Can vaccines trigger autoimmune conditions? Here’s what you need to know.

0:53 What is ASIA?
2:18 Side effects of vaccines
6:09 Molecular mimicry
7:49 Aluminum adjuvants
9:29 Need keto consulting?

In this video, we’re going to talk about ASIA. ASIA is an autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants. What does this mean? We’ll ASIA is essentially when a vaccine triggers an autoimmune situation.

This information comes straight from a textbook called Vaccines and Autoimmunity. This book is written using decades of experience in vaccinology, immunology, and autoimmunity.

Aluminum hydroxide is one of the adjuvants found in vaccines—in fact, it’s the only approved adjuvant in the United States. This word “adjuvant” means to help—or to make the immune response strong. Macrophages actually eat the aluminum, carry it through the lymphatic system across the blood-brain barrier, where the aluminum gets stuck.

In Vaccines and Autoimmunity, the author talks about how vaccines can cause autoimmunity in susceptible individuals. For instance, the vaccine for Lyme disease is capable of triggering arthritis in animal studies.

Many of these effects can be delayed up to 10 months or even longer.

In susceptible people, vaccines can even trigger possibly fatal autoimmune conditions.

Without being screened, children receive around 19 vaccines during infancy. This could be a huge problem when it comes to autoimmunity.

The toxicity from these types of metals accumulate over time, and the reactions are often delayed between weeks up to years.

How to lower aluminum toxicity:
1. Silica
2. Taurine
3. Vitamin E (tocotrienals)
4. Selenium
5. Acetylcarnitine

0:30 Can you have cassava on keto?
0:58 The other problem with cassava

Can you have cassava chips on keto? Cassava is very high in carbohydrates. It’s also very high on the glycemic index. Cassava is a starch—it’s a root vegetable. Cassava is also used to make tapioca. Tapioca is not keto-friendly. Another name for cassava is yuca. Cassava or yuca is not keto-friendly.

Cassava also contains very small amounts of vitamin B1 (thiamine). This is a problem because anytime you have something with a lot of carbs and low vitamin B1, you can create a vitamin B1 deficiency. This happens because it takes vitamin B1 to metabolize carbs.

The 9 Benefits of Bile Salts

November 22, 2020

Dr. Berg’s Gallbadder Formula: https://shop.drberg.com/gallbladder-formula

Check out these 9 interesting benefits of bile salts!

Timestamps
0:00 The gallbladder and bile salts
0:35 Taking bile salts
1:10 Benefits of bile salts
6:05 Causes of a bile deficiency
8:15 Back to the benefits of bile salts

The gallbladder is very important. It helps you store and concentrate bile salts. Your liver and friendly bacteria also make bile. About 95-97% of all the bile the body makes is actually recycled.

Typically, when people take bile salts as a supplement, they take them with a meal or just after they eat. Bile salts can help with bloating, belching, burping, and nausea. The primary function of bile salts that most people know of is the extraction of fat-soluble vitamins from the fat in your diet. However, there are many other benefits of purified bile salts. There are also benefits of taking them on an empty stomach.

For the benefits of bile salts below, I believe it may be best to take them on an empty stomach. I would take one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

9 potential benefits of purified bile salts:
1. Bile salts can help decrease the risk of gallstones
2. Bile salts can help you extract fat-soluble vitamins (A, E, D, and K) and omega-3 fatty acids
3. Bile salts can help with constipation
4. Bile salts can help you convert thyroid hormones
5. Bile salts can act as a VDR agonist
6. Bile salts can help decrease pain
7. Bile salts can help reduce the risk of SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth)
8. Bile salts can help reduce liver inflammation
9. Biles salts can help reduce the toxic load and help regulate excess cholesterol

Is a Niacin Flush Harmful or Dangerous?

November 21, 2020

DATA:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25855923/

Niacin has many benefits, but is a niacin flush harmful or dangerous? Here’s what you need to know.

Timestamps
0:00 Is the niacin flush dangerous?
0:12 What is a niacin flush?
0:28 What are prostaglandins?
1:10 What you need to know about niacin

Today we’re going to talk about the niacin flush and if it’s dangerous or not. The answer is no. I do not believe the niacin flush is harmful or dangerous.

