Latest / Ageless and Timeless Podcast® / Dr. Dayan Goodenowe, expert on the biochemical mechanisms of aging and disease
Transcript
- 0:09Good morning everyone. This is Michelle Hughes from Ageless and Timeless. We're filming
- 0:14today from San Francisco, and my guest, doctor Dayan good Now, is
- 0:19in Temecula, so we're both California today and many of you know Temecula as
- 0:25the new wine capital of California. I guess I don't think doctor Gooden Now
- 0:31is actually partaking in the wine part of the industry, but he does have
- 0:35an institute located in this lovely town of Temecula, which we're going to talk
- 0:41about in a moment. So welcome doctor good Now. Thank you, Michelle.
- 0:44It's a pleasure to be here. And you know what I asked Jessica,
- 0:48your assistant, because your name d A y A n. I've heard
- 0:53some people pronounce it Dan and some people pulled ten rounds at day in.
- 0:56So which do you prefer? Oh, Dayan? That seems more sophisticated anyway,
- 1:03So okay, so day and good Now. So for our audience,
- 1:07I just want to tell a little bit about you, and I'm going to
- 1:10let you take over. So there's a lot of a lot of definitions of
- 1:14terms that you're going to want to hear after we do a brief intro.
- 1:19But doctor good Now is a neuroscientist. That's number one definition, and we
- 1:23all know what that is. He is also a epidemologist, He's a synthetic
- 1:34chemical researcher, right, and also a chemical biochemical researcher. Right. So
- 1:42there's so many titles and I don't know how you sleep at night because you
- 1:46are so busy. He's just written a book called Breaking Alzheimer's, which is
- 1:52probably one of the most cutting edge and exciting books to come out on the
- 1:56subject of dementia and Alzheimer's. We'll be talking about that as well today.
- 2:00So okay, so doctor good Now, how did you get to where you
- 2:06are today? What was there the inspirations that puts you on your path to
- 2:12doing what you're doing today, which is groundbreaking research and of course protocols for
- 2:19anti aging. Well, thank you, Michelle. Yeah. Well, basically,
- 2:23it's just curiosity, an insatiable curiosity about life and how things work fundamentally.
- 2:30And so my earlier training is in synthetic organic chemistry, that's my first
- 2:35degree, and then I went into neurochemistry look at how the biochemistry of the
- 2:38brain behaved under certain circumstances. Looking at the neuropathology, say of Alzheimer's and
- 2:44Parkinson's and depression and anxiety and so on, and then in terms of understanding
- 2:50how to intervene in terms of brain health, led to looking at technologies that
- 2:55we can measure the biochemistry more thoroughly. And so my first real you know,
- 3:00invention is eventionally called non targeted metabolic profile, which uses a high field
- 3:07ion cyclotron mass petroumeter. So so we have a seven tesla ion cyclotron in
- 3:10our facility or intemecula, and this is what we allows us to measure thousands
- 3:15and thousands of molecules in your blood. And originally the technology was thought to
- 3:21be used and we did use it for functional genomics research and understanding how human
- 3:25genome works, but also how to diagnose diseases. And it's very good at
- 3:30diagnosing disease. It can pretty well diagnose all human diseases and done huge epidemiological
- 3:36studies on those those issues like colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, or variant cancers,
- 3:40as well as inteological diseases. But what became clear from that research was
- 3:47that there was biochemistry occurring before disease. Because when we looked at the biochemistry
- 3:53of people with disease and without disease, and then we looked at them again
- 3:59after they've been technically cured, like so the cancer has been removed and they've
- 4:02been considered cancer free. Many of these biomarkers didn't go back to normal,
- 4:06which meant that they were preceding the disease. And this is quite shocking.
- 4:13However, in retrospect, it shouldn't have been so shocking. It sounds pretty
- 4:15obvious now that I know more about this thing. And so what we've found
- 4:21over time, and what I found when looking into the biochemical pathways is that
- 4:27we actually have a health state, like we are fundamentally healthy, and we
- 4:31deviate from that health, and that deviation from health identifies what diseases we have
- 4:39a risk of becoming in the future. Basically, it's basically it's measuring ball
- 4:43tires, right, So you can say you've got a ball tire may not
- 4:46be flat today, but you know what, if you run on the wrong
- 4:48street, you're going to get a flat tire. If the right circumstances arise,
- 4:51you're going to get a flat And that's the biochemical issue of programs.
- 4:57Basically, predictability of the future. But these prodromes are essentially deviations from health,
- 5:03like a ball tire is a deviation from a brand new tire. And
- 5:09then when you start looking at it, and when you start following that balancing
- 5:12ball further and further, you start saying, Okay, how do we correct
- 5:15these issues? How do these biochemical deficiencies? And one of the critical ones
- 5:19was these class of molecules called plasm mallagens and e we related to Alzheimer's disease
- 5:24and how the low levels of these plasm malgens correlated with the severity dementia correlated
- 5:30with the rate of decline in the elderly. And so then the next question
- 5:35says, okay, well, what are we gonna do about it? What
- 5:38can we do about this? And the advantage I have as being a chemist
- 5:41is that I can design molecules, and so I design human biochemical intermediates.
- 5:46Basically, it's advanced nutrition. So what I do is I do basically advanced
- 5:51human biochemical engineering is what I do. So we basically identify the biochemical intermediates
- 5:59that the body needs that we can provide as food, natural food supplements that
- 6:03can restore bio chemical health. And then when you talk about ageless and timeless,
- 6:08which is the title of your podcast series, is that people think of
- 6:11this world, you know, think of this concept of immortality right there,
- 6:15and they think that they're going to seek it. They think that immortality is
- 6:17something that you go out and get back. That's not true. Immortality is
- 6:24something that you're born with. You actually lose your immortality, and immortality is
- 6:28basically life, and it's not And this is what happens a lot in life.
- 6:32We confuse the absence of a thing with a thing. Right, So,
- 6:40if you're a scientist or a physicist, and you know, for example,
- 6:44there's no such thing as cold. Cold is not an actual thing that
- 6:48exists. What exists is the lack of heat. So when you cool your
- 6:50house, you don't actually push, you don't actually put cold air in your
- 6:54house. You pull hot air out of your house. And there's really no
- 6:58such thing as darkness. Darkness is the absence of light, and so and
- 7:04so life and death. So there's really no such thing as death. Death
- 7:09really isn't a thing. Death is the absence of life. Is when you
- 7:14lose life, you die, And then you have to ask yourself well,
- 7:16then what the hell is this life thing they were talking about? And really,
- 7:18you're born with it, so you have life. It has function,
- 7:21it has purpose, and we have to maintain that. And so sometimes we
- 7:26talk about this anti aging or reversing aging. That really is impossible. What
- 7:31you have to do is you have to you have to go forward to a
- 7:34younger you. You can't go backwards to an older younger you know, a
- 7:39previous younger you. You have to go forward to a new younger you.
- 7:44That's some of the advanced work that trying to educate people that we can actually
- 7:46do this, Like aging is not a bad thing. You just need to
- 7:49age in the right direction. You need to age towards a younger you and
- 7:54more healthier you, more vitality you. And we need to understand what that
- 7:59means, like purpose in life drives your ability to get up. So,
- 8:03yeah, you said your head might spin because all the things I'm doing,
- 8:05But that kind of that gives you purpose. Right. I have children with
- 8:09rare diseases that I treat you work with their physicians, and we can restore
- 8:13it. We can we can circumvent their genetic disorders. And in the elderly
- 8:16now we can do significant recovery in dementia. We have a clinic now in
- 8:24Canada where people actually physically go to and we teach dementia recovery and rehabilitation.
