Well, good morning. Welcome to Living a Primal Lifestyle. Well, we explore a return to a more balanced, natural, wild world. I'm Paige Clark, by the way. Yeah, and we do this to recover our natural health, regain our rights and freedoms, and I'm Niko Dahan. And it is a rainy day and Monday type day. We have had a lot of rain, 76 degrees in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida. Yeah, it was a wet coming down here. We needed it. It's greening everything up, though. It keeps the temperature low, and hence we're going to have like 85 to 87 all week. Nice. Because of the rain. Nice, nice. That's kind of good. And then we have a new newsletter. In this newsletter, you get it into your mailbox how often? The 15th and the first. The 15th and the first.

And of course, please pick up our primal edge, our one-shot wonder, our 310 organic liquid-cell-ready ingredients all there to make the healthy and get the good stuff in. And the bad stuff out. And if you're up early, you want to give us a call. It's 877-927-6648. Good morning, Paige. Good morning. Well, this is our last show for the walk, because we're both going on vacation. Yes, we are. It's a beautiful thing. And I wanted to start off the program talking about food processing because that's always in the news. And there's been a lot of studies out. But I thought, first, what we do is just kind of go over what food processing is and what it means so we can define it so we know what we're talking about. And this comes from John Hopkins. Oh, there you go. Good source. Yeah, it's a good source. And food processing has come to be associated with, of course, ramen noodles, canned meat. Like spam. Yeah, kind of like those, what are those? Twinkies. Yeah, all kinds of stuff. Little devies, sponge cakes. Yeah. And businesses use food processing techniques to transform raw foods and ingredients to new products. These techniques are in the gamut and include milling grains into flour, probably one of the most processed ways of doing things, crushing seeds to get the oil, turning the milk into butter, mixing ingredients to make batter and baking cookies on the assembly line. Yeah, but some of these food processing techniques, although many of them might use cutting-edge technology, others have been practiced for millennia, literally, thousands of years, even before food scientists figured stuff out, how to make those little dinosaur crackers. It's been that long. Chicken McMollies. We know that fermenting and leavening bread, the Egyptians were leavening bread and brewing beer and all that kind of stuff. But for better or worse, Nico, all of our food is processed in some way, sadly. Yeah, and even meat processing can involve things like just cutting and deboning, which doesn't seem too bad, but also removing guts from the carcasses, which probably is healthy in a sense. So we have to think about this. Kind of the balance between a longer shelf life and actually some processing such as fermentation, which is a thing that we do to make the food more digestible. You and I were talking about that. Right? But some of it raises concerns over dietary health and safety in general. Yeah, especially because of that study that was out just a while ago that talked about ultra-processed foods that are much more dangerous for you. So preparation and food safety, over time, yeast, molds, bacteria and other forces cause food to spoil, making it less nutritious, of course, but it tastes bad and potentially unsafe. So many of the oldest food processing techniques, such as drying fruit, pickling vegetables, salting meat and fermenting dairy to make cheese and yogurt, remain important to this day because they preserve food and they delay the spoilage. Hey, listen to this. This is a little sniglet. Okay. In the 1790s, Napoleon Bonaparte offered a prize to the scientist who could best develop ways to preserve food for his armies in France. And Nicolas Appere, a chef from Paris, won the prize in 1810 for his discovery of sterile canning, a processing technique that is sometimes called appetization, and canning involves either glass jars, like the pretty colorful ones there, or metal cans. Interesting, when you go in a lot of grocery stores, like in Europe, you don't see so many canned metal cans. Mostly you see the jars, which I really like. Because you can see the stuff. Yeah. That's why they do that. I like it, too. Yeah, preservation allows people to ship foods over greater distances. They can store things longer, so you can enjoy them later. Processing can also inhibit or destroy pathogens, like disease-causing organisms. Yeah. They can also contaminate food. And you see that. You know, we've had a lot of food recalls and things that are going on. Right. So preservation techniques such as refrigeration, fermentation, dehydration, and the use of salt, sugar, or other chemical preservers can slow or stop the growth of these pathogens. Heat process such as pasteurization and cooking them can also help destroy them. Yeah, that's for sure. So although the businesses use food processing techniques to reduce these food safety risks, the facilities where food processes are being done sometimes are part of the problem, too. And large processing plants, for example, can handle large volumes of products from different sources. I think that's a problem. If you get a shipment of spinach, one farm, and that's contaminated with something, and then you're using the same equipment to do another type of vegetable or even process it. Cross-contamination against that. Yeah. Hey, here's a cool picture over here. I don't know. I don't want to click on it. Yeah, that is, you know, we're talking about some fermentation. Some processing is