  Speaker 1: back to the episode.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Welcome to Revealing Wholeness podcast dedicated to revealing the profound
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: connections between body, mind, and spirit, where we believe that
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: true wellness arises from addressing the root causes of our
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: health challenges, not just masking the symptoms. Here we dive
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: deep into how holistic approaches such as advanced chiropractic care,
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: personalized nutrition, and natural healing practices can transform your life.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Now Here is doctor Troy.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: Hello and welcome. I'm doctor Troy. This is our third
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: and final installment in our Male Hormone Can Tion All
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: podcast series, and we've been through all kinds of prostate stuff,
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: but we're getting to a bit more of a difficult situation,
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: and that is decreased sexual function because of what possibly
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: could be prostate, but it's often other causes. But we'll
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: still go through it and at least gives some ideas
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: of where to look and how to begin to work
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: on things yourself as well. Now, if you haven't ever
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: heard of this, the prostate is basically a small gland
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: that sits roughly at the base of the penis, so
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: it's inside the body because the base of the penis
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: extends far inside the body the muscle does, and it
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: wraps around the urethra, or the tube that urine comes
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: from the bladder out through the penis, so it wraps
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: around that tube. And if it enlarges, now we have
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: all kinds of difficulty urinating, dribbling, infections, all kinds of
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: things that can happen, and urinary retention would probably be
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: one of the worst things you could have. Now, if
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: we have an increased size of the prostate, we often
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: are unfortunately increased or rather having increased levels of dihydroxy
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: testosterone or DHT, and this is a more potent form
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: of testosterone. And ultimately this increased production is happening at
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: the prostate site, which means that we have some mineral
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: deficiencies and some fats that are very much lacking. And
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: so if we look at testosterone directly, testosterone is technically
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: made from cholesterol, and so it is a type of steroid,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: but it's considered mostly a fat soluble hormone. And so
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: as we look at that, we want good fats bathing
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: the prostate in what it needs. And those good fats
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: come from butter oil or flaxied oil. They're both alpha
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: letolytic acid, so ALA. Now we can take other Omega
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: three fats and we hand convert them into ALA, but
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: it's best to have in the diet a bunch of ALA. Now,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: just to give you some of the numbers, it is
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: quite actually high that men between the age of forty
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: and sixty, about fifty to sixty percent of them will
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: have some type of benign prosthetic hypertrophy. And so once
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: we get to the age of eighty, it's about ninety
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: percent of men and on biopsy, meaning that when a
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: man has passed away, it is incredibly high how many
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: will have prostate cancer seventy five percent. Now, in my
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: earlier podcast, I said that they believe that no man
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: will die of natural causes that will not have prostate cancer.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: And so I've seen research that says that it's a
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: very low percentage of pain in the prostate that's really
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: due to infection. And as I've said in the past,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: if you have pain somewhere, you have cell death. And
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: if you have cell death, you have a disease process.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: And if you have a disease process, you have an infection. Now,
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: while they may not have been able to locate the infection,
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: that disease process in the prostate that's painful is most
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: likely still infection, and I'm going to treat it as such.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to skimp on the possibility of trying
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: to find some type of bug and you know, figure out,
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: oh yeah, you're out in infection. I'm just going to
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: treat it like an infection because as you treat something
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: like an infection, you're simply going to help the tissue heal.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: And that is you know what it's all about. Now,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: The fact that you may have some type of prostate
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: issue that may be more due to a food allergy
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: is high and so you may want to be looking
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: at your diet quite closely and suspect foods or anything
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: that you feel drawn to, like you a crave or
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: that you have to have. Those are like in some
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: type of allergy, and not always, but they're a high
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: probability that that's where I'm going to look first, not
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: that you have to remove them, just to know that
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: they're a food allergy. And oftentimes if you have a
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: food that you suspect, my first recommendation is to upgrade
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: that food. Meaning let's give the example of coffee. Most
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: coffee is one of the most pesticide laden crops on
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: the planet, and it would be wise to go with
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: an upgrade like organic coffee, and then we would then
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: we would upgrade from a dark roast to a lighter
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: roast if you can tolerate it. And then we would
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: upgrade it from a caffeinated to a decaffeinated if you
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: can tolerate that. And a water decaffeination process would be ideal,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: not an arsenic decaffeination process. So those are just ideas
