What China Taught Me About Health, Family, AI, and What America May Be Missing · Non-Toxic Living

  When you see a copper product that's for sale for really cheap, it's a layer of copper.
• 0:07
  Around it.
• 0:08
  Yeah.
• 0:08
  The inside, it's still stainless steel.
• 0:10
  Don't buy that.
• 0:11
  No.
• 0:12
  And then when you see a copper, like a true copper cup for sale for $60, you're probably getting true, authentic, real copper.
• 0:19
  And then there is another way to ask them also is...
• 0:22
  The AI advancements there.
• 0:23
  Are they doing like super crazy...
• 0:26
  Oh, it's insane, the AI advancement.
• 0:29
  So I don't know if you heard of, I'm sure you know this app called Sheen.
• 0:33
  I know the Toxic Clothing Company.
• 0:35
  Yes.
• 0:35
  That's all I know.
• 0:36
  A lot of their clothing are actually made and produced by robots piece by piece, and they actually sew it.
• 0:43
  That's the reason why.
• 0:45
  What's more toxic, Chinese education or American education?
• 0:49
  Oh, I would have to say...
• 0:57
  Claire Martinson, a good friend of mine.
• 0:59
  We've met at a couple functional medicine training events.
• 1:02
  We were in Park City together.
• 1:03
  And you knew you were going to be in town.
• 1:05
  I'm like, come on the podcast.
• 1:07
  Let's talk about your story, why you're into the functional medicine space, created your own company.
• 1:13
  called BioBloom.
• 1:14
  We'll talk about that later.
• 1:16
  But yeah, so why did, you know, you were a first responder and now you're traveling all over the country, all over the world talking about peptides and natural healing strategies.
• 1:26
  Let's dig in.
• 1:27
  Yeah, so thank you so much, Warren, for inviting me.
• 1:31
  And I'm absolutely stoked to be here to inspire your audience, you know, just to shine another light on their lives and let them know, hey, we're also out here to help you.
• 1:43
  The first time when I realized that there was a big issue with the systemic health care was when my grandpa got diagnosed with a almost like a mutate.
• 1:55
  It's called myeloid fibrosis.
• 1:57
  It's a mutation in his blood.
• 2:00
  His blood was concaving inwards.
• 2:04
  And almost similar to leukemia, but not quite.
• 2:06
  And there was only about one person of the entire population in the world that had it.
• 2:12
  And the only cure at that time that they told us was he would have to get a bone marrow transplant.
• 2:19
  So from that on, everything was just kind of went downhill, right?
• 2:23
  Because he was...
• 2:24
  a senior, and they didn't immediately catch the disease.
• 2:29
  The doctor said, oh, you're older.
• 2:31
  You're, you just don't have any more energy.
• 2:33
  You're just tired.
• 2:34
  So take a nap, go to sleep.
• 2:36
  They didn't dig down deeper into the root cause until it was too late, until we had to go to the cancer facilities
• 2:43
  then for them to find the root cause of what was really going on with my grandpa.
• 2:48
  So my grandpa was a healthy individual.
• 2:50
  He walked every day.
• 2:51
  Him and my grandma actually used to swim in the Pacific Ocean in October when it's like really cold just to keep up with their, you know, fitness and their agility.
• 3:02
  Avid Fisher, a fantastic father figure to me as well.
• 3:07
  I learned so much from him growing up.
• 3:09
  Losing him was probably an awakening moment for myself as well.
• 3:16
  And that's when I started tapping into what else is out there that can be done besides these doctors telling the elderly population that the only thing they have is, well, you're just tired.
• 3:30
  Go take a nap.
• 3:31
  Go sleep.
• 3:32
  What are other alternative ways can we help these individuals
• 3:36
  to increase their health level by increasing their energy and at the same time helping them get healthier.
• 3:44
  I think it's a big problem in our health care industry.
• 3:47
  I mean, we could get an expert on here to talk about how crooked these elderly care homes, state homes are.
• 3:53
  These people work their whole lives.
• 3:56
  pay their taxes, get their Social Security, do all this stuff.
• 3:59
  They wind up in a home.
• 4:01
  And if you don't have outside money, they're literally feeding them, not giving them options, forcing them to take naps, giving them food and plastic containers with plastic lids.
• 4:15
  I mean, I worked at these facilities.
• 4:17
  Me too.
• 4:17
  Yeah, we both did.
• 4:18
  Me too.
• 4:19
  Yeah, so growing up, so I know exactly how nasty they are.
• 4:22
  But if you went to the new wing where they got better food, they got better care.
• 4:26
  But still, even then, really not how it's not how it worked in China.
• 4:32
  No.
• 4:32
  I wouldn't think.
• 4:33
  No.
• 4:34
  But here in America, it's like, oh, the elderly, well, they just slow down the economic engine.
• 4:38
  Let's throw them in the home.
• 4:39
  Let's disconnect them from family.
• 4:41
  The very thing that creates longevity.
• 4:43
  You could take all these peptides all day long.
• 4:46
  There's nothing that's going to create longevity.
• 4:49
  like community and human connection, and we take it from them.
• 4:53
  Yeah, I absolutely agree.
• 4:54
  Go take a nap.
• 4:55
  Right.
• 4:55
  No, honestly, one of the biggest difference, I grew up in China.
• 5:00
  So I came here when I was 12.
• 5:02
  The biggest difference that I saw coming here was the families are very disconnected from one another.
• 5:09
  I went to a friend's house.
• 5:12
  Their family actually labeled their own food.
• 5:15
  The mom had her stash.
• 5:17
  The dad had theirs.
• 5:18
  And then these are the kids.
• 5:20
  You can't touch the mom's stuff.
• 5:21
  That's hers.
• 5:22
  And then you can't touch the dad's.
• 5:24
  You had what you had in the fridge.
• 5:26
  And I found that very weird almost in a sense.
• 5:30
  Like you're a family.
• 5:31
  You're sharing a bond together.
• 5:33
  We're intertwined with our blood, with our genes, with our genetics.
• 5:37
  Why are you living in this way?
• 5:38
  And then the mom and the dad would be like, well, I'm not expecting them to help me out when I'm older.
• 5:43
  I'm going to put myself in a home.
• 5:46
  In China, in our culture, it's so different.
• 5:48
  Like my grandma lives with my mom.
• 5:51
  And we all know that by the time our parents are older, it's our responsibility, our duty as children to then take over and start helping them out and be there for them.
• 6:03
  Being that extra hand and just constantly asking them like, hey, what do you need?
• 6:08
  Like till this day, I always I need to do it more often.
• 6:11
  But I go to my grandma's all the time.
• 6:15
  Let's go grocery shopping or hey, do you need to go see your doctors?
• 6:18
  Let's go.
• 6:19
  Let's get that done.
• 6:20
  I am very fortunate to be working with my family in my family business.
• 6:25
  So every time when it's about my grandma or any one of our family members, my mom always said, do not come to work.
• 6:34
  Go hang out and go help grandma first.
• 6:37
  Yeah, it's interesting.
• 6:38
  In America, we're a society that's disconnected from family for the most part.
• 6:44
  Even how we build our homes, you know, like...
• 6:49
  the amount that food costs because we're paying these CEOs massive amounts of money as it sits at the top.
• 6:54
  So the, the sit at the top of these big food corporations, like everything is so expensive and disconnected.
• 7:01
  And in China and other countries, they're more connected with their food, with their family.
• 7:07
  And it isn't a, it's not always a take scenario in the U S it's, you know, you shoot what you kill, take, take, take, you have to take care of you and it's,
• 7:18
  In that, you really lose connection with your heart.
• 7:21
  In America, I feel that the kids, the children feel like that their parents are a burden, where in China and other countries, correct me if I'm wrong, it's a blessing.
• 7:33
  It feels good.
• 7:34
  They're excited.
• 7:35
  There's this beautiful connection and energy exchange.
• 7:38
  You get this wisdom and love from this elder who is beautiful and has fully cocooned his
• 7:43
  who's moving on to the next dimension, if you will.
• 7:45
  And so love is flowing more through them.
• 7:48
  But here in America, it seems like the dying parent is mad and angry and the kid's mad.
• 7:55
  Not all the times, but my...
• 7:59
  My uncle owns a funeral home.
• 8:00
  He owns a couple elderly care homes.
• 8:03
  He also owns a golf course.
• 8:04
  So I've gotten to like work in those environments.
• 8:07
  Actually, I started my company.
• 8:09
  Listen to this.
• 8:09
  This is a funny story.
• 8:11
  I started my company because I couldn't afford an office.
• 8:14
  And my wife was like, get out.
• 8:17
  Like you are too much.
• 8:18
  You know, I think we can share that our entrepreneurial side.
• 8:21
  So my uncle, bless him, allowed me to take like three rooms in the upper section of his funeral home.
• 8:30
  So I was literally pitching health.
• 8:32
  That's where I was training doctors.
• 8:33
  This is where Health Centers of the Future started at the top of a funeral home.
• 8:37
  I could smell the embalming fluid.
• 8:39
  I heard the people crying downstairs below.
• 8:41
  It was a horrible place to work.
• 8:44
  So thankful I got out of there.
• 8:45
  I was there for about three years.
• 8:46
  Oh, my gosh.
• 8:47
  And so I got to see these families.
• 8:49
  I got to see these transitions.
• 8:50
  The elderly care home was across the road.
• 8:54
  And, you know, I visited.
• 8:56
  I worked in one.
• 8:57
  So this is my life experience, that there's this massive disconnection.
• 9:01
  And it's beautiful for you to share that.
• 9:04
  Yeah.
• 9:05
  Like our society has this ideology, right?
• 9:08
  Like we are a capitalist country.
• 9:11
  versus granted China is a communist country, but Chinese people were very prideful of who we are, and what we become.
• 9:21
  And the reason why we got to where we are all thanks to our parents, all thanks to our grandparents and
• 9:28
  Even today when we all have children and it's really hard and difficult to ask the grandma and the grandpa to watch our kids because a lot of them are like, well, why should I?
• 9:39
  I'll come visit, but I can't watch your kids.
• 9:42
  Like you can pay me or fly me out.
• 9:45
  Then I'll watch them like pay.
• 9:47
  personal experience.
• 9:50
  And when it comes to my side, it's a little different, even though my parents are still working, but they're willing to sacrifice those working days and watch the kids for me.
• 10:01
  I grew up with my grandparents because my parents had to work.
• 10:05
  And those were my parents.
• 10:07
  All of my Chinese friends all grew up with our grandparents.
• 10:11
  We learned a lot from them.
• 10:13
  The
• 10:13
  There's this one saying in Chinese, it's called, like, 姜还是老的辣, meaning the ginger, it's always the older one that's really spicy.
• 10:23
  They're the most knowledgeable.
• 10:25
  We gain our wisdom from them.
• 10:27
  There's a lot of stories and there's a lot of learnings that we can gain from them.
• 10:33
  And it's unfortunately, that is a lost piece, especially here in our society today.
• 10:38
  It's so, so sad.
• 10:39
  We don't have our elders and our teachers anymore.
• 10:43
  And even the human, the language, our human language, but specifically English, is far less in depth.
• 10:51
  Like when you speak Chinese, it's like an art, right?
• 10:54
  Yes.
• 10:54
  It has this imagery.
• 10:55
  It has this depth.
• 10:56
  It has this spiritual energy aspect to it.
• 11:02
  And we're just like, you know.
• 11:04
  Hello.
• 11:05
  Yeah, it's not the most powerful language in the world, let's say that.
• 11:09
  And a lot of these ancient cultures, Chinese, holy cow, like we've been around for like 250 years.
• 11:16
  China, how many thousands of years?
• 11:19
  I think it's...
• 11:20
  Before Christ, I want to say.
• 11:22
  Oh, yeah, for sure.
• 11:23
  Yeah.
