Mark Bell's Power Project - Are EMFs Injuring the 49ers? David Herrera Explains Levi’s Stadium, Cellular Water, and Recovery

Episode Date: January 19, 2026

David Herrera returns to break down a controversial topic: electromagnetic fields and human performance. With injuries piling up in professional sports, especially the NFL, some are asking if stadiums, substations, and modern electrical environments are silently affecting recovery, hydration, and connective tissue.Is this just conspiracy talk, or is there real science behind it?We dig into EMF exposure at practice facilities, how electromagnetic fields interact with cellular water, why tendons and ligaments might be more vulnerable, and what everyday people can actually do to protect themselves.Special perks for our listeners below!🥩 HIGH QUALITY PROTEIN! 🍖 ➢ https://goodlifeproteins.com/ Code POWER to save 20% off site wide, or code POWERPROJECT to save an additional 5% off your Build a Box Subscription!🩸 Get your BLOODWORK/TRT/PEPTIDES! 🩸 ➢ https://marekhealth.com and use code "POWERPROJECT" for 10% off Self-Service Labs and Guided Optimization®.🧠 Methylene Blue: Better Focus, Sleep and Mood 🧠 Use Code POWER10 for 10% off!➢https://troscriptions.com?utm_source=affiliate&ut-m_medium=podcast&ut-m_campaign=MarkBel-I_podcastBest 5 Finger Barefoot Shoes! 👟 ➢ https://Peluva.com/PowerProject Code POWERPROJECT15 to save 15% off Peluva Shoes!Self Explanatory 🍆 ➢ Enlarging Pumps (This really works): https://bit.ly/powerproject1Pumps explained: https://youtu.be/qPG9JXjlhpM?si=JZN09-FakTjoJuaW🚨 The Best Red Light Therapy Devices and Blue Blocking Glasses On The Market! 😎➢https://emr-tek.com/Use code: POWERPROJECT to save 20% off your order!👟 BEST LOOKING AND FUNCTIONING BAREFOOT SHOES 🦶➢https://vivobarefoot.com/powerproject🥶 The Best Cold Plunge Money Can Buy 🥶 ➢ https://thecoldplunge.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save $150!!➢ https://withinyoubrand.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save 15% off supplements!➢ https://markbellslingshot.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save 15% off all gear and apparel!

there's been some controversy over the amount of injuries in the NFL. And some people are now speculating that it has to do with the electromagnetic fields that are around their practice facility and around Levi Stadium where they play their home games. You can clearly see that there is a large substation adjacent to their facility. And that's going to put off a large electromagnetic field. If you have a powerful enough magnetic field on the outside of you, it's going to mess with the smaller magnetic fields inside of you. magnetic fields affect biology.

You're seeing a trend of athletes wearing wired headphones. I got my AirPods pros too. And then you'll hear someone else say you're microwaving your brain. Is that true? Yes, it's 100% true. Florida is a mitochondrial toxin. Do not drink fluorineat. All right, we have David Herrera on the show today.

And David, you know, there's been some controversy over the amount of injuries in the NFL for the last couple years, really. But one particular team is the 49ers. And I've been going to the 49ers games for the last couple years. a huge fan. I know the strength coach very well. But unfortunately, yeah, they've had a lot of injuries. And some people are now speculating that it has to do with the electromagnetic fields

that are around their practice facility and around Levi Stadium where they play their home games. So I was wondering if you can elaborate on this further. And is this woo-woo or could there be something more serious going on? I think there's definitely something very serious going on in terms of just snapping an aerial view of that stadium, you can clearly see that there is a large substation right adjacent to their facility. That's going to have a really large, low-level electromagnetic field probably for a good, I would say, at a minimum, a quarter mile, and I'm underestimating that. Just to kind of back up a little bit, I used to work in the oil field, you know, with high-power

stations and stuff like that and energy supply systems. And there's, just trying to get a little closer than that. They are really powerful, especially when there's a lot of energy transformation going on. When you say energy transformation, what do you mean? So the way the power lines work is they're functioning at a really, really high voltage. And then they have to go into a transformer to get stepped down in order for you to use it for your lights. Right. So this is 120 volts.

And the power line delivering it here is, is probably working at 300,000 volts. Okay. Right. And in order to do that, you have to dissipate that through this transformer, right? And that's going to put off

a large electromagnetic field. Got it. And it's going to be a low level electromagnetic field. And what that means is this is going to pulse at 60 hertz. So 60 pulses per millisecond or whatever that hurts,

you know, pans out. And that's what's called low frequency. So it's a low frequency electromagnetic field. And it's also magnetic. So let me just back up. When we talk about electromagnetic fields, you're actually talking about three different things, right,

because of how physics worked. And that is there is the electric field. And so that's the actual electricity that's being induced upon you and the magnetic field. One clear example of an electric field is wireless charging. That is an electric field.

How do you think electricity gets from a little pad into your phone? It's electrically inducing it. Okay, right? Yeah. So there's more electromagnetic field coming off of that than when your phone is just sitting there by itself. Correct, yeah.

If you just put your phone right here, no electromagnetic field. If there was a charging pad right here, put your phone there. Now there's a large electric field there that's going to charge that battery. Right? And so that's the electric field. And, you know, power lines have an electric field. And they also have a magnetic field, right? So that's 90 degrees to the electric field.

electric field. And the magnetic field does a lot with biology in terms of how your body is going to regenerate, how your body is going to produce energy and all of that because it is a magnetic process of how you deliver oxygen to the mitochondria. Okay. And so if you have a powerful enough magnetic field on the outside of you, it's going to mess with the smaller magnetic fields. inside of you. And so you're not going to have good functioning mitochondria. And that means that you're not going to regenerate very well. If the magnetic field and electric field are strong enough,

you're going to even become slightly dehydrated at the cellular level, which is going to the point of what we're talking about with this football team, which is more than likely they're collagen, tendon ligament systems, which are normally hydrated by the high amounts of mitochondria, them are not able to produce enough cellular water to keep these tendon and ligaments supple and flexible and hydrated. That's not normal hydration now you just get from regular plain water or from having electrolytes

and so forth. No, no, this is cellular water. So if you were to look at a diagram of the electron transport chain into mitochondria, you'll see that there's a distinct section called the electron transport chain, which is four cytocrats, right? And that is,

cytocrine one and two, which are going to process the food, right? That's going to be fats and carbs. And then the other two are transporting that electron over to cytochrome four. And people know this. You get taught this in school, right, in high school and stuff like that, that oxygen goes in there and the electrons come across and then you make CO2, which you breathe out, and water. and then ATP at the fifth cytochrome, which is ATPAs. But that ATPAs is not part of the electron transport chain. A lot of people in their minds, they connect them. But that's where haplotypes come in.

So uncoupled haplotypes and coupled haplotypes means that the electron transport chain directly affects the ATPAs more readily. So it's more coupled. And an uncoupled haplotype means that the ATPAs is more separate. It functions on its own switching mechanism. You would be very coupled, right? More food equals more ATP for you more directly than him, which would be more uncoupled, right?

And basically that has to do with heat production in the body. Okay. Right. And so, you know, Northern Europeans can survive in the cold more easily than people from Africa because they're more uncoupled so that ATP produces infrared light and heat and ATP. just from getting cold without food, right? So it makes it so that you can survive cold,

which would mean no food, very little food, yeah, by just getting cold, right? I'm not saying you can survive on cold alone. I'm saying it's an advantage. And I wanna mention something real quick, you know, people, I think it was a few years back, we asked you about the EMFs with like the eight sleep mattress and you talked to us about that a few years back, right?

Now more and more people like, and even before that, some people have been mentioning it. And people that were talking about are like, there's no research. It's pseudoscience. Now I think recently, Chris Williamson's podcast, because he was sponsored by eight sleep, he was like, well, you know, they mentioned that if you just take the eight sleep thing and put it farther away from your bed, it'll be okay. Now it's starting to get more recognized. So the reason why I'm saying this is like, some people will hear you talking about this and be like, this is bullshit. But it wasn't even eight or nine years ago, people were saying red light therapy is bullshit. Now, every single person's ranting

and raving about red light therapy. So just be mindful, like, yes, you want your BS detectors on, but at the same time, like, be kind of open to this stuff if you're, if you're, you know, some things do come and go, right? Like there's sometimes there's things that come and go. But a lot of times there's things that stick, you know? And so how do you know something's not going to stick? And so if there's just small habits that you can have throughout the day to get yourself away from the electromagnetic fields that are potentially causing negative issues, I don't see, like, it doesn't seem that hard to me, you know, getting your phone out of your room or some of these things.

