It's titled "Relentless - How A Mother And Daughter Defied The Odds"</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Visit: https://relentlessbook.lisatamati.com/ for more Information</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When extreme endurance athlete, Lisa Tamati, was confronted with the hardest challenge of her life, she fought with everything she had. Her beloved mother, Isobel, had suffered a huge aneurysm and stroke and was left with massive brain damage; she was like a baby in a woman's body. The prognosis was dire. There was very little hope that she would ever have any quality of life again. But Lisa is a fighter and stubborn.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She absolutely refused to accept the words of the medical fraternity and instead decided that she was going to get her mother back or die trying.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This book tells of the horrors, despair, hope, love, and incredible experiences and insights of that journey. It shares the difficulties of going against a medical system that has major problems and limitations. Amongst the darkest times were moments of great laughter and joy.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Relentless will not only take the reader on a journey from despair to hope and joy, but it also provides information on the treatments used, expert advice and key principles to overcoming obstacles and winning in all of life's challenges. It will inspire and guide anyone who wants to achieve their goals in life, overcome massive obstacles or limiting beliefs. It's for those who are facing terrible odds, for those who can't see light at the end of the tunnel. It's about courage, self-belief, and mental toughness. And it's also about vulnerability... it's real, raw, and genuine.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This is not just a story about the love and dedication between a mother and a daughter. It is about beating the odds, never giving up hope, doing whatever it takes, and what it means to go 'all in'. Isobel's miraculous recovery is a true tale of what can be accomplished when love is the motivating factor and when being relentless is the only option.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Here's What NY Times Best Selling author and Nobel Prize Winner Author says of The Book:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">"There is nothing more powerful than overcoming physical illness when doctors don't have answers and the odds are stacked against you. This is a fiercely inspiring journey of a mother and daughter that never give up. It's a powerful example for all of us."</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">—Dr. Bill Andrews, Nobel Prize Winner, author of Curing Aging and Telomere Lengthening.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">"A hero is someone that refuses to let anything stand in her way, and Lisa Tamati is such an individual. Faced with the insurmountable challenge of bringing her ailing mother back to health, Lisa harnessed a deeper strength to overcome impossible odds. Her story is gritty, genuine and raw, but ultimately uplifting and endearing. If you want to harness the power of hope and conviction to overcome the obstacles in your life, Lisa's inspiring story will show you the path."</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">—Dean Karnazes, New York Times best selling author and Extreme Endurance Athlete.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Transcript of the Podcast:</strong></span></p> </div> <div>Speaker 1: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1.22">00:01</a>)<br /> Welcome to pushing the limits, the show that helps you reach your full potential with your host, Lisa Tamati, brought to you by lisatamati.com<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=12.5">00:12</a>)<br /> Welcome back to pushing the limits this week.

You're a legend in this country already. So for those who don't know, BenI know when you, you know, you would have missed that. But Ben as the founder and owner of Be Pure, which is a, what is it? It's actually been explained what Be Pure is because it's not just some,<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=112.7">01:52</a>)<br /> What is it? No. So true. Yeah, it is. We're, we're, we're basically an education company and so essentially we're an education company that educates people well around diet and lifestyle factors to improve people's quality of lives. People's help people on their health journeys. That looks in a variety of different ways. We have, we do have nutritional supplements, we have educational resources to help people eat better, to live healthier. We have a laboratory that does very advanced hormone testing. So there's a number of why is that we come in to try and ah, yeah, help people on their health journey really. Because, you know, we're all on this journey trying to be, be healthiness and enjoy life as much as we can. And yeah, the, the company is really a platform to help people do that more.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=164.79">02:44</a>)<br /> Yeah, absolutely. And I'm fascinated to watch your journey, you know, like as a, as a company Be Pure as is being a role model for our company and learning from you guys and what you're doing and how you're doing it. It's been quite fascinating. And you know, you've been kind enough to share tips over the years. And one of the big tips that I have to tell people and also saying executive vain. He was the first one that put me onto hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which of course was absolutely key in my mom's rehabilitation. And his, his, you know, I ended up being then have now solve the clinic, but it's, it's European available might be more, well now in the, in the, you know, area for Brighton rehab and for many other areas as well. So that was a huge step that been just, you know, off the cuff, taught me one day when we were talking about mum and has her situations, I think that was really key. You're welcome, you're welcome. And it's so, so otherwise they say you're so inspiring in whatever you're doing and, and you know, where'd your mom and tell her story and her recovery. That's just kind of what we expect from you now.