• 11:23
  We're talking thousands of years.
• 11:25
  Yeah.
• 11:26
  And it's still like some got lost.
• 11:28
  But in school, we still emphasize these four word characters.
• 11:33
  Those are poems.
• 11:35
  And the way how we describe things is very poetic and very artistic.
• 11:39
  The way how people articulate things, it's different.
• 11:43
  And each words have multiple different meanings versus, you know, our language is very bare minimal and it's just very simple.
• 11:52
  I know this is kind of off the health topic, but I'm interested.
• 11:55
  You lived in a communist country.
• 11:56
  Did it suck?
• 11:57
  Absolutely not.
• 11:58
  I had a fantastic childhood.
• 12:01
  So in America, everyone's like, oh, communist country.
• 12:03
  This is kind of controversial, right?
• 12:05
  It is.
• 12:06
  So the one thing I do have to say is it's very censored.
• 12:11
  That's for sure.
• 12:13
  You're not allowed to talk badly about the president.
• 12:16
  You're not allowed to talk badly about the Communist Party.
• 12:20
  That's also a big thing.
• 12:22
  If you do, they will make you disappear.
• 12:24
  If you're one of those very verbal person out there who,
• 12:28
  Good thing you live here.
• 12:29
  I know.
• 12:30
  You'll be gone.
• 12:31
  And then, for example, you know, we're very open about who we like, who we don't like.
• 12:36
  We bash on different parties all the time on social media and people get into these political arguments.
• 12:42
  Don't even think about it in China.
• 12:45
  It is not allowed.
• 12:47
  You are not allowed to say anything.
• 12:48
  And when we were in school, everybody had to wear uniforms, whether it's public school, private school.
• 12:53
  We all had our own uniform Monday through Friday all day long.
• 12:57
  No exceptions.
• 12:58
  If you didn't have your uniform, you were sent home.
• 13:01
  And we had this little I don't know if you've ever seen it.
• 13:04
  The little red scarf.
• 13:06
  Yeah.
• 13:06
  Yeah.
• 13:06
  Yeah.
• 13:07
  They're cute.
• 13:08
  That is a symbol of communist.
• 13:11
  And by the time we get, I didn't go into like middle school when I was there.
• 13:15
  But by the time we go into middle school and high school, you actually had to join the communist club there.
• 13:21
  You had to pay money for the Communist Party.
• 13:24
  And you learn about what's so great about the President Mao who created the Communist Party.
• 13:30
  And they do bash on our country a lot.
• 13:34
  Oh, really?
• 13:35
  Yeah, I just went back recently and they were talking about, you know, our president and a lot of the stuff that they're saying.
• 13:44
  And I was like...
• 13:45
  That is not true.
• 13:47
  That is not what happened.
• 13:48
  And I had to tell my friends, no, this is not what's happening in America.
• 13:53
  And they're like, oh, my God, your city, there's shootings every day, everywhere.
• 13:57
  And I'm like, no, it's not.
• 14:00
  It's like a war zone.
• 14:01
  I'm like, no, it's not.
• 14:03
  You're only seeing the worst.
• 14:04
  And they're exaggerating it is the mass media.
• 14:07
  They're trying to show complete control media, complete control.
• 14:11
  You can't.
• 14:12
  We're like probably 80 percent here, I would say.
• 14:14
  Yeah.
• 14:15
  And then even WeChat.
• 14:16
  Conservatively.
• 14:17
  I know.
• 14:18
  I have WeChat too.
• 14:19
  I'm not allowed to say anything on there.
• 14:21
  So WeChat is?
• 14:23
  It's a Chinese WhatsApp.
• 14:25
  WhatsApp.
• 14:25
  Except the government has full control of it.
• 14:27
  Oh my gosh.
• 14:28
  Yeah.
• 14:28
  So there is programming that's happening.
• 14:30
  Yes, absolutely.
• 14:31
  Yeah.
• 14:32
  But right now, like the newer generation, like my age, we're in our 30s.
• 14:39
  We're kind of seeing the other side of things, but everyone's just not saying anything about it.
• 14:46
  Because it's just not.
• 14:46
  You just can't.
• 14:47
  You want to stay alive.
• 14:48
  Exactly.
• 14:49
  So you're in America.
• 14:50
  If you'd say something bad, could you get taken out here?
• 14:53
  I don't know if you saw the news, but one of our, I forget if she was the mayor, she did from Arcadia, like in our city back home in L.A. or L.A. She's one part of the L.A. County.
• 15:06
  She didn't even say anything bad in particular, but she said something and then she kind of got taken out by the U.S. government.
• 15:15
  So there is communications that are likely happening between China and the U.S.
• 15:21
  There's always collaboration at these levels.
• 15:23
  And it's funny.
• 15:24
  You hear like Trudeau say good things from America about China and the Communist Party.
• 15:30
  And I think there's some stuff that's trended on social media.
• 15:33
  I don't...
• 15:34
  I'm on social media as non-toxic dad, but I don't consume much of it.
• 15:38
  Right.
• 15:38
  Because I'm just trying to always protect my heart and my mind because everything goes in.
• 15:42
  It's like toxicity, too.
• 15:43
  It's probably one of the worst toxins, what you put into your mind.
• 15:46
  But even Trump saying nice things about China.
• 15:49
  Because he's trying to make the deals.
• 15:51
  Yeah.
• 15:51
  Because he knows China produces the goods at the lowest price that no one can beat as much as he wants to compete with.
• 15:59
  Honestly, it's near impossible.
• 16:01
  The advancement that China currently has right now, it's insane.
• 16:04
  When I went back, every single corner of the entire sky of China, cameras everywhere.
• 16:13
  No matter what corner of the city you're at, there are cameras watching you.
• 16:18
  So there's no theft, which is great.
• 16:21
  Absolutely super safe, which is also another great thing.
• 16:24
  But there is no freedom.
• 16:27
  There is...
• 16:28
  censorship everywhere all around you, you kind of
• 16:33
  give up one part right to receive the other.
• 16:35
  And that's what the communist party says.
• 16:37
  You you'll wind up like America if we don't have all these controls.
• 16:41
  This is what, I mean, they, I mean, there's how many fantasy books are written about this.
• 16:46
  Like we have the ones in power we control, we make you safe.
• 16:50
  There's, I don't know.
• 16:51
  There's so many TV shows and movies.
• 16:53
  I can't think of them right now because I'm not a memorizer of, of TV and I don't watch much, but all these, all the societies say that, right?
• 17:01
  Yeah.
• 17:02
  Um,
• 17:02
  You can't even be an entrepreneur there without having to almost bribe the government and make sure you're on the good side of the government.
• 17:11
  Say that again?
• 17:12
  So being an entrepreneur out there.
• 17:13
  Oh, yeah.
• 17:14
  Yeah, owning your own business out there.
• 17:16
  If you're one of those that's making a lot of money, they're coming.
• 17:20
  They're coming.
• 17:20
  They're coming to get you.
• 17:22
  So you have to partner with them.
• 17:23
  You have to partner with them.
• 17:25
  You can't.
• 17:25
  Give them a piece of the pie.
• 17:26
  Absolutely.
• 17:27
  Otherwise, they're going to come back with telling you, you need to pay this taxes.
• 17:30
  You need to pay that taxes that didn't exist.
• 17:33
  They will just make it up.
• 17:34
  If you don't want to pay, jail.
• 17:36
  Yeah, show me the money, show me the data, whatever you're collecting.
• 17:39
  Yeah.
• 17:40
  I was supposed to go to an exhibition in October to Shanghai, a huge one that's hosted by China.
• 17:47
  And then part of the group is an agency that helps source and find cool new findings of health and wellness products to bring it into the China market.
• 17:57
  And then they have a green light.
• 17:59
  The CEO of the company somehow, for some random reason, now it's got sent to jail.
• 18:05
  Oh, my gosh.
• 18:06
  Yeah.
• 18:06
  It's like that.
• 18:08
  That's interesting.
• 18:09
  But you maintain some of those ancient connected ways despite communism, despite control.
• 18:19
  They're still loving, which is Chinese culture, right?
• 18:22
  Yeah.
• 18:22
  It's ancient culture, energy, medicine.
• 18:25
  All of it relates around human relationship.
• 18:29
  Chi, all of that maintained, even though the opposite is happening, this control.
• 18:36
  So I know this, again, off topic, but I'm interested because you know a lot about this.
• 18:40
  And I don't know anyone else who knows.
• 18:42
  The AI advancements there, are they doing like super crazy things?
• 18:46
  Oh, it's insane, the AI advancement.
• 18:49
  So I don't know if you heard of, I'm sure you know this app called Shein, S-H-E-I-N.
• 18:55
  I know the Toxic Clothing Company.
• 18:57
  Yes.
• 18:57
  That's all I know.
• 18:58
  So a lot of their clothing are actually made and produced by robots.
• 19:04
  piece by piece and they actually sell it.
• 19:06
  That's the reason why the turnover rate, it's so fast for them.
• 19:10
  The same day that you place an order with their company is the same day that that robot is pushing out your product.
• 19:17
  So it's like they're not holding inventory.
• 19:19
  They're making it with robots.
• 19:21
  Yeah.
• 19:22
  Who can't get sick from the toxic chemicals that the clothing's made of, the heavy metals.
• 19:27
  Correct.
• 19:28
  The dyes.
• 19:29
  Yeah.
• 19:29
  Like, you know, no claims.
• 19:32
  So in this big AI, communist, do people get all kinds of cash to be able to survive?
• 19:39
  Like, how do you survive if robotics and AI are so advanced over there?
• 19:44
  So right now there is another issue where I don't know if you guys remember, but when when my mom and my dad were getting married and having kids, there was a rule saying one child only.
• 19:58
  Before in China, you were able to have as many children as you want.
• 20:02
  So my grandma's generation, they had five, six kids, right?
• 20:06
  When it came to my mom's generation, because it was overly populated and there was famine that happened, China decided to regulate.
• 20:14
  So it became one child only.
• 20:16
  That is starting to collapse.
• 20:19
  They're seeing the collapse because there's more...
• 20:22
  seniors and less people and less children to be able to handle and take care of all these seniors that they are currently having.
• 20:30
  And the workforce is actually decreasing dramatically.
• 20:34
  It's a huge number of decrease.
• 20:37
  And there's articles out there showing that.
• 20:41
  The actual Chinese population is not what they're reporting right now.
• 20:46
  A lot of them are estimating it's kind of like it's almost close to the U.S. population.
• 20:51
  I don't know how true that is.
• 20:53
  So what they're currently doing with a lot of the manufacturing companies is utilizing AI advancements, utilizing robots to now work in the warehouses cheaper.
• 21:03
  It's one-time investment cost.
• 21:05
  And they don't have to constantly pay the employees much because there's no more employment.
• 21:10
  Right.
• 21:11
  And then so that's another way for them to combat and to up that productivity and that production route.
• 21:17
  So that's interesting.
• 21:21
  So, I mean, that's pushing the advancement.
• 21:23
  But I think global population decline is happening.
• 21:26
  Everywhere.
• 21:27
  Everywhere.
• 21:27
  Yeah.
• 21:27
  Some people predict that the human race is moving towards extinction.
• 21:32
  Yeah.
• 21:32
  At the rate.
• 21:33
  I mean, I don't even know.
• 21:34
  You just got goosebumps.
• 21:35
  Yeah.
• 21:35
  Yeah, 50% of the biodiversity on this planet has decreased over the last, you know, I'm not an expert in this area, but it's a lot.
• 21:43
  So we're becoming less and less fertile, the biodiversity of the planet.
• 21:48
  That's why I do what I do, right?
• 21:50
  It's like, man, we need to reconnect to nature.
• 21:52
  It's like we're not separate from it.