For some people, sometimes it is difficult. If it's like a doctor or someone that's on call all the time, maybe it's, they have more difficulty figuring some of that out, but they can just get the phone away from their head, right? Put the phone the other side of the room. There's something called a landline. Yeah, there you go. You want us going back to the rotaries, huh? I have a landline.

Yeah. I mean, if you really need to get a hold of me, you can call me on it. Oh, you use a cell phone, though, right? Yeah, I have a cell phone, yeah. In my house, I have a landline, right? Like, you know, kind of like the Matrix. It's the only way you can get out. Right.

I want, were you going to ask something else about this, Mark? Yeah, I wanted to carry on a little bit more about this. Yeah, yeah. Well, I did want, I wanted to, so we talked about the two electric fields, right? And I mentioned there were three. So let me briefly talk about the third one, which is our, RF EMF, right? So the electromagnetic field, there's the field component, and that's going to be RF.

That's going to be microwave frequencies, radio wave frequencies, and those are all the things that he was talking about, which is your cell phone, your Wi-Fi router, your microwave in your house. A lot of people don't know that. Everybody kind of understands that your microwave is kind of dangerous, right?

Or at least they should inertly understand that you don't want to be near it when it's on, right? I think people kind of understand. Well, that's the same frequency coming off your Wi-Fi antenna on your phone or your Wi-Fi router, right? So, yes, it's less powered, but that doesn't mean there's no effect. Yeah. Right. It's not cooking you right now, right?

It's just slow cooking. Yeah. Right. So that's, you know, a lot of the things that I try to teach people is that, okay, you know, you get talking about this type of stuff and it quickly becomes kind of like the seed oil talk. Well, it's everywhere. How am I going to escape it? I'm like, maybe you can't escape all of it, but you can sure as heck minimize it.

Because just like, you know, the whole seed oil talk, maybe for you, the therapeutic dose, you know, as far as like it doesn't, you know, you can live a long, healthy life is just minimal, right? You can minimally interact with it. But if you're heavily interacting with it and it's hurting you, you, because you know the information, can start to figure out how to reduce that, right?

Just like if you're chronically inflamed and your diet is 70% seed oil, you should probably aim to reduce that. And it's not, you know, not zero. You probably won't get there in today's world, but you can get pretty close. What is the term that people use it? Maybe I'm getting it wrong. Would they say like non-radiated EMF or something like that?

Non-ionizing. Non-ionizing. And all that means is that it's not immediately damaging DNA. So in other words, this is that's what people will say, like, oh, it's not, you know, non-iodizing. Yeah, yeah, non-ionizing. Ionizing. And all that means is that, you know,

you expose somebody for a certain amount of time, an hour or whatever, and there is no measurable thing that changed your DNA. So in other words, it didn't hurt your DNA, right? That is non-ionizing, is it. It didn't hurt your DNA. And I'm not saying it does. I'm saying that it changes cellular water networks, right? Coherent domains.

And so a lot of people, let's talk about that a little bit, right? Especially with this whole thing about like, okay, well, how's it affecting tendon ligament stuff? It's making them more dehydrated, right? So more dehydrated, everybody, you know, a little bit of stiffer. You put a little bit too much force through that tendon. Now it can snap more easily, that sort of stuff. But this goes further, right? This goes back to the healing, right?

Because if, you know, these people don't live at the field, they just practice there, right? But if when they go home, they don't do anything to dissipate the electromagnetic field or rehydrate, you know, maybe drinking some deuterium depleted water or anything like that that is going to augment their cellular processes. Their coordination of the biological system for regeneration, which is dictated by circadian mechanisms. Yep. aren't going to function as well, right? Because you've dehydrated the cells inside internally. They didn't make that cellular water like they should have.

And so now the medium that your body is using to communicate. So think of it this way, right? If we are trying to communicate with a space explorer on Mars, the medium we're trying to communicate through is space, right? Well, if your liver or your tend to, and your Achilles is trying to communicate with your brain that it's damaged and it needs extra repair, what is it going to have to communicate through?

Water. Yeah. Right? Your body's 70% water or more or less depending on your age. The medium of communication is water. And so if you're less dehydrated, cellularly speaking, communication starts to fall. Now you get noise.

Yep. Right. So now the brain can't coordinate with, other parts of the body to be able to repair you as quickly or as efficiently. So it's hitting you on two sides. It's direct damage if the field is strong enough. But if the field is weak enough, it could only be affecting water production

and not necessarily physically damaging tendons and ligaments, but because it affected water production, it's physically limiting coherent communication. Yeah. Brian, in the post that was on X, do you mind reading a little bit about what it said? this came from our buddy Andrew Z. He sent this over to me.

Actually, he sent this over to me like a couple weeks back. And then this whole thing just sort of has kind of resurfaced. It's not going away. Yeah, it says the San Francisco 49ers are statistically the most injured team in the NFL over the past decade since moving to Levi's Stadium in 2014. Top five in adjusted games lost for 10 of 11 seasons. 7 to 8 full Achilles Pateler ruptures. 40 plus major hamstrings slash calf tears, high ankle.

syndismosis injuries in every single year. No other franchise comes close. Now, there's a couple things to think about with the 49ers. Number one is they have played really well in the last several years. So they extend their season every year. So they play a little longer season than a lot of the other teams in the NFL because they make the playoffs. They've been in the Super Bowl, I think multiple times since that time period.

So there's other factors. There's other things going on. But, I mean, you know, what are some, are there any measures they could take to like, you know, they have any suggestions for maybe something they could try to do? Yeah, absolutely. So, so one thing I will say, right, EMFs degrade melanin into dopamine, right? So you can actually, like, a stressor means you can rise to the occasion or die trying. right so that's exactly what's going on right here is the people who can't rise to the stressor get injured and the ones that can are fluxing dopamine at an accelerated rate which makes makes them excellent

at coordination excellent at the sport because they're young and melionated and they probably have arrived there uninjured and unencumbered by heavy electromagnetic field or at least significantly less right But if you arrive there already compromised because maybe you live literally in the same city already, right? Then you're going to be more predisposed to an injury. So I'm not saying they can't perform well. I'm saying the highlight of that post, Nails it specifically.

They're looking at dramatically increased injury rate. And that starts to expose the chink and the armor of humans and mammals that electromagnetic fields damage you in a very specific kind of way that is going to make it so that you either feel on fire and are absolutely an animal for a short period of time. And if you can't, you get hurt. And things they could do, right,

if you want to test this theory out, I mean, it's not like they're poor, right? Like a lot of people, you know, that I have to deal with, you know, have budgets. They probably have an infinite budget. Why don't you find a high school or a college that's not next to this thing and make it your permanent practice field

for six months. Your injury rates would be reflected in six months. That's a season, basically. So one season, we only practice there. We'll only have our games, our home games at the home place, and see what your injury report comes back after one season. If this truly is an electromagnetic field problem,

you will notice a change in the trend. Because this is another thing about it. electromagnetic fields. They show themselves immediately when you remove them. In other words, if it is affecting you, the moment you remove it, within two or three months, you will know it. This is stuff you've consulted people on many times. People have had, you've told me about cases that were really severe. And then you just asked someone and said, hey, do you have a little bit of money to like get away and to go somewhere where there's less of these, you know, you don't have a cell tower across the street and they go on vacation for two, three days and they're like,

my sleep was better. Usually two, three weeks. Yeah. So when I say, do you have a little bit? You have me take time. Yeah, it takes some time, right? It's not immediate. Now, some people, right, depending on what it is, for example, we know this from other electromagnetic field study. These are actual studies on single celled organisms, specifically bacteria. We know that electromagnetic fields make them more toxic and make them replicated and accelerated rate. And so if you happen to have a gut problem and I determine that it's an electromagnetic field problem. Yes, what you just stated, in two or three days, you're going to notice a change because the problem is in your gut where all of your major biome is. And so that bacteria is essentially getting angry. It's essentially

getting angry and killing good bacteria, replicating bad bacteria and making it more toxic. You remove that stressor and it starts to equalize pretty quickly because bacteria, you have a high rate of turnover. Yeah, right? And so, yeah, in certain cases, yeah, three or four days will change a lot of the outcome. The last thing I want to mention on this, and we can move on to another topic,

but there's something else unique about that area. That's where the substation is. And you mentioned that the poles that they have for electricity and stuff, a lot of times are using wood because the metal gets eroded by the electric magnetic fields. Is that right?

