Starting point is 00:03:29 They ran the color palette. Was just incredible too. Yeah. If you're a person that loves a lot of, what do you call those photo ops? Yes. Yes. This girl. That's the place for you.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Yep. How many photos did you take Tracy? Not a lot, cause we kind of got there. It took us forever to get there in the morning. Took us like two hours, 15 minutes. There was traffic the whole way. So then we got there, we were trying to rush in. And then we left, we got a couple of photos
Starting point is 00:03:54 and then we left and then we got back and it was time to go back in again. Yeah, and you got to rush and do all that too. Rush and go back in, yeah. Yep, I get it. I would have taken more, but it was beautiful. Every spot, I was like, ooh, that's good. Ooh, that's good.

And I will get the one with her phone number. So we'll be able to switch over to that when necessary. But that is all.
Starting point is 00:07:02 That's it. I think that we've got everything on here. Yep. That's it. Here it comes. Hi, Diggety. Well, we're ready to go. Let's just get right in it on into it because now I'm going to talk about popcorn lung first. Now, or would you prefer because you have to do questions.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Would you prefer me to go to number two first? I'm ready. No, I'm good. So you're trying to do this TikTok shop thingy or TikTok live or whatever you call it. I don't know TikTok. I could probably sell some stuff. We got some stuff out there. We know you're learning
Starting point is 00:07:32 because we go on and we see you playing. You got all your games. I like playing my little games. Awesome. We like you playing your games too. You're entertaining for us. It's fun. Well, no, what we get to see on your end is fun.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Yes. You're having fun while watching you is fun. Okay, I'll do that. So would that help you if I did that, Tracy? Yeah, yeah. Okay, that's what I thought. Yeah, go for it. Okay, now I know that this is done because Norma does it.
Starting point is 00:08:02 And when I got sick one time, Norma was like, well, why don't we try this? And I was like, whatever, it didn't work for me. But does castor oil in your belly button actually work by detoxing? So castor oil in the belly button. Castor oil is known to penetrate really, really deep in your tissue.
Starting point is 00:08:22 It helps break up adhesions, lipomas. You can put them on your eyelids and it helps break up like cataracts. Wait a minute, like lipomas, the fatty pieces, it'll... It breaks them down. As long as it takes to actually get them, it doesn't do it overnight. Unfortunately, we live in an instant society,
Starting point is 00:08:39 like I've said on countless times. It's something that you have to continuously do over and over and over and over again and be consistent. And most of these things, most people aren't consistent with it enough for it to actually do the job that it's supposed to do. However, in the belly button, no, not necessarily. Most of the stuff that studies have shown and that I've read
Starting point is 00:09:01 is when you do it in your belly button, it's more like the massage itself, you do it in your belly button, it's more like the massage itself, massaging it into your belly button actually promotes lymphatic kind of drainage throughout your gut. Now you can do castor oil packs on your liver, lay down, help, and what it does is it helps your liver speed up to kind of do its own job,
Starting point is 00:09:20 which is to detoxify, because that's what your liver's made to do. Yeah. So people are doing that, like they sell like, oh, that was, because you do it too? That's how you, you see? Most people don't notice anything. Oh, well, I didn't notice it.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And they buy, like Norma's got all these like, like bandage thingies that you stick over your belly button so that the castor oil doesn't seep out because it'll ruin your sheets and stuff. Oh yeah because it's so thick. Castor oil is like really thick. So it's part of it's rooted in an older type of medicine practice called Ayurvedic medicine which is like long long long ago. But most of that stuff is a lot of it's like mind over matter when it comes to that part. But if you constantly and consistently do it over a period of time, adhesions, lipomas, it is known for breaking it down and taking it away. Why is it in a lipoma?
Starting point is 00:10:14 Some people don't know what a lipoma is. It's a fatty, fatty tumor. It looks like when you open it up, it looks like, and I know this from Dr. Pimple Popper. But it looks like chicken fat. Yeah. It's disgusting. I had a huge one removed on my arm. What? Do you have a scar from it?
Starting point is 00:10:34 I do, do you wanna see it? Yeah. That's huge scar. What? That's huge. It was huge. I have one that's located right here and I haven't done the castor oil packs I started,
Starting point is 00:10:46 but it's hard to get a good one because of where it is on my neck. And I'm definitely not having them go in and cut it out because it's right on my spine. Yeah, they say you gotta be super careful. So how can you tell if you have it? Hold on, go and stand there. Just really quick, do you mind?
Starting point is 00:11:05 Or, okay. So how do you tell if you have it or not? Cause hers is big, so is yours big? Can you feel outside of your skin or only when you massage? No, you can feel it. Okay. And it's movable.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Oh. And it feels spongy, like sponge. Like a fatty thing? Yeah, it feels spongy. I can let you feel mine But that's how you know, you have one. Okay Well, you probably don't know when they're tiny enough but as they grow and get bigger than you do know Yeah, cuz there's how would you know like like Vanessa? How long had you had it before you realized? I Don't know.
Starting point is 00:11:46 I was very young. I was about 12. Okay. And so I just know that it got really big and for like a split second, I just thought I was like building muscle because of where it was. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:12:00 That's not the case. That's so funny. No. God, I love her. I's not the case. That's so funny. No. No. Mm-mm. Mm-mm. God, I love her. I know, me too. She's cute. That's the best.
Starting point is 00:12:10 No, so. And then you were devastated. No, it's just the fatty. It's just fat. A fatty cockpit. And how does, like, how do those masses get, how do they get created? Cause I literally saw a guy in North Park
Starting point is 00:12:21 going to Walmart and he had one on the back of his neck. Like his neck could not go all the way back. His neck was like this. Most people are predisposed to them. Oh, really? Yeah, so it's not like we could sit there and say that because you live this kind of lifestyle or you do this that you're gonna have it.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Most people are like predisposed. Oh, okay, because what I was more or less thinking is it like something like gets in a pore or something like that that causes it. So it's not even anything like that. No, it's deep down inside. Wow, gosh, that's so interesting.
Starting point is 00:12:55 It's kind of like an abscess or a cyst, right? Where they have to go in and cut out. You have to get out the sac that it contains. If you don't, it just keeps filling back up. But a lipoma is like a big, huge fatty. Just like, it's kind of like a tumor. It's just an overgrowth of a fat cell. It just keeps piling onto itself
Starting point is 00:13:12 until the point where people need to get it removed. But Dr. Pimple Popper, she even says with those, you gotta get as much of it as you possibly can out. And it's not necessarily a sack, it's the material. It's the cell itself, the fat cell itself you have to get out. So it's not necessarily a sack. It's the material. It's the cell itself. The fat cell itself you have to get out. So it's a lot of like, like we're assist. It's the sack.
