• 0:25
  Speaker 2: is let go. Now here's your host, doctor Troy Munson.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: Hello and welcome. I'm doctor Troy. I don't know if
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: you've been around a while listening to my podcast and
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: other nutritional podcasts, and every time you hear something spectacular,
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: you're just thinking, another supplement, I've got to take great.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: I kind of feel that way as I get deeper
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: and deeper into nutrition. But the ultimate goal of any
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: therapy and I don't even like the word therapy, but
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: as we progress down this road of understanding nutrition and
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: realizing that the bob's pretty amazing, it just needs a
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: little bit of help, meaning good nutrition. And this is
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: kind of one of those times when I'm going to
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: tell you some kind of amazing things about co Q
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: ten today, And the most glorious thing is it's actually
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: produced in your body if you have the right nutrients.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: So if you've caught some of my podcasts in the past,
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: they're on vitamin K two. It is also produced in
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: the body, and if our gut bacteria is good, we
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: produce K two. Well, every cell of our body produces
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: co q ten and it needs a significant amount of
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: nutrients to do so. So rather than having to eat
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: thousands of pills a day or some amazing amount of
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: food that you just can't seem to do, sit back, relax,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: and let's talk about co q ten. So there's some
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: things with coq ten. Wouldn't it be nice if we
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: could do a blood test, Well, they're they're not real
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: good yet. It would be nice if they had some
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: really good blood tests that weren't so expensive. But they're
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: only so great. And the problem is that co q
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: ten being used in the body, we don't see a
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: fair amount in the blood, though they do measure small
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: amounts in the blood, and so there are measurements that say, hey,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: you may or may not need to add coq ten
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: to your diet. So with coq ten, we actually make
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: it in ourselves, like we said, and it requires lots
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: of B vitamins B two, B three, B five, B six,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: BE twelve, the full import of the entire vitamin C complex,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: So not just ascorbic acid and folic acid, another type
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: of B vitamin. Now, in addition to that, a couple
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: of trace elements are there. And when I read research
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: on these trace elements, they actually don't know. They just
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: know that it requires a bit more. So there may
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: be phyto nutrients out there that science has not even
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: caught up or isolated, and there may be trace minerals
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: that are hugely important in the production of co q ten.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: And ultimately we depend on a diet then to do that. Now,
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: if you're just hearing about co q ten on this
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: particular podcast, or you may have heard reference to co
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: q ten in the past, here's a little short history.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: It was discovered in the nineteen seventies and by the
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: eighties they were actually able to produce it in a
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: lab and they've done tests on it. But here's the trouble,
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: and this is why you don't hear anything on co
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: q ten. Because it is made inside the body, you
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: can't patent it. So if I can't patent it, says
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: a drug company, then I am doing any tests on
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: it because I can't make any money on it. And
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: therefore we are now left wondering how important is co
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Q ten. Now the research is out because they do
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: some research on heart and it is profoundly effective in
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: many different types of heart conditions. Now, if you remember
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: back from K two, it too was very important in
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: heart conditions. And so I love putting things together that
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: makes sense, and I love even more when the body
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: produces both of them. So if I take a vitamin
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: C supplement, I am certainly not going to do it
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: in terms of ascorbic acid because that is one component
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: of the entire complex that I must get from nature.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: God did his job right, and he did it beautifully,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: and that's why we eat food. So if we take
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: one aspect of vitamin C, namely a scorbic acid, the
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: preservative portion of the vitamin C complex, and take that,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: how is that doing anything for us? You'd be right
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: and wondering the same thing, And you'd be also correct
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: in thinking it probably doesn't do much, and you're right,
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: it doesn't. It does a couple of things, but that's
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: not what we're here to talk about. We're here to
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: talk about if you take co q ten singly, because
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: the body produces it, it actually understands it in a
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: single form, and so it will use it quite well.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Same with K two. Since our gut bacteria produce it
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: as MK seven, we understand it in that single form
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: and it's ok to take it in a pill and
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: it can work quite beautifully. So with coq ten, I
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: still would recommend that you don't just think I'm going
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: to eat a crappy diet and take co q ten
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: and my heart's going to be fine. It would be
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: quite wise to make sure that your diet reflects doing
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: all the right things and then taking some coq ten
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: to perhaps heal your heart if you know you have
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: heart issues. And that is quite okay. So what does
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: co q ten actually help with? It is quite impressive
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: most autoimmune conditions. I would say it has a handle
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: in even lipid clearing in the blood. Like high LDLs,
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: the supposed fats we don't want, though I would be
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: hazardous to say that we probably do want them, and
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: I have expanded that in other podcasts as LDLs are
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: carriers of cholesterol from the liver to the cells so
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: that the cells can then make hormones, and then we
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: can have those hormones go to other cells that then
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: begin to heal. Ls have their purpose. They shouldn't be
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: looked down upon as bad or fearful. So it does
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: help normalize LDLs even cholesterol. Cholesterol is a reparative molecule.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: It is found in plaques because it is trying to
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: go to those plaques and actually help. It is not
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: the problem, but it has been vilified. So if we
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: have high cholesterol, chances are likely you may want to
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: do something about co Q ten. Now, there are other
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: conditions like diabetes and cancer that also show promise with
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: co Q ten. That in itself is something that at
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: least should shake us up and say, wait a minute,
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: what did you to say, maybe I should be taking
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: coq ten. Well, yes, in the beginning, but we really
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: want your diet to start providing the nutrients so that
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: you can Now if you think that buying canned, boxed, processed,
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: even bagged food, what do I mean when I say
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: bagged food? Does bread come in a bag? Yes?
