  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 0:02
  SPEAKER_00: Hey, all y'all.
• 0:03
  SPEAKER_00: My name is Dr.
• 0:04
  SPEAKER_00: Brett Brimhall.
• 0:05
  SPEAKER_00: Welcome to Wellness Wednesday.
• 0:08
  SPEAKER_00: Super grateful you're here.
• 0:10
  SPEAKER_00: This is something we've been doing for a long time now.
• 0:13
  SPEAKER_00: I'm inviting people to hop on and to learn more about how to take control of their health.
• 0:18
  SPEAKER_00: It's been a huge blessing for me to be a part of that over the years and to give people some hope or at least some understanding of what I've learned over the decade I've been in practice is unfortunately the things that affect our health the most, most of us don't know about, and we weren't taught in school.
• 0:34
  SPEAKER_00: You're going to learn some things tonight that I know drastically can impact your lives and where you have a better understanding of how to empower yourselves and those that you love and care about.
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_00: What we're going to do tonight a little differently.
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_00: Just my background briefly, I'm a chiropractor, nutritionist, acupuncturist.
• 0:49
  SPEAKER_00: I've been in clinical practice for 26 plus years, 52.
• 0:53
  SPEAKER_00: I've been in a chiropractic practice officially since I was 14 years old, studying with my dad.
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_00: And tonight we're going to talk about something that's you probably heard about.
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_00: But before we do that, I want to kind of paint a picture for you.
• 1:05
  SPEAKER_00: Is so tomorrow morning I leave really early to go to Dallas, Texas, to train over 300 doctors on things that we're going to share with you tonight.
• 1:12
  SPEAKER_00: And it's really important that you share this information with those you care about because there are people that will never come and see me that need the information we're going to share with you tonight.
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_00: And what really matters is not the knowledge, it really matters is what it can do in people's lives.
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_00: So before what we're going to do a little different tonight, I'm going to have, I'm going to talk a little bit, we're going to share some stories, and I'm going to come back and paint a picture as to why these things happened the way they did.
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_00: And so I've asked two people to come to come on tonight and to share their story because we're talking about gut health and we're talking about brain and the brain-gut connection and the impact that can have on health.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_00: So just so you know, every one of you, like your gut is affecting your mental health.
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_00: Good, bad, or indifferent.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: But the power of a healthy gut can have such a drastic impact on people's lives and they don't even realize it.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: So I'm going to show you one quick picture because I think it's kind of fun.
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: And this is a you may have heard this idea of the gut brain connection, but maybe not seen a visual of it.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_00: So let me show a I'm going to share a visual with you of what that actually can look like.
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: So this image is just the image of one particular nerve called a vagus nerve.
• 3:42
  SPEAKER_00: That was pretty cool.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_03: I think it kicked everybody out, I think.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know how everybody's still here.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_00: So I I got just I got kicked out.
• 3:50
  SPEAKER_00: So apparently I'm on somebody's naughty list.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_00: Alright, so here we go again.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: You guys, so you saw my nerve, right?
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_00: The vagus nerve.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_00: Can you see that still or is it gone?
• 4:01
  SPEAKER_00: It's gone?
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, let me see.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_00: It's gone.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_00: That's pretty funny.
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know how that happened.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_00: All right, here it is.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_00: So just know this is the direct connection.
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_00: You guys see that now, Sherida?
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_00: So this is the direct connection between your brain and your and and your gut.
• 4:15
  SPEAKER_00: And and think so that nerve not only has uh what's called efferent pathways where it talks to, but it has afferent path path pathways, which means talk listening to.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_00: So this nerve helps listen to your gut and talk to your gut at the same time.
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_00: And that's important because there should be a connection between your gut and your brain in any way, shape, or form.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_00: Even that idea of, hey, when you exercise, like don't eat right after you don't exercise right after you eat because you might get cramped, because when you move blood from one place to the other, it can affect the functionality of something.