Yeah, yeah. And so, you know, there could be right like i haven't physically been there to see it but this could be already a known thing is what i'm saying by by the electrician or the power company yeah right because you can't if there's a large amount of electromagnetic field flux going on there uh large enough that it's going to accelerate decay you're not going to be able to use wood in there it's going to or sorry a metal in there because you're going to essentially rust it at a fast pace so you have to use wood and so it's one of the things that you could use to tell if, you know,

because the power company's not going to release this information. You see what I'm saying? Like it's not going to be a thing that you could just go ask them about. They'll know internally that they're not going to tell anybody. There's this right here that Ryan pulled up. I went to the 49ers practice fields with just a gauss meter at 11 a.m. on a quiet Monday with well beyond peak load at red 8.5 milligauce at the far edge of the fields. Inside the facilities, weight room, film room recovery areas,

potentially 10 to 25 milligrams spiking higher during peak grid demand. And then lastly, typical background exposure is 0.5 to 3 miligals. So what does this tell you? It has a very high magnetic field. Okay, right? So that's why I opened with,

there's three magnetic fields, RF, which is cell phones, Wi-Fi, all the communication stuff. And then there's the electric, you know, charging your phone electrically or wirelessly. And then there's the magnetic field. And magnetic fields affect by a, biology by far the fastest and quickest and to the greatest extent.

That right there is a very large electromagnetic field, very large. If he tested that, right, and I believe him, right? I'm not, you know, I'm not going to go there and do the test if I don't have to. But the background, right now, that's, I want to focus on this, the background, typical stuff of 0.5 to 3 milligram. That's just like normal living in a city. Yeah, which is still high, by the way. You won't like if there are studies outside of America on all of this stuff.

One of them is coming from Canada. The recommended milligouse is 0.5 or less. Jeez. For for your bedroom, right? Because again, if there's any place where you should strive to make it zero, your bedroom, it should be your bedroom because that's where you recover. Yeah. Right.

Yeah. So that's how they have come up with a recommendation. says, hey, in your bedroom, this is where it should be, where we really haven't been able to pick up biological effects at these levels. It doesn't mean that there is zero. It means that we can't really measure them. That's already a plus. If you can't, you know, even with the greatest equipment that you have right now,

if you can't measure a change quite yet, you must, you know, absent of a result doesn't mean there's no result, right? So you can't assume that, oh, nothing's happening, but we can't see it. So at least you should strive to get to there. And at least do it in the bedroom. Got it. Now, I actually gave Ryan a video because I want us to kind of talk about a little bit more about this EMF stuff.

Because you start seeing a lot of athletes. You're seeing a trend of athletes wearing wired headphones. And, you know, I got my AirPods pro too and I'm wearing it on the plane. But then when I'm wearing it, I'm thinking about David would tell me some shit about this. Right. And you also like people will ask these questions to other professionals, PhDs. et cetera, and they'll say, it's so minimal, it doesn't even matter.

It won't make any type of difference. And then you'll hear someone else say, you're microwaving your brain. So what should people be thinking about when it comes to this and why are these athletes starting to do that? Well, they've probably consulted with somebody kind of like me, number one, right?

Not necessarily me, but people that know enough to say what you just said, you're microwaving your brain. Is that true? Yes, it's 100% true. Now, the real, the noise can't, Is it on popcorn mode or like that's what I'm saying right? It is the same frequency as a microwave. So the wording, your microwaving your brain is 100% accurate.

It is a microwave going through your brain. And then it's so minimal that it shouldn't matter. But what if you're using it for four or five hours a day? I did that this past week. Right, that's what I'm saying. And you do that every day or every other day, right? You see what I'm saying? Like immediately.

I say the less you use it, the less offensive it is, right? Yeah, and should you strive to go to zero? Maybe you can, maybe you can't. If you have symptoms, and certainly, right? Exactly. You have migraines or you have some sort of. Or it's how you make your living. Right?

Like, okay, we're talking about the athletes, right? Yeah. Okay, football players, headsets in the helmets, et cetera, right? So their living means that they got to keep their brain on and functioning 100% the moment. they're on the field, right? So why would you go out of your way to erase? They're not going to get away from that in their helmet.

You see, they can't go to their boss and be like, hey, I don't want that in my helmet. So they can't go to zero. Physically impossible. It's part of their job. Yeah.

Right. So now, but they've been told the information, right? Just like I opened the podcast of, okay, you know the information now. What do you want to do about it? Like, well,

I should probably reduce it everywhere else that I can so that, when I have to use it, I can exploit it and not let it exploit me. And this has been well known for a long time too, right? Like with electricians and various people that work on power lines and stuff, they have issued clothing that protects them. And I realize that what they're working on is way more powerful probably than the cell phone or the microwave.

And so, of course, it makes sense that they would have that immediate protection. But these are things that have been around for a while. Oh yeah, yeah. I mean, we've had electricity for 100 years plus now, right? And, you know, actively, you know, power companies, right, hiring hundreds and thousands of people to, you know, put power stations everywhere all over the country. And the companies, you know, give you standard PPE, you know, protective equipment. And that's mainly FR stuff, right? But they also have to hire electrical engineers. They also have to hire, you know, every, you know, every form of I'm just a journeyman electrician just starting out to a full-fledged you know PhD electrical engineer yeah there's some really smart people that know electricity way better than the power company right and they you know I don't if I'm working with you I don't want you to die I don't I want you provide you with as much life-saving information with something that you're working with every day that's

dangerous yes right and so through the chain i wouldn't say like the official statement right because it's not but from the official people that know to other people on that same job they know i like hey you know you know we work around electricity every day for 12 hours a day this is going to affect you negatively in your life at some point you're going to be more predisposed to cancer outcomes we know that some of this stuff is affecting us in a way that the first time i heard about Deuterium depleted water wasn't about, it wasn't from Jack Cruz. It was from electricians, old electricians.

Oh. That knew, hey, you know, maybe drinking some Deuterium depleted water every now and then or, you know, 16 ounces, you know, while you're here at work every day, it's probably not going to be a bad thing, right? And even going as far as, hey, you know, if you have some money on the side, you should buy yourself some better protective equipment. I'm like, well, what do you mean? They're giving us FR and all of that.

They're like, no, no, no, no, we're talking about. you know shielding clothing like silver lace shielding clothing or gold lace shielding clothing stuff that actually keeps the electromagnetic field on the outside of your body and doesn't penetrate you right that again not official statement from the power company yeah it's official statement from the electrical engineer that i happen to be working with in that in that group or that team right and it's because they're really damn smart right and you know if they go and tell you know their boss about it and then their boss tells the CEO about it. Well, the first thing they're going to do is, well, is this guy a problem? Well, no. And if he is a problem, let's fire him. Because we don't,

we don't want that to get out. We're in the job of providing electricity and making sure, making sure that it's safe, right? Keeping our workers safe. Right, right. Yeah, you see what I'm saying, like, are they going to, is you going to die next year? You know, and I, there's the saying, right, electromagnetic fields and stuff like that, they don't kill you today. They kill you 10 years from now. So just last question for me on this. When it comes to the headphone thing, let's say somebody is using it chronically. As majority of people that own wireless headphones are,

they're using it all the time when they're working at the coffee shop, et cetera. What is the simply put, so a way that people can understand, what is like the potential long-term ramification of like 10, 20, 30, 40 years of use? Potentially, you know, take it to the final thought, a brain cancer.