Starting point is 00:13:31 If you don't get the sack, it will come back. Correct. Yeah. In fact, I just did one of those at the ER not too long ago. Did you really? What was that like? It was in her stomach. I felt so bad.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Wow. Yeah. It was assist or lipoma. No, it was a cyst. Ugh. They stink when they get popped. Yeah. It's nasty.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Poor thing. Yeah. That's rough. Okay, are we good to move to keep going? Let's do it. Okay, so next question. I saw that vaping can cause something called popcorn lung. The way a surgeon described it was so gross. What have you heard about it? So I'm not sure who wrote
Starting point is 00:14:12 this question, but so what is popcorn lung and what do you know about it? So popcorn lung is a rare condition. It's actually called bronchiolitis obliterans. It's just a term for that because actually it's a very rare form of like disease in your lungs and people that are found working with a chemical called diset diacetyl in popcorn facilities, they like the popcorn flavoring, those people can get it as well. It's not just people who smoke cigarettes, right? So people who smoke cigarettes can get popcorn lung? Well, no. I thought it was vaping. Well, no, because here's the thing, they've done tons of studies because that same chemical is found in
Starting point is 00:14:58 cigarettes. So for people to actually get popcorn lung, quote-unquote, you have to be really exposed to a high amount of it. So even a person that's smoking a pack a day may not get popcorn lung like it's very rare. So vaping, yes before 2015 that chemical was found in a whole bunch of vaping pens. And because people were like inhaling it a lot, then you had a higher incidence. So it wasn't as rare, but it still remains a rare condition. Tracy has a good picture of, so a normal, go back to the other one. A normal bronchial is open like that,
Starting point is 00:15:37 right on the left-hand side. It's nice, it's clear. Then when you start using, or you're getting exposed to that particular chemical, you start building up inflammation inside the bronchial and then that ends up causing a whole bunch of mucus to like start like suffocating the bronchial itself and then that makes scar tissue because then it can't move and then when it can't move that's when you can't make the air exchange that you need to make because everything's made down in the avioli, which are the little brown things that look like
Starting point is 00:16:09 little grapes on a tree. Once those can't get what it needs, then those start to break down and die, and then they get scarred up. And then the other picture is a true picture of what a popcorn lung kind of looks like. It scars up the whole entire lung so then the lungs itself can't expand and do what it needs to do. So that's like a, the one on the left is an x-ray of a lung and you see the heart in the middle. You see the spine, you see the clavicle, you see your arms, you see all your ribs. And if you look closely, you see like white like little dots throughout there. Those are scar tissues of the bronchioli and then the left side is where like they kind of show the whole thing in a
Starting point is 00:16:55 different way. But it's not just people who vape that get it, unfortunately. It's it's rare and if you work in a facility like the flavorings of popcorn that that chemical that they use on it is can cause it as well so just being exposed to that particular chemical. Holy moly. So vaping essentially you know you still get your nicotine yeah you're still doing you're smoking and you're still bringing different chemicals in while you're doing it, after 2015 they made sure that that wasn't in there. Now however, you can still get vaping materials that are kind of made on the black market and they're not being as monitored and people like with THC ones and stuff like that, if
Starting point is 00:17:39 they're not monitored correctly, you are going to end up with the same thing again and you increase your risk of doing that. One of the things that is really bad about vaping is you're holding a little electronic thing in your hand. They can explode and that actually happened to a cousin of mine. He was riding with his dad and he was taking a hit on his vape and the whole thing exploded,
Starting point is 00:17:59 blew out the window, blew out most of his teeth. He had to have all his teeth redone. So you know, you kind of like, it's not just smoking it can cause issues like into your lungs itself, but you could have it actually blow up and. Have you guys heard that before? This is wild.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Yeah. Is that common that those things blow up? It depends. It depends on the, where you're getting them from. It just... So many of these things are made like black market-wise because they're sold cheaper and people tend to buy the cheaper because they can afford it.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Because it's not cheap to vape. Just like cigarette smoking is not cheap anymore. Oh, no. Uh-uh. My gosh, Tracy, was it... When you saw that thing, you saw something about vaping recently? Yeah. Was that or you saw something about popcorn lung recently? Was that from a person vaping?
Starting point is 00:18:52 Mm hmm. Yes, this one was. Yeah, that's what I mean. That's what the doctor said. So I'm wondering if it was that one. It's a Canadian boy. He was like 17 years old. He was like 24 years old. And it's a big one that
Starting point is 00:19:06 they kind of use to show that it can cause. And when you sit there and kind of do more research on it, you can find it on Google Scholar, you can find a whole bunch of other things on Google Scholar in regards to it. The thing is, is they were he wasn't just doing vaping regular tobacco products. He was vaping THC that was found on the black market, which had high, high counts of it in there. That's his, that's this one. Yeah. Is that the one you saw? This is, no, the one that I'm putting up right now.
Starting point is 00:19:32 This is actually from the Canadian boy. He was 17 years old. Yeah. He went in, they thought he was sick. He was running a fever, having a hard time breathing. And then they did a whole bunch of antibiotics. Nothing was working. Nothing was working. Then they had to like give him a whole bunch of antibiotics and nothing was working. Nothing was working.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Then they had to like give him a whole bunch of like corticosteroids just to bring down the inflammation. He ended up being intubated. He had a tracheotomy. He ended up having a trach where they put it here. They put him on an ECMO machine because they just weren't, his lungs just weren't working until they started giving him so many steroids and then kind of brought him down.
Starting point is 00:20:06 It took like 47 days for him to just even get home, but he still can't tolerate exercise and a whole bunch of other things because when you need that extra amount of air, when you're doing extra physical activity, his lungs are too restricted. They don't expand enough to give him the air that he needs. He's 17. He was, yeah. This was a couple years ago. He's not 17 anymore, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Man, your life is ruined over like, just puffing. Just puffing. But not everybody's. Now, it's hard. It doesn't happen to everybody. It doesn't happen to everybody. It's still considered rare, but I mean, anytime you take anything in, it doesn't matter what it is, you're still at risk of it doing something to you when you're taking a chemical in. Wow. Holy moly. That popcorn lung,
Starting point is 00:20:56 that's the one I was really interested in. Yeah, that was, I know, I saw that. So many people I know have quit smoking and gone to vaping because they think it's better. I know a lot of people that have done that. But it's not better. Nope. You're just, you're still can harm your lungs.
Starting point is 00:21:13 You still can harm your lungs. You're still putting chemicals in. I mean, you still have nicotine in there. You have propylene glycol in there, vegetable glycerin. Those two are just a solvent use, which is a chemical just to make the vapor. And then you have the different flavorings that they add, which are all chemicals. It could be a fruit flavor, menthol flavor, tobacco.
Starting point is 00:21:33 They have like a Mountain Dew flavor ones. Cotton candy is one that lots of people have. I smell that cotton candy one all the time. Heavy metals come out from that. I mean, you just, I mean, you're putting chemicals into your lungs. Right. Isn't it like an oil base too? Isn't there like oil as well?
Starting point is 00:21:52 So like, where does the oil go? Like once you breathe it in. You're breathing it in. Right. So just hangs out. Oil in? That's right. It's a solvent.