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=237.48">03:57</a>)<br /> You know, the sorts of research and things that goes into any health journey. And it's never just a, you know, like I think one of the providing mentality unfortunately with a lot of people is that we go to the doctor, we get a single pill and we take the pill and we're all good. And you and I know that, okay, health is really a motive faceted thing that we need to be always tweaking and learning and developing in being open minded as to how to improve. And we, our knowledge is of course in, you're at the cutting edge of, of research and so on. And always learning the next thing, and this is, this is what leads to being along team health I think is having that attitude, that open-minded attitude to, you know, looking at what the latest research is saying and building the blocks that are required from the exercise to the sleep, to the meditation, to the supplements, to the photos. You know, all of these aspects play a huge role, don't they?<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=296.18">04:56</a>)<br /> Absolutely. Yeah. I couldn't agree more or less, or if it is, you know, for all of us, we were on this journey, on the shot's journey and, and life throws, throws things at you, you know, you suppose curve balls at you and then you have to be able to pivot and respond to those. You know, just as we're recording this right now, we'll see during the COBIT 19, knocked down in New Zealand. And so a guy in a whole different set of challenges around health. Right now I'm from social isolation through to boredom, eating, emotional eating you know, something, you know, [inaudible] but having to deal with a lot of different things. And so, you know, life changes and but, but it's certainly the more you can do those fundamentals really well, like you mentioned those lifestyle factors, we know that you, you know, you're going to weather it better.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=344.59">05:44</a>)<br /> Exactly. Exactly. Instead today they are wanting to talk with you some of the key learnings that you have around, you know, because we are in this coronavirus, time building immunity and voting our bodies up to be strong so that they can cope with, with virus and things that come at us. In delving deeper into, you know, some of the areas that you've been working in and also some of the nutrients that we really need to think about being edited into our, into our diet, whether that's through supplements or whether that's through food. So what would be your top tips for boosting immunity? Okay.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=385.44">06:25</a>)<br /> Yeah, I think, you know, when we start looking at diet and lifestyle factors for immunity, Mmm. There's probably sort of three or four key areas, but we can improve our foods. What are we eating, our nutrient levels and then lifestyle factors and, and, and I mean the full one, which kind of comes in under, under the food's weightings, also our gut. Yeah. So let, let's, let's start at the started the, the food aspect first. And so ideally we want to be eating, you know, this foods we want to be adding [inaudible] there are going to be benefiting to try immune systems. So these are, these are going to be a whole foods nutrient dense foods, so lots of vegetables, high quality fats and proteins. And so there's a number of factors, you know, the fats and proteins are the [inaudible] tools to build immune molecules.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=434.97">07:14</a>)<br /> [Inaudible] [inaudible], Bye diet or you know, light. So by seeding a lot of plants, vegetables, that's going to have a ride the best environment for the, for the beneficial bacteria and the microbiome, which is [inaudible] the first line of defense really for an immune system. And then you know, from from from a whole food aspect. There's also things we want to be then eliminating. So you ideally trying to minimize sugar as much as possible because sugar feeds the unfriendly bacteria, which then impacts our immune system. And then really trying to minimize also, Mmm, sure. I, I'm not a big fan of gluten containing foods for a lot of people. They really struggle with glutinous protein, your immune system's responding to gluten as a protein. And so minimizing gluten as a protein. So the first step would be that the whole food step. Mmm. Yeah. And then so I go on to talk about nutrients.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=487.37">08:07</a>)<br /> Yeah. Well, so this was just a sick that, you know, when you say like gluten's not good. I mean, I mean, I'm of the opinion that gluten is probably bad for all of us, which is a really hard pill to swallow because I like Brandon, I'll be honest, I really struggled with the braid one. It is, it isn't good for any of us as a, it's not just people who are good you know gluten intolerance or celiac disease people. But it, it, what does it actually do? Why is it such a insidious, isn't it? Is that one of the LinkedIn's, you know, is it one of the, in the LinkedIn family?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=522.73">08:42</a>)<br /> Yeah. Well, there's, yeah, there's a number of factors to it and you actually, rightly so, the research does show that the, the gluten has been shown to be inflammatory for everybody. So in this study they took people who are celiacs, who we know have a strong immune response to gluten and non-celiac, and they found that it didn't matter whether they were celiac or not, whenever they gluten increased inflammation. So we know that it is inflammatory for everybody according to the research. And so why is it so inflammatory? Well, I guess there's a number of reasons, but let me see if I can sort of put this together succinctly. On a basic level, the red wording now is nothing like the bread that your grandmother was eating. So you know, if we go back, okay. Over the last 50 years, the hybridization of grains has, has, has meant that the gluten content has increased.