good for us. Some, not so much. But that was a picture of, it looked like stringy beans over there that I was showing you. And keep one more. There you go. Nato. That's natto. And that's the fermented soybean. You know, last show, we spent quite a bit of time talking about one of the most precious nutrients we can get is vitamin K2. K2 really protects our arteries and keeps us healthy. And usually only found in animal products. Much of it is. Yeah. Natto is one, but it's known for its pungent odor. That's why so many people like to take it. What's the process of fermentation that makes the K2? There's a precursor in there. It's made in our guts, you know? Exactly. But in any case, you know, I think that it's interesting to see that did we take processing maybe too far? Well, contrary to popular belief, the effects of food processing on nutrition are so varied that it cannot be generalized as unhealthy or even healthy. There's certain things that we did to food in the olden days to make it much healthier because somewhere along the line, we learned to do these things. Some of them were accidental. It was part of survival. Well, like that story from the samurai that left his rice out too long and he had the natto and discovered this was a healing thing and when he went into battle, he felt great. Yeah. All the other guys were going, You're eating that stinky stuff. Yeah. So, I mean, a lot of these things are accidental that we found, but essential to maybe our survival in the long run. And here's another thing to consider too. You know, here as we go down, I'm just putting up some pictures here. Here's a woman with a goiter and a lot of what we see as a result of processing. Maybe we remove some of the good stuff and put some of the bad stuff, you know, don't get the bad stuff out. Some foods have been processed. You know, when we started to realize that goiters were an iodine deficiency and that's when we started having iron fortified, I mean, iodine fortified salt and so forth and they added iodine to table salt to prevent the goiter. So, sometimes we're able to address health things by adding things that aren't there. That's right. Interesting. We'll talk a little bit more about processed food and we'll be right back after this short break. And pick up our health signals laser and please pick up our primal edge during the break.

We're talking about nutrition and basically about the process of food. And some processes deplete the nutrition, and some of them add it in. Sort of fortifying it when we fortify things. We add these vitamins in it. Can we just hold on for a second because we've got a question. Oh, okay. Zee wants to ask us, hey, we don't care when you tune in just as long as you tune in, no problem. I would ask you both to restate your brief conclusions on the benefits, hazards of plant-based and lab-grown meat protein substitutes hitting the market and being intensely promoted since I value your experience and knowledge. I would be very interested in your thoughts. Yeah, John, you know, that's a... Well, you know, we were... It's kind of what we're talking about in a sense. Right. Because really, you know, if you go back in history and look at what we ate as hunter and gatherers and people who are still hunter and gatherers mostly still eat this way. They're mostly talking about animals, insects, snakes and things like that. And eating vegetables as an afterthought. If we need them, we can use them. These days, the big agenda is for pushing for things that are not meat. I call it franken food. Yeah, you made a comment when we were on the break. Nico was sharing a documentary or a podcast that's going on. Yeah, this podcast came from down under. It's about three years ago, but very heavily on YouTube right now the healthiest diet in the world. And of course, what do they say the healthiest diet in the world is? It's all plant-based food. And there's arguments between them because it's very interesting. I was telling you during the break, one guy is arguing, well, you have to ferment these beans if you're going to use these beans because you can't use them in the other. And the other guy is saying, well, beans are very important. Let's skip that. It's so important that we eat beans. So they're all confused. And in our opinion and in our knowledge and our experience, what we know is that our ancestors passed down the wisdom that if you're going to eat a bean, you better soak it and you better soak it two and three and four times and change the water and then cook them to death. In order to protect your gut, we were not designed to eat these foods. We do not have three stomachs like a cow. This is why, over time, I actually think that perhaps then we've got the issue of juicing, you know, takes out the fiber so that the damage and a lot of the things that can happen for the plant-based side. Well, then you've got your sugars. Then you've got your sugars, you know, irritating the arteries. Remember, we talked about how important K2 is to protect our arterial health. So I'm getting back to what you're saying. These protein-meat substitutes, Nico and I have shared a thought idea. What was soy-based, most of them? Well, they're soy-based and you've heard us say soy is not a toy for the girl or the boy. This is the reason we see young girls that are having periods at nine and little boys that are kind of puffy, you know, a lot of these little vegan vegetarians. I see a lot of my friends on Facebook that are raising their kids and grandkids on, you know, healthy plant-based foods and you can see a difference in the way their kids look. I truly believe as a result of probably not getting the necessary animal nutrition. If you're on a plant-based