Mission, Core Five, And Proximity

SPEAKER_00

Welcome to Proximity with Ken Jocelyn. I am Ken Jocelyn, your host, founder of GrowStack Drive, and everything we do here is driven by one mission. To help one million faith-based entrepreneurs become the best version of themselves in what we call our Core Five framework: faith, health, relationships, business, and finances. Here's the truth that most people miss. Your life does not move in the direction of your intentions, it moves in the direction of your proximity. Who you're near matters. Who you listen to matters. And the rooms that you choose to enter matter probably more than you know. This podcast is built on the principles from my book, The 14 Frequencies of Proximity, where I break down the internal frequencies you must develop to attract the right relationships, gain clarity, and step into the next level that God has for your life. You'll hear real conversations with faith-driven entrepreneurs, leaders, and high performers. Many of them voices from Create, the number one faith-based entrepreneur conference in America, that I host right here in Atlanta every single year in January. This isn't about hustle culture. This isn't motivation for the moment. This is about alignment, discipline, and becoming the person your future requires. If you're ready to grow in your Core Five framework and get closer to the people and environments that accelerate your growth, you're in the right place. Here's what I want you guys to do. So tonight I'm going to give you guys a little teaser of what's coming ahead at Create on January 28th, 29th, and 30th. Is we will spend two days going through these five areas. And guys, I have some of the most amazing human beings on the planet who are going to be speaking in these areas. Gary is the number one guy really on the planet. You guys, I showed you my before and after picture. You guys all follow and know Gary. Gary, I was telling him about being in your condo at the Porsche Design Tower with your Google board five years ago, bro. Yeah, I remember that. And so for me, it's it has been a personal, it's been a personal journey. So I'm going to turn Gary loose for about 25 to 30 minutes. And Gary, what I want to do is I'd love to save about 15 minutes at the end of your talk to answer some questions from the audience tonight.

SPEAKER_02

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_00

And then, guys, we're going to give you guys an opportunity. Then when Gary's done, I've I've got Josh coming in behind him to talk about energy, hormone replacements, and the things that he does there because that's just as massive. I'll say this, guys. I'll never forget our first create conference. I don't know, 150 people in the room. It was our very first one we ever did. This year, our goal is 1200. 150 people in the room. Gary does his talk, and we're talking about our master. We're talking about our mastermind. We just lost our mastermind. And I'm standing on stage, and Gary puts his hand on my shoulder and he says, Anybody in the room that joins this mastermind with Ken, Sage and I are going to be apart, and I will oversee your health journey for the next year. And I literally looked at Gary on film and I was like, What did you just say? And this was before anybody knew who Gary was. So that's not an option now. But guys, I there is absolutely no way in the world that we at GSD or Create Conference would have the impact that we have right now if it weren't for this man. So do me a favor, guys, put your hands together. Welcome, my friend Gary Breckett. Gary, before it's all yours, bro.