- 8:30And I just recently showed people how you can reverse brain aging. So I
- 8:33did my own advanced MRS. A lot of these technologies are available, they're
- 8:37just not used in a routine way. And so one of the things I
- 8:41was trying to teach people is that, in using my own self as an
- 8:45example, is I, did you know, seventeen months of advanced targeted nutrition
- 8:50and I was able to reverse fifteen years of brain aging and showing it up
- 8:54on advanced MRI, so we can do. These are things. These are
- 8:58possible things, and it's but we kind of sometimes we get stuck in the
- 9:01middle of a story and we all start at the beginning of the story,
- 9:05and so that's kind of what keeps me excited. And that's so that's how
- 9:07I'm in this. And the other challenge in science is implementing it right.
- 9:13It's one thing to have an idea, or one thing to actually even prove
- 9:16an idea. It's another thing to be able to make it available to the
- 9:20general public. And so that's why we have a very large network of doctors,
- 9:24what two thousand doctors in our network now, and we are actively intervening
- 9:31in people's biochemical lives and making real differences in their world. And it's not
- 9:37it's actually and it's not magic. It's actually quite straightforward, scientifically logical sequence
- 9:45of events. And so yeah, that's when we're at So I assume that
- 9:48that's really really helpful. And it's so it's so kind of earth shattering for
- 9:52a lot of people to think about the possibilities that you've just described. That
- 9:58there is no real death. There's just a loss of life. I mean,
- 10:01I guess in some ways for some people that might be semantic. Like,
- 10:05Yet, the way you're approaching it is that you can have immortality.
- 10:09You just have to find these solutions for your particular customized needs for long life
- 10:16or longest life or forever life exactly. Well, it's like disease, Like
- 10:22you don't you don't actually get a disease, right, you actually lose health.
- 10:26Yeah, Like you know, you get you don't actually get diabetes,
- 10:31You lose the ability to regulate your glucose, you don't get cancer. Yourselves
- 10:37lose their ability to maintain their cellular integrity. And so we when we look
- 10:43at something after the fact, right, it's it looks like it's programmed,
- 10:50right, And sometimes I think we're programmed to die, but we're really not.
- 10:52We are We just adapt to death, and we need to learn how
- 10:56to adapt to life going forward. And that's what I do. That's that
- 11:01you know, you mentioned though, that you know, having a nutritional protocol
- 11:05for people who have lost health and are facing a certain dilemma, a challenge.
- 11:13We won't call it disease because it's just a loss of some part of
- 11:18their health. If I can follow your exactly, okay, so then yeah,
- 11:24So when you take that approach, then you start the curiosity comes in.
- 11:28So so you kind of have to work yourself backwards to say where does
- 11:31this begin? Like really, what is life to a human being? Like
- 11:37what what is it that keeps us alive? What are the what are the
- 11:39core components? Before I get to the very end of the story, maybe
- 11:43I should start at the beginning of the story, and the beginning of the
- 11:46story for human life is we are essentially a hybrid electric car. We burn
- 11:52hydrocarbons, okay, we eat protein and carbon fats, sugars. These are
- 12:00carbohydrates, Okay, they all come from the sun fundamentally converting water and carbon
- 12:05dioxide into glucose, and different various animals and microbes in our environment convert that
- 12:13to more complex molecules. But what we do is we take these hydrocarbons and
- 12:18we physically burn them. We burn them into carbon dioxide and water, just
- 12:20like a camp fire does, right, And we breathe out the carbon dioxide
- 12:24and we pee out the water, and then we take we take the energy
- 12:28that's formed from that burning process, just like the furnace in your house,
- 12:31and we charge a battery with it. So we run on battery energy and
- 12:35the battery is this mitochondria. And so that's quite you know, you think
- 12:39about the human bodies literally on fire. Right, we're burning carbon dioxide creating
- 12:45water, and we're taking that energy and we're charging a battery called the mitochondria.

- 13:16I g e nix dot com to find out more information about these powerful methods.
- 13:24It's mind boggling, Like you have thirty some trillion cells. Each of
- 13:30those cells are going to have hundreds of mitochondria. So you think of your
- 13:33Tesla car. Okay, the human body. If you kind of make it,
- 13:37if a Tesla car was built like a human body, every single drop
- 13:41of paint, every piece of rubber on the tire, everything in that entire
- 13:45car would be the battery. Okay, that the whole car would be the
- 13:48battery. There wouldn't be a battery pack. The entire car would be the
- 13:52battery. And that's how the human body is, and that's how we have
- 13:54such fine tune energy supplies all across of it. So are so first part,
- 14:01we need to maintain the mitochondrial strength, and that's oxidatid stress management.
- 14:05It's you know, it's your B vitamins, your B twelves, like the
- 14:07whole bunch of stuff in there, right, and then the other part of
- 14:09the human body, So mitochondrial, So a deal with. I teach people
- 14:13how to restore mitochondrial health and maintain that level. And it's and part of
- 14:18it's your physiology as well. And the other big part of human physiology is
- 14:22our membranes. Okay, you have these thirty trillion cells, and these are
- 14:26like little apartment buildings apartments in a huge, huge apartment. They're all separated
- 14:31from each other, and there's some sort of compartmentalization, just like you separate
- 14:35your kitchen from your bathroom, so you can do some functions in one area
- 14:37of the house without affecting the entire house. And your body is organized like
- 14:41that. But everything in the human body is alive, like it's not like
- 14:48bricks and mortar or the plaster of your walls. These are living materials.
- 14:52And the living materials that your body uses to create walls are called lippets or
- 14:56false lipets or fasts, and they create the by layer and they determine whether
- 15:01your walls are in good shape, or whether there's holes in the walls,
- 15:03or whether they're too stiff or misform. And so the fossil of a balance
- 15:09of your of your membranes becomes absolutely critical. And this is where the plast
- 15:13mallagens come in because that's one molecule class that is very strange. We're very
- 15:18dependent upon them. We get some from our parents or mother in breastfeeding,
- 15:24so it's the natural source of plast males is in breastbed babies, and that's
- 15:28why breastfeeding is so important for the first six to twelve months, especially for
- 15:33the milination of the brain. And then eventually the human body catches up and
- 15:37can make its own plast malagens. But it's not a small amount. It's
- 15:41like thirty percent of your brain. Like all this biocartitis that you're seeing out
- 15:43there with people dropping dead, that's plast malagen losses in their heart. Like
- 15:48the heart muscle has about fifty percent plast malagen in it. The weird thing
- 15:54about these molecules is you can't really get them from the food supply because they
- 16:00don't survive our digestion. So the human body is dependent upon them, and
- 16:04they and they, and they go down in certain diseases, and they go
- 16:07down as we age. So one of the things that was critical for me
- 16:10when I was showing people how we can restore brain voying, like I was
- 16:11able to increase my occipital load by ten percent, my white matter density,
- 16:18my myelination I think eight or nine percent. The functional connectivity of saying my
- 16:25nucleus basalas or my substantial nigra, all that connectivity could be improved. And
- 16:30that's not and it's not magic. It's basically restoring those molecules that the human
- 16:34body needs and doing it in a strategic way. And last the second part
- 16:38is that is that membrane structure of your human body. And then the third
- 16:42part, as as you go in a triage perspective, is Okay, what's
- 16:45the most core thing is your mitochondre. Second core is your membrane structure.
