The Leptin Prescription Dr. Jack Kruse: "The key is, you have to see the light in the morning. Because what does the light do? It turns on the timing mechanism in your eye. […] The better your clock works in your body, the more you lose weight. Okay? "It turns out the molecular clock, where is it in humans? Suprachiasmatic nucleus in your eye. Okay? And that eye hooks your retina to your hypothalamus. Guess where that is? Leptin! So what's that pathway? It's called the leptin-melanocortin pathway of the central retinal pathways. "It means light through your eye every morning is more important than the food you eat! Why? Because that is the key to the periodicity of the clock timing mechanism. In other words, when you break your fast, light is always recalibrating the clock in your body. What does the clock in your eye control? It controls leptin and controls melatonin. "What is melatonin important for? Guess what controls autophagy and apoptosis? Melatonin biology. Why? Because it's tied to cortisol. Cortisol and melatonin are the hormonal axis that actually control this. But what controls both of them? Sunlight! We're back to photosynthesis again. […] "So the leptin prescription tells you every morning, not behind a window, not behind any glass, no contacts on, no glasses, you go out and look in the direction of the sun. "So what was the things I used to tell people on older podcasts? I want you to make like the Sphinx. Put your feet, your hands on the ground and look to the east every morning, just like the Sphinx, and within 30 minutes, then you can go eat your breakfast. "And how you should eat the breakfast obviously is tied to the circadian biology of photosynthesis based where you live. So you in Colorado would be different than me because I'm at the 28th latitude. Now people who live in the zero latitude or inside the tropics, believe it or not, I'm okay with them eating some more carbohydrates than me or you. "Why? Because it always grows there, it's not going to cause them a problem. But this assumes, a big assumption, is that they're going out and getting their skin and eyes in the game. Because if they don't, guess what? You ruin the clock mechanism. And that clock mechanism is the key to fixing your engines. Okay? That is the key." Dr. Jack Kruse with Dr. Brandy Victory @ 38:47–41:27

Dr. Jack Kruse: "Deuterium affects the inner mitochondria and it turns the Krebs cycle, the TCA cycle that you learned about. […] This is a cycle that goes around, and basically it shows how carbon moves. But really what it's doing it's a cycle, and it's anabolic and catabolic. It can spin both ways. "Turns out what happens with disease when you inject too much deuterium into the system and it breaks. Because this cycle happens inside the mitochondrial matrix. This is inside that membrane that you've been talking about, where the electron chain transport is. It breaks down. Then it becomes a linear system. In other words, you're going back to a time in evolution where the TCA cycle didn't work. "Here's the very interesting thing about the TCA cycle that your boys in the carnivore world don't know about. If you eat carnivore, you eat nothing but fat and protein, if you don't see the sunrise, do you know that you can't use a TCA cycle? Did you know that?" Robert Breedlove: "No." Dr. Jack Kruse: "Shocking right? But guess what? Don't you think before anybody goes carnivore they should be told that by a fucking centralized doctor or a decentralized doctor?" Dr. Jack Kruse with Robert Breedlove @ 03:33:58–03:35:23

David Rasnick, PhD: "Side effect is a euphemism for undesired direct effects. "The effects of the anti-HIV drugs are quite serious. In fact, if you look at the inserts that comes with these drugs, you'll see virtually all of them will have a black box warning label, which is the highest, the most severe warning that these drugs can have, and still be prescribable to human beings before they're taken off the market. They're lethal." @ 06:39–07:07

