Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

06:15 – In my second book, the seven keys to tap into the wealth inside you. The first chapter is called eat your broccoli. It talks about how you cannot pour from an empty cup, if you’re not healthy, how are you going to help other people? You have to work out, you have to handle your mental hygiene, you have to do these things. Otherwise, you’re gonna be a burnout, and then you’re not good to anybody.

13:20 – So I got in trouble on the Dr. Drew show with that exact question. I am pro cannabis. He was anti cannabis. So we had a huge debate going on. Yeah, it’s interesting. To debate with him, was a whole other level.

20:35 – You have to keep in mind, it is the same thing with diabetes, it is the people that create the problem, then offer the solution to the problem. So they make money on the front end and money on the back end. So you’ve got the people pumping out Opioid’s, they get addicted to this, you get the person addicted to it, boom, here’s your solution afterwards too. You know, here’s a doughnut, let’s get you addicted to sugar, and then let’s of course give you that product to fix the ship.

31:00 – So all of a sudden it is also food and alcohol. So what happens is people get addicted. They start  off with the easily available cupcake and then it’s oh no, this weekend I got so and so’s birthday too. So then I’ll just have two cupcakes. Next thing you know, you’re eating cupcakes all of the time, and you don’t know how you got there. It’s the same thing with drugs and alcohol. It starts off in moderation. I’ll have a little and next thing you know, it’s uh oh! During the VID we produced so many alcoholics over COOFID because people were locked in their house. We went up to one in five people became addicted here in the USA.

41:40 – The success stories are why I do this. I still have clients that call me. I’ve been doing this work 27 years, and I still have clients that call me and say, hey, I’m sober 15 years, I got 20 years, you know, I’m married and I have kids, I have this amazing job, I created this company. So that’s very cool. It’s very rewarding to hear you said something or did something and sometimes it’s not even a client. It’s neat to be able to do this kind of work, and not know who you’re affecting, or how many people you’re affecting, and how well they’re actually doing with it.

45:45 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

There are people who do what they do, they take a break and go to an inpatient rehab for 30 days, and they reset, but then they come out and go right back to what they were doing at the level they were at before they reset. Inpatient treatment has 95% fail rate, you can easily look that up. So we go in and we said, let’s learn how to live in that environment that you’re functioning at, in regards to that high level, but let’s also get some work life balance. That’s what’s wrong, with regards to that theme of work, work, work. You’re going to get, 10 stickers and a couple eight balls of coke just to calm down. That’s no good for you, because that’s not calming down. That’s their idea of relaxation and then I come in, and I’m like, alright, let’s kind of fix that. Figure out what your stressors are. Lower your stressors, if we lower your stressors, you’re gonna lower your use so you’re not chomping at the bit to get away from work and the wife and the kids and the dog and then her parents and your parents and whatever else is going on.

00:30 – Introduction

10:00 – Not all FAT is created equal. The kinds of fats that are in the seeds that we’ve all been unknowingly consuming, the seed oils are those called polygon stable, they should be called polyunsaturated, and they’re unstable. So that’s why they stay liquid in the fridge, that’s why they’re softer, right? That’s why they add them because they’re unstable.

20:00 – PUFA aka Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid.

30:00 – I was a doctor and I had the symptoms of hypoglycemia myself. I would have my cereal, Raisin Bran for breakfast with my skim milk. If I was really indulgent, I’d have 2%, and added sugar, of course, had to have more sugar on that. So that would be at seven AM and then by noon or one PM, whenever I got to my lunch, my fingers were cold and I’d be shaky. I would be kind of like, oh come on, just give me my lunch already. Those symptoms, that’s hypoglycemia. So I was already on that diabetes spectrum, and I had no clue.

40:00 – At the turn of the century, 50% of Americans lived on farms. Now I would be willing to bet that would also be that of our small business world. But that was America. What made America great was the fact that we were founded on small business farmers, we were self-sufficient people, we knew how to make good food. That’s what made us great, that’s actually, by the way, a huge reason why a lot of English people left England too.

50:00 – So that’s why I have two phases in the plan that talks about the baby-steps phase for folks who are more metabolically damaged and need to spend more time with taking those baby steps. If you’re not quite so metabolically damaged, then you can jump right into a KETO diet. But the two phases are to fix your metabolism and then burn your body fat. If you have a really high-fat burn factor, you can just start right into cutting calories by intermittent fasting.

54:30 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

The thought that I want to leave people with is that food used to be this holy transcendental sensation. It wasn’t just about energy. It was about connecting with your family and your environment. It was about how good you can make something tasty and how much time you could spend in the kitchen. How much time you could spend prepping the animal’s yourselves and growing your own food.

We have completely turned that as a thing that we need to turn upside down, they talk about turning the food pyramid upside down. If we could turn our pride, our food priority upside down, and get back to where we have been for our entire humanity, human history until like the industrial era, when TV shows told us that, the kitchen was just like a place you wanted to get out of as fast as possible, you should eat microwave dinners. Before the TV told us this, we knew in our bones, that if you spent time in your garden, that food was going to be good for you. I don’t care what it is, what kind of vegetable it is, it was going to be good for you. If you raised animals yourselves, you knew that they were healthy. You knew that the food was good. Forget about saturated fat and all of this kind of stuff. That’s what matters and that’s the only thing that matters. I would love it if we could shift the conversation away from macros and calories and to things like healthy soil and healthy plants and animals.

