“…Read…packaged food labels like they’re the hottest thing from Oprah’s book club.”
― Dr. Joseph Mercola

“Ironically, the very advances that represent all that is modern in the world—hand sanitizers, treated water, factory farming—have created their own set of diseases. For example, triclosan—an antibacterial chemical used in many soaps and hand sanitizers—has been shown to kill human cells,26 and even the FDA admits it acts as an endocrine disruptor in animals.27 When combined with chlorinated water, it produces chloroform28—a probable carcinogen according to the EPA.29”

“Glyphosate also interferes with ATP production by affecting your mitochondrial membranes. When coupled with the so-called inert solvents included in Roundup, the toxicity of glyphosate is magnified as much as 2,000-fold. This makes the membrane more permeable, allowing the glyphosate to go straight to the heart of the mitochondria.”

“Your waist size is such an important predictor of health because the type of fat that is stored around your waistline—called “visceral fat” or “belly fat”—is related to the release of proteins and hormones that cause inflammation, which can in turn damage your arteries and affect how you metabolize sugars and fats. For this reason, visceral fat is strongly linked to type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s, and other chronic diseases. Seeing your waist size come down is a great indicator of improving health.”

“Epigenetic research reveals that our lifestyle choices—the foods we eat, the supplements we take, the exercise we pursue, and even the emotional content of our daily experiences—are all involved in orchestrating chemical reactions that activate or deactivate parts of our genome that will either code for outcomes that threaten health and pave the way for disease or create an internal environment conducive to longevity and disease resistance.”

“In other words, carbs can be seen as a far dirtier fuel than fats. When you adopt a high-fat, low-carb diet and make the switch to burning fat and ketones for fuel instead of glucose, your mitochondria’s exposure to oxidative damage drops by as much as 30 to 40 percent compared to when your primary source of fuel is sugar, as is typical in American diets today. This means that when you are “fat adapted”—that is, when you have made the transition to burning fat for fuel—your mitochondrial DNA, cell membranes, and protein can remain stronger, healthier, and more resilient. In order”

“Which is precisely how MMT works. It uses food intake to modulate the levels of your hormones—including leptin and insulin—that influence your weight, thereby directing your body to burn fat, not store it. It also removes the sources of sugars from your diet, which helps free you from that vicious cycle. As a result, your body will release its hold on your excess weight. And it does this without the stereotypical hunger pangs and cravings that accompany most weight-loss diets.”

“Instead of citing scientific studies to justify mandates for masks, lockdowns, and vaccines, our medical rulers cite WHO, CDC, FDA, and NIH—captive agencies that are groveling sock puppets to the industries they regulate. Multiple federal and international investigations have documented the financial entanglements with pharmaceutical companies that have made these regulators cesspools of corruption.”

“Until the last hundred years or so, we have not had 24/7 access to food. (Of course, in some parts of the world, this is still the case). But modern technology has now made it possible for so many of us to eat food around the clock. The problem is that even the highest-quality, most nutrient-dense food will inhibit your ability to achieve optimal health if you eat without a break. You simply must regularly refrain from continuous eating if you are going to activate your body’s innate repair and regeneration mechanisms.”

“Another magnificent healing mechanism that fasting triggers is the process of autophagy. Auto in Greek means “self,” and phagy means “to eat,” so autophagy refers to your body digesting its own damaged cells. It is a vital cleanout process—the equivalent of taking out the trash—that detoxifies your cells and recycles the parts of the organelles within them that are no longer needed, so that your cells behave more youthfully. Autophagy also destroys foreign invaders such as viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. A similar process, apoptosis, is when the entire cell is recycled. When apoptosis is impaired, your risk for cancer increases dramatically because your ability to remove damaged cells is impaired. That is why fasting is so useful as an adjunctive strategy to not only prevent cancer, but also help treat it.”

“It should be obvious to anyone paying attention that the pandemic is being prolonged and exaggerated for a reason, and it’s not because there’s concern for life. Quite the contrary. It’s a ploy to quite literally enslave the global population within a digital surveillance system—a system so unnatural and inhumane that no rational population would ever”

“Sugar fans the flames of inflammation in your body, as it is a dirty fuel that was never intended to be our primary fuel. Using sugar for energy produces 30 to 40 percent more ROS than burning fat. Omega-6 oils, particularly those that are heavily refined and easily oxidized, tend to be highly inflammatory. In MMT, you will limit your consumption of these bad fats and get most of what you need from oil-rich foods containing healthier oils. Increasing your consumption of omega-3 fats will improve the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fats, which you will learn is important to cellular health. Saturated fats, on the other hand, are not oxidized as easily as oils because they don’t have double bonds that can be damaged through oxidation. MMT prioritizes getting your fats from healthful sources of saturated and monounsaturated fats and significantly reduces your omega-6 oil consumption. It’s no surprise, then, that research shows that low-carb diets tend to reduce levels of systemic inflammation.”