• 4:46
  SPEAKER_00: So you know, like this is the direct connection, and you're gonna understand why this is so important as you hear some of these stories.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_00: So I'm gonna stop that share because we're gonna come back to something else here in a minute.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_00: And so I've asked a couple people to hop on this call tonight and to really help you understand the power that your gut has on your health and the power of what's called activation.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_00: So many of us in here are part of a company called Life Vantage that's a nutrigenomics activation company that really helps the body make the things that it should be making and activating the pathways in the body that should be working.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_00: So every single one of you, I want to think about every single one of you having a certain health potential and a lifespan potential, but not necessarily a lifespan, but a health span potential.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_00: The potential of how that looks is dependent upon how healthy your individual cells are and how well those cells communicate with each other.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: It's what we focus on as the company is understanding that process and bringing products to the market that address the processes of activation, activating your body's ability to handle inflammation, activating your body's ability to produce energy and help the cells communicate, help the body communicate.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_00: And because how you show up every day is a result of how healthy your cells are at cleaning up the crap, making energy, and communicating.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 6:05
  SPEAKER_00: So I want to I want to kind of bring this case for it because the result of that cell function determines how somebody shows up in the world.
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_00: So I want to kind of I'm gonna have Sheridan come on.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_00: This Sherda's my sister, she's a massage therapist, been in practice as long as I have her longer when it comes to massage therapy.
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_00: But I got into this company partially because of her son, because he was born on drug.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_00: Not now, she wasn't on drugs, make that clear.
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_00: She adopted her son, who was born on it with methane in his system and other drugs.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_00: And so his brain was basically bathed in things that it shouldn't have in it that affected how and which his brain flesh.
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: So if you looked at him, he looked like a normal child.
• 6:45
  SPEAKER_00: Like he just looked, he looks like, hey, he's fine.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_00: Like he looks like a normal kid.
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_00: But when he processed the world, he had a nickname that I gave him called Wo-WO, because he just had no stop.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_00: And it showed up a speci uh really heavily when he started school.
• 7:02
  SPEAKER_00: So, Sherrod, if you would kind of kind of highlight him what you what his life was like, what it looked like, his school, and what happened when you first started activation, and then what happened as you applied different tools in activation and really where he is today.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, for sure.
• 7:15
  SPEAKER_03: So in grade school is when this was introduced into our lives.
• 7:20
  SPEAKER_03: Brett brought it to my house and said, just give this to Weston.
• 7:22
  SPEAKER_03: And so I did.
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_03: And at this point, he'd already been held back in kindergarten, and the and a couple teachers had mentioned holding him back again.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_03: And I just was really kind of refused to do that.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_03: And even if he was struggling and not top of his class, or even like some days just squeaking by, I'm like, I didn't want to hold him back again.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_03: And so at that time is when Axio came into our lives, and so I started giving that to West.
• 7:46
  SPEAKER_03: And within two weeks, you guys, his teacher noticed a difference.
• 7:50
  SPEAKER_03: So he forgot his axio.
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_03: I went to the school, took it to him, and he took the axial from me and went and sat in his desk and started taking a test.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_03: Within two weeks of taking axial, a kid that didn't advocate for himself, if he had a problem or he needed to change something, he would bring me in to advocate for him.
• 8:07
  SPEAKER_03: He asked his teacher if he could not go into a small classroom and take tests anymore, but he wanted to take them in the main classroom with the other students, which was something he hadn't done for over a year.
• 8:15
  SPEAKER_03: And so that was the original like start to seeing a shift in him.
• 8:20
  SPEAKER_03: And little by little he just got better and better.
• 8:22
  SPEAKER_03: And some subjects he still struggled, and some days he wasn't sitting at his desk like he should, but drastically, so much better.
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_03: Communication and just fitting in with his peers, so much better.
• 8:32
  SPEAKER_03: There's so many things that just got better and better.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_03: And so he stayed on Axio really consistently, really faithfully, all through the rest of grade school and into junior high.
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_03: And we got to high school, I'm like, maybe, because I learned more about activation and what the Axo is doing for his brain.
• 8:47
  SPEAKER_03: I'm like, maybe if I added pro tandem NRF2 and the probio, so probio is uh probiotics.
• 8:54
  SPEAKER_03: If I, you know, your gut's your second brain.