• 21:55
  This antibiosis, this anti-life movement with Triclosan and from Triclosan in your hand soap to antibiotics to glyphosate, which is a registered antibiotic.
• 22:05
  We're literally wiping out biosis life everywhere.
• 22:08
  Yeah.
• 22:09
  And that's affecting our population.
• 22:11
  It's affecting our biodiversity.
• 22:12
  And what's biodiversity?
• 22:13
  It's intelligence.
• 22:15
  We're wiping out the intelligence.
• 22:18
  The planet will rebirth.
• 22:20
  You know, with or without us.
• 22:22
  Right.
• 22:22
  You can't kill something that has the patience of millions of years.
• 22:26
  Exactly.
• 22:26
  Think about it.
• 22:27
  Yeah.
• 22:27
  Like an oxalotl.
• 22:28
  Yeah.
• 22:29
  It's a prehistoric little animal.
• 22:30
  It's still here.
• 22:31
  Yeah.
• 22:32
  It will.
• 22:33
  Certain things will survive.
• 22:34
  Other things will survive.
• 22:36
  die and re-bloom into something else, just like your bio-bloom, it's going to re-bloom into something else.
• 22:42
  So I love that we got to talk about China.
• 22:45
  Like, I've learned so much.
• 22:46
  That was actually really fun.
• 22:48
  And I think everyone listening will find that super interesting.
• 22:50
  It's an absolutely great place for all of Americans, especially, to go visit, because China is a very welcoming country.
• 22:59
  We love to host, especially the north part.
• 23:02
  Remember, north part.
• 23:03
  North part.
• 23:03
  Dallian.
• 23:05
  My hometown.
• 23:06
  So you can kind of imagine my hometown almost as a little ocean side, Monterey Park, Monterey Bay area, Northern California, small little fisherman town, but also like with big, tall buildings, with the influence of the French designs and a lot of European architecture that's there.
• 23:25
  Lots of plazas there.
• 23:28
  And you get that home, that welcoming feeling.
• 23:30
  They love foreigners, especially Americans and,
• 23:33
  They love them.
• 23:34
  Like when I brought my husband back, every single grandmas and grandpas are like just taking photos of him and my kids and giving them free food.
• 23:43
  Try this, try that.
• 23:44
  It's a very fun place to be.
• 23:47
  And it's also a cool place to see history.
• 23:50
  There's a lot of landscape.
• 23:51
  There's a lot of history behind China that you don't get to see here.
• 23:55
  Yeah, it's so rich.
• 23:56
  It's so beautiful.
• 23:57
  So when I go to China with my kids, because we homeschool, that's part of our, we're going to start next year.
• 24:02
  Yes.
• 24:02
  I'm a Italian citizen, so I have my Italian passport.
• 24:05
  So do my kids.
• 24:06
  We're going to do Italy next year and France, France, probably London.
• 24:12
  And then I definitely want to do Japan.
• 24:14
  I got friends now in Japan.
• 24:15
  Now I have friends that have- In China.
• 24:17
  In China.
• 24:17
  You can come stay at my house.
• 24:19
  So I think that's where we learn about culture.
• 24:24
  And just to wrap up this section, and let's move into health a little bit deeper, is that we're so disconnected.
• 24:30
  We make imaginations.
• 24:32
  You know, you could—different philosophies, different books we'll talk about.
• 24:35
  We have these imaginations of what the people are like, what the government are like.
• 24:39
  I guess we're kind of nailing it when it comes to communism.
• 24:42
  But what people are like, what they believe, their culture—
• 24:47
  Man, it's when you experience, I don't know if it's the endogenetic frequency of another culture, it just fills your heart.
• 24:56
  It brings you to a place of like almost experiential joy and respect and reverence for other human beings.
• 25:04
  And I think a lot of that's been lost in our little bubbles in our four walls and big homes and
• 25:11
  Because we think we're the best country.
• 25:12
  We don't need to go anywhere.
• 25:14
  If you talk to a lot of the Americans, the one thing that they'll say is, oh, I've never gone out of my country before.
• 25:20
  It's like, why not?
• 25:21
  You cannot have a preconceived judgment opinion of another culture, another country, another place if you yourself haven't been there.
• 25:30
  That's something I always say.
• 25:31
  I cannot judge another person's culture, beliefs, or whatever they're from if I myself have never experienced what they've experienced.
• 25:40
  Yeah, it's the right way to do things.
• 25:42
  Yeah.
• 25:42
  Right.
• 25:42
  I long to be disrupted.
• 25:44
  I long to have my ideologies and straw men ripped down because of how I was raised, my belief structures, my prejudices.
• 25:54
  I just want it all wiped out.
• 25:55
  I want to just immerse myself around other human souls and feel them and see who they are.
• 26:02
  And I know that I've said this on our little walk when we were in Park City, that you're a beautiful soul.
• 26:06
  You have a great mission.
• 26:08
  And I want to talk more about what you're doing in the health space to help people.
• 26:13
  So what's your passions and with your passion when it comes to this little bubble we call functional medicine and peptides?
• 26:20
  And where does that passion come from?
• 26:22
  Yeah.
• 26:23
  So two parts of this story.
• 26:27
  I came from, like none of my parents, none of my family went to college, right?
• 26:32
  And then my whole life, my goal was to become a trauma surgeon.
• 26:37
  That excited me, it gave me dopamine.
• 26:39
  I didn't realize it until later on in life that was because I had ADHD.
• 26:43
  A lot of people, a lot of doctors that have ADHDs tend to be trauma surgeons, ER doctors.
• 26:50
  Because of that pace, that rush, all of that.
• 26:53
  You like problems.
• 26:55
  I love problems.
• 26:56
  Who doesn't?
• 26:57
  I'm so good at solving it just because that moment I am just so clear and so focused.
• 27:02
  And I can do things more calmly compared to, you know, someone who might not be neurodivergent.
• 27:07
  Yeah, my wife, and I call it neurodivergent.
• 27:09
  So if there's not an emergency, I'm not interested.
• 27:11
  Yeah.
• 27:12
  Right?
• 27:12
  If she's like, you show up in like massive ways when there's emergency.
• 27:16
  If there's not an emergency, it's not exciting and it doesn't need my attention.
• 27:20
  Exactly.
• 27:21
  You can handle it.
• 27:22
  Yeah, you can handle it.
• 27:23
  Like, it's not a big deal.
• 27:24
  It's like, that's not even a problem.
• 27:25
  But if something bad happens, this amazing focus and calm comes over.
• 27:30
  My wife's like, when my wife was giving birth, all three, she says I'm like the super husband of all doulas when it comes to our home births.
• 27:41
  I am fully locked in, in the tub, rubbing whatever she wants, just weeping and crying along with her, feeling the energy.
• 27:49
  I feel like...
• 27:51
  I mean, I've never experienced the beauty and the gift that women have, which is just extraordinary.
• 27:57
  It's off the chains, but even getting a taste of that energy just because it's this massive undertaking.
• 28:04
  And I love.
• 28:05
  Yeah.
• 28:05
  So anyway.
• 28:05
  So powerful.
• 28:06
  So I'm jamming with you on the neurodivergent side of things.
• 28:10
  I would say that we're with each other on that.
• 28:13
  So continue.
• 28:15
  Yeah, so that – I got misdiagnosed when I was in college because of all the traumas that I had when I was a kid.
• 28:22
  They thought I was depressed and I had PTSD.
• 28:26
  So they wanted me to go see a psychiatrist to be treated as, you know, a depressant.
• 28:31
  And I'm like, no, that's not me.
• 28:34
  I am super bright.
• 28:35
  I'm a shining star.
• 28:36
  I'm not doing that.
• 28:37
  So –
• 28:38
  I kind of took it my own route and decided to do things my own way, thinking that I can do this.
• 28:44
  I can get into medical school, you know, no way.
• 28:48
  Like I could not concentrate for the life of me.
• 28:50
  And then one of my guy best friend, he was a EMT working on the ambulance.
• 28:57
  And I was like, that's kind of interesting.
• 28:59
  That's one step closer to what I want to do.
• 29:02
  And I get to see the trauma side and I get to be in the ER with the doctors, with the nurses.
• 29:08
  Right.
• 29:09
  So I went for that route and then I fell in love with being a medic, a paramedic for the fire department.
• 29:15
  So then that became my goal.
• 29:16
  I wanted to be a firefighter and then I wanted to do.
• 29:20
  the first responders job to be the first person on scene to be that first person that this person sees that they see a hope they see a sign of hope that help is on the way and i did it so damn well i was i loved my job
• 29:39
  Until this day, I still remember all of the patients that I've saved.
• 29:43
  The first call I've had being a full-time EMT was at a tire shop.
• 29:49
  The worker actually over-pumped the tire.
• 29:52
  I didn't even know that this could happen to a tire.
• 29:55
  It popped and it blew up on his face.
• 29:58
  So his entire jawline all the way up to his face was just completely ripped open, including his skulls were cut in half.
• 30:07
  And he was wiggling and moving it.
• 30:09
  And I was just fascinated.
• 30:10
  Most people would have fainted.
• 30:11
  Yeah.
• 30:12
  I was like.
• 30:13
  Twitching.
• 30:14
  What do you need?
• 30:14
  How can I help you?
• 30:16
  And just talking to the medics and the fire guys, what can I do?
• 30:19
  How can I save him?
• 30:20
  I just remember that and sending him to the hospital and getting to see the trauma surgeons do their job.
• 30:26
  They're amazing trauma surgeons.
• 30:28
  Absolutely.
• 30:29
  And we worked with a level one trauma surgeon center back home where I'm from.
• 30:34
  I loved it.
• 30:35
  And that was my passion.
• 30:36
  And that was my drive.
• 30:38
  And I also saw the ugly side of it, where the sick constantly gets sick.
• 30:44
  And it's the same people that are calling the 911 services, the ones that are constantly struggling mentally.
• 30:51
  Every single time we sent them into the hospital, they're held there for 72 hours, then transferred to a behavioral hospital,
• 30:58
  get released, the next week they're calling again.
• 31:01
  Nothing's being done.
• 31:03
  Nothing has changed.
• 31:04
  And nothing's helping.
• 31:06
  The chronically ill. Or they're put on the streets.
• 31:08
  Yeah.
• 31:09
  Yeah.
• 31:09
  All of them.
• 31:10
  The ones that are calling, a lot of the homeless, when they call, nothing's being done for them.
• 31:15
  They just get a hot meal and then they get sent back to the streets again.
• 31:19
  And most of them are veterans, which is really sad to see.
• 31:23
  And the other one, the other group would be the elderly, the chronically ill, the ones that's constantly having diabetic issues, high blood pressures, high cholesterols.
• 31:33
  Those are all external environments, right?
• 31:35
  A lot of them can be changed by changing your diet, by changing, you know, slight things here and there in the work that we do and in the areas that you're with, in the surroundings that you're with.
• 31:49
  Yeah.
• 31:50
  Maybe don't eat that McDonald's.
• 31:52
  McDonald's is $15.
• 31:54
  You can literally go buy groceries for that exact same amount of money.
• 31:58
  Or you can buy more grass-fed burger than you could for McDonald's.
• 32:01
  Exactly.
• 32:02
  Yeah.
• 32:02
  People don't realize that.
• 32:03
  How many videos out there?
• 32:04
  I mean, I have started them.
• 32:06
  I'm like, everyone else has already done them.
• 32:07
  But for $15, you know how much good, healthy food?
• 32:12
  Even the overpriced food in America, which is overpriced, if you go to other countries.
• 32:17
  Yeah.
• 32:17
  And then so that's when I realized there is a systemic health care problem and a systemic health care issue.
• 32:26
  And the first responders, we work on 24 hour shifts.
• 32:30
  And if somebody calls out them, a lot of times is mandatory overtime.
• 32:34
  Then we're stuck for 48 hours, for 72 hours.