- 16:49Third core is really your your neurological signaling. Like your body is a whole
- 16:55network of neurons right that communicate, connect make things happen. The brain,
- 17:00of course, is the only thing I tell people that the entire body is
- 17:03basically designed to keep your brain fed because I can. I can replace your
- 17:07shoulder, I can even replace your heart, but the one thing I can't
- 17:10replace is your brain. And your body protects it pretty aggressively with the blood
- 17:15brain barrier. And but things can get into that and we we we lose
- 17:21our brain. We lose, we lose ourselves. We can't replace that.
- 17:25So I critically tell people that that's the number one priority in life is really
- 17:30maintaining your brain vitality. And that's good. And that's where the advanced MRI
- 17:36comes in because you can actually there's tools out there that we can use that
- 17:40accurately track and monitor not just the structure of the brain. Like most people
- 17:44look at MRI and say, oh, what are what are the volumes of
- 17:47my different parts of my brain? Or do I have a do I have
- 17:49a tumor, or do I have a multiples Gross's lesion? Or do I
- 17:52have a stroke? Those are the type of you know, they're they're they're
- 17:56kind of acute care usages. Is there any problem with my brain? But
- 18:02MRI is far more valuable than that. It can tell his function in real
- 18:06time. But the neurological system of the body, you know, you talk
- 18:08about people with als or you have the neuron which is the wire like the
- 18:14wire in your walls. Right, it has copper wire that goes long distances
- 18:19and it has a coating on that which is which keeps it from shorting out
- 18:23and making sparksply, right, and your body has that too. The inside
- 18:27is called your axon and that's where your neurological signals go. So if you
- 18:30want to be able to move quickly and be responsive to your environment and so
- 18:34on. And the outer coating is called your mieling and your those structures have
- 18:40very specific nutritional needs and physiological needs right like we have. The body doesn't
- 18:47really stop, you know, I talk I talk to people with the heart
- 18:51of the brain like you never you know, you can't just turn your heart
- 18:53off for six hours and give it a rest like it never stops, which
- 18:59itself is pretty It's where you look at the human body, the more in
- 19:03awe you become of what it actually can do. I think about that sixty
- 19:08seventy beats a minute from birth, right you know what I mean, Like
- 19:14think of a car, like what else in the in our world to perform
- 19:18day in and day out, hour by hour and minute by minute and the
- 19:22things like, it's pretty remarkable that we're even alive at all, if you
- 19:26think about it. And so when you get in awe of what it does,
- 19:29then our job is just to kind of say, you know, let's
- 19:32keep it, let's let's give it the tools Okay, let's not play god,
- 19:36okay, because we really don't know all the things at work. Okay,
- 19:38we have, We're given some miraculous working system here, and our job
- 19:45is try to keep it running fundamentally and and we can measure that. That's
- 19:48where the advanced mass spect technology comes in. We can say we can It's
- 19:53just like anything else in this world. You want to be able to monitor
- 19:57changes because you know, we're not like, we're not plants, right,
- 20:02Like you have to eat food, you have to work out, you have
- 20:03to your body needs to have some sort of resistance. So there goes to
- 20:07the after fee. So we are still stewards of our own bodies, like
- 20:11we're stewards not of our mind, and of of where we put our bodies,
- 20:15what kind of purpose we put them into, and you know, and
- 20:19all that kind of stuff and so and that kind of interaction between putting yourself
- 20:25in the right environment forcing your body to adapt to certain things. Right.
- 20:29The reason why we work out. I tell people, you know we work
- 20:30out. Working out is bad for you, So I say exercising is bad
- 20:34for you, but recovering from exercise is pretty good. So so you want
- 20:38to read it's the recovery because what you're doing, you're tricking your body.
- 20:44You're if you're lifting out on weights, you're tricking your body into thinking that
- 20:47that's what it has to do. So it doesn't only different it thinks if
- 20:49you if it thinks you have to lift on hundred pound weights, it's going
- 20:52to adapt one hundred pound weights. So the day that you're not lifting those
- 20:55weights, you have all that extra capacity. Or if you're if you're doing
- 20:57cardiovascular training and you're you're improving your auction utilization, you're tricking the body into
- 21:03thinking it needs more efficient auction utilization. And so you are now actively supporting
- 21:14teaching your body just like you would teach a child skills for a particular environment,
- 21:19and that's what we do as a stewart. So combination those two things.
- 21:22But you can't take a malnourished person and put them in the workout room
- 21:26expecting to build muscle. Honestly, this is so important. Everything you're saying,
- 21:30it just resonates and it actually it's so aligned with the purpose of ageless
- 21:36and timeless because as you said earlier, you know we're thinking ageless and timeless,
- 21:41i e. Immortality, and that doesn't have to be a pipe dream,
- 21:47and this isn't you know, we're not saying what your particular customized experience
- 21:52is going to be as an individual, but we do know that you have
- 21:56some control over the choices, and we are the sum total of our choices.
- 22:00And even though you've talked about reference to nutrition programs and exercises, we'll
- 22:07talk about that in a moment, because I do want people to understand that
- 22:10there are some things that you should do and there are some things you shouldn't
- 22:14do, and these are the things that you should do to support exactly everything
- 22:18that you've just described in terms of the maximum performance of that electric car so
- 22:26or or the performance of the wiring in your home or you know, those
- 22:29metaphors that you've used are very, very proficient because they do give people a
- 22:36way to relate. You know, some podcast guests have said aging is a
- 22:41disease, and I know, and I spoke to you originally. I mentioned
- 22:45that to you and you said, oh no, no, that's a very
- 22:47bad way to look at That's a negative approach to what we're all trying to
- 22:53accomplish here. So could you touch on that for a moment, And is
- 23:00absolutely unambiguously not a disease. Okay, it's just not period okay. And
- 23:06so because what aging is it's an association with the probability of a negative outcome.
- 23:14Okay, So when you have over time, you have a higher probability
- 23:19that something will fail. Okay, take a car, right, might be
- 23:23the breaks, might be the transmission, might be the headlights, it might
- 23:26be the winch, what you know, but you know, over a period
- 23:30of time, there is going to be an association with how old a car
- 23:33is to certain breakdowns. Okay. So age is simply an association. It
- 23:41doesn't cause the outcome. It's just associated with the outcome. And that's an
- 23:47important, very very important distinction, because people want to think that you're programmed,
- 23:52okay, that we're programmed to die, and then it is absolutely just
- 23:56not true. Okay, we have we have, we had app to it.
- 24:00People change their lifestyles, they lose their purpose in their twenties and thirties
- 24:03and forties, and their kids grow up and the things that they had a
- 24:07purpose for they don't do anymore. And then they have this idea that they're
- 24:10going to go retire. Okay, well that is just you just you're accepting
- 24:14death at that point in time because you're going to say, you know what,
- 24:15your body is going to adjust to the demands that you keep putting on
- 24:22it. And so so yeah, so the aging thing just not because,
- 24:26first of all, it's not a definable feature. Okay, eight, you
- 24:30don't die of one thing, Like you don't all die of a heart attack,
- 24:33you don't all die of pulmonary disease or stroke. So you have a
- 24:38whole list of age related or age associated mortality causes. And so even if
- 24:45you lived to a one hundred and ten years old and that person one hundred
- 24:48and ten dies, their whole body doesn't die a one hundred and ten.
- 24:52One of their functions died, one of the critical functions died. But maybe
- 24:56their muscles were still working, their heart might be still working, maybe the
- 24:59lungs they're working. So but just one critical function stopped working. So even
- 25:03at one hundred and ten, ninety percent of the body was still working.