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=570.15">09:30</a>)<br /> It's meant the unbeknowing to the, you know, actually Norman BOLO, who, who, who did a lot of the hybridization got a Nobel prize for it. [inaudible] Did concentrate the lectin levels. So they are higher, much higher levels of blood jeans in modern wheat varieties. Now, lectins are a molecule plants make to stop insects from eating them. And so it looks like in increasing the lectin levels in weight, modern weight they, they, they basically made it so the insects can't hate it, but it looks like humans can't tolerate it either now. And so definitely the lectin component of it is [inaudible] [inaudible]. Also a contributing factor together with in the modern world we seem to have, Mmm. A lot of leaky gut issues and this is where the junctures in your gap start getting loose and the food particles we're eating start getting into the immune, into the bloodstream where we get an elevated immune response. And so we don't know, maybe it's the sugar, maybe it's the lifestyle, maybe it's nutrient proficiency. So we don't know exactly what's driving this perfect storm of gut leakiness. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that seems to be coupled with this increased intolerance, the bread and gluten.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=635.26">10:35</a>)<br /> Right. And that's a really good one. Let's, let's talk a little bit about what happens when you get the leaky gut syndrome. So the particles are passing through, partly on digested in, in toxins and chemicals and things that are you. You're inadvertently ingesting when you, when you have food [inaudible] unchecked into the blood system and dissolving into the blood. So that's causing systemic inflammation and toxicity in the NSLS. Is that, is it half works?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=664.9">11:04</a>)<br /> [Inaudible] Yeah, exactly. So 70 to 80% of our immune system is centered around the are associated with [inaudible] lymphoid tissue, which is in our gut. And the reason being that the easiest way to get a pathogen into your body is to eat it. And so this is the new primary interface between the outside world and now our inside world and our bodies. And so when these junctures start getting loose, we start, like you say, start getting from particles. Mmm. And toxins from the foods we're eating. [inaudible] Big and molecules start getting into the bloodstream that shouldn't be there. And now our immune system then recognize these things, proteins. And, and when we look at you know, I'm interested in, it's constantly looking at the foods we're eating, particularly the proteins going, is this protein food or is this protein a virus or backup Syria because viruses and bacteria that just pertains to, so if basically looks at the proteins and if you got a big in there that shouldn't be there, the immune system goes tags it as, as non-self tags as an invader. And we build specific and new molecules to that.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=722.83">12:02</a>)<br /> And then<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=723.76">12:03</a>)<br /> Our immune system talks systemically throughout their whole body. And so if you start getting an elevated immune system in your gut so for example, the macrophages which are a big immune molecule, they will talk to the other macrophages in your body and say, Hey, we're getting attacked,<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=737.95">12:17</a>)<br /> Regulate, start looking for anything that looks like.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=740.54">12:20</a>)<br /> And so we start thinking, getting increased inflammation throughout our whole body, our immune system more than even start taking proteins that are,<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=749.32">12:29</a>)<br /> Oh,<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=750.83">12:30</a>)<br /> Not us. And we start attacking proteins that are us. And I mean that, that can be in the joints as in the case of rheumatoid arthritis. Often it can be in the thyroid, in the case of autoimmune Arthur autoimmune, Hashimoto's and these kinds of conditions. So it then has a, yeah. A systemic effect for our whole body.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=769.2">12:49</a>)<br /> Wow. So, so a lot of the auto immune diseases which are rifle in their world, you know, like Hashimoto's and thyroid, a classic examples of the body just attacking itself and killing your own tyroid at the end of the day because it's [inaudible]. And even with this coronavirus from what I understand, it's interleukin six is what they've identified as being the, they problematic. Is it cytokine that is Mmm. Yeah. Closing this huge immune response in this or the body overreacts in seats. So many songs just to fight it that it actually starts shooting everything for, you know, as an analogy it starts killing off the good end. The bed. Yeah. Over-reactive immune system. So when we, when we're talking about inflammation, cause most people still are saying inflammation is like when I cut my leg, it goes a bit red and sore and that's inflammation or they get a sore knee when they've tweaked it or something and that, but this is, this is information that is right, the body because it's in the blood system and it's popping out in different areas.