so it's very, very nice. 00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:15.000 So you're up there in Oregon, right? In Oregon? 00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:16.000 Yeah. 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:25.000 Dr. Peat, I've been thinking about this idea of variants and mutants and stuff. So let 00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:31.000 me just tell folks, if you'd like to ask a question, Patrick@OneRadioNetwork.com. So 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:39.000 Dr. Ray Peat, if in fact there is a virus running around, forget the germ theory thing, 00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:44.000 but just say there is some kind of a physical virus that people are exchanging with one 00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:54.000 another. Let's take that as a premise. Do these, if they exist as they claim, Dr. Peat, 00:02:54.000 --> 00:03:04.000 do viruses mutate and have variants and get stronger or weaker? What's your understanding 00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:06.000 of how this works? 00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:14.000 Yeah, for about 80 years, they were trying to make vaccines against the common cold, 00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:22.000 most of which were coronaviruses. And the problem was as soon as they would get a vaccine 00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:30.000 that would make you immune to the cold you had last season, the virus would change enough 00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:39.000 that the vaccine didn't work. And so for all of these years, they were having failures 00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:50.000 making vaccines that worked against coronaviruses. And someone came up with the idea that if 00:03:50.000 --> 00:04:03.000 you made the crucially toxic part of a coronavirus and had your own body make that, that would 00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:13.000 supposedly make you stay immune to some part of any virus of that family, no matter how 00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:22.000 the rest of it changed. But that just isn't the way the immune system works. We do make 00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:33.000 antibodies against everything, all the different parts, even the little piece of RNA they picked 00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:46.000 out. Our bodies make a variety of antibodies. Supposedly, if it's pure, they would make 00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:56.000 a certain range of antibodies. But that's only an extremely trivial, superficial part 00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:05.000 of the immune system. The reason medical immunology got stuck on the idea that antibodies are 00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:20.000 immunity is that the drug industry, Paul Ehrlich and his first mercury and then arsenic treatments 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:33.000 of syphilis were at the basis of, he called it the magic bullet. His theory of why his 00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:44.000 patent medicine would kill a disease such as syphilis was that it was specific, absolutely 00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:52.000 specific, a magic bullet that was only going to kill that organism and not hurt the rest 00:05:52.000 --> 00:06:02.000 of your body. But of course, arsenic and mercury hurt everything, nothing specific or focused 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:13.000 about it, but it was his advertising campaign. The magic bullet is not only his patent medicine, 00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:20.000 but he sold the idea that our immune systems work that way, that our antibodies are like 00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:30.000 magic bullets that only attack one particular thing, the invading organism. But he shared 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:40.000 the Nobel Prize with an actual biologist who studied the ground level of the immune system, 00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:47.000 and he said, "You know, I've been studying the phagocytes, which really think of the 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:56.000 invading material as potential food, but their real job is to maintain the continuity and 00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:05.000 health of the organism, and they scrape up the invaders as part of their job of keeping 00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:13.000 the organism healthy." But anyway, the money was behind Paul Ehrlich's magic bullet idea, 00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:23.000 and that took off in medicine. We had magic bullet antibodies, which were the immune system, 00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:33.000 and propagating it through medical schools supported by drug industry money wasn't enough. 00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:43.000 He drove the concept by a series of Nobel Prizes to any sort of junk science that supported 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:54.000 the idea of specific antibodies as the essence of our immune system. So that stupid idea 00:07:54.000 --> 00:08:06.000 to sell mercury and arsenic drugs, Paul Ehrlich's, got taken up all the way up to the Nobel Prize 00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:07.000 committee. 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:15.000 So oftentimes they give a Nobel Prize to run out a particular meme that they want. 00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:19.000 Always, I would say, with rare exceptions. 00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:25.000 Well, didn't Cary Mullis get a Nobel Prize for the PCR test? 00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:33.000 Yeah, that was so valuable to the industry. They thought he was a harmless crank. 00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:42.000 So let me go back on the cold idea. So is it possible, though, that as many are now 00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:49.000 out there talking about the Lanka, the Cowans, and many people, that colds and flus are simply 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:58.000 a detoxification process and that we're not catching some kind of a virus floating 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:02.000 through the air? I mean, do you think that's possible? 00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:11.000 No. There's this other idea of detoxification. That's another medical industry trick 00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:20.000 that goes back hundreds of years. The doctor would give you a poisonous toxin, a poisonous 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:30.000 remedy, and you would get sick when you took your mercury diuretic, for example. And the 00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:38.000 medical story was you got sick. That's your body healing itself, throwing out the evil 00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:44.000 substance that's making you sick. So you get sicker before you get better. 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:47.000 Which is the detox model, right? 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:59.000 Yeah, and it really hit its peak with the Herxheimer reaction, where in treating syphilis 00:09:59.000 --> 00:10:09.000 they would almost kill you with mercury fumes. You would just fall apart. And they would 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:17.000 say, "That's the healing reaction. You're detoxifying." But it was 100 percent the poison 00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:25.000 that they were giving you. And they said, "It's the germs dying and throwing off their 00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:38.000 toxins." Or, "It's your body destroying the tumor, for example, and you're suffering the 00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:45.000 detoxifying effect of getting that poisonous tumor or germs out of your body." But basically 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:54.000 that Herxheimer reaction is just an old medical trick to say, "We'll get you well, but you 00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:57.000 have to get sick first." 00:10:57.000 --> 00:11:06.000 So then you are of the mind that there is somewhere a unique communicable, potentially 00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:14.000 -- well, the numbers aren't there for like .04 percent -- but you think that there is 00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:19.000 some kind of virus called corona that is floating around that people are getting sick from? 00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:31.000 Oh, yeah. They were working on that 80 years ago, but they didn't have electron micrograph 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:40.000 images of it to show that it had the corona attachments all around it, of the attachment 00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:50.000 proteins. But it was an androgenically recognizable family of viruses. 00:11:50.000 --> 00:12:03.000 The detoxifying idea has been put to the test in various ways. When cows are rounded up 00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:12.000 to be slaughtered, they check the toxins, pesticides and things, in their urine and 00:12:12.000 --> 00:12:24.000 their bloodstream. Some of these studies found that essentially 100 percent of them had circulating 00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:35.000 toxins in their blood or urine. If they would stop poisoning them for just a day or two 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:45.000 when they were slaughtered, they found that the liver had none of the toxins, and that 00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:54.000 the toxins were residing in the fat tissue mostly, somewhat in the muscle tissue. But 00:12:54.000 --> 00:13:04.000 the liver, as the organ of detoxification, was essentially 100 percent clean in these 00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:15.000 well-poisoned animals. If you just reduced the inflow of poison, the liver was passively 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:20.000 working on expelling it from the body, putting it out in the urine. 