A great interview covering many areas of health.
Here are some of the gems.
“…very often our foods are just so nutrient deficient… …so we are nutrient deficient… …human beings are not as sick as we have been led to believe we are… …the majority, in my opinion, of pathology and disease as we know it today, are nutrient deficiencies, missing raw material in the human body. And we just accept all these things as the consequence of aging, water retention, lack of sleep, poor focus and concentration, lack of waking energy, hormone imbalance and we think that the body has all of these different pathologies and diseases but the truth is it’s usually nutrient deficiencies. It’s astounding what happens to the human body when you give it the raw material it needs to do its job.”
Re folic acid, the artificial form of folate, it is not able to be converted to the required methyl folate by 44% of the population (those who have the MTHFR gene mutation) and “is correlated to higher incidences of ADD, ADHD, OCD, manic depression, bipolar, poor gut motility, mood imbalance, anxiety…”.
The average parent who feeds their kid folic acid enriched cereals and grains for breakfast, if the kid is not able to process folic acid, is doing the equivalent of feeding their kid cocaine – it makes their mind race.
Once in the life everybody should get a test done to see if they have any of these 5 genes mutations:
MTHFR
MTRR
MTR
AHCY
CompT
If they do and they supplement to compensate, magical things will happen in their body.