Starting point is 00:22:03 An oil is a solvent. And that's going into your lungs. Right. And then what? And it's kind of It's a solvent. An oil is a solvent. And that's going into your lungs. Right. And then what? And it's kind of like sitting in there. Right. Yeah. So it's not any better than smoking, in a sense, but tobacco. It has its own set of problems.
Starting point is 00:22:18 It has its own set of problems because smoking itself, I mean, probably back in the 1800s when it was just growing tobacco leaves, yeah, was probably okay. That's what I've heard. That's what now with as much stuff as they spray to keep the crop going is causing more chemicals to enter your body and everything else. And like the fertilizers that there's, I know, because that's what people said. I've heard people say, well, it wasn't bad when it was just the tobacco leaf. Correct. But it's not like that anymore,
Starting point is 00:22:52 which I never even thought about that. I thought it was always bad. They were like, no, it wasn't. No. So it's crazy. I don't know if this one question is on here, but you know what, if we have time, I'll ask it. But I will, do you wanna address this?
Starting point is 00:23:10 We all, I don't know how long this thing lasts, but we're all about to embark starting Monday. Our- We're starting this Monday? Yes. Are you okay? Are you able to start doing my money? I can start on Monday.
Starting point is 00:23:22 Our parasite cleanse. Woo-hoo. Everybody on the Hope hotline Are you able to start your hot money? I can start it on Monday. Our parasite cleanse. Everybody on the Hope hotline or says they are part of the Hope hotline. We're doing it. They may not be here all the time. Yeah. But everybody who calls the Hope hotline, they're home as far as-
Starting point is 00:23:37 I wanna poop snakes. Yeah. What is that? I wanna poop snakes. Oh my gosh. Well, you're gonna tell us if you do. Oh my gosh. Well, you're going to tell us if you do. I'll have to like send in updates. Yeah. We will be giving updates every single day,
Starting point is 00:23:52 starting Tuesday, because we're starting at Monday. How long does it take to start recognizing that there's a difference? With this one, I mean, it depends on how much you have in there. It could take, I mean, anything. It takes a little while for your body to actually start feeling the differences of this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:24:08 So we're gonna have to do this for a good month. So we won't know for a month? No, you should start seeing something within a week to two weeks. Okay, so if Vanessa eradicates something out of her system, that snake-like, we'll be finding out about it. Are you gonna take pictures? Within a week maybe.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Do you want pictures? Should you take pictures? Could you take pictures? Why not? I mean, I'm not taking pictures. I'm not taking pictures. I can't, I can barely even look at my own stuff without being nauseous.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Oh my gosh. Next question. Next question. So we will be doing the parasite cleanse my gosh. Next question. Next question. So we will be doing the parasite cleanse. Okay, next question. Natalie, you always come on the whole pot line and drop bombs. The last one was nicotine is good for you.
Starting point is 00:24:54 What is the newest research you're studying out since you were on the podcast last time? There's been a plethora of stuff, but one of the things that I have been really diving into over the last couple of weeks is methylene blue. Yeah, that's a big one right there. Huge one. Lay it on me.
Starting point is 00:25:12 So methylene blue was actually invented as a textile dye, dyeing your fabrics, your cottons. And then they kind of used it to cure malaria. They used it for malaria. They use it for malaria. They use it for UTIs, which they don't use that anymore. And then it's also been used for a condition where your hemoglobin doesn't actually, it gets kind of ruined to a point
Starting point is 00:25:36 where it can't carry the oxygen that it needs to carry. So they use it for that. Well, now that they found that it's used for a lot of other things, good things, like cognitive, it increases your memory. It's almost like a euphoric feeling when you take in it. One major thing though, if you do take it, just be prepared that you will pee blue.
Starting point is 00:25:59 It is normal to pee blue. So if you see like a green urine, yellow and blue make green. So green urine or blue urine is normal to P blue. So if you see like a green urine, yellow and blue make green. So green urine or blue urine is normal. But, and you can't take it if you have a, like a DNA, it's called G6PD deficiency. Usually you're born with that. And if you're born with that kind of condition,
Starting point is 00:26:21 you will know. How will you know? Usually you'll have really bad jaundice as a baby, and then they test you for it so that there's different things that you can't do with G6 PD deficiency. So you can't take it with that. You can't take it if you are doing medications for anxiety or depression, like Paxil, Prozac.
Starting point is 00:26:43 And then your really heavy-duty depression medications which I hardly ever know any ones that called MAOI inhibitors. I hardly ever I've never prescribed them in my career and I've never met anybody to be on them but they're like for really like psychiatric issues and major depression you can't take it with that either because it can increase a thing called your serotonin. Everyone has serotonin in our brains. And if you can end up having a problem
Starting point is 00:27:11 that could be life threatening, it's called serotonin syndrome, where you have too much serotonin and you can't like take it out of your system enough. So then it starts to build up and it causes like muscle rigidity, like severe fatigue and a whole bunch of other things. So you got to be careful if you don't take any of those medicines, you don't have an issue with serotonin uptake, you can take it on a daily basis to kind of help you
Starting point is 00:27:38 with boosting your your cognitive function, memory function, mitochondrial which is a little itty bitty thing that's in each cell. It actually helps detoxify your mitochondria to help, it's one of those aging things to help your cell turnover better. It's a big, big thing now. And I think it was because RFK did it on an airplane
Starting point is 00:28:02 after something, I think after congressional hearings, they caught him putting it in his drink. Really? Yeah, a liquid form. So that's how you take it? It's a liquid form or you can get a pill form. And obviously make sure if you're gonna get it, it's gotta be third party tested.
Starting point is 00:28:15 You gotta know where you're getting it from. Like pharmaceutical. Correct. Like get a prescription. You don't need a prescription. Well, like just go on a really good supplement. Like where I got this from, you would go to a good website. A good website. And then I have compounding pharmacies
Starting point is 00:28:33 that actually make it. You can either get the pill form or the oral form. If you do the oral form, be prepared, your teeth will turn blue. I mean, for the time being that you're on it. I mean, at least say to drink like orange juice with it and it kind of counteracts the blue color. So why would he take it in a liquid form?
Starting point is 00:28:52 Because his teeth are going to turn blue. Well, I mean, if you counteract it with vitamin C, vitamin C kind of makes it not be blue anymore. It doesn't keep them blue. It's just like for the time being, don't smile. Yeah, I don't want that. That's interesting. So cognitively.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Oh yeah, like really, really good for your memory. And it like boosts, like gives you energy. If you're gonna take it, take it in the morning. Don't take it at bedtime. Cause it literally, like if you have ADHD, it helps you like refocus. A lot of people who've been taking it have come off their ADHD medication.
Starting point is 00:29:27 They're over there like, this might be a miracle drug. This is another miracle. You should see Tracy and Vanessa over there looking at each other like, what? Memory? That's interesting. Cause I can't remember squat. I can't either anymore.