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.000 And what were they poisoning them with? 00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:37.000 The herbicides and insecticides, things that are used in producing their food and keeping 00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:38.000 insects off their skin and so on. 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:44.000 Well, isn't it possible, though, that then we could be poisoning ourselves with different 00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:51.000 things, chemicals and bad food and bad thinking, to create the flu and the cold? 00:13:51.000 --> 00:14:04.000 Oh, those things all contribute. The environment is full of toxic junk, varying as industry 00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:17.000 finds new poisons to sell. So those are factors in everything. But the type of cold or flu 00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:32.000 going around has statistical properties. A certain type will predominate in a large part 00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:39.000 of the people in a certain flu season. The next flu season, it will be slightly different. 00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:46.000 So is it possible, though, that these things that are circling around are in fact exosomes 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.000 that are created in the body that people are sharing? 00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.000 Oh, sure, sure. That's where woodpeckers come from. 00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:56.000 Well, see, that's what I'm thinking. I mean, where else would they come from? They 00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:58.000 have to come from us, right? 00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:07.000 Yes, or other higher organisms. A virus doesn't just make itself. It's structured. 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:11.000 So what would be another higher organism? 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:23.000 Oh, well, the standard theory is bats and pigs and monkeys and all sorts of animals 00:15:23.000 --> 00:15:33.000 that are under stress are going to be putting out more of their exosomes or viruses. But 00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:44.000 it depends on how those stressed animals interact. A stressed pig farm, for example, is a powerful 00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:48.000 source of exosomes or so-called pig viruses. 00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:52.000 So exosomes and viruses are the same thing, essentially? 00:15:52.000 --> 00:16:01.000 Well, no one has suggested a better explanation for where they come from. 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:11.000 Yeah, how can a virus originate without the elaborate organisms that have the machinery 00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:18.000 for constructing these little encapsulated bits of nucleic acid? 00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:23.000 So we're sharing these exosomes and then people that are stressed out or poisoned or 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:30.000 in fear or whatever, they can have a reaction to the exosomes that we're sharing. 00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:39.000 Yeah. So a person who falls down the stairs, for example, is going to have damaged tissues 00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:53.000 and will put out an alarm to make exosomes for all kinds of things. So some of the cold 00:16:53.000 --> 00:17:01.000 or influenza-like exosomes might have been sitting around harmlessly that they picked 00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:11.000 up, maybe even in a previous season. But with the trauma that loosens things up, then among 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:19.000 many different, hundreds of different exosome types that the trauma brings on, then they 00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:25.000 might bring up influenza or herpes or... 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:34.000 Whatever, right. So then the whole vaccine idea has kind of just done some work. I mean, 00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:42.000 how would they protect Ray Peat from Patrick's exosomes if you and I had lunch or something? 00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:52.000 Make sure you eat a good lunch, well-nourished, have a glass of milk and a little coffee and 00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:55.000 orange juice. 00:17:55.000 --> 00:18:04.000 God, so there's so... Man, it's just so fascinating what's going on here. So the idea that there 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:13.000 is a COVID-19 thing and now it's changing and it's something else called a delta, that 00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:18.000 just doesn't fly, does it? I mean, it doesn't work, does it? 00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:32.000 Well, there are thousands of variations. You can start giving them names. I think, how 00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:40.000 can you even test for something that's changing so fast? If they have five major variants 00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:48.000 now with their different names, who's testing to see if one of those is making you sick 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:49.000 or not? 00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:56.000 Yeah, and then to create a vaccine for that would be just... I mean, it's just incomprehensible, 00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:57.000 isn't it? 00:18:57.000 --> 00:19:07.000 Yeah, but even once you accept the idea that a vaccine can prevent one particular kind 00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:15.000 of influenza, for example, there were several studies a couple of years ago looking at people 00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:25.000 who were vaccinated for influenza the previous season and this season when they got a respiratory 00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:35.000 infection, they checked for what type of pathogen was present and they found there were fewer 00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:46.000 people with the influenza pathogen, but many more with the coronavirus causing their respiratory 00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:54.000 disease. So it's been known, well documented a couple of years ago, but it's been known 00:19:54.000 --> 00:20:05.000 for decades that every time you activate your immune system, you are narrowing its range. 00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:16.000 Just on the level of antibodies, people don't realize that when you say you introduce a 00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:26.000 piece of ground up slurry of pork roast and produce antibodies to pork roast, those antibodies 00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:36.000 circulate in your body and the same thing that recognized the pork roast recognizes 00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:44.000 your new antibodies to pork roast and will produce antibodies to those, and those are 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:50.000 something that wasn't there before. You'll produce antibodies to those. So every time 00:20:50.000 --> 00:21:03.000 you produce antibodies, you don't just stop with those antigen antibodies, but you create 00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:12.000 waves of reactions forming antibodies to the antibodies and antibodies to those. Just the 00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:26.000 antibody people have a grossly fantasy-based idea of what they're doing. You're disrupting 00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:36.000 the system far down the line in somewhat unpredictable ways, but you're occupying that part of your 00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:46.000 immunity and draining energy and potential, developmental potential of your whole organism 00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:53.000 is being drained down into that chain of antibody reactions. 00:21:53.000 --> 00:22:01.000 It's August 16th. Patrick Timpone, OneRadioNetwork.com. We're talking with PhD Dr. Ray Peat. So let's 00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:08.000 see. So all mammals, we're all producing exosomes in our body and we're always breathing 00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:12.000 them out and breathing them in and everybody's sharing them? 00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:13.000 Yeah. 00:22:13.000 --> 00:22:14.000 Kind of? 00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:15.000 Yeah. 00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:22.000 And the purpose of that is to what? Why did God and nature, why are we doing this? 00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:34.000 It's probably some sort of a biological cooperative self-sustaining and balancing ecological process. 00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:46.000 An ecosystem, the ecosystem achieves some stability, meaning that your environment is 00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:56.000 being detected not just through what eats what, but through what subtly modifies. 00:22:56.000 --> 00:23:02.000 Each organism, if we modify it a little bit, it's almost like a genetic update that we 00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:03.000 share with each other. 00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:10.000 Yeah, a complex sensing of your environment, not just what you ate for breakfast. 00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:15.000 So do you think this is how the species evolved this far? We've been doing this for a million 00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:16.000 years? 