- 25:07Fine, So I still was there. So I think this this is the
- 25:10issue people get. So I'm sorry, but it's it's it's a it's a
- 25:12defeatism perspective. They're trying to capture this portrait of Dorian Gray model of immortality,
- 25:21which is just not a reality based situation because time is you know,
- 25:30time doesn't stop. Okay, So you know what, doctor Goodenow, I
- 25:33just want to be sure that people understand that there there are choices that one
- 25:38makes that continual, make this continuum that you're discussing with us right now a
- 25:45personalized, customized experience. So it's if you mistreat your body, you are
- 25:52going to get that result. So you know, like they say, food
- 25:56is your is your health right? And our health as well, or all
- 26:00those kinds of platitudes, But what you're what you're describing is the possibility and
- 26:07not looking at the experience as a negative but as a positive. So it's
- 26:11not the it's not dyeing, it's the absence of life that that's a little
- 26:17it's it's semantic, but it's also very actionable. And so I just want
- 26:22our viewers to understand you do have choices and all of what doctor Goodenow is
- 26:27describing is the possibility. It seems utopian, but it actually isn't when you
- 26:33think about the steps along the way. So so maybe we could back up
- 26:40just for a moment, I think what we need to do is define a
- 26:42few terms, and one of them, of course, is prodrome and the
- 26:47other is plus malagen. Those are two terms that until I read your book
- 26:51or met you, I never had heard of them. And I think I'm
- 26:53pretty well immersed in a lot of the wellness nomenclature, so I'm sure that
- 27:00many of my viewers would need those terms defined. So could you spend a
- 27:04moment to sve for sure? Yeah, And so the prodrome is just technically
- 27:11it's a dictionary word. It's that which comes before it is. It is
- 27:15something that is predictive of a future event. And then plasmaogens are an actual
- 27:21class of molecules that are in the body. It's a biochemical, one of
- 27:26our natural biochemicals. And one last part of this aging thing, it's function.
- 27:30So people should only think about maintaining function. Okay, if you maintain
- 27:34the goal is maintain function indefinitely, and maintain function, and then people should
- 27:40take all the things that they've done. If you've been successful in your life,
- 27:42you've been successful in relationships. All those rules that apply in your everyday
- 27:48life, they apply to your biochemistry as well. So don't think that the
- 27:52body is some sort of black box and start seeking some magic pill or magic
- 27:57you know. One time and I tell people so the prodrome process and plasmaogens.
- 28:04It's kind of this triage approach. Like if you're a gardener, for
- 28:07example, right, and you fertilize your lawn, so nitrogen is your number
- 28:11one prior. You know, if you want to get nice plants, you
- 28:15need nitrogen. But you know what if it doesn't rain, if you don't
- 28:17water, no matter how much nitrogen you put on, you're not going to
- 28:19get any use of the nitrogen. So you say, okay, first things
- 28:22first, I need have enough water for my plant, and the second things,
- 28:26so okay, nitrogen is the next big thing. So if I have
- 28:27all the if I have water and I have nitrogen, then I say,
- 28:30okay, what can I add more? Then you put your phosphorus and potash,
- 28:33and then it's eventually you have all those in places, you know,
- 28:36what else can I do? Then other little micronutrients become important. And so
- 28:41sometimes what happens is that people have Scientists are bad for this, right because
- 28:45we have decades and decades of historical knowledge, but it feels boring, like,
- 28:49you know, I got to come up with something new. To talk
- 28:51about it, like, I can't talk about this old stuff forever because you
- 28:53know what am I? You know what am I getting paid for it?
- 28:56I've got to come up with a new idea, Right, So we end
- 29:00up getting really caught in the weeds, like this gene and that gene and
- 29:04this particular metabolit is going to be, you know, a miracle, and
- 29:10when we forget the real basics and stuff like those can be very valuable,
- 29:14especially if you're taking care of all the rest. And that's where programs come
- 29:15in. Okay, So the program basically says, one thing we know the
- 29:19most accurately defined human condition is health. If you go online you look at
- 29:26you know, biomarcus for Parkinson's or biomarkers for diabetes. Well, it's always
- 29:30going to be controlled to a normal population. So like a normal population or
- 29:33healthy population is always the control arm of every single trial. Right. And
- 29:38so we get focused on the car accident and we lose sight of the operational
- 29:44car on the other side. And what I've done basically says, you know
- 29:48what, let's not focus on the car accident. Let's focus on the functionality
- 29:52of the car so we can understand health and I don't need I don't need
- 29:56to wait for my engine disease. I already know that if my engine oil
- 30:00is low, that's bad. I don't have to wait for a cardiovaster event.
- 30:04I don't have to wait for my vision to get blurry. I don't
- 30:07have to wait okay for neuropathy. Okay, I can intervene at the deviation
- 30:14from health stage. I don't need to know, you know, because that
- 30:18can happen. There can be multiple consequences from one thing. And so that's
- 30:23where the program testing comes in, right, is saying we know what the
- 30:29healthy optional optional function is like that that is actually not ambiguous. We know
- 30:34it now. What the hard part is we don't always know exactly how to
- 30:37fix every single thing in the world, but fundamentally, conceptually, it's just
- 30:41now a matter of that's where our scientific minds come in. And so the
- 30:45plasmalogens are one of those really high up on the food chain. They're on
- 30:49that water nitrogen level type of thing. They're one of the core components that
- 30:55really affect our aging. So it's one of the places you want to start,
- 30:59you know, good nutrition, your B vitamins and your mitochondrial health.
- 31:03Obviously that's that's key. But the plasm mallagens are a big, big hammer,
- 31:07And the reason why they're a big hammer is because we're so dependent on
- 31:11them and we have rutually no nutritional supply of them. And how come goodness
- 31:17started to get interrupted? But how come you don't hear more about plasm malagens?
- 31:21And like I said, until I met you, I never read anything
- 31:25about a plasm malagen as a as a mechanism for improving one's health. And
- 31:30so why do you think it's been kept this kind of a mystery in the
- 31:34and you know more of I mean, I'm just I'm just this to blame
- 31:38for this. As I look. I have a PhD in neurochemistry, studying
- 31:42brain chemistry. Okay, I never heard of plasm malagens until I saw them
- 31:47on the mass spectrometer. Then I started looking at this stuff and I said,
- 31:49well, you know what, there's some rare diseases with plast malagen deficiencies.
- 31:52And the reason why I escaped the general medical community is because typically we're
- 31:59pretty good at it. We're pretty good and robust at making these things,
- 32:01and the analytical technology to measure them is hard, and they really really only
- 32:07really affect us late in life, and so the study of age associated diseases
- 32:12is not that long. Most of medicine has been focused on acute issues,
- 32:17right, And what we've done a really good job over the last hundred years
- 32:21is increasing the average time of death. Right, So average lifespans have gone
- 32:28up dramatically because we have done a very good job of reducing premature death,
- 32:34but maximum lifespans have virtually been unchanged, so we haven't been able to increase
- 32:39lifespan, and that really is a different situation. So plus, malagins are
- 32:43one of those critical things. I found them on the mass spectrometer. I
- 32:45started doing research and I'm going, my goodness, gracious, like this is
- 32:50there's like thirty percent of this stuff is your brain, your hearts, your
- 32:53lungs. Children you know, young children have grown that are born prematurely and
- 32:59they'll have bron Field displa asia, will have plasm malgin deficiencies. So it's
- 33:02there, but it was kind of just buried. It's kind of going into
- 33:06a town and going downtown and seeing a bowling alley walking in there and see
- 33:10there's all these people bolling, and I just people still bowl Wow, there's
- 33:14a whole world like and that's the biochemistry and science is the same way.