• 32:37
  The calls are randomized.
• 32:39
  You don't know when someone's getting sick.
• 32:49
  Can you just imagine like what your heart's doing at that?
• 32:52
  And then your serotonin is going up.
• 32:56
  Everything is going up.
• 32:57
  And then your stressor level is going up.
• 33:00
  I've – throughout my seven years of working in the emergency service system, I've lost well over five friends, five firefighters that I've known like closely to heart attacks, to strokes, and to heart attacks.
• 33:14
  And those were all preventable had their stress level came down.
• 33:19
  And unfortunately, I lost my own very best friend due to mental health and due to mental illnesses.
• 33:26
  It's really sad to see, but mental health, it's still one of the biggest issues and the biggest problems that we're currently facing, not just here in America anymore.
• 33:37
  It's all over the world.
• 33:39
  China used to not believe in it.
• 33:40
  I'm looping back to China because we...
• 33:44
  In our society, the craziest thing is if you're walking on the streets, you won't even see someone that's crippled.
• 33:52
  You won't see an autistic kid.
• 33:54
  You won't see anyone that, you know, is not of the norm.
• 34:00
  They're tucked away.
• 34:01
  They're hidden.
• 34:02
  The society don't want people to see that side of things.
• 34:07
  So everything's...
• 34:09
  Perfect.
• 34:09
  Perfect.
• 34:10
  The portrayal of everything is perfect.
• 34:12
  These people are locked in asylum homes.
• 34:14
  Like even the families don't really go visit them because they're considered abnormal.
• 34:19
  They're not.
• 34:19
  They don't belong in the society.
• 34:20
  They need to be locked away and put away, which is really sad.
• 34:23
  But slowly now, more and more non-functional or functional health hospitals are coming out.
• 34:31
  Longevity clinics, wellness clinics are coming out in China with, of course, the help of Chinese government.
• 34:38
  Now, there is a child pediatric psychiatry system.
• 34:44
  There is a mental health department.
• 34:46
  They are recognizing depression, mental illnesses, anxiety as a problem now.
• 34:53
  So that's a good thing.
• 34:54
  Because they're not going to have anyone on the streets because everyone's suffering from it so much.
• 34:57
  They better fix the problem.
• 34:58
  Exactly.
• 34:59
  It becomes such a big problem that it's affecting probably the function of the country.
• 35:03
  Yeah, so I think losing my best friend to such a crazy way where the crazy story is I fought with her over stupid shoes.
• 35:16
  She was three months away from graduating nursing school.
• 35:20
  And our goal was to start an IV treatment for emergency workers after they got off of work.
• 35:28
  They can come to our IV bar.
• 35:30
  Mm-hmm.
• 35:30
  And get treatments at a really good discount because we're just all EMS people trying to help each other out, right?
• 35:38
  And you're all underpaid.
• 35:39
  We're all underpaid.
• 35:40
  Like, that's the crazy part.
• 35:42
  Like, I don't even know all these tax dollars.
• 35:44
  Where is it going?
• 35:45
  It should go to the...
• 35:48
  Police officers, the sheriffs, the firefighters, the paramedics, and the EMT workers.
• 35:54
  Like, none of us are actually truly getting paid because saving a life is priceless.
• 36:00
  Every single one of these people put their lives on the front line to save our family.
• 36:07
  That is something I don't think a normal person can comprehend.
• 36:11
  Every single day when we get a call, we don't know what's waiting for us.
• 36:17
  A lot of the times, the police officers actually have to go into the scene to clear it before the fire department, before the EMTs can actually go inside.
• 36:27
  And the police officers are the first ones to get hit by that danger.
• 36:32
  They're a father.
• 36:34
  They're a mother.
• 36:35
  They also have kids.
• 36:36
  They also have families.
• 36:38
  But they're willing to sacrifice their lives for ours because that's what they love doing.
• 36:44
  And then they know that that's a bigger job for them than others.
• 36:48
  you know, everything else.
• 36:50
  They're trying to save us.
• 36:51
  They're trying to save the world.
• 36:53
  So if I can just give a little bit back to them, if I can just help them raise their level up, raise their health level up, like I've done my job.
• 37:04
  That's beautiful.
• 37:04
  Well said.
• 37:06
  So you were in this crazy, stressful environment and
• 37:10
  I loved every second of it.
• 37:12
  Yeah, you did.
• 37:13
  I did.
• 37:13
  I absolutely loved it.
• 37:14
  Not everybody.
• 37:15
  I was that person at two in the morning when I was on the calls.
• 37:18
  I would be like, good morning, Captain.
• 37:21
  Yeah.
• 37:21
  I'm here.
• 37:23
  So when did you drop out of being an EMT?
• 37:27
  It was during COVID.
• 37:29
  Actually, that was during when everybody started getting pregnant.
• 37:33
  So I also was pregnant with my baby girl.
• 37:36
  I actually got accepted with LA County Fire Department.
• 37:40
  I had my medical exam day.
• 37:42
  I also had a pending tower day to go into the academy with my fellow EMT friends.
• 37:49
  But I did give up that dream because I wanted to build a family.
• 37:55
  I wanted to create a family.
• 37:57
  Yeah, but it's worth it.
• 37:59
  It's so worth it.
• 38:00
  But that was a neat dream and you had it.
• 38:02
  So it's like you achieved it.
• 38:03
  I did.
• 38:04
  Yeah.
• 38:04
  You were there and you're like, family.
• 38:07
  Family is more.
• 38:08
  I met your kids.
• 38:09
  So cute.
• 38:10
  They liked my wife more than they liked me.
• 38:12
  Of course.
• 38:13
  Of course.
• 38:14
  It's always the case.
• 38:16
  But yeah, beautiful family.
• 38:17
  You came out of that.
• 38:19
  You had some children.
• 38:21
  And what are you doing now?
• 38:23
  I actually started helping my parents with their distribution company.
• 38:30
  So you would like this.
• 38:31
  One of my goal in our distribution company is to disrupt the plastic, the waste that we're...
• 38:40
  Actually using and doing in this wholesale world, right?
• 38:44
  A lot of the toys have toxins inside We're actually one of the first distributors that started you like utilizing testings that was required by the US government Back then it wasn't a requirement.
• 38:58
  It was just great if you did it so we were the first ones to bring in non-toxic non lead toys for children and
• 39:07
  From China?
• 39:07
  From China.
• 39:08
  Oh, yeah.
• 39:09
  Yeah.
• 39:09
  The China connection works.
• 39:11
  Uh-huh.
• 39:11
  Our manufacturer have the highest standards out there.
• 39:15
  My mom goes back almost every month to make sure that we don't hire any children in the factory.
• 39:22
  Which can happen.
• 39:23
  Which does happen a lot of the times.
• 39:26
  And every single- I can see your mom like flipping out.
• 39:28
  Oh, yeah.
• 39:29
  She's like, what are you doing?
• 39:29
  She's like, what are you doing?
• 39:30
  Yeah.
• 39:31
  Every single one of our batch products gets tested like heavily.
• 39:35
  So Amazon has the highest standards.
• 39:38
  And then we all recognize this one testing company called CCT.
• 39:41
  And that's the company that we use.
• 39:43
  And my mom actually became really good friends with them.
• 39:46
  So every time she has something, she's like, test mine, test mine.
• 39:49
  And we also have like these organic bamboo fiber made bowls, utensils for children.
• 39:59
  It's really difficult to get people to understand why.
• 40:04
  The plastics, why, you know, these things are bad for you.
• 40:09
  And it's hard to push the organics, the bamboo fibers, the good material, the good quality products because of that price difference.
• 40:19
  Right.
• 40:20
  So now it's 10 cents versus a buck.
• 40:23
  Exactly.
• 40:23
  So now the battle is to get people to recognize that, to get them to understand that this is better for your health in the long run.
• 40:31
  The reason why these products are made specifically or in a different way, form, shape or, you know, another is because it's healthy for you.
• 40:41
  It's organic and it's made with natural ingredients.
• 40:44
  And that is one thing that I absolutely pride in ourselves with that.
• 40:48
  And I'm slowly like changing my mom's mindset as well.
• 40:51
  Yeah, so it's interesting to me.
• 40:53
  So your distribution company, sorry for interrupting.
• 40:55
  But I'm interested in this because you're a great person to ask these questions to.
• 41:00
  And I think everyone will really like this.
• 41:02
  So you distribute, you get stuff from China, and then I'll come in as a wholesaler.
• 41:09
  and want to resell your product on Amazon, like all these businesses get rich quick, find a distributor at a low price and then resell that product.
• 41:18
  So they're all selling the organic bamboo bowl.
• 41:21
  They're getting it from you.
• 41:23
  Correct.
• 41:23
  And there's a hundred people selling that.
• 41:26
  Yeah.
• 41:27
  So are you seeing that your more natural products, people are desiring those more or less over the time you've been in your distribution company?
• 41:37
  People are now desiring it more, more and more.
• 41:40
  So when we first started, there's different categories of things, right?
• 41:44
  We have toys.
• 41:44
  We have drinkwares.
• 41:45
  We have seasonal products.
• 41:47
  We have like trinkets, stuff like that.
• 41:50
  We also have flower things.
• 41:52
  In the beginning, nobody cared.
• 41:54
  And then as we started pushing more and more about the healthier side of things, I started – my mom – my mom, sorry.
• 42:03
  My mom created these cute little silicone purses.
• 42:07
  And it's silicone, so it's non-toxic.
• 42:10
  And it's bacteria-resistant.
• 42:13
  So that was my tagline when I went to trade shows and conferences.
• 42:16
  That's what I told people.
• 42:18
  My clients absolutely loved it.
• 42:20
  And it's also very demographic-based.
• 42:23
  The ones that are well-educated, the ones that lived in specific areas cared more about the environment than those that are not.
• 42:32
  The lower economic groups still don't care as much as the ones that are more about learning, education, education.
• 42:40
  Things like that.
• 42:41
  They want what's good for us.
• 42:43
  And then when we came out with our drink categories, initially it was just plastic, right?
• 42:47
  Plastic cups is cheap and then it's still cute.
• 42:50
  Then we got into glass.
• 42:52
  My mom was actually the first one to bring out glass tumblers that were good for you because it's made of glass and there's no toxin and stuff like that.
• 43:00
  Now, I have one of those glass tumblers.
• 43:02
  People didn't buy into it.
• 43:04
  And then she had to close out and then sell it out very cheap.
• 43:08
  And now recently, so she started that like three years ago.
• 43:11
  And she was like, this isn't it.
• 43:12
  I was like, mom, you just have to keep going, keep pushing, keep pushing.
• 43:16
  And then unfortunately, she closed it out.
• 43:18
  But now people are asking for it.
• 43:20
  And then people are asking for stainless steel because it's better for us.
• 43:24
  And now they're asking for copper.
• 43:26
  Copper is really expensive.
• 43:28
  So we're trying to figure out a way to lower the price and the cost.
• 43:32
  to bring out the copper drinkwares for people.
• 43:34
  Well, let's talk about that.
• 43:35
  If you can source a good copper, I was trying to get US made copper.
• 43:40
  But man, when I do these copper videos, I mean, and it's, again, it's ancient.
• 43:46
  I'll probably say this wrong.
• 43:47
  You can correct me, everybody.
• 43:49
  That's Ayurvedic medicine.
• 43:51
  Ayurvedic, I always,
• 43:54
  You know, I'm neurodivergent.
• 43:56
  These things don't matter to me for some reason.
• 43:59
  I try, you know, I try.
• 44:01
  Don't judge me.
• 44:02
  We dumbified our words.
• 44:03
  Yeah.
• 44:03
  So people can understand it better.
• 44:05
  Yeah, there you go.
• 44:06
  It sounds good.
• 44:08
  So, but there's so much with copper and the storage and the energy associated with it, the antimicrobial effect.