00:23:16.000 --> 00:23:29.000 Yeah. Since the 1940s and 50s, people have been seeing this sharing of genes horizontally 00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:42.000 as a very powerful part of evolution and maintenance of our physiology and ecosystems. 00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:51.000 So allopathic medicine went wrong when Pasteur cooked the books and developed the idea that 00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:56.000 these viruses come from somewhere else and we needed to kill them? 00:23:56.000 --> 00:24:11.000 Oh, basically, yeah. That idea that it's all reducible to one pathogen, or the pathogen 00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:20.000 is always just part of a complex ecological process. For example, if you don't have enough 00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:29.000 food, then the dirt in your environment is going to become a potential pathogen. 00:24:29.000 --> 00:24:36.000 Then why do some people get flu symptoms once a year or whatever, or cold symptoms? What's 00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:42.000 the difference between those that do and those that don't? 00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:54.000 Partly there's a tough period when the immune system is being adjusted and the farther out 00:24:54.000 --> 00:25:06.000 of a balanced society and ecosystem we are, the harder those challenges are. So probably 00:25:06.000 --> 00:25:14.000 there were cultures and societies in which people didn't even notice having childhood 00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:25.000 sicknesses. But then for several generations, the childhood sicknesses took care of most 00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:32.000 of the epidemics and those things got more specialized and deranged than those things 00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:44.000 that were managed in a subtle way, more or less unnoticed. Those things started creating 00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:54.000 bigger imbalances of epidemics and then you would get a childhood disease that would run 00:25:54.000 --> 00:26:03.000 its course for two or three generations and then fade out. All of the famous childhood 00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:14.000 diseases that existed in the period of vaccinology, they had all run their statistical course 00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:23.000 rising, peaking, fading away to almost nothing by the time the vaccines came in. Then the 00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:30.000 vaccines took credit for the natural history of our adjustment to our environment. 00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:37.000 So even polio virus, people argue, that it wasn't some obscure virus that just appeared 00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:42.000 and made people sick, that it was all about people getting poisoning, I think, with DDT 00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:44.000 and other things. 00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:52.000 Yeah, that besides the fact that the hypodermic needle was invented a couple hundred years 00:26:52.000 --> 00:27:00.000 ago and doctors found that they could more easily monopolize drug treatments instead 00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:08.000 of making a tea out of your drugs. They would make a potion and then inject it into you. 00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:20.000 So medicine took over the idea of treating by injection and the paralytic polio, if you 00:27:20.000 --> 00:27:29.000 can find on the internet, a lot of good historical articles showing no matter what the doctors 00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:38.000 were injecting, the paralytic polio would concentrate on whichever part of the body 00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:46.000 received the injection. Even injected vitamins would predispose that arm or leg to become 00:27:46.000 --> 00:27:47.000 paralyzed. 00:27:47.000 --> 00:27:55.000 So if you were perfectly healthy, I mean the most healthy person on the planet, and you 00:27:55.000 --> 00:28:01.000 breathed in some exosomes from me that, I don't know, that I was trying to update 00:28:01.000 --> 00:28:05.000 your genome, I mean, you couldn't die from it, right? 00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:14.000 No, no, I don't worry about the epidemics and especially COVID. 00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:22.000 I haven't had a cold for, I don't remember how long the last time was, 40 years maybe. 00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:30.000 Same here with me. So then the whole COVID thing was really just made up, the idea of 00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:33.000 COVID-19, it was just made up. 00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:43.000 Yeah, there are several very good investigators with an hour or more explanation on the internet 00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:57.000 David Martin, as one goes into the history, Michael Yeadon, very recently had an hour 00:28:57.000 --> 00:29:06.000 full interview in which he dissects the official story, shows that no part of the official 00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:17.000 pandemic story and vaccine story has any basis in fact. Absolutely no part of it is what 00:29:17.000 --> 00:29:19.000 they say it is. 00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:27.000 So if you wanted to not get a genetic update from one another, would a mask block those 00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:29.000 exosomes? 00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:31.000 Very slightly. 00:29:31.000 --> 00:29:38.000 But why would you or don't we need the updates from everybody? 00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:51.000 Basically, it's beneficial to get your little exosome updates. 00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:58.000 So then, so the whole vaccine thing from day one is just not right. 00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:10.000 Yeah, all the way back, the one vaccine that was used for hundreds or thousands of years 00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:22.000 turned out to be used in an organized way, the smallpox vaccine, finally having eradicated 00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:30.000 it in most of the countries of the world, they finally got together and used the vaccine 00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:42.000 in an intelligent way, finding outbreaks, closing in, encircling those outbreaks and 00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:50.000 using the vaccination only in those areas until there was no more smallpox left in the 00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:51.000 world. 00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:58.000 But that wasn't at all good for the vaccine industry. 00:30:58.000 --> 00:31:06.000 There was no more need for a smallpox vaccine when they used it intelligently to eliminate 00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:11.000 that particular strain of the problem. 00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:16.000 So where did this smallpox molecule come from? 00:31:16.000 --> 00:31:19.000 It had to come from humans at some point, right? 00:31:19.000 --> 00:31:20.000 From cows. 00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:21.000 From cows. 00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:22.000 Wow. 00:31:22.000 --> 00:31:36.000 So do you think that somebody could create some kind of a make-believe virus in a lab, 00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:42.000 you know, the whole China-Wuhan thing, somehow release it in the air, I don't know, and 00:31:42.000 --> 00:31:45.000 then people could share it? 00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:48.000 Is that possible? 00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:53.000 It doesn't sound illogical, does it? 00:31:53.000 --> 00:31:54.000 I mean... 00:31:54.000 --> 00:32:08.000 The U.S. Department of Defense, they adopted the biological toxin researchers, both from 00:32:08.000 --> 00:32:19.000 Japan and Nazi Germany at the end of the war, or even during the war, and created their 00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:30.000 own ongoing biological warfare lab, which nominally Richard Nixon terminated with destruction 00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:37.000 of the germ warfare material, supposedly in 1969. 00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:49.000 But through the 1940s, for example, the army in Boston in particular, and Fort Detrick, 00:32:49.000 --> 00:32:59.000 and two or three test sites around the country, they were testing aerosols of many different 00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:05.000 organisms, including the potential of aerosolizing polio. 00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:17.000 And one of the people working on that project became paralyzed and dropped out of the military 00:33:17.000 --> 00:33:28.000 program of aerosol germ research, and went back to the University of Mississippi to teach 00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:40.000 medicine, and wrote the most famous, extremely ignorant physiology textbook, A.C. Guyton, 00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:45.000 the most famous medical book in history. 00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:55.000 But he turned to textbook writing because he was unable to continue his work in germ 00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:58.000 warfare research. 00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:07.000 But that was the business for 20 or 30 years of our government, creating aerosols to see 00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:17.000 how effective it was to spread, disabling bacteria and viruses and other things. 00:34:17.000 --> 00:34:19.000 Was it deemed to be effective? 00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:22.000 I mean, do they live out there floating around? 00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:26.000 No, they weren't controllable enough. 