today let’s show you 11 signs of certain

deficiencies in your body these are

pretty common and I think it’s a good

idea to be able to understand various

things that go on in your body and

what’s really behind them from a

nutritional standpoint so the first one

is excessive yawning okay

oh man like that now it could be you’re

tired it could be you’re out of shape

but more likely it is an iron deficiency

if you’re low on iron you can’t make

heme in your blood and you’re going to

be a bit deficient in oxygen and you’re

going to want to try to get more air so

either the person is not consuming

enough iron from their diet because

maybe they’re a vegan or the stomach

acid and their stomach is not strong

enough to be able to extract this iron

from the meat that they eat but

typically the best source of iron is in

red meat now this symptom also relates

to the next one which is air hunger like

you have difficulty breathing a little

different but similar this too is a

situation where you’re trying to get

more oxygen but usually the cause is

because your body or more specifically

your blood is too acidic okay slightly

too acidic normally the blood should be

slightly alkaline and so if the pH goes

down just a little bit too much you’re

considered having something called

acidosis and that symptom usually comes

from a B1 deficiency so when you’re

deficient in B1 the little energy

factors in your cells called the

mitochondria don’t work that well

because when you think about B1 think of

it as like a spark plug to ignite the

oxygen fuel carburetor in your

mitochondria just like an engine and so

without that spark plug we can’t burn

fuel and then things can kind of backed

up and you start developing too much

lactic acid and that produces a lack of

oxygen and all you need to do is take B1

but also realize they’re the number one

reason why people are deficient in B1 is

that they’re eating too many carbs and

sugars so the more carbs you eat the

more B1 you’re going to need to deal

with those carbs thus we recommend going

on keto all right the next symptom would

be this little tetany a little pitching

it could be on the eyelid or in the face

or in the arm what is that that is just

the opposite your blood is excessively

alkaline okay and when your blood is

successfully alkaline you can’t

transport calcium that well so calcium

starts building up on the nerves and

they short-circuit the nerve

conductivity creating kind of like a a

twitching going on at the muscle itself

so we have this interference between the

nerve and the muscle causing this tetany

and so whether this alkaline situation

is causing it or just one of the

symptoms of it you don’t really know

based on just tetany but a simple remedy

would be to take some apple cider

vinegar to kind of acidify the body a

bit and mobilize that calcium another

remedy to actually increase more

absorption of this calcium could be to

take just vitamin D that could be the

reason but in this situation

calcium is kind of stuck in the body so

you can have symptoms of a Calcium

deficiency it’s not really Calcium

deficiency it’s just kind of locked up

so we need to mobilize it by altering

the pH as well as taking vitamin D

another thing you can kind of identify

certain deficiencies is looking at the

stool

now if your stool is green

typically it’s because you’re not

digesting your salad or your greens and

that chlorophyll is showing up down in

your stool

now yes it’s true that chlorophyll is

fat soluble and you could be deficient

in bile but more than likely it’s not

that that’s causing it it’s usually

socially with diarrhea and something

going on in the gut whether you have

some type of Mal absorption in the

digestive system because maybe you had

some damage or inflammation there so if

you find that as soon as you start

increasing your vegetables you get

diarrhea and you have green stool then

you should probably just avoid

vegetables for now and do the carnivore

diet for a while because your system is

not able to digest it and it could be

also related to a lack of friendly

bacteria now if the stool is yellowish

or pale

uh think lack of bile because you’re

having too much fat especially if the

stool floats that means you need more

bile so you can take that as a

supplement even though bile is not a

nutrient it is an essential thing to

help you extract fats part of bile is

something called bilirubin it’s it’s

like the byproduct of red blood cells

that are damaged or broken that your

body has to kind of deal with them so it

then it turns into bilirubin which uh

the Latin word for that is red as in the

color in your blood but when it breaks

down it kind of goes through the blood

and the urine and then also in the bile

ducts in the bowel and so when it

oxidizes a certain type of chemical

reactions that cause different coloring

effects from this bilirubin so this is

why your urine is yellow and this is why

your stool should be brown it’s actually

originally coming from that red orange

pigment but if the stool is light

colored or pale that means or yellow

that means that you’re lacking bile so

there’s something going on with the

gallbladder another common symptom is

achiness in your lower back or your hips

or even the upper part of your legs that

is a classic vitamin D deficiency okay

and I would take probably 10 000 I use

and within probably

10 15 minutes you’re going to feel your

back a lot better a lack of vitamin D

will also cause like bone pain so if you

press like on your sternum right here

your breastbone and it’s sore that’s a

good indication that you need more

vitamin D you can also press on your

shins the front part of your lower leg

bone and if it’s sore chances are you

need more vitamin D next uh symptom

would be cold intolerance you cannot

tolerate the cold that is an iodine

deficiency because it’s a function of

the thyroid and as an extra little thing

if you can’t tolerate heat typically

that could be also a B1 deficiency and

also sometimes this cold intolerance

could be a B1 deficiency too but more

than likely it’s going to be an iodine

deficiency which a lot of people are

deficient in all right now what about a

white tongue that is candida overgrowth

in your colon you have a lot of bacteria

like 99 bacteria and then you have one

percent other microorganisms like yeast

fungus and also candida and normally

they exist in a friendly state but as

soon as you stress these microorganisms

out usually by taking an antibiotic

and you kill off the bacteria but it

doesn’t kill off other things like yeast

then you eliminate that thing that keeps

this candida in check

so now we get an overgrowth of candida

and at the same time they become a bit

unfriendly so they create problems in

your body and they start to Rob

nutrition and create all sorts of issues

so you’ll see this overgrowth of candida

on your mouth

so the real cause is a deficiency of

probiotics so you just need to take a

probiotic but the other thing is that if

you continue to eat sugar or any type of

refined carbohydrate you’ll keep feeding

them so you have to give up sugar to

kill them off because they only can live

on sugar they don’t eat fats they don’t

eat proteins so as soon as you starve

them they go away let’s say you had high

LDL and low HDL that is a classic

vitamin B3 deficiency it’s called niacin

if you were going to take this as a

remedy which by the way is a really

potent

um regulator of cholesterol and

triglycerides in LDL and as well as to

help regulate HDL make sure you take the

type of B3 that is the niacin not the

one that doesn’t create a flush you want

the B3 that creates the flushing or else

it won’t work all right the next sign

would be bloating or stomach pain

or indigestion that is a classic lack of

acid in your stomach and the remedy is

betaine hydrochloride that means that

your stomach does not have enough acid

to digest your food all right next

symptom would be muscle weakness that is

a classic sodium deficiency okay you

need more salt and last one is high

blood pressure

and we can also include in their high

pulse rate

if you have that that means that you

need more potassium it’s a potassium

deficiency and sometimes a vitamin D

deficiency this is why sometimes when

people take vitamin D they may even end

up with low blood pressure or a low

pulse rate most people need Vitamin D

and it helps to regulate the

cardiovascular system very very

efficiently so now that you understand

how to read the body a little bit better

if you haven’t seen this very popular

video on how to evaluate your liver

based on your foot I put that video
