• I recently spoke at the Ron Paul Institute, sharing how modern medicine is heavily influenced by pharmaceutical companies, leading to an overreliance on prescriptions rather than addressing root causes of disease. This approach has resulted in poor health outcomes despite high health care spending
• I shared an overview of my new book that comes out next month, Your Guide to Cellular Health, which is now available for preorder on Amazon
• Three major threats to cellular energy production include consumption of seed oils, exposure to plastics containing endocrine disruptors and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from wireless technologies. These factors disrupt mitochondrial function
• Gut health is intricately linked to mitochondrial function. Damaged mitochondria cannot properly remove oxygen from your intestines, allowing harmful bacteria to flourish and produce endotoxins that further compromise health
• Despite current health challenges, future developments, including AI-powered health guidance systems and a growing movement toward understanding and addressing the true causes of disease, offer hope

Carbs Made Simple: A Color-Coded System to Guide Your Gut Health Journey

The method that I discuss in my book ranks carbohydrates based on their impact on your biology, specifically in relation to your gut health. This approach recognizes that the traditional complex vs. simple carb dichotomy likely does not tell the whole story when it comes to individual health outcomes.

Instead, it suggests that the relationship between your gut health and carbohydrate metabolism could be key to unlocking improved overall wellness. It’s not about following a one-size-fits-all diet, but rather about understanding how your unique gut biology interacts with different types of carbohydrates.

Surprisingly, for many people, this approach favors simple carbs over complex ones. This is because they usually have less-than-optimal gut health. If you have a compromised gut system and you consume complex carbs, the fiber and prebiotics in these carbs can feed oxygen-tolerant gut bacteria and worsen your symptoms.

The following chart breaks down several types of carbohydrate sources and how they fit into this plan. We can categorize them into three groups: green, yellow and red.

In the green category are the most easily digestible simple carbs that provide quick energy without overtaxing your compromised digestive system. You will focus on these carbs initially, because simple carbs provide a quick energy boost for your cells and mitochondria. It’s like giving your body’s energy factories an immediate fuel injection, while allowing your gut to rest and heal at the same time.

Next is the yellow category, which includes carbs that offer more nutrients and fiber compared to the green category, yet are still relatively easy on the digestive system. Finally the red category, the most complex carbs, offers many health benefits but can be challenging for a compromised gut to handle.

So how can you begin implementing this approach? If you have severely compromised gut health, start with pure sugar water. This is a temporary measure to jumpstart the healing process. Mix one-half pound, up to a full pound, of pure dextrose (glucose) into a half gallon of water and sip it slowly all day. Don’t drink more than an ounce at a time to avoid spiking your insulin.

Once your gut health has improved, you can switch your primary carb source to whole foods. More than likely, you’ll also need to eat more frequently than you’re used to during this transition to avoid hypoglycemia. Eating every three to four hours, with snacks throughout the day, is crucial when relying on simple carbs for energy.

As your mitochondrial energy production continues to improve and your gut starts to heal, you will begin the transition back to complex carbs. This is a slow and steady process — don’t rush it.

Once you’re able to include more complex carbohydrates in your diet, you’ll start to notice significant benefits. You’ll be able to extend the time between meals to between four and six hours, and many people find they can comfortably switch to a three-meals-a-day approach. This is because complex carbs digest more slowly, providing a steady stream of energy.

Rice is a dietary staple for a large percentage of the world’s population and has been for centuries.

While people ate brown rice the nutrition provided was good. When the preference switched to the more palatable and more easily chewable white rice, nutritional deficiencies resulted.

White rice is produced by removing the bran and germ of the rice grain, leaving only the starchy endosperm. While this process extends shelf life and provides a quicker cooking time, it also removes critical nutrients, most notably thiamine (vitamin B1). Thiamine deficiency is the leading cause of beriberi.

Also, refined carbohydrates like white rice have been linked to a host of modern health issues, including obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. For this reason what little rice I consume is brown rice.

For those who prefer white rice over brown there is a process by which the negative impacts of white rice can be reduced. Obviously you cannot replace the lost nutrients by other than supplementing but you can decrease the inflammatory effects of white rice with this tip.

Resistant starch is a type of starch that resists digestion in the small intestine and ferments in the large intestine, feeding the beneficial bacteria in the gut. This not only improves digestive health but also increases feelings of fullness, reduces inflammation, and improves insulin sensitivity.

Here’s the hack: cook your rice with a teaspoon of coconut oil, then cool it for 12 hours before reheating. This simple process can increase the resistant starch content of rice by up to 10 times! The coconut oil interacts with the starch molecules, making them more resistant to digestion, while the cooling process further crystallizes the starch. The result is a healthier, more satisfying rice that won’t send your blood sugar on a roller coaster.

In the ever-evolving world of nutrition and weight loss, few food groups have been as controversial as dairy. Once hailed as a cornerstone of a healthy diet, then vilified as a contributor to weight gain, dairy products have experienced a rollercoaster of public opinion. However, recent scientific research is shedding new light on the potential benefits of dairy in weight management, revealing some surprising findings that may change how we view these nutrient-dense foods.

Dairy products have been a part of human diets for over 7,000 years, valued not just for their taste but also for their nutritional density. Throughout history, milk, cheese, and yogurt have been staples in many cultures, providing essential nutrients like calcium, protein, and various vitamins. However, as obesity rates began to rise in the late 20th century, dairy products — particularly those high in saturated fat — came under scrutiny when the anti-saturated fat campaign began.

Recent studies have begun to challenge the notion that dairy products are a causal factor for weight gain.¹ In fact, emerging evidence suggests that dairy might play a beneficial role in fat loss and body composition. Let’s dive into some of the intriguing findings.

One of my clients was kind enough to send the following after my previous post on Boron.

Hi Tom

It’s interesting that you had such a positive story to tell about Boron AKA Borax.

My husband would have extreme back pain just before it rained. It was good for me because I knew when to take out my umbrella but very debilitating for him.

He took the Boron (I got the recipe from Bitchute.com) and he is no longer my weather reporter. He is pain free.

I wanted to let you know about another one of the supposed “wives tales” that just happen to work.

My husband was experiencing seizures and they were increasing in both quantity and severity. We didn’t go to the doctor because the Big Pharma cures have side effects that are worse than the disease. The last seizure he had was terrible and at the end of the seizure he said he’d had an NDE (near-death experience).

After this shock I felt an urgent need for a cure. I happened to Google a snippet from a woman who had a daughter with severe epilepsy and she said since taking a teaspoon of Castor Oil occasionally there had been no more seizures.

I remember some of my friends complaining that their mother would line them up for a weekly dose of Castor Oil so I though “What the heck…we have nothing to lose” so I dosed my husband and “Viola” no more seizures.

I think one of the side effects of the jab is seizures so this may be of help for some other people.

Have a wonderful day!

The first line is obviously completely false but the article has some good data.