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: as we go for what we call upgrades. I'm not
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: expecting you to totally get rid of the food, but
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: there should be some desire to figure out, hey, can
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I upgrade this to its highest level so it's as
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: little least damaging to me as possible. And so may
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: be some of the chemicals on the plant that actually
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: are causing some of the issues that you're experiencing, So
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: we want to always go organic with whatever it is
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: you're eating or whatever you suspect as being a quote
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: unquote allergen. Now for the big part of the talk.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: So we spent the first like four or five minutes
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: talking about the possibility that decreased sexual function is prostate involvement,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: which it certainly can be part of it. But the
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: big part for any kind of sexual dysfunction in a
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: man is going to be blood sugar. I know, nobody
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: wanted to hear it. Nobody wanted to be told that
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: they're eating too much sugar and that they're eating too
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: much bread and pasta and crackers and chips and everything
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: that we love to eat, you know, bananas that have
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: lots of sugar. You know, whatever it is. And so
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: if we're going to go after blood sugar, and you're
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: listening to this and you look in the mirror and
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: your belly is a bit bigger than it should be,
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: and you feel like maybe I've packed on some weight
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: that high a one and see that my doctor's been
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: telling me I'm pre diabetic or now I'm maybe full
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: blown diabetic. There's part of your issue. And so to
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: come back from diabetes and from blood sugar mismanagement or imbalance.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: It is not an easy process. Now, it's not very complicated,
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: and it's really rather simple, but it's not necessarily easy
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: because who wants to stop eating what you love to
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: eat and start eating things like vegetables and good proteins
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: that are pastured animals and raw dairy and things that
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: would actually add to your life and begin to decrease
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: the weight on your body. And then the next step,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: of course, is to decrease the amount of caloric intake
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: until you actually find yourself starting to lose weight, or
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: at least on the cusp of doing so. But I
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: can guarantee that if you're a guy and you stop
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: all carbs, all sugar, and you're eating protein, fats, and vegetables,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: probably going to drop weight rather quickly right from the
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: get go. Every once in a while get a guy
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: who does not, but the vast majority of guys will
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: drop twelve to twenty pounds within the first two weeks
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: of removing all carbs, and their heart will be much happier.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Your vascular system will be much happier. Your digestive system
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: might be happier, but sometimes it may not be if
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: you find that, hey, I feel like I have a
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: more acid reflux. Now, that won't be shocking, because most
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: diabetics have very poor digestive systems. They just don't know it.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: They're craving sugars and things because they're very simple to digest,
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: and so the body can handle those because they're quite
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: acidic anyways, and they produce the wrong type of acid
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: in the gut, which then makes us want to ferment
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: foods in our stomach, and now we're burping up acid,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: which we call heartburn. And so with that, we want
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: to start assisting digestion. We want to start getting maybe
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: some calcium into your body to help balance blood sugar.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: We want to get some be vitamins into your body
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: because that's partly why your blood sugar raised in the first.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: If this is all new to you and you're like,
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: come on, this is a krack a crap, how does
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: this even work? How can he possibly know that? I
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: love going back to nature because God's pretty cool in
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: how he designs things. And so we look at sugar
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: cane and we process all the sugar out of sugar cane.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: It's brown. Why is sugar brown? Naturally? And not white
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: like we're so used to seeing it because white sugar.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: They've taken all the brown out of the sugar cane. Well,
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: what's the brown that they took out of the sugar cane.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: It's molasses. What's molasses, it's hive high, calcium, high magnesium, potassium,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: b vitamins, trace minerals, everything to help your body handle
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: the carbohydrates that nature put there. So God was not
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: stupid when he designed a sugar plant or sugar cane plant.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: He knew exactly what your body would likely need to
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: process all that sugar. And so the fact that you've
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: been eating white granulated sugar or white bread your entire
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: life and have stripped your body clean of calcium, trace minerals, magnesium, potassium,
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: and be vitamins, it's probably a wise move to go
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: back to that basis. So would molasses be considered a
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: multivitamin for a diabetic Yes, it would be. Oh my gosh,
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: it's got so much sugar. Though I know it's had
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: most of the sugar removed, but there is still some there.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: And at this point, I mean, come on, have you
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: stopped eating sugar? Is molasses really go slow you down?
