let’s talk about the benefits of using salt for your immune system

there’s a certain chemical right here it’s called hypochlorite that is a

chemical name for bleach i’m not sure you realize this but

two of your immune cells actually make bleach to kill

microbes the neutrophils and the macrophages and both of these

are phagocytes and what does that mean it means

that these cells actually eat bacteria and viruses

and fungus and mold and candida so when they eat the microbe they pull it in

they encapsulate the microbe and they pour in chemicals one of the chemicals

they pour in is bleach and guess how your body makes

bleach from chloride as in sodium chloride

so it comes from salt so if you don’t have enough salt in your body

this mechanism or weapon used by these two cells

becomes severely compromised so your defense mechanism is diminished

so hypochlorite bleach is a broad spectrum microbicide which basically

poisons the microbe it’ll kill bacteria within milliseconds

and it’s much much stronger than another chemical that these guys use

called hydrogen peroxide and as a side note

if these immune cells run into the unfriendly

form of candida they’ll start dumping a lot of hypochlorite into the system to

kill the candida and certain reports indicate that it’ll

release between 70 and 80 percent of the chloride reserve so they can

actually make more hypochlorite and what’s

interesting when i was in practice i noticed that certain people

that came in that had a candida infection or overgrowth of candida

also had a very pungent smell about them which basically was

similar to bleach and that was probably the immune system trying to wipe out the

candida and as a side note if you have candida

the most important thing to do is not to consume

bleach but to consume salt to actually help

your body make more bleach as well as bring your carbs way down

to zero because candida lives on sugars and glucose so now let’s talk

about what would cause a deficiency in salt

of course the obvious thing is not consuming enough salt

you need about one to one and a half teaspoons

okay level teaspoons of salt per day if you’re not exercising

if you’re sweating a lot and you’re sweating out electrolytes specifically

sodium or chloride you need more salt now when you do the

ketogenic diet you need more sodium to prevent something called keto

flu now when you’re deficient in sodium you

can have a lot of the symptoms that mimic the flu without being the flu

there’s no infection involved but a deficiency of sodium will cause

muscle weakness muscle achiness headaches lethargy dizziness

not necessarily mucus but a lot of the other symptoms

and when you actually go from burning sugar to burning

fat and producing ketones you’re going to lose a lot of the fluid retention and

with that you lose a lot of sodium now with the

immune system you need the other half of sodium you

need the chlorides i think the chlorides are pretty much

not really emphasized very much we always talk about sodium but i think

this is a very ignored mineral chloride is also needed to make

hydrochloric acid to also kill off pathogens that can come into your

stomach but it’s definitely needed for the immune system

to build up phagocytes another way that you can become deficient

in salt is having diarrhea vomiting taking diuretics consuming a lot of

potassium without salt i mean even if you were to

consume 10 cups of vegetables you may find that

you start getting a salt craving so you definitely need the balance of

salt with potassium as well if your adrenals are burnt out you’re

going to need a little bit more salt if you drink too much water

you will dilute the body’s electrolytes specifically sodium chloride now there’s

a condition called hyponatremia which is low sodium

in your blood which usually comes from just drinking like gallons of water

so you want to drink enough but just realize if you drink too much you’re

going to deplete your sodium and even chlorides as well if you’re

doing some type of endurance exercise running marathon

triathlon things like that you definitely need a lot more

salt now a football player in practice in the summer

could sweat out about six teaspoons of salt in that one workout so the salt

that you need is really dependent on your activity level and how much you

sweat anyway i wanted to talk about the

importance of salt for the immune system as well as preventing the keto flu and

i always recommend when you’re taking salt to take sea salt himalayan

sea salt is one of my favorites thanks for watching

hey we’re back with another amazing recipe no grains no sugar

totally keto there’s no suffering on keto absolutely not Karen

and it’s an immune system builder absolutely

you have to check this out i think you should hurry up watch the recipe

and make it yourself it’s just so easy to be keto

but is it simple it’s super simple we hope you enjoy

making it as much as we are enjoying eating it