SPEAKER_02

I can see you clapping, but I can't hear you clapping. So there's just so many areas that we could go down in the health and wellness, longevity, anti-aging, biooptimization area. Thank you guys. So hi Lisa. Hi, Christian. But I want to talk about a talk that I did last night at Mar-a-Lago, and it's centered around the direction for Maha, the Make America Healthy Again movement. I'm the co-chair of the Maha Action and also the co-chair of the President's Fitness Council. And I have never, this is not a political statement by any means. I have never seen an administration that is so unified around making America healthy again. And I'm talking about our centers for disease. I'm talking about the National Institute of Health, the National Library of Medicine, our Department of Agriculture, our Environmental Protection Agency. Massive, massive wins, you know, for the American people. But the conversation centered around some very poignant questions about what is going to happen to modern medicine? How's modern medicine going to evolve in the next five to 10 years? And I'll tell you this: it looks very, very bright. And it looks bright for a number of reasons. I say very often, and I deeply believe this, and I'm happy to give you the evidence if you'd like to see it. I'm a nerd. So if you're a nerd like I am and want to see the science behind this, I'm happy to give it to you. But if you're alive five years from today, it will be your choice whether or not you want to live to age 120 or age 140. It'd be your choice. And the reason for that is for the first time in modern medical history, we have the convergence of artificial intelligence, big data, and early detection. We also have a scientific community that's leading the regulatory environment by about 25 years. And that acceleration in regulatory lanes widening is going to happen. It is already happening, but you're going to see it happen at an accelerated pace over the next three years. Lanes widening for peptides, things like blood filtration, things like natural killer cells, much to the point of our faith-based journey. What is astounding is that as I have traveled the world for the last 10 years, and I have aggressively traveled the world, and I've met with the leading pioneers in anti-aging, longevity, and biooptimization and functional medicine. These are my heroes. These are the real PhDs and MDs, the real researchers that are just leading the forefront for humanity and accelerating modern medical treatments. Here's what's happened. And the pioneering leaders in all of the areas of longevity science, anti-aging research, biooptimization research now believe more in what God gave us than what man makes us. And the reason why I say that is that if you look at where the research is focused and where true life extension is beginning to happen, it's beginning to happen around areas of strengthening the immune system. It's beginning to happen around areas of removing toxicity from the body, not adding chemicals, synthetics, and pharmaceuticals to the body. This is called subtractive medicine. We're learning that the leading theory in all of aging medicine is the theory of immuno fatigue, a slow, progressive overwhelming of the immune system. Finally, instead of being called a charlatan, I'm actually being called the thought leader because for 10 years, you know, 10 years I have preached that I don't believe that 85% of autoimmune disease, and everybody listening to this call right now either has or knows somebody who is suffering from an autoimmune disease, whether it's Crohn's or Hashimoto's, you know, the thyroid issues, chagrines, multiple sclerosis, lupus, some kind of autoimmune disorder. Yet, yet for 50 years, we've accepted that 85% of these diseases are idiopathic. They're of unknown origin. So we've accepted the assumption that God made a mistake, that the immune system went haywire for no explained reason at all and decided to attack your colon. So you have Crohn's, it attacked the lacrimal gland of your eye, you have chagrines, it attacked your thyroid. So now you have Hashimoto's. It attacked the myelin sheath of your nerve and you have multiple sclerosis. It's eating your blood and you have lupus. And why is it doing this? Well, we don't know. But what we do know is that the immune system made a mistake and it's attacking you for no reason. And this is 85% of the category of this broad terminology that we use to refer to autoimmune. We know now that that is complete nonsense. The immune system just doesn't arrive to a tissue and attack it for no reason. The immune system arrives to a tissue because it's hyper-vigilant and is trying to protect you from something. And if you look at the five biggest categories for this mold, mycotoxin, parasite, virus, and heavy metal, you would get to the root cause of why 85% of autoimmune disease is called to different organs. You know, there's a vast majority of people that suffer from Hashimoto's, which is immune system attacking your thyroid, have heavy metals embedded in the thyroid. The immune system's not after your thyroid tissue. It's trying to get metals out of cells and has to manufacture antibodies to break down the wall of that cell. The vast majority of people that are suffering from Crohn's have a condition called leaky gut, where they've interrupted the single cell layer, the barrier between the inside luminal wall of their gut and their bloodstream. And those that toxin that should be outside of your body is now inside of your body, and the immune system has arrived to battle those toxins, keep them from poisoning you. And in its in its fight against toxicity, it actually manufactured an antibody to those cells. If I was to take an object, I'll do it, just a simple demonstration. Let's say that this credit card was a mold spore, or it was a mycotoxin, or it was a parasite or virus or a heavy metal, and this was a healthy cell. This does not hide like this. It hides like this. That's a really important distinction because the immune system is hyper-vigilant and no different than if someone in your town robbed a bank and ran into your house and barricaded yourself and themselves in your house. The police would bust down your door to get to the perpetrator because the police are hyper-vigilant and they want to get to this perpetrator. And the immune system is no different. It's not after this, it's not after your healthy cell, it's after this. But in order to reach this, it doesn't have permission to come inside. So what does it do when it reaches the door of that cell? It manufactures an antibody to bust it down and get to the perpetrator. And yet we hold the immune system responsible for a crime it's not committing. We hit it with immunosuppressants, we dose the body with anti-inflammatories to calm the immune response, and we say you have an autoimmune disease. You know, we're we're blowing through the myth that disease, the vast majority of disease, because it runs in families, is genetically inherited. In fact, the human genome is specifically designed to not pass on disease. None of the 74 people on this call right now would be on this call if your immune system, if your genome was not designed to not pass on disease. Your ancestors had plenty of disease and pathology that were not passed on to you because your genome would not allow those to be passed on. God developed things like spontaneous abortion, infertility, lack of implantation to safeguard us from the transgression of disease. And now we're starting to realize we made a really big mistake betting against our innate immune system, betting against the God-given body that we all that we all live in. This incredible machine turns every cellular structure over every 84 days. If I met you 84 days from today, you'd be an entirely different cellular human being, right down to the almost the last living cell. So why is it that we don't believe that we can heal from just about anything that ails us? And so this disbelief has fostered a medical system that has turned a trillion-dollar industry from managing symptoms and maintaining disease. It's it's it's symptom management and disease maintenance. That's where the money is. Money is not in cure, the money is not in prevention, the money is maintaining symptoms and maintaining disease. And now we can't hide from it any longer because the big data is telling us otherwise. This is why you saw the Food and Drug Administration remove black box warnings from female hormone therapy two weeks ago, because they realized that the data proved that female hormone therapy reduced the risk of breast cancer, didn't exacerbate the risk of breast cancer. This is why you see now the Journal of American Urology publicized new guidelines for physicians in hormone therapy. And I'm glad you're hearing from somebody after this who's who's going to preach about hormones. I'm a huge fan, dispelling the myth that it increased the cardiovascular risk, that it dispelling the myth that it led to increased risk of uh prostate cancer or exacerbated prostate cancer. All it's all of those things are patently false. And so the best medicine now is what we call subtractive medicine, where we go into human beings. You know, it's it's the old adage that when a fish gets sick, the first thing you do is clean the tank. But when a human being gets sick, we leave it in the tank of toxic soup and we start messing with the fish, right? We try to heal the fish in a bowl of toxic soup. If you continue to bathe your cellular biology in a toxic soup, well, then you're gonna get the consequences of the environment that you're in. This is what happens to fish, right? So is there a fish veterinarian, like a fissionarian? Who's who's who's like a spada the practice of like healing? I don't know, but let's call them a fissionarian. If you were a fissionarian, you would clean the tank, right? I mean, that's the that's what that's what we know. I made that term up. If you start using it, remember where you heard it first. But you know, we we we we clean the tank. And we know now that in autoimmune and chronic disease and so many pathological conditions, if we don't clean the tank, that there's no chance of healing the fish, there's no chance that the biome will heal. Well, now we have advances in blood filtration technology. There are filters now that will take circulating tumor cells right out of your bloodstream and your plasma. There are technologies that will take heavy metals, mold spores, mycotoxins, parasites, viruses. I'm talking taking these things to zero. And what happens when you subtract the toxicity? You exacerbate the healing. You allow the immune system to do its job. Because when you were age zero to age 13, the vast majority of time your immune system spent, if you look at the number of 24 hours in a day, the vast majority of that time was not spent protecting you. It was spent policing you. It actually made sure that there was order in the castle walls. And what it did was it went after things called senescent cells, red blood cells that could no longer carry oxygen were still alive. It would eat those and turn them into energy. It would eat platelets that could no longer carry growth factors. It would consume white blood cells that could no longer amount an immune defense. So all these cellular structures that could no longer serve you, but were actually taking up space and not being replaced, the immune system would take care of that. And then what we did was we started micropoisoning ourselves to death, right? Heavy metals, mold and mycotoxins, parasites, viruses. Vast majority of modern medicine doesn't even believe in parasitic infections or chronic viral infections. They don't even believe that mold toxicity is an issue. And then we started putting in glyphosate and parroqua and insecticides and pesticides and herbicides and what we call forever