Okay, right? 10, 20 years of use. I mean, I don't think you make it the 20 years of use. Really? Yeah, I think it's things. Well, these wireless headphones are fairly like, if we're thinking about a phenomenal.

What about young kids? Yeah, they have it in their ear all the time. Yeah, yeah. So here's what I'm going to say about specifically about this, right? You won't make it to five or six years of consistent six hour use every day. There will be something that happens, right? So endpoint is you get a brain cancer, right? Do I think that's just, that's what's going to happen?

No, there's going to be things. way before that, right? And things like brain fog, things like blood sugar dysregulation. Been a huge uptick in, I don't know how to say the word tinnitus, I think it is. Yeah, that's exactly. It's like a buzzing in your ear. Yeah, buzzing in your ear. The reason for that is what I stated earlier, which is electromagnetic fields demelionate you, right?

So what is tinnitus? Tinnitus is your cochlea being demelionated. Okay. Now when you go to the doctor, he's not going to tell you that. other than, you've damaged your earring and you know you're going to have this hearing. It's basically like kind of bleaching it. It's exactly what it's.

Yeah. It's bleaching it. Now, if you don't believe me that it's bleaching it, just put a stake in the microwave and tell me what color it is when it comes out. Yeah, that's not a good looking steak. No, it looks gray because any melanin in there got degraded. Now, is that a bad thing?

Well, long term it is, but that's why I stated right, like the 49ers, right? they may be getting a kind of a benefit training where they train because anybody that can survive the injury rate is going to be an animal because they're depleting melanin at an extraordinary rate. And melanin gets turned into byproducts that eventually turn into dopamine and adrenaline and noradrenaline, right? All the coordination and activity hormones. Kind of like a superhero. Basically, right? That's what I'm saying. Like people think everything, right? Even the bad things have another, you know, there's a heads and tails to everything, right?

Even the bad things have a positive spin on them. And even the positive things like glutathione use and things have a negative spin to things. It always, always is that. It never, ever can be one thing. Tell us a little bit more about Deuterium depleted water. I think it can be pretty expensive. But the good news is for somebody to make some changes if they're just drinking it here and there, a couple ounces, I think a day can really be helpful.

Like, for example, that light water that's on the table that I got for you, I want to say that that thing's like 11 or maybe even like 16 bucks or something like that. There are cheaper brands, but it's not inexpensive. And it's a glass bottle that had delivered to my house. So it's like, okay, well, of course there's going to be a charge for it. Yeah, this is by far the most expensive brand. It's by far the most luxurious brand because they do offer it in a glass bottle. everybody else is going to sell it on a plastic bottle.

But, you know, I'm going to tell you right now, especially with plastic, microplastics, right? Good sauna, good sweating. You can get rid of that type of stuff easy. So, you know, being scared of drinking cheaper deterrent depleted water because of plastic bottles, if you're doing other things correctly, it doesn't really matter. But the deuterium depleted water itself is very valuable

because this could also be an intervention for the 49ers, right? Supply, everybody with some deterium depleted water. One liter every day. is enough to deplete, go ahead. I just typed into Deuterre depleted water on Amazon because I was like, okay, it's expensive, how expensive? I mean, I don't know if this is legitimately the cost eight pack for $430.

Oh, what brand is that? This brand is, oh, it's light water. That's what I'm saying. That's the most expensive one, right? That's what I'm saying. You can get about that much water for half that price. Okay, okay. From other brands, but that's what I'm saying.

This is the bougiest water on the planet. Yeah. Yeah, I know like I think Ron and Charles Brooke, they were going back and forth. And they found a very inexpensive brand, but I don't remember what it was. Do you remember what the brand was? Keep it to yourself.

Yeah. Tell me after. No, I'm joking. If you know the brand, share it. So I think the brand that you're referring to because you might have sent me the link is drink Adams. I think drink Adams. Now the problem is they are advertising it

for a cheap price. it's still on pre-order and it's been a year. Oh, okay. So can they deliver on that price? As of right now, they haven't. Shout out to Charles Brooke, by the way because I think he's like, is figuring out a way to make some of his own

or something like that. I want to know when he does. Because he's got some sort of like nanobble thing or something. I don't know. He's crazy. I don't know what the hell he's got going on. Yeah. So back to the water, right?

As far as an intervention, because of the dehydration effect happening at the mitochondrial level, the mitochondrial water that's being produced or not being produced, I should say, is deuterium depleted. Can you reintroduce that into the body? Right. If you drink enough of it, yeah,

like you mentioned Ron, right? He reported back being, you know, he had changes. He had like the legit changes that he saw. Yeah, quite a few physiological changes in terms of relationship to dieting and training and still being able to train like he was, you know, an animal. And from people who don't know who Ron is,

he was the former CEO of Quest Nutrition, and he owns what's legendary? Legendary foods. Yeah. And, you know, for a healthy person, right, again, Ron is not these football players being interacted with by electromagnetic fields, but even for a normal person,

now he went all out. He only drank Deuterium depleted water. So he was drinking at least two of these every day, right? And in 21 days, right? So that's three weeks. He was noticing significant changes on VO2 max, significant changes on his, and all in a calorie deficit, right?

Jesus. And I think a nitric oxide or something like that too, right? Yeah, yeah, and changes in nitric oxide production and all of that type of thing. And the reason is because, oh, he was also measuring the deteriorium in his body, right? Right, that's what I'm saying. In 21 days, so it happened really fast for him,

but he only drank this water. Yeah. In 21 days, he was fully deuterium depleted in his body. He measured saliva swab. You can test how much deteriorium is, currently in your body. And so normal people are right around 140 to 150. That's not ideal, actually.

Ideal is like 120. Now, you'll notice here that says 10. This is only 10 parts per million. It's really Deuterium depleted. And that's what he was drinking. And he got his body down to 100, right? Which is actually like ideal biological functioning. Like say you're not, you know,

you live somewhere out in the middle of nowhere. And you just, you know, our farmer or rancher. you're probably walking around with a deuterum level of like 122, 120, something like that, right? And he got his way below that with this. And what it does, right, let's talk about what it does and why the body uses it versus normal water, right? Because normal water is about 150 parts per million.

Okay. Right, and this is 10 parts per million. And the water that your body makes, depending on whether you're eating a lot more fat, that's coming from ruminants, so anything with more than one stomach, those fats are going to be more deterioram depleted somewhere closer to like 110 parts per million

or 100 parts per million. And so the further away from the equator you get, the natural water cycle of the earth depletes the water in that area. So for example, I live in Wyoming and I have a well. The well naturally in my area is at 130 parts per million. So that's like just barely,

10 parts higher than optimal, right? So just drinking my normal well water already gives me an advantage to somebody who drinks 150 part per million tap water. Yeah, right? But that's only water that's coming from the aquifer that's been deterrent depleted through the water cycle of the planet, right?

The snow falling, filtering, et cetera, getting into the aquifer, all of that. The natural processes of how water gets into the aquifers in the ground naturally depletes that water the further you get away from the... Because you have less sun, right? So, okay, so this relates, everything intertwines, right?

So let me explain how metabolism, right? The reason why this type of water is being used is to keep metabolism running appropriately. Metabolism can be ran at an accelerated rate with good sun. That can be reflected anecdotally, like when you go to a really sunny place and you spend a lot of time outside and you don't need food that much.

Dude, that's what, yeah, exactly. That's what happens to me in the summer. Right, right. But you spend a lot of time outside. That's not normal for people, right? In today's world, the average amount of time outside for the average person is somewhere between 20 and 30 minutes. And it's usually not midday.

Midday, right? But just like you said, in the summer, you tend to be able to eat almost, you don't lose weight, or if you do, it's minimal. You have plenty of energy and somehow you're eating less food. Chalk that up to the calories in, calories out crowd, right? Now, the reason is because metabolism can be heightened when you have strong sun,

because Strong Sun has a lot of infrared that keeps the ATP spinning and it facilitates more electron transport. And if you have more electron transport, do you have that diagram of the electron transport chain? Yes, right here.