Starting point is 00:29:40 But I don't think it's cause of I have any problem. I think it's just because I can't remember because I've never been able to remember anything. It's worth a try. Well, within reason I can't remember things. But sometimes it's just because there's too much going on up here. And we have our phone. We have access to Google. We have access to chat. What do we need to remember?
Starting point is 00:29:59 We don't exercise our brain as much as we do. No, I remember back in the day, I used to be able to, like, if you asked me phone numbers, addresses, everything, I knew them. And now because- I know. We don't have to activate that. I only know my mom's, my husband's and mine. I don't even know my kid's phone number.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Same. I don't even know if I know that many. That's sad. Me and Tommy were at the beach, sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He was like, I think I'm gonna throw my phone away cause we didn't have service. So it was like really nice.
Starting point is 00:30:29 We weren't on our phones at all. He's like, I think I'm just gonna get like a mobile phone and an iPad to post all this stuff on social media. I have to. And he's like, but he's like, I'm done with my phone. Cause he's like, I can't never remember anything. He's like, he just needs this peptide. But he always longs for, Tommy, longs for the simple life.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Like he likes not, he's just a simple person. He could go out and live on the side of a mountain and make it. Sounds like his dad. Good for him though. Yeah. But most people don't, like they live for these devices. Right. Listen, it's a dopamine, every time you touch it, But most people don't, like they live for these devices.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Like- Listen, it's a dopamine. Every time you touch it, it releases dopamine. So people get addicted to that dopamine. That's crazy. Just by touching it? Yeah. I mean, any kind of screen, right?
Starting point is 00:31:19 Have you seen the kids about Cocomelon? Yeah, I think you sent that to me. That's frightening. You showed that, didn't you Tracy? We talked about it last time. That Cocoa Melon video. Natalie brought it up last time. We talked about this last time.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Put that on though, if you can find it. I don't know. If you can't, don't worry about it. Yeah, I don't know what it was, but we talked about it last time. We talked about it last time. I mean, Cocoa Melon, I never seen it. It's the way that they,
Starting point is 00:31:43 they do their programming so that it changes like every so many seconds. So the kids are literally like becoming addicted to it. Or, you know, people call them iPad babies too. I mean, a lot of people are, that's all they give is their screen and kids become addicted to it. For dinner, I mean, they go to a restaurant and they give the kid an iPad.
Starting point is 00:32:04 I mean, I just, I would have to sit there and be quiet when we went to dinner. So did I. Or that you were stuck at the kid table. We didn't go out to dinner. Even if I was at the kid table, we were to be quiet. Like you could talk, but you had to like, you had to like,
Starting point is 00:32:20 You had to whisper. You had to be like not, you seen and not heard. Correct, seen and not heard. That is, that's the way it was back in the 70s and 30s. And there ain't nothing wrong with that. Cause kids were way better then than they are now. But man, oh man, for a child to like, I remember, I think Tracy showed that to me.
Starting point is 00:32:38 You must've sent that to her or something. I don't know, how did I see that? Probably Natalie. Maybe you sent it to me. Yeah, I think it was Natalie. I could not believe the reaction of that child. I mean, if I was a parent and those parents were not bothered by it at all.
Starting point is 00:32:50 Oh no, not at all. Just give them more, that's all they did. Give it to them to shut them up. I would be devastated if my kid was like doing that. So Methylene Blue is one of the ones that I've been diving into, but there are so many, like I told Vanessa when I came, the peptide world and the peptide therapies that are out
Starting point is 00:33:12 there just to help with longevity and aging, kind of slow it down a little bit. It's insanity. I know that back in biblical times when they were living to 900 years of age, I know they didn't look like we look like at 70 and 80. Okay, and that's there's reasons for it's because what they were eating and how they were living, the stress level on people will age you alone. And I just think that again, it goes back to living a simple life and eating properly. And they actually exercised every day.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Well, they had to work. They had to work the field to eat. And they were in the sun and that didn't age them. Nope. And they didn't have cancer, skin cancer from the sun. Do you know what I'm saying? I believe skin cancer is huge by like the sunscreen that we're putting on our face.
Starting point is 00:34:09 I am not like, I can't say that enough. Also the sunglasses, a lot of times they're saying sunglasses. When you're out in, and we talked about this too before, when you're out in the sun and you have just your eyes adjusting to the strength in the sun and you have just your eyes adjusting to the strength of the sun, your body's able to turn around and react. So it knows to like increase melanin production
Starting point is 00:34:34 to kind of protect you from getting a serious sunburn. Whereas we all go out and put our sunglasses on so our body is unable to justify and figure out how much sun is actually out there. Isn't that interesting? Yeah, I don't wear sunglasses, but I mean, I have, but. Mine automatically like darken. Especially in Florida, like you cannot see.
Starting point is 00:34:55 And your eyes water and you're like, ah, ah. It's terrible. It's not like when I lived in Virginia, you could literally function without. I could look directly into the sun. In the morning time, right? Not during like. All the time.
Starting point is 00:35:09 You can right now? Yeah. Cause you don't wear sunglasses? Uh-uh. But I think it's because I have dark brown eyes. I can't look into anything. I can't. I can't.
Starting point is 00:35:20 But I have blue eyes. But we all have blue eyes. Yeah. I mean, oh my gosh. Like I feel like I'm gonna die. I feel like I'm gonna die in my eyes water. You can't. But I have blue eyes. But we all have blue eyes. Yeah. I mean, oh my gosh. Like I feel like I'm gonna die and my eyes water. You can't open your eyeballs. It doesn't matter. I'm bougie.
Starting point is 00:35:31 That's amazing. You need to look into that. I'll look into that for next time. As Jojo says, I have, my eyes are the color of diarrhea. So he was like eight years old. He's like, mom, you know what? Your eyes are the color of diarrhea. My face looks babe.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Oh my gosh, well what color is his eyes? They're like a hazel. Oh. I know it. We can't go back on them then. So observant. I know. There's no rebuttal to that.
Starting point is 00:35:57 No, there's not. No, there isn't. Cause hazel eyes are beautiful. Yes. Out of the mouth of babes. I know. I know. And he was so innocent about it.
Starting point is 00:36:05 Right. He didn't mean it. He wasn't trying to be mean. He was being observant. He was just speaking truth. Right. Yep. But I think that's why I can, like the sun or like light,
Starting point is 00:36:17 I'm not sensitive to it at all. See, I am. I'm there, yeah. And your eyes are blue too, right? Yeah. Yeah. Very sensitive. I always have sunglasses on. Yeah, Tom's are green.
Starting point is 00:36:27 He never lives without sunglasses, ever. Yeah, my husband doesn't either. And his are more like a hazel, a brownish green. Interesting, interesting. Let's go to the next question. It says, what is one thing that is a trend right now that you think might cause more harm than good? This one stumped me. I honestly can't think of, well,
Starting point is 00:36:51 let me put this way. There's tons of things out there that everyone thinks is good. IE, iPads, telephones. I think those are going to turn around and bite us, but the way technology is just moving so fast, people aren't really gonna see that. As in healthcare and these new trends with health, to be honest, I haven't really dove into that. So I can't really answer that question.