chemicals, chemicals that your body doesn't have an enzyme to get rid of. We started soaking all of our mattresses in flame retardants. So we lay on outgassing volatile organic chemicals for a third of our lifetime. Spend a third of your life on your mattress. And yet these mattresses, by law, are soaked in flame retardants, polyfluoral alkyls, VOCs, and they outgas for up to 10 years. And we're wondering why are asthmatics becoming in such younger and younger ages? Why is my infant that I'm laying on this mattress, why is why are they having these chronic lung conditions? Why are so many kids coming up with asthmas and allergens when there's nothing really attacking their respiratory system? And we realize that it's not the dose that determines the poison. It is the cumulative dose that determines the poison. The technology has existed for decades to filter these things out of the body and return a state of normalcy and optimization. One of the best ways that you can do it without spending a dime is to fast. There's no secret why every major religion in the world has fasted for centuries. Most of those religions, if you read about the history of fasting, believe that fasting brought them closer to God. The reason why it brought them closer to God was it it removed all of the toxicity and poison from their bodies, reset their immune system, allowed their lymphatic system to drain. We know from the big data from Blue Zone studies and all of the big data that if you're not sleeping, if you're not eating a whole food diet, and if you haven't made mobility non-negotiable, nothing else matters. Right. And people ask me all the time, where should I start my health journey? Should I get a red light pad? Should I get a sauna? Should I get a PMF mat? Should I get a cold plunge? And I go, until you've mastered those three things, nothing else matters. Like you shouldn't spend a dime with me until you're eating a whole food diet. Sleep is not bullied around in your schedule, it's actually scheduled, and that you've mastered mobility. If exercise is not non-negotiable, there's not a lot that we can do for you, right? I mean, if you can't sleep your way around a poor diet, you can't eat your way around not sleeping, and you can't sleep your way around either one, right? Not having either one. We know that the big data tells us that there's no continuity between diets in the in the populations of people living the longest. There's no evidence that dogmatic dieting extends life. None. Carnivore, keto, paleo, pescatarian, vegan, vegetarian, raw food, they do not extend life. What extends life is the absence of processed food, the absence of man-made chemicals, additives, preservatives, thickening agents that have been added to our food supply under the FDA's GRASS program, which is about to close. And we've allowed toxicity to creep in and become the villain. And we have blamed the human body for crimes it has not committed for centuries, for decades, anyway. And we realize now that the best thing that we can do is to restore to state of to restore a state of optimal health and really help people thrive is this practice of subtractive medicines. So if you've experienced blood clots from a procedure, can you still take HRT? Yes. HRT does not increase the risk of thrombolytic thrombocytopenia or what they call thrombotic events. If you actually go to American Journal of Urology space, put in the word testosterone, American Journal of Urology, testosterone, scroll down to section 13, read from 13 to 21, sections 13 to 21. There's a specific section on what's called thrombolytic events, which is clotting. Just to answer that question. So there, there, it's it's it's such an amazing time to be alive because big data and artificial intelligence is about to circumvent the entire modern medical system. No longer are we going to believe that elevated LDL cholesterol is correlated to cardiovascular disease. It's not. There's no correlation between high cholesterol and cardiovascular disease. In fact, there's a correlation between high cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, low triglycerides, and extended lifespans. My 22-year career did I ever process a death claim on a centenarian that did not have clinically elevated levels of LDL cholesterol at the time of their death. We also understand that the trillion-dollar industry that's built on GLP1s is to mimic our God-given response in our gut, which actually, which is where we produce GLP1s. We produce glucose-like polypeptide in our gut, and we produce GLP1s in response to nutrient density, not response to a chemical synthetic or pharmaceutical in response to nutrient density. The reason why you can eat four boxes of Oreos and you can't eat four avocados is because avocados are too nutrient dense. Oreos are specifically engineered to circumvent the GLP1 response. So we overeat and we become fat. We shouldn't be asking ourselves if we want to lose weight. We should be asking ourselves why are we fat? And so, you know, what's what's really astounding is I, you know, I'm I'm so encouraged that I'm so encouraged by where big data and early detection in modern medicine is proving the true life extension, true thr thriving states of being optimal are coming from restoring a state of of balance in our body. You know, we we we have we have 36,000 categories of disease in pathology. We don't have a single category for a state of optimal health, not one. We have no mechanism to evaluate a state of optimal health. We have 36,000 names for chronic diseases and pathologies. So we have lots of ways to tell you what's wrong, but very few ways to tell you what's right. And so this is uh, you know, in my opinion, you know, we are seeing a revolution. And I think, you know, sadly, and I hope you guys don't take this the wrong way. The pandemic, I think, did us all a favor, right? Did the entire world a favor, woke everybody up. We realized our governmental elites probably didn't have our best interests at heart. We we realized that, you know, innate immunity, herd immunity is it was the reason why we make it through nearly every pandemic, not because of a mass vaccination. We realized that every time we mess with Mother Nature, we tinker with messenger RNA and we tinker with Mother Nature, that we pay a consequence down the road. We just borrow from our future. And so what's happening now is we're realizing that the best state is a state where the human body is allowed to do what it does best on its own. Eliminate waste, repair, detoxify, and regenerate. You know, we know that sleep is important. Few people know why. You know, there's there's two phases of sleep that are critically important to every human being. One is called REM state. REM state is where we assemble memory. So if you're actually learning anything during my talk or the, you know, Ken's talk tonight, what will happen when you go into a REM state tonight is your prefrontal cortex and your hippocampus will marry for a few hours and that will become a learned memory. And so the reason why a lot of people don't feel like they can focus or concentrate or the short-term recall is off is not because their memory is fading. It's because their learned memory is not being assembled during REM sleep. And, you know, the reason why the vast majority of us will, you know, report, you know, brain fog or poor focus and concentration or lack of short-term recall is not because something's going wrong with our brain. It's because we're deficient in deep sleep. And what happens in deep phases of sleep is a very special system in your brain called the glimphatic system, which is like the lymphatic system that's in your body, eliminates waste from your brain. And by waste, I don't mean stolen urine. By waste, I mean cellular waste, histamine, cytokines, prostaclan AD2s, inflammatory compounds. We know now that Alzheimer disease is not random. It's not something that runs in families. Alzheimer's disease is type 3 diabetes. It's it's insulin resistance in the brain. And people that suffer from Alzheimer's, contrary to popular belief, are not losing their memory. They're losing access to their memory. And access can be restored. And so there are so many of these fallacies that we have just accepted. Nobody's questioned modern medicine. We've said, nope, the science is done, it's fixed, it's absolute. And to even ask the question means you're a pseudoscientist or a vaccine denier or you're you you have some other kind of agenda, you're not paying attention to to the science. But the very premise of science for you nerds on the call, and and I'm one too. Nerds, let's unite, fist bump to the nerds out there. The very yeah, Flint, love you, brother. Nerds unite. So the very premise of science is based on a question. The whole foundation of science is something called the scientific hypothesis, which is a question where you pose a question and you run a trial and you see what the outcome is. If science were ever to be fixed and absolute and irrefutable and unquestionable, we would still be doing frontal lobotomies. Right? That's an ice pick through the corner of the eye, scrambling the frontal over the brain because you have a mental illness. We would no OBGYN would wash their hands between delivering babies and we'd still be using leeches. Right? Science is never fixed. You know, it should always be questioned, right? And if until it consistently produces the identical result over and over and over again, we shouldn't question it. Gravity, maybe we shouldn't question that, right? Because there's no time that it acts differently. There are no exceptions to its rules. But in science, we we need to ask the questions. And the fact that people are standing up to ask the question doesn't make them pseudoscientists or vaccine deniers or anti-science. It actually makes them pro-science. Posing a question is the actual very foundation of science. And I think that we have brave men and women now that are actually questioning a lot of the science that the entire premise of our modern medical system is built upon. So it's a really, really exciting time to be alive. Some Britney said, I've questioned everything. Love you, Brittany. And, you know, I think, you know, what's what's really exciting is, and I'm going to talk about this at Create, is what are the things that we can do every day in our daily life, the little small marginal things, things like making self-care non-negotiable. You know, self-care is not selfish. Guys, the reason why 82% of all autoimmune disease is found in women is not because autoimmune disease is selective for females. It's not selective by sex, it's selective by weakness. Women have a tendency to develop something called caregiver syndrome, right? They're almost genetically programmed to this because they're meant to bear children. And women will very often put all of the needs of everybody else before the needs of themselves, their spouse, their career, their coworkers, their kids, their significant other, you know, their girlfriends. And what happens is they slowly start to put themselves in the backseat and then bang, they end up with a compromised immune system. And this is why the vast majority of autoimmune disease is found in women. As soon as we make self-care non-negotiable, this will go away, right? As soon as we accept the rule that self-care is not selfish, maybe the first 60 or 90 minutes of every day should belong only to you. And then you should give the rest of your day away, but you should have a time in your day where you're selfishly catering to yourself. We would see the whole foundational state of humanity shift, right? The state of health and humanity would entirely shift. So I'm really excited about the next five years in medicine. And a physiologist, I like some of these comments. You know, a marine biologist. Okay, thank you for for whoever corrected me there.