Yeah, just click on the one with the black letters there. Yeah. So right there, right at Citrochrome 4, the pink one, that one is where water production. is going to happen. You can see that H2O right there, the little arrow that's pointing down towards the green one there. That is where it's going to happen. And that cytochrome 4 is very, very sensitive to infrared light. And so it's going to augment water production and the ATP, so the green thing right next to it that makes ATP, it's also very sensitive to infrared light. It's a motor.

It's actually spinning. And basically when there's infrared light, you are going to make a lot of cellular water, this Deuterium depleted water, and because Deuterium is lighter than, sorry, deuterium is heavier than proteum. The way that I use methylene blue is very similar the way that you're using it. I don't use it every day. I think things that push that button to change your mood, you might want to be a little cautious with it. In my opinion, and the feelings that I get from Methylene Blue, it does change my mood a little bit. It's a mood enhancer. When I go out and run, I feel like I do have a little bit more endurance. I do feel like I can breathe a little bit better, but that could also be, I've been training very hard as well. So it could be an adaptation to that as well.

But as we've had, you know, David Herrera and many other people have come on the show before, they basically just say methylene blue is a electron donor and it allows the body to utilize energy just more efficiently. And I don't know if I can feel that per se, but I know that I feel better when I'm running when I'm using methyling blue. Yeah, post sessions of grappling. That's That's what I usually use. I use it two or three times a week, post sessions jiu-jitsu. I always feel like I have more energy, like much more energy than I typically have. Which makes me understand that if I did want to go for longer sessions, I could. But it also helps me understand that I'm going to be recovering better for my next session the next day, which is a big deal. But yeah, I think that if you guys, first off, this stuff is great because it's third party tested. Methylene Blue in other sources like the stuff that you'll see on Amazon or like random websites, there's no. regulation. So a lot of people have levels of toxicity from the supplement because it's not dosed correctly. And there are other things in that methylene blue. Again, this is something that is lab made. It's not, you know what I mean? So you got to be careful. And this is why we like using

this stuff because we know it's not going to mess us up. You can go on their website. You can go on the transcriptions website and you can get a report of the third party tested methylene blue and double triple check it for yourself. In addition to that, they have the canatine. And, which I have not used that much, but when I have used it pre-workout, I did notice I get a zip from it. It has, I think it has nicotine in it, along with a couple other things

to go along with the methylene blue. So do yourselves a favor, check out transcriptions, check out what they got. Strength is never weak this week, this never strength. Catch you guys later. So basically there are two hydrogen molecules on this planet. There's a third one, but that's radioactive and it's only man-made.

Yeah. Okay, but basically you're talking about proteum, which is just one electron and one proton. And then there's deuterium. And it's an electron, a proton, and a neutron in the middle. It's twice as heavy. Okay, okay. Okay?

Yes. So if you have Earth and it's got a specific gravity pull and you all of a sudden make it twice as big, more gravity pull. Yeah. Right? So if all of these atoms, you know, because we're talking at the atomic level right here, right?

If all of these atoms all of a sudden are being flooded with cellular water that's twice as gravitationally pulling, what is it going to do? It's going to slow down everything because now you have to fight more gravity. Right. So when there's lots of deuterium depleted water being made, now all of a sudden that motor can spin faster because it's not being bound. It's not being gravitationally held. So now all of a sudden, more ATP, more water, you feel great, you don't need as many electrons coming from NADH or FADH, which is carbs and fats.

You can eat less food, same energy output, same level of focus, same level of feeling good, as if in the winter when you get less sun, now you need a little more food to accomplish the same thing. Yeah. Right. And that is why the body always wants to keep the deuterium content in the cells at a specific amount, and it's usually lower than the water outside

because fats are also deuterium depleted. Okay. Because they've already gone through another animal, right? And they have the same cellular process, right? And so they're immediately depositing fats on their body that can be used later, right? Everybody kind of understands fats are for the body to use at a later time, right?

But if you're already going to go through the process of metabolism, you might as well make it deteriorate depleted so that when you do use it later, you don't have to do that process again. So fats from animals already come deteriorate repleted, which then that kind of dovetails into the whole seed oil thing, right? Is, you know, inflammatory process with seed oils and stuff like that is because plants don't deterrent deplete nearly as much.

So this would be another way that someone can, if they are around a lot of non-native EMF, they can sort of detox themselves with deterium depleted water. And another method would be exactly what you're talking about here, right? And for people that aren't clear, that means shifting your diet to having more deterium depleted food sources. And that's mainly going to be animal fats. Animal fats.

And the animals that do it the best are the animals that have to be in the cold all the time. Right? Those are going to have more omega-3 fatty acids in them. How did we get a polar bear meat? Yeah, yeah. Or cold water fish. Like that's cheap, right? That's super cheap.

Yeah. Cold water fish. High amounts of DHA, omega-3s, and DHAs have a lot of electrons, right? And so basically fats that have more electrons, by default, if they're coming from an animal, are also going to have lower deteriorium content, right? I'm still eating my oysters.

Yeah, yeah. And so your recommendation a couple years ago? Yeah, I eat a lot. By the way, actually, I'm curious. What are your thoughts on like the Costco oysters that are in that, uh, what are your, because I, I eat those a lot. If they're in olive oil, I'm okay. They're not in olive oil.

They're in like, I think they're, I think they're in water. If they're in water, they're perfect. Oh, okay, cool. If they're in water, totally fine. Okay. But it's hard to find things that are not in oil these days. Sometimes they can be in seed oils, but not normally oysters. Yeah, the oysters from Costco are in water.

Okay, perfect. Yeah, but like sardines usually are packed in some kind of oil or something like that. I eat sardines all the time. Yeah. So I just make sure it's olive oil and not. Yeah. And not. Alib oil.

Yeah. As long as it's olive oil, because again, when I say seed oils, I want to be very specific. I'm talking specifically about linoleic acid. Okay. Right. So you can just look up, you know, say, you know, sunflower oil or soybean oil. And you can just ask, you know, these days, chat, GPT or whatever, what's the linoleic acid content of this oil? And if it's greater than 10 or 12 percent or, you know, maybe max 20 percent, you should probably limit it.

It should be kind of the whole EMF carbon. If you can get it to zero, good for you. And if you can, you should get as low as you can. Yeah. You know, since we're talking about water as is, deterrent depleted water is expensive. We talked about deterrent depleted foods, which people can figure that out. What other aspects of, because like, you know, you got a lot of people talking about shifting the whole water in their household, changing all of that type of stuff. What do you do at your place when it comes to your water outside of the Deuterium Depleted Water that you drink. Right.

So again, this is, you know, because I've been able to construct my life in such a way that, you know, I can live where I want to live, that I know these things, right? I've been able to kind of dovetel all of it together. So I live in a place that's very rural. There's only like 200 people total. Okay. Right. And rules, because there's so little people are kind of, there is kind of like municipal water,

but you can drill your own well. You just got to pay for it. Right? I'm like, okay, what are some other things outside of this expensive deteriorating depleted water? Drill your own well. I know, I keep going on. So, you know, I don't know how much it costs you for municipal water here.

And not that you could do it in the middle of the, you know, Sacramento or whatever, right? But what I'm saying is, okay, it costs me 15 grand to drill a well. I never have to pay for water again. That's awesome. Forever. That is awesome. Right.

And that water is coming from an aquifer about, you know, 300 feet in the ground or more. And, you know, I got it tested, you know, because I wanted to make sure, you know, before I drank it, they didn't have bacteria and stuff in it. You know, all the normal stuff that normal people would test it for. And at the same time, I got it tested for deterium as well. And so my came back at 130 parts per million, which is really good. Yeah. And, you know, nothing really in it other than, you know, heavy sediments, right?

Sand and stuff. Yeah, yeah. And so I have just a sand filter and particle filter in my house that filters the water for my drinking. And other than that, that's all I do for my water. Okay. Right. Like that's it. Yeah.

Because of where I was able to place my home. Okay. Now, for a normal person, right, that's not going to be able to do that. Me. Right. The first thing that I would say, you know, before we even talk about deter and repleteer, because you're probably not going to be able to change that other than buying deter and depleted water and adding it. at the minimum that you can, right?

16 ounces a day at the, you know, because like I said, if there's another company called hydro health or something like that, they sell pretty decently priced deterium depleted water. I think for 16 ounces a day, every day, you would pay maybe like 200 bucks. Okay. It's not cheap.