diet for 10 years or more, you're going to have serious problems. I'm not saying that I love my plant foods, actually. I do, but it's almost like as a little condiment to my main protein source. And that's mainly how it was always used until the food companies started getting involved and pushing this on us and changing the way we did through the advertising, through the memes of breakfast. I've never had breakfast and I always tell the story of, you know, my first breakfast. They left when the sun rose to go get the work done before it got too hot. That's right. And then they came back. To answer your question, John, I really think that some of this push is, you know, you go back and hear the story about the kings, the certain foods were only allowed for the kings, or even when they said... They only killed the king's deer. Yeah, right. You can't do that. Only the king can. Only the king can kill the deer because, you know, there was a scarcity of deer at that time. Now some people might say, well, there's an access because, of course, nobody hunts anymore. Well, it's pretty well known that during the 1700s and we were just coming out of the Dark Ages and now we have this big revolution where we're starting to build machines and we all of a sudden stubble along a whole new continent, two new continents. So now we've taken the world and given half of it again to all the humans saying, you know, we're not running out because Europe was running out of stuff. Not so much Asia because Europe was running out because too many people there. We overfished. That's why the things come up like you can't kill the deer for the king. So now we discover a new world and we go and ravage that. But I think what's really cool is like how you taught me when I first met you. A lot of people go, oh, well, Asians eat rice and so that was a starvation food. They wanted the royalty wanted the other foods so they could feed the masses on the rice and so forth. The food was scarce. So whenever I see them pushing things like this, I think it's to get the masses to accept these, I call them, subpar foods, franken foods. Well, first of all, much, much less expensive to keep food that you can process. Plant food, if it's fresh, goes bad fast, meat even faster. So fresh food, this is why you're coming up with substitutes because the fresh is hard on us, folks. Well, the other thing is that it's not enough profit. We were talking during the break. They had this thing in the paper of the CEOs in Florida and the ones they were talking about, four or five of them were making between $15 and $22 million a year and their employees were making $20,000 a year. That's the discrepancy I talk about in today's society. It's not equal anymore and when we start out on the land, we start out equal. It may not always be equal but we start out that way. Yeah, you and I have different opinions. I definitely don't want to be so equal that we think that socialism always leads to communism, in my opinion. And I'm not talking certainly about socialism. I just think you're exactly right. We have become convenience people and we are willing to accept this food and I'm going to say to you, John. Because we're brainwashed. Yeah, don't buy these frankenbrews. If it's highly processed, if it's a vegetarian protein, a little bit of it. I mean, I don't mind getting peas approaching when I have a peas, when I have them. But I like anything I have now fermented. I've noticed my stomach feels better. And I am highly suspect when they start promoting these other kinds of foods and these things that they know what's coming. And as David Dubine, we've always had Adapt 2030, he's been educating us on coming food shortages due to the grand solar minimum. If we have crop loss, all of you guys that are traders that are watching the show and tipping it in. You're just starting to see it now. We're seeing that due to bad weather and rains and cold and crop losses. And so now is the time to go buy that big bag of rice and store it in case you need it five years from now. So these things are valuable for me. And go buy your canned butter. Did you know they have canned butter? Yeah, canned butter. I've got so many cans. I've got a closet that's filled with cans. It's a beautiful thing. I mean, that's what you want it for. But now you want to go out and go get your own food. And maybe that's exactly what we all need to do. I mean, in the reality. Remember, our show is based on local and seasonal. So if you buy local and buy seasonal and buy fresh food, you're going to be okay no matter what you do. If you eat more vegetables than I do, no problem. If you eat more meat than I do, good luck. It really doesn't make any difference as long as it's fresh and it's grown right to where you are. Bingo. That is our real premise here. And I've kind of gotten bored to tears on whether or not if you think a vegan diet is the best diet on the planet or you think of what your carnivory is. There are benefits. As long as you do them, there can be times where one might be the other. But I just don't want to argue that. What you need to have is, I think, a well-rounded diet with the foods that are fresh. Yeah. So in this thing, we're going to go over a little bit more of the processed foods. Yeah, we were saying sometimes processing adds good stuff to the food. Sometimes processing takes it out. For example, some processing techniques will actually add nutrients like B, iron, fiber, iodine. We talked about that. And in a case, a lot of cases we have to because the food doesn't have it. So second round, we'll have a lot more. We'll be right back. But the personal training studio that Niko is the owner and president of, Performance Training.