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=831.79">13:51</a>)<br /> So one of the like I've got a brother who's got some very bad Becker shoes and I'm, you know, very much convinced in the work that I've been doing with him that it's a systemic inflammation problem as much as it is a disc problem. And that's a bit of a leap [inaudible] people to make because they think, no, I've got a sore back, I've got a disc problem or I've got a new problem. And they don't actually equate it to actually know the, the, the body's immune system is in overdrive, the inflammation is going, you know, and we need to, we need to address that as well as perhaps looking at if there's a physical injury. But it's actually, you know, looking at that whole, the whole body looking at the gut health. Okay.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=876.63">14:36</a>)<br /> Absolutely. It's, it's, it's the whole environment. The immune system is talking to the immune system throughout the whole body and, and so the more that we can kind of create environment that that is calming down the immune system, the more that we can have the a wonderful point you raised up around the, you know, the coronavirus instances, the cytokine storm with where the immune system gets out of control and that's actually then becomes dangerous in of itself is we want to well controlled immune system. And this is actually where nutrients like vitamin D comes in [inaudible] controls and modulates your immune response. And so if if we looked at your immune system like a we want your immune system to be like a really good heading dog. And so we want you like, so if you've got a dog in with the sheet you don't want Labradors in the shade because it's just going to cause a whole bunch of collateral damage.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=925.45">15:25</a>)<br /> That collateral damage being inflammation. What we want is a really good heading. Dog knows exactly when to go in and exactly when to stay sitting here and not just the shape. And so Benjamin Day is like the shepherd with the whistle, the controls, the immune system. It controls when the dog goes in and out. And so having adequate vitamin D, and this is one of the reasons why adequate vitamin D is so important for our immune system is cause they actually modulate some controls. This immune response as do Omega three fatty acids, Omega three fatty acids as found in fish oils and only fish salmon. They, they, they make specific molecules that can help turn off that interleukin six inflammatory marker. And so they modulate and control the immune response<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=966.17">16:06</a>)<br /> That is, that is quite fascinating. Vitamin D is not just, they, they're actually pulling out a whole mine of [inaudible] now that it has, because there's so many influences throughout the body and vitamin D also in relation to calcium. So I'm taking it with keto and vitamin a is a good combination help you.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=987.37">16:27</a>)<br /> Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah. They used the nutrients. They, Oh, they, Oh they work together. And depending on which biochemical pathway, they have different cofactors for of the bone. A bit of a D controls you uptake of calcium and vitamin K two controls the deposition of calcium as where you're putting the calcium in your body. Cause we want to put the calcium in the bones. We don't want to put it in the soft tissue like Andres because that's associated with increased Heartland speeds. And so borons also required with bone factor. And so yeah, when you start looking at M D for immunity, it's coupled then with C, it's a couple of grips saying it's a couple who are a bit of an eye. So you did it. It's like a it's like a symphony and orchestra and different parts of the orchestra need to be playing at different times for, to create this harmony of, of human health.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1035.33">17:15</a>)<br /> So that's a beautiful way of putting it. I'm in the middle at the moment and you know, I'm certainly no expert in this area, but I've been studying functional genomics inside of looking at different DNA specific DNA genes and the different pathways at nighttime. And yeah, it's been fascinating. Absolutely fascinating. And one of the interesting ones was the vitamin D. Jane the name escapes me right now. Yeah. Can't remember what now, which switch. Yeah. Something like that. And what was interesting was that if you have the poorer conversion of vitamin D so that you, if you, for example, come from it's necessities that are closer to the equation or where there was a lot of sunshine in your ancestry, then you have often lower level of serum vitamin D in the body. And it can't be carried in by the transporter either very well.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1095.45">18:15</a>)<br /> And so you need to have extra vitamin D, especially if, say somebody who's come from one of the hotter climbs and sisterly, and then you're living in a colder climate with this list, you know, sunlight and so on. So that was a really interesting Simon vitamin say was all side is there's a Jane that regulates the amount of vitamin C that's going around in the body. In some people who have the wrong variation, can not be able to process or not carry the vitamin C as efficiently as others. So again, I need an increased amount of vitamin Sansar. It's this really fascinating area science when you start looking at, Oh, so that's why somebody might react better to, to supplementation then, then somebody over here. And, and going into all of those, those, the specific Jane's, it's just been absolutely mind blowing.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1148.91">19:08</a>)<br /> And I, I wish I had it off the top of my, my, my, well I hated the moment when I die, but it's just like I'll be studying under dr Mansell Mohammed who I hit on the show rates and a couple of times in the last couple of weeks. And it's, I'm really, really important to know, like to understand your Jane's, to get Jane profiling done. Cause then you can actually gauge which way your, you know, your hormones are going. I mean, I know that you do hormone testing when we're getting a bit off topic, but so you're looking at the pathways and so on that, you know, with the if you've got, so what are you home on T stone actually been, can you explain them a little bit?