00:34:26.000 --> 00:34:37.000 The ones that were really put to use were the crop diseases, fungus, for example, to 00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:41.000 destroy crops in the country you wanted to knock out. 00:34:41.000 --> 00:34:46.000 Oh, if you want to kill somebody's crop that you were one of your enemies. 00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:47.000 Yeah. 00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:54.000 So to really get something poisonous in your body, you almost have to get it injected. 00:34:54.000 --> 00:34:56.000 Or in your food. 00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:57.000 Or in your food. 00:34:57.000 --> 00:34:58.000 Eat it. 00:34:58.000 --> 00:34:59.000 Take it in. 00:34:59.000 --> 00:35:00.000 Take it in. 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:11.000 They have carcinogenic bacteria, for example, that are a combination of a viral nucleic acid 00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:19.000 and the bacteria to make it spreadable through food so it can give you cancer of the digestive 00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:22.000 system very quickly and predictably. 00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:26.000 So that's a little poison that you have to ingest. 00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:28.000 Yeah. 00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:39.000 Those have been put to use at least as attempted assassination tools. 00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:44.000 If I epatrachate one of those guys, could I breathe it out and share it with somebody 00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:46.000 else through the air? 00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:56.000 That particular bacteria, I think, was not very spreadable through the air. 00:35:56.000 --> 00:36:06.000 So the whole China virus, Wuhan thing, is there any there there? 00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:10.000 Well, the intent was there. 00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:18.000 We know what Ralph Berrick was doing in Fort Dedrick, at least on the surface, the things 00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:19.000 he admitted. 00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:26.000 And what he admitted are horrendously criminal. 00:36:26.000 --> 00:36:37.000 And so you have to wonder if classified things might not have been even worse than designing 00:36:37.000 --> 00:36:44.000 viruses intended to attack humans. 00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:54.000 Things that you took out of bats and modified, added parts of other genetic material and 00:36:54.000 --> 00:37:00.000 engineered the genes until they were able to infect human beings. 00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:04.000 That's what Ralph Berrick's contribution idea was. 00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:10.000 But we haven't really seen any evidence, have we, Dr. Peate, of using Koch's postulates 00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:17.000 or autopsies, you know, proving that something has killed people during this whole COVID 00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:19.000 thing the last two years? 00:37:19.000 --> 00:37:20.000 No. 00:37:20.000 --> 00:37:30.000 When someone dies, you can test their lungs or blood, and you can often find several different 00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:38.000 things that are potentially harmful enough to contribute to their death. 00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:46.000 Sometimes you can't find any cause of the influenza-like condition. 00:37:46.000 --> 00:37:56.000 Sometimes it's because your intestine, under stress, leaked toxins, and it's simply the 00:37:56.000 --> 00:38:05.000 bacterial toxins from your own intestine that killed you and created influenza-like symptoms. 00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:20.000 So if a person is dying from stress and endotoxemia, and you happen to find some of the COVID organisms 00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:29.000 in their nose, for example, you can't say that that was the cause of death when there 00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:34.000 are so many other unexamined potential causes. 00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:41.000 But running with the whole exosome idea, and then some people are getting their exosome 00:38:41.000 --> 00:38:46.000 genetic update, and they have a lot of comorbidities, and their terrain is poisoned, they could 00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:49.000 really get sick, potentially die, right? 00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:50.000 Yeah. 00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:58.000 Would this be a form of kind of natural selection kind of thing, where the weak survive? 00:38:58.000 --> 00:39:00.000 Where the weak survive? 00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:02.000 I mean, where the strong survive. 00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:09.000 Oh, yeah, I suppose. 00:39:09.000 --> 00:39:22.000 As people age, in our present types of environment, we accumulate things that weaken our resistance 00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:23.000 in general. 00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:24.000 Yes. 00:39:24.000 --> 00:39:27.000 Not just the immune system, but all of our adaptive things. 00:39:27.000 --> 00:39:32.000 Yes. 00:39:32.000 --> 00:39:39.000 Polyunsaturated fats and iron happen to, each one triggers in different ways our attempt 00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:43.000 to adapt and survive. 00:39:43.000 --> 00:39:53.000 But those attempts to adapt and survive cause us to take up more of the iron and PUFA into 00:39:53.000 --> 00:40:01.000 our systems, and so it becomes a self-propelling decay process, just because of the nature 00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:10.000 of our defensive reactions interacting with the environments that provide too much iron 00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:13.000 and too much PUFA. 00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:17.000 Kind of the classic model for aging in planet Earth these days. 00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:19.000 Yeah. 00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:24.000 That seems to be it. 00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:26.000 Thank you. 00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:29.000 Dr. Ray P.

00:45:19.000 --> 00:45:24.000 This conversation goes back seven years with Dr. Patrick Flanagan. 00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:25.000 Listen. 00:45:25.000 --> 00:45:31.000 And then I discovered that HUNZA water also contained negative ionized hydrogen, 00:45:31.000 --> 00:45:35.000 which is a source of biological electrons. 00:45:35.000 --> 00:45:40.000 When we're young, we have enzymes in our body called dehydrogenase. 00:45:40.000 --> 00:45:48.000 And the purpose of dehydrogenase is to lift off hydrogen ions from the foods we eat. 00:45:48.000 --> 00:45:56.000 And their purpose is to create NADH, which is a chemical that acts as a shuttle in the mitochondria 00:45:56.000 --> 00:46:01.000 for producing all the energy in our body, adenosine triphosphate. 00:46:01.000 --> 00:46:06.000 And when people take this, it causes DNA repair. 00:46:06.000 --> 00:46:11.000 It heals the body from all kinds of oxygen-free radicals. 00:46:11.000 --> 00:46:15.000 It also helps the body recover from damage from radiation. 00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:18.000 Well, we certainly want some of this stuff, right? 00:46:18.000 --> 00:46:21.000 Check out our AquaCure machine. 00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:24.000 AquaCure machine on OneRadioNetwork.com. 00:46:24.000 --> 00:46:26.000 Lifetime warranty. 00:46:26.000 --> 00:46:31.000 And along with the lifetime warranty, a one-year, no questions asked, money-back guarantee. 00:46:31.000 --> 00:46:35.000 If you don't like your results, breathe the gas, bubble the water. 00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:39.000 Listen to what Dr. Flanagan has to say about this and others. 00:46:39.000 --> 00:46:43.000 The AquaCure machine on OneRadioNetwork.com. 00:46:43.000 --> 00:46:45.000 Use promo code OneRadio. 00:46:45.000 --> 00:46:47.000 10% discount. 00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:55.000 From the Hill Country in Texas, broadcasting worldwide, this is OneRadioNetwork.com. 00:46:55.000 --> 00:46:57.000 I'm talking with Dr. Ray Peat. 00:46:57.000 --> 00:46:59.000 Dr. Flanagan has to say about this. 00:46:59.000 --> 00:47:01.000 Oh, we can get Dr. Peat's newsletter. 00:47:01.000 --> 00:47:05.000 It's rayPeatsnewsletter@gmail.com. 00:47:05.000 --> 00:47:11.000 Plural, rayPeatsnewsletter@gmail.com. 00:47:11.000 --> 00:47:17.000 So before we go to the questions, I'm curious, you see some of these old kind of historical, 00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:22.000 you know, Jane Austen kind of shows, Dr. Peat. 00:47:22.000 --> 00:47:30.000 And oftentimes the characters will, you know, get ill or flu or colds when they get weather changes 00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:34.000 and they get chilled and things like that. 00:47:34.000 --> 00:47:37.000 So can you explain why that is? 00:47:37.000 --> 00:47:42.000 Yeah, I'm sure it's all suggestion. 00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:52.000 In Mexico, especially in the 1950s and 60s, it was still a very powerful thing. 00:47:52.000 --> 00:48:00.000 I knew people who were perfectly healthy, but while they were taking a shower, 00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:08.000 the hot water would run out and they would get a brief episode of cold water 00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:14.000 and they would immediately get cold symptoms. 00:48:14.000 --> 00:48:24.000 Eating a cold popsicle, for example, was reputed to bring on the cold. 00:48:24.000 --> 00:48:36.000 Just sucking on a piece of ice, people were conditioned to believe that just because of the concept of cold. 00:48:36.000 --> 00:48:39.000 You would get a cold or flu or something. 00:48:39.000 --> 00:48:45.000 Yeah, and so there was a fear of night air. 00:48:45.000 --> 00:48:52.000 Women, they would keep the windows closed on a bus even when it was too hot inside. 