SPEAKER_00

Marine biologist.

GLP‑1s, Processed Foods, And Satiety

SPEAKER_02

Every marine biologist knows that. Clean the tank. You know, and you know, we do we we we accept this in in plant physiology too, and they're botanists and arborists. So if you have a leaf rotting in a palm tree and you call a true arborist, a true botanist out to your house to look at that leaf, they don't even touch the leaf. They core test the soil, right? And they say, you know what, there's no nitrogen in this soil. And they add nitrogen to the soil and the leaf would heal. And so we understand that the human body is no different. When you deprive human beings of certain raw material, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, nutrients, you get the expression of disease. You start to mess with mitochondrial respiration, the consequences are devastating. You fix mitochondrial respiration, the consequences are amazing, right? Every form of cancer, regardless of its form or origin, was at one time a healthy cell. It shifted its metabolism and became metabolically sick. That's what cancer is. It's a it's a shift in the cell's metabolism. It didn't happen to you, it happened within you. And so once we start to cater within to our cellular biology, stop bathing it in a toxic soup and expecting it to perform, feeding it the right minerals, vitamins, amino acids, raw materials, nutrients. Once we start taking care of our basal cellular biology, magic things happen. You want to see magic happen in human beings? You give their body the raw material it needs to do its job. Full stop. And so it's been a really exciting time for me because, you know, for nerds like me to be able to travel the world and meet with the greating, greatest minds and the real pioneers in longevity and anti-aging medicine and mitochondrial respiration and all of these fascinating areas of medicine, and see that some of the most groundbreaking technologies are some of the most simple solutions to human human civilization. And I think it's a great time for humanity. So I would love to open the floor to a couple of people.

SPEAKER_00

What's been in the past year for you? I know you did the blood, the blood that you did, I think in Mexico, where they took every literally everything. Yeah. What's been one or two of the things that you've seen or experienced this year that have that you because we've been talking for a while about you said 120, like in the next five years, it's 120 to 140 years old. What are some of the things you've seen in the last year, new things that may be around that you're seeing that that will cause that that age?