- 33:19Everyone gets their own field, and very very often a specialty field will just
- 33:25be there in its own little world about anyone knowing. Did you find it?
- 33:30You had a lot of resistance with the in the allopathic even in the
- 33:34regenerative medicine world, when you introduce this concept of a plasma. Really it's
- 33:42the awareness is growing quite dramatically. The reality is that the results are really
- 33:45dramatic, like an autism, like we see children getting better in literally weeks.
- 33:50Like I just talked to one of my doctors yesterday and he said he
- 33:52had a three year old autistic child, completely nonverbal, been on mitochondrial support
- 33:58in the plasma elagins, and in three weeks he's speaking twenty five words.
- 34:01Okay, right, this is crazy things I got. I got children with
- 34:07terminal lucudystrophies that their brains are remielinating in their own plasmauageins. I got little
- 34:13children that you've seen videos of a little thatcher. He has a rare disease
- 34:15of our CDP. He couldn't walk, he was in a wheelchair, he
- 34:19couldn't communicate, he runs and plays with his with his brothers. Now we
- 34:23have significant improvement in dementia. So the doctors they have when they start using
- 34:31them. That's the nice thing about it, it's there's an academic side of
- 34:35it. Intellectually, I can say, yes, here's the science, here's
- 34:37the logic, here's how it's supposed to work. But when you put it
- 34:42in your real world situation and people see it themselves, it really is hard
- 34:46to We're programmed not to believe you can cure anything or people. We're programmed
- 34:52not to believe people get better. So soon start noticing that it doesn't take
- 34:58very long for them to get convinced. Well, So how does a client,
- 35:01a patient increase their plast malagens? What is the protocol that you use
- 35:07for accomplishing that task. So one of the challenge with these plasm mallagens is
- 35:13that I tell you there's a whole bunch in your heart, there's whole bunch
- 35:15in the brain. So if I eat a nice juicy steak, why am
- 35:19I not eating plast malagens? Right? Why can't I eat food? Supply?
- 35:22And the problem is the very last step in their manufacturer creates this very
- 35:25acid sensitive bond and so you can't eat plast malagens otherwise the product. So
- 35:31I'm a chemist, So what I designed is a precursor, and that's what
- 35:35human breast milk is designed for. So humans, our bodies have been smart
- 35:38enough to know this themselves. So human breast milk make the mother makes plast
- 35:45malagen precursors, not the actual plast malagen that are highly absorbed enter the brain.
- 35:49And so I design molecules based upon human breast milk plast mallagen precursors that
- 35:55can target two different types. One is targeting the synapse, like the the
- 36:00signaling rate. These are the that's called protom Neural is a brand need and
- 36:04has high levels of DHA and it's for increasing cognition, increasing neuromuscular function,
- 36:09and it increases reverse chlesteral transport that type of thing. And then the other
- 36:14one is that protective coding goes around your axons, and that's the omegan ninelic
- 36:20acid version of the plasmallogens, and that is for myelination and that's what we
- 36:23use for multiple scrosses for autism, for improve sleep, improves that type of
- 36:31memory, and so that's the brand name the glia, right, right,
- 36:39and so that's why. So that's why getting it in highly concentrated forms that
- 36:45you can supplement yourself and restore it. So that's what happened for me personally.
- 36:50Right. So when I did my before and after brain scans, I
- 36:52was taking higher doses of the plasmaagen precursors and I was able to backfill,
- 36:59if you will. I was able to reverse the gradual loss of plasmalogins that
- 37:05was occurring in me. And that and so we have that kind of doctor.
- 37:09So that's kind of where that's that's how you get plast malagans back into
- 37:12your system. Okay, so the protom scan the one that you had me
- 37:16do, which I will get the results I think next week. But when
- 37:21you do that scan as a as a patient of your clinic, what are
- 37:25the bio markets, what are other than what you just describe, What are
- 37:29the the the results that you're going to see by having that scan done that
- 37:35will help you to protocol. So what I did when I designed the protom
- 37:39scan test is I cherry picked all the really the core components of physiological health
- 37:45of a human being and kind of format that a doctor can look at and
- 37:52get a twenty thousand or thirty thousand foot view of the individual. Okay,
- 37:55these start. What are the problems with science is that people will take one
- 38:00biomarker and the one to make a big interpretation like just your homo system alone,
- 38:04for example, or your cholesterol level, and they'll try to use one
- 38:07biomarker and interpret the whole story. And that's not an accurate way of looking
- 38:12at a complex system like the human body. So protub scan looked at this
- 38:15membrane structure and function. That can mention to those fossil lippets that are critical
- 38:20for membrane structure and function. It measures those in the accurate way. Because
- 38:24there's there's certain molecules that are really strong epidemiological risk factors fospil, coaline.
- 38:31For example, people think of Steve Jobs, he died of pancreatic cancer.
- 38:35Without even measuring his blood, I can guarantee that he had a coaline deficiency
- 38:38because virtually all pancreatic cancer suffers are coalinge deficient before they get pancreatic cancer.
- 38:45So he measure the coaling levels and it's a critical thing. Especially people that
- 38:47are strict vegetarians. They can have challenges getting the right nutrients in their body.
- 38:52Like it's okay to be a vegetarian, but you gotta remember you are
- 38:53not a plant, okay, you are an actual mammal, so you have
- 38:58nutritional requirements that a mammal requires. So if you're not going to eat other
- 39:02mammals, you're going to have to make sure your food supply provides you with
- 39:07those components. So just be smart about it. And so that's Coolins are
- 39:10one of those issues that you sometimes don't get properly, you know. So
- 39:15doctor Goodnow, what's the best way to get fostatital coline? I know,
- 39:17I know lessin is has been touted, but there's some side effects for some
- 39:22people with soy. So how do you how do you improve sastratital coline orally?
- 39:30So that was a big challenge for me because there isn't a good source
- 39:35out there other than eggs. The only real good source is egg yolks.
- 39:39So actually this is good timing. I'm just launching an egg yolk oil supplement
- 39:45that has natural animal based fossil coin. The other sources are sunflower and but
- 39:54eggs. So the issue with the plant based or se oil based fossibel coin
- 40:01is that it has high levels of lenolic acid. Your omega six, Yeah,
- 40:06and it has the structure of the fossil coin is not natural to the
- 40:10human body. Now the body will eventually convert it, but it takes extra
- 40:15energy and you want so you want omega nine fossibel coin. That's what your
- 40:20body wants, right, because you don't have too much omega six in the
- 40:22body. That's one of the big enemies of the fish oils, right,
- 40:28is to balance the dja epa with more omega three and omega six is associated
- 40:35with the negative omega nine. One of the omegas that I was wondering about
- 40:40two is omega seven sea bucks or and do you do you recommend that as
- 40:45part of your protocol. No, it's it's a very small that those are
- 40:50traced. When people talk about fats and lipids, don't try to get your
- 40:57extra vitamins from those sources. Those are or nutrients. And so the issue
- 41:02there's three being ones. You want to keep your saturated fats, which are
- 41:07actually good for you. By the way, it's a total scam against saturated
- 41:10fat. This is the best way to think about it. Okay, So
- 41:15you have fat, like when you like your body makes you physically make fat
- 41:20oil. It's called triclyst rights, and it sends it to your fat cells.
- 41:23So the first question you might want to ask is, well, what
- 41:27if the human body has to make fat, what kind of fat does the
- 41:30human body want to make? And the type of fat that the human body
- 41:34makes is saturated fat that palmitic and stearic acid plus it will make a nine.