Ryan Brown: "when you're dealing with someone that's really sick, that's really depleted, they've dehydrated themselves so much over a long periods of time, they've damaged their collagen […] with glyphosate […] how does somebody begin to catch up and then sort of undump this bucket that is constantly overflowing? […]" Carrie Bennett: "It's a great question. I like the phrase in quantum biology and quantum health, 'redox before you detox,' meaning build up your charge, and that charge is this exclusion zone water. "So what are the things that are fundamental. I think are going outside and touching the earth if you can with bare feet, bare hands, bare skin, especially in the morning, because that supports circadian signaling. That just basically optimizes timing in the body, and every cell runs on timing. So if we can get outside first thing in the morning, that's great. "Then we have to really be aware of all the things that you alluded to that destroy and deplete this water inside of us […] Minimize your exposure to wearable technology. Block and mitigate the artificial light. "You're going to at least give your body a good chance at that point, so that when you do things like full-body sun exposure, extended earthing, red light therapy, sauna, then you're allowing your body to essentially build up adequate redox, or adequate charge, to detoxify. "Because as you asked earlier Tristan, it's called the exclusion zone, because the only things that can legitimately penetrate into it are electrons, photons, and phonons. It's an antenna. It can attract information frequency from the environment. But physically, toxins should not be able to penetrate through it. It can't. "And so someone who has intracellular toxicity, to me it's a big indication that they've not maintained adequate exclusion zone water. Instead, they've got more of this bulk water, this water that doesn't have any structure to it, and the toxins are able to lodge themselves intracellularly. What does that do? It makes the mitochondria dysfunctional, and so the mitochondria then can't make water as well. "So it really comes down to setting the key redox strategies, and then maybe something like a sauna, a red light therapy panel, will then be able to push you past that boundary where you feel like you've been stuck. But a lot of us are just kind of spinning our wheels just in [traces a circle], because we think maybe 20 minutes of earthing is enough every day, when we were designed to be connected 24/7." Carrie Bennett with Ryan Brown and Tristan Scott on Decentralized Radio 18:15–23:35

Dr. Jack Kruse: "The people in Europe, where you live, that live the longest are the people in Iceland. They live on a volcano. In other words, they're constantly creating deuterium-depleted water. They're getting huge magnetic flux. They have shitty light, but most of them embrace the cold. "Longevity isn't just a story of light. What I'm trying to tell you it's a story of who maximizes light, water, and magnetism. And the people on the African continent have not done that, because that society is holding them back. They have all the thermodynamic givens they need, but they don't use them properly. "And I would submit to you the same thing is true in Europe, and the same thing is true in the United States. The reason why we have certain chronic disease in the United States, and we don't have them in Europe, is for exactly the same choices that we've made. "In many, many ways the United States has renovated the suite on the Titanic that's sinking, and they don't realize it. The same thing is true with EHS [electromagnetic hypersensitivity] in Europe. That's the reason why EHS is more common in Europe; it has to do with the oscillation of the power grid." Dr.Jack Kruse with Jones Hussain @ 01:00:43–01:01:49

Disease Caused by Losing Your Tan Inside Dr. Jack Kruse: "There's a hierarchy in life about how we use things and the type of biology that we use. There are certain people, like for example, people who have tightly coupled haplotypes, they do much better by eating carbohydrates closer to the equator. Hopefully you're beginning to understand now why they can live glycolysis. "Then it turns out people that have uncoupled haplotypes that further away, these people do much better with beta oxidation. But it turns out for beta oxidation to work, you have to see the sunrise. Otherwise it's not effective. "Then you begin to go, when you really begin to parse this out, you begin to see how the dissipative structure works at different latitudes and longitudes, but also within species. You begin to see why certain species have different adaptations than others, because of actually how they live their life. "You begin to realize the story with melanin, not only have I told people in the Patreon blogs, and on the Huberman podcast, and actually you, that does melanin absorb all aspects of the electromagnetic spectrum? Guess guess what else it does. It absorbs all magnetochemical inputs. "In other words, ROS can be mitigated by melanin. This should really open your eyes. Basically what you're saying is that melanin, especially endogenous melanin, acts as a buffer, a capacitor. It allows you to make light inside in ways that you never thought about. "All of a sudden, the ideas that I introduced to the world last year, they're not as crazy as you thought. You'll read the papers about you know proteins that are made from mitochondrial metabolism, like melanogenin that actually tan your insides. When you lose that tan, the most common disease people know about is Parkinson. They don't realize though Alzheimer's is the same thing. It's just a different part of your brain. Multiple sclerosis: different part of the brain. "When you begin to see things like this, that's where you sit down and go Prigogine and Arrhenius were really, really, really smart. Because they were telling us timing controls where the flow of energy in matter is. That is the key to understanding quantum thermodynamics. "That's the part that Ling didn't get. That's the part that Peat never got. That's the part that the food gurus never got. Because they never took it to the physics level that they need to take it. "It turns out timing is more important than anything else in life, because time is actually how energy flows. And these are the base ideas that are in Einstein's relativity. These ideas are absolutely devoid in the Newtonian world. "But remember it doesn't mean that they're not useful. We use Newtonian physics to get to the moon. But the problem is Newtonian physics couldn't explain the perihelion of Mercury. Well Einstein could. "And it turns out that mammals happen to be an animal on this planet that actually needs to use time relativity to really understand how food and light work in us. And to truly understand where I'm headed, and where none of your other interviewees are headed, this topic, this is the topic that I am most fascinated by: timing and quantum thermodynamics. Prigogine's ideas, Arrhenius's ideas. The fourth law of thermodynamics. That timing controls the flow of energy and matter. Bro, this is what it's all about. This is what we need people to focus in on. Then I think we can move the needle for like chronic diseases today that we're impotent to do anything with in centralized medicine." Dr. Jack Kruse with Cameron Borg @ 45:04–49:25