• 44:16
  Like I do tons of videos on this.
• 44:24
  does it right it's 100% copper just like anything else when it comes to like the avocado oil if you can cut suppliers do that like I have friends that are in importing and exporting and and how things and labels get changed and things get cut like it's a dirty business and it all comes down to money right so your parents are in that they get products and they say they're not toxic and they are they say it's copper and it's not it's just you it's really interesting because it comes down to uh making money like it's
• 44:51
  So when you see online, right, specifically when you see a copper product that's for sale for really cheap, it's a layer of copper.
• 45:02
  Around it.
• 45:03
  Yeah.
• 45:03
  The inside, it's still stainless steel.
• 45:06
  Don't buy that.
• 45:06
  No.
• 45:07
  When it's full copper, the price of that one cup is...
• 45:13
  It's probably the same.
• 45:14
  Like, okay, for example, you see a copper cup for sale for 20 bucks.
• 45:18
  That is definitely a layer of copper.
• 45:21
  And then when you see a copper, like a true copper cup for sale for $60, it's a little
• 45:26
  you're probably getting true authentic real copper.
• 45:29
  And then there is another way to ask them also is the tests.
• 45:33
  China regulates pretty heavily now, especially for exporters in China.
• 45:39
  Before we get out of the Chinese custom, we do have to present all of our testing reports because my mom really tried to do everything legal, like the right way, making sure that our products are great.
• 45:50
  Not paying someone off.
• 45:51
  No, we don't do that.
• 45:53
  I'm teasing.
• 45:53
  No, our name has been on the, what are they?
• 45:59
  They call the CPBs.
• 46:00
  CBP people.
• 46:03
  They're the ones that check everything.
• 46:05
  They've came to our warehouse, I want to say, at least 10 times now.
• 46:09
  And I know them now personally and they know us.
• 46:12
  The only reason why we've never gotten fined or our company has never gotten shut down is because we passed every single test.
• 46:20
  If we didn't pass a test, they give us a reason why and we fix it and we correct it immediately.
• 46:25
  We don't do the shady stuff because I don't.
• 46:29
  think that's a right way of doing business it's all about authenticity it's all about being true to yourself and my mom has instilled that in me for a really long time like you do bad karma's gonna come and get you
• 46:42
  Yeah, integrity is one of those things that it's love.
• 46:46
  You can give all you can.
• 46:47
  You're going to get it back, right?
• 46:48
  Integrity, you're going to get so much of it, and it'll wear out your soul.
• 46:52
  Yeah.
• 46:53
  One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is full integrity no matter what.
• 46:57
  And you know me.
• 47:00
  I'm completely sold out.
• 47:01
  It's just not worth it.
• 47:02
  If it's not helping humanity, what are we doing?
• 47:05
  Exactly.
• 47:05
  Oh, wow.
• 47:06
  So you can have a nicer car?
• 47:08
  So what?
• 47:09
  Who cares?
• 47:10
  It's just materialistic.
• 47:11
  I still drive a beat up Prius.
• 47:13
  Sometimes I do get embarrassed by it, like when I have to go to a meeting or something.
• 47:16
  Oh, you're in L.A.
• 47:17
  I know.
• 47:17
  I mean.
• 47:18
  But like at the same time, I'm proud of my Prius.
• 47:21
  My Prius has been with me for over 10 years.
• 47:24
  She still drives fine and she saves on gas and she's hybrid.
• 47:28
  And she's off gas.
• 47:30
  Yeah, I love her.
• 47:31
  And then a lot of people try to buy her off of me.
• 47:33
  I'm like, no.
• 47:34
  No, a new Prius will toxify you.
• 47:36
  Exactly.
• 47:36
  An old Prius is off-gassed.
• 47:37
  Yeah.
• 47:37
  Maybe a little EMF, maybe less.
• 47:39
  Yeah.
• 47:39
  Who knows?
• 47:40
  It depends.
• 47:40
  Regular engines put off tons of magnetic field.
• 47:43
  Copper price.
• 47:44
  So when someone's selling you a copper product that's 60 bucks, are they making a ton of margin?
• 47:49
  They are.
• 47:50
  Unfortunately, they are.
• 47:51
  They still are?
• 47:52
  A lot.
• 47:53
  Okay.
• 47:53
  Like even...
• 47:55
  So right now, Amazon is getting pretty competitive now with pricing, especially for squishies.
• 47:59
  Most of the squishy product that you see online, the least amount of margin that a Chinese company is making is about 10% U.S. dollar.
• 48:10
  They don't care because they're a manufacturer, right?
• 48:14
  So they just market up 10%?
• 48:16
  Only 10%.
• 48:16
  Oh, my gosh.
• 48:17
  But you have to understand that $1 is six times Chinese money, yuan.
• 48:22
  One of our dollar is six yuan to them.
• 48:25
  That's a lot of margin.
• 48:27
  That's why it's so inexplicable.
• 48:29
  That's why.
• 48:30
  And that's why we try to control the U.S. dollar so much because we can get things cheap.
• 48:35
  Yeah, and then the difference between them and us is their shipping, China's shipping, is insanely cheap.
• 48:44
  Individual packages can be shipped out from one city to another for as little as $2.
• 48:49
  $2, US dollars.
• 48:51
  Can you imagine shipping your book for $2 and that client gets it the next day?
• 48:57
  Next day.
• 48:59
  Uh-huh.
• 49:00
  It's insane.
• 49:00
  That's a saver rate on that book.
• 49:02
  It'll be like four days.
• 49:03
  Yeah.
• 49:04
  Yeah.
• 49:04
  And it will be like eight dollars.
• 49:06
  Yeah.
• 49:06
  Well, not that expensive for a book, but it's going to be expensive.
• 49:09
  But like an over we do some we do shipping and we do second day.
• 49:17
  And the like the cheapest we can do that for is like 12 bucks in an envelope.
• 49:22
  Yeah.
• 49:23
  Right.
• 49:23
  It's still pretty expensive.
• 49:24
  That's that's pretty cheap.
• 49:26
  Well, we have really good.
• 49:27
  Yeah, that's probably the cheapest I've ever.
• 49:29
  If you need any fulfillment, you know, it's something I've been doing for 20 years.
• 49:33
  Oh, my gosh.
• 49:33
  I'm 18, so that's why I can do that.
• 49:36
  Yeah.
• 49:37
  Speaking of which, you are now, you've launched your new company, BioBloom, because peptides have helped your grandparents, your friends, you're in the health space, you're in LA, and is the, let's talk a little bit about peptides before we wrap up the show.
• 49:53
  So I first discovered peptides a little over now.
• 49:58
  I'm still, I still consider myself a newbie.
• 50:01
  Once I'm going to stop, I'm going to ask you one more question at the end about China.
• 50:05
  So everyone's wait for that.
• 50:08
  So if you're still listening, I have another really cool question to ask about China.
• 50:11
  So I still like to consider myself a newbie and I'm learning so much more every single day about peptides.
• 50:18
  Um,
• 50:19
  Honestly, peptides saved my immune system, my autoimmune system.
• 50:26
  Peptides actually saved my dad who lives in China.
• 50:30
  He had cancer, a stomach cancer, stage four, back in 08.
• 50:35
  Yeah, had a full stomach removal, did not go through chemo, which was smart on him.
• 50:40
  He didn't realize that that was essentially what saved him from getting any other mutations on his body, right?
• 50:48
  The peptides.
• 50:49
  No.
• 50:49
  So like not getting chemo because a lot of times... Yeah, chemo is...
• 50:53
  It's good and bad, right?
• 50:54
  Like my grandpa...
• 50:55
  Most of the time it's bad.
• 50:56
  Yeah.
• 50:57
  My grandpa who had that rare blood mutation was because he had full chemo treatment from his cancer.
• 51:04
  And so my dad...
• 51:06
  Literally last year in December, I get a phone call from my uncle saying your dad is in the emergency doing an emergency surgery because he was utilizing his intestines to digest.
• 51:19
  And part of the intestine actually clogged and burst.
• 51:22
  Yeah.
• 51:23
  And it's a very serious, dangerous situation.
• 51:26
  After the surgery, even though it's successful, he has very low immune system.
• 51:31
  He has lung issues.
• 51:33
  So his bodies can't keep up with everything that he's going through.
• 51:37
  The doctor told me, you need to fly back.
• 51:40
  Your dad probably has about three days left.
• 51:43
  I was like, what do I know now that I currently can't get my hands on to actually try to help save my dad?
• 51:52
  In my head was either I try or I don't try and the outcome is the same.
• 51:57
  I rather try.
• 51:59
  I rather die trying than not.
• 52:02
  That's what I say to every single person.
• 52:04
  If you know you there's that 0.001 chance of success,
• 52:09
  Do it.
• 52:10
  Why not?
• 52:10
  It's not going to hurt you.
• 52:12
  So I brought over all of the peptides that I knew.
• 52:15
  And then I gave the ICU nurse a protocol.
• 52:18
  They've never seen this.
• 52:20
  And this is in China.
• 52:21
  Yeah.
• 52:22
  Like the funny thing is most of the raw ingredients are made in the US or in China.
• 52:27
  Like all of the peptides that are, you know, research based only out here.
• 52:31
  We they buy the raw ingredients.
• 52:33
  Yeah.
• 52:33
  Peptime Sciences.
• 52:34
  They got shut down.
• 52:35
  Uh huh.
• 52:35
  And then they buy their ingredients in China and then they make it out here in the US and they're recompounded and they're retest the purity for it.
• 52:42
  But no one's heard of anything that I brought back.
• 52:45
  So I said, please just try.
• 52:48
  And I had to sign away his entire life.
• 52:51
  They were not liable for anything from that moment on.
• 52:54
  And after a week of trying, I saved my dad and now he is out and he is doing better.
• 53:03
  I still have him on all the peptides and I gave him a regimen and he was too nervous to do it by himself.
• 53:08
  I'm like, dad, come on.
• 53:09
  Just suck it up.
• 53:11
  Grab your little chunkies and just stick.
• 53:13
  It's not that hard.
• 53:15
  And he was like, okay, okay.
• 53:16
  I taught him how to do everything.
• 53:18
  And now he does them and he is getting better, which I'm really grateful for, for finding this side of the healthcare system.
• 53:28
  Yeah.
• 53:29
  And an emergency.
• 53:29
  I mean, I'm not massive Mr. Peptide.
• 53:32
  You know that I'm like nature, sunshine, grounding, like that's the stuff that juices me.
• 53:36
  I, there's definitely a time and a place for peptides and they do have massive benefit.
• 53:41
  The GLPs though, I questioned those pretty hard, even up to Red Hatru Tide.
• 53:45
  I mean, I have friends that swear by it and I love them and respect them and in their choices to help people, but it's just not working in synergy with how the body uses them.
• 53:55
  Um,
• 53:57
  they're different because the the half-life is so long compared to the ones your body makes so but there's other peptides right like you have nad h h n a d h yeah n a d h um yeah well let's think of some other ones uh
• 54:15
  There's BPC-157, you know, TB-500.
• 54:19
  Like, these aren't as dangerous.
• 54:23
  Correct.
• 54:23
  Right?
• 54:24
  As GLPs.
• 54:25
  So be warned.
• 54:27
  Like, GLPs are not what they all cracked up to be.
• 54:30
  Is there a – depending on the person, is there a benefit?
• 54:34
  My opinion, there can be, but long-term benefits.
• 54:38
  they, the effect wears off when you get off of them, right?
• 54:42
  And then long-term, long-term, it's slowly chunking away at your body's health.
• 54:46
  Yeah, so- It's chunking away at it.
• 54:48
  Yeah, for the GLP users, if you're doing it correctly with a doctor that is knowledgeable about it, they will never put you up for more than like 10 to 12 milligrams per month, right?