- 41:39Well, that's what the human body will make the store for later.
- 41:43So your fat cells are your gas tanks. Okay, your body basically stores
- 41:46energy with high density energy called fat triclist rights. That's what body basically stores.
- 41:54So that's what and so when you're looking for a nutritional perspective, this
- 41:58vague omega six dispersion that we've had really only happened in the last one hundred
- 42:02years. Okay, prior this is when the seed oil industries and it actually
- 42:06started with Crisco, with people trying to get get away with you know,
- 42:10how do we deal with all these cotton seeds from the corn from the cotton
- 42:15industry, And then you know, industry got better and better at it,
- 42:20and so we got all these will make a six. So we really didn't
- 42:22have a high will make a six diet at all until the last one hundred
- 42:25years. So the reason why fossil coin is so important is it drives your
- 42:28reverse cholesteral transport. Okay, so your HDL Okay, you're the quality of
- 42:32your HDL transport system is really driven by your fossil coaling system, and that's
- 42:37why coaling deficiencies are really bad, and that's why they have a high association
- 42:40with cancer rates. So that's why you want to get So you know,
- 42:45the plant based fossil coin is better than nothing, Okay. So I've been
- 42:50struggling with this because you know, it's better to get plant based fossil coin
- 42:53then be coaling deficient for sure. Okay, don't not take a plant based
- 42:59fossil coin. But it's just not ideal for the human body. So I've
- 43:01finally been able to design and manufacture and that's just I just I just actually
- 43:07announced it here in August, so it hasn't it. Actually, we haven't
- 43:12started shipping it yet, so by September we'll be shipping. I'd loved it.
- 43:16I'd love to get some of that. For sure. You can blend
- 43:20it with things like it mixes up and mixes anything up together, mixed movies
- 43:22with it. And so I had a question because when I read your book,
- 43:28I was really quite happy about this, but I wanted to ask you
- 43:32about it. You say that cholesterol, which of course the allopathic world tries
- 43:38to tell you to be two hundred or below, but you say in the
- 43:43low two hundreds or even to I think in one place in your book you
- 43:45said two twenty to two forty ideal level. But that's really going against,
- 43:52of course, the pharmaceutical industry that wants to sell you more stat and drugs,
- 43:55and so they lower it. But of course we people who are studying
- 44:00this, no, the cholesterol is actually good. It's it's just the size
- 44:04of your particles and and the bad cholesterol that can you know, you know,
- 44:09block your arteries. But but you're focused on the cholesterol absolute plus the
- 44:15HDL, which is the transport. So can you just give us some markers
- 44:20of what to look for in our blood work, So it's two twenty to
- 44:25two forties, then don't get the quick shortlist. So we talked about we
- 44:29started, we got on a sidetrack with the progom scan. But let's talk
- 44:30about because cholesterol is in the progom scan test. Yes, yeah, the
- 44:35whole this obsession with little cholesterol is probably one of the biggest health scams ever.
- 44:39Okay, it's just not true. Like the epidemiological data is undeniable.
- 44:45It is extremely robust. People with cholesterol between two twenty and two forty have
- 44:50the longest lifespans, full stop period. As soon as your total cholesterol level
- 44:53gets below two hundred, you're all cost mortality goes up. That's just an
- 44:57absolute fact. It's not even up for question. So the question now becomes,
- 45:01where did all of this statin cholesterol lowering concept, Like, why do
- 45:06we how do this even get in to our mindset? If this epidemiology is
- 45:10so damn clear, how could we even remotely get into this mess that we're
- 45:15in. And the reality is is that oxidized LDL okay, when you have
- 45:20oxidative stress, okay, and cholesterol, which is not the cholesterol but the
- 45:23LDL particle that carries cholesterol. That's a whole different conversation about different chlestero particles
- 45:29getting the weeds, and they forget about the big issue is that when you
- 45:32have oxidaid stress and you get oxidized LDL okay, that is pro athrogenic,
- 45:38so it'll promote asclerosis. And so what the geniuses in the pharmaceutical industry did
- 45:45is they emit the molecule called statins. And what statins do is they block
- 45:50your cell's ability to make chlesterol. Okay, but your body needs cholesterol.
- 45:53It's one of the it's probably the most one of the most important molecules of
- 45:55the entire human body. Right but and you also need it for your hormones.
- 46:00All your hormones come from cholesterol, like you know, many of them.
- 46:04So anyway, so it stands they block your cells ability to make cholesterol,
- 46:07and so it forces all your cells to suck cholesterol to the blood supply
- 46:09because they can't make their own, they have to pull it in. And
- 46:13that's why how that's how cholesterol, that's how statins lower your LVL. And
- 46:16so if I, if I, if I force yourselves to take up all
- 46:19this cholesterol, it will bring in any kind of oxidized LDL that you have.
- 46:24So and this has been proven very very unambiguously in the clinical literature.
- 46:29Statins have no positive impact on cardiovascar outcomes people with low oxidative stress. Only
- 46:37if you have a high CRP Okay, will the statins have an outcome?
- 46:42Well, you know what, there's lots of ways to lower in your CRP
- 46:45without us. So bottom line is if you keep your oxidative stress level,
- 46:49low cholesterol levels are completely benign to the human body and actually long term.
- 46:54So the other things that let me, let me give you some really high
- 46:58points for people we have limited time. The other one that you can get
- 47:01on your regular lab test you put in the proto scamp, but you can
- 47:04get it anywhere is your creating it. Now, they measure this for your
- 47:08kidney function, but it's more important than high creatin. Of course, really
- 47:13really high is bad because your kidneys are feeling. But for most of us
- 47:15looking for longevity and health and vitality, it's low creating. It a low
- 47:21creating and dries muscle wasting in the elderly. And it's one of the most
- 47:24critical biomarkers that we don't take advantage of. And it's so easy to fix.
- 47:30You just go to the healthful story and creating it. Okay, it's
- 47:34cheapest dirt comes in a big bucket, okay, and take creatin creatine.
- 47:38So creatine is something that everybody over the age of forty should be on period
- 47:43full stop. And when it does, it does two things. Not only
- 47:45does it restore the fossil creatine and your muscles, which is critical, which
- 47:51is where this creating it comes from. And then but it also reduces your
- 47:54homo system levels because your mental trends, like your body makes your body will
- 47:59make to five grams of creating every day for your body, your muscles,
- 48:02your brain. We use it for short term energy and it's a really high
- 48:07metaball demand. So if you take creating as a supplement, what you're doing
- 48:13is you're you're relieving, You're taking the pressure off your own internal system.
- 48:16So creating supplementation is a must for anyone who wants good health, healthy muscle
- 48:22growth and development as to get older, because muscle wasting is a big thing.
- 48:25You think taking it as a powder is better than a capsule and the
- 48:30creating because it's hard. It's just so hard to get enough capsules. I
- 48:35take my creating with my morning coffee, like I just mixes with anything,
- 48:37so and that's where I put it in my coffee in the morning. And
- 48:40yours is a powder. Who who's whose brand do you like? Oh,
- 48:44it doesn't really matter. Just the creating mono manoa monohydrate anything they call it.
- 48:52Yeah, but people people say they get a stomach disorder, a stomach
- 48:55upset sometimes with creatine. So that's why I asked you is the one.