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_03: I'm like, if I add those, maybe that would help him even further.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_03: And so his junior year in high school, I had him start taking those two things along with the AXU every day.
• 9:05
  SPEAKER_03: And that junior year wound up turning into being his senior year, and he graduated a year early.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_03: So this was a kid who struggled with school.
• 9:14
  SPEAKER_03: He struggled with his peers, he struggled advocating for himself.
• 9:17
  SPEAKER_03: So he got to high school, skipped over a year, and he graduated with A's and B's.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_03: That is the only shift that I made.
• 9:24
  SPEAKER_03: And so from that, I've just been blown away and he's just done better and better.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_03: So now he's 20 years old, he's on a mission for our church.
• 9:32
  SPEAKER_03: So he lives on his own.
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_03: He does everything every day.
• 9:36
  SPEAKER_03: He's actually helping train another missionary that that just came out after him.
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_03: So he's doing things that I didn't even know were going to be possible for him.
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_03: When he was little, I didn't even know if he could drive a car.
• 9:46
  SPEAKER_03: Like I just didn't know what life looked like for him.
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_03: And where he's at now is just, I mean, it just blows my mind.
• 9:52
  SPEAKER_03: So he's just doing better and better every day.
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_00: So and I love that story.
• 9:56
  SPEAKER_00: And I appreciate you like sharing this because when she I came back learning about axial, which is what what we call it a nootrophic.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: So I think that brain food.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_00: What that did, it allowed his brain to have some of the nutrients that it needed and to turn on pathways where your brain could learn, remember, retain, and recall.
• 10:12
  SPEAKER_00: Because of that, he was able to focus better.
• 10:15
  SPEAKER_00: He was able to like kind of get more out of the experience because all of us go through walk through life, right?
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_00: But we don't all get the same out of life.
• 10:22
  SPEAKER_00: And for him, the way his brain was working, he wasn't getting the same out of life because his brain really couldn't take in the information, assimilate it, and put it back out in a really good way, which then affected his confidence and his ability to advocate.
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_00: So as he began getting those nutrients to his brain, he began to do those things when she added in protein nerve two.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_00: And what it does, it helps the body make enzymes that help regulate the garbage.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_00: Now, I don't know about you, but most kids and a lot of humans don't eat good.
• 10:50
  SPEAKER_00: So garbage in, garbage out.
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_00: So if his body was able to remove some of the garbage, we call it inflammation in medicine.
• 10:56
  SPEAKER_00: And as that happened, and then she added a probiotic that was what we had at the time, that would help the gut heal, was help it assimilate better, you know, absorb more nutrients and regulate the absorption of foods and had the brain gut connection.
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_00: He then went a hut on the leap where instead of like just kind of getting by doing okay, his social skills drastically improved.
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_00: His ability to advocate drastically improved, and his retention of information and spinning it back out where he showed again Anees improved.
• 11:27
  SPEAKER_00: Now, why is that?
• 11:28
  SPEAKER_00: Because remember, the experience you have in life is a result of how this individual cells work together to communicate and coordinate.
• 11:38
  SPEAKER_00: And as that happened, so as she had the nootrophic of axial, and then adding the probio getting the gut healthy work connected to the brain better and helped to regulate the garbage.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_00: All of a sudden, now he began to become be more efficient at having this human experience so much where he felt strong enough to serve a two-year mission to where he's he, and again, we didn't know what that if that was even possible.
• 12:00
  SPEAKER_00: So here's the mom thing, I don't think we'll drive.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_00: And and so the result of how you are in life is how activated your cells are.
• 12:07
  SPEAKER_00: So for him specifically, it's allowing him to mature and grow and learn in life, which again creates the confidence.
• 12:15
  SPEAKER_00: And that's super important.
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_00: So just kind of know, and I'm gonna show in a minute a study that kind of highlights why this might be.
• 12:24
  SPEAKER_00: Like, we're gonna talk about a couple of like maybe extreme cases, like cases where, like, okay, well, my kid wasn't born on drugs, okay, right, or whatever it might be.