Yeah. That's an expensive supplement. But at 16 ounces a day and you do that for as long as you can afford it, Yeah, that's a game changer, especially for a high-end athlete or somebody that has, you know, cancer or something like that. Like it's a thing that I would spend money on is what I'm saying. Now, other than that, your actual water that you're going to drink the rest of the, you know, for the rest of the water that you drink for the day,

number one, make sure it's not fluorinated. Okay. That's number one, right? We know this now. This is not debatable. This actually has passed laws in several states that, that they're removing the fluorination capabilities of their facilities and all that. There's at least eight states that are,

now currently rebamping that whole thing and removing fluoride from being put into water because it is a mitochondrial toxin. If you go back to that mitochondria transport chain, I'll explain it really quick as far as why fluoride is a mitochondrial toxin. It is more electronegative than oxygen. oxygen is the second most electronegative molecule on the periodic table and fluoride is the number one. So what does that mean? Remember how I said there's electromagnetic fields in your body and that's what dictates a lot of these things? Well, one of the main electromagnetic fields is that ATPAs. Anything that spins makes an electromagnetic field, right?

So think about it this one. There's a reason why it's constructed in that way. The green one right there is spinning. That's the ATPAs. That means that there's going to be an electromagnetic field. You see the arrows at the bottom and at the top, how they're curved. Yes. That's an electromagnetic field.

If you just drew those semicircles all the way around and made the top ones meet the bottom ones, you've essentially drawn an electromagnetic field. Right? And where is it going to intersect next to that pink one? That semicircle is going to intersect really close to that pink one. That's an electromagnetic field that's going to draw oxygen because it's electronegative. And this is a positive. It's going to boop, right? It's gonna bring it right where it's supposed to become.

Yeah. Well, what is more electrogenebative than oxygen? Fluoride, but it's twice as big. Okay. So now it's gonna clog all of that up. Now you're not gonna make cellular water because fluoride's not oxygen. So now you've dehydrated yourself

and you've clogged up the mechanisms that make this all happen. Yeah. Fluoride is mitochondrial toxin. Right, so that's the number one. thing for your normal water. Do not drink fluorineate water. I think you may have recommended it to me. It was something that you and I chatted about. I ordered a filter. It's called Ikin, I think it is. I, K-I-N. That's one that I have that I use. And it wasn't, you know, I want to say it was like

five, six hundred bucks. Yeah. And I use it all the time and I just take tap water, dump it in there. And then it filters it out. And it does four different things. One of the things was it does get rid of fluoride. Yeah, people have known about this for a long time. It's just taken this long to be recognized by the powers to be that, hey, you know, we can't hide it anymore. This is a mitochondrial toxin and, you know, lots overwhelming evidence and overwhelming people have, you know, signed petitions for decades now, probably. Yeah. That fluoride needs to be removed. And if something is filtering your water, sometimes people talk about remineralizing your water, right? And I mean, that's not necessarily good or bad,

as long as you're not adding fluoride to it, right? As long as you're not doing that, right? Like adding in, you know, potassium, sodium, ions, all of those types of things back. Especially if you do like RO water, right? Because that eliminates a lot of them or drink distilled water, right? Then, yeah, you're going to want electrolytes back in your water, right?

You know, that's depending on whether you're a performance person or not, that there's variations on how much, right? So ditching the fluoride. What else can we do with our water? But by the way, what's the name of that filter? Like the I can't, how do you spell it? I think it's K-I-K-I-N, I think. Yeah.

There is a lot of them. What I'm saying is this, you know, finding the special filter for the fluoride. There's literally hundreds of them. Okay. But all you've got to do is make sure that they say specifically that they filter fluoride. Because this has been a known thing for decades now, this is actually pretty good technology.

This is a known thing and filter companies know this and they cater to that, you know, to that. Yeah. Yeah, that looks like what I got pretty much. Yeah. Yeah. And so, yeah, all you need to do is. And then it puts like, I think, hydrogen back in the water or something. Yeah.

Some of them get a little bit fancier, you know, and they want to, you know, say, you know, they add hydrogen back in it. That type of stuff, if you could just, you know, if you can get something. cheaper and it doesn't have that, it's fine because it's not doing anything. Right. Like it's, and that's why I'm glad that you brought that up. You know, there's the whole craze right now of like hydrogen tablets and all that. Well, guess what? They're missing this whole subject.

I've asked every single one of the popular companies about, you know, hydrogen tablets. Very first thing, you know, because I have clients and everything. Hey, what do you think of the hydrogen tablets? What do you think of this hydrogen stimulator bottle, you know, that you press the button and it hydrogenizes your water and all that. And then I email every company and I go, what's the deteriorant content of your hydrogen that you're using in your tablets? I have yet to get an answer back from any of them, which tells me one of two things. They either don't know, don't want to look stupid, or they do know, and they know that I know this, right?

Because it's not the hydrogen. It's what type of hydrogen? Okay. So those hydrogen water bottles that are like doing the thing when you press the, You don't think they're doing anything beneficial? You pour this in it and now the height, look, this is what's going on. It's electrolysis and they're taking the H out of the H2O

and they're suspending it. Right? If you put deterium depleted water in it, then the hydrogen that comes off of it is, is the proteome, is the terium depleted. Yeah. If you put normal water in there, you didn't change the type of hydrogen,

you just put it in a different form. Okay, so now you, so people are wasting their money if they get those bottles. Yeah, or even worse, so they get the tablets, right? So now you can take perfectly good water, right? You know about this and you're drinking this and you're like, oh, I'm gonna add a hydrogen tablet to it, right? And the hydrogen tablet's 150 parts per million hydrogen.

So now you've taken a 10 parts per billion hydrogen and you put some tablets in there or a bunch of them because you think more is better and now you've raised the parts per million from 10, which is excellent, to maybe 100. Wow. Because you're not paying attention to the, the type of hydrogen.

It matters the most. Proteum is light hydrogen. That's what this mainly has. And deuterium is heavy hydrogen. It has that extra neutron molecule in there. And that slows down metabolism. So just, you know, because these people that are selling you this,

they're not actually lying, right? They're telling you all these studies about hydrogen and all that. And then when you go looking at them, the study that show effect actively are talking about deuterium versus proteum. Okay. And they just go, oh, this is just hydrogen.

Okay. Well, there's a reason why there's two names. They're different. Know the difference. So now, again, I want to make clarification. Because so many companies now have hydrogen water bottles. All of that doesn't matter. Not unless you can prove to me that it's got less deuterium in at the normal drinking

water. Gotcha. Okay. Yep. Thomas Dillauer had a video recently where he was talking about a couple things that could really move the needle for like insulin resistance. And it was really interesting. And he talked about some studies for apple cider vinegar. And, you know, I think it's great that Thomas has been researching so many of these things for so many years.

And he sticks to the science. But if you notice, he's been evolving and he's been moving a little bit towards the red light stuff. He's been moving towards stuff that, again, people years ago thought were woo-woo, but now they're becoming more and more. There's more and more science to back up a lot of these things. But he was talking a lot about grounding and the benefits of grounding. And so since we already talked a lot about magnetism, we hit a bunch up on water. Let's kind of end this podcast talking about magnetism.

And for everybody listening, we're doing multiple podcasts with David. So make sure you tune into every podcast that we do with him because we're covering all kinds of grounds. light cycles, dark cycles. The next podcast we'll do, we'll talk about light. But anyway, if you can kind of clarify on that. Yeah, so grounding and magnetism, right? So let's talk about this subject. Let's forget about the modern stuff

that we've been talking about and just pretend you're a caveman, right? And so every morning you're going to get up, you're going to come outside of your cave or outside of your tent or whatever your shelter is. and you're going to be wearing natural materials, right? You're going to be wearing fur or your cotton or linen, right? Or nothing. Or nothing, right?