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: Or you just don't like the taste, and it is.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: It's a very robust taste. So they I did a
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: podcast maybe a year and a half ago on the
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: different types of molasses, unsulfured black strap. You can go
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: listen to it and try to figure out, you know, hey,
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: which one do I want to go for. But the
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: blackstrap will have the least amount of sugar. It is
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: also the second or third cooking, depending on how it's done,
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: and so sometimes the unsulfured might be just a hair
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: less processed even though it has a little bit more sugar,
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: probably better for you. Well, I'll just eat molasses cookies. Yeah,
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: you could do that, but that's probably not the wisest
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: thing to do either. So to work on digestion, we're
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: going to be doing things like raw apple, cider vinegar
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: if you can handle it. If you can't, you need
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: to call my office and make an appointment. I don't
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: care where you are in the country. We can talk
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: on the phone and I can get things to you
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: that will help you digest. Protalytic enzymes if you wish,
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: other type of enzyme products that work incredibly well, as
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: well as trace mineral products so you don't have to
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: take molasses and you can just take it a pill,
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: and so there's always an easy way out of everything.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: But by and large, I would love to get things
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: in your diet first, because what you do all the
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: time is better to at least go after that. If
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: you're like, no, I'm not interested in doing that. So
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: once we get your diet and your lifestyle choices under control,
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: and we start losing weight, and we start getting you
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: some calcium, which is muscle tone, and again the penis
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: is muscle tone. And so if we start doing some
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: calcium and now we start all of a sudden waking
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: up with a morning erection, great, we're starting to get there.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: But if we still have benign prosthetic hypertrophy, we've got
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: to handle that too, with things like saw palmetto, with iodine,
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: with good fats, with some enzymes that will even help that.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: But taking pressure off the genotourinary system, we might have
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: some infection to work on. So these are the complications
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: when it comes to things like handling sexual dysfunction. It's
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: not just a one size fits all because each individual
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: has their own thing. And if you've got an infection
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: in your prostate, you probably have an infection in your pancreas,
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: which is why the islets of Langerhan don't want to
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: produce insulin and why you have diabetes. So we've got
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: multiple tissues that are typically unhappy when we're dealing with
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: a situation like this. Not that it cannot be done,
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: not that it cannot be helped. It all can be.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: It's just how much work are you willing to do?
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: And then once we feel like you've got that under
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: control and you're really doing things well, now we can
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: go after things like testosterone and trying to produce more
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: in your body so that you can burn fat even
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: better and have a more firm erection and begin to
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: watch the prostate heal even faster possibly and then feel
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: better and better even in your older age, which is
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: how we should be. We should feel quite amazing until
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: our mid sixties, even into seventy. We should feel as
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: good as we felt at twenty five into sixty five
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: and seventy. How many people feel that way, not too many,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: And those would be massive deficiencies in our body. And
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: so if you're there thinking I have massive deficiencies, yes
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: you might, but it can still be helped. At any age.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: You can still do this, and it's just what you
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: want to do. And so it's going after high octane
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: foods and really caring for your body and a bread
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: new way. And so men, we can do this. We
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: do hard things all the time. This is not that
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: big of a deal. And so if you really want
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: to be well and be healthy and get back sexual
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: function as well as maybe some prostrate health and some
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: bladder health, and some kidney health and some blood sugar
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: management health and some brain health, because it all goes together,
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: it can all be done. And you have somebody on
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: your side that would love to help you. I would
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: love to help you. Until next time, I'm doctor Troy.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: And remember there is way more right with you than
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: there is wrong with you.
