now I’ve done quite a few videos on the

heart I’ve talked about

coronary artery classification vascular

calcification but there’s one additional

cause that I recently found through

reading a book which I’m going to put a

link down below which I think is pretty

common and I haven’t made the link yet

and I think you should know about it

especially if you want to prevent

calcification of your arteries and this

additional cause is called lactic

acidosis now when I mentioned lactic

acidosis or maybe lactic acid you might

associate that with

um kind of a burning you feel after you

exercise in your muscles right you might

think of that but lactic acidosis goes

way beyond that lactic acidosis

occurs as a byproduct of glucose

metabolism and both lactic acidosis and

lactate in your blood are associated

with a lot of additional problems okay

like

sudden death from heart attack

thrombosis which means you’re clotting

in your arteries panic attacks autonomic

nervous system dysfunction which could

include a lot of other problems even

like in bipolar schizophrenia sepsis

which is a systemic infection certain

arrhythmia problems like ventricular

fibulation and liver disease and

definitely diabetes and even cancer and

restless leg syndrome but my primary

focus today is to show you this

connection between lactic acidosis

and hypoxia in your arteries okay

hypoxia that’s a lack of oxygen and then

the next consequence of that is a

calcification so vascular calcification

can definitely come from this hypoxia

which is caused by this acid situation

in your blood called lactic acidosis and

so calcification in the arteries is not

just from old age it’s not just from

you know consuming too much dietary

calcium or even just a lack of vitamin

K2 now there’s two primary common

reasons why someone might develop

some version of lactic acidosis one is

they’re just on too many carbohydrates

too much sugar in the diet can then

cause this abundance of lactate and that

can develop into lactic acid so anything

that can increase the metabolism of

glucose is called glycolysis like

consuming too much sugar can create this

problem the other common link that was

discussed in this book which you just

need to be aware of is an overactive

sympathetic dominant situation you’re

too much in the flutter fight and

basically we’re talking about chronic

stress

chronic stress is very similar to

constantly eating chronic large doses of

sugar because stress puts you into this

flight of fight mode and you’re just

basically using sugar okay as your fuel

source both from adrenaline as well as

cortisol cortisol is a hormone

adrenaline is a neurotransmitter but

another name for cortisol is a

glucocorticoid because it it uses

glucose right but adrenaline also will

activate and release a lot of sugar and

this can very easily develop this lactic

acidosis situation metformin causes as

well metformin has a warning sign on the

label uh it can cause lactic acidosis

why because one of the big problems or

side effects from metformin is lactic

acidosis now even Warfarin a very common

drug to block vitamin K1 to help thin

your blood so you don’t develop clotting

has a side effect of vascular

calcification because it can produce

lactic acidosis also statin drugs which

help block cholesterol also have a side

effect of this calcification problem as

well and lactic acidosis also drinking

too much alcohol will do it and even if

you over train if you exercise too much

you can develop a lot of lactic acid

I wouldn’t say that you’re going to

develop calcium deposits from that but

it can definitely put you in a state of

lactic acidosis and when you have lactic

acidosis the pH of your blood starts

going down that means it’s becoming

acidic and probably the first symptom

you’re going to notice is breathing

problems it’s going to be

hard to breathe hard to get oxygen

because you need a certain pH for that

you’re going to feel very restless

especially in the leg muscles but there

is an effective remedy for lactic

acidosis that you need to know about if

you have enough B1 thymine chances are

you probably won’t even develop lactic

acid in the first place so of course the

deeper remedy of lactic acidosis is to

find out what’s causing it are you

consuming too many carbs are you eating

too much sugar well then go on keto are

you going through stress are you in this

chronic flutter fight mode

well there’s a lot of things you can do

to lower that but B1 can vary

effectively pull you out of this lactic

acidosis and also it will counter the

complications from consuming

high amounts of carbohydrates as well as

the complications from diabetes

as well as the side effects from being

under this chronic state of sympathetic

dominance or stress B1 is the best

vitamin for stress in fact I’ve talked

about this before when you take B1 it

really helps nervous agitation this

buildup of energy this restlessness so

B1 will help with that because you’re

actually

curbing or reducing this these effects

of lactic acidosis you’re going to even

breathe better when you take Natural B1

so B1 is really good to pull someone out

of anxiety and the symptoms or side

effects from lactic acidosis so B1 can

actually also help you with hypoxia

which is a lack of oxygen in your in

your vascular system it can help balance

out the pH B1 has also been known to

directly help inhibit thrombosis or

clotting so it’s really really good for

the heart and of course B1 is also good

to inhibit this calcification buildup in

the arteries and we all know that

consuming too much alcohol will really

deplete your B1 and so that’s another

common cause of why someone would end up

with a B1 deficiency you know I live in

a farm and we have cattle and when we

first bought this cattle we

you know we were asking Farmers around

what do we need for cattle do we need to

supplement their diet with vitamins

whatever and many of the farmers around

our area said you you should also buy

large amounts of baking soda and I’m

like why do you need baking soda oh well

because they can develop lactic acidosis

so if you look up why a cow would

develop lactic acidosis you will find

it’s the side effect from consuming too

many grains okay

too many refined carbohydrates a cow is

meant to consume grass in plants and

weeds not grains and if a cow has lactic

acidosis they can

become very depressed and active not be

around the rest of the cows they can get

diarrhea they can get dehydration and

they can die and unfortunately some of

these Farmers just go ahead and treat

these cows with baking soda or some type

of alkalizing agent okay instead of

really looking at the underlying

mechanism a cow’s stomach is not

designed to be actually that acidic like

our stomachs it’s designed to be

slightly alkaline in its fermentation of

grass so this is just another example of

how grains and sugar and refined carbs

are not meant to be in our diet and

number three make sure you have enough

B1 natural B1 not the synthetic thymine

but natural B1 in your diet if you

potentially could have this issue now I

think the next most important video for

you to watch would be to learn all the

underlying causes of a B1 deficiency so

that way you you understand the whole

picture and I put that video up right