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1188.49">19:48</a>)<br /> Yeah. So that, yeah, that's a great point. And so I completely agree with all that Lisa. Like, like the the future of Oh, nutrition is in personalized nutrition. And so I've always been a big believer that it's about finding what's right for you and, and absolutely on a, on a nutrient level. And just, just on that, on Benjamin Day, just to, so the highlight to your listeners, you know,<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1210.34">20:10</a>)<br /> Mmm.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1210.57">20:10</a>)<br /> 84% of new Zealanders in one study, 84% of new Zealanders are tested low in vitamin D and that's 18 animals. So, you know, we, we've got massive Bitterman deficiencies and, you know, obviously we're using sunscreen, we're not getting out of the sun as much, et cetera. So yeah, there's, there's a lot of, lot of different issues there. So when you start looking at the hormone testing. So let's jump back to the hormones. Yeah. So we were using urine metabolites. So with you in metabolites, you really pretty much get to see the whole hormone cascade. Whereas if you go get a blood testing the hormones you just go into yeah. Get one form of estrogen usually eat too. [inaudible] We'll do progesterone, but they're not gonna<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1247.04">20:47</a>)<br /> Necessarily see your types of gesture. And how is that guiding and, and also the timing of your progesterone is very important cause your progesterone is only going to really peak around day 19 to 22 of your cycles. So you need me to be getting the timing of that blood test. Exactly right. So what, without testing, we've got and incredibly advanced in the bar too. Actually one of the most advanced machinery in the world, liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry, where we are taking the urine and looking at it, how your body's breaking down these hormones so that we can then see how many hormones you have. And we can see the whole humor, new cascades. So you can not only see whether people, you know, the estrogen, but, but how is your body breaking down that estrogen? Because some forms of best, Jerome as it breaks down, are actually fairly toxic. One form is [inaudible]. It's actually the most researched molecule for breast cancer.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1296.03">21:36</a>)<br /> Yes.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1297.581">21:37</a>)<br /> So you, you're starting to see the whole cascade of what's going on. And, and yeah, obviously that's really useful for women who you know, having menstrual pain, menstrual difficulties, fertility issues, PMs, symptomology, endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, really useful for them to see what's actually going on and to help them and to help normalize their cycle.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1319.99">21:59</a>)<br /> Yeah, it's really fascinating because this is an area that I've focused in on too with the Jane tasting. So looking at the, you know, the 1781 and the SRD five 82 and the sip 1981. And whether it's going into the two hydroxy or the four hydroxy pathways or you got it. Yeah. It's, yeah, we need to know this before we put a woman on the pill or what we put before we put a woman on board. I didn't go home therapy. These things need to be checked because we're, you know, we're, what, what might be perfectly fine for one woman can be a complete disaster and lead to cancer for another person. And so having this sort of testing available and understanding what pathway your body is, you know, because the four hydroxy estrogen, what you talked about there as being very inflammatory and the Quinones and the [inaudible] that are produced from the Fremont doxy and then if you have a slow comped Jane, so you can't get rid of it very well.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1376.68">22:56</a>)<br /> We CLO. Yeah. It's a very complex matter that needs to be and we need to dissect this before we go and give somebody you know, certainly the contraceptive pill or the hormone replacement therapy. We need to understand those factors before we go and do that. I think it's quite shocking to me that is a, is a young woman is most young woman, you know I was put on the pill and all of the the downstream problems that that has caused for me in my body a thing quite horrific, you know, whereas for another person, that might've been fine. So I th that's an area that I think, you know, having the case done and understanding your personal pathway and your body's at right now and how old you are and with your producing is stroller or still extra dial or you know, all these things have a risk factor for the cancer situation.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1435.82">23:55</a>)<br /> So it's really exciting that you've got that testing here now and there's, it's available for people to be able to understand their own gene pathways. There was a taste recently done the, the name of the scientist, it Skypes me, but they absolutely, it was out of Harvard. Absolutely. Conclusively have now discovered that the pill causes leaky gut syndrome, that, that it increases the permeability of the gut lining. [inaudible] [inaudible] With absolute certainty. So this is something that we need to be aware of because as we've spoke about before, the inflammation that that's going to be causing in a young woman's body. Is it scary, you know, and if you're on the pill for 20 years or 30 years, like I was you can imagine the downstream problems of that. Have you heard about that study at all?