Author and nutritionist David Wolfe discusses nutritional myths

Kevin: Let’s take another turn here and talk a bit about some of the common things that people are experiencing today and maybe if you could give some suggestions on what they can do to help them. I know we will start with osteoporosis to begin with. Many women are concerned about osteoporosis and are concerned about calcium and taking these calcium pills. You know, what are some of the pros and cons of that?

David: Well, the nations that consume the most calcium, the United States, Canada and the Scandinavian countries, have the worst osteoporosis and that is because our theory of mineralization or our theory of nutrition is incorrect. The general theory is that a hundred years ago they began to examine people’s bones. They found that out, oh my gosh; these bones are made of calcium. When people don’t have enough bone density, the thinking is, oh, they just have to eat more calcium because that’s what builds bones. Calcium does not build bones and that is one of the biggest misconceptions in history and, in fact, it goes to the real core of our problems with science. And that is the human body is a complex biological machine of an incredible mystery. And there is strong evidence that if you are ingesting some of the calcium, let’s say it’s coral calcium, for example, oyster shell calcium. That it is almost impossible to introduce this material into the bones to increase bone density. The amount of increasing bone density is 1-2% at best. It is not good enough.

What increases bone density? Well, it turns out that they are two other minerals and they are silicon and magnesium. Now the best natural source of magnesium is cocoa and cocoa is known to be good for your teeth. In fact, there are chemicals in cocoa that kill the Streptococci mutans organism that causes cavities. And indeed, those chocolate extracts will now appear in everyone’s toothpaste.

Kevin: Seriously?

David: That is incredible. That to me is such a dramatic irony.

Kevin: Wow.

Kevin Wolfe: All along, chocolate has been good for your teeth. It’s the sugar that has been bad, but even then, even then, there have been studies on people who eat chocolate even with sugar and have come across a study done in Scandinavia on this. It has been found that even then, people who eat chocolate have had tooth health than people who do not. That is amazing to me. But let’s move on to silicon because this is the mineral that is hard to come by in today’s diet. What is silicon? It is a mineral. You have it in the skin of cucumbers. It is in the skin of the bell peppers. It is the skin of tomatoes. It is in certain special herbs, which I am going to name and you can drink this as a tea or take it in supplemental form and you will notice that it helps with your bone density.

And here are the herbs. One of them is called ponytail, ponytail and it is not ponytail. Actually, it is a herb. Another is the nettle. Nettles have been eaten by druids in the UK for thousands of years and it is one of the most important foods to eat if you know how to make it or if you squeeze it or you can just dry it and make tea out of it. , which is what I recommend; horsetail, nettle, oat straw. The oat seed of the oat grass has a bit of straw around it. It has a little coating. It is the seed capsule. That oat straw is one of the richest sources of silicon. You can buy it in health food stores. You can get extracts at health food stores.

You can get it raw and make your own tea from it. Combine those three and you want to add alfalfa, which is also a great source of silicon. You can make a tea out of it or you can just eat them any way you can find them. And you will find if you make three strong teas

of that per day your bone density will start to increase, but how? It is silicon. Now, how does silicon increase calcium? I mean that doesn’t make sense. It is because our theory of minerals is wrong. Our atomic theory is wrong. And is that if you eat foods rich in silicon your body, through the power of enzymes transmutes it into calcium, converts silicon into calcium. That was discovered by a great French researcher named Louis Curvan, a Nobel Prize nominee, who wrote five books and 5,000 pages of research on this particular topic; how silicon and calcium are related to each other.

He was very honored in France and is intimately intertwined with the science of what is happening in France; But due to the language barrier, his research never really reached the English-speaking nations.

Kevin: Interesting when we’re still taking calcium pills from, you know, seashells and all.

David: I recommend it to God, you know, this is so ingrained in our minds about calcium that if you are confused about this, go online and research exactly who gets the results of remineralization of their bones and you will find that they are people who do not They are. taking these forms of calcium that are toxic, which is calcium from the oyster shell and, to some extent, even calcium from coral.