Rethinking Alzheimer’s And Sleep Physiology

Daily Self‑Care And Caregiver Syndrome

Breakthroughs: Blood Filtration And NK Cells

SPEAKER_02

I'll tell you the two most exciting things that I've seen that that absolutely mind-numbing. And I've done both all of these procedures myself. So is my wife and my and my family, for that matter. These are the advancements in blood filtration technology. And I'll just tell you some basic categories for this. Um there's one category of blood filtration. They're called either Lumati hemodetox or serif blood filtration. And what these filtration technologies do, there's one for biologics, and there's one for toxins. Biologics are those living things: fungicides, mold spores, mycotoxins, viruses, bacteria, and what we call circulating tumor cells, CTCs, which is cancer at stage zero. Now, again, don't be alarmed or take this the wrong way, but every single one of you on this call has had a circulating tumor cell in your bloodstream at some time in your life, lifespan. And what happened was your immune system spotted it. There was what we call a DNA mismatch. It spotted it, and it actually broke it into energy before it actually became a nodular tumor. And so now we can filter these biologics right out of the bloodstream. You can take someone with a herpes simplex viral pathogen, which is something you never cure. It's something you can manage, but you don't ever cure it. We thought there were no cures for these, and you can filter these out of the blood. You can filter Lyme disease out of the blood. Lyme is a really complicated one, right? Because Lyme is not just a viral infection, it's also a coinfection with bacteria and parasites. The bacterial and parasitic infections rarely get treated properly. Lyme is really sneaky, it has all kinds of ways to hide in the body. It's very hard to detect. It hides in the dorsal root ganglion and other places and sort of becomes positive and then negative and positive and then negative. So one is the capacity to filter biologics out of the bloodstream. You might have seen, I posted it on social media, it's public information. I went down with Steve Harvey, who at the time had a pretty significant diagnosis, I'll just put it that way, and which he no longer has. Could have been a life-threatening diagnosis. And that is now a permanent thing of his past. Dana White's story of his, not just Dana White, but his mother-in-law. If you've followed that story, also very much in the public domain, you know, Dana contacted me. It's been a little over two years now, February, around February 4th or 5th of 2023, almost in tears, because his mother-in-law, his wife's mother, who he's very, very close to, Roberta, had just been diagnosed with stage four metastatic colon cancer. So very bad diagnosis at that age. And she was almost 80 years old. Sloane Kettering wanted to do massive chemotherapy, radiation, massive surgical resection, full hysterectomy, lumpectomies in different areas of the body, lymphectomies in different lymph nodes. And I just convinced Dana that she would, she would never survive that. So what we did was we took the opposite approach. We filtered the toxicity out of her blood, and then we turned her immune system on the cancer through immunotherapy. And the immune system went after the cancer like the Gotti boys and ate it like termites everywhere in her body. Seven months later, to the day she was cancer free. And it's been two years since that diagnosis. Now, this is a woman that didn't lose any hair, didn't vomit, didn't get sick, wasn't emaciated, never was incapacitated or nauseous. We empowered her immune system through a DNA mismatch to go after the cancer, to identify it as a foreign body and manufacture antibodies to it. And this is the most amazing thing that we can harness the power of the God-given immune system to do things that modern medicine will never understand. And I could go down a whole, I could go down a whole rabbit hole of how the immune system can track things and mutations and viruses. You know, the enemy hiding behind a tree and changing its uniform and popping back out from behind the tree. That's a trick the immune system's been been dealing with for centuries. You know, the the you know, the vaccination can't. When when when a when a when the enemy switches uniforms, vaccines don't track it. When the enemy switches uniforms, the immune system still says, I know who's under that piece of cloth. You're still the enemy. You you you might be the wolf in sheep's clothing, but I still know who you are. And so it's it's it's a phenomenal time. The second category is filtration technologies for toxins. I took an entire credit card of microplastics out of my blood six weeks ago through a process called inuspheresis, enough to make an entire credit card in one filtration. At the same time, I removed all of the heavy metals. I removed the glyphosate, the periquat, insecticides, pesticides, herbicides, jet fuels, accelerants, what we call VOCs, volatile organic compounds that are coming from mattresses in our environment, and was able to see those levels pre and post go from toxicity levels down to zero. So though those are those are two of the most fascinating technologies. The other one is what's called the natural killer cell treatment. This is where you draw your blood, you spin it down, you isolate your own natural killer cells. This is the SEAL team six of the immune system, right? Immune system has lots of, you know, you've got white blood cells, you've got um uh natural killer cells, T cells, you have these different components of the immune system that have different roles. Some work on viruses, some work on parasites, some work on bacteria, some have memory, so they memory, memory who the enemy is. But you can actually take these cells out of your body, you can send them to a lab, you can expand them. You can pull 70 to 110 million of these cells out of your body, you can expand them to two and a half billion, and you can put two and a half billion of your own CL Team 6 natural killer cells back into your body and rewind your immune system 25 years, back to a state where it is spending the vast majority of its time policing you and not just protecting you. So I would say of all the technologies that I I know of, those those are the two most fascinating blood filtration and um and uh natural killer cell treatments in terms of advancements that I've seen. And again, these are things that are coming full circle, right? I mean, this is this is actually just restoring us to a state where we protect ourselves, not a state where we add things to our body. This is what's called subtractive medicine. You know, again, back to the clean the tank philosophy. Clean the environment first, then start to work on the ailment. Very often when you clean the environment, you you fix the ailment. I'm obviously still a fan of all the biohacking. You know, I love biohacking. I'm if you walk around my my unit, I've got hyperbarics and cold plunges and sauna and red light bed. And I would say the final was the the my own discovery of the effects of hydrogen in the human body. There will never be a day for the balance of my adult lifetime where I do not take hydrogen tablets in water because hydrogen is a selective antioxidant. And for those of you that are not aware of what that means, you can't overemphasize what that term means. So we know that we have oxidative stress in the body, all kinds of things that are what we call free radicals, right? These free radicals damage our cells, they cause oxidative stress, they oxidize our membranes, they cause cholesterol to stick to our arterial walls, atherosclerosis, arteriosclerosis. A lot of these pathologies that happen in our body come from free radical oxidation. The problem is you don't want to oversuppress free radicals. Nearly every free radical, with the exception of the hydroxyl free radical, has a known benefit in the body. An oxygen singlet, single oxygen molecule, single oxygen molecule. It can be one of the most beneficial things for your mitochondria, it can be one of the most damaging things for your cell membrane. Superoxide, absolutely necessary to human function until there's too much. Hydrogen peroxide, absolutely necessary to cellular survival until there's too much. So when we take too many antioxidants, we can become metabolically sick. Hydrogen is the only antioxidant that we know of that restores balance and then stops. It restores something called redox homeostasis. And before I was a huge fan of these hydrogen water bottles, they were too expensive. I got a lot of flack from my audience because they were 275 bucks. Then I found elemental magnesium tablets that can efferves into hydrogen gas. They're called H2 Tab. Full disclosure, I own a piece of that company. And I went to the founder and I was like, we need to commercialize this, and it needs to be inexpensive. So for about a less than a dollar a day, you can take an elemental magnesium tablet, drop it into water, it will effervesce into hydrogen gas. You can put this the smallest, lightest element, the most prevalent element in the universe into your body. By the way, 10% of your body weight is hydrogen. 10% of your body weight is hydrogen. Hydrogen is harmless to human beings. And you can suppress this oxidation right back to balance. In fact, if it needs to, it will raise oxidative stress back to balance. Without certain forms of oxidation and without certain forms of inflammation, you would never heal. If you went to the gym and did a big squat workout and damaged a bunch of, tore a bunch of muscle, you wouldn't heal without the inflammatory response. If you twisted your ankle, your ligament would never heal if you didn't have an inflammatory response. Not all inflammation, not all oxidation is bad. Too much of it is bad. Too little of it is also bad. So redox homeostasis is a perfect balance. So between blood filtration, natural killer cells, hydrogen water, which I think every human being should be, should be on. It used to be a lot more prevalent, not just in our air, but in our our water. We used to drink a lot of water from moving streams, things like that. We used to drink a lot of what we call living water. And these things restore just an amazing state of uh scary question.