00:48:52.000 --> 00:49:00.000 And women in the evening would put their ribosome around their mouth, 00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:05.000 covering up their mouth and nose so they didn't breathe the cool night air. 00:49:05.000 --> 00:49:08.000 So it was mostly a mind thing, mostly a suggestion. 00:49:08.000 --> 00:49:11.000 I'm convinced of that. 00:49:11.000 --> 00:49:16.000 Wow. Before we go to the emails, I want to ask you about ivermectin. 00:49:16.000 --> 00:49:22.000 Years ago, Dr. Ray Peat, we talked with a lady by the name of Kerry Rivera, 00:49:22.000 --> 00:49:27.000 who was in Mexico, and I think it was 12 years ago when we first heard about ivermectin. 00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:33.000 And she was having great success with giving the autistic kids ivermectin. 00:49:33.000 --> 00:49:38.000 And she said it was because it was getting rid of parasites. 00:49:38.000 --> 00:49:46.000 Wow. What do you make of all of the people that have some kind of symptoms that they think is COVID, 00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:49.000 taking ivermectin and feeling better? 00:49:49.000 --> 00:49:53.000 It's also anti-inflammatory. 00:49:53.000 --> 00:50:03.000 And hydroxychloroquine, it's slightly anti-inflammatory. 00:50:03.000 --> 00:50:14.000 Everything that helps, I think, really is correcting the basic problem of that type of infection, 00:50:14.000 --> 00:50:20.000 which is inflammation leading to fibrosis. 00:50:20.000 --> 00:50:34.000 And if those are extreme, leading to clotting, inflammation and clotting in the long run promote fibrosis. 00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:40.000 But when we do an anti-inflammatory like ivermectin or turmeric and other things, 00:50:40.000 --> 00:50:46.000 isn't inflammation a symptom of a deeper cause? 00:50:46.000 --> 00:50:52.000 Why would getting rid of the inflammation, it doesn't get to the cause, does it? 00:50:52.000 --> 00:51:03.000 Yeah, basically the spike protein covers, if you have enough of it, 00:51:03.000 --> 00:51:17.000 it covers up enough of our ACE2 enzymes, which are the anti-inflammatory part of the endotoxin system. 00:51:17.000 --> 00:51:23.000 And so if you swamp our anti-inflammatory system, 00:51:23.000 --> 00:51:32.000 then you open the way for the intestine to leak endotoxin into the circulatory system, 00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:42.000 leading to the activation of the enzymes that turn polyunsaturated fats into prostaglandins 00:51:42.000 --> 00:51:53.000 that create the explosive storm of inflammatory materials. 00:51:53.000 --> 00:52:02.000 Hmm, wow, wow. So it's anti-inflammatory, you think that's why the ivermectin helps people feel better? 00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:15.000 Yeah, aspirin, all of the safe, old anti-inflammatory drugs can have a radically curing effect. 00:52:15.000 --> 00:52:29.000 And since coagulation problems lead to the stroke and various embolisms and heart problems and so on, 00:52:29.000 --> 00:52:37.000 also the anti-coagulation effect of aspirin following its anti-inflammatory action, 00:52:37.000 --> 00:52:42.000 those all contribute to knocking out the disease at its heart. 00:52:42.000 --> 00:52:50.000 Since our last conversation a month ago, have you had any updates on what you've learned about these injections 00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:55.000 and what's going on with them? Can you add anything further? 00:52:55.000 --> 00:53:09.000 No, I don't think there's anything new, except the claim that people who were fully vaccinated 00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:14.000 are now being reinfected by a different variant. 00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:22.000 I suspect that that's a way of covering up the harm done by the vaccine itself. 00:53:22.000 --> 00:53:32.000 If you have thousands and thousands of fully vaccinated people getting very sick, 00:53:32.000 --> 00:53:44.000 you don't want to blame that lingering after-effects of sickness, you don't want to blame it on the vaccine. 00:53:44.000 --> 00:53:52.000 So you say the vaccine is just weak, that way you can sell a third vaccine. 00:53:52.000 --> 00:53:58.000 Yeah, Foshee's already talking about, you know, we're going to need these boosters for a long time to come. 00:53:58.000 --> 00:54:10.000 Yeah, about a year ago, people at Pfizer were saying, "Gee, if we could find a way to sell a third vaccine, 00:54:10.000 --> 00:54:14.000 here's how many billion dollars we could make from a third one." 00:54:14.000 --> 00:54:24.000 So they got the FDA to approve the idea of a third one, partly on the basis that the sick, 00:54:24.000 --> 00:54:32.000 vaccinated people are being reinfected because of the weakness of the vaccine, 00:54:32.000 --> 00:54:37.000 rather than suffering the side effects of the vaccine. 00:54:37.000 --> 00:54:46.000 And we're seeing so many different videos out from nurses and doctors that are saying that the people that are sick are the vax, 00:54:46.000 --> 00:54:49.000 not the unvax, as we're being told. 00:54:49.000 --> 00:54:54.000 And it's just hard to believe anything that you see out there these days. 00:54:54.000 --> 00:55:06.000 Yeah, if you look back right from the start of February of 2020, everything turns out to be a lie. 00:55:06.000 --> 00:55:09.000 Yeah, to make it all up. 00:55:09.000 --> 00:55:13.000 Well, let's get into some emails. Thanks for being here, as always, sir. 00:55:13.000 --> 00:55:18.000 This is Thomas. He's in Sweden. Wow. 00:55:18.000 --> 00:55:25.000 I managed to get my hands on some progesterone cream, which I've applied to my head and my neck, temples, and forehead a few weeks ago, 00:55:25.000 --> 00:55:32.000 and I started to feel like there's been some real positive changes with my migraines that have been going on for a very long time. 00:55:32.000 --> 00:55:33.000 A little clear-headed. 00:55:33.000 --> 00:55:39.000 However, I've slowly started to get more and more problems with sensitive teeth and irritable gums, 00:55:39.000 --> 00:55:41.000 and I haven't really changed anything else. 00:55:41.000 --> 00:55:53.000 So I wonder if the progesterone cream could be the reason. And just in general, what does Dr. Peat suggest when it comes to these issues in my mouth? 00:55:53.000 --> 00:56:04.000 So he took the progesterone cream, started to get relief from migraines, but now he's having some issues with his teeth and in his mouth. 00:56:04.000 --> 00:56:11.000 The problem with migraine starts at the nutritional and hormonal level, 00:56:11.000 --> 00:56:29.000 and sometimes just a dose or two of progesterone can activate your thyroid to the point that it regulates your digestive and nutritional processes 00:56:29.000 --> 00:56:32.000 and takes care of the migraines permanently. 00:56:32.000 --> 00:56:44.000 Other times, the progesterone might be enough to alleviate the headache, but not to get your thyroid and digestion back on track. 00:56:44.000 --> 00:56:55.000 And so it's really important to look at problems in your diet and check your temperature and pulse. 00:56:55.000 --> 00:57:03.000 And do some of your blood tests for TSH and vitamin D in particular. 00:57:03.000 --> 00:57:10.000 Your vitamin D, did you, have we heard you say about 5,000 units a day is good? 00:57:10.000 --> 00:57:13.000 Yeah, that's a good one. 00:57:13.000 --> 00:57:19.000 Almost always in the long run, that's effective and not too much. 00:57:19.000 --> 00:57:28.000 And how about dosage on the progesterone? Can you give a general idea of what people could start with, progesterone cream? 00:57:28.000 --> 00:57:42.000 Yeah, 40 years ago, there were two times that I happened to have a full-blown migraine when I had progesterone at the end, 00:57:42.000 --> 00:57:52.000 and taking 100 milligrams of it, within two or three minutes, the headache totally disappeared. 00:57:52.000 --> 00:58:08.000 And in one of those cases, I got the migraine from not realizing that the fluoridated water was knocking out my T3 thyroid supplement. 00:58:08.000 --> 00:58:16.000 So watching my thyroid more carefully and my diet, I didn't need it anymore. 00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:28.000 But for a man, 100 milligrams of progesterone is a very powerful dose that will usually knock out even a migraine. 00:58:28.000 --> 00:58:41.000 Women, if their estrogen is extremely high, sometimes won't get an effect from a dose as big as 100 milligrams. 00:58:41.000 --> 00:58:54.000 For them, it's important to start correcting right at the foundation with your thyroid and your avoiding irritating foods. 00:58:54.000 --> 00:59:00.000 And then ongoing though, for men and women, you're more in the 50 range or 25 milligrams? 00:59:00.000 --> 00:59:12.000 Yeah, daily 20 or 30 milligrams during the luteal phase of their cycle. That's considered a full replacement dose. 00:59:12.000 --> 00:59:25.000 Similar with pregnenolone, about 20 or 30 milligrams per day for both men and women will help to keep the stress hormones down. 00:59:25.000 --> 00:59:32.000 Here is Marion. Oh, Marion says, "I received it for many years and now I can't. How can I get it again?" 00:59:32.000 --> 00:59:39.000 Ray Peat's newsletter. So it's rayPeatsnewsletter.com, right? Gmail.com. 00:59:39.000 --> 00:59:42.000 Right, there's an S after the T. 00:59:42.000 --> 00:59:46.000 Ray Peat's newsletter at gmail.com. 00:59:46.000 --> 00:59:51.000 Okay. Here is a long-time listener. Thanks for having Dr. Peat on. 00:59:51.000 --> 01:00:00.000 I'm 72, not seen a doctor in over 40 years. I'm seeking a solution to remedy prostate inflammation issues. 01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:09.000 Have you historically, have you without giving medical advice, found a supplement that is really effective? 01:00:09.000 --> 01:00:16.000 There are way too many best number one products out there to try. Best regards from Michael. 01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:20.000 So, you know, prostate inflammation. 01:00:20.000 --> 01:00:35.000 Yeah, working on your system in general to reduce inflammation. The first thing is to make sure you aren't going into a stress condition every night. 