• 55:02
  And some people that I know that are on that much per week, right?
• 55:07
  And that's not the healthy way to do these things.
• 55:10
  It's a tool.
• 55:11
  It's not a crutch.
• 55:13
  Everybody's currently using it as a crutch because now they can enjoy life.
• 55:18
  They can drink and then they can eat.
• 55:20
  Oh, I'll just do a shot of GLPs and then my weight will go down.
• 55:24
  That's not how your body is truly working.
• 55:26
  You're actually not getting adequate protein intake in there.
• 55:30
  You're supposed to utilize it to kind of help balance calories.
• 55:34
  your actual life, you need to do the work, you need to work out, you need to eat better, you need to give your body the necessary nutrients to actually increase the level of metabolism in your system.
• 55:45
  Let's find out what's really happening in your body that's causing you to gain weight.
• 55:51
  For myself, I thought it was because of birth, right?
• 55:56
  Like after, you know, women give birth, most of us chunk up and then we just
• 56:01
  settle.
• 56:02
  And we're like, okay, well, this is where we are now.
• 56:04
  Perimenopause, hello.
• 56:06
  But it was because I was inflamed and my metabolism wasn't there and my body wasn't functioning well.
• 56:13
  I was lacking something.
• 56:15
  I was lacking that ATP production.
• 56:17
  And I did an ADH and I used it to actually do research on my own body to see what was going to happen.
• 56:25
  And I naturally lost 50 pounds with the aid of,
• 56:30
  one single peptide.
• 56:31
  That's not GLP.
• 56:32
  And it's not GLP, though.
• 56:33
  It's not GLP.
• 56:34
  And NADH, has it been around a while?
• 56:36
  Actually, NADH has been around longer than NAD Plus has.
• 56:39
  These two coenzymes, they're in the same system.
• 56:44
  They're in the same Krebs cycle.
• 56:46
  NADH was first discovered back in the 1990s and first stabilized as an oral tablet by Dr. Berkmeyer in Austria in 1996.
• 56:57
  Yeah.
• 56:58
  He patented and created his own supplement, and it's been used on patients with chronic fatigue syndrome.
• 57:05
  I don't know what happened.
• 57:07
  All of a sudden, this molecule disappeared.
• 57:10
  Yeah, because I didn't hear it.
• 57:11
  It was always NAD+.
• 57:13
  And there's some, you know, there's good and bad research on it.
• 57:17
  But if taken properly, I don't know if it's dangerous in any way, but –
• 57:20
  always right like the low minimal dosing it's always beneficial but when people take it to the next level i think that's where like when they biohack it what yeah i'm just throwing it out yeah like when you are doing too much of it that's not good like those side effects can be for the nad plus especially chest tightness anxiety feeling literally like you're about to pass out i tried it and that's what happened to me and i was like oh my gosh i don't like this
• 57:49
  And one of the reasons why my manufacturer actually told me the reason NAD plus became popular was because no one was able to actually stabilize the NADH molecule.
• 58:01
  It was too hard, too costly, and too difficult.
• 58:04
  Then they realized, oh, we can just make NAD plus because it's missing an electron that's being attached onto it.
• 58:11
  The body will still use it and work.
• 58:15
  And then the outcome, it's somewhat similar.
• 58:19
  it's fine.
• 58:19
  It's making us money.
• 58:21
  Great.
• 58:21
  Let's push this product out.
• 58:22
  As it always is.
• 58:23
  It's a lower cost, lower cost product.
• 58:25
  You put marketing around it.
• 58:27
  Yep.
• 58:27
  And blow it up.
• 58:28
  It becomes the most popular thing.
• 58:29
  Yeah.
• 58:29
  Yeah.
• 58:30
  So that was a reason.
• 58:31
  That's what we do here in America.
• 58:32
  I know.
• 58:34
  I'm just like.
• 58:35
  We're so good at it.
• 58:36
  Yeah.
• 58:36
  Like so good at the spin.
• 58:38
  Yeah.
• 58:38
  And China, we're really good at copying.
• 58:41
  Yeah.
• 58:42
  Oh, you got a great product.
• 58:43
  Let me copy it right off of you.
• 58:45
  Make it cheaper.
• 58:46
  Yep.
• 58:47
  Way cheaper.
• 58:48
  Yeah.
• 58:48
  So when I discovered NADH and then found out there was a manufacturer that's actually willing to put in the work here in the States, actually, and they partnered with three scientists that actually discovered the telomerase enzyme in our telomeres to elongate our DNA to essentially write anti-age and create that longevity protocol for us.
• 59:14
  um i saw it as a great way to reintroduce it into the market the price obviously is higher compared to the nad plus but i stay true to my integrity like i'm not lying to clients i know exactly what this product does to my body and i know exactly what we'll do for your body like i
• 59:38
  We're different, but the basic mechanism is the same.
• 59:42
  It's an electron donation, an energy donation, instead of having to take energy away from our body and then give it out compared to the NAD+.
• 59:51
  That's why I love working with premium products.
• 59:56
  That's why I love working with companies that's willing to go in the extra steps to do good for the body, to do what's good for the human, the society.
• 1:00:06
  Yeah, not the thing that just blows up.
• 1:00:08
  But you are doing well.
• 1:00:09
  Like you're starting, people are catching on, doing the right thing.
• 1:00:12
  I think it takes more time.
• 1:00:14
  It's slower growth.
• 1:00:15
  But that's okay.
• 1:00:16
  I'm happy.
• 1:00:17
  Yeah, it's more stable.
• 1:00:18
  I mean, I've taken your ADHD product.
• 1:00:20
  I do feel it.
• 1:00:21
  I told you that.
• 1:00:21
  I'm like, wow, I do have more energy.
• 1:00:23
  I do feel more focused.
• 1:00:24
  So that's my honest opinion.
• 1:00:25
  Yeah.
• 1:00:26
  Do I take it a ton?
• 1:00:27
  No.
• 1:00:28
  Yeah.
• 1:00:28
  You don't need to.
• 1:00:29
  Yeah.
• 1:00:29
  That's the good part about it.
• 1:00:31
  Like this product isn't something where I want people to be stuck with it for forever.
• 1:00:36
  It's not a supplement.
• 1:00:38
  Well, that's what has to happen with most peptides.
• 1:00:40
  You have to stay on to get the effect, especially GLPs.
• 1:00:43
  Yeah, exactly.
• 1:00:44
  So like, for our own body, our body naturally produces an ADN and ADH in our system.
• 1:00:50
  But as we age, that mechanism kind of slows down as exact same molecule.
• 1:00:56
  And then is that you're producing same half life, everything in the body.
• 1:01:00
  Correct.
• 1:01:01
  Unlike GLPs.
• 1:01:02
  Exactly.
• 1:01:03
  Because GLPs have like a seven day?
• 1:01:07
  Yeah, seven day versus the 30 minute or 15 to 30 minute, the normal one in your body.
• 1:01:12
  Yeah, the normal one in our body is only 30 minutes.
• 1:01:14
  And then the one that they gave us is seven days.
• 1:01:16
  But if people actually realize, I'm sure you talk about it.
• 1:01:20
  There are foods, there are good source of plant foods that we can eat that can also help us.
• 1:01:26
  Yeah, we produce bacteria that make GLPs.
• 1:01:29
  So everything's a gut microbiome issue at the end of the day.
• 1:01:32
  Chinese people eat a lot of bitter melon.
• 1:01:34
  Bitter melon is great.
• 1:01:35
  Bitter melon is great.
• 1:01:37
  Yeah.
• 1:01:37
  It's great for glucose metabolism, your metabolism.
• 1:01:42
  Yeah, it's a good one.
• 1:01:43
  A lot of bitter melon.
• 1:01:44
  Yeah.
• 1:01:45
  It's not really yummy though.
• 1:01:47
  No, but you have to like learn how to cook it correctly.
• 1:01:50
  So what my dad does, he's my stepdad, he's Vietnamese.
• 1:01:55
  And so they have a dish where they actually put fungus, you know, the little like root fungus, and then they mince it with meat.
• 1:02:04
  You can do ground beef or ground turkey, and then you kind of shape it and then you hollow out the bitter melon.
• 1:02:13
  And you stuff the seasoning in there and then you make a like, you know, chicken broth or whatever bone broth.
• 1:02:19
  And then you put it in the pot and you let it simmer for four hours.
• 1:02:25
  Then the melon is super soft.
• 1:02:27
  And then you cut it up and then you eat it over rice.
• 1:02:30
  Do you have that recipe?
• 1:02:31
  I do.
• 1:02:31
  I'll send it to you.
• 1:02:32
  Yeah.
• 1:02:32
  We'll put it in the show notes.
• 1:02:33
  Yeah.
• 1:02:33
  And there's another one.
• 1:02:35
  Editing, guys.
• 1:02:35
  Yeah.
• 1:02:35
  You're putting that in the show notes.
• 1:02:36
  There's another one.
• 1:02:37
  That's so good for you.
• 1:02:38
  Bitter melon is so good for you.
• 1:02:39
  Yeah.
• 1:02:39
  There's also another one.
• 1:02:40
  It's a cold dish.
• 1:02:41
  And then you cut it up.
• 1:02:43
  You put vinegar.
• 1:02:44
  You put salt.
• 1:02:45
  You put a little bit of sugar.
• 1:02:46
  We can use aldolose sugar, which is good for our body.
• 1:02:49
  Yeah, it's good.
• 1:02:51
  And you put, what else?
• 1:02:52
  We put chili oil on there.
• 1:02:54
  I love chili oil.
• 1:02:55
  And then you can mix it with peanut if you're not allergic to peanut.
• 1:02:57
  It's almost dinner time.
• 1:02:58
  You've got to stop talking.
• 1:02:59
  I know.
• 1:02:59
  And then or you can like stir fry it with fungus and eggs.
• 1:03:03
  What's fungus?
• 1:03:04
  I don't even know what that is.
• 1:03:05
  Like mushrooms?
• 1:03:05
  You know what fungus is?
• 1:03:06
  It's Chinese fungus.
• 1:03:08
  They're black.
• 1:03:09
  So they're crunchy.
• 1:03:12
  And then it's really good for you also.
• 1:03:14
  I'm sure.
• 1:03:15
  Yeah.
• 1:03:15
  It's got great benefits for your body.
• 1:03:17
  And it's also that natural microbiomes in your gut, in your system that we need.
• 1:03:22
  And so that is a...
• 1:03:24
  It's called fungus.
• 1:03:25
  So can you get... Black Chinese fungus.
• 1:03:26
  Is it in the international section of a grocery store?
• 1:03:29
  And you might have to go to like a Chinese grocery store.
• 1:03:31
  Chinese grocery store.
• 1:03:32
  Yeah.
• 1:03:32
  I'll send you a photo so you can just be like, I need this.
• 1:03:35
  I need this.
• 1:03:36
  This is wonderful.
• 1:03:37
  There's so much.
• 1:03:37
  See, that's the thing about culture.
• 1:03:38
  Like we miss out like in America, everything's so controlled.
• 1:03:41
  It's so synthetic.
• 1:03:42
  It's so packaged.
• 1:03:44
  Most other countries do not do that.
• 1:03:46
  No.
• 1:03:47
  Canada does.
• 1:03:48
  Because my wife's from Canada.
• 1:03:50
  I go there all the time.
• 1:03:51
  It's all prepackaged foods.
• 1:03:52
  It's gross.
• 1:03:54
  At least in China, like your food system.
• 1:03:56
  We buy it on the streets.
• 1:03:57
  We literally go down to wherever we live.
• 1:04:00
  There's a bunch of street vendors that are selling farm fresh fruits in front of us.
• 1:04:05
  Yeah.
• 1:04:05
  Yeah.
• 1:04:06
  And you see that in other countries too.
• 1:04:07
  It's all organic food.