So when nutritionists recommend avoiding processed food, they often refer to highly processed foods that are high in added sugars and healthy fats and have little or no nutritional value and no longer resemble the plant or the animal that they were made from. Now you, during the break, you were telling me a little process that you make. This is a homemade processed food that would be very healthy. Well, yeah, for example, I think what it illustrates is me trying to think more like a primal woman, but yet with some of my little things that I like. So for example, I buy a chicken sometimes. In a hurry, I didn't roast my own chicken. I could roast my own chicken, but say I bought an organic roasted chicken and I want to have a chicken meal. So I also have some raw dairy. And maybe my raw cream is getting a little past the way I like it in my coffee. But remember, raw just ferments. It doesn't actually go bad. So I'll make like a chicken marsala mushroom with it. Pull the chicken off there and I'll make the chicken marsala. And then I take the bones and I make bone broth. Add a little apple cider vinegar to pull the minerals out. I cook that. And then after I strain the bone broth, this is kind of like a primal person would use all of it. I take, in the bones, I've cooked it for a day and a half. So the bones, I can literally smush the bones. So I add that, the bones, to my blender with a little bit of the bone broth. And I make like the... It's a little slurry type of broth. It's like a slurry and I pour it in ice cube trays. So basically the next time I have broth or I'm cooking a sauce or something, I'll add one of those and then I'm getting bone marrow and all that delicious, healthy collagen and so forth. And then I take my bone broth, I put it in my big thermos and add a little pat of butter and some pink salt and it's delicious. And then you and I talked about eating the organ, eating the whole animal and that's the way we were raised to do. And if you don't have organ meat, because most people don't see it, you have to really ask for it at the grocery store. We're going to talk about a company that offers organ meats in a capsule that are processed but freeze dried to preserve the nutrients. And my recommendation is to take maybe 10 of them capsules once a week, maybe twice. And that would be more like you would have, you wouldn't be eating organ meats every day. If you were primal and you had a hunt, you might have an animal and then after that was gone, you lived on the bones and the marrow. So you shared with the whole tribe. Sure. So you made up a soup to make it last. Exactly. I like that. These are things that are very easy to do. And I love the idea of the ice cube thing. Then you can plop it in whenever you need it. And the next time you make a soup, it's a more nutritious soup, right? Yeah. I just want to share that. So now we're talking about, on this about animal slaughter, meat processing and the workers' health. And that's the key point. A lot of people don't realize, we've seen some of those awful documentaries that show the horrible conditions of that type of processing plan. And you know, what's the state of the meat that people are buying? That's why we're very picky about where we do buy it. And there's a huge difference between going into a factory, even a small factory, and watching them do that, which if you can get in to do that, a lot of companies will restrict that. Or going to a place where this one guy is a family farm and they're processing the meat outside and they're glad to have you watch them. Because it's an education and then you see it's not bloody like you think it is. It's very humane. Remember animals are usually in the wild, eaten while they're living. So this is a much more humane. They're killed very humanely, very quickly. It doesn't cause any pain or distress to the animal. In fact, that's what we don't want. We don't want stress. We don't want, when you're hunting, you don't want the animal to see you and you don't want to be chasing it. You want an animal that's at peace with itself. But I think what I get from this, Nico, is that we've gotten so far away from being involved in our food. And I think there's a lot of spiritual benefit to being more concerned and involved in where your food's coming from and comparing your food. But this is a society problem because not only are we not too concerned and not involved with finding and processing our own food, but we're not even doing that to our own children. You know, we have a fake birth. We send them off to strangers as