SPEAKER_00

They've got can kids take the tablets?

SPEAKER_02

Yes, children can take the tablets. One a day. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_00

A couple more things. Is it better for your body to be in an alkaline state for overall health? Talk a little bit about that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so when we say an alkaline state, this is a very, very, very small margin. The pH range of the blood is less than half a point, right? So what happens is metabolic alkalosis, too much alkalinity, is just as bad as metabolic acidosis, too much acidity. Now, yes, disease states are usually towards the lower pH range of the blood. Alkaline states is what's considered a disease-free state or a very inhospitable state for disease. Cancer has a very, very difficult time surviving in a slightly alkaline environment. But if your blood pH got to pH 9, you would die, right? So what happens is your body has all kinds of mechanisms to buffer this. So sadly, alkaline water, probably one of the biggest marketing myths ever sold to the public, will not make your blood alkaline. So drinking alkaline water does not change the pH of the blood. In fact, your kidneys and your bones will buffer that if it starts to get too alkaline. So eating an alkaline diet, foods that do not decrease acidity, meaning make acid more concentrated in the blood, staying adequately hydrated, hydrogen um water, these are all ways to make sure that you are at the higher end of the alkaline range for What are some of those foods, Gary? What do you recommend? So these are, again, this gets back to whole foods, right? Because, and it also gets back, you know, sadly, to alcohol. It's it's not the alcohol, it's what the alcohol becomes. So alcohol is metabolized into something called acetylaldehyde. Acetyl aldehyde drops the pH of the blood. It's very acidic. So the the byproduct of alcohol processing is is a highly Acidic compound called acetylaldehyde. So it gives you headaches, dehydrates you because the body is trying to use minerals and B vitamins to dilute the acidic state. And so, you know, by reducing or eliminating alcohol, you will you will buffer the pH of the blood. And that's really good. And eating whole foods. I can't emphasize this enough. A diet absent processed foods. When your body doesn't have enzymes and waste elimination pathways to get rid of certain chemicals, synthetics, thickening agents, what happens is a slight inflammatory response. When you have this inflammatory response, you are lowering the pH range of the blood. The body's trying to totally trying to buffer it into the more alkaline range. So what are some of those foods? Meat, fish, chicken. Yes, you can eat meat. It's not going to kill you. Saturated fat's not the enemy. We got to stop blaming the butter for what the bread did. And, you know, we, if you, if you call it that, you know, we blame the butter for what the bread does. It's not the butter, it's the bread. And, you know, a lot of, again, a lot of what we've done to our bodies comes from the way that our modern agriculture is produced. Very often it's not the plant or the or the meat or the fish or the chicken, it's the distance from there to the table, right? It's how we process these foods. This is what happens with seed oils. So for example, it's it's not necessarily the rapeseed or the canola plant that's harming you. But if you take a canola plant and you put it in a commercial press and it comes out gummy, and then you deum it with hexane, which is a powerful neurotoxin, and then you take that neurotoxic degumed oil and you heat it to 405 degrees and you turn it rancid. So now it's putrefied and it stinks. And then you deodorize it with sodium hydroxide, which is a powerful carcinogen. Now you've used a neurotoxin and a carcinogen. And then before you put it on the shelf, you bleach it before you bottle it and put it on the shelf. Now you have a toxic soup. And then the American Heart Association will do you the favor of coming by and putting a heart healthy label on there, just so that you can see a nice little red heart-healthy thumbs up when you pull that vegetable oil off the shelf. You ever walk down the grocery aisle and wonder why all the bottles of Wesson oil are exactly the same beautiful color? Do you think that's how it occurred in nature? Do you think when they pressed hundreds of millions of those plants that it all just came out perfectly yellow, clear and bright and beautiful? No, those were those were bleached and oxidized into that state. And so, again, you know, the eating it, eating, I can't emphasize enough, eating a whole food diet. This restores the normal GLP1 response, right? Try to sit down and eat your way through four or five avocados, right? You'll understand how powerful GLP1 is in your body, right? And eventually it will turn the gag reflex on. You'll actually vomit on avocado five. We should have an avocado challenge just to prove it. Um line up 12 avocados until somebody pukes.

SPEAKER_00

If we get all the people on here that don't believe it, they'll be the ones eating the avocados. Couple more questions for you, bro. Um, what's the best way to regulate blood pressure and the best way to deal with inflammation in your body?