Crohn's and IBD: You Got to Have Skin in the Game Dr. Jack Kruse: "People that have this condition, these two conditions [Crohn's and IBD] in the gut, it's massively important for them to understand this deuterium story. And I'll explain it to you further. "The ATPase, we now know from a quantum biologic perspective, it's been checked in the literature multiple times. It's 100% quantum nanorotor engine. The Fo head on it spins at unbelievable rates through protons. And guess what makes it 100% thermally efficient? This is gonna blow your mind. "Red light. Do you know why it works on red light? The dominant portion of sunlight is 42% infrared A. That's what makes your mitochondria spin optimally. Okay? "What happens if you have clothes on? Does your gut get that information? Because here's what most of your doctors listening to this and the patients that have these conditions don't know: red light is the only part of the spectrum of light that penetrates to touch every single mitochondria in your body. It penetrates the body anywhere between 10 cm and 30 cm. "So you are designed by nature to be naked in sunlight all the time. When I say this to patients they look at me like I'm crazy, and then I say this to 'em: 'Tell me one other mammal that emerges from the mother's vagina that's wearing the clothes that you're wearing or the sunglasses you're wearing right now.' "And they look at me stunned. I said, 'See, this is the reason why Jack doesn't have to teach hippos and lions quantum biology, but he has to teach stupid humans this, because they have this brain that allows them to break all of nature's laws, because society and culture have put these wonderful ideas in their head that have broken some of the fundamental laws that we operate with.' "When you start to see it from this perspective you go, 'Well man, wait a minute Jack, you're saying that if we don't get this red light, the ATPase can't spin as fast?' Yeah. Guess what happens? You have to eat different types of food to offset the energy costs, otherwise your brain won't work well. "That's the reason why most people have Crohn's and IBD have horrible cognitive abilities that go with it. They don't think as well as they used to. This is the reason why it happens, because their ATPase can't spin as fast. "How do you fix that? Put them in sunlight or put them in red light and watch them get better. […] "I always tell people, if you want to get better when you have these two conditions, you got to have skin in the game. "My take-home for anybody who's got even one these conditions: make like the Sphinx. Every morning when the sun rises, look with your eyes and your skin, with all four of extremities grounded, with your gut exposed to the sun. If you do that for two hours every morning and you do a little bit, especially this time of year, so it's right around the summer solstice, from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m., you will freaking win. In fact, all those damn drugs that the gastroenterologist put you on, you'll start to see you need less and less and less of it. And if you're really smart, if you live at high latitude you'll get your ass down where the diurnal frequencies don't change and there's red light constantly present from sunup to sundown. That's the key. That's the reason why I told you before, if I had these diseases I would have my ass down inside the 20s." Dr. Jack Kruse with Dr. Samir Kakodkar @ 39:55%%43:33