soon as we can. And then they're educated by strangers. Maybe not the same values as you. This is something that our primal people would never do. We never would give away our children. Our children need to be beside us so we can show them what life is about. Yeah, it takes a village. Right, it takes a village. Remember that saying? So it's the whole process of thinking how we do things today is completely disconnected with how we evolve. And that's the premise for the whole show. Showing you how we can now add things in to be more primal, to be healthier, to have a clearer mind, and not to be a slave to our modern society. No matter if you're a communist or socialist or capitalist, it doesn't make any difference. All these isms are the same thing. Just the sky's a little bit different. And believe me, I love living in the United States. I would not live in any place else. Hey, you're exactly right. I want to thank you, John. Thank you for the nice feedback on our show and for sharing our information. The idea is this is news you can use to stay healthy. So thank you for that. And I mentioned the ancestral supplements. Remember, I mentioned that perhaps we don't get the organ-based nutrition that we were supposed to. I thought real quick, maybe we can kind of talk a little bit about this way of... This is a type of processing that actually... Yeah, we can interject, but I think this is a good example. Here's a company called Ancestral Supplements. And they produce one small batch at a time to ensure higher quality and attention to detail. This includes third-party testing of their products. And they're a small Texas-based company doing business the old-fashioned way. No shortcuts, higher quality. Just what Nico was saying, higher standards where the customer comes first. And they basically have one purpose. I'll have what he's having. Exactly, that's what I thought you'd say. He looks good. So basically, his mission is... I'm all distracted now. He's putting back in what the modern world has left out. And that is to return people back to strength, health and happiness. And ideally, we would consume the whole animal, nose to tail, to optimally support and sustain a vibrant disease-free life. And for most, that's just not practical today in modern times. That's where all this has come in. So their supplements are for individuals seeking fundamentally liver, bone marrow and organs and targeted support in harmony with nature, the old-fashioned way, the way our early ancestors did. Yeah, his name is Brian Johnson. He's also known as the liver king. And he believes that the evolutionary theory of health and wellness, he believes in that theory. He believes that for millions of years, robust strength and exceptional health was the center to our existence. We once were strong, lean, healthy and fit. I believe this because most of our human history, we effortlessly consume, nose to tail, all the things we needed for health and happiness. Like the fertile ground that we once walked upon, we are a natural extension of this earth. And then here's the key point, and I know you guys have heard me say this over and over. Those of you all who have listened like John for years, know he has found out most people are critically deficient in the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, as well as magnesium, iron, choline, B12 and iodine. And because of this, they decided to start a supplement line that makes the biggest impact, that gets some of these key nutritional components in with the highest quality, grass-fed beef liver and bone marrow. We'll put a link. I actually enjoy these products and have them delivered. And as I said, the way I do it is, you know, I'm over that taking this and that, you know, and you've got all these pills. You take them almost like a meal. Or you can open them up and sprinkle them in your food. Yeah, so that's another way to do it. We have to get out of the break. We'll be right back. But today, our food sources no longer contain the vitamins, minerals and nutrients our bodies need to stay healthy and strong. That's why we need primal-edge daily nutrition. It includes a special blend of ionic, soil-based vitamins, minerals, fatty and amino acids, and an easy-to-use liquid form.

It's amazing to think that Tom O'Brien started his weekly gold report 17 years ago with the first issue published April 7, 2002, when gold was trading at under $300 per ounce. Gold peaked at more than $1,900 in 2011, and after spending many years consolidating at lower prices, gold may be poised for its next big run.