Starting point is 00:37:16 Not honestly anyway. Is there anything in the medical profession, see for me like ozempic? I think it has a lot of great things, but the thing is, is like, there's been some stuff that's come out like bone density and stuff like that. Yeah, so the GLP, you talked about the GLP ones. I know you're not big on ozempic specifically,
Starting point is 00:37:40 you think that there's other ones that are better than that. Yeah, ozempic is the bottom of the line. I mean, it's like the basic, I think terzepatide, which is Mungero is better. And if you do it, so here's the problem. I think a lot of doctors just write a script and send you on your way. And then they don't-
Starting point is 00:37:58 This is why I asked the question, because there's always just like the popcorn lung, there's always, it's twofold. Correct. It's not always what people think. So I'm so glad. So GLP ones are not only good just for diabetes and losing weight. And you have to remember, Ozempic has been out or semiglutide has been out for almost 20 years, almost two decades. And now all of a sudden they're saying, oh, it causes gastroparesis, which is horrible, like vomiting.
Starting point is 00:38:28 You can't control it. It's uncontrolled vomiting. It can cause the bone density. Well, a lot of doctors just prescribe and then don't say, listen, because it's going to drop how much you're taking in nutrient-wise, where are you going to have to substitute and say, I got to change my habits. I got to eat more protein. I got to make sure I'm keeping up with my calcium,
Starting point is 00:38:51 vitamin D, K, all these different minerals that you kind of like totally shock the body and you take away when you're on the medication, like hair loss, the bone density, losing their eyesight. Well, you think about it, you're taking the medicine, it's giving you a caloric deficit, not just on your calorie intake, but also your nutrition intake.
Starting point is 00:39:12 And if you're not compensating and putting that back in, it's gonna cause that. It's gonna happen. So you can't just say, okay, here's the prescription, go on your way. And most doctors do that today. They just say, okay, here's the protocol, I'm gonna give you this prescription go on your way and most doctors do that today. They just say okay here's the protocol I'm gonna give you this and go on your way. I personally prescribe terzepatide. I'm not a big component on
Starting point is 00:39:32 semiglutide so I don't even touch on that one. But I also tell my patients listen you have to do a minimum of a hundred grams of protein a day. 100, 120. You need to make sure you're drinking. You need to make sure you're drinking. You need to make sure you're drinking fluid so you don't get the constipation that comes along with it. As we get older we all have a decreased in gastric enzymes and stuff that breaks down the food and with it sitting in your stomach longer because that's what it does it kind of like slows down your gastric outlet. You need to take digestive enzymes. You need to be doing probiotics. You need to be adding back in the nutrients
Starting point is 00:40:07 that you're not taking in when you eat. I see those different things and I'm like, it wasn't, I mean, I'm sure it's not that it wasn't the ozempic and I know that you're not a big fan of it because I, and I don't understand why, but I'm just saying even then I'm not, it's not necessarily the ozempic. It was not side effects,
Starting point is 00:40:30 but it's the things that caused you not to be able to have these situations. It's not the ozempic, it was things that you didn't do that you should have done in order to not have those things happen. And I'm like, I don't think like it's, it just makes no sense to me that blindness is a side effect. It's not a side effect. If you would have ate properly, you probably would not have had that side effect. It's blindness, difficulty seeing, starting to like lose your vision.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Well, what is the major one vitamin that's decreased in that vitamin A? Now, it doesn't mean you go out and get a bottle and just start like sucking down on vitamin A. I mean that's kind of like what the measles thing. People are just taking tons of vitamin A and overdosing on them. People that are trying that aren't immunized, they're doing that. You can't just do that. You have to make sure that you're taking it in the proper way and you're replenishing the nutrients that you took out when you're taking the medication because you're just you're not hungry. Right. You're not hungry so what do you got to focus on? You got to focus on your diet. You got to focus on making sure you're
Starting point is 00:41:35 eating whole foods foods that actually matter not like all these empty calories. Most people go on it and still do the same thing they want. They go to McDonald's, they go to Wendy's, they go to, oh, I'm just going to sit here and eat my chicken wings, or I'm going to eat this fat food, or I'm going to, you can't do that. No, and they don't do supplements. But the other thing too is a lot of like, it depends on too, how long you stay on it. If it's not going to be, if it's not something that you're going to stay on a long period of time, I don't think that that's a real big concern, even though I think you should do all of those things.
Starting point is 00:42:07 But a lot of people go on it and they stay on these. Well, here's my thing. I was Zempik again, it's been around for almost two decades. And until they started using it for weight loss, you really didn't hear a bunch of this stuff. No, never. I didn't even know it was around for 20 years.
Starting point is 00:42:23 So people are like, well, if you're taking it for weight loss, this is what side effects you're gonna have. Well, then all the people that were taking it for diabetes would have been having the same side effects. So what is it that's different? People just can call a number, get put on a medication and they're never followed up.
Starting point is 00:42:43 They're not being coached on how to actually change what habits they were doing to gain the weight and the medicine is there to kind of help you along the way. You got to add the supplementation back in and on top of it most of us are nutrient deficient because our food is nutrient deficient. Which is a part of the whole thing anyway. Correct. The big problem. It's a huge problem. And again, you didn't hear about all the side effects
Starting point is 00:43:13 until people started using it for weight loss. And actually somebody said that, and I laughed at her. I said, oh, because you're doing it for weight loss, you're gonna get the side effects. It's been around for forever in a day. So well, not forever in a day, but 20 years is a significant amount of time. So now all of a sudden it's, oh, it's bad to take because you're doing it for weight loss and you're not doing it for diabetes. And because you're doing it for weight loss, now you're going
Starting point is 00:43:39 to have all these different side effects. And most doctors, what they do is they were like, okay, you start off on this four weeks later, we're putting you to the next one, four weeks later, we're putting you to the next dose, four weeks later, and they max you out. You don't necessarily have to be maxed out on the medicine. If it's doing the job of keeping your blood sugars down, if it's doing the job and keeping getting your weight down, then stay on the lowest dose possible. But is that because they want to have people aggressively drop weight? No it's because the more they have to take the more money they have to dish out. I'm one that's like oh listen if you're losing a pound a week I'm not gonna increase your medicine. If
Starting point is 00:44:14 you come to a stall then hey yeah let's increase your medicine to the next dose or maybe go up just a couple of milligrams instead of because you double it every four weeks and instead of doubling it might let's just go up just a couple of milligrams instead of, because you double it every four weeks. And instead of doubling it, let's just go up by like half. And if you start to lose weight again, we'll stay at that dose. But most places that prescribe it, because it, I mean, if you're using this much and they can get you to use this much
Starting point is 00:44:40 and you're paying for this much, well, how much more money are they gonna get if you have to for this much, well, how much more money are they gonna get if you have to use this much? I never even, it never dawned on me. But it doesn't add up to me. It doesn't add up to me. I'm like, all of a sudden, like, but I didn't know it had been around for 20 years,
Starting point is 00:44:57 but I'm like, how is it possible that bone density and blindness? And I'm like, that doesn't make sense to me at all. And again, I think it's the people that are maxing out on it, just to get the highest and blindness. And I'm like, that doesn't make sense to me at all. And again, I think it's the people that are maxing out on it, just to get the highest and quickest. Everybody wants an instant result. We live in an instant society,
Starting point is 00:45:14 instead of just saying, okay, let's just work this out and do it the way you're supposed to do it. And then if you're losing the weight, okay, then let's stay on the lower dose. If it's doing what it's supposed to be doing, there's no reason to add more medicine. None. And some providers don't look at it that way. Let's get you to the max dose and there you go. You're at the max dose and then it's gonna cause more problems.