Kevin: Now, the bones are alkaline and the acidity of the meats and the sugars, doesn’t it devour them? I mean, has that been proven or is it just a theory that I think I have, you know?

David: Well that’s a great question and that’s the other side of the osteoporosis equation. One is that we must make sure we get the proper nutrition to build strong bones. The other side of the equation is that we must make sure that we are doing things that do not harm our bones. Eating a lot of sugar is one of the worst things we can do to the general health of our teeth, which are living bones, and to the density of our bones because when we eat a lot of sugar, our body has to use calcium, it has to. extract calcium from the bones to buffer or neutralize the intense acidity of the sugar. Calcium is very alkaline, like you said. Our bones are alkaline and therefore alkaline minerals are used whenever we are exposed to real strong acids. Sugar is a very strong acid. I mean, you know, we used to dissolve the corrosion on the battery terminals of our bus by pouring soda on it because the sugar just dissolves and the phosphoric acid just dissolves all the corrosion directly on the battery terminal. I mean you don’t want to put that on your body. That’s dangerous.

Kevin: Let’s go into small supplements. And you walk into a health food store and there are literally thousands of them. How do you go through them to find the ones that help with weight loss and longevity, is that really what I think the fountain of youth is all about? Which of those are the best? I mean rhodiola, turmeric, cinnamon. I mean, which ones should people focus on, not necessarily take, but should they focus on?

David: That is an excellent question. My job is basically to guide people to health food stores and create order out of chaos. There are many things. Well, well, the most important thing, in my opinion, that you can buy in a health food store in that department is going to be vitamin C.

Kevin: Good. In what way?

David: Well, there are different ways. Now, I recommend that you start experimenting, moving away from synthetic forms of vitamin C or ascorbic acid, which are still beneficial, still good for you, and move towards powdered plants, very rich in vitamin C. For example, you can get Acerola cherry. It is a tropical berry that is very rich in vitamin C. It is like 1 or 2% vitamin C and basically what they do is grow these berries. They are dried, pulverized and encapsulated or put in a glass jar and sold in health food stores as vitamin C. Now that’s a great way to get a lot of natural vitamin C with all the cofactors. Vitamin C needs cofactors like rutin and bioflavonoids that are naturally present in those powders, like Acerola cherry. You can take it as a supplement in capsules or add it to your shakes. You can literally put it in the water you drink in the morning and it sweetens the water. It sweetens the water but does not sweeten the water.

Kevin: Understood.

David: Vitamin C is sweet but not sugary. So it makes the morning water easier to drink. So that’s one thing, vitamin C. The next is, what I think it is, the biggest discovery of the last, probably in the last hundred years in the field of nutrition, besides vitamin C and enzymes, And that’s sulfur, MSM, Methylsulfonylmethane. MSM is a biologically available form of sulfur that occurs naturally in wild foods, unattended foods. We don’t really have access to that anymore. I mean, almost all of our food is grown on farms for us. It is not being watered naturally by rain. I’m talking about the natural sulfur that is produced in the oceans and that helps create clouds and then drops them on the land that we need nutritionally to produce flexible collagen. Now what in the world does that mean? It means that sulfur produces supple skin and supple muscle tissue. It essentially stops wrinkles and increases the juiciness of collagen and discs, the joints that basically separate our bones from each other. In addition to all that, it increases the growth of our hair, our nails, so that we have a thicker and richer growth of our hair and nails. All of this can be easily experienced within two weeks of taking MSM.

Kevin: It will grow like weeds.

David: It is truly amazing and people who want fast and thick growth of their hair and nails are almost always surprised by how powerful MSM can be. You can get it in capsule form. You can get it in powder form. It is now available in all health food stores. Once you start

By researching it, and especially when you take it, this is what you are going to find out. You will discover that it is one of the most important things you have ever taken. I have randomly surveyed hundreds of people about MSM. I almost always get a T here from people who have taken it before. Oh, MSM changed my life. I’ve heard it dozens of times, that exact quote. Oh, MSM changed my life.