• 1:04:08
  Yep.
• 1:04:09
  Like everything's organic and you can eat organic for like 400 a month.
• 1:04:14
  Like a family of five.
• 1:04:16
  Yeah.
• 1:04:16
  It's nuts.
• 1:04:17
  Here in America, it's like four grand if you want to eat.
• 1:04:21
  That's like a house payment.
• 1:04:22
  I know.
• 1:04:22
  Because the price, it's nuts unless you garden, which I do.
• 1:04:26
  Yeah.
• 1:04:27
  And I'll show you after the show.
• 1:04:28
  Yes.
• 1:04:28
  I'm excited to see that.
• 1:04:29
  I was like seeing a garden.
• 1:04:30
  So here you are, NEDH, the high level, the better form, extra electron compared to NED plus.
• 1:04:37
  It probably cancels out that plus because you put the- Exactly.
• 1:04:39
  It's gone.
• 1:04:40
  Now it's an H. Now it's a completed molecule.
• 1:04:44
  And your body makes it naturally.
• 1:04:46
  This is a way to, what does NADH do in your body?
• 1:04:50
  Is it part of electron transport chain?
• 1:04:51
  It is.
• 1:04:52
  Okay.
• 1:04:52
  It's part of the electron transport chain.
• 1:04:54
  It's that part where it gets the donation, right?
• 1:04:56
  The electron gets donated into the mitochondria and then it goes in the ADP that's in there, then gets that electron and it becomes ATP.
• 1:05:06
  ATP is then released and then it's doing all of the work and all of the benefits that our body needs.
• 1:05:12
  ATP is everything.
• 1:05:13
  ATP is literally everything.
• 1:05:14
  We need it.
• 1:05:15
  It's our light energy.
• 1:05:16
  It's developed through our mitochondria, which there's like can be up to like 20 in one cell.
• 1:05:21
  Yeah.
• 1:05:21
  It's crazy.
• 1:05:22
  Uh-huh.
• 1:05:23
  There's people out there, they're called mitochondriacs because everyone's focused on the mitochondria.
• 1:05:28
  It really is.
• 1:05:30
  It's the root of every single cell.
• 1:05:32
  Yeah.
• 1:05:32
  It's the powerhouse.
• 1:05:34
  That's the powerhouse of our bodies.
• 1:05:35
  I still say it.
• 1:05:36
  It's still the powerhouse of the cell.
• 1:05:38
  It is.
• 1:05:38
  Yeah.
• 1:05:39
  Like if you can heal your mitochondria, maximize its lifetime, then your body naturally will start to heal from inside out.
• 1:05:49
  And now you will have more energy.
• 1:05:51
  You have more.
• 1:05:52
  Repair.
• 1:05:53
  Repair.
• 1:05:53
  Repair.
• 1:05:54
  Compared to the damage.
• 1:05:55
  Exactly.
• 1:05:56
  Less likely to get injured, less likely to get sick because now your immune, your defense system went up also.
• 1:06:03
  Like I, every time, I haven't gotten sick in a really long time, like knock on wood.
• 1:06:07
  But when I get sick, my first defense is put more NADH in my system.
• 1:06:14
  But you have to remember.
• 1:06:15
  Remember nature.
• 1:06:16
  Yeah.
• 1:06:17
  We have to get sick.
• 1:06:18
  It's time for a fever.
• 1:06:19
  It's time for a rebirth.
• 1:06:20
  It's time for a wiping out cellular apoptosis, killing off the bad cells so you can have healthier cells that make more mitochondria.
• 1:06:28
  And, you know, so always trust nature.
• 1:06:31
  And, you know, that's always going to be my core belief.
• 1:06:34
  This is an awesome product.
• 1:06:36
  It does work.
• 1:06:37
  It's not my ultimate jam, but I will take it.
• 1:06:40
  Yeah.
• 1:06:41
  And I do like certain amounts of peptides.
• 1:06:44
  I agree that they're really helpful for certain people.
• 1:06:48
  I'm trying to find a way to integrate everyone back into nature.
• 1:06:51
  That's my goal.
• 1:06:51
  And I know that's not possible.
• 1:06:54
  Most people right now I think will at some point have to.
• 1:06:58
  I think regenerative farming will have to be more important.
• 1:07:00
  We're going to have to find ways to go outside and get in the sun more to drive our electron transport change, which I'm sure when we're getting that energy, that wavelength of energy –
• 1:07:10
  into ourselves like a plant, it's probably driving.
• 1:07:13
  It is.
• 1:07:13
  The first thing that you should be doing when you wake up, you obviously absolutely probably do this, is go outside, hit the grass, touch it with your bare feet, and then just close your eyes and let that sun do its work.
• 1:07:25
  Will that drive Nat?
• 1:07:27
  It will.
• 1:07:27
  Yeah, naturally.
• 1:07:28
  Naturally.
• 1:07:29
  It increases your ATP production.
• 1:07:33
  That's the.
• 1:07:34
  Drives the chain, man.
• 1:07:35
  Yep.
• 1:07:35
  And Nat H drives the chain.
• 1:07:37
  That is something that I need to start doing more because I'm always cooped up in the office or like on my computer screen, which is not good for us.
• 1:07:44
  Well, I'm here to.
• 1:07:45
  This is my job to inspire, right?
• 1:07:47
  Get outside.
• 1:07:48
  Absolutely.
• 1:07:48
  Find every excuse you possibly can to get outside.
• 1:07:51
  If you don't garden.
• 1:07:53
  plant one of the easiest things it'll take over your garden or put it in a pot like mint just we need to reconnect to our food yeah you know it's it's stuck in a package you didn't touch the cow that most we used to you know we knew the cow yeah we touched the cow we skinned the cow we got the bacteria off the cow onto us onto our skin like we're we're devoid of anyway that's off on on my rant but that's what i'm passionate about and
• 1:08:19
  No, I absolutely love it because I need to send you all the Chinese herbs.
• 1:08:23
  Yeah, it's so great.
• 1:08:25
  I have so much to learn.
• 1:08:26
  Yeah.
• 1:08:27
  I so know nothing.
• 1:08:29
  It's what I love.
• 1:08:29
  I so know nothing.
• 1:08:31
  And I get to experience life with great people like you.
• 1:08:34
  How do people find your bio bloom?
• 1:08:36
  I love the word bloom, by the way.
• 1:08:38
  Bloom from within.
• 1:08:39
  Bloom from within.
• 1:08:40
  You're blooming it up, girl.

  That's a huge.
• 1:09:20
  How do you make any money on this?
• 1:09:22
  You just cut your margin in half.
• 1:09:24
  But if I can help someone feel better and that person messages me saying, oh my gosh, my energy has increased so much.
• 1:09:32
  That is wholesale.
• 1:09:33
  You know that.
• 1:09:33
  Yeah.
• 1:09:34
  That's how much I sell it at the conference.
• 1:09:36
  Yeah, that's okay.
• 1:09:38
  Because this is a this is a live.
• 1:09:40
  Well, I'm going to say that's going to be for a limited time.
• 1:09:43
  So I don't want to make doctors mad.
• 1:09:44
  Okay, that have you know what I mean?
• 1:09:46
  I'm thinking down the chain.
• 1:09:47
  They're like, hey, I can just use non toxic dad code.
• 1:09:50
  And because your practitioner health practitioner is working with you.
• 1:09:53
  Yeah, they need this is what supports them.
• 1:09:55
  Yeah.
• 1:09:57
  But for at least the next few months.
• 1:10:00
  Yeah, we can do that.
• 1:10:01
  We can do that.
• 1:10:02
  I'll set a timeline.
• 1:10:03
  And so don't get upset if it goes away.
• 1:10:07
  Yes.
• 1:10:07
  Because that's a huge – you're getting it wholesale.
• 1:10:09
  Yeah.
• 1:10:09
  Like you'd pay more through your physician unless you – Oh, we forgot to tell them there's two different forms on there.
• 1:10:16
  So the ones you like is the 500, which is pure energy in the morning.
• 1:10:20
  And then I did another formulation, which I gave to you.
• 1:10:23
  You have to try it.
• 1:10:25
  You got to tell me.
• 1:10:26
  I need feedback.
• 1:10:27
  Throw me the patch.
• 1:10:28
  Yeah, I need feedback.
• 1:10:29
  So that one.
• 1:10:29
  I love your little delivery mechanisms.
• 1:10:31
  I do.
• 1:10:32
  I love this.
• 1:10:32
  I love.
• 1:10:33
  And it's another.
• 1:10:34
  It's transdermal.
• 1:10:35
  Right.
• 1:10:35
  And then you, you, it's a glass jar, which is really cool.
• 1:10:39
  You pop it.
• 1:10:39
  It puts in the powder.
• 1:10:41
  You mix it up.
• 1:10:42
  It looks like phenolphthalein.
• 1:10:43
  Yeah.
• 1:10:44
  Which is an indicator in chemistry, but it has that pink and you drop it on the little pads and then it has a non-toxic like silicone type.
• 1:10:52
  You know?
• 1:10:53
  The little stickies.
• 1:10:54
  I have it on right now.
• 1:10:56
  And it, yep.
• 1:10:58
  And then it absorbs slowly into your body.
• 1:11:01
  So this is actually also inspired by Chinese, traditional Chinese medicine mechanism.
• 1:11:09
  When we used to hurt ourselves, my grandma would grind up herbs.
• 1:11:15
  Herbs.
• 1:11:15
  And then she will use a cloth and then put the herbs on there and then kind of wrap it up.
• 1:11:21
  And that accelerates healing.
• 1:11:23
  Yeah.
• 1:11:23
  And when it, and those herbs absorb through your skin.
• 1:11:25
  Exactly.
• 1:11:26
  Because it's porous.
• 1:11:27
  Yeah.
• 1:11:27
  Yeah.
• 1:11:27
  And it's called a poultice, right?
• 1:11:29
  Uh-huh.
• 1:11:30
  Yeah.
• 1:11:30
  Yeah.
• 1:11:30
  So that was the reason why I thought about it this way.
• 1:11:33
  It's like.
• 1:11:34
  It's like a poultice.
• 1:11:35
  Yeah.
• 1:11:35
  Like, oh my gosh.
• 1:11:36
  Like, this is way better.
• 1:11:37
  Like, for people that don't want to, like, inject themselves because it hurts.
• 1:11:41
  It does hurt.
• 1:11:43
  And also for people that want to try it.
• 1:11:45
  And then also for people that don't like to take the oral supplements.
• 1:11:49
  Oh, our other form is the 1000.
• 1:11:52
  That one is to help with sleep.
• 1:11:54
  I know it's got double the amount of the concentrate, but it's got magnesium glycinate in it.
• 1:12:01
  It's got CoQ10, great for our heart.
• 1:12:03
  It's got L-carnitine for recovery.
• 1:12:05
  It's got B3.
• 1:12:06
  And your mitochondria.
• 1:12:07
  Yeah, and it's got B3 and B12 to help uplift that.
• 1:12:12
  At night, you can take that.
• 1:12:13
  You can.
• 1:12:13
  That would keep me up.
• 1:12:15
  I don't know if I'm going to try it tonight.
• 1:12:16
  I've got to get a night's sleep.
• 1:12:17
  Try it in a late afternoon.
• 1:12:20
  Yeah, I'll try it on a weekend.
• 1:12:21
  Try it in a late afternoon.
• 1:12:23
  Yeah, sometimes B12.
• 1:12:24
  And you put the right B12 in there.
• 1:12:25
  I remember looking at it was methylcobalamin.
• 1:12:27
  Yeah, methylcobalamin.
• 1:12:28
  It offers a methyl group, which is great to support your methylation cycle.
• 1:12:33
  Methyl donors, you need that to neutralize toxins, metabolic wastes, all the things.
• 1:12:38
  That's exciting.