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_00: But understand if it can help the the toughest of the tough, like if you just want to improve yourself by 5, 10, 15%, like what other tools are you utilizing that can allow you to do that?
• 12:46
  SPEAKER_00: And we just want you to know these are some tools available that I didn't even know existed until I found out, and so I started applying them.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_00: So thank you, Sheridan.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_00: That's awesome.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_00: And it's super fun to watch where he is confidence level wise and the this the skills he's developing because he feels like he can go on and do those things.
• 13:01
  SPEAKER_00: So thank you.
• 13:02
  SPEAKER_00: Heidi, I appreciate you hopping on here.
• 13:04
  SPEAKER_00: I know I've kind of followed your Sam's story for a long time, but I'd like to love maybe kind of paint a picture for us of his process of activation and as you apply the different product, which basically affect different parts of his system, what you've noticed in him.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_01: Sure.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_01: Well, thank you first, Brett, for asking me to share.
• 13:23
  SPEAKER_01: Um I kind of thought it was coming when you reached out the other day and you're like, hey, how's Sam doing?
• 13:30
  SPEAKER_01: So, okay, so my son Samuel, he is our oldest of three boys.
• 13:35
  SPEAKER_01: And when he was in second grade, he was diagnosed on the autism spectrum.
• 13:41
  SPEAKER_01: So lots of struggles for Sam all through school.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, we did all the things, we did all the therapies, we did all of that.
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_01: I actually ended up even going back to nutritional therapy school to help him to learn more about nutrition and what I could do to benefit him.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_01: But it really, all of those therapies, they they helped.
• 14:00
  SPEAKER_01: They all had little benefits.
• 14:02
  SPEAKER_01: But what really we started noticing huge improvements in him was when we were introduced to activation.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_01: And that wasn't until he was a sophomore in high school.
• 14:11
  SPEAKER_01: Samuel is one who has always struggled with his motor skills, with communication.
• 14:16
  SPEAKER_01: He's a very bright, like avid reader, but his brain almost works faster than his mouth.
• 14:22
  SPEAKER_01: And so he stumbles over his words a lot when he's talking and he kind of gets hung up.
• 14:28
  SPEAKER_01: Social skills, of course, are a big thing for him.
• 14:31
  SPEAKER_01: And certain subjects in school have always been really hard.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_01: So when we were first introduced to activation, and like I said, he was a sophomore in high school, and we started him immediately because with my nutrition background, I understood like what this was going to do for the cells.
• 14:46
  SPEAKER_01: I started him with Axio, just like Sherida was saying.
• 14:49
  SPEAKER_01: And we started him with the ProTandem NRF2.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_01: So those two products.
• 14:54
  SPEAKER_01: And kind of the same story as what Sherida said.
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_01: Within about two weeks, his teacher's emailing us saying, What are you doing?
• 15:02
  SPEAKER_01: He's participating in class.
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_01: He's offering to come up and do math on the board, which math is not his strong suit.
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_01: He's remembering his homework.
• 15:11
  SPEAKER_01: He also has dysgraphia.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_01: So his handwriting is just horrid or always was horrid.
• 15:15
  SPEAKER_01: And he learned to type at a very young age so that he could do his schoolwork.
• 15:20
  SPEAKER_01: And he started writing and you could read it.
• 15:23
  SPEAKER_01: And like that, to me, I just stood there embald when I saw that because he was able to communicate on paper in a way that he had never really been able to do before, which was so amazing.
• 15:36
  SPEAKER_01: And so we we kind of continued down that path of helping him and we would layer other activation products.
• 15:41
  SPEAKER_01: The collagen really helped his digestive system, but we didn't notice a whole lot of the gut brain connection stuff from that, not until P84, and Brett will probably talk about this, came out.
• 15:53
  SPEAKER_01: It's a gut health drink.
• 15:55
  SPEAKER_01: When that came out, I guess that was what October last year.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_01: And we started him on that.
• 16:03
  SPEAKER_01: I actually have a list, you guys, that I'm just gonna read to you because it was almost daily things were changing and happening for Sam.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_01: And so I didn't want to forget anything because I was really trying to track this.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_01: So I just started writing things down.