With a niacin flush, you’re getting massive relaxation of the muscles inside your blood vessels (vasodilation). This occurs because niacin releases something called prostaglandins.

Prostaglandins are lipids or fat compounds that have a hormone effect. Prostaglandins increase vasodilation, help reduce blood pressure, and help blood clotting. Prostaglandins are also involved in headaches and fevers.

Niacin has been used therapeutically for over 50 years, and it is the most effective natural agent for increasing your HDL (the good cholesterol). It can also decrease LDL (the damaging LDL) and triglycerides. The keto diet and intermittent fasting may also help with a person’s cholesterol.

A person concerned about their cholesterol may need to take niacin in higher amounts (1000-2000mg per day). Keep in mind the type of niacin that is non-flushing doesn’t have cholesterol-lowering benefits. Niacin may also potentially help reduce schizophrenia.

2:45 How to help fix short-term memory loss
4:33 How to increase ketones

Today we’re going to talk about short-term memory loss. The symptom of memory loss has to do with the hippocampus.

A few things that can damage the hippocampus:
• Age
• Decreased oxygen
• Stress
• High glucose
• Vitamin B1 deficiency
• Vitamin D deficiency
• Zinc deficiency

The hippocampus is one of the only areas of the brain that can actually regenerate. But, you’re not going to be able to regenerate the hippocampus without feeding it ketones.

How to help fix short-term memory loss:
• Increase oxygen to the hippocampus (exercise or use hyperbaric oxygen therapy)
• Increase ketones
• Fasting
• Take vitamin D
• Consume foods high in zinc
• Take vitamin B1 (nutritional yeast)
• Decrease stress

How to increase ketones:
• Get on a low-carb diet (the healthy keto diet)
• Consume MCT oil
• Take exogenous ketones

Any Benefit of Fasting for 14 Hours?

November 20, 2020

Is fasting for 14 hours enough? Here’s what you need to know.

Timestamps
0:00 Are there benefits of fasting for 14 hours?
0:38 Benefits of fasting for 14 hours
0:57 The best fasting patterns
1:37 What you could do

Someone wanted to know whether or not there are any benefits of fasting for 14 hours. They said they eat breakfast at 8 am and fast until dinner at 6 pm. Then, they fast until breakfast the next morning.

This person is fasting for 10 hours during the day and 14 hours at night. A person can receive benefits from this fasting pattern. However, you may not experience autophagy, which has to do with anti-aging and recycling old proteins.

Potential benefits of fasting for 14 hours:
• Weight loss
• Cognitive benefits
• Mood benefits
• Reduction in inflammation

The sweet spot to see some really amazing fasting benefits is to fast between 16 to 18 hours per day. Then, you could go up to 20 hours of fasting and even possibly start consuming one meal per day. With this, you may see more intense benefits and even benefits from autophagy.

What you may want to do is take advantage of the time that you’re fasting while sleeping and push it further from there. Try to slowly push your first meal from 8 am to 9 am, and from 9 am to 10 am. If you were to consume one meal at 10 am and one meal at 6 pm, you would have 16 hours of fasting. You could do this for a week or two and then push your first meal to 12 pm. This will give you 18 hours of fasting. This could produce amazing benefits.

Fiber and Gallstones

November 17, 2020

DATA:

Should you consume more fiber for gallstones? Here’s what you need to know.

Timestamps
0:00 Fiber for gallstones
0:10 A deeper look at fiber
0:55 What causes gallstones?
1:03 What does bile do?
1:40 The type of fiber to consume

Today we’re going to talk about the relationship between fiber and gallstones. The more fiber you consume, the more bile you’re going to release. Over 95% of the bile in your body gets reabsorbed in the last part of the small intestine.

As you lose more bile, there are certain sensors in your large intestine that signal back up to the liver, telling the liver there isn’t enough bile. This negative feedback loop causes the liver to make more bile. The more bile your body makes, the less concentrated the cholesterol stones become, and the greater the decreased risk of gallstones. The cause of gallstones is a lack of bile, so more production of bile may help decrease the risk of gallstones.

Bile does many different things, such as:
• It helps you absorb fat-soluble vitamins and omega-3 fats
• It helps break down fats
• It helps kill bacteria in the small intestine

One important thing to note is that you always want to consume more vegetable fiber instead of grain fiber.