Decentralize Health, Decentralize Wealth Dr. Jack Kruse: "If you have billions of dollars in bitcoin, what is it if you're dead at 40 years old or 50 years old? You basically have the legacy of Steve Jobs, and that's really not sovereignty. "Bitcoin is time. People don't realize that. Bitcoin is not the most valuable asset we all own; it's actually time. When you think about it, time is manufactured in cells by the circadian mechanism. That also is a metronome, a timekeeper. So that's the link between bitcoin and biology. The case that I tried to make on Clubhouse. the case that I try to make on podcast, when we talk about this topic, because I really don't get the opportunity to talk about this topic very often, is that the link between health and wealth is substantial. "But even the social link, the link that I'm trying to make with you now, is that I don't want to see bitcoiners. . . like I don't want to see your daughter get all your bitcoin. I want you to be here when you're an old man. I'd like you to fall off your roof at 90 years old because you're fixing it, break your hip and die that way, instead of you know succumbing to obesity, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, metabolic diseases, things like that, or cancer. "And I think when people get that idea, then they begin to understand maybe I'm not thinking about decentralization enough. Maybe I need to decentralize my life a little bit more." Dr. Jack Kruse with Daniel Prince 12:29–13:55

Irene Lyon: "Tell everyone where you started in this journey of helping people. And we have a very similar story, so I can't wait to have you share it." Carrie Bennett: "I started off as just a science nerd, right in high school. I wanted to take every science class possible. I just loved it. That led me to college. I chose a small liberal arts college where I could play sports. I was a college athlete and they had a really good science program. "I remember being close to graduation, and going into my volleyball coach's office and saying [in a tearful voice], "I don't want to be a doctor. I don't wanna go to these PhD programs." It just didn't feel right. As much as I loved studying pre-med and studying microbiology and things like that, that wasn't the path that I just felt was right for me. "I don't know what drew me to this but I said, 'Okay, mom and dad, I think I'm gonna go to massage therapy school.' And they were like, "?????" "But they were so cool, because they were like, 'Okay, that's great. Follow what you feel you need to do. By the way, get a job, put yourself through massage therapy school. We'll support you as as best as we can emotionally.' That's completely fair. "Having been a college athlete, what I knew was training my body. So I became a personal trainer, pilates instructor, like all of those really cool things you know: balance training, kickboxing. I really got into that the early 2000s fitness scene. And in this town that I live in called Kalamazoo I opened up the first little personal training studio. It was great. I was going through massage therapy school, and I was training people. "And I thought at the time the end-all be-all was exercise. I was always thinking like, 'What was the foundation of health? It was exercise. Right? You gotta lift like this, you gotta sprint like this, you gotta stretch like this, your core work has to look like this.' "And massage therapy really changed that, shifted things a little. It was like, 'Oh, there's this whole other side to the body. There's stress that's stored in tissue. There's trauma that's stored in tissue. There's energy flow that can be released and felt.' "So I lived a happy little life going back and forth between teaching and helping people with massage, helping people with personal training. My clients were happy and they were content. "But I still wasn't at that foundational level. My curious science brain was like, There's more, you know.' "Fast forward to when I had my first child 10 years ago. His sleep was horrible. My sleep was horrible. I mean, beyond newborn horrible. My digestion was a disaster. I got joint pain. I had just like stretched out joints. Everything about me felt grimy. "For a long time it was, 'Oh, this is what new moms are supposed to feel like. Right? This is what we're supposed to feel like.' Then there came that point where I was like, 'Wait, this can't be right.' So I nerded it up and went back to get my masters in in clinical nutrition. "It's like, 'Okay, nutrition! It's the foundation! I'm gonna do elimination diets and get rid of gluten!' And you know, it was great. It helped too. But I still wasn't feeling amazing. "That's when I stumbled upon the work of Dr. Kruse. If anyone's familiar with his work, if you open up one of his blogs, it takes 17 hours to read, and that's just to read all the words, not necessarily to understand anything. So I kind of got to this point where I was just like, 'Well, I think that this guy kind of knows what he's talking about.' "And I started to apply some of the things, the sunlight, the circadian rhythm, and I was like, 'Okay, now my nerd brain needs to know absolutely everything there is to know about this field that we call quantum biology.' So approximately seven years ago I dove into it and I have not left. I love everything about it, and I'm excited to share anything that people are willing to hear when it comes to taking care of their body at that quantum level." Carrie Bennett with Irene Lyon @ 06:45–11:04