- 49:00There's a whole bunch of versions out there. Basically, you find one that
- 49:04you work with, like I just use seriously, I use the bulk,
- 49:07yeah, mono hydrate. But if you have an adverse reaction, look try
- 49:12a different one. Like there's creatine hydrochloride. Again, all these manufacturers are
- 49:15always gonna they're always trying to compete with each other, so they're always going
- 49:17to have one gimmick or another. And so the trick is you find one
- 49:21that works for you. But creating want to hydrate it's around forever. Chances
- 49:24are half these manufacturers probably using the same core manufacturer. They're just putting different
- 49:29label on the damn things anyways. So that's that's one thing. So creatine
- 49:32keep an eye on that. It'll also if you're having a hard time getting
- 49:36your homo system down, you're taking your B vitamins and B twelve and folate,
- 49:38you're doing all this stuff right, and your homo systeine levels keep on
- 49:43staying high and I'm doing everything right. What's wrong with it? Probably because
- 49:45you're creating deficient okay, and if you're deficient, then that's that's also means
- 49:52just flash for tital coline. It's going to be off well because yeah,
- 49:55because the mental transfer system makes your own. So that's that's the other reason
- 50:00why fossible coin subpmentation is so important because it takes the pressure off your bodies.
- 50:06It's not considered an essential nutrient because your body can make it, but
- 50:09it's a lot of energy to make it. So why don't you give your
- 50:12body a bit of a hand and give it some stuff for free? Okay,
- 50:15you know, let let the damn chicken make the fossible coin for you.
- 50:20So and so then and then that's where you kind of go. And
- 50:22then the next big thing is you're fasting triglist rides. This is another big
- 50:25thing that people don't get right. Right, your fasting triclist rides under a
- 50:29hundred. You don't want to weigh down and you know anorexia forties and fifties,
- 50:34but you want to be in that sixty to ninety range. Yeah,
- 50:37you go in and you get your fasting triclist rides and they're one hundred and
- 50:39twenty, they're gonna say, oh, you're normal. Or but when your
- 50:44triglist rides are over one hundred, you're gonna anyone will have a very hard
- 50:46time losing weight because what you're doing is you're recycling your fat. Yeah,
- 50:52the triclist ride. So the triglist rides, Okay, that's fat. Like
- 50:55the triclist rides in your blood. That's like olive oil on your cover.
- 50:59It's fundamentally it's exactly the same molecule as the olive oil in your covered.
- 51:02So what your body is doing is you're eating and it's storing energy for later.
- 51:07So what you're supposed to your body has two gears. It has a
- 51:08fed gear in a fasting gear. So when you eat a meal, that's
- 51:12when you go to the gas station and you're filling up with the gas,
- 51:15right, and it's filling a gas tank up, and the gas tank is
- 51:17all these little fat cells in your body. That's your gas tank for later.
- 51:21And so once the short term energy of your meal, like once your
- 51:24gut digests the food, okay, at a certain period of time, your
- 51:29body switches to a fasting state and then at that time it switches and all
- 51:32of a sudden, your fat cells start releasing fatty acids for your energy,
- 51:37like your whole body, and your body fundamentally wants to run in the fasting
- 51:40state, and this is what prevents a lot of cancers is just maintaining the
- 51:44fasting state. So if you're in the fasting state and your fat cells are
- 51:50releasing all these fatty acids to all the cells of your body, and if
- 51:53your triglyst riders are over one hundred, those cells are taking the fatty acids
- 51:57saying oh, I can't take all this stuff, and there is recycling it.
- 52:00They're turning it back into the triglist rice and they're sending about your fat
- 52:04cells. So getting your triglist rights under a hundred are critical because it indicates
- 52:09that you are in a good you're metabolically efficient. If you have fasting triglist
- 52:15rice over a hundred, your body is metabolically inefficient. It's like driving down
- 52:21the highway with the guy in front of with the smoke coming out the back
- 52:22of his pail tail pipe. That's what your body's doing. If your triglyst
- 52:25rize over a hundred, your body's just smoking it's recycling stuff. Well,
- 52:30I have a question for you. So, just in my own situation,
- 52:32I did my blood work in March, and then I did something again the
- 52:36other day just to do a follow up and a very very exhaustive panel of
- 52:40blood tests that my regenerative regenerative medicine doctor requires. So anyway, ninety five
- 52:50trigostrize last time in March, and now they went up to one hundred and
- 52:53seventeen and justin free you know, the few months. So what did I
- 52:58do wrong? What? And what would happen? You know, what would
- 53:00you recommend to if people like me who suddenly they go from under one hundred
- 53:06to over one hundred? What did they do? So? Two things.
- 53:09So, one thing that is important is your neuromuscular health, like your skeletal
- 53:16muscle okay, so when people have improved proxysomal function. That so if you
- 53:23have, if you're doing everything right. But number one is this creatine thing
- 53:28and maintaining skeletal muscle mass. Okay. Your skeletal muscles are the main consumers
- 53:34your heart for example, these are main consumers of your fatty acids. That's
- 53:38what happens with aging as a general, aging aging as a disease. No,
- 53:43what happens is you start losing skeletal muscle mass, and your body,
- 53:46those skeletal muscles are no longer eating these fatty acids, and so your body,
- 53:52your fat cells don't know any different. They're still releasing it, but
- 53:55you're you don't have the muscle capacity to burn them up, and so your
- 53:59cell step recycling it. So skeleton muscle, mitochondrial health like the carnatines,
- 54:04like the anacetal systeine. Yeah, if your mitochondrial health gets impaired, then
- 54:12rack list rids will creep up a little bit, right, And but don't
- 54:15get obsessed. That's not super bad, okay where you're at, and it
- 54:17could be on any given Sunday. And I, you know, that's what
- 54:22we have our own labs because you know, I like to trust. I
- 54:25don't. I'm a very suspicious, untrusting person when it comes to kind of
- 54:30work, and so I like it. It's normal normal for what you know.
- 54:34They when they put these on the lab tests, they're they're really quite
- 54:37can be quite misleading as Yeah, so I'm really excited to get your tests.
- 54:44Like, think about normal vitamin Like if we use normal levels for vitamin
- 54:47D. Okay, nobody would be on the proper vitamin D salpmentation because the
- 54:52natural normal levels are all low. Okay, So and so that's that happened.
- 54:58That's what happens with track list riders. But in the opposite way,
- 55:00and how those numbers come up is all these lab tests. Okay, they
- 55:06were originally designed for acute care medicine. Right there. You know, you've
- 55:09got a person in an acts, in a situation, or a serious health
- 55:14condition, and they're looking for how do I diagnose a disease? Right?
- 55:19They have? They're not they were never designed for diagnosing health. There were
- 55:23to diagnose a disease. So if you have a serious problem and you trick
- 55:28liscerizer at three hundred or something, right, and your blood looks like it's
- 55:30white, that's what it looks like. If it's got hyperp lipidemic, then
- 55:37you got a serious problem, right, they could have. You could have
- 55:38a cute liver failure or something like that. That's where these blood tests were
- 55:42designed to look at these really really high levels, and so epidemiologically, you
- 55:47know, getting trick listrizers a risk factor. They're not looking at optimized health.
- 55:52They're looking at outcomes for disease end points. That's why these blood test
- 56:00measurements, so the create the creatinin right, you measure that for kidney clearance.
- 56:06The other one that people misuse is uric acid. Okay, this is
- 56:09another thing. This obsession with low uric acid has got to stop. Also,
- 56:14high uric acid is bad. Like if it gets way high gout Okay,
- 56:17just a little little little nugget of information. Gout have higher intelligence than
- 56:24non gelic So people uric acid have higher levels of intelligence than non and that's
- 56:30because uric acid is basically an indicator of your NAD levels. So you don't
- 56:35want super high levels because that would be gout. Okay, but uric acid
- 56:37is like the human body vitamin C. Low levels are far more dangerous.
