- 0:14Speaker 2: Where we are revealing the eternal in each individual, the
- 0:18Speaker 2: infinite in the individual, the creativity is made manifest, limitation
- 0:25Speaker 2: is let go. Now, here's your host, doctor Troy Munson.
- 0:30Speaker 3: Hello and welcome. I'm doctor Troy. I love when I
- 0:33Speaker 3: read articles that say your vitamins are bad for you. Oh,
- 0:37Speaker 3: you can't do vitamin C, it's bad for you. And
- 0:41Speaker 3: while that is true when they are synthetic, it is
- 0:44Speaker 3: interesting that we have this whole misconception. It's almost like
- 0:50Speaker 3: they do this just to make sure that they keep
- 0:53Speaker 3: us confused enough, because most of us have our daily
- 0:57Speaker 3: grind in life and we just don't want to go
- 0:59Speaker 3: do the research to really know whether or not my
- 1:02Speaker 3: vitamins are bad for me. And this is an excellent
- 1:07Speaker 3: way to at least evaluate your vitamins. Most of the time,
- 1:11Speaker 3: if you turn your vitamin bottle around and you see
- 1:15Speaker 3: something in parentheses like oh, calcium carbonate or D alpha
- 1:22Speaker 3: to coopherol or whatever, it's likely that it's probably synthetic
- 1:30Speaker 3: and probably not very good for you. Now what's fascinating
- 1:33Speaker 3: is they've done research that if you take more than
- 1:37Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty seven, I don't know how they
- 1:40Speaker 3: found out it was one hundred and thirty seven, but
- 1:42Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty seven international units of vitamin E
- 1:48Speaker 3: meaning the synthetic form, the D alpha to coferol sucson
- 1:53Speaker 3: eate they'll call it. If you decide to actually take
- 1:56Speaker 3: a synthetic vitamin and you do more than one hundred
- 1:59Speaker 3: and thirty seven, and you're going to have cerebral swelling
- 2:03Speaker 3: or increased risk of cerebral hemorrhaging, meaning your brain is
- 2:07Speaker 3: going to bleed. Now that is interesting. Why what's going on? Well,
- 2:14Speaker 3: D alpha to coopher all, which is in natural vitamin
- 2:19Speaker 3: E in its natural form, is a preservative. But because
- 2:24Speaker 3: our government said, we don't care what you do, we
- 2:27Speaker 3: just know that if we label D alpha to coepherral,
- 2:31Speaker 3: because it's easy to find in a food, we're going
- 2:34Speaker 3: to understand roughly how much whole vitamin E complex there
- 2:38Speaker 3: actually is. And so our wonderful vitamin companies they just
- 2:44Speaker 3: simply buy mixed to kopherrals from drug companies that have
- 2:49Speaker 3: the ability to make these in their lab and then
- 2:52Speaker 3: they repackage it and sell it to the unknowing public
- 2:55Speaker 3: as vitamin E because you can label vitamin E as
- 3:01Speaker 3: vitamin E when it's only di alphatakophorol. So we try
- 3:05Speaker 3: to shy away from calling things vitamins in my office
- 3:09Speaker 3: because we realize that a single vitamin is not really
- 3:13Speaker 3: where it's at.
- 3:15Speaker 1: Now.
- 3:15Speaker 3: There are some that are capable of being single, like
- 3:21Speaker 3: coline or inocetol, which are types of B vitamins. But
- 3:25Speaker 3: notice they don't actually call them be vitamins anymore, because
- 3:28Speaker 3: if our gut bacteria are good, they actually produce certain
- 3:34Speaker 3: amounts of coline of enocetol. Our body has the ability
- 3:39Speaker 3: to make these substances, so they're not vital amines or vitamins.
- 3:45Speaker 3: They simply are things that we can produce in our body,
- 3:49Speaker 3: and we don't have to get them necessarily from our food.
- 3:52Speaker 3: So they're not something that is necessary for life because
- 3:56Speaker 3: we do produce them. So I digress. It's kind of
- 3:59Speaker 3: a long winded answer for this, but let's go down
- 4:03Speaker 3: a couple of others. Now here's the kicker, vitamin C.
- 4:07Speaker 3: So many people take a scorbic acid, but roughly after
- 4:11Speaker 3: about one hundred and eighty milligrams. Usually it's just right
- 4:17Speaker 3: at two hundred, but I'll say it's one hundred and
- 4:19Speaker 3: eighty milligrams of ascorbic acid. Your bowels are going to
- 4:23Speaker 3: flush it. It cannot use it, it cannot absorb it.