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1491.5">24:51</a>)<br /> Ah, I haven't been, it doesn't surprise me that, you know, a number of medications have been shown to increase leaky gut and gut permeability. We know that, you know, a lot of research around the nutrient deficiencies, the being on the concept of pill drive. And so, you know, ideally it should be given with a high quality motivated man prescribed with a high quality motivated to mitigate the, the, a lot of those side effects. So. Mmm. Yeah. [inaudible] it's a different, a difficult question. I said in a day you work with be empowered around controlling whether they have a pregnancy or not, but you know, at the moment the side effects of, okay, or the pill for some women,<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1531.54">25:31</a>)<br /> Quite severe. And, I mean, this is not to say that the pill is not correct in the, in certain circumstances, but it's informed consent that we want, we want, we want to know what it is, the possibilities instead of just blindly going in and, and having and being on this without a breath he is and not knowing that there are consequences to, because you're basically shutting down a whole system in the body and that is going to have less of consequences, you know? Mmm. But we've gotten way off topic cause we were on absolutely. It's over licensed. But I find that I love to sit down and talk hours with you. That'll be sort of things. So what are some of the other things that we can do to build our immunity? So we looked at vitamin D, we've looked at our gut health. So probiotics, probiotics are very important as prebiotics. What is the difference between,<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1586.53">26:26</a>)<br /> Yeah, so probiotics are the beneficial bacteria or the bacteria that have been shown to have a, a known benefit to human health. Okay. So there's obviously a lot of, a lot of now Australians and species that have been researched for all sorts of different benefits of human health, whether that's reducing inflammation, increasing mental, improving digestive health. And so yeah, probiotics are the actual bacteria. And then prebiotics are the foods that feed the back Syria. And so prebiotics, you know, really think [inaudible] think vegetables here. But but you know, the, the, the real standout performer is going to be garlic, onion lakes, the beans and legumes. And so they've got a lot of very complex pumped sugars. [inaudible] The way, don't break down, but the bacteria alive. And so we want to be feeding, you know, it's not only about having the right species and strains and diversity within the microbiome and the gut, but it's also about feeding them, feeding them. So like try.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1643.61">27:23</a>)<br /> Wow. So when you're taking a probiotic, you're trying to put good, big bacteria into your gut and when you're eating the prebiotic, so, you know, prebiotic, fiber and vegetables and you're also supplements now available.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1656.52">27:36</a>)<br /> No<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1657.21">27:37</a>)<br /> That's actually giving them the right food to be able to, to thrive. And, and, and get stronger. Mmm. [inaudible]<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1664.89">27:44</a>)<br /> Absolutely. Yeah. So it's a combination of those two.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1668.31">27:48</a>)<br /> Yeah. You've got a probiotic.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1670.02">27:50</a>)<br /> Yeah, we have. Yeah. Yeah. We've got a probiotic gut renew. It's an incredible probiotics, 18 strains, you know, researched and then they strange for, for human health 30 billion viable bacteria, very, very strong. It's an enteric coated actual, so that delivers the, delivers the bacteria, so through to the large intestine where we want it. And so we, yeah, we get a lot of very, very good results with that.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1697.5">28:17</a>)<br /> That sounds excellent. Okay. So that's probiotics, vitamin D, what else is on the list for immune building supplements and foods?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1707.5">28:27</a>)<br /> Yeah, let's talk about vitamin C. Obviously a bit of is required to build immune molecules. We don't make vitamin C anymore as, as a mammo. And it's interesting when you look at the genes around that most likely we don't make it cause we didn't need to make it cause we were eating so many fresh vegetables and fruits that we were getting adequate vitamin C that our body was like, you know what, there's a pathway here. We don't use it anymore because we're getting so much. So that's most likely turned off over the millennia. And so, but in the modern world, we're not getting enough vitamin C, again, a study out of a target of new Zealanders showed that a lot of new Zealanders were deficient in vitamin C, which is surprising because you know, you sort of think, are we not eating fruits and vegetables?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1751.02">29:11</a>)<br /> Yes, but we are, but we're not eating necessarily fresh fruits and vegetables. So Mmm. Benjamin CB grades quite quickly. So the older the fruit based with the less Bitterman Cedar isn't it? And so, you know, a lot of the fruits and vegetables you're eating, unless you're growing them yourself aren't necessarily as fresh as I could be. And therefore I see content is actually as high as it could be either. So supplementing with vitamin C, very, very important on a daily level for sure. The skin, the hair for sleep. Mmm. The mood. Very, very important. Specifically under, under times of immune stress, we need more vitamin C because vitamin C is required to build immune molecules. And so so we have a product called [inaudible] [inaudible], which is very strong. I'm sorry, Scott. 1500 milligrams for half a teaspoon. And then, and then another aspect around vitamin C is the bioflavonoids. I recycle the electron vitamin C. Do you really want a two to one ratio of bioflavonoids and you've determined C because then you're getting kind of like double the vitamin C once it gets in your body. The activity levels.