Hydrogen, Redox Balance, And Kids

SPEAKER_02

Okay, so three three best ways to regulate blood pressure. One is movement, right? So walking is probably the most underrated exercise on the planet. Walking is specifically designed to move lymphatic fluid, right? The lymphatic system that eliminates waste from the body is a static system. There's no pressure behind that, not like arteries and veins. There's actually no pressure behind the vast majority of your arteries and your veins either. Most people think the heart circulates all the blood in the body. It doesn't. This heart only circulates 30% of the blood in your body. Yes, your heart is only responsible for 30% of your circulation. None of us has a left ventricle that is strong enough with one contraction to push blood 63,000 miles. You have 63,000 miles of blood vessel in your body. The vast majority of your blood vessels, 70% to be precise, are venules and capillaries. There's no pressure in those veins. What happens, or those capillaries? So what happens in these venules and capillaries is the blood is moved by an activity called vasomotor. So I want you to think of a snake swallowing a mouse. This is a muscular transaction, right? So three best ways to handle blood pressure. One is walking, two is staying adequately hydrated with mineral salt. I would add something called Baja, D-A-J-A, Gold, mineral salt, to your drinking water. And the third is to check something called homocysteine. Homocysteine. Homocysteine is an amino acid that is in everybody's blood that's listening to this right now. Every one of you has homocysteine. There's a genetic variant that compromises your ability to break down homocysteine. Homocysteine, as it is cruising by the inside lining of your arteries, it irritates your artery. If you irritate an artery, it will clamp down. And if you make the pipes smaller in a fixed system, the pressure goes up. Then what's going to happen is you're going to go to the doctor, they're going to check your blood pressure, it's going to be very high. And they're going to do a bunch of cardiac workout. They're going to do an EKG, it's normal. EEG, it's normal. Stress test, normal. Cart sounds, normal. Lung sounds, normal. Cardiac cath, normal. Dye contrast study, totally normal. Nothing's wrong with the heart. So you know what they're going to do? Medicate the heart anyway. They're going to hold the heart responsible for a crime it's not committing. If you make the pipes smaller in a fixed system, pressure goes up. If I wanted to raise the blood pressure of anybody on this call right now and just put compression stockings on your legs, your blood pressure would skyrocket. Nothing wrong with your heart. So by lowering your homocysteine, you can cause the vascular system to relax and pressure to return to normal. You can do this by taking an amino acid called TMG, trimethylglycine. You can get it. GNC, a thousand milligrams a day.

SPEAKER_00

Love that. Hey, Gary, let me do this. I know you've got a couple minutes and you've got to run. Um, I want to pull up Andalina. Andalina, will you? I sent this, I sent her stuff to you the other day. This is Dr. Bobby Grossi, our dentist buddy of Michigan. This is his daughter. Gary, she just published Andalina. Oh hi guys. She just published her first book, by the way, Gary. She's gonna be doing a book signing at Create.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, I'll I will I'll love to get one of your books.

SPEAKER_01

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

SPEAKER_02

Congratulations. Great for you, man. That is awesome. Growing with growing.

SPEAKER_00

Gary, I sent you this. I sent you this doc the other day. But Angelina, would you walk him through some of the things that you're that you're facing right now? And I'd love for Gary to be able to speak into this for you. Sure.

SPEAKER_01

Um, yeah. So basically, long story very short. The last three years, I've been like really battle battling like different hormone levels, and my cortisol has been like extremely high, and they've misdiagnosed me with like four autoimmune diseases. And then my dad like ended up paying like this year for like a pre-nuve body scan to figure out what was wrong because doctors were like kind of like putting bullet like band-aids over bullet holes because they just could not figure out what was wrong with me. And they the most recent thing was they gave me like a diagnosis with lupus, but my symptoms have been like brain fog, fatigue, weight gain when like I'm very active and I eat super healthy, like all that fun stuff.

Alkalinity, Alcohol, And Whole Foods

SPEAKER_02

But yeah, so so if we start to unpack that, first of all, the chances of you having an autoimmune disease at your age, if you're even remotely active and eating relatively clean, are very minimal. The chances of your immune system lighting up to an external toxin that your body can't eliminate are very high. I would actually do something called a vibrant wellness, vibrant wellness, total toxicity test. Also, since your dad is a dentist, you should also, if you if you have you know root canals, fillings, anything, I would have a cone beam x-ray and see if you've got any cavitations. I'm a big believer that toxicity in the mouth can lead to other organ systems in the body, you know, one of one of which is is uh leftover root canals. You know, dentistry is one of the few areas of medicine that believes that you can leave dead tissue in the body. And I mean, no, I mean we're not gonna be able to do it. Good, no, I'm not attacking you. Yeah, please. By the way, she has no feelings, which is good. Okay, great. So that's probably not the cost. And so what this what this total toxicity test will do is it will look at several different toxins, mold, mycotoxins, other heavy metals, because what lights the immune system up and really pisses the immune system off for lack of better words, are these these different toxins that it does not have waste elimination pathways to get rid of. And it will very often begin to manufacture antibodies. And if you started with something called a speckled ANA titer, if any time in your history you had something called a speckled ANA titer, which is a speckled antinuclear antibody titer where the immune system is manufacturing antibodies to the nucleus of the cell, this is the genesis, the early stages of an autoimmune disease. What it shows is the immune system is upset and it's confused and it is randomly, it's like a drunk guy just running around punching random people, right? And it's punching random people. So it's actually, you know, mildly attacking. I just use these analogies so you can kind of under understand. So forgive me, I usually talk to adults. So maybe, maybe the drunk guy punching random people is not the best one.

SPEAKER_00

But she went to Michigan State. We're good. Oh, you went to Michigan State. Okay, good. All right.