• 16:16
  SPEAKER_01: But within about three days, we just noticed my husband and I were just talking to him, and he had this spark in his eyes, like this brightness, this almost mischievous look in his eyes that he had not had in, I don't know, since he was a toddler, probably.
• 16:33
  SPEAKER_01: And so that kind of caught our attention.
• 16:35
  SPEAKER_01: But from there, we started noticing much more awareness, like he was aware of people needing help and offering to help them.
• 16:41
  SPEAKER_01: He was doing chores without being asked, offering to do things around the house.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_01: He was he found that it was a lot, and this was something that he brought up to me that I hadn't even caught.
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_01: He he was able to communicate easier.
• 16:55
  SPEAKER_01: His brain was kind of going at the same pace as his mouth.
• 16:58
  SPEAKER_01: And so he was able to speak without stumbling over his words, sleeping better.
• 17:03
  SPEAKER_01: We noticed he started doing math in his head, which is something that he had not ever done in front of us before, having an appropriate response to injury and pain.
• 17:13
  SPEAKER_01: He started making jokes, which like sarcasm is really hard for Sam, but he started making jokes with people and kind of picking on people a little bit.
• 17:20
  SPEAKER_01: And with two other brothers, that you know, that happens a lot around our house.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_01: And just generally more engaged, offering or asking to play games, which he is not something that he would ever do before.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_01: And it just kind of continues to sort of roll forward now.
• 17:35
  SPEAKER_01: He's in a place where he's much more interactive with people, whether it's family members or strangers.
• 17:40
  SPEAKER_01: He doesn't kind of hide off with his books as much as he used to.
• 17:44
  SPEAKER_01: And he's really, he's in this place of, I think, like Brett was talking about confidence.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_01: He's starting to get some of this confidence in himself where he feels like, and we are seeing that there's a there's a possibility that at to some degree he will be able to live out on his own.
• 18:01
  SPEAKER_01: He's learning these new skills, he's asking to learn to cook different things, and he's really starting to sort of blossom.
• 18:07
  SPEAKER_01: So it's fun to see.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_01: I'm excited to see where he continues to go.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_00: I love all this.
• 18:13
  SPEAKER_00: Like it's it's fascinating to hear you tell that story and to think about how many people out there, like we wonder like, you know, what capacity were our children be safe?
• 18:26
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 18:27
  SPEAKER_00: And then can they eventually have the confidence and the skills to eventually be okay without us?
• 18:31
  SPEAKER_00: Like as parents, like really kind of at the core, like we just want to make sure those things happen.
• 18:36
  SPEAKER_00: And I love that you went back to school, right?
• 18:39
  SPEAKER_00: So you're just trying to like, how do I help this?
• 18:42
  SPEAKER_00: This is not an unusual story.
• 18:43
  SPEAKER_00: Like, moms will do anything, right, to try to help their kids.
• 18:47
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you activation or just became a tool, like where you and you just really know.
• 18:52
  SPEAKER_00: I know she removed all the bad stuff, like all the bad stuff, that whether you know the government told him it's good or not, like removed all this bad stuff and really tried to feed them the best he could.
• 19:00
  SPEAKER_00: But then because of the way in which his mind is working, he was doing all the therapy.
• 19:05
  SPEAKER_00: It's like exercise, doing this exercise with no benefit.
• 19:07
  SPEAKER_00: He was doing all the therapy, but his it wasn't sticking.
• 19:10
  SPEAKER_00: Like it was like his brain couldn't integrate it.
• 19:12
  SPEAKER_00: Where when she when you got the microbiome involved, it's it's like everything started cooking more.
• 19:19
  SPEAKER_00: And so now his retention became better.
• 19:21
  SPEAKER_00: And then once you have retention, you get communication and understanding of multiple things.
• 19:26
  SPEAKER_00: Like, oh, this is how this goes to this, this goes together.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_00: Where now his conflict comes as like, hey, I want to be involved with my family.
• 19:33
  SPEAKER_00: Because it imagine how frustrating that's got to be to have this crazy knowledge and feel like nobody understands you.
• 19:40
  SPEAKER_00: And that's where you'll see this frustration in a lot of the individuals that they don't feel understood.
• 19:46
  SPEAKER_00: It's not because they they don't know.
• 19:50
  SPEAKER_00: It's actually most times they just they're having a difficult time getting it out.
• 19:54
  SPEAKER_00: And so what she started with is like what Sherry said, like if we can find a way to help the brain get the nutrients it needs, like every cell needs nutrients to do its job.
• 20:04
  SPEAKER_00: Right?
• 20:05
  SPEAKER_00: Different cells need different things.
• 20:07
  SPEAKER_00: If you have a cell that's got to make a joint, it needs collagen.
• 20:10
  SPEAKER_00: A brain cell needs very specific things to do brain things.
• 20:13
  SPEAKER_00: So, and then every cell has to regulate the exhaust or the inflammation.
• 20:18
  SPEAKER_00: So when she gave him the trophic of axia, which is the brain food, and then gave him the protonum nerf two, which turned on the cell's capacity to regulate the exhaust.
• 20:30
  SPEAKER_00: So his was working at whatever percentage, let's say 10%, and all of a sudden now it's working at 30%, he was able to do more because he gets rid of the exhaust faster.
• 20:40
  SPEAKER_00: What we know is protonum nerf two reduces that oxidative stress burden by an average of 40% and 30 said up to 70% in three months.
• 20:49
  SPEAKER_00: And again, I know all of us, we've been taking a lot of us, we've been taking these things for years, so the body gets more efficient at doing those things.
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_00: So then when you add it in the P84, which even you know gut health stuff with a collagen, because there's a lot of like benefit to just having a healthier gut with collagen.
• 21:05
  SPEAKER_00: But the P84 is a product that has 84 different things in it that helps your microbiome be healthy.
• 21:12
  SPEAKER_00: And when a microbiome is healthy, you can you can digest, you can assimilate, and you can eliminate.
• 21:18
  SPEAKER_00: So think about everything that your your belt your body needs to repair, it has to first be eaten, digested, not reacted to, absorbed, and eliminated.
• 21:31
  SPEAKER_00: If that doesn't happen, it's super hard for that vagus and her to coordinate and control all those activities that have to happen to get that nutrient to a brain cell or to get it to an immune cell.
• 21:43
  SPEAKER_00: And because of that, with him, you're now seeing these this his ability to perform better.
• 21:48
  SPEAKER_00: So no matter who you are, and let's just say, Hey, I used to feel like I perform at this level, now I'm performing at this level, you just know you're deactivated.
• 21:56
  SPEAKER_00: At what what level do you want to activate yourself?
• 21:58
  SPEAKER_00: Well, find ways to, and again.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_00: Don't don't guess about what nutrients do it.
• 22:03
  SPEAKER_00: Understand there are products that are made designed to do that.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_00: So I'm going to show you guys kind of a fascinating study.
• 22:09
  SPEAKER_00: Because what you're hearing about today, and and I would challenge when you go to talk to this, if you have a neurodiverse child or family member or even any type of mental health, I would challenge you to ask your doctors, like, hey, doc, would oxidative stress or mitochondrial dysfunction or the microbiome have anything to do with like what's going on here?
• 22:29
  SPEAKER_00: And can I, is there anything I can do that maybe would influence this?
• 22:33
  SPEAKER_00: Again, this isn't in the way most people talk, but is it will be as we begin to understand, like we have to understand the processes and the system versus the symptoms.
• 22:43
  SPEAKER_00: So I'm gonna show this kind of a kind of a unique study that I just pulled up that I think you guys will find kind of interesting.
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 22:50
  SPEAKER_00: I think it is, it's probably there's some technical stuff to it, but I'm gonna highlight some points I think it's pretty fascinating.
• 22:57
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so let me pull this up.
• 22:59
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 23:00
  SPEAKER_00: Can you guys see that?
• 23:04
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 23:04
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so this is a website called PubMed.gov.
• 23:08
  SPEAKER_00: You can type it in, and you'll see at the top here it says published in 2024, May, May 3rd, 2024.