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1811.53">30:11</a>)<br /> Mmm.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1811.92">30:11</a>)<br /> And so permanency requirements. Yeah,<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1816.07">30:16</a>)<br /> It's a, it's a bioflavonoids net. Like a transporter of the vitamin C in the body or how does that work?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1823.44">30:23</a>)<br /> Yeah, it's actually an electron donor. So it's like a, so you have a, a cascade of like, so they give their electrons or being an antioxidant means it can give, it's electron away, a spare electron. And so what it does is when vitamin C gives its electron to a for sell to stop it from being oxidized that vitamin C has lost its electron and it can't give it to anyone else, but the bioflavonoid can give its electron to the vitamin C and kind of recycle it. And so the, and so there's a whole, so when you ate a [inaudible], when you eat a deep fried, when you eat deep fried tired of shit for example vitamin a will give its electron to stabilize that fatty molecule. So then, and it's a bit of money is a very nice antioxidant for fats and in Bermondsey will give its an electron to beta mundane and bioflavonoids. We'll give it to the next one. So a bit of SI. And then your body makes a molecule who glutathione, which is a base antioxidant to give its electron to the bioflavonoids. So you have this kind of cascade of recycling of protection throughout your whole body. And, and so and so, you know, this is just one, one reason why a bit of, and CS, okay. Kind of off subject, but it's part of it. Part of this cascade.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1889.31">31:29</a>)<br /> Yeah. No, very fascinating. This whole block chemical processes fascinate me as like how one donates to the other and gives it to the other elements changed into that. And that's all part of this thing that we, this is why we slow, intricate out, outweigh. We are such in one way was super robust. On the other hand, we're extremely complicated and you get one little thing roles and you start to get problems down the track. Vitamin C and collagen production or [inaudible]. So collagen is needs vitamin C two to be sense of size. Is that the right way of putting it?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1923.96">32:03</a>)<br /> Yes. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So sort of like, so a lot of these Bitcoins and minerals are the enzyme catalysts. So yeah. So they're actually for enzymes to work, which are like the catalyst to make things happen. They need these mineral mineral cofactors for, for the way I look at it is like, you know, you got a factory [inaudible] know if we looked at the immune system, you've got to factor in your body that builds immune molecule. So at the end of the factory line, yeah. I mean, molecules can go out there and fight. Yeah. You have the raw materials coming into the factory. You've had some proteins and then you have all the stages production, which involved different Benjamins and minerals. And so if you're deficient in one of those vitamins and minerals, it holds up the whole production line so that you can no longer produce as many immune molecules.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=1970.74">32:50</a>)<br /> And so, and so these are these enzyme catalyst cofactors. And so, yeah, Bitterman sees, you know, many, many functions throughout our body as in as easy as is and think it's gonna of a days. And so, Mmm. Yeah. The ability to turnover [inaudible] and build more collagen is, is that right? Limited [inaudible] deficiency. Wow. And the college, it is so important for our skin, obviously I hear and I always, but also for our gut lining, building the gut lining, our joints, we've got a lot of pain. Having good levels of vitamin sane can help with the pain levels. It, it's, it's, it's, yeah. Okay. So, so really is it really and, and you know, yeah. [inaudible] Hmm. Carry on baby. [inaudible] No, that's, I'm, I'm good.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2025.73">33:45</a>)<br /> That's a lemon recording guys. As we've got to, we're going to like a, one second delay. And it's causing been an honor to talk over each other. We're not normally so rode down with me.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2036.88">33:56</a>)<br /> Okay. So now,<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2038.7">33:58</a>)<br /> Well we've gone through, okay. Vitamin, vitamin C, probiotics, prebiotics as zinc. You've mentioned. What does zinc do in the body?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2049.04">34:09</a>)<br /> Yes. Okay. Zane controls over 200 enzymes in your body. Really important for wound healing. Really important for the gut integrity. Very, very important for energy production. Very important for the immune system to build immune molecules. Really important for melatonin. Sleepy time. Oh my own production. Serotonin feel good. Yeah, the happy neurotransmitter. And so you know, zinc is, zinc is really high. Zinc foods can be [inaudible] oysters. W yeah. [inaudible]. Hi, zinc. [inaudible] Egg yolk. Milk. Okay. Pumpkin seeds. Seeds. We generally, when you look at zinc, you think we're getting enough, but many, many, many people are low in zinc. And, and so I'm a [inaudible] big fan of [inaudible] getting the same adequacy.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2094.03">34:54</a>)<br /> Yeah. I think most new Zealanders I'm from. I remember being in one of your talks years ago and you're saying<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2100.31">35:00</a>)<br /> You gave us all some zinc and whether we tasted it or not and yeah. [inaudible] Then it was a huge problem that we have a deficit in, in, in zinc, in New Zealand especially. Along with selenium. I think the other major one let's just talk on mega threes. Like a mega threes are crucially important. I know for brain health it's been something that's been important for mum and her recovery is Omega threes. What else do I make us priests do in the money? Yeah, like I mentioned earlier, well threes, I liked the, the substrate [inaudible] you're really important to the brain. So the brain is 80% fat. Particularly these foams of Omega three are really important. Excuse me just a moment. I'm just going to talk to my daughter. I understand. A cool mate. Okay. She was just cooling the dog. So we're obviously in lockdown.