01:00:35.000 --> 01:00:52.000 And keeping your blood sugar steady is essential for that. And you need good nutrition, plenty of calcium relative to phosphate, enough vitamin D to handle the calcium, 01:00:52.000 --> 01:01:10.000 which keeps your energy system running, supporting the thyroid function. And the thyroid, vitamin D, and calcium are sort of a kernel of energy support substances 01:01:10.000 --> 01:01:19.000 that will steady your blood sugar and keep down the inflammatory processes in general. 01:01:19.000 --> 01:01:28.000 So that's why you like orange juice and vitamin and milk because they're both calcium, high calcium? 01:01:28.000 --> 01:01:37.000 Well, in the case of orange juice, there are many anti-inflammatory substances in the orange juice. 01:01:37.000 --> 01:02:01.000 The potassium and sugar are a big part of reducing the inflammation, but these bioflavonoids of the orange are very powerful, reducing the inflammation caused by iron and plastic laminins, for example. 01:02:01.000 --> 01:02:05.000 And how do we get to this too much iron? Where does it come from? 01:02:05.000 --> 01:02:29.000 For example, meat, fish, shellfish, grains are fairly bad sources for iron, but mostly meat, fish, and shellfish. 01:02:29.000 --> 01:02:50.000 One class of shellfish is very low in iron. The shrimp, crab, lobster, scallop, squid type are high in copper and low in iron. 01:02:50.000 --> 01:03:05.000 So scallops have got a lot of copper rather than iron, so that's a good choice. They taste good too. But if you like fish, can you put something on the fish to balance out the high iron in them? 01:03:05.000 --> 01:03:14.000 Having coffee with your meat or fish helps to block the absorption of the iron. 01:03:14.000 --> 01:03:16.000 Really? What's in the coffee? 01:03:16.000 --> 01:03:43.000 Partly it's the phosphate, but a lot of the polyphenols are similar to what's in orange juice. Tea and coffee have a group of chemicals that are very good for blocking iron absorption. 01:03:43.000 --> 01:03:50.000 Where do fish get all that iron? Just swimming around in the ocean, doc? 01:03:50.000 --> 01:04:04.000 Yeah, if they have red blood, they have to have iron. And shellfish like squid and scallops... 01:04:04.000 --> 01:04:07.000 And lobster, they've got the blue blood, right? 01:04:07.000 --> 01:04:10.000 Yeah, they have blue copper-based blood. 01:04:10.000 --> 01:04:12.000 How about oysters? 01:04:12.000 --> 01:04:19.000 They happen to accumulate very large amounts of iron as well as copper. 01:04:19.000 --> 01:04:24.000 Oh, they do? So if you do these at night, they could disrupt sleep, right? 01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:51.000 Yeah. All of the things that are potential excitants, the presence of iron risks excitatory excess and that facilitates the uptake of calcium, which is another excitation sustainer. 01:04:51.000 --> 01:05:03.000 And together with aging, the tissues take up a mixture of calcium sulfate and iron. 01:05:03.000 --> 01:05:12.000 Is there any other thing you could take other than coffee to balance the iron if you had to have fish at night? 01:05:12.000 --> 01:05:29.000 The vegetable substances, some of the things in orange juice like ascorbic acid stimulate iron absorption. 01:05:29.000 --> 01:05:37.000 The bioflavonoids, which you can get from many other fruits and vegetables, block iron absorption. 01:05:37.000 --> 01:05:47.000 I see. Just learned my husband writes, "Vicky, who's 68, has type 2 diabetes with a sugar level of 199. 01:05:47.000 --> 01:05:54.000 From your treatment experience, what can we do to get his levels back to normal without taking drugs? 01:05:54.000 --> 01:06:01.000 He doesn't eat sweets and he walks. But thanks for having Dr. Peat on your show." 01:06:01.000 --> 01:06:11.000 The things that reduce stress and inflammation help to get oxidation of sugar going. 01:06:11.000 --> 01:06:17.000 And vitamin D and calcium are crucial in that. 01:06:17.000 --> 01:06:21.000 Vitamin D and calcium to help reduce stress. 01:06:21.000 --> 01:06:33.000 Working to keep your mitochondria responding to the thyroid hormone so that they can oxidize glucose. 01:06:33.000 --> 01:06:38.000 Dr. Peat, thank you for being on the show. 01:06:38.000 --> 01:06:51.000 So are you suggesting that I get my TSH level below 1 and keep upping my thyroid medication or my pig thyroid they're using until I get there? 01:06:51.000 --> 01:07:12.000 There was one study in which they found in relation to their TSH scores, they found that the higher the TSH in the group was, the more risk of thyroid cancer they had. 01:07:12.000 --> 01:07:23.000 And in a group completely without thyroid cancer, they were below 0.4 on the TSH scale. 01:07:23.000 --> 01:07:43.000 And the areas that are supplemented with iodine, even the salt, the amount of iodine in salt is sometimes several times higher than our requirement for iodine. 01:07:43.000 --> 01:08:00.000 And in those populations, thyroid disease and thyroid cancer is very seriously increased just from that slight chronic antithyroid effect of the chronic excess iodine. 01:08:00.000 --> 01:08:04.000 So that's why you're not supported as long as I've talked to you. 01:08:04.000 --> 01:08:07.000 I believe you don't like taking supplemental iodine at all. 01:08:07.000 --> 01:08:09.000 You think it's unnecessary. 01:08:09.000 --> 01:08:11.000 And dangerous. 01:08:11.000 --> 01:08:12.000 And dangerous. Wow. 01:08:12.000 --> 01:08:17.000 And so what if we're doing this, I think it's just pure salt. 01:08:17.000 --> 01:08:23.000 I think it's the, what do they call it? 01:08:23.000 --> 01:08:26.000 You know what I mean? It's a Morton salt, but it's pickling and canning, right? 01:08:26.000 --> 01:08:29.000 Oh yeah, that's what I use. 01:08:29.000 --> 01:08:34.000 That's what you use, yeah. So there's no iodine in there. There's a little, there's enough, but it's not too much? 01:08:34.000 --> 01:09:02.000 Yeah, there were studies a few decades ago of the Americans' iodine intake, and because of the iodized salt and other use of iodine in food additives, there was essentially no iodine deficiency in the U.S., but lots of iodine excess. 01:09:02.000 --> 01:09:04.000 Lots of excess, wow. 01:09:04.000 --> 01:09:09.000 I can remember the days when we used to talk to Dr. Hal Huggins, remember him? 01:09:09.000 --> 01:09:12.000 Great guy with the mercury fillings and all that. 01:09:12.000 --> 01:09:25.000 And he claimed that people that were on the pickling and canning had much better, he called them blood chemistries, over many years that he looked at, than people that are on sea salt and all these different salts. 01:09:25.000 --> 01:09:27.000 Yeah, it's very clean stuff. 01:09:27.000 --> 01:09:32.000 It's clean stuff, yeah. And it's cheap too. What is it, a buck and a half or two bucks for a big box of it? 01:09:32.000 --> 01:09:37.000 Yeah, I think it's over two pounds for a really big box. 01:09:37.000 --> 01:09:39.000 And so it's just pure salt, nothing else? 01:09:39.000 --> 01:09:40.000 Yeah, yeah. 01:09:40.000 --> 01:09:41.000 Wow. 01:09:41.000 --> 01:10:08.000 Here's an email, "I'm a middle-aged guy with high fasting blood sugar and I start eating nutritious foods that are recommended by Dr. Peat and also supplements thyroid to increase the metabolic rate. What would happen to his fasting blood sugar level? Would it decrease to what it considered normal or would it stay elevated because high blood sugar has a protective function in middle and old age?" 01:10:08.000 --> 01:10:19.000 Let's see, what's he asking here? If a middle-aged guy with high fasting blood sugar starts eating nutritious foods recommended, hmm, do you know what he's asking? 01:10:19.000 --> 01:10:43.000 Well, as your body temperature goes up and your thyroid function and vitamin D go up, your parathyroid hormone goes down and parathyroid hormone is an antagonist to oxidative respiratory metabolism. 01:10:43.000 --> 01:10:55.000 And so by suppressing your parathyroid hormone, you're freeing up your oxidative thyroid ability to oxidize glucose. 01:10:55.000 --> 01:11:12.000 And so your body temperature is likely to increase under the influence of calcium, vitamin D and thyroid and getting enough salt is part of that, salting your food to taste. 01:11:12.000 --> 01:11:33.000 And so your body temperature goes up and you're using the glucose, so it really doesn't matter very much what your average blood glucose is as long as you don't drop it too low. 01:11:33.000 --> 01:11:48.000 So, what would be going on if your, say your body temperature was 98 in the morning, which seems reasonable and your TSH is still high? What would you go, how would you go from there? 01:11:48.000 --> 01:12:07.000 Checking your temperature later in the day after eating and your pulse rate, lots of people will wake up with a 98 degree temperature and sometimes their pulse rate will be slower or fast. 01:12:07.000 --> 01:12:20.000 But after eating a good breakfast, including plenty of carbohydrates, their temperature will often fall very low. 01:12:20.000 --> 01:12:25.000 I've seen it go from 98 down to 96 by 11 o'clock in the morning. 01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:46.000 And that means that their temperature at waking was held up by the stress hormones, mostly cortisol, sometimes a mixture of cortisol and adrenaline, which you can tell by the pulse rate as well as the temperature. 01:12:46.000 --> 01:13:06.000 And then getting your blood sugar up by eating enough carbohydrate lowers the cortisol and/or adrenaline and you'll see that in the absence of stress, your body temperature is very low. 01:13:06.000 --> 01:13:14.000 So, in an ideal world, our body temperature is around 98.6 all the time? 01:13:14.000 --> 01:13:22.000 No, it should drop low at 2 in the morning or so when you're deeply asleep. 01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:38.000 But then it should quickly pop right up to 98.6 after breakfast and stay right in that vicinity, that's oral temperature, right up until around sunset when it starts dropping again. 01:13:38.000 --> 01:13:45.000 Who was the fellow, Dr. Peat, that really did the whole Broda-Barnes? 01:13:45.000 --> 01:13:56.000 I mean, he went through a whole thing where he didn't want you to move much and everything and just as quietly as possible get your awaking temperature. 01:13:56.000 --> 01:14:02.000 But that's kind of counter indication of what you said about checking it after breakfast. 01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:08.000 Oh yeah, he relied just on that one measurement. 