• 23:13
  SPEAKER_00: So we're just talking about a couple of years ago.
• 23:15
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 23:16
  SPEAKER_00: And what they're talking about is they're looking at how the mitochondria and other things affect autism.
• 23:23
  SPEAKER_00: So just think of this, let's change the word autism to brain.
• 23:27
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, there's some really kind of cool things about it, but here's here's some interesting things about this.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_00: And again, what could you call it brain?
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_00: They're saying one in 36 kids like have psychological abnormalities because of mitochondrial dysfunction.
• 23:40
  SPEAKER_00: They're they're linked to autism.
• 23:42
  SPEAKER_00: So, like, you know, one in 36.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_00: So you take a, you know, you take a high school class, right, of 2,000 kids, like, think how many like individuals are struggling because of these different things.
• 23:55
  SPEAKER_00: So they've talked about these different things and some interesting things, they'll talk about different, you know, nutrients, but like there are a couple key components I think is kind of fascinating down here.
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_00: If you want to read this later, please do.
• 24:05
  SPEAKER_00: But I'm gonna highlight a couple things here.
• 24:08
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 24:10
  SPEAKER_00: The link between mitochondria dysfunction in autism and other common common psychological individuals with ADIS, including gastrointestin disorders, oxidative stress, immune dysfunction.
• 24:22
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 24:23
  SPEAKER_00: So we just talked about this idea that the gut had an effect on brain.
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_00: That's exactly what they're saying here.
• 24:32
  SPEAKER_00: And the idea that the oxidated stress had an effect on brain.
• 24:36
  SPEAKER_00: And when you look at the core processes of why somebody had a hard time integrating information and then getting it back out, it has to do with the brain's ability to remove the exhaust, the mitochondria working to make the energy, and for the gut and the brain to be able to communicate correctly.
• 24:58
  SPEAKER_00: And again, so if and they they go in and they talk about some things that I thought is kind of interesting.
• 25:09
  SPEAKER_00: Says the fact that alterations in mitochondrial metabolism may be found during pregnancy and early in life of individuals who eventually develop ASD promo provides promise for life-predicted biomicrobial ADS.
• 25:21
  SPEAKER_00: So they're suggesting that we should possibly look at this in people that are gonna have babies.
• 25:29
  SPEAKER_00: So you talk about prenatal care.
• 25:31
  SPEAKER_00: Prenatal care is basically a conversation are you taking a vitamin or you're not smoking and drinking?
• 25:36
  SPEAKER_00: That's prenatal care.
• 25:38
  SPEAKER_00: What I'm suggesting is let's if you know, I'm thinking of something having kids, yeah.
• 25:42
  SPEAKER_00: My wife, my husband and I love kids, but like I don't want to have any more little rascals, okay?
• 25:46
  SPEAKER_00: But this is stuff that we were doing with my wife and I years ago.
• 25:50
  SPEAKER_00: This and by the way, this isn't just a if you're a guy, you don't get a pass.
• 25:54
  SPEAKER_00: Just know that.
• 25:55
  SPEAKER_00: Like you are you are part of the solution and part of the problem.
• 25:58
  SPEAKER_00: Your your sperm, the healthier sperm, has an effect upon the health of the baby.
• 26:04
  SPEAKER_00: That goes back to this idea of how well do your mitochondria work, how well does your body reduce oxidative stress, and how healthy is your microbiome.
• 26:13
  SPEAKER_00: Every single one of us.
• 26:14
  SPEAKER_00: What I love about this is so they'll what can I do about it?
• 26:17
  SPEAKER_00: And there, if you want to read more studies on it, go ahead later on PubMed.gov and type in other things that may be kind of interesting to you.
• 26:23
  SPEAKER_00: But here's kind of where I want to maybe a call to like what you can do about this.
• 26:29
  SPEAKER_00: Um, if this is an if if activation is new to you, the idea of like, hey, my cells have a capacity and potential that maybe I haven't tapped into yet, please like do your due diligence to like look at some, whoever invited you says to like look at the things that they're talking about.
• 26:47
  SPEAKER_00: And I don't care who you are, if you can make more energy and you can reduce the inflammation and you can improve your microbiome, you're gonna function at a higher level than you currently are.