Irene Lyon: "A lot of people are hearing blue light's bad, blue light's bad. But that is from the artificial screens that are human-made (man-made, woman-made), that are artificial. But that natural blue light from the sun in the morning, the sunlight, that is of the healthy kind. Correct? Carrie Bennett: "Correct. Absolutely. So this blue light from the sun tells time in our brain. It's really the color, the wavelength of light that keeps time, because it predictably varies from like nothing at sunrise to increasing intensity till the sun reaches its high point, and decreasing in its intensity until after sunset. "So that's why when we stare at a screen where the color, the amount of blue is never changing, it's confusing. It's confusing to our circadian rhythm. "And then imagine at night when we're staring at a screen with this artificial blue light, when at night there should be zero blue light in our environment. Again, it's confusing to the circadian rhythm." Carrie Bennett with Irene Lyon @ 25:34–26:34

Are You Making Fat or Breaking Fat? Roudy Nassif: "Food is another very powerful zeitgeber. It's not as powerful as light and darkness, but the peripheral clocks in our pancreas, liver and in our guts are also receiving information about the time of the day, by examining the timing of the food that is entering our mouth. "How can we harvest and harness the power of these circadian clocks in the peripheral organs? By making sure that we are eating at the similar time every day. I think even more importantly than this, by making sure that we are fasting at least two to three hours before going to bed, so that the body could run the proper repair and rejuvenation programs that we spoke about: mitophagy, autophagy and apoptosis. "Because essentially, the body cannot be breaking down food and repairing at the same time. It's either making fat or breaking fat." Roudy Nassif with @Dr Max Gulhane @ 33:47–34:53

Eric Novack MD: "Can I throw one other totally different scenario at you as well? "[…] that same person, so let's just say 55, 65 and they're not marathon runners, they're not totally invertebrates, so you know they kind of do their stuff and they're having knee pain. They come into the office. […] You get the X-ray and there are some mild arthritic changes in the knee. […] "Anecdotally, and I can say personally, going to effectively a no-carb diet, so what people call a carnivore diet, short term, even doing it for two weeks, I have never seen anything be more effective, ever, in my 28 years of orthopedics, of being able to almost eliminate basic musculoskeletal pain, than going to a carnivore diet. "I am not telling people that they need to only have dairy, eggs, fish and meat for the rest of their lives. I am just saying if you're hurting that badly, the anti-inflammatory effects of going to that are. . . I've just never seen anything like it. It's much better than taking drugs. It is totally life-changing. […] "If you are hurting, and if you're hurting bad enough to go spend your $50 copay to come see me, what do you have to lose? I know it's hard. I know it takes incredible discipline. I know we have all these things. But I just cannot recommend more, without giving specific medical advice, for people to try it. "Then the question is why does it work. So we can go to the decentralized reason for why it may work. "Number one is insulin absolutely can have a pro-inflammatory effect. Particularly since we believe that almost 90% of us are are a little bit metabolically not working great. So we probably have higher levels of insulin circulating anyway. So we can reduce the inflammation significantly. "Number two is leptin appears to potentially be anti-inflammatory. If we can make leptin work a little bit better, that can work as well. So that's coming up from our fat cells. When we go into ketosis, so beta hydroxybutyrate is one of the ketones that our body starts creating to use for energy. There is an enormous amount of evidence that beta hydroxybutyrate is directly antagonistic to what they call the inflammosome. […] Essentially it's saying that in a systemic fashion, it changes the way proteins in a cascade are being produced to reduce inflammation. That's part of it as well. "We turn over our joint fluid water probably every day. So all the different things that go between the synovium joint lining and the actual cartilage, they're turning over at different paces. So even within a few days, it's hard for people to believe, but the actual micro environment, or maybe below, of our joints literally can change within a few days. "And then there's the other side of it, which is, is it possible that if we are reducing our glyphosate intake and other these additive intakes which can impact collagen. Because our collagen actually turns over pretty darn quickly in these systems. Are we actually making a more effective barrier. Is our extracellular water actually better able to handle it, because it's not getting the same kinds of insults. "No one seen a perfect answer, and I've been asking around to see if somebody can give me the the holy grail for why it seems to work so well. But if you have bone or joint pain, and it's bothering you enough to care to listen to something like this and to go to the doctor, really what do you have to lose? "If you do it, it works great. Well maybe after 30 days because here's what I found. If people do it they start feeling better. That is the best way to get them to continue it. And you're not a bad person if you have a piece of birthday cake. it's just that, 'Huh. I didn't feel so good.' so you go back to changing it. "I know it sounds a bit preachy and I hate to be preachy about it, but as I say, I tell this to people multiple times every single day, and I get the blankest stares you could possibly imagine. There is usually like a three- or four-second pause of silence and then, 'Can we do a shot?' or, 'What else can we do?' […] "And then if you don't move, you need to move. The reality is most people in this day and age, many of them never learned how to move to start with." Eric Novack MD with Max Gulhane MD @ 01:07:57–01:13:56