Starting point is 00:45:34 Well, and plus I think the faster you lose weight, the less apt you are to learn how to eat properly while you're doing it. Like, what did you change? What was it that you changed while you were on the medicine? You probably didn't change anything. No, I tell my patients they need to change it because if you don't, when you come off of the medicine, you're going to gain it all back. You're going to gain it back and then some and then you're going to be back in the same boat again, or you're just going to have to be on it the rest of your life if you want to continue in that lifestyle with anything.
Starting point is 00:46:04 If you're not willing to change, like say I get a patient, I do blood work and I'm like, oh boy, the cholesterol's up, their A1C is up, which is telling me that their blood sugar is kind of on the higher side. I know they're overweight. Listen, you're like diabetic, you're pushing to become a diabetic
Starting point is 00:46:22 and you're gonna be on all these meds. Here's how we can change it. You gotta change it by diet, you gotta pushing to become a diabetic and you're going to be on all these meds, here's how we can change it. You got to change it by diet, you got to change it by lifestyle, and if a lot of people are like, okay, I'll do that, but then they don't do it, or they decide to cheat, they don't realize you're going to get to the point where your stomach, your pancreas is going to be like, I'm not going to produce any more insulin for you. I'm just not going to do it. So you have to be willing to change the lifestyle that you have. Is it okay to go out and have a greasy cheeseburger every now and then? Yeah, but that can't be your only type of food. Some people, they can do that. They have the metabolism. It doesn't do that. It doesn't change them. There's a
Starting point is 00:47:02 lot of people that's totally different. They can't have that. And if you look at people from the 70s compared to today, you have people, I think it's like one in three or one in five is considered pre-diabetic now or diabetic, type 2 diabetes. Whoa. That's in America. That's insane. And it's all because of lifestyle. Fast food. And some people can handle it. Some people's metabolisms can do it. And again, like I've said, this is what my fourth time on.
Starting point is 00:47:32 What one person can do doesn't mean the next person can do it without having any reprications from it. Yeah. That's staggering, though, that it's that many. It's that many now. And that's all from diet. What was that Disney show with Evie and Wally? Wally?
Starting point is 00:47:53 Right? Yeah, Wally. So the people that left Earth, right? And then he gets up and he gets to see all these people up there and how fat are they? Because everything was being done for them. They didn't exercise, they had all their fast food and they couldn't even walk. You gotta change your lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Yeah, that's tough for people. And I mean, speaking from somebody who had to change their lifestyle, I mean, like the girls over there, like all three of them, they've always been active. They've always exercised. And it wasn't until recently they started saying, okay, we're gonna have to like watch what we eat
Starting point is 00:48:35 and things like that. That happened to me late in my 40s, but they all were athletic or had like, even though Vanessa had been overweight, she at least was athletic. I mean, she had done things and exercised way younger than me. So she had muscle underneath there.
Starting point is 00:48:55 So like when she started losing weight and eating right, it was nothing. Like it's not even a mental problem for either one of them or Talia is not even, but for me, like, I know what people are having to go through because it is harder. Like- And as you get to a certain age,
Starting point is 00:49:12 your metabolism slows down because you're not getting as much estrogen that you used to have. You're not getting as much testosterone that you used to have or progesterone. I mean, all your hormones all play a part in how you metabolize and how your how you how your body works and yeah Takes the food that you take in and uses it for the energy
Starting point is 00:49:30 And it's harder when you get older you get to you hit that peri-menopausal area and It's it just makes it a little bit harder. Yeah Yeah, but some people would say I can't do it. And I get that because I've been there. Like I never worked out. I'm in a room where everybody worked out. When we went all into the gym, they looked great. Even though we all were carrying extra weight, they all looked great because even though
Starting point is 00:50:00 they had muscle mass. So people will say I can't, because I was 50, how old was I? Was I 56? How long have I been doing it? For two years now? So I'll be 57. I was 55.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Like that's not somebody who's in their thirties. Like they all did it late twenties, thirties, right? I didn't even do it then. So people that have excuses or believe they have an excuse, you don't have an excuse because- You gotta change. You have to change.
Starting point is 00:50:27 You have to. And it isn't fun necessarily, but once you do it, you kind of get addicted to it. But that's our society, at least in America. It's a huge problem because we have made a culture. And I said this at the, I'm back working in the ER PRN, right? And I said this to one of the nurses, I was like, you came to the hospital because your
Starting point is 00:50:49 kid had one day of 102 fever, no other symptoms. You run to the, we've created a culture where it's okay to just run and take a pill to fix everything. Instead of doing what it's been done for thousands and thousands of years in humanity. We've created that culture. We've created it's okay to take a pill to change that. It's okay to take a pill to help you with your depression. It's okay. And then don't get anything on the backside to help you change or change the circumstances that you're into. You know, I think part of that is because we we are a very fear-based society.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Well, they've made it that way. Right. And part of the reason we're a fair-based society is because of this thing right here, because we get news so quickly, and news is never usually good. When we're watching things, usually the only things people wanna pay attention to
Starting point is 00:51:44 are the things that are sensational. And usually if it's sensational, it's fear-based or it's sexual in nature and it's like things that you sit there and go, holy moly, like what people in society do this or have done that, you know what I'm saying? So even that, it's not good. So all of us being able to get new so quickly
Starting point is 00:52:07 has made us in so many ways be fearful, but also like you said, want to be able to have a solution very quickly. And that's not life. It shouldn't be life. Cause I'm the oldest one in this room. And I remember back in the day, basically you hurt yourself or you ran a fever or whatever, you slap. And I remember back in the day,
Starting point is 00:52:27 basically you hurt yourself or you ran a fever or whatever, slap mud on it, call it a day, go to school. Oh, my mom used to be that all the time. I remember I got so sick one time, I threw up for a week straight and after a week and then starting to lose some weight, that's when my mom finally took me in, finally. And you didn't go to the hospital. No.