This will, of course, be in the next newsletter coming up. And his mission is putting back in what the modern world has left out to return people back to strength, health, and happiness. Because, fortunately, our potential for strength and health remains encoded in our DNA. And under certain conditions, we can genetically express the strongest, healthiest version of ourselves. And those certain conditions almost always have to do with nutrition. It's the first thing that matters. And I was talking to Ellen last night. We were just kind of bantering before going to bed. And I was talking to her about having the food companies be responsible for our health. Wouldn't that be a novel idea? Yeah, they pay for all our health coverage and everything like that. And now the alphabet soup organization in our government is responsible for policing these food companies and so forth. Well, you know, they take money to pass things that aren't healthy. Well, not only that, we have to revolve the revolving door of going from CEO to the government, back to the CEO, back to the government. And so they're not really, it's like having the fox guard the hen house. That's right. So if you are like the Johnson tribe or family, then you eat nose to tail diet. You consume fermented foods like fish sauce just about every day, and you definitely get mid-day sun exposure. Hey, fish sauce, for example, when I went to Thailand, that is a staple in their diet. So people go, oh, the people in Thailand, they eat a lot of rice and noodles and foods that came from animals. And that's what makes the big difference there. So this is really cool, folks. And this is all available through Amazon Prime. So it's very easy to get. Look at this. Grass-fed beef heart, beef thyroid, pancreas, spleen. This is where food is thy medicine, folks. Bone marrow, thymus. And these are easily to take. You can sprinkle them on your food. You can take them as the capsule itself. But this is all the pure product. This is free-dried, very healthy. And this is what I think you should be doing. It's not our product, but I'll push this to the limit for sure. So we'll be in the next newsletter. Yeah, and I suggest that people really get going with it. A lot of benefits in this. When he's talking about the products and everything like that, he's talking about feeling vibrant. He's talking about sleeping like a rock. He's talking about waking up with a smile on his face. And let's put him back on there, and he's like, you know, activating the ancient pathways. See, he's got it right. This guy's all about living a primal lifestyle, eating the whole animal, being in tune with nature, activating the ancient pathway of sleep, nutrition, movement, and sun. Yeah, I'm just saying, he's a strong man. He's a man's man. And he's a woman's man, too, you know? But, you know, like what he says, he has to make his little disclaimer, I'm not a doctor and this is not medical advice, but having a degree of biochemistry knowledge, he wrote a thesis on the chemistry and biochemistry of supplemental nutrition. And as a, he's also a primal blueprint certified coach, you know, to Mark's thing. And he's been obsessed with ancestral health and living for over 20 years, and he cares about people, and I really like that. So one of his, you know, he doesn't just share his supplement, he's also sharing tips and tools, and tools, which you and I really hold dear, and that's getting in touch with nature. And one of the most important things we can do, and we talk about it a lot, is really getting our sleep hacked. And, you know, we need to sleep like a rock. And it's really sleep triumphs almost everything. And that's a big problem today for everybody, it seems like. Well, and then let's tie it back to, is it this highly processed food that they average, you know, the franken food? Well, that is not eating enough sun, so he asked the question. He says, how badly do you want this? How badly do you want to be strong, healthy, happy again? What are you willing to do? If you're like most people reading this right now, there's a little that you wouldn't do to retain or to reclaim these virtues. Well, that's that saying, you know, most people, you know, lose their health trying to gain their wealth, and then in the end, they end up spending all their wealth trying to recapture their health. And that's definitely not the way to go. Yeah, but, you know, do we want to share his, you know, if you read his tips of what he says, listen to this, I want to go over these because people like these tips. I like them. Hey, who does this sound like? Get morning sun exposure at the same time every day to regulate your sleep and wake cycles. In other words, establish a circadian rhythm. See what he says, this is how you regulate yourself by going with the sun. As I said, our eyes are not just cameras, they're clocks, so set your clock and everybody knows what to do. Finish your last meal at least three to four hours before bedtime. If we are eating before bed, then our body cannot rest. It has to digest. And that digestive system needs a rest, too. Yes, and my wife being home, working from home now, 99% of the time, allows us to eat at four o'clock instead of five or six, which is a huge thing digestive wise because I go to bed at nine o'clock. And when you go to bed at nine o'clock, there's hormone stimulation between ten and two. You're repairing and you're getting younger as you sleep. Yeah, I like that idea. The other idea is