The Gift of Time Danny Jones: "You had a story of a lady who came to you in one of your clinics. You had no idea why she came to you, but she. . ." Dr. Jack Kruse: "Oh, I know where you're. . . this is the thing we talked about in Rick's podcast." Danny Jones: "Yes, yes, the lady who wanted french fries." Dr. Jack Kruse: "[…] This is before I had my 'come to Jesus' moment, meaning the whole quantum biology thing. It was very unusual. "A lady tried to get in my office. […] She said, 'Look, I don't have a neurosurgical problem. But Dr. Kruse was involved in my care in a very weird way.' And she told the girl at the front desk that she had a heart transplant, because she had, I think it was myocarditis, but from a virus. "She got a heart and I was the neurosurgeon that got the family to donate this kid's heart. She figured that out somehow through the paperwork that the hospital gave her. It turned out she was right. When I heard the story, immediately I knew what she was talking about. I had to go back and look at my files to see the details around the kid. "The thing that I remembered is the kid was at a McDonald's drive-thru and a car came and T-boned him. He just got his like Happy Meal. The thing that they mentioned in the EMT report is that the kid had french fries all over his front seat. "I remember his mom telling me, she goes, 'Oh, he never went to McDonald's. But he always loved their french fries.' That was what stuck in my head. "So I actually had to go back and pull the kid's chart to find out. It turned out I was the neurosurgeon that pronounced him brain dead. That's when I called up the organ procurement agency and got the family to donate. "I'm a little bit different than most neurosurgeons. A lot of neurosurgeons turn it over to the hospital and let them do it. I think it's much better if the neurosurgeon talks to the family, 'cause we can answer questions way better than they can. And neurosurgeons are pretty good about subtracting the emotion out when something like this happens. "Danny, it's hard to say this to someone across the table, but neurosurgeons deal with death and destruction more than any other doctor in any other specialty. So we're really good at it. […] "But the thing that happens with us, we catch people at all parts of life. People that have GBMs, at the end of the life, like 70, 80 years old. But kids that have subdurals, epidurals, that are 18, 19 years old. I mean the last case that I did I just took a bullet out of someone's temporal lobe who I think was 22 years old. "The thing is when you deal with that stuff all the time, you're the best person to talk to the family. And I had an uncanny record of getting people to donate, because I think this happens to be a skill set that I have, a really good skill set. And part of me it bothers me because I know that these people are going to be tethered to big pharma. "But at the same time, the most valuable asset that we can give in decentralized medicine is the gift of time. "I have to tell you, I think the reason I feel passionate about this, if you know the other parts of my story when I talk about bitcoin, I tell people bitcoin is a time machine. "But I'm going to tell you that your mitochondria in you is also a time machine. And when you do an organ transplant, you're effectively giving someone a time machine. And to me, that's the reason why, early in my career, the people that taught me. . . that's why I go all in. It's probably. . . this is hard to talk about. . . [long pause; eyes moisten] "When other people are going through tragedy, you realize that you can give the gift of time to somebody else who it's running out of. There's no surgery that I can do that can do that, that can give that back. And the crazy part: I'm not even doing surgery. "So I've never told anybody. . . I have a famous term where I say it's 'brain surgery without a scalpel.' This is the exact idea that I came up with, why I decided to be good at this, because I knew that I could give people back time if I was really good at doing that. "The reason I sat down and talked to that lady is 'cause I knew how important it was to her. "And then I thought about the family and I thought about the kid. That mother, I'll never forget her. It was heart-wrenching for her. I told her that her son would still be alive, just in a different format. I remember it like it was yesterday. "But when that lady walked in, it was like reality hit me in the face. I was telling the mom that, and it turned out I got the lesson. "I think it happened before I went through my own 'come to Jesus' moment, because this was preconditioning me to realize that I had to go on this journey. When you realize that a lot of things that you're doing to people isn't the right thing, and this is the right thing, that's when you have to go all in. "I said a couple things to you when we were talking about the JFK thing, that incentives dictate outcomes. That's the day that incentive stopped dictating outcomes for me. That's when things began to change for me. That's when I started doing things based on time, and not based on money. That's why that story. . . "I don't like to think about it, because for me, there's very few cases in a neurosurgery career where you know that you were changed. That was a big one." Dr. Jack Kruse with Danny Jones @ 02:30:54–02:38:15

