let’s talk about the real cause of

breathing problems i’m talking about

sleep apnea i’m talking about snoring

i’m talking about all sorts of sinus

problems there’s a really interesting

book which i’m halfway through called

breath the new science of a lost ark by

james

nester and i agree with most of the data

he talks about with a couple things that

i disagree but you know i’m halfway

through maybe he talks about that in the

second part of the book but if you

combine the data in this book

with the data from western price’s book

i think you’ll come up with a really

good solution for breathing problems he

did some really interesting research

from all over the world on indigenous

cultures and he looked at her teeth

because he was a dentist and he found

some fascinating data if you compare

older cultures who actually ate a lot

healthier versus the modern civilized

culture that we live in today there’s a

huge difference in our

teeth okay i mean if you start studying

ancient skulls they had their wisdom

teeth right nowadays people just remove

their wisdom teeth okay why is that well

back then they had really good straight

teeth good facial bones

they had a wider face good bone

structure nowadays

our face is becoming thinner

people are having nasal septum deviation

which they need surgery for um braces

are normal i mean it’s kind of weird

that we need braces why the heck do we

need braces why are our teeth so crooked

people are having sleep apnea they’re

snoring

so what is the difference between what

we used to do

and what we do now

well james nestor focuses more on the

lack of chewing right nowadays

everything is uh soft foods like soups

guacamole hummus

dips

our steak has to be very very tender

we don’t consume a lot of vegetables so

we don’t chew a lot especially these

young kids where the only thing they

chew is probably bubble gum

so james nestor is focusing on the lack

of chewing and western prices focusing

more on nutrition because i think they

both are the root cause

because simply if you look at the

indigenous cultures they’re doing a lot

of

whole foods they’re doing a lot of

nutritionally dense foods

and it’s the trace minerals that

activate the proteins that help build

our bones as well as the vitamins that

activate the minerals that make our

bones structurally sound

and if you have a nutritional deficiency

the actual structure the size of the

bones will not fully develop

i mean that’s a known fact but

if you never chew okay if you’re

constantly being fed soft foods you

don’t activate the muscles to make the

bones structurally sound i mean just

like the rest of your body i mean if you

want to build a strong back you can’t do

it without activating the muscles right

so you have to do certain exercises to

strengthen the muscles to strengthen the

bones because they’re attached through

ligaments so as far as the face goes the

main muscle is the

articulation in your jaw of chewing and

if you’re not chewing enough you’re not

going to activate the muscles around

your face and so the real problem boils

down to one thing

our mouth is too small for our teeth and

if there’s not enough space for the

teeth to grow it comes out sideways it

comes out forward it comes out back and

we don’t have room for these extra teeth

called the wisdom teeth and if our mouth

is smaller our airway passages are also

going to be smaller and that is going to

restrict our breathing i mean to me it’s

barbaric on the way that they deal with

these issues i mean to go in there and

do surgery they’re they’re surgically

making the airways more open i mean even

if you think about animals in the wild

right do they have crooked teeth do they

need braces

no

why because they do a lot of chewing and

they eat food that their bodies were

meant to eat so this is what i recommend

first of all get your kids off the

refined foods number one and get them to

start chewing foods uh more now you as

an adult watching this can also make a

dramatic change on your facial structure

which will then lead to helping you

breathe better

and here’s what i’m going to recommend

you do start to do nose breathing which

is a lot better than mouth breathing and

you’re going to force your body to get

more oxygen number two start chewing

your food longer okay now i recommend

consuming

salad like in large quantities like

seven to ten cups when i tell people

that sometimes they freak out they’re

like seven to ten cups of vegetables

that’s way too much chewing for them so

they’ll say can i blend it can i use a

greens drink as a substitute

and i’ll just tell them why don’t you

just have your spouse chew it for you

and then that way you can avoid the the

massive effort of chewing your food but

i really think you should start chewing

your food because if you’re going to

chew seven to ten cups of salad and just

take the time to chew it you will

develop your jaw muscles and it’s not a

bad thing to chew other things like

steak for example that might not be so

tender just spend your time chewing that

because what you’re doing you’re

strengthening your muscles and you’re

remodeling your jaw muscles and your

face muscles and that’s going to create

more oxygen because you’re going to have

more of an opening through your mouth

i mean you can start eating celery

carrots so find things that are true

that are also nutrient dense foods all

right number three and this is based on

western price

fat soluble vitamins are crucial like

vitamin d

like vitamin k2 both of those fat cycle

vitamins control calcium and you need

plenty of calcium in the right places to

form teeth in your jaw so in other words

don’t go on a low fat diet so this

includes eggs egg yolk cheese not the

low-fat cheese it’s fatty fish fatty

meats and grass-fed butter as well

now of course one of the big things is

avoiding processed foods refined

carbohydrates and then trace minerals

trace minerals

are all about

activating

certain proteins in your body and a lot

of people are deficient in trace meals

because it’s just not in our foods

anymore because the large farms are

really only putting three minerals back

in the soil uh npk right we have

nitrogen potassium and phosphorous but

what about all the other trace minerals

that we need but trace minerals are

found in shellfish they’re found in

seafood okay and seek help as well so

that would be definitely something to

put on the list now if you haven’t seen

my video on nose breathing i’ll put that

up right here check it out