Starting point is 00:52:43 You went to the doctor's office. Yeah. And then they were like, okay, put her on, here's a little bit of fenugreek to kind of help her get over with whatever she's going through and put me on jello water. Remember jello water? Yeah, just take some gelatin with some water. And that's what I lived on for a couple of days
Starting point is 00:52:56 until my stomach settled down. Oh yeah. And you had to like, God forbid you got sick on a Friday. You're waiting all week and long. You did not. I mean, I broke my arm. And back in the day, you just went to the ER and they would stick a cast on you.
Starting point is 00:53:11 You didn't get splinted and then said, okay, follow up with the orthopedic. You didn't have all these specialties. So they just slapped it on me. And I ended up with gangrene. After a couple of weeks of my cast just stinking really, really bad, right? It just smelled so bad. No one would come near me.
Starting point is 00:53:29 No one, my dad finally, and he kept calling. They were like, oh no, she's fine. She's fine. It's just sweat. It's just sweat. It was summertime. And you know, when, if you ever broke your arm, you would stick stuff down to itch, right?
Starting point is 00:53:40 We used to do rulers all the time. Well, no, I had gangrene. I could have lost my whole arm. But it took like out of the eight weeks that you would keep a cast on, I think I was in it for like four weeks, maybe four or five. Before they even did anything.
Starting point is 00:53:53 Before they did anything. Yeah, it's just a whole different world. Some ways good, but most ways it's bad. Yeah, we've just created a culture that take a pill, it'll fix you. Take a pill, it'll fix you. Take a pill, it'll fix you. And it took you so many years to get where you're at. The majority of the people that are like having issues with weight and stuff like that, or like with a lipoma, it takes years for it to kind of
Starting point is 00:54:16 grow. Or if you like have adhesions, it takes years. So if you're doing your castor oil pack don't expect a instant Solution solution you have to be consistent even even with Supplements you can't just okay. I'm gonna start taking this and I want to be fixed by next week No, it's something that you have to be consistent with doing because you won't see the outcome that you're you're wanting from Oh, yeah, and that's the other thing consistency is gone right out the window. We don't see the outcome that you're wanting from that. Oh yeah. And that's the other thing, consistency has gone right out the window. We don't do, it's a pet peeve for me in general, okay? But consistency is the key to everything from supplements. Like that's for me. Like I've been told take creatine,
Starting point is 00:55:06 it'll help increase your weight. Well, I'll take it for the days that I'm working out and then I won't take it on the others. Like that's no good, that's consistency though. And then I get bothered because you don't increase your weight. Whose fault is that? Yours because, but that's anything.
Starting point is 00:55:21 People aren't even consistent in their families. No, nothing at all. So, for me, it's like if you aren't even consistent in their families. No, nothing at all. So, for me, it's like, if you can't even be consistent in those things, let alone, I mean, just your job for crying out loud, that's gonna, it's gonna be very difficult for people to be consistent in eating and maintaining. I think it's very hard for people.
Starting point is 00:55:47 But I will say, and people tell me this, if you just start doing it and you apply yourself, it will get easier. And it has, and it does. And same with diet and exercise. I mean, and you know that. If you change it and if you need something to kind of help you jump start where you need to be,
Starting point is 00:56:06 that's fine. Dandy, do it. But make sure you're changing the habits behind it because if you don't, as soon as you come off, all that's coming back. As soon as you stop, all that's coming back. As soon as you stop working out, everything that you accomplished over these last two years will be gone faster. Oh my gosh. You take one week off. Like we went when we had to go to Vegas and we all were working out. I took that.
Starting point is 00:56:31 I basically took the week off. When you go back the next week, it is hard. If you feel like you never worked out before a day in your life, Tracy's shaking her head. Yes, because it's so true. It is same with your prayer life too though it's the same with your Bible it's reading your Bible all of it it's the same if you're not consistent you're gonna go backwards I mean Tommy even says that if you don't continue you're gonna go
Starting point is 00:56:55 backwards. If people just like if they focus more on just what it takes to have a good healthy what it takes to have a good healthy life from the natural to the spiritual to the physical. And the physical, you do the physical, the mental I think will go right along with it. Correct. I've literally never felt better and on so many ways have done better. But eating, you know, everybody will say to you,
Starting point is 00:57:24 well, if you eat right, you'll feel great. Well, I ate right and I never felt great. Then they say, if you work out, you'll feel great. Well, I worked, would work out and I wouldn't be eating right. And I still, I feel, I didn't feel anything, but you put the two together and then you're like, okay, the combo makes all the difference in the world.
Starting point is 00:57:42 It really does. So next question, if I can't choose you to be my doctor, how would I be able to tell if a doctor is good or bad? I think this is such an important question right here. Your doctor needs to respect your decisions and he should be giving you what's called informed consent on every single thing that he decides to do with you. And he should be your partner in helping you achieve whatever you need instead of just saying, here's a prescription, go on your way.
Starting point is 00:58:12 A doctor should be able to take his time with you and get to know you instead of just getting to know what's on a piece of paper. There's a difference between just looking at numbers and words on a paper than knowing you. Agreed. And here's the thing, like I say this and you probably will agree with me, but when you're finding a doctor,
Starting point is 00:58:32 when they, like the doctors that I've gone to, a lot of times they wanna sit and meet with me and talk to me. And it's an interview process. And I've literally thought to myself, dude, you're interviewing me, but I'm interviewing you. Correct, me too. It's not the way, this is not gonna be
Starting point is 00:58:51 a one-sided situation. Because if I'm going to trust you, helping me make decisions, then I'm gonna interview you and make sure that you're wise enough to make those decisions. And some of them have been good, but then there's others that you're just sitting there going, yeah, no, this ain't, this is not a fit. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:59:10 You gotta make sure that it's kind of like a lot of people that I've like sent to counseling, maybe that first person that you went to talk with, you don't connect. If you don't connect, go the opposite way. If they're pushing something that you don't feel comfortable, you know, you need to like make sure you feel comfortable with it and you've got the information that you need to make an informed decision. If they're pushing something that you don't feel is right, go find another doctor. They're out there.
Starting point is 00:59:39 You just have to, a lot of them, when you do find them, they're either hard to get in or there's a long wait line to get in. But once you get them, keep them. Yeah, because they're worth the wait. I will say that with that being the question, so the C word that we won't say because then we'll get banned on everything. But you know what I mean by the C word?
Starting point is 01:00:05 Okay, so when people, when doctors were trying to force people to take. The cupcake. Yeah, the cupcake. And they basically said, you won't be my patient if you don't take the cupcake. Okay, so that's what you should have said, but some people said, no, I'll take it.
Starting point is 01:00:26 Now you sent me some information, whereas Europe is now doctors are beginning, are being held accountable for giving the cupcake and then being, there being injuries from it. Correct. So, what happens to the doctors that made in America, you think, or even over there, because I'm sure it happened over there. What happens to the doctors that said if you don't do this then I'm not, you're not going to stay a patient. So because
Starting point is 01:00:55 they've felt so like vulnerable and they were intimidated by not having them as a physician, not to have them as a physician. What do you think's gonna happen if that transfers over here, what's happening over in Europe comes over to the States? Pete, doctors that said basically, if you don't do this, then I'm dropping you. What do you think's potentially gonna happen to them?