01:14:08.000 --> 01:14:32.000 I noticed in Eugene during a hot, humid summer, extremely hypothyroid people kept up a normal temperature all through the day just because the air was 90 degrees or so and even if they died, it would take them a while to cool off. 01:14:32.000 --> 01:14:43.000 So you have to take into account the pulse rate and the effect of food and the time of day and look at the whole picture. 01:14:43.000 --> 01:14:57.000 In all your experience over many years on the thyroid, which you've studied a lot, even in men and women, a pulse rate of what would be kind of like what you want to kind of look for, work your way towards? 01:14:57.000 --> 01:15:13.000 A healthy, youngish person at rest, anywhere between 18 and 40, it's good to have your resting pulse at 80 or 85. 01:15:13.000 --> 01:15:16.000 Is that right? Wow. 01:15:16.000 --> 01:15:21.000 It's difficult for me to imagine that for myself because I'm at 60 all the time, you know. 01:15:21.000 --> 01:15:31.000 But you think I could get to 80 as I get healthier or my thyroid gets healthier, but actually move up and I wouldn't feel all stressed out? 01:15:31.000 --> 01:15:45.000 Yeah, when your TSH and your parathyroid hormone are both at the bottom of the scale, that means your cells are running autonomously at a higher rate. 01:15:45.000 --> 01:15:47.000 At a higher energy level. 01:15:47.000 --> 01:16:00.000 And so just sitting at rest, you're burning a lot of sugar and oxygen that will keep your temperature and pulse rate up. 01:16:00.000 --> 01:16:05.000 And why is it good to have that pulse rate there? What's it telling you? 01:16:05.000 --> 01:16:16.000 You're making carbon dioxide at a high rate and running energy through the system. 01:16:16.000 --> 01:16:25.000 As you increase mitochondrial oxidation, you decrease free radical oxidation. 01:16:25.000 --> 01:16:45.000 A low thyroid person who isn't producing much heat or CO2 will even at rest be churning out the lipid peroxidizing type of oxides. 01:16:45.000 --> 01:17:08.000 And as you run the mitochondrion faster, burning sugar, producing CO2 and making heat, you will turn off the pro-inflammatory lipid peroxidizing random electrons. 01:17:08.000 --> 01:17:15.000 They're being sucked up by the properly used oxygen. 01:17:15.000 --> 01:17:19.000 Women generally have a faster pulse rate than men, right? 01:17:19.000 --> 01:17:22.000 Yeah, the heart is smaller. 01:17:22.000 --> 01:17:29.000 Oh, really? So they generally have, is it 5 to 10 beats more than men? 01:17:29.000 --> 01:17:31.000 Something like that. 01:17:31.000 --> 01:17:40.000 Here's an email from Labby, great name. "Hi Dr. Peter, I'd like to utilize aspirin due to your information about it since I take it quite often. 01:17:40.000 --> 01:17:45.000 What are benefits to getting in a bulk as opposed to tablets from the store? 01:17:45.000 --> 01:17:51.000 Do they contain excipients that the bulk aspirin does not?" 01:17:51.000 --> 01:18:01.000 Oh, sure, there's usually paraffin, sometimes talc in the tablet. 01:18:01.000 --> 01:18:19.000 Until I was able to get the bulk, I would always pour boiling water over an aspirin tablet and let it disintegrate so that the paraffin would float to the surface and the talc would sink to the bottom. 01:18:19.000 --> 01:18:24.000 Wow, so just a little bear, they have these little excipients in there? 01:18:24.000 --> 01:18:27.000 Bear aspirin in the tablets? 01:18:27.000 --> 01:18:35.000 The cleanest aspirins were usually the ones you get with the supermarket's brand name. 01:18:35.000 --> 01:18:37.000 No kidding. 01:18:37.000 --> 01:19:01.000 The fewest harmful excipients, but you can get a clean USP, just the same quality of aspirin that you would get in the tablets, but you can in bulk, sold for horses for example. 01:19:01.000 --> 01:19:05.000 Then you can trust that it doesn't have the excipients. 01:19:05.000 --> 01:19:11.000 And then aspirin, do you take it fairly regularly and what does it do for you? 01:19:11.000 --> 01:19:14.000 I try to remember to take some every night. 01:19:14.000 --> 01:19:17.000 Really? How many milligrams? 01:19:17.000 --> 01:19:19.000 About 300. 01:19:19.000 --> 01:19:21.000 It would be like one bear, right? 01:19:21.000 --> 01:19:22.000 Yeah. 01:19:22.000 --> 01:19:25.000 And what does that do, help you sleep? 01:19:25.000 --> 01:19:28.000 I just do it on general principles. 01:19:28.000 --> 01:19:36.000 Just general principles. So aspirin is pretty interesting, is it really from the willow bark thing? Is that where it came from? 01:19:36.000 --> 01:19:47.000 It's the same stuff that they used to get from natural sources like bark, but the stuff you buy is even cleaner. 01:19:47.000 --> 01:20:00.000 It's a very simple chemical that doesn't have manufacturing impurities like a lot of chemicals do. 01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:13.000 An emailer says, "Wasn't Samuel Hahnemann one of the first doctors to challenge the detoxification theory?" 01:20:13.000 --> 01:20:19.000 Oh, with the homeopathy? 01:20:19.000 --> 01:20:21.000 Yeah, the homeopathy guy. 01:20:21.000 --> 01:20:30.000 Yeah, the basic orientation was that you trusted your immune system to do the right thing. 01:20:30.000 --> 01:20:45.000 When I was about 10 years old, I read some of the old homeopathy books my grandparents had and saw that homeopathy in that sense was very sensible. 01:20:45.000 --> 01:20:58.000 It just meant not intervening with toxic chemicals like mercury and arsenic, which had been very, very common. 01:20:58.000 --> 01:21:06.000 Women were commonly given arsenic because of supposed anemia. 01:21:06.000 --> 01:21:14.000 And in general, is aspirin anti-inflammatory? 01:21:14.000 --> 01:21:17.000 Aspirin, yes, very important. 01:21:17.000 --> 01:21:19.000 Anti-inflammatory. 01:21:19.000 --> 01:21:29.000 Here's one. "Is Tupelo honey good for diabetics? It's one of the only honeys based on fructose." 01:21:29.000 --> 01:21:40.000 Oh, no. I think all honey is roughly half fructose and half glucose. 01:21:40.000 --> 01:21:52.000 The thing with honey you have to watch out for is whether the bees were eating industrial chemicals or allergens. 01:21:52.000 --> 01:22:00.000 The allergen that the bee eats can be passed into the honey. 01:22:00.000 --> 01:22:05.000 And with bees, you don't really know exactly what's going on and what they're eating, do you? 01:22:05.000 --> 01:22:12.000 I mean, they claim some honey is organic, but how do they know where they go? 01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:27.000 You have to have lots of land devoted to organic farming before you can tell that the bees have a range of how far they can fly. 01:22:27.000 --> 01:22:39.000 They can go quite a distance, but after a speed, they have a definite radius for every hive. 01:22:39.000 --> 01:22:54.000 I think that New Zealand has some good standards that they claim that some of the best where you got to have like five or ten miles or something of no chemicals and stuff. 01:22:54.000 --> 01:23:03.000 Here is Mark. He's taking 30,000 milligrams of D every day, vitamin D and K combo in an MCT oil. 01:23:03.000 --> 01:23:05.000 The results have been really amazing. 01:23:05.000 --> 01:23:12.000 I'm almost 63 and work full days on the hot South Carolina heat. 01:23:12.000 --> 01:23:19.000 I've also been able to reduce my needed sleep time from two to six hours a night. 01:23:19.000 --> 01:23:28.000 So do you think that this D3 is hormone boosting and really I should continue if I'm having a good result? 01:23:28.000 --> 01:23:35.000 You should have an occasional blood test if you're taking large amounts like that. 01:23:35.000 --> 01:23:49.000 I don't know of a toxic level being reached with 30,000 per day, but it's conceivable. 01:23:49.000 --> 01:23:54.000 So maybe twice a year would be good to check your level. 01:23:54.000 --> 01:24:02.000 And then if you get out in the sun a lot, I guess it would be reasonable to think that you could get too much, right? 01:24:02.000 --> 01:24:13.000 No, no, no one is known to have raised their vitamin D from the sun to a dangerous point. 01:24:13.000 --> 01:24:27.000 People working shirtless in the sun hours a day will typically have well over 100, 150 is common for on the blood test. 01:24:27.000 --> 01:24:30.000 But it's not a problem though. It's not a problem. 01:24:30.000 --> 01:24:32.000 Not at all. 01:24:32.000 --> 01:24:40.000 Could you please ask Dr. Peat what diet does he suggest for losing weight that isn't only milk and orange juice? 01:24:40.000 --> 01:24:43.000 Milk and orange juice is good. I like it. 01:24:43.000 --> 01:25:04.000 You can throw in an occasional egg and scallop and be sure to have fiber, raw carrot or cooked mushrooms or bamboo shoots or oat bran cereals, for example. 01:25:04.000 --> 01:25:10.000 And how about gaining weight? What if you want to gain some pounds? What are foods to eat there? That's my job. 01:25:10.000 --> 01:25:24.000 Usually with men in particular, the inability to put on a normal amount of mass, especially muscle, is from having a thyroid problem. 01:25:24.000 --> 01:25:44.000 And the thyroid makes you able to retain magnesium, which lets your cell shift over from mere energy production to anabolic muscle building. 01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:46.000 Muscle building, yeah. 01:25:46.000 --> 01:25:59.000 So the combination of an adequate magnesium in your diet and sometimes a thyroid supplement will suddenly let a man put on muscle. 01:25:59.000 --> 01:26:03.000 Put on muscle, huh? So it's back to that old pesky thyroid again. 01:26:03.000 --> 01:26:07.000 Here's an email from Hussein in Dallas, Texas. 01:26:07.000 --> 01:26:20.000 What should I do about bloating? I drink orange juice with collagen every day, stay away from poofers as much as I can, incorporate dairy and drink milk and I use Progest-D before I go to sleep. 01:26:20.000 --> 01:26:27.000 Also, how many bowel movements do you recommend per day? But he's still having some issues with bloating. What can he look at? 01:26:27.000 --> 01:26:49.000 Some people have a problem with manufactured gelatin. They might call it collagen, but collagen has to be extracted at a mild temperature and it usually costs something like $10 a gram. 01:26:49.000 --> 01:27:02.000 Very expensive. They're really getting gelatin and the gelatin causes many people to get gas. 01:27:02.000 --> 01:27:04.000 The gelatin does? 01:27:04.000 --> 01:27:29.000 Yeah, partly because they might be taking too much or not dissolving it totally enough so that it is incompletely digested by your digestive enzymes, letting bacteria live on what you don't digest. 