The Big Secret - Full Medical Documentary
This documentary explores the truth behind some of today's most widely-accepted medical practices, and seeks to expose how the focus on corporate profits influences traditional medical treatment in the United States.
Here is my collection of information about the health impact of radiation, including from electro magnetic frequency (EMF), radio frequency (From cell phones, WiFi routers and cell towers) and ionizing radiation from X-Rays.
Supplements
I have a vast spreadsheet I've been keeping for two and a half years listing dozens of supplements with information about their benefits, how and when to take them and dose recommendations... but it's messy and need to be cleaned up. Will include the info here when I get a chance. If you know me, message me.
What labels to look for at the Grocery store
Organic This means no pesticides or preservatives were added. These will destroy good gut bacteria and may cause cancer. Go natural!
Non-GMO This means the food is not a Genetically Modified Organism. This means it was produced in nature, not in a laboratory. GMO's have been linked to cancer.
No Soy This food product is an endocrine disruptor. It may cause developmental malformations, interference with reproduction, increased cancer risk; and disturbances in the immune and nervous system function. Other known endocrine disruptors are BPA, pesticides, lead, arsenic, mercury and PFC chemicals. Always check ingredients for Soy.
Gluten Free Gluten are proteins found in Grains including all Breads, Baked Goods, Pasta, Cereals and Beer. According to the FDA whole grains only need to be 51% whole grain to be considered as such. Most grains in the US are processed in a way that destroys the natural vitamins, therefore most grains are now fortified with vitamins typically from a low quality petroleum base. These grains spike blood sugar, cause inflammation, angina, high glycemic index, cause weight gain, cognitive issues, less focus or concentration, mood issues such as irritability, anxiety and fatigue. It's best to avoid gluten when possible or opt for "Gluten Free" alternatives.
Low salt (Preferably Sea Salt, or Pink Himalayan Salt). Salt is essential for body fluid balance, nerve health, nutrient absorption, and muscle function. However too much salt may cause high blood pressure.
No sugar (Preferably), however low sugar is ok (Preferably Cane Sugar). Sugar causes obesity, high blood pressure, immune system disorders, accelerated aging, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver disease, breast cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, anxiety, depression, Alzheimer's, impaired memory and damages healthy gut bacteria.
No artificial sweeteners. If food says No Sugar, check ingredients to make sure that no Aspartame, Sucralose or Sacharrin added. These chemical sweeteners have been shown to cause more damage to gut microbiome (the gut ecosystem) than sugar, and can cause enlarged liver and kidneys, neuropsychiatric disorders, and cancer.
No High Fructose Corn Syrup This food product boosts your hunger and promotes obesity more than ordinary sugar. It causes diabetes, inflammation, high triglycerides and fatty liver disease. It is most commonly found in junk food and sodas.
No Seed Oils Common seed or vegetable oils are corn, canola, soy, sunflower, cottonseed, safflower or grapeseed oil. The seeds are heated to extremely high temperatures and are placed under enormous pressure to create the oil. For further extraction, Hexane, a Gasoline solvent is added. Since Hexane makes the oil smell revolting, bleach and deodorant are added to make the oil palatable. There are 21 stages required to bleach and deodorize the oil so that it’s fit for consumption. Vegetable oils are full of free radicals which have been shown to damage body tissues, promote inflammation, cause cancer and heart disease. The healthy alternatives are Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Extra Virgin Coconut Oil.
No Food Dyes Can cause symptoms of ADD, ADHD and hyperactivity.
Here are some notes I recently took after watching an interesting video linked here:
HEALTHY FOODS That Heal The Body, Starve Cancer & PREVENT DISEASE! | Dr. William Li & Lewis Howes
The body has five health defense systems against disease and cancer.
1. Angiogenesis
The body can grow new blood vessels for example during muscle growth or to heal injury.
2. Stem cells
750 million stem cells are stored in our bone marrow for when our body needs to repair or regenerate.
Foods such as Cacao chocolate can coax stem cells out of the bone marrow so we can regenerate faster.
3. Gut Microbiome
There are 39 trillion bacteria in the body. The gut bacteria controls our metabolism, communicates with our brain and can help us heal from inside out. Gut walls have several layers, one layer is inhabited by the gut bacteria and the layer next to it is inhabited by 70% of the bodies immune system. The gut bacteria talks to immune system through the gut walls. Some gut bacteria can signal your brain and release social hormones that can effect your mood. Autism, Alzheimer's, schizophrenia are all connected to bad gut bacteria. It is important to have a balanced gut microbiome (eco system). Some foods can kill the microbiome and some foods can help support it. Sugar wrecks gut microbiome and artificial sweeteners are even worse!
4. DNA
DNA makes 10,000 mistakes a day. We get DNA damage from too much ultraviolet light, inhaling toxic fumes, chemicals, radiation, etc. So why don't we get cancer all the time? Because our DNA is hard wired to protect itself from this damage. Certain foods can speed up DNA repair. Another defense of DNA is Telomeres. If your DNA is a shoe lace, your Telomere is the plastic cap at end of the shoe lace... overtime it wears down.. and burns down like a light fuse.. when it burns that cell is done. We need to SLOW DOWN CELLULAR AGING... Smoking, sitting, exposure to damaging oxidative stress, or being stressed-out all shorten your Telomeres! Certain foods can slow down, or reverse the aging of Telomeres. Foods that can lengthen Telomeres are Green Tea, Coffee and Leafy Greens.
5. Immune system
The immune system is so powerful that when it's in it's best shape, even when you are 80 years old, it can wipe out metastatic cancer. You must help support it. Top foods to help boost immune system are Blueberries and Broccoli Sprouts.
Cancer Notes: Two Apples a day contain quercetin which cuts off blood supply for cancer and Green Tea is loaded with polyphenols that get into bloodstream and starve cancer.
Avoid Sugar, Artificial Sweeteners, processed meats (chemical preservatives), instant foods (usually boxed or canned) such as TV Dinners, and Cereals all of which harm DNA, lowers immunity, screws up gut microbiome, impairs angiogenesis, and causes cells to age faster (Telomeres burn down faster).
Additional Notes:
Fasting turns on cancer suppression genes.
Stress causes adrenal glands which sit on top of kidneys to release a lot of cortisol. This puts demand on the heart, changes microbiome, wrecks circulation, screws up stem cells, lowers immunity, and causes us to be more inflamed. We need more sleep, exercise, and time with friends and family. Dark chocolate (Cacao) helps gut bacteria, improves brain function, reduces stress and anxiety and has fiber as well. The gut microbiome can send signals to the brain (GABA, Dopamine and Serotonin). It is important to support a healthy gut with prebiotic foods Broccoli, Brussel Sprouts, Mushrooms, and Kiwi (one kiwi can reset microbiome overnight) and probiotics such as Yogurt, Sauerkraut, and Kimchi

Antioxidants
• Foods with high levels of antioxidants can help protect cells against free radical damage.
• Free radicals are produced by normal cell processes in addition to sun exposure, smoking, illness, diet, and other stressors. They can affect how other cells in the body function and may impact the aging process.
• Antioxidants work by soaking up free radicals so they can't damage healthy cells.
Antioxidant-rich foods include:
Leafy greens (kale, spinach, or collard greens)
Nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans, and other nuts)
Dark chocolate (must be at least 70% cocoa)
Beans (red beans, pinto beans, black beans, and other legumes)
Berries (raspberries, blueberries, blackberries)
