you've been lied to by medicine I was recently invited to speak at the low carb conference okay there was a bunch of doctors in the room and what was amazing was that all the doctors in the room practiced a completely different type of medicine they practice the philosophy that food is the best medicine using drugs were not their mode of treatment and I really think that's going to be the way of the future but unfortunately the great majority of doctors use drugs to heal people and today we're going to dissect and talk about quite a
few lies that you probably have been told by your doctor and the problem is not even doctors it's the system behind doctors if you were just to ask someone in the medical profession what creates Health what would they say does a drug actually create health or does it numb or alter a symptom and unfortunately our current health care system is highly influenced by big Pharma and big food aka the junk food industry another problem with the medical profession is it's over specialized we have a bunch of Specialists that are not necessarily connecting the dots and
looking at the whole body doctors just focusing on the ears nose and throat other doctors just focus on the digestive system or the endocrine system or the brain I think that's a problem because it kind of keeps everything separated and very unfortunately the training in nutrition and food therapy is virtually absent in medical school they get I think 12 to 20 hours well here's one of their biochemistry textbooks this one right here and what's missing in this book book are the key co-actors AKA nutrients that are involved in Biochemistry nutrition is not emphasized in Biochemistry
doctors do not look into this diet this food angle yet many doctors have opinions on nutrition which is not very favorable so let's dive into the nine lies that your doctor told you number one you don't need a gallbladder so if you're missing it is not a big deal well first of all the gallbladder is a sack that is underneath your right rib cage it's a storage place for something called bio salts and bio salts are a detergent that helps you extract certain fats from your digestive system so without a gallbladder you're not going to
be able to concentrate this bile so if you don't have a gallbladder bile salts after a meal would be a good idea number two statins have minimal side effects that is completely not true they have major side effects not just a little problem with muscles but a major problem with muscles your risk for typee 2 diabetes goes up and you're at risk for liver damage some doctors even recommend statins for everyone over the age of 40 and 50 whether you have a problem with cholesterol or not that is insane because without cholesterol a lot of
problems can occur cholesterol is a necessary thing that your body makes and needs for several things number one it's needed to make a lot of different hormones including testosterone estrogen progesterone the stress hormone called cortisol it's needed to make the cell membranes and you have a lot of cell membranes in fact the surface area of membrane that surrounds your cells is roughly and I'm not kidding the size of 90 Acres so instead of trying to block the production of cholesterol let's actually get rid of certain things that are causing high levels of cholesterol another lie
that people are told is that hypertension is really too much salt in the diet is it really the salt some people that take salt before bed sleep better because it lowers cortisol we don't want to start lowering salt below the threshold instead we want to take the opposing mineral which is potassium and increase that that allows a person to tolerate more sodium salt sensitive people are no longer salt sensitive when they have more potassium potassium is great for blood pressure because it helps soften the arteries it helps calm this tightness down all right the next
one the doctor says your vitamin D is low we're going to give you 6 to 800 IUS right which is a ridiculous number it's so small it's not going to even create a dent into your levels so then you go back to the doctor because you probably found one of my videos that said you should take a minimum of 10,000 iuse every day as a maintenance dosage and they tell you oh my gosh that's toxic that's a lie if you're out for 40 minutes in summer you'll get 20,000 IUS of vitamin D3 have you ever
heard being out the Sun for 20 minutes will give you some toxicity with vitamin D no you don't because Vitamin D from the Sun is the most natural way to get all the benefits what you have to know is the international units are not a measurement of weight or size they're based on a group of people deciding that's what it should be a 10,000 I use of vitamin D3 is not that much if I'm not mistaken it's less than a quarter of one milligram of vitamin D3 now this next one is actually kind of comical
you've probably been told by your doctor that you need to give up red meat because red meat causes colon cancer causes heart disease right really is that actually true the answer is no in fact out of all of the foods that you can eat that can help heal you grass-fed red meat is at the top of the list why because it provides the most quality protein that your body needs number one it has virtually all of the B vitamins zinc selenium copper iron all in the form that's easily absorbed it also has another thing called
creatine which gives you energy and it helps your muscles it has ELC carnitine which helps deliver fats into the mitochondria for energy it helps you burn fat it even has something called co-enzyme Q10 and it's one of the best sources of glutamine for any type of gut inflammation but of course the conventional healthcare industry says that red meat is bad and you should avoid it they kind of lump it in with processed meat meat saying it's all the same next one is that you have to avoid saturated fats well they blame the saturated fat when
in fact they should be blaming the unsaturated fat the seed oils which make up 30% of our diet saturated fat by itself is not the culprate if you take a look at all the junk food out there there's not a lot of saturated fat in junk food I'm talking about the breads pasta cereal crackers biscuits waffles pancakes very inflammatory this next one is interesting they're mostly going to tell you to lose weight because the weight's the cause no weight is a symptom your high cholesterol is a symptom you see if you actually put weight as
the cause of your problem then you're going to be susceptible to taking certain measures that might not be healthy to lose weight like OIC or some other medication my question is what is really at the root of your weight problem it's kind of circular because they'll say that your weight problem causes your high blood pressure and they might put you in this boat where you have metabolic syndrome so you have all these different syndromes they're all associated with each other but no one's really talking about the root cause the root cause is really something called
insulin resistance where the body is pumping out a lot of insulin and that insulin is making you fat it's making the arteries constrict causing blood pressure to go up and that's caused by eating too many refined carbs and sugars and Seed oils so My Philosophy is always it's not lose weight to get healthy it's get healthy first to lose the weight so focus on the health the next one relates to maybe a recommendation you might get from a dietitian and this would be you need to be more plant-based right because plant-base is cleaner if you
take a look at some of the ingredients on these plant-based artificial fake Meats it's all alra processed food ingredients we're talking about soy protein isolates we're talking about hidden maltodextrin it's not really healthy grass-fed organic free range pasture raised eggs much healthier and this next one is really fascinating because they'll say that hypoglycemia is a complication of diabetes and so we have to manage it because it's one of the dangers of having diabetes is to have hypoglycemia well what is Hypoglycemia low blood sugar what is diabetes high blood sugar so if diabetes is high blood
sugar shouldn't we lower the glucose and sugar and carbohydrates wouldn't that be the best thing to do well guess what doctors don't really tell you to do that instead they tell you to keep some glucose pills in your pocket or candy in case you're blood sugars go too low because the medication you're taking is lowering your blood glucose we don't want it to go too low that's completely illogical why doesn't the doctor just tell you to lower the medication and take less candy because it's the carbohydrates that Spike the insulin that drops the blood glucose
so anyone who has hypoglycemia or low blood sugar really has too much insulin and thus the problem with the medical industry there hasn't been any Deep dive and evaluation into you know nutrients and what they do and how they can benefit someone but what I will say is I have done a deep dive on many different aspects of nutrition if you want more information on that you should check out this video right here
