so i have a very important topic today i

mean this is like probably

something that everyone needs to know

about as their foundational knowledge in

nutrition okay and it relates to

genetics

so many people think that well you know

i just have bad genes

and there’s nothing i can do about it we

just have to cope with it but first of

all you can control your genes through

what’s called epigenetics i have a lot

of information on that

and that has to do with just lifestyle

changes right because the genes can turn

on and off based on what happens in your

environment but what i want to talk

about

is

the deeper cause of genetic

malformations

now this talk is inspired by this

amazing book that i got which was

actually very expensive 250

soil grass and cancer okay

the link between human and animal health

and the mineral balance in the soil

fascinating and i’m on chapter 16 and

it’s talking about the diet of the

mother and malformation of the child so

i want to read a couple quotes right

here

almost all malformations observed in man

have been reproduced in laboratory

experiments with rats by altering the

mother’s diet during

pregnancy a diet deficient in folic acid

produces virtually all known types of

abnormalities in the hearts arteries and

veins of baby

rats so a lot of these malformations can

be reproduced if you create a deficiency

in the diet so i have a question

when do you think the most important

time

to eat healthy would be

if your answer was when you’re pregnant

you are correct because

the fetus the growing baby that is

developing

is

completely dependent on the nutrients of

the mother and if there’s just one thing

missing it can create a devastating

chain reaction effect

in their future existence and i’m

talking about behavior

talking about intelligence i’m talking

about structure

okay um

like if someone is born with flat feet

scoliosis hunchback whatever

or dental malformations or some

malformation in the shape of their face

it’s all dependent on the nutrients the

nutrients especially trace minerals

are essential for enzymes and proteins

to work and i’m not just talking about

metabolism and building a body but i’m

also talking about the repair enzymes

within your dna so your genes are

basically blueprints right to allow

certain cellular machinery to take that

information and then build healthy

tissue you have actually

two different sets of

proofreading machines that actually go

through the dna at a very fast rate and

they’re scanning your dna which are the

blueprints for errors okay and then

there’s at least five

different repair

proteins or enzymes that we know about

there could be more

that are in a constant repair action to

repair

any errors that occurred in this code

and all of these repair enzymes are

dependent on

micronutrients like

folate

like zinc

cobalt that makes b12

copper which is another trace mineral

that makes vitamin c

iron and if i didn’t mention iodine i’ll

mention it again iodine it’s a huge

connection between iodine and

a child’s intelligence and then we have

manganese there’s great information on

the relationship between a manganese

deficiency and a structural problem that

could develop in a body then you also

have calcium calcium deficiency which

could come from a vitamin d deficiency

and then we have selenium which helps

make up vitamin e and so all these

nutrients are just so vital

to

be available when someone is pregnant as

well as when they’re breastfeeding and

now of course if they’re not

breastfeeding of course they’re probably

put on formula which i don’t even want

to get into that topic at this point but

unfortunately the

formulas are soy based and i mean they

actually talk about the worst ingredient

to give a child

especially when they’re developing is

soy because of its estrogen effect i

mean if you even think about another

cause of

genetic alteration

you have um toxins right you have what’s

called endocrine disruptors okay well

guess what is included in the definition

of an endocrine disruptor any chemical

or toxin that mimics

estrogen okay

and we know that certain things in our

environment like even soy can increase

estrogen and you shouldn’t be giving

someone that early in life

so much estrogen but that’s a whole

different topic basically in this video

i want to talk about just the

relationship between micronutrients and

your genes and the importance of getting

these micronutrients in your diet

especially at an early age now there’s

some other additional information i want

to share with you in fact i’m going to

read it off right now

in this study

entitled micronutrients and genomic

stability and basically this is about

stabilizing your genes with

micronutrients a new paradigm for

recommending dietary allowances the rdas

diet as a key factor in determining

genomic stability is more important than

previously imagined because we now know

it impacts on all relevant pathways

namely exposure to dietary carcinogens

activation detoxification of carcinogens

dna repair dna synthesis

so in other words we have not given

these macronutrients enough emphasis

on their importance

in

making sure that our genes are stable so

you have certain genetic defects that

you might be born with right

but you also have

genetic mutations

and genetic mutations

can occur

this life

so a genetic mutation is a as a change

in your code that can occur from either

being exposed to a toxin this life or

having some micronutrient deficiency

this life

in fact there’s data which i’m going to

put all this research down below

that demonstrates

nutritional deficiencies

can mimic

radiation damage to your dna that’s

mind-blowing so deficiencies in folate