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2158.79">35:58</a>)<br /> So this is make a three [inaudible]. Absolutely. No, it's pretty special. And so the make it raise help build specific, the immune system helps build resolving molecules to help turn off your immune response. Okay. So this is, you know, really one of the important things is we want our immune system to be really tightly controlled and have having a bigger three is this is why Omega threes are so beneficial for heart disease is because make the Omega threes turn off inflammation and essentially heart disease is an inflammatory disease. So, you know, 19, late 1990 stupid group of German scientists showed its implemation that causes heart disease. And so yeah, this is what you're saying. If we can have adequate mega threes to ensure that we have the ability turn off the immune response when our body [inaudible] safe to do that. Yeah, very, very important for that.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2213.4">36:53</a>)<br /> Very, very important. Okay, so Amiga three, lower inflammation all throughout the body. So with heart disease, you know, again, I'm going back to the genes. There's a couple of genes that are responsible for how much cholesterol was laid down, how much cholesterol was picked up again, and recycle and police row. [inaudible] Absolutely no itself, not the big bad Wolf and the roam, like we used to think cholesterol was bad, but cholesterol was actually the is bomb for an inflammatory response, but it's the inflammation that's causing us to put the, the cholesterol down that we actually want to actually want to get to. And this is where they are making threes. I'm going to help calm that hole. All the blood missiles in the, yeah. [inaudible] Integrity, Palacio cells can be very, very beneficial. Okay. So then you've got a really great Omega three.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2271.17">37:51</a>)<br /> Now some of the ones on the market and not so great. Can you explain why people should not go cheap when it comes to fish oil? Okay. Yeah, there's a number of factors really. I guess the first factor is around oxidization. You want to make sure that it's not damaged or oxidized. And so, you know, a study came out in New Zealand showing that many of the, pretty sure it was word damaged, oxidized. We actually do third party testing to ensure the hours. There's an oxidized and then we a bit of an [inaudible] to protect it. We also have a, a special capsule that protects it. Mmm. The new one really wasn't the active ingredients of Omega threes. The keys is, you know, a lot of fish oils, they might sell 2000 milligrams official, but they actually only have 120, 190 milligrams of, Oh actually we do aliens, DHI and epi.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2320.75">38:40</a>)<br /> And so whereas ours has 1400 milligrams and so they actually get a clinical dose that's effective. To give you an example, you know, make threes are a very [inaudible]. Mmm. Yeah. And the research has been shown to be very beneficial treatment for the depression, but you need to be taking between 1,003 thousand milligrams of EPA [inaudible] for it to work. And so many fishers just don't have [inaudible] simply enough. And then also the concern with officials is, you know, heavy metal toxicity in the fish is also around heavy metals. So it's very important that the the, the, the officials, Mmm. You know, coming from kind of pure sources and then also have been molecularly distilled to eliminate those heads to eliminate those heavy metals.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2362.53">39:22</a>)<br /> Wow. And that's why, yeah, that's why it's very, very important that you get the right ones when it comes to Omega threes and you know, not, not the $7 ones perhaps. Okay. Well thanks for your time today. It's been really insightful. I, I just, we don't want to wrap this all up now in, in a couple of scenes that says, so why is the immune system like we stress and the immune system is very another key factor, isn't it? Why is that important that we lower acid?<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2396.88">39:56</a>)<br /> Yeah. So there's a very complex relationship between stresses and our immune system. But the, essentially what happens is when we experience chronic stress, our immune system becomes kind of fatigued and suppressed. And so and so it's really, you know, we've got to manage our stress levels so that we don't run into this immune fatigue. And, and you start heading towards a more of a compromise, the immune picture. And so this is where you're managing stress. It's, it's so vitally important. And you know, exercise can be a good stress release. And your meditation, very good. Adequate sleep, really important. And so you're all of these things. Yes. To try and manage these festivals as much as possible.<br /> <br /> Speaker 2: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2439.74">40:39</a>)<br /> [Inaudible] Sums it up really nicely. We've got to get our stress levels down in order to give your body some energy to actually do the, do the good work and having strong immunity. So I've been I just want you to tell people where they can find you, where they can find out more about your work, your blogs, your education, your compliments, of course.<br /> <br /> Speaker 3: (<a href="https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=KAgg-LCMjfkdtjKcyFURdbC2aRNi9VkhQnY-CUkvej0wr7dKk-AR6BFZ884ydqVIxTIU0OV4fOTh0F0dl3-T_EZngbc&amp;loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&amp;ts=2464.45">41:04</a>)<br /> Yeah.