- 4:26Speaker 3: It does not need it, because a scorbic acid is
- 4:29Speaker 3: the covering of the vitamin C complex. It is not
- 4:34Speaker 3: vitamin C alone. It is the preservative. And so there
- 4:38Speaker 3: are five hundred things that make vitamin C what it
- 4:43Speaker 3: actually is, and all those things are vital components to
- 4:48Speaker 3: making it work right in the body. If we were
- 4:51Speaker 3: going to pick one component out of vitamin C, it
- 4:54Speaker 3: would be the cofactor or the enzyme cofactor called tyrosinase,
- 4:59Speaker 3: which is is organic copper, not the blue stuff that's
- 5:03Speaker 3: on your skin if you wear a copper bracelet, that's metallic.
- 5:07Speaker 3: So vitamin C in its synthetic form as ascorbic acid
- 5:11Speaker 3: is quite not good for us, but people take it
- 5:15Speaker 3: by the thousands of milligrams. In fact, doctors will even
- 5:18Speaker 3: sometimes do an IV drip of fifty thousand unit bag
- 5:23Speaker 3: of vitamin C slowly into your body over an hour
- 5:26Speaker 3: or two or three. So it never ceases to amaze
- 5:30Speaker 3: me what they'll do instead of just eating food. Now,
- 5:34Speaker 3: the last one I want to talk about is vitamin A.
- 5:36Speaker 3: So many of us we get confused because we have
- 5:38Speaker 3: this retinyl palmitate and yet we have beta carotine. If
- 5:42Speaker 3: you've never heard of rentall palmitate, that is the actual
- 5:45Speaker 3: form of vitamin A. That's what we don't have to convert.
- 5:48Speaker 3: Beta carotene is what we have to convert. It's often
- 5:51Speaker 3: considered a synthetic, but ultimately plants do have lots of
- 5:54Speaker 3: beta carotine, and beta carotene takes between four to six
- 5:59Speaker 3: times times as much beta carotene to make or convert
- 6:03Speaker 3: into retinal palmitate, which is the real form of vitamin
- 6:06Speaker 3: A that we want. Now, I say that that's the
- 6:09Speaker 3: real form we want, but there are many many forms
- 6:11Speaker 3: of vitamin A. There are not just one. It's not
- 6:14Speaker 3: just retinal palmitate, but it's one of the main forms
- 6:16Speaker 3: that we can take and then convert into other things
- 6:19Speaker 3: quite effortlessly in our body. There is even studies out
- 6:22Speaker 3: there that say it takes somewhere even upwards of twenty
- 6:26Speaker 3: eight times the beta carotene to make one retinal palmitate.
- 6:32Speaker 3: And while that may be true, the worst your gut
- 6:35Speaker 3: is the less you can take the beta carotene and
- 6:38Speaker 3: convert it to natural vitamin A. So if you're thinking,
- 6:42Speaker 3: wait a minute, if I eat plants and I thought
- 6:44Speaker 3: I was getting vitamin A, maybe if we have even
- 6:47Speaker 3: that kind of knowledge, most of us don't even care.
- 6:50Speaker 3: But if you are down that road and you're wondering,
- 6:52Speaker 3: like I sometimes will wait a minute, where do I
- 6:56Speaker 3: get vitamin A from? If not from plants, it is
- 6:59Speaker 3: an an excellent source in liver, cod liver oil, as
- 7:05Speaker 3: well as fish and seafood, some nuts, and so you'll
- 7:11Speaker 3: get it from things like that. It is excellent out
- 7:15Speaker 3: of raw dairy, so raw butter fat or raw cream
- 7:20Speaker 3: wonderful source of vitamin a. Now, just some ideas for
- 7:25Speaker 3: you as you move forward. But ultimately, if you've got
- 7:29Speaker 3: supplements and you're taking them and you're thinking, man, I've
- 7:32Speaker 3: got a multivitamin and I've been taking it for a while,
- 7:34Speaker 3: and you turn it around and you look at it
- 7:36Speaker 3: and you see a lot of things in parentheses, and
- 7:39Speaker 3: you see some exact percentages like one hundred percent of
- 7:43Speaker 3: your daily allowance of blah blah blah, you probably have
- 7:47Speaker 3: yourself a synthetic and if you read the ingredients and
- 7:50Speaker 3: you don't see any food anywhere on it, you definitely
- 7:54Speaker 3: have yourself a synthetic vitamin. And I would be cautious
- 7:57Speaker 3: with that. If it says take two to for a day,
- 8:00Speaker 3: I would only be doing one and when you were done,
- 8:04Speaker 3: I would upgrade your diet or go to a different supplement.
- 8:07Speaker 3: And if you're wanting some assistance with that, I am
- 8:10Speaker 3: happy to help you. Please shoot me line. It would
- 8:13Speaker 3: be a wonderful, wonderful thing for me to help you
- 8:16Speaker 3: actually feel better, because when my clients take what I
- 8:19Speaker 3: give them, they actually tell me for the first time
- 8:22Speaker 3: they can feel the difference in their vitamins and that
- 8:27Speaker 3: is huge for them. Until next time, I'm doctor Troy,
- 8:30Speaker 3: and remember there is way more right with you than
- 8:34Speaker 3: there is wrong with you.