Eric Novack MD: "[…] everybody has their cell phones on. People have their Wi-Fi on all the time. I mean listen, I actually can't get my wife or children to not wear Bluetooth headphones, […] even though we know that there is essentially an endless amount of data. Some of the details I think are less important, but you know that those non-native EMFs at those frequencies are non-ionizing. "Everybody knows, 'Don't get radiated with X-rays too much.' I will laugh because I get patients who come in the office with new shoulder pain. They give us a hard time about taking a plain shoulder X-ray, which in this day and age with digital X-ray is a shockingly small amount of radiation. I mean it's less than a quarter of a shoulder X-ray from when I started training, because the magic of the digital work. "But they come in and they never take one of their Bluetooth ear things out the entire time for the visit. Their kids, the iPad isn't here [at arms length]. The kids are on their iPad with it to here [inches in front of their nose] with Bluetooth headphones as their babysitter during the visit. "So we're still living under that cloud today where there's essentially been a complete suppression of the potential downside effects, whether it's on voltage-gated calcium channels, or things that. . . essentially it screws up energy flows in the cell. It can have a direct impact on hydration and what goes on with cellular water. It can have an impact on protein folding, which is how things get managed […] "I know that Jack is a neurosurgeon, but as an orthopedist we have to always give the neurosurgeons a hard time. All these joints are right there, and they're getting equally pummeled by all this radiation, and is absolutely a huge impact. […] Max Gulhane MD: "[…] I'm really glad you brought that up. Just because it isn't ionizing, doesn't mean it's not having meaningful health impacts." Eric Novack MD: "And practically speaking, […] people come in because they're having problems. Some of it's acute, but the vast majority of things are chronic. The patients don't like X. Right? They don't like how they look, they don't like how they feel, they don't like that they hurt. But it's remarkable to me how unwilling so many people are to even consider changes, which probably speaks to how incredibly successful industry has been at doing the obfuscating." Eric Novack MD with @Dr Max Gulhane @ 29:50–35:10