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: It does.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: Do chips come in a bag? Yes they do. So
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: when we eat things that are highly processed, that heating
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: process tends to break down be vitamins. But unfortunately, in
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: the grocery store, most of the bread there was made
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: from flour that was already devoid of nutrition, and what
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: few vitamins they tried to throw back into quote unquote
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: fortify it. I love how will remove millions or else,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: probably not millions, but thousands upon thousands of phyto nutrients
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: from flour in terms of removing the germ, and then
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: we'll put seven or eight fractionated vitamins or minerals back
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: into the flour and call it fortified. It doesn't sound
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: like you're fortifying it. It sounds like you're taking ten
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: thousand of my dollars and giving me back fifteen cents.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: I don't feel fortified. So this is kind of the trouble.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: So how do we begin to amp up our body's ability? Well,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: we go after more natural foods. We go after those
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: things like liver and egg yolks and blackstrap molasses and
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: vegetables grown locally. We go after grass fed beef and
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: grass fed butter and whole dairy that's not processed and
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: pasteurized and totally toasted beyond recognition. We begin to let
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: our diet reflect something that is alive, so that we
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: can actually have a body that has something to subsist upon.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: And all of a sudden, we watch all these conditions
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: that we once had go away, including things like fatigue,
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: which it seems co q ten is quite excellent at doing. Now,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: the vast majority, just to go into a brief detail,
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: is diastolic high blood pressure when the filling portion of
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: the heart cannot happen, and so we have decreased output
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: of the heart. It's overworked, it's fatigued, it doesn't do well.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: And finally we have things like coronary artery disease and
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: heart attacks. And co Q ten seems to help this
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: filling by quite a little bit. And so most blood
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: pressures will be affected somewhat by co Q ten. Now
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: here's the stats for ninety percent of the blood pressures
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: out there that are diastolically related. We'll find a quarter
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: of those, so twenty five percent of those will actually
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: get off of their medication if they start co Q ten.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: The other seventy five percent will lower their amount of
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: medication by quite a significant amount. And that is literature.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: So if you want more about those kinds of things,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: you might hop in and look up some research articles
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: and just simply type typing in diastolic dysfunction of the
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: milcardium and its response to co q ten and you'll
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: probably get clinical investigations nineteen ninety three, and you'll be
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: able to look up that article that talks about co
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: q ten and this amazing ability to help an even
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: lower blood pressure. So if you just go out there
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: and start typing in co q ten in heart co
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: q ten and diabetes, co q ten and blood pressure.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: If you do these things, you're going to find article
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: after article after article. Most will be favorable, some will
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: be detractors. It's always helpful to know where their bread
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: is buttered, who's doing the research, because they are looking
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: for a specific outcome, and they can actually skew their
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: research to make it look as though things aren't as
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: good as you think. And you may watch that that
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: specific company that OH invested in that particular research, all
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: of a sudden has a brand new heart drug come
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: out that's just spectacular. That will be just fine for you.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: You so be cautious when it comes to research. You
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: might want to know whose pockets are being empty to
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: do that particular research, because they probably have an ulterior motive.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: But overall, the vast majority of research tends to point
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: to coq ten being quite a oh, a workhorse. When
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: it comes to energy, heart function, muscle function repair. Even
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: if you've been on a statin and your whole body
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: hurts and your sore, they have watched even that be
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: helped by coq ten, And when people get off their
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: statin and take coq ten, it's even more magnified. The
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: statistics are quite impressive, things that like muscle soreness. I
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: think if I read, if I remember reading right, like
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: eighty four percent down to sixteen percent report that they
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: had almost none arthritis symptoms went down like fifty percent
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: or something crazy. And so once we get off some
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: of these drugs that tend to be against a lot
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: of things in our body, like something that is so
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: necessary to our body, like cholesterol, we will find that
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: we feel much better. And so if you're wondering what
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: that little blurb was about cholesterol, do go find my
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: our podcast on cholesterol, and you'll understand the importance of
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: cholesterol and attacking that molecule is a bad idea anytime,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: it's almost never a good idea. And so repairing the
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: damage from some medications, well, it seems like we can
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: do quite an excellent job in co q ten's eyes.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: So I hope that was helpful. Until next time, I'm
• 12:29

• 12:32