I know. But more than likely if you're going to be wearing something, right? People, again, I don't want to, I would be totally okay if you're completely naked. That's what I'm saying. Like, that's kind of my standard. But that's unrealistic for people. Yes, yes, yes. But I mentioned the natural materials because they all do.

the same thing, which is they naturally ground you, right? You're grounded to the ground. Why is that important? Because of the electric effect, right? The photoelectric effect by Einstein, right, dictates that you must have electrons in order to accept electrons, right? We're talking, and I know the next podcast is going to be about light, but we're talking about how the body functions with electromagnetic fields and all that. Well, that's part of the photoelectric effect, right? There is electricity coming from the sun. That's how solar panels make electricity. The reason they make electricity is because they have materials

and then they have a lot of electrons. And when electrons from the sunlight hits them, the electrons get excited and then they drop down. That makes energy, makes electricity. You are exploiting that right now. And the biggest thing that exploits that is melanin, right? Melanin has a lot of electrons. And I can accept a lot of,

photoelectric energy. That is a circuit that you're making, right? The negative is the planet. The positive is the sun, right? Anode and a cathode. Okay. Right? If you talk a battery.

What does that mean? Oh, like a battery? Yeah, a car battery, right? I got you. Yeah, car battery has an anode and has a cathode. Mainly it's going to be, you know, two dissimilar metals. So one has more electrons than the other, and the electrons flow in one direction, right? So in this battery that we're talking about,

really big battery. I feel like I'm a little kid all the time when I'm around David. What's that mean? What's that? Is going to be, right? The earth is a major source of electrons. So is water.

So basically everything that you can touch on the planet that's not manmade gives you free electrons. And if you can make that connection better, bare feet or natural materials on your feet, then you're going to now make a proper connection to the negative. And now the positive is just the sun. So as long as your skin is not being blocked by synthetic clothing,

then you're going to induce this photoelectric effect and you're going to get a lot of free electrons and a lot of capabilities to assimilate UV light and infrared light without getting burned. Right? So think of it this way. that's a lot of energy coming from the sun. If you aren't capable of either, how would I say,

dispersing it or dissipating it, that's probably a better word, then you're going to get burned. That's heat that's stuck on the surface. But what if you can prevent that from happening by two things, right? If I put a bunch of water on you, probably not going to burn very easily. or if I cool you down,

you're not gonna burn very easy because a sunburn is in the word, it is a burn, right? Now people think that just sunlight, strong sunlight, you're gonna get burned. The answer is there are lots of variables that dictate whether you're gonna get burned. Not just there is sunlight, I'm gonna get burned, right?

One of them is the temperature outside. If it's really cold, it's gonna take a lot more sun to burn you. Yeah. Which can also be kind of dangerous, because there's like a, you know, being pale, being white, there's like a regulation in your body of like, you feel that warmth from the sun, you feel that heat.

Yeah, you feel that heat and you're like, I think I'm like getting fucked up from the sun right now. And you kind of feel it. But when it's colder out, it takes way longer to feel it. And then a lot of times people get burned. They go on a hike in Tahoe or something like that where there's high altitude and high UV and they get like smoked because they didn't,

but they were out there for a long time to your point. Yeah, yeah. And so again, just like training, right, if you, again, because this is all passive, these are all called hormetic stressors, right? You don't really have, you don't do much thinking about it stressing you, right? So you can quickly overdo it, especially if you've never trained yourself. So I refer it to like, you know, if you've never trained biceps in your life and I ask you to do a hundred bicep curls, you're going to hate me the next day. Oh, yeah. Right. That's too much. Right. Yeah. But. If I asked you to do 10, a tenth of the amount,

and over the course of three months, you work up to 100 reps, you're going to get a big bicep. Right? It's the same thing with your skin. If you are pale and never go outside or always cover up or always use sunscreen, yeah, I'm not going to tell you to go outside for an hour. I'm going to tell you to go outside for 10 minutes, right? Go for 10 minutes.

And you can visibly see this. You want to get to the point where you're just barely turning pink. Now, if you're, you know, darker skin and stuff, that's going to be a little bit harder to tell. But you have an advantage. You already have the melanin on the outside that can absorb a lot of energy. So you already aren't really the cohort that I'm talking to, right?

But, you know, most people that are really pale or whatever, but I've seen African Americans that are pretty pale. Oh, no, absolutely. You know, this is the thing. I think when people think about melanin and my grandmother, by the way, was a few shades lighter than, little shades darker than Mark, just slightly darker than Mark.

But when she got in the sunlight, she can tan a lot. And I'm talking about my other grandmother, my dad's side, right? So there can be a lot of shades, but the thing is, is those people that are lighter skinned, they can get a lot darker when they get into more sunlight. So, you know, it's just something to think about. Yeah, yeah. And so,

so the grounding is also a way to prevent the sunburn, right? Because now, going back to dissipating that in, You don't want the energy to just hang out on the outside of you. So grounding is a fundamental part of making that electrical conductivity very easy to dissipate the excess energy you can't use. You can use way more energy than he can just by the color of your skin, right? The melanin that's on the outside of you. So that means as long as you're grounded and he's grounded, your body's going to regulate how much it takes. and whatever it can't gets dissipated to the ground.

He's going to dissipate more than you because he's a different color than you, right? Because he's, if he's grounded. This sounds totally racist, by the way. But you're also going to absorb more vitamin D quicker than I will. I need to spend more time in the sun to get that amount. I'm glad you brought that up. Because see, he, right,

you say you both walk outside, you're both grounded. He's going to make his quota in about 30 to 40 minutes. You're going to need to spend four hours. Yep. Right. So you're saying that we need to mate. You're stupid. But technically like mixed kids.

They do. They have an advantage because usually they can exploit advantages and disadvantages of both, especially if they happen to get the right mixture of the genes, right, where their skin is light but can get really dark. Uh-huh. So now they get vitamin D production. And again, this is, this is flat out, you know, evolution, right?

That's flat out evolution, right? The environment that you reproduce in starts to get very dark. I remember like when you first came to it. Yeah, I'm actually kind of pale right now, but it's wintertime where I live, right? And but the moment I start getting lots of sun, I get really dark. I get really dark.

You know, when I was building my house or when I came back from El Salvador, I was at least three. This is probably the palest I've been in a long time. We haven't had any freaking sunlight. Same here. Like I can't wait for more sun. I want to fucking darken up.

We're dying over here. But point being is that is the key component of grounding, is that it does that, right? Now, another key component of grounding, I want to touch on this because this relates to electromagnetic fields, which is grounding pads indoors and grounding sheets and all of that.

Here's the thing. Just like I mentioned, that when you're grounded outside, you are now a better antenna for the cathode, which is the sun. If you are grounded indoors, you're now a better antenna for any electric fields inside.

Inside. You see what I mean? So grounding indoors can be beneficial, but you must verify that your environment isn't giving you a non-native electromagnetic field. Like, for example, would I tell the 49ers that, you know, they need to ground their field and everybody needs to be walking barefoot on that field? No, because there's a large magnetic field

sitting right next to them that's now going to be more attracted to them. Right. So that's a key part with the whole grounding thing because there's the whole craze of grounding sheets and grounding pillowcases and, you know, ground inside. If your house is pristine, it's probably beneficial. Yes. That you must verify that. You cannot guess, right? So that's another thing that I've done, right?

Again, because I can do the things that I've done. I have, I've essentially made a Faraday cage. Okay. I've shielded my house inside and out from electromagnetic fields that are just naturally in my walls from the electric wall. wires and the electromagnetic fields from the outside from cell phone towers or future cell phone towers or power lines. You walk in my house, you can't get cell phone service. Right.

It's zero non-native electromagnetic fields in my house. Now at the same time, that's also potentially a problem because I can block the natural electromagnetic fields of the Schumann resonance. That relates to the grounding. I'll explain that. The Schumann resonance is the vibration, the hurts of the pole, basically call it the heartbeat of the earth. Okay.

And it's 7.86 or something like that, right? It varies a little bit. And that is your brain's alpha waves. Okay. And your heart too, right? I'm not 100% sure on that. Like both of them are kind of tuned up. Yeah, they're tuned to that.

And for the most part, there is a rhythm that the heart kind of defaults to, and it does have to relate with a natural rhythm. I can't remember if it's less human resonance or if it's an octave of it or something like that. But alpha waves, I know with 100% certainty, are the Schumann resonance. So when you're essentially in a coma every night and you go into deep alpha wave sleep, that's about as dead as you can be, right, without being dead, right? Well, if processes are so down regulated, there needs to be kind of like a pacemaker.