b12 vitamin c

iron especially zinc okay

iodine manganese selenium

if you’re deficient in those that

deficiency can mimic

actual damage of your dna now you

wouldn’t actually think of a missing

element causing damage because it’s

missing and you don’t really look for

things that are missing you might think

more of like radiation toxicity things

like that

but micronutrient deficiency is a very

important thing so getting back to this

book for a second

he’s going into deficiencies of copper

in the soil

can cause various problems

in the animals that eat the grass and

they’ve actually taken like

lambs and they’ve moved them into

different pastures with certain

nutrients present

and these certain problems disappear

so this leads me to our actual food you

know if your food is grown on soils that

are missing certain nutrients

it could have devastating effects the

problem now is farmers use three

minerals npk okay n nitrogen p

phosphorus and k potassium

but what about all the other 90 plus

minerals or trace minerals or elements

that you need in the soil that is an

area that i’m very interested in that’s

an area that i’m doing research now on a

farm where i’m actually doing all sorts

of experiments in fact recently i’ve

just done an experiment spraying all of

our grass

with

a very unique type of

ocean water without so much of the

sodium chloride because that can be

toxic to the grass so we’re doing

experiments i will be doing a video on

this but apparently it can really

fortify the soil with all the

micronutrients and limit the fungal

infections to the plants

and it can actually greatly enhance

the health of an animal which then

enhances the health of

humans that eat the animals and i’m also

doing experiments in my greenhouse which

i’ll share with you as well

on using

hydroponic type solutions now

here’s the problem that i have with

hydroponic and i’m doing the study right

now and i’ll share the results

when i’m done

now in one hydroponic unit i’m using

just the normal mineral solution that

they give you which is actually only

like 15 minerals okay and the other one

i’m using

all 94 minerals and so i’m going to do

testing and i’ll share the results with

you but it’s is fascinating to me that

we’re not emphasizing the foundation

which our food grows on and how that can

affect our bodies i mean just take for

example um

a tomato from italy if you’ve never

tasted a tomato from italy

you need to do it it’s incredible and so

like why

do these tomatoes from italy taste so

darn good is it the seed

no it’s in the soil what is so unique in

the soil well they have a lot of soils

that have been around volcanoes as in

volcano ash or minerals that provide the

necessary

elements for these plants to thrive on

and so of course in my greenhouse i use

volcanic minerals as one of the

fertilizers which i will be starting a

whole new youtube channel on that very

soon so the minerals in the soil supply

the plants what they need the nutrients

in our body provide us with stable

genes that then we can grow healthy

bodies on so again i want to emphasize

the importance of making sure

that

someone who’s pregnant gets the right

nutrition not some synthetic prenatal

but the actual diet eating food

very nutrient dense

as well as fortifying

the woman who’s breastfeeding as well

that’s very very important and hopefully

she will breastfeed because

the formulas out there are just so

deficient in nutrients i mean they

actually talk about like folic acid

being so important

in preventing birth defects but what

about all the other micronutrients and

also in the right form something missing

in the diet can leave the child with

permanent

problems in their future health and that

leads me to the next question what is

the diet

of a child nowadays well unfortunately

it’s ultra processed food it’s not just

junk food it’s

really bad junk food in fact

67

of their calories are ultra processed

junk food now does this have an effect

on the child well what do you think

in a major way all right next question

and please

type this in the comments below because

i want to read this at what age did you

start eating

healthy

for me it was 28 years old yeah 28 years

old i’m actually 35 now so that’s it’s

been some years and i’m being very

sarcastic because i’m in my 50s now but

the point is that hopefully it’s sooner

than later for some of you watching you

haven’t started eating healthy yet

so i just want to encourage you to do

that and also encourage any

female who is pregnant to start eating

healthy immediately and also get the

right micronutrients and i’m not bias of

my micronutrients but i will do a plug

for my trace minerals because trace

minerals are involved in so many

different biochemical pathways and it’s

such a an easy thing to provide trace

minerals in a

blended form versus to try to take

individual trace minerals one by one

not being sure if you’re getting the

right balance and i think out of all the

vitamins and minerals trace minerals are

kind of like the most

ignored because i think people don’t

understand what they do and they don’t

understand that our food nowadays is

deficient in micronutrients unless

they’re consuming nutrient-dense foods

and then you have a woman who’s pregnant

they go to the doctor and the doctor

monitors

the growth of this developing baby right

but they’re not looking at the diet

they’re not measuring any deficiencies

they’re unfortunately just not trained

in nutrition so this video is very very

very important in increasing your

awareness

on

healthy eating and i think the next

video for you to watch is what to eat

that’s nutrient dense so i put it up

right here check it out