get grounded. Get out the outdoors, connect with the magnetic surface of the earth. You can do earthy, you can get grounding sheets so you're grounded. Or you can go on barefoot hikes on the, you know, on the ground and go to the beach where we live. And put your phone in airplane mode to make sure there's no electronics, no lights anywhere near you when you're sleeping. This one, do you see what it says? Your sleep temperature should be between 64 and 68. And boy, I like that. I cranked my air down and, you know, our air-conditioned guy, you know, it's working fine because I do it right before I'm going to bed. Yeah, ours clicks down to 72, but then we have a nice hand. Oh, that's hot for me. But really make it so cold that even, you know, in the summer you, you know, you feel this kind of... Your body's actually take that as a signal that it's cold and dark and it's time to heat up the repair engines. And use your blackout curtains and blackout blinds so that you have that dark. Again, it's part of that whole signaling. How about this? Use Himalayan salt lamps at sunset instead of regular lighting. That's what you do and we do. And I've gone in all of my rooms that I transit at night. I have a lamp and I bought the red incandescent light bulbs on Amazon. And I've replaced a lamp in each room that is just the red light. So I can... I don't have Himalayan salt lamps in the whole house, but it would work. But I think this actually provides a little better light and it's definitely a red tone. The other thing the author does, he recommends, of course, a ketosis type diet, ancestral type diet. And that is really a diet that calms everything down. Not only the body, but also the mind and everything else. So he really goes deep into that ketosis and a high fat diet is the thing to do. Right, and obviously having the whole animal and getting all the nutrient-dense foods, which are really animal foods, but he also recommends the blue blocker glasses at least two hours before you go to bed. That helps make sure that your eyes aren't being stimulated at the wrong time with blue light. And this is my other favorite one that he says. Shut your mouth. He's talking about his breathing through your nose and the mouth taping will change your world, folks. Go get the mouth tape. Whether you think you sleep with your mouth open or you don't think you do, you probably do. Most of us, when we relax, and our head goes back, our jaw relaxes, and that obstructs airway. When your airway is obstructed, you don't get the oxygen to the brain that you need to. And it's a game changer. You end up feeling very relaxed and you sleep much deeper. Last but not least, he says sleep on the floor. Like the tribes did. Use that magnetic connection. Maybe that's a good idea. I think that's probably a good idea for sure. Make the whole bedroom of floor put mattress in the whole thing. Just like a futon. It's like around folks, we've got a little pour. We'll be right back.

He talks about here, he says, I follow a seasonal eating patterns that allow us to slip in and out of ketosis. If we're feeling really good, we may stay there a little longer. It helps us to think, to perform and to produce. The following is an idea of how and what to eat. Notice that we also go through periods of feast and famine within a 24 to 120 hour fast and huge refeeds where almost nothing resembles primal food is off-limits. So he talks about water fasting, consuming only water and minerals. It's like the single most powerful metabolic intervention in existence. Well, second to a dry fast. Now, dry fast is actually an amazing bet. It's accessible to everybody. It's time and money saving. It's a default way of life in the animal kingdom. Only recently have certain animals, homo sapiens included, had such an easy unlimited and effortless time to find food. Well, think about it. Let's go with our whole discussion of this show. That fasting is very much what a primal person would have experienced. They're looking for their next meal and it may not just be like what we have where it's every two hours at the nearest wah-wah. They pull in and grab something. We haven't got it completely backwards. So I like following people like this. And certainly the products are fantastic. And this is, of course, going into the health signals newsletters, they can read all about it and have access to these sites. But folks, it's really important to understand that highly processed food is not the way to go to each seasonally local fresh as you can. I don't care if you're eating animals or plants, but for me, the animals are the staple that revolves around 90% of what I eat. And the rest of it is not as important. It's more important for me to get what I need from the animal and if I can include some of these things that Brian Johnson is bringing to us, that really, really feeds my brain and the whole body just feels really good when I'm eating this way. And I eat so little if you folks saw what we ate last night as a small pork chop. And we didn't even finish it. And that's all we had. We had a couple pieces for breakfast. I have two eggs and a little sausage. I mean, there's not much. You don't need much. They've been fooling us. That's exactly right because they sell a lot of that junk that's in the shelves. This is great, guys. Get this article, read about the tribal bonding. It's a good little section as the show. Not bad. We'll see you all after vacation, I guess, huh? Yeah. Bye-bye. Thanks a lot.