• 26:57
  SPEAKER_00: If you do that for one month, that's good.
• 27:01
  SPEAKER_00: But the effects of what you do cumulative have a drastic effect of what will happen over time.
• 27:07
  SPEAKER_00: So stress doesn't feel bad unless you do it for a really long time.
• 27:12
  SPEAKER_00: And the same thing is true with activation.
• 27:14
  SPEAKER_00: So I think about Heidi and I think about Sherda.
• 27:17
  SPEAKER_00: What they did is they continue to apply this idea of activation and the technology behind it to their family.
• 27:24
  SPEAKER_00: And the results have been cumulative and exponential over time.
• 27:29
  SPEAKER_00: Because your cell doesn't do one thing, it does many things.
• 27:32
  SPEAKER_00: So when they work together, the result isn't one plus one equals two.
• 27:37
  SPEAKER_00: It can be one plus one plus one can equal five.
• 27:40
  SPEAKER_00: Now, some people have different effects of what they feel over time in certain things more than the other.
• 27:46
  SPEAKER_00: But what I can promise you is this activation or the science of understanding how you get yourself to clean up, how you get yourself to make energy, how to improve how the microbiome functions is at the core of what health will be for decades to come.
• 28:03
  SPEAKER_00: So, what we're doing here in the conversation we're having here, this will become what I consider normal in probably the next 10 to 15 years.
• 28:09
  SPEAKER_00: You're starting to hear about it, the idea of it, but very few companies have understand how to do it.
• 28:17
  SPEAKER_00: So, what I hope you'll do is like just start activating at whatever level you choose to do.
• 28:23
  SPEAKER_00: And by the way, that's also getting rid of all the crap that's in your environment you possibly can, both what you put inside your mouth and also what you listen to.
• 28:33
  SPEAKER_00: And then give your body the things that it needs to turn on the cellular process that God put into you.
• 28:39
  SPEAKER_00: All this like have a potential of our cell's ability to perform, but it can only do what it can do based upon what you give it.
• 28:49
  SPEAKER_00: And this is a phenomenal way to do it.
• 28:52
  SPEAKER_00: So, Heidi and Sherry, thank you so much for sharing your story of your children because this it's not only about like, you know, individuals that we know they struggle, you can see it in them, but it's also for those people that that you that you don't know they struggle and they think that there's no hope out there because they're they're they're being tired of, they're tired of having people trying to manage their symptoms or fix them.
• 29:14
  SPEAKER_00: This is not about fixing anybody.
• 29:16
  SPEAKER_00: This is about, hey, you know what?
• 29:18
  SPEAKER_00: If you could get more out of your sales ability, would you want to know how?
• 29:22
  SPEAKER_00: And just listening to both Weston's and Samuel's stories reminds me that there's a potential inside of people that maybe they don't even know is possible.
• 29:33
  SPEAKER_00: And I appreciate you guys being willing to share your stories and hope that somebody else might say, Hey, I wonder if I applied this consistently, like you two have, what the opportunity for my my loved one might be.
• 29:46
  SPEAKER_00: So appreciate you guys a ton for that.
• 29:47
  SPEAKER_00: And again, Heidi, thank you for being willing to, yeah, I know it's coming.
• 29:51
  SPEAKER_00: So I appreciate being willing to say yes.
• 29:53
  SPEAKER_00: And you guys, please get back, have the conversation with the person that invited you, see if it's a fit, and just know that it's real and that it can be can be very, very powerful.
• 30:03
  SPEAKER_00: And remember, every Wednesday we do these on different topics.
• 30:06
  SPEAKER_00: Um, invite your friends, families, and loved ones, and we'll see you again.
• 30:10
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, guys, appreciate you.
• 30:11
  SPEAKER_00: Have a good night.
• 30:13
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you again, Heidi.
• 30:14
  SPEAKER_00: Thanks, Sarah.
• 30:15
  SPEAKER_01: Welcome.
• 30:16
  SPEAKER_01: Bye.
• 30:16
  SPEAKER_01: Happy to