01:27:29.000 --> 01:27:48.000 Here's an email, Doc, from Finland. Wow, Eric, he's in Finland. I'm curious about chlorine dioxide and its possible use in combating night COVID. How does it compare to the ivermectin and hydroxychlorine thing protocols? 01:27:48.000 --> 01:27:49.000 What was the oxide? 01:27:49.000 --> 01:27:51.000 Chlorine dioxide. 01:27:51.000 --> 01:27:53.000 Oh. 01:27:53.000 --> 01:27:57.000 Yeah, also known as miracle mineral supplement. You know that one? 01:27:57.000 --> 01:28:18.000 Yeah. Even when it's been studied as an additive to treat city water, it has a slight carcinogenic effect. Chlorine compounds are always risky. 01:28:18.000 --> 01:28:24.000 Yeah, so you're just not a fan of using that at all? 01:28:24.000 --> 01:28:36.000 No, the prolonged general use, even at a very low level, do increase the rate of mutations in cancer. 01:28:36.000 --> 01:28:50.000 In general, what are some things that people that are safe and a lot of folks take that in your experience, Dr. Ray Peat, you found to be not the best choice? Can something come to mind for you? 01:28:50.000 --> 01:28:51.000 Oh, yeah, ascorbic acid. 01:28:51.000 --> 01:28:55.000 Ascorbic acid. It is not a vitamin C guy at all, right? 01:28:55.000 --> 01:29:17.000 Yeah, and the manufactured things, ascorbic acid and citric acid, and I think all of those supposedly simple sugar-based food additives, the way they're manufactured makes them very different from the natural substance. 01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:42.000 I years ago found that I could detect the small amount of ascorbic acid that was added to breakfast cereal, bread, canned vegetables, bologna, places you would never expect it would cause migraine-like symptoms. 01:29:42.000 --> 01:29:54.000 And still I could drink a gallon of orange juice or other natural source of vitamin C every day with no reaction. 01:29:54.000 --> 01:30:10.000 Speaking of that, do I remember that you recommend, if folks get organic grass-fed milk if you can at the store, to do low-fat rather than full-fat? Is that true? Why is that? 01:30:10.000 --> 01:30:23.000 If you're going to drink two quarts and more per day, you're going to get fat most likely on full-fat unless you're working on the farm. 01:30:23.000 --> 01:30:27.000 But for me, though, if I wanted to gain a little weight, it's okay, I just do the full-fat stuff, right? 01:30:27.000 --> 01:30:30.000 Sure, it's a good source of vitamins. 01:30:30.000 --> 01:30:43.000 This is from Patrick in Lake City, Florida. "Do you know what I could be done for life? Home isn't a dog." Thank you. Oh, that comes up every now and then. 01:30:43.000 --> 01:31:03.000 I think, as in people, it's basically a metabolic thyroid problem. And again, the calcium and vitamin D support for your thyroid metabolism are probably going to be helpful. 01:31:03.000 --> 01:31:10.000 So get more calcium in the dog's diet, which would be bones, right? Maybe bones? 01:31:10.000 --> 01:31:26.000 Well, the bones come with too much phosphate, and very often lead, cadmium and other things go into the bones. So cottage cheese is something dogs almost always like. 01:31:26.000 --> 01:31:35.000 Oh, cottage cheese? That'll get more calcium in there. And what was the other substance that we like for lipomas? 01:31:35.000 --> 01:31:37.000 Some vitamin D. 01:31:37.000 --> 01:31:42.000 Vitamin D. So you could give a little bit of the vitamin D supplement that we take ourselves to them. 01:31:42.000 --> 01:31:44.000 Yeah. 01:31:44.000 --> 01:31:51.000 Does Dr. Peat think that homeopathic cell salts are a good way to get minerals? 01:31:51.000 --> 01:32:02.000 A very expensive way. You get those same minerals just eating a regular diet. 01:32:02.000 --> 01:32:20.000 As an addition to my previous question, Dr. Peat, polysocanols and their benefits. Polycosanol. 01:32:20.000 --> 01:32:43.000 Yeah, polycosanol. Yeah. 01:32:43.000 --> 01:33:11.000 And a lot of other sources. Wax. Very few people chew sugar cane. So another source is the leaf, the wax on green leafy vegetables. And on the cereal bran, it's a coating, waterproofing on plant material. 01:33:11.000 --> 01:33:19.000 A couple more, then we'll let you go here and see if I can clean up a few of them from last time, if I can get to them. 01:33:19.000 --> 01:33:31.000 Dr. Peat, why does or doesn't fructose from juice or fruit cause a fatty liver since it can only be exclusively being metabolized by the liver? 01:33:31.000 --> 01:33:36.000 Jason, Feng, and others seem to be concerned about damaged liver from fructose. 01:33:36.000 --> 01:33:44.000 That's just another myth. Our brain can metabolize fructose. 01:33:44.000 --> 01:33:57.000 Boy, I tell you what, if I wake up in the middle of the night, which is often, nothing like a fresh squeeze orange juice and boy, that puts me back to Gaga Land pretty quick. What's going on there? 01:33:57.000 --> 01:34:11.000 The potassium is one of the things that help us use the glucose oxidatively and so it stabilizes our blood sugar. 01:34:11.000 --> 01:34:16.000 Or it's hard to find. Do you squeeze your own organic oranges? What do you do? 01:34:16.000 --> 01:34:36.000 When we can get sweet organic oranges, otherwise we'll use unorganic and just be very careful about the peelings to not get any of the peeling material crushed into the juice. 01:34:36.000 --> 01:34:43.000 Oh, so you think most of the cooties are in the peelings and not in the orange itself? 01:34:43.000 --> 01:34:44.000 Most of it, yeah. 01:34:44.000 --> 01:34:56.000 Wow, that's good news because you can get unconventional or conventional fresh juice a lot of places. It's hard to find organic fresh juice. Interesting. 01:34:56.000 --> 01:35:06.000 Yeah, and often the organic oranges, because of the higher demand, they'll often be unsweet. 01:35:06.000 --> 01:35:17.000 Unsweet, yeah. So we like the sweet ones. Well, Dr. Peat, thank you so much for being here. We appreciate it. Thanks for coming on the show once a month. 01:35:17.000 --> 01:35:23.000 Okay, how is your show doing against the censorship? 01:35:23.000 --> 01:35:35.000 Well, they put us in censor heaven on YouTube, but other than that we're doing okay. So we have BitChute and places, but thanks for asking. 01:35:35.000 --> 01:35:41.000 Yeah, YouTube, they just knocked us off the planet there. 01:35:41.000 --> 01:35:53.000 Yeah, what do you think your role is against the oppressors? Are you making headway? 01:35:53.000 --> 01:36:03.000 I don't know, you know. I don't know. We just keep putting it out there and talking to folks like you and a lot of the things about the vaccine. 01:36:03.000 --> 01:36:12.000 But, you know, Doc, even on Facebook you even mention vaccine and you get flagged. It's really challenging right now what they're doing. 01:36:12.000 --> 01:36:19.000 I don't know if you saw, but Rand Paul put a whole video just about "don't comply," you know, that kind of thing. Don't comply. 01:36:19.000 --> 01:36:26.000 And they brought down his YouTube video. They just, from YouTube, took it down. 01:36:26.000 --> 01:36:33.000 So, you know, we do what we can, sir. 01:36:33.000 --> 01:36:38.000 I think it probably is making headway. 01:36:38.000 --> 01:36:50.000 Yeah, well, we're doing what we can. Thanks for asking. You take care of yourself and we'll see you in mid-September. Wow, it'll be fall. Thank you so much. 01:36:50.000 --> 01:36:52.000 Okay, thank you. Bye. 01:36:52.000 --> 01:37:03.000 Dr. Ray Peat. RayPeat.com. His newsletter is RayPeatsnewsletter@gmail.com. 01:37:03.000 --> 01:37:11.000 RayPeatsnewsletter@gmail.com. What a sweet man, huh? 01:37:11.000 --> 01:37:22.000 Well, I've been drinking my grass-fed organic milk at the HEB here in Dripping Springs. 01:37:22.000 --> 01:37:29.000 So I've been drinking that. That's kind of fun. And lots of orange juice. I don't know if you've ever really did the orange juice thing. 01:37:29.000 --> 01:37:35.000 There's something pretty magical about that. But we can get organic oranges now. You know, you squoze them up. 01:37:35.000 --> 01:37:44.000 So that's kind of fun. And if you haven't tried orange juice, I mean, I went most of my life thinking that orange juice had too much sugar. 01:37:44.000 --> 01:37:49.000 But I sure don't feel that like that now. So it's kind of fun. 01:37:49.000 --> 01:37:55.000 Okay, kids, well, we're going to have a little time off here and I will see you tomorrow. 01:37:55.000 --> 01:38:07.000 We have Jet Blake. He's a philosopher, raconteur, quantum physics guy. Fascinating stuff. Jet Blake will be here tomorrow. 01:38:07.000 --> 01:38:15.000 And then David Sirita. David Sirita is a really unique soul. We all are. 01:38:15.000 --> 01:38:22.000 But he's a unique soul that is into all kinds of wild things and all kinds of stuff that I think you're going to like. 01:38:22.000 --> 01:38:30.000 As far as vibrations and sounds and light. And then on Wednesday, Charlie Sewell is going to be here. 01:38:30.000 --> 01:38:41.000 And Charlie has done quite a bit of research in the field of the lawfulness of people telling you what to do. 01:38:41.000 --> 01:38:47.000 Injections, basking and all this stuff. And he's going to have some real solutions for you. 01:38:47.000 --> 01:38:52.000 All we think that you can file and/or give to people. 01:38:52.000 --> 01:38:56.000 And so we're going to cover that on Wednesday. 01:38:56.000 --> 01:39:00.000 So thank you for your ongoing support. We have some great people. 01:39:00.000 --> 01:39:06.000 If you have it in your budget to buy some things that are to help you, go on our website. 01:39:06.000 --> 01:39:11.000 Look at all of the people that we know and promote and have for years. 01:39:11.000 --> 01:39:16.000 And we think that you're going to find some good things there. 01:39:16.000 --> 01:39:20.000 Because we know all of these people and we use it. 01:39:20.000 --> 01:39:26.000 So it's good to know the people that you're spending your money with. 01:39:26.000 --> 01:39:29.000 Okay. I love you all very much. Thank you. 01:39:29.000 --> 01:39:33.000 We'll see you in the morning with Jet Blake at 10 o'clock Central Time. 01:39:33.000 --> 01:39:35.000 Let me know if I can help with anything. 01:39:35.000 --> 01:39:38.000 Patrick@OneRadioNetwork.com 01:39:38.000 --> 01:39:41.000 Thank you. May the blessings be. 01:39:41.000 --> 01:39:44.000 You're doing good. Crazy, but you're doing good. 01:39:44.000 --> 01:39:56.000 Broadcasting from the beautiful hill country in Texas, this is Juan, RadioNetwork.com 01:39:56.000 --> 01:39:59.000 One Radio Network, Texas. 01:39:59.000 --> 01:40:01.160 [MUSIC PLAYING]