• 1:12:39
  So for a limited time, they get 50% off.
• 1:12:41
  Yes.
• 1:12:41
  So we can use the- Because I don't want to make doctors mad.
• 1:12:44
  No.
• 1:12:45
  I mean, sorry.
• 1:12:46
  We'll see how long it goes.
• 1:12:47
  We'll do it until a doctor complains.
• 1:12:48
  Yeah.
• 1:12:49
  We'll do it until somebody complains.
• 1:12:52
  And then we'll lock it down.
• 1:12:53
  It'll be NTD50.
• 1:12:56
  NTD50.
• 1:12:57
  Yeah.
• 1:12:57
  Just do non-toxic dad 50.
• 1:12:59
  The whole thing?
• 1:13:00
  You want them to write it out?
• 1:13:01
  Yeah.
• 1:13:01
  Non-toxic dad 50.
• 1:13:02
  Okay.
• 1:13:02
  This way because all my codes are non-toxic dad.
• 1:13:05
  Oh, okay, okay.
• 1:13:05
  So just use non-toxic dad.
• 1:13:07
  Perfect.
• 1:13:07
  We'll make it non-toxic dad.
• 1:13:09
  Okay.
• 1:13:09
  Non-toxic dad 50.
• 1:13:10
  Because that's where, like when I always say, you know, whenever I get strong arm someone for a discount, usually like I'm thinking 50% and 15% in free shipping and here you go, give 50.
• 1:13:21
  I know we're talking about this, but that's really shocking and really sweet of you.
• 1:13:24
  Yeah.
• 1:13:25
  You know, so thank you for being on the show.
• 1:13:27
  But here's my question.
• 1:13:28
  Oh, yeah.
• 1:13:29
  Waiting for that.
• 1:13:29
  What's more toxic, Chinese education or American education?
• 1:13:37
  Oh.
• 1:13:39
  I would have to say the current public education system in America is more toxic than the current Chinese education.
• 1:13:51
  Can you give me some insights as to why?
• 1:13:53
  Let's go off on this.
• 1:13:54
  China is actually adapting early education.
• 1:14:00
  differently than what we're doing.
• 1:14:02
  They're actually adapting the Montessori styles of teaching, of learning.
• 1:14:07
  Yeah, using wood blocks, using lifestyle skills to teach children, to actually teach them independence, to teach them life lessons through learning with their hands.
• 1:14:21
  I don't know if you've ever seen it on social media, but a lot of times you'll see a tiny little Chinese kid cooking.
• 1:14:28
  That's their class for that day.
• 1:14:30
  And they actually cut back on homework.
• 1:14:33
  And they're encouraging more field trips.
• 1:14:37
  Even when I was in school, we went to a lot of field trips.
• 1:14:39
  And it was very fun.
• 1:14:40
  We went to the park.
• 1:14:41
  China has great parks.
• 1:14:43
  The parks are fantastic.
• 1:14:45
  And it's free.
• 1:14:46
  and only like, you know, the rides and stuff, you have to pay for it.
• 1:14:49
  But to get in there, it's all free, not like here where you have to pay for a fee.
• 1:14:53
  I get it.
• 1:14:54
  We're protecting, preserving nature.
• 1:14:56
  But that's all included and covered under the government.
• 1:15:00
  Your citizens don't need to pay extra for that.
• 1:15:03
  And right now they're implementing all of that for early childhood development, which I think is fantastic because I almost wanted to move back to China and put my kids in those schools.
• 1:15:13
  It's a lot cheaper also.
• 1:15:15
  It is a lot cheaper.
• 1:15:16
  You got to pay for that kind of education here.
• 1:15:18
  Yeah.
• 1:15:18
  In Utah, actually, they have Montessori schools that you can get into for the lottery, and it's covered by the states.
• 1:15:26
  You don't have to pay for it.
• 1:15:27
  So they have Montessori.
• 1:15:27
  They have Waldorf.
• 1:15:30
  My husband grew up Waldorf.
• 1:15:32
  Yeah.
• 1:15:32
  So my kids did, my oldest daughter did Montessori and then she did Montessori for a year, I guess, eight years ago or nine years ago when we moved here and then we've been homeschooled ever since.
• 1:15:42
  But that's what we are.
• 1:15:43
  We use a lot of the Montessori methods, some of the tools we buy, some of that.
• 1:15:45
  We have, my wife integrates like...
• 1:15:47
  four different curriculums for our children.
• 1:15:50
  As a matter of fact, I need to meet with her tonight.
• 1:15:51
  She's like, you need to participate in our children's future.
• 1:15:55
  She's like, I got to discuss this with you.
• 1:15:57
  So we're having a meeting tonight on education.
• 1:16:00
  So why else do you think the Chinese education is better?
• 1:16:06
  I also think we are not trying to steer away from history.
• 1:16:11
  A lot of our current public educational systems are banning great books that children can benefit from.
• 1:16:18
  Like, don't quote me on this, but I feel like I live in California.
• 1:16:23
  You get lots of extra books banned there probably.
• 1:16:26
  And then they're putting out like weird things, right?
• 1:16:29
  Like things that I just don't believe that our kids should know or learn about.
• 1:16:34
  At our age, yeah.
• 1:16:35
  I want to say, was it To Kill the Mucking Bird is getting banned in California?
• 1:16:41
  I know one of you guys are going to like.
• 1:16:42
  The Google guy, look it up.
• 1:16:43
  Yeah, help.
• 1:16:44
  Is it that one?
• 1:16:46
  There's several Dr. Seuss books that have been pulled, a few.
• 1:16:49
  Which I find kind of.
• 1:16:53
  One was about a Chinaman.
• 1:16:55
  That's why they pulled it.
• 1:16:56
  I mean, come on.
• 1:16:57
  They said something about a Chinaman and that's why they pulled it.
• 1:16:59
  But that's OK. Like, that's what we need to learn.
• 1:17:02
  We need to learn about history so history doesn't repeat itself.
• 1:17:07
  Today's society, I think we're becoming too sensitive and at the same time too insensitive.
• 1:17:15
  It's at a conflict right now.
• 1:17:17
  And China is not.
• 1:17:19
  They're actually learning from history.
• 1:17:23
  Everybody learns history from the beginning.
• 1:17:26
  We read poems.
• 1:17:29
  They make us memorize poems, and we have to read it out loud in front of the schools.
• 1:17:33
  But they make you analyze it.
• 1:17:35
  They make you actually use your brain.
• 1:17:37
  And the way how we teach math, it's still the traditional way.
• 1:17:41
  We actually use... What is that called?
• 1:17:43
  The...
• 1:17:44
  The math board is like a board and then the beads, right?
• 1:17:48
  I learned math using that skill.
• 1:17:51
  And then I'm able to do math in my head.
• 1:17:53
  American kids can't do that.
• 1:17:55
  When I came to the States, people were using their calculators doing algebra.
• 1:18:00
  And I was dumbfounded.
• 1:18:01
  And I'm like, you don't know what four times seven is?
• 1:18:05
  Or you don't know how to do these manually by hand?
• 1:18:08
  Kids can't do that today?
• 1:18:09
  No.
• 1:18:10
  See, I'm so divorced from – because we homeschool.
• 1:18:13
  Yeah.
• 1:18:14
  No.
• 1:18:14
  And we make our kids do that in their head anytime we're doing whatever.
• 1:18:18
  We're just like, what's that in your head?
• 1:18:19
  We're always doing math.
• 1:18:20
  Yeah.
• 1:18:21
  So – And we teach with the –
• 1:18:24
  Right.
• 1:18:24
  Come on.
• 1:18:25
  And then China, even though AI advancement, all of that, right, computer classes are in, but it's still handwrite everything.
• 1:18:34
  Handwrite this, handwrite that.
• 1:18:35
  You write essays on essays.
• 1:18:38
  All of the testings are still done on paper to keep up with your writings, your skills.
• 1:18:44
  This is a skill set that's being lost.
• 1:18:45
  Oh, so they're just forcing writing so they can't use AI.
• 1:18:47
  Yeah.
• 1:18:49
  They are not allowed to.
• 1:18:50
  Like, none of the school curriculums, you're not allowed to use AI.
• 1:18:53
  Like, my little brother, so I watched, him and I are 12 years apart, so I watched him grow up, right?
• 1:18:59
  Like, from elementary school where there's not much computer to going into middle school and just full-on computerized in high school.
• 1:19:07
  Like, no writing anymore.
• 1:19:09
  And now in college, he's just like...
• 1:19:10
  I use AI.
• 1:19:11
  I'm like, don't you get?
• 1:19:12
  Here in the U.S.?
• 1:19:13
  Yeah.
• 1:19:14
  Yeah, yeah.
• 1:19:15
  We both go to UC San Diego.
• 1:19:17
  Go Tritons.
• 1:19:19
  Wait, this one.
• 1:19:21
  Yeah, and then I'm like, doesn't your professor say anything?
• 1:19:25
  And then he's like, well, my professor actually encourages us to use AI.
• 1:19:29
  Yeah, there's certain people who think AI is the future.
• 1:19:32
  If, you know, you're going to not get jobs, you're not going to get all this stuff.
• 1:19:35
  And I think human connection, human biology is the greatest intelligence because it's artificial intelligence.
• 1:19:45
  Exactly.
• 1:19:45
  Like it's this.
• 1:19:46
  It's not biological intelligence.
• 1:19:48
  Yeah.
• 1:19:48
  It's this that's keeping us grounded, that's keeping us connected.
• 1:19:52
  It's this that's why your audiences are learning and then they're able to gain knowledge from you.
• 1:19:58
  It's this connection that we have between you and I that we're able to get out a genuine conversation for the ones that are listening, for the ones that are watching you can feel it.
• 1:20:09
  Feel it.
• 1:20:10
  You said it.
• 1:20:12
  There's a frequency or there's energy and it's being sent off into the cosmos, you know, into the quantum.
• 1:20:19
  And we do scroll, right?
• 1:20:20
  But when you're...
• 1:20:24
  Reels come up.
• 1:20:25
  I pause.
• 1:20:27
  I listen.
• 1:20:28
  Did you follow me before this?
• 1:20:29
  I did.
• 1:20:30
  I was your fangirl.
• 1:20:32
  When I first met you at the conference, Dr. Ashley actually brought you over to my booth.
• 1:20:38
  I was like, oh, my gosh.
• 1:20:40
  And then she was like, this is Warren, my good friend.
• 1:20:42
  And I'm like, you're friends with him?
• 1:20:44
  Yeah, Dr. Ashley Beckham.
• 1:20:45
  We've been friends a long time.
• 1:20:46
  Before I was a non-toxic dad.
• 1:20:47
  Yeah.
• 1:20:48
  Oh, yeah.
• 1:20:48
  Yeah, I love her.
• 1:20:49
  She's great.
• 1:20:50
  She's all heart.
• 1:20:51
  Yeah.
• 1:20:51
  A real practitioner.
• 1:20:52
  A real practitioner.
• 1:20:54
  Chinese medicine, too.
• 1:20:55
  Yep, exactly.
• 1:20:57
  And naturopathic doctor.
• 1:20:59
  Great Dr. Ashley Beckham.
• 1:21:00
  Yeah.
• 1:21:02
  Hi.

  Shout out for her.
• 1:21:05
  Yeah.

  But it's been a party.
• 1:21:27
  We went all over the place.
• 1:21:28
  We did.
• 1:21:29
  The neurodivergent.
• 1:21:31
  No, but it was really good.
• 1:21:32
  But we covered some things that were really fun and interesting.
• 1:21:35
  And I think our audience will enjoy.
• 1:21:37
  So thanks again for being here.
• 1:21:38
  Thank you so much.
• 1:21:39
  Let's go check out my garden.
• 1:21:40
  Yes.
• 1:21:40
  Yes.