What is that pacemaker? The Earth, right? That's why it defaults to that stage. Yeah. Right. So if I create a Faraday cage and I do it so good that I eliminate the, the Schumann resonance, now it's really low frequency and it's really big because it's the earth. You'd have to really do a lot, right? But I didn't want to chance it. So what I did is my whole foundation is one big rock. I have about 200 yards of concrete. That's my foundation. And there is probably, I don't know, at least a ton and a half of copper and metal. in the concrete. Wow. And then I've put wires that go up into the, into the, into the rooms.

So your, your floor is grounded. My floor is completely grounded. So that when I've tested this. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. That's amazing. It's right.

So I've eliminated all electromagnetic fields that can come in, right? But I've amplified the electromagnetic fields that I do want. Right. And so again, are you going to be able to do that? No. But this dives into that thing of like, oh, we want to ground. We want to ground. and you start doing it indoors, do not do it indoors unless you can verify that at least you don't

have major human-made electromagnetic fields interacting with you. Some easier things people could do is like we're both wearing the same shoes. These are from a company called Grounds and this has a copper thing in it and this is something that you showed me on video that where you tested it, you tested it with your son. And then I think it's helpful too to wear like cotton or some type of sock that is allowing you accept the and the key thing is natural materials right it needs to come from an animal animal or a plant as long as the materials that it's being made of come from an animal or a plant it's going to transfer electrons fairly okay sometimes with some of this stuff you know i know you guys

like appreciate the patience over the years of people that followed the powerlifting and that now follow some of this and they're like he's an asshole or he's changed too much or whatever but um some of these things that you mentioned and other people mention i'm always just like well, a lot of these things are easy enough steps for me to implement, even minus selling anything, even minus like the shoes or the socks or whatever, even just going outside and getting on my lawn, you know, and just getting my feet on the ground is something I try to do almost every single night. Yeah. And it's just something I implemented over the last couple of years. Super Rain mentioned it to me. You mentioned it to me. A couple other Alex Kickle, I think is another one. So it's like you keep

hearing it and it's like well why don't I just try it and you're like well I do actually think I feel more relaxed between the red light glasses a little bit of grounding going outside getting a little bit cold at night looking at the moon it's actually just enjoyable for me too so I'm like this doesn't hurt anything this doesn't this is easy enough for me to do yeah make a routine out of yeah exactly and then and then the routine leads to consistency consistency leads to long term outcomes right long-term outcomes of, hey, I sleep really good all the time. I wake up with the sun with energy all the time, right? Very few people can actually say those two things in the modern world.

Like the number one thing is sleep problems. I can't fall asleep without melatonin. I can't fall asleep until midnight. I can't fall asleep unless the TV's on. I'm like, well, why? Why do you need something to fall asleep? That seems so weird. Right?

Yeah, you should just get tired, right? Right, you should just, you know, I'm tired, I'm going to bed. Yeah, I know we're about to finish this episode up, but this brings me back to something that I mentioned and I want to ask you, you know, a lot of people, like, ate sleep, they used to sponsor our podcasts and I still have my eight sleep that I use. And the temperature has positively allowed me to sleep better because I know I'm not sweating every time I wake up. Yeah.

But in your opinion, what is the risk with that type of tool? I think it's hackable. And what I mean by that is there is clearly, it's plugged into the wall, so there's clearly an electromagnetic field. You can shield that. There's material out there that you can shield the electrical circuitry

so it's not impacting you, right? The temperature is a positive. I'm not saying that the temperature doesn't help you sleep. In fact, just like you said, hey, getting cold at night helps you sleep. Why? Because it makes you more sensitive

to melatonin and raises melatonin production. And it keeps it producing longer, right? Like you get cold and if you can keep it cold. Now, for me, right, Where I live, that's not a big deal because I can just open the window, right? And it's cold outside, right? And it's cold every night, even in the summer

because I live at high altitude. And so, you know, depending on your situation, maybe innate sleep makes sense. You live in Florida, you live in California or Texas, right? That makes sense as far as the temperature regulation. And so then it becomes what product can offer you a way to make that temperature change, but is hackable enough,

meaning the components, the electrical components are actually in the bed. They're a unit that's outside or like, you know, you can move. Yeah. If it offers that. Again, I haven't seen in detail an eight sleep bed, right? Like as far as like how it's set up.

Yeah, I have one that doesn't use any electromagnetic field stuff, but it doesn't use like Bluetooth or anything, but it is obviously plugged into the wall. Right. The chili pad? It uses air. No, it's something, it's even different than I don't even.

But the chili pad actually. Look it up. up what it is. The chili pad, they've paid attention to the EMF thing. The chili pad doesn't have EMF issues. Right. So that's what I'm saying. So as the consumer, you buy the thing that makes the most sense knowing this information, right? But that's what I'm saying at the beginning of this podcast. It's not about, oh, I got to get rid of everything. It's like, okay, no, you have the information now. Now you start choosing accordingly. Yes. Choosing headphones accordingly, choosing, you know, the bed accordingly, right?

And so forth. But if you already have one, right, look into electromagnetic field shielding. There is something called building biologists. They can literally come into your house and measure all the electromagnetic fields and they can, there's material. We know how to build homes or buildings, I should say,

specifically that mitigate electromagnetic fields. How do you think that people that work at imaging centers aren't walking out of there with cancer every two years? because they have to build all of those rooms inside of that to shield it from electromagnetic fields. Yeah. Right. We know how to do this.

We just don't tell the public. Too expensive. Well, I mean, there's a cost, but not that much more if you're already building. Again, I used those materials to build my house. How do you think I made the Faraday cage? Yep, yep, yep, yep. Right?

I knew about this information. And that wasn't exponentially some crazy cost. Not to building the house normally. I was already going to build the house, right? So I just chose slightly different materials for certain parts of the build. They cost me maybe 10% more. And that was that. Now, a redo, right?

A remodel, that's different, right? Because now you're paying double labor and stuff like that. Right. So some of it makes sense to do, like I said, focus on the bedroom, right? If the bedroom is the place you focus on, well, now it becomes significantly more affordable than whole house. Right. And so point being, there's shielding material out there.

and you could construct a box to have your electrical components to your eight sleep bed to be shielded so they are not affecting you. Yeah. You see what I'm saying? Like when you start knowing the information, you can quickly come up with solutions. You just got to think. You just got to think.

Tell people where they can find you. You can find me on Instagram at the solar athlete. Also my personal Instagram, David Herrera 1119. Basically, that's where I'm going to do my lifting. And I do a podcast every week with my friend Yeris and we have a podcast called Becoming Superhuman. And we put a bunch of shorts on that one. So it's my lifting and shorts there.

And then the solar athlete has a lot more of like kind of the science about electromagnetic fields and is more focused towards this type of stuff. Right. And then a website is solar athlete. And you also have, you have a company that offers some peptides and stuff too, right? Yeah, it has.

El carnitine. Yeah, and I mean, the reason, the way that that company came out to be was not to sell the peptides. It was some of these peptides can be beneficial when you start optimizing mitochondria. If your mitochondria are not optimized these peptides or al-carnatine, injectable, uncarnate, don't do anything and some of them can be harmful. I'm going to say that right now as a disclaimer, right? And so I don't actually advertise it. I mean, I'm glad that you said it, right?

that I do have that and all of that, but I don't advertise it because if you don't know what you're doing, you can quickly abuse and destroy yourself, just like with any other supplement. You can get liver damage from just normal supplements. Yeah. Right? If you're abusing them and don't know what you're doing,

just normal stuff you can buy off the counter. So this is no different than that. And the reason why it exists is because friends tell friends, and I don't want them calling me. Right. You can just go to the way. website and if you feel like you know enough, then that's on you as an adult to do what you want to do. Right. And, you know, this, I mean, it's just L-Carnatine, coline, that sort of stuff. And that's

called darrell strength.com, D-E-R-E-L-Strength.com. And yeah, you can buy all that stuff there. Cool. Strength is never a week. This week, this is never strength. Catch you guys later. Bye.