Eric Novack MD, orthopedic surgeon: "When I was a kid [..] we didn't see these elbow ligament injuries, which are super common in throwing athletes, for the so-called Tommy John surgery. He was the Major League Baseball pitcher who had the first really successful operation, in terms of return to sport. "Now these things are happening every single day. The surgeries are happening all the time in teenagers, and ACL tears or ligament injuries in the knee. We're seeing enormous number of ACL injuries in younger people, particularly in young women. There is this hand wringing, particularly for this ACL in young women. Why is it happening? "I have never once heard anybody say, 'Huh. Is it because these kids are on devices all day long? By the way, we don't activate their healthy systems during the day by getting them morning sun. Oh by the way, they're on their devices all night so their melatonin-focused repair system doesn't have a chance to help them build things up.' "Because that is really incontrovertible. While albeit a very complex and complicated multifactorial system, melatonin absolutely helps dictate repair systems, both overnight from the central systems, and during the day due our intracellular melatonin production, which is primarily stimulated by the near infrared system. "So we're not giving these growing bodies the opportunity to do the necessary repair. "So yeah, probably playing volleyball 11 months a year and doing this [makes spiking motion] isn't the greatest thing for you. But imagine how much better off we'd be if we were actually giving these kids' bodies a chance to actually recover. "And that doesn't even account in the young women and men for the hormonal disruptions that happen when we have them sitting under LED blue-only lights for nine hours during the day."

Lewis Howes: "What is the biggest lessons that meditation or meditation practices has provided for you?" Rick Rubin: "It provides a quiet space where the chatter. . . you realize that your thoughts are not you, and that left your own devices, there'll be a lot of voices in your head just going all the time. They're not you. They don't mean anything. They're really repetitious. They're not working in your best interest." Lewis Howes: "So if your thoughts aren't you, then what are you?" Rick Rubin: "I suppose you are the unchanging part of yourself that's always there, probably from the time you're born till the time you die, and maybe before and after. It's what's really inside. It's not changeable. It's what you came with." Lewis Howes: "It's not the thinking mind. It's almost being the observer of the thoughts." Rick Rubin: "The one who sees the thoughts. That sounds right." Lewis Howes: "Yeah, observing thoughts." Rick Rubin: "That's good. Thank you." Lewis Howes: "Yeah, that's what I was hearing you say." Rick Rubin with Lewis Howes @ 01:00:05–01:01:36

Dr. Jack Kruse: "Now, don't think that I'm naive to believe that even a good experiment can go bad. I mean we saw the Framingham Heart Study, started in '48, finished in '99. To this very day, every cardiologist believes that the Framingham Heart Study said that LDL cholesterol kills you. In fact, if you go back and look at what was published in The New York Times in January of '99, the 50-year data, it says exactly the opposite. "But guess what? Even a good experiment can be stolen when doctors aren't in charge, the media brings the propaganda to the table. And we find out who's incentivized the media, which is big pharma, device manufacturers, the American Heart Association. "In other words, people who are not stakeholders in patients health, one-on-one. if you don't have skin in the game, you have no say in this system. That is the key." Dr. Jack Kruse with Dr. Ted Achacoso @ 40:19–41:22

Dr. Jack Kruse: "When you're out in the sun I want your skin in the game [...] It turns out the older you get, you need more sun, not less. "That's counterintuitive to our civilization and culture, because as women get older or men get older, they tend to cover more up, because they they have this vanity problem with their body. I teach my members I want you to be more naked the older you get, back kind of like when you were a baby. "Turns out the younger you are, the more efficient you are making all those chemicals that we talked about: vitamin D, dopamine and actually melatonin." Dr.Jack Kruse with Sherrill Sellman, ND @ 26:06–26:49

Dr. Ted Achacoso: "Jack, you just reminded me of something that I've been railing about for decades now. It's not just X-rays. It's actually the use of ultrasound in pregnancy. Like how many times do you need to ultrasound irradiate a fetus in there when you know very well that ultrasound actually causes cavitation." Dr. Jack Kruse: "Right." —Dr. Ted Achacoso with Dr. Jack Kruse @ 24:00–24:25