00:30 – Introduction

10:00 – I think we all have the passion in terms of trying to say, you know, healthcare has got to be done differently. We keep having this public policy debate and all these other things. There’s some reality to that. But what we saw the real passion around was, as I mentioned earlier, flipping healthcare on its head. Instead of saying, why do we have to have people take care of people as patients, and disempower them, when what we can do is use this technology to empower people to actually self-manage their own condition. I mean, that’s what you see people wanting to do.

20:00 – So we think we are unique in that AI space. Absolutely. I won’t be as bold as saying we’re the only one because I’m sure there’s some other app out there. I’ve never heard of. Yeah, but in terms of the people that we’re talking to employers with and and the competitors are out there trying to do the same thing. We think we’re very unique and having meetup as your light AI coach.

Final Words:

As far as Diet goes, because my editor asked me, you got to have a diet I said. If it tastes good, don’t eat it. Unless you read the label, I guarantee it has sugar in it. So that is all you have to do, you don’t have to count calories, you can eat all the calories you want. Eat steak, eat as much steak as you want, because you’re going to be satiated and satisfied so quickly. You’re really not gonna be hungry anyway. So it’s a misnomer, eat a lot of sugar, you will be hungry and never satisfied. That’s number one.

It’s all about stem cells now, and my new book will be a lot about stem cells. Stem cells do not give a rat’s ass what you call your itis because they don’t speak English. Did you know that stem cells don’t speak English, French, German, or any other language other than the immune system language? That’s my message. Unlike drugs, if you do stem cells, it’ll get rid of any disease if it’s inflammatory. That’s my message, living a natural lifestyle, using natural products, which stem cells are, and whether it’s allergenic or your own, life will be good. So have a nice steak and some green vegetables and you’ll live forever,

• [spp-timestamp time=”10:00″] MS is really another manifestation of sugar on a different nerve. That nerve is the Vegas nerve. When you get tingling and numbness in your toes, in the beginning phases you may have some ocular changes in the eye, and then eventually you get loss of not only feeling in your feet but your loss of motor control. It’s the same as diabetic neuropathy, just a different nerve.
• [spp-timestamp time=”20:00″] Football players, so we want to get those guys to the 300 pounds. So we’re gonna take you okay, how the hell we gonna do it. If you eat a ketogenic diet, you’re not going to be alignment. I am a keto guy. You’re going to be very strong, you’re going to be very alert, and lean and mean, but we don’t need that. We need you 350 I can get your calories up for every pound I can get you up there. So how are we gonna do that, well we got to feed you. We got a carbohydrate load. and you got to eat multiple meals during the day. We just got to fatten you up.

• [spp-timestamp time=”50:00″] Fungus loves sugar. So if dead tissue is present, the fungus gets underneath the nail, which is a dead curtain, which is what it’s made of, and they just breathe in there. That’s a portal of entry for infection, a bacterial infection. You’ve lost sensation because of the diabetic neuropathy and you get a bacterial infection.
• [spp-timestamp time=”01:02:00″] Healthy lifestyle knowledge for doctors is not easy sometimes. I think they’ve been deceived, they really have. If we go back in history, especially the 1800s, they were just describing effects they didn’t know was from sugar. Only the rich people ate sugar because it was expensive. It was scarce then but now it’s plentiful, it’s in everything and it’s cheap. We use that as a preservative and so everybody is sick. America is fat and sick and weakened by this horrible dependency on sugar.

Meet The Low Carb Cardiologist Himself, Dr. Bret Scher MD of The Diet Doctor Podcast:

Dr Bret Scher is a board certified cardiologist in San Diego and runs the website Low Carb Cardiologist site where he has a podcast, a blog, and sees clients for individual consultations. He helps people transform their health outside the constraints of our broken healthcare system.

I hope to be the most unique Cardiologist you have ever encountered.

Sure, I am a card-carrying, board certified cardiologist. And I spent years learning the invasive procedures and the medications used to treat heart disease. Now I want to do everything in my power to make sure those multi-billion dollar tools and drugs go unused.

After receiving extra certification as a personal trainer, functional medicine practitioner, behavior modification specialist and more, I am uniquely positioned among doctors to help people transform their lives.

My goal is to inspire individuals just like you to dictate your own health by adopting healthy lifestyle habits that allow you to achieve your best health ever:

• Health free of prescription drugs.
• Health that leaves you feeling great, feeling energetic, and living the life you have always dreamed.
• Health with you in control

These beliefs sound fairly simple and should not be foreign to us. Unfortunately, in today’s healthcare system, they are completely foreign to most. That is why I encourage people to break free from the confines of our outdated and broken healthcare system.

A low carb lifestyle is the perfect example of our broken system. High quality data has shown the health benefits of low carb lifestyles for many, yet our healthcare industry refuses to accept it. That is part of my mission as The Low Carb Cardiologist. Through my book Your Best Health Ever, through my podcast The Low Carb Cardiologist Podcast, through my blog, and through all my outreaching I hope to change the narrative of our health. I hope the change the narrative of your health.

I look forward to you joining me on this journey!

We have to be able to break away from that and see things differently.