Safe Oils, Seed Oil Processing, And GLP‑1

SPEAKER_02

So you you you probably even heard NIF bomb in your career. So, you know, what happens when the immune system reaches this state of confusion is before it hones in on autoimmune disease and decides what cell it's going to lock in on or what tissue it's going to lock in on, it sort of has this random pattern. I bet if you actually look back in your blood work, you're going to see a high ANA titer. Okay. This is this is the the the infection, the toxicity reaching a level that it now the immune system is paying attention to. And so this vibrant wellness test, and it's a it's a urine test, is going to tell you everything that your body's excreting. And what it will do is it'll show you all the metabolites of these things that are coming out in your urine, and it will identify the source of those in the body. Once you have that source, we can go about eliminating it. And a lot of these elimination mechanisms are much easier to deal with than you think. You may or may not need full-blown blood filtration, but we'll use things like gut binders, regular sauna sessions, strengthening your detoxification pathways, your natural pathways with things like glutathione. And so once we have a picture of what's in your system, then we can start to go after the real villain. I promise you, the villain is not the immune system. The villain is whatever the immune system is after. And we have to find out what called the immune system. The immune system is like a fireman, it doesn't show up for no reason. Something calls it to that site, right? If you could sit in your home for 15 years and the firemen would never show up, if there's a kitchen fire, they're going to show up. Why? Because somebody called them to the site of inflammation. So that's how the immune system responds. So the thought that if we had fewer firemen, we'd have less fires is absurd. But that's the modern medical consensus is that if we had less firemen, we'd have less fires. So in other words, if we would just regulate, if we would just suppress the immune system, we'd have less issues. Immune systems made the mistake. Firemen did not make the mistake. They came for we have to figure out what was the cause of that fire. So what called the immune system? And and I will tell you this is the five five big ones right here mold, mycotoxin, parasite, virus, heavy metal. If you just eliminated those, right? If you found and eliminated those, you'd wipe out the vast majority of autoimmune disease. And I have a very, very, very difficult time believing that your immune system at your age has gone haywire for no reason. I believe that your immune system has arrived to the site of an inflammatory process because of a toxin. We just need to figure out what it is. And and this is what's really exciting about what I was just talking about. So a vibrant wellness total toxicity test, I would do that and I would do an ALCAT, A-L-C-A-T. It's it's a test that actually tells you what true sensitivities and allergies you have. And the reason why it's it's a true test is because it subtracts your baseline level of inflammation. Most allergy testing is very 1998 science. It doesn't tell you what your current state of inflammation is. So, in other words, if you're walking around at a six, you're gonna be allergic to everything because even things that show up as a two will pop as an eight on that test. Does that make sense? So those are the two tests that I do. And I I can almost assure you by the time I get to create, we'll have the source of this and I'll and I'll help you put a pro, we'll promise you, no charge. I will help you put a protocol together to to walk your way out of that. So how do you get this question? Pardon? How do you how does she get access to these tests to do it? Vibrant Wellness, you can order it if you're a dentist. And Alcat test, you don't need a script for it. Okay, thank you so much. You're super welcome.

SPEAKER_00

Gary, last last question, because I because I know you got to run. This has something to do with this has something to do with what we just talked about with Andalina. What the blood, the blood thing that you just did, is that something that would be beneficial to her?

SPEAKER_02

Does she need to wait until she gets the if this if this is if this is a an or an organic toxin, like a what we call a biologic? So if it's mold, mycotoxin, virus, fungicoid, if it's if it's a non-inorganic toxin, like you know, one of those, like a virus, those can be filtered out of the blood. If it's an organic toxin, there are things like therapeutic plasma exchange, TPE, and in-use phuresis, I-N-U-S phyesis, that will take metals, uh, microplastics, glyphosate, paracat, secticides, herbicides, pesticides, all of these other toxins and filter those out of the blood and return the plasma in the blood to the body. Those are game changers.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, the therapeutic plasma exchange we do down at RMI in Costa Rica. It's a you want to run through a wall.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, somebody's asking about my mild cognitive impairment for early Alzheimer's. The best thing you can do for an early Alzheimer's patient is get them off their statin and and control their blood sugar. 10-week keto reset. You want to you want to lower their glycemic profile as much as possible. You want their hemoglobin A1C, the three-month average of their blood sugar, to be below 5.2. Below 5.2. I can assure you, whoever asked that question, Dr. Dr. Lee Holcomb. Dr. Holcomb, I can assure you that whoever this person is you're referring to has had a minimum of 10 years of elevated blood sugar prior to this early onset diagnosis. If you look up Alzheimer's as type 3 diabetes, this is insulin resistance in the brain. Neurofibulary tangles and amyloid plaques are the byproducts of this process. They're not the cause of the process, they're what's impairing the connection between the regions of the brain that lead us to believe the memory is being lost. Memory's not being lost, it's not being connected to. And so, yeah, statins, yeah. Keto and keto and GLP ones are great for that.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Super.

SPEAKER_00

Dude, what would you say to everybody that's here that doesn't that hasn't been to create before? Give me, give me a 90-second create overview since you've been to just about every one we've done for five years.

Blood Pressure, Movement, And Homocysteine

SPEAKER_02

Well, here's here's what I here's what I see about create is that's different than most of the conferences I I go to is the intentionality and the authenticity of the people that are there. You know, most people show up to these conferences to reach a big audience and sell a big audience something because they figure if you put somebody else, you know, if you if you got 1,500 people or 3,000 people in a room, I might as well show up and try to hawk my book or my course or my you know my supplement. I find that the authenticity and the intentionality of the people that Ken puts in front of you are much different. Like, you know, this conference isn't moving the needle for me financially, it's moving the needle for me ethically, morally. You know, my my calling from God is to get this information to the masses. So I will, as often as I can, take stages with large groups of people because I believe this information doesn't belong to me. I believe it belongs to humanity. I'm just blessed enough to have it flow through me. You know, two years ago when I started the Ultimate Human Platform, I started it with only one objective, and that was just to give without the expectation of receipt. I'm not paid to be here tonight. So I I wanted to, I wanted this information to reach the masses. And as a result of that, you know, God's been very, very good to me and to my family. So I know that my passion and my purpose have finally aligned with God's purpose. And I feel like that's that's a thread that runs through everyone that I've seen there. And you know what's what's amazing too is I I've been impacted by this because I've heard this speech so many times. It was actually the third time that I heard it that I really internalized it. And and it was John Maxwell's talk about living a life of service, not a life of significance. And for the vast majority of my adult lifetime, I was desperately trying to live a life of significance. I wanted to be somebody, I wanted to make some money, I wanted to, you know, have nice houses, have nice cars. And but the third time that I heard John Maxwell's speech on living a life of service and not a life of significance, the legacy component really connected for me. That's why I give so much time to Maha. I get absolutely shredded in the media for trying to make America healthy again. I don't know what's I don't know what's controversial about getting toxicity out of our food supply or toxins off of our, you know, out of our farming practices or getting physical education back into the public school system. But for some reason it's become a political hot potato and people attack me for it. And but but I but I I I've got I feel like the the people that Ken has curated really intentionally trying to live a life of service.