- 56:44Low levels are found in Parkinson's and multiple scrosses and Alzheimer's and so low levels
- 56:47of uric acid are really highly associated with neurological insufficiencies and usually any d deficiency.
- 56:55So take and you can take some of these simple items like just hyacinth,
- 57:00like a lot of this. And that's the problem with some of this
- 57:04advanced nutrition is that some of these solutions are old. Yeah, and they
- 57:09and their cheapest dirt to you. And so as a company is in an
- 57:15industry like how do you make how do you make a profit selling stuff that
- 57:19has been around for a hundred years and it's it's it's cheap, cheap,
- 57:22cheap, And so people are always trying to find some little nuance to differentiate
- 57:28themselves in the marketplace. And some of those stuffs are valuable, right,
- 57:30but a lot of it, you know, in an short term thing.
- 57:35But when you're talking about longevity and you're thinking about I want to live for
- 57:37the next three hundred years, so I'm gonna I'm gonna be taking something not
- 57:40I don't really care about the one week effect of something like I want the
- 57:45multiyear effects. So if I have if I take the proper B vitamins for
- 57:49a proper period of time, my body should get equilibrated to that. Right,
- 57:54And I'm interested in having the things that my body naturally wants to have,
- 58:00Okay, Like what are the natural intermediates in our food supply? What
- 58:04are the natural intermediates in our own human biochemistry? And so how do we
- 58:07how do we engineer ourselves not try to outsmart the human body, but actually
- 58:14just try to say, I just want to figure it out and just I
- 58:16just want to give it what it's asking for. So I want to me,
- 58:20I want to I want to be able to listen to the body.
- 58:22I want to say, please tell me what you're missing. Like how does
- 58:24a body tell me what it's missing? We can tell me is through advanced
- 58:29blood testing. That's how the that's how the body talks to me, it
- 58:32says, that's how it tells me, because it can't go to the grocery
- 58:36store and pick out a bottle of ice cream versus a bottle of coconut milk,
- 58:39like it can't tell the difference. Like that's my job. But it
- 58:43can at least tell me what's going wrong. But if I'm not listening to
- 58:46that person, okay, I can't I can't do anything. I can't help
- 58:51I can't help my body if I don't listen to my body. And that's
- 58:53our job as and so that's what I'm trying to you know, And it's
- 58:58a lifelong ambition because you know, and we pick try to pick away one
- 59:00at a time the best we can start with the big issues. And you'd
- 59:06be surprised how often you fix a couple of the big issues, and all
- 59:08these little issues go away, right, information, shoulder pain, psoriasis,
- 59:15eximas, some of these things that you know you've been fighting forever with this
- 59:19cream and that cream and the other thing, and all of a sudden,
- 59:22your internal biochemistry is working properly, right, that goes away. Yeah,
- 59:27And you know, one thing on nice and I think we should tell people
- 59:30that it is better to take the flush nice and even though it's a little
- 59:34uncomfortable after you take it, but it does far more good than the non
- 59:37flush, right that. And I think you mentioned to me that you take
- 59:42nice and flush, and I was really happy to hear that because I hate
- 59:45I hate it when I take it that I feel that kind of frickliness and
- 59:52maybe a little bit cold, even though it's wormed out. You know,
- 59:54you get that kind of body temperature thing. But knowing that it's doing the
- 59:59good that it does, the circulation effect and the cholesterol diminishing are the bad
- 1:00:06cholesterol diminishing, it's really good at getting your h DAIL levels up. Yeah.
- 1:00:09I have the same way, like the flushing is uncomfortable, Like I've
- 1:00:14built my like I take five hundred million grounds a day, and a lot.
- 1:00:19Obviously, I can't take it before my podcast with you other a huge
- 1:00:22red face, right, So part of it when you know when you're going
- 1:00:24to the office or you're going to work, right. I did this a
- 1:00:28couple of times. I go to a meeting and they think I'm gonna have
- 1:00:30a heart attack, are going to pass out because I got this big red
- 1:00:32flush on me so days. So so those days I take my I try
- 1:00:37to take it at night, right, and then then nobody sees the flushing
- 1:00:40because it's gone by morning. But yeah, it's that's the challenge is fitting
- 1:00:45it in your day. But it does look like you have a great sun
- 1:00:47time when you take it that I have had people comment on that. Although
- 1:00:51I'm very uncomfortable, I know that it's making my face look like glowing,
- 1:00:54you know. So that I spoke with Jessica today or assistant and so kindly
- 1:01:00and generously made an offer for you. I hope you don't mind. And
- 1:01:04maybe she hasn't spoken to you, but she did. First ten people that
- 1:01:08are listening today or viewing this podcast, if they contact me at my website,
- 1:01:15which I'll tell you in a minute, and I'll have it flashed on
- 1:01:17the screen that the first ten people that use the age with code will get
- 1:01:22your book for free. Act did you know about that? Yeah, she
- 1:01:27sent me an email. Okay, okay, problem, that sounds great.
- 1:01:32Okay, So for everyone that's listening my website, I mean my email is
- 1:01:37the Michelle Hughes Company at gmail dot com. And Michelle is with one L
- 1:01:44and an E, and company is spelled out singular, So the Michelle Hughes
- 1:01:49Company at gmail dot com. We'll flash that on the screen when we edit
- 1:01:52the tape. And and so if you want that book and you're the one
- 1:01:57of the first ten, I'll be keeping count, call me and I'll let
- 1:02:00doctor Goodnow's office know. So anyway, I just want to be sure we
- 1:02:05got that in. So, Doctor Goodnow, I think we're going to need
- 1:02:08to do a follow up because I watched your presentation the other day that you
- 1:02:13so kindly sent me, and there was so many things that you said that
- 1:02:16are even more current than your book that you know, so you're you're you're
- 1:02:22moving target. Of course, you're a scientist, so there's always going to
- 1:02:27be a new discovery, and you have so many patents, and so would
- 1:02:30it be okay if maybe like in six months or so, we could do
- 1:02:35a follow up with you. That would be great. I love it and
- 1:02:37well, and people can follow my research at doctor goodenow dot com. There's
- 1:02:43always something going on there and they can order your products that you have to
- 1:02:46do it through a physician. Correct if they want to get dot com they're
- 1:02:50they're the plus Mountains something. They're all dietary shuffling, so they are there
- 1:02:52are commercial there are you know, private available Okay, okay, they can
- 1:02:58order it off, but they can come to your company as well. Yeah.
- 1:03:04I always recommend like one of the practicing positions because it's just nice to
- 1:03:07have a guide in your path, like there's no harm in doing it yourself.
- 1:03:10And we have a large you know, Facebook groups with children with autism
- 1:03:15or parents with autism and so on. So yeah, so now we're we
- 1:03:20want to help as many people as we can, So solutions are we try
- 1:03:23to make as many solutions available to as many people as possible. And you
- 1:03:27know, big hearts and and lots of lots of love and desire to give
- 1:03:30back and and doing so through you know, very solid science and it's just
- 1:03:38making a huge difference in the world. So thank you. Thank you.
- 1:03:42Thank you for everything you've done and all your your research since nineteen ninety.
- 1:03:46I guess it was right that you became. So there's a impassions right all
- 1:03:52of this. So all right, well we have a date. I'll you
- 1:03:54know, definitely, let you know in six months and then I'll be talking
- 1:03:58to you next week and about my other the test results. Okay, look
- 1:04:02forward to it. Thank you very much, Michelle. Okay, thank you
- 1:04:05so much again. Take care, I have a beautiful all right, by bye,