Starting point is 01:01:20 Like lose everything? Cause that, I know people that were like, they won't see me anymore if I don't do this. Do I think they will? I don't know if I think they will, but do I think they should? I think they should. I mean.
Starting point is 01:01:39 Cause you had to make some decisions and you lost a lot of things because of the decisions you made. Correct. So if you sat there and pushed something and someone got injured for it, and you sat there and said, I don't know, I think morality wise,
Starting point is 01:01:56 I don't know how you could look at yourself in the mirror and say, I'm a physician, I'm here to take care of you, or I'm a provider and I'm here to take care of you and then after doing that to somebody that's wrong, that's just like what pediatricians are doing to parents that are refusing to do vaccinations. I mean, if a doctor can come in, if you could go to your pediatrician and say, can you tell me what is in that vaccine? And they could sit there and tell you and ask you what this and if you could sit there
Starting point is 01:02:22 and say, so what are the side effects for me to my kid to take all this and they can't answer that then you need to go find someone who can. They're out there it's just a matter of finding them. You should be able to have and they should be able to stand behind you with whatever decision you make whatever beliefs you have. Yeah. They took an oath to take care of you no matter what the cause whatever your beliefs are that to take care of you. I mean Jehovah's Witnesses they don't take blood. So people they don't sit there and tell Jehovah's Witness why I'm not going to be your doctor. But if you don't take certain things whether it's your pediatrician or another doctor, if you're not taking certain things or you're not following their protocol,
Starting point is 01:03:08 and you don't stand for it, I mean, they need to be able to respect your beliefs and how you feel as well and still be able to give you the best treatment possible. Agreed. Now Vanessa sent me this. We're gonna get to, Tracy, I'm gonna have you ask this last question, but Vanessa sent me this. We're gonna get to, Tracy, I'm gonna have you ask this last question, but Vanessa sent me this, and I think this is what, Vanessa sent me, I think, is so important,
Starting point is 01:03:31 and I even, I think you were going back and forth with both of us about it, but, a lot of people don't realize that human blood is in Botox, and I didn't even know that until Vanessa sent me something on- A byproduct of blood, yeah, it's human albumin, which is blood, right? It's a type of product that you can get out of out of blood. So if you're a big person on not,
Starting point is 01:04:05 on not, so if you did, if you were against the vaccinations and, but you're getting Botox, what, you don't know where that blood's coming from. So what- And they're not gonna tell you. Well, like you probably can't. No. They're not gonna do the test to go deep dive into that. So to bring comfort or to maybe wake people up, what Vanessa sent is
Starting point is 01:04:35 somebody who has always done Botox for years now, right? Yeah, they started in their 20s. And that woman looked like she was in her 30s, right? Yeah, she was like 50 something years old. Oh yeah, that's right. She was 55. That's right. That's right. She's 55.
Starting point is 01:04:52 Okay, she's not been taking it for the last five years. She's refused to do it because there's blood in Botox and she did not. With the C, with the mRNA technology that's come out, how do you know if that's not in your Botox? Right. So, for people who don't know that it's in there, you might want to know that. But you had been saying something along the lines of, okay, it's a small amount that's
Starting point is 01:05:22 in there, correct? But that small amount potentially can still do damage. I mean, you're talking mRNA is on a microscopic level. So how much damage is it going to do? I mean, that's hard to say, but it's in there. So could it? Yeah, it could. So are you willing to take that risk? I mean, that's... Yeah, it could. So are you willing to take that risk?
Starting point is 01:05:46 I mean, that's... I mean, that's... I mean, personally, if I didn't know anything and I wasn't like a Christian or whatever, but I believe in the hand of God, whatever, but if I was a normal person and I had been taking Botox and I was big and adamant on no vaccine,
Starting point is 01:06:12 I might be freaking out right now. Yeah. I mean, I might be like freaking out. Do you think they need to be freaking out? Depending on how much- Well, if you're under the blood, then no, you don't need to be freaking out. No, but if you're just a- Well, if you're under the blood, then no, you don't need to be figuring out. No, but if you're just a normal person, if you're a normal person, does it depend on
Starting point is 01:06:29 how often you took- Yeah, well the more you're exposed to it, the higher amounts you're going to have in your system. Yeah. And a lot of women, they, depending on what your look is, you get a lot of units on your face. Yeah, if you can pull up exactly where they do like all your injections, depending on what your look is, you get a lot of units on your face. Yeah, you can pull up exactly where they do all your injections, depending on where you need them.
Starting point is 01:06:50 I mean, you can up here around the eye, around the nasal fold, the mouth, forehead. I mean, there's a lot of places that they put Botox. And again, they use Botox for other things too. Like what do they use Botox for? Migraines, we talked about this migraine for like excessive sweating. I forgot about the migraines. Totally forgot about that.
Starting point is 01:07:14 TMJ, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah. So, yeah. Holy moly. But a lot of people didn't even know that. Oh, look, there's Johnny on the spot right there. Yeah, it's a little blurry for some reason,
Starting point is 01:07:31 but those, just so you can see the dots. That's a lot. People put them on the lip even. Yeah, right here, especially if you smoked, you definitely need, cause you get those fine lines from puckering all the time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:46 That's a lot of spots. And depending on where you want it to go, then, I mean, what part of your face you want to look better. I mean, not do they do it all at one time? Maybe not. But yeah, that's a lot. That's wild. I mean. It's temporary, so you have to go every like six months.
Starting point is 01:08:13 Yeah, because it doesn't last. Okay, Vanessa, that was my point too, because like how often do you get it? But I didn't even know, like, I'm only thinking like forehead and like, never did I know it was that many places, let alone the frequency is what I was talking about, not necessarily, I didn't know all of those places. And then you add in the other,
Starting point is 01:08:40 yeah, somebody might be freaking out, you're absolutely right about that. Because that's a lot if you go every six months. Some people go more than that, correct? Not necessarily. I don't know. I think that's average average. Average of six months.
Starting point is 01:08:56 Wow. OK, not that there's nothing there's no reprieve for anybody. Huh? Not that I looked into it or anything or anything. Well, listen, we all know people who, we all know people who get it. I know, I know. I'm a Botox version though, just for the record.
Starting point is 01:09:16 I've never done it, but I have thought about it. I have, I'd be lying. I'd be lying if I said I've never thought about it. My sister's done it. So I have a question. What's the difference between like shedding? So like if somebody just got a vaccine and they were shedded on versus like this, for instance,
Starting point is 01:09:32 is one like worse than the other? Cause I remember one time Pastor Rodney actually said that he had been around people that had just been vaccinated and he, his doctor said that he had been like shedded on by vaccine. So is there like a difference between like taking the