Anti Aging

Welcome to the anti-aging seminar. Today, we’re going to answer a question. Is it possible to reverse the aging process or at least slow it down? I believe it is. So, before we get into how to do that, I want to talk about a big problem in healthcare we’re running into right now.

And that has to do with there is no prevention. It’s all treating symptoms. It’s not preventing anything. So, let me just show you something right here. This is a book um called Frank Netder, MD, Endocrinology.

And we’re going to talk about the adrenal gland because there’s an aging hormone. It’s called cortisol. And cortisol will make you older. And so you need to know about it. You need to know how to undo it and slow it down.

And this is what it says. The normal adrenal gland has an enormous functional reserve. Indeed, the adrenal deficiency does not become clinically manifest until 9/10 of the adrenal has been rendered unresponsive. Now, what does that mean? That means that before it shows up in a blood test, it has to be 90% destroyed.

You see the problem? If you wait for your adrenals to be showing up in a blood test, it’s too late. And the same thing goes with um the heart. Does anyone know the first symptom of a heart attack over 50% of the time? Well, guess what it is?

It’s actually there is no symptom. It’s death. You just die. So, sometimes your body gives clues, sometimes your body does not give clues. You really can’t go by symptoms.

Same thing with the liver. Your liver has to be almost completely destroyed before it shows up in a blood test. So, what we’re going to get in today is some of the problems, some of the solutions in relationship to the anti-aging cycle. All right, there’s two situations you have right here. You have creating health, okay, versus treating disease.

So the medical model is this over here treating disease and that’s basically what they do. I want to set up a new model and that’s called creating health and avoiding disease. It’s completely different. What we want to do is we want to stay over here and how do we create health? Well, through your foods, the nutrients in your foods, the type of exercise, the sleep, the things you’re doing to reduce stress.

All these things are creating health. And of course, the counter creating of the health is just the opposite. You know, it’s what you’re putting in your food as far as junk foods, bad foods, artificial things, alcohol, not sleeping, stressing your body out. All those things are countercreating your health. But there’s also something else and that has to do with doing nothing.

All right? Doing nothing is countercreating your health because if you do nothing, it’s your body’s going to fall apart. So, if you sit on the couch all day, you’re not going to create any health, are you? You’re going to counterreate your health. So, here’s the thing.

Here’s the problem with treating the disease model. What happens is that the doctor says you have to wait. You have to wait six months and we’re going to test you again. So, every six months, we’re going to test you. We’re going to test you until you have this disease.

Well, by the time you wait, you’re already going to have it. So, my suggestion is that we actively and aggressively create your health now because the odds are against you. Do you realize that cancer takes 20 years to grow in your body before it even shows up on a test? 20 years. That’s two decades.

So you really can’t wait. And then because when you wait and then you actually are diagnosed, it takes incredible energy to undo this thing. In fact, when you get chemotherapy, the success rate after 5 years is only 2%. So the disease model, treating the disease model doesn’t work. It’s very very expensive and the prognosis is not very good and there’s a lot of side effects because the drugs create other complications.

What I suggest is we do this. We really focus on this creating health thing because this is all if you want to know about anti-aging, it’s right here. It’s all about creating your health. It’s about creating your cells healthier. It’s like building this thing up that will make you younger.

I’m doing it personally. In about 3 years, I’ll be 50. I feel like I’m 20, but when I was in my 20s, I felt like I was 90. So, I’ve been actively building up my health and creating my health. And I will tell you that this model really works.

So, my goal with you is to make you more aware of this right here. Put your attention on this, okay? Because every single day, whether you know it or not, you’re either creating your health or you’re countercreating your health, which is basically creating disease. So, there are little actions that you can do each day that make a huge difference. But there’s really two mistakes that people make.

Number one is waiting until they have a problem. And men are notorious for this because they tend to be more macho or they wait. They don’t want to admit that they have weaknesses. And I treat small percentage of men, but only because their wife dragged them to my office and then they decide, okay, I’m ready to do something about it. But women tend to be more responsible.

Hopefully you men in the audience are going to be more responsible today. But what we want to do is we want to not wait anymore. We want to take action. Waiting never works because sooner or later you are going to have a health problem. I know some of you have uh parents or grandparents in your family right now that just out of the blue got sick and now all the family is sucked into trying to help this person.

So waiting always leads to more problems down the down the road. So that’s that’s mistake number one. Mistake number two is that you have no health goal or your goal is too small. It’s like what is your health goal? Well, I don’t know.

I’m just going to wait till see what happens to my life in a couple years. My goal for my body is to get younger every year that I get older. Does that sound like a good idea? Yeah, absolutely. Because if you do that, if you actively create on your health, then guess what happens to this disease state?

You avoid it. In fact, when it’s like learning karate, then no one wants to fight you. you’re actively countering and bulletproofing your health for the future. And so that way you take yourself out of the risk factors and out of the state where your doctor’s saying, “Hey, let’s wait in 6 months and let’s test you and see when you have it so then we can treat you with a drug. ” I want to aggressively actively promote and create a health reserve that you are totally bulletproof for the future.

Now, let’s talk about the three mistakes that people make repetitively over and over and over without really knowing they’re making a mistake. The first mistake is these things called ant-ioxidants. Now, I know some of you are taking them. Vitamin E and vitamin C and the and I guess the Chinese herb tea that you’re drinking and the ginko and all that stuff. Well, let me explain something.

The whole free radical theory is a myth. Now, before you reject that, because I was the guy that was pushing that at one time, thinking that there’s these free radicals going around destroying our body, making ourselves older until I started to go and read some of the studies that were done on these antioxidants. So, let me read you a couple. These are scientific studies that will show you that these um the antioxidants either don’t work or they make you worse. Check this out.

Here’s one. on the alpha tcopherel that’s vitamin E beta uh kerotin that’s vitamin A prevention study this was done in 29,000 people okay it increases taking antioxidants increase the risk of cardiac death stroke and risk for coronary events okay the the trial was stopped early all right the next one called the pilot prevention study done in 751 people neither beta carotene or vitamin C or vitamin E reduced the incident