“Beyond its effects on health and the health care industry, COVID-19 has empowered the global elite more than ever before to manufacture lies and half-truths. Uber-powerful Silicon Valley Big Tech corporations (Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon), Big Pharma, the World Health Organization (WHO), and philanthropic giant Bill Gates have indentured politicians and scientists from across the political spectrum. The result is fearmongering, political polarization, and social engineering—all wrapped in a disguise of protection. A shadowy network of military contractors and bioweapons specialists are hiding behind the façade of biomedical and vaccine research while Big Tech silences their critics.”

“Far-IR frequencies do not appear to have any PBM impacts on your mitochondria. In addition to activating your mitochondria, near IR and red light that is also present in heat lamp bulbs helps to structure the water in your body and provide it with energy that can be used in a variety of different ways. So now you understand that sunlight exposure is doing more than heating your body or promoting vitamin D production. It actually activates an entire healing system. Since you have mitochondria in every cell of your body, with the exception of red blood cells, it’s a core restorative healing system.”

“PROCESS FOR ADAPTING TO KETOFASTING Step one: Stop eating three hours before bedtime. Step two: Begin shortening your eating window—typically this is most easily done by continuing to not eat for three hours before bedtime and then delaying breakfast. Step three: As you gradually reduce your eating window to between six and eight hours a day, begin following a ketogenic diet. Step four: After you are regularly producing ketones, add in one “feast” day a week when you eat more net carbs and protein in what’s known as a cyclical ketogenic diet.”

“In the early part of the 21st century, something extraordinary is occurring: After decades of collective awe of modern medicine and its purveyors, a strong undercurrent of disillusionment has begun to appear. With it came the beginnings of a philosophical revolution that is leading health science in a promising new direction. This new direction centers on the realization that health and healing are best supported when the biological roots of our nature are better understood and respected. This philosophical approach is based on the awareness that health and healing are natural processes, and that the body seeks to be healthy by default as long as we provide it with what it requires.”

“CHAPTER 6 HOW DO YOU REPAIR EMF-RELATED DAMAGE? I know it may not feel like it at this point in the book, but there is good news here: Now that we have established how EMF exposure can damage your DNA through the peroxynitrite-induced creation of free radicals, we have a framework to remediate the damage. And there is even better news: Although there is no way your ancestral biology could have predicted the enormous exposure you would have to MHz and GHz radiation from the wireless industry, you do indeed have a built-in repair system that can at least partially remediate the damage. It is called the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family of enzymes. (I know that is a mouthful, but this is a really important group of enzymes.) PARP1 is the most common in the family of 17 PARP enzymes and is best known for its ability to repair DNA damage., Note that in 2019 the PARP1 name was changed to ADP-ribosyltransferase diphtheria toxin-like 1 (ARTD1).1 PARP enzymes function as DNA damage sensors and signaling molecules. These enzymes bind to both single- and double-stranded DNA breaks.2”

“Se despejan las células dañadas. Ayunar dispara la autofagia, una rutina de limpieza natural que tu cuerpo utiliza para limpiar los desechos celulares, incluyendo toxinas, mientras que también recicla los componentes de las células dañadas. La autofagia, que se traduce como “comerse a sí mismo”, como leíste en el capítulo 2, contribuye a muchas funciones importantes al ayudar a que tus células madre conserven la habilidad de mantener y reparar tus tejidos,3 apagando la inflamación, desacelerando el proceso de envejecimiento y el crecimiento del cáncer, y optimizando la función biológica. Disminuye el hambre.”

“While the U.S. ranks number one by a huge margin in healthcare expenditures, it ranks 70th in quality of health. Clearly, our current methods aren’t working! Obviously, the traditional healthcare system fails to effectively address chronic disease. As more and more people develop chronic disease—even multiple chronic diseases—doctors are increasingly unable to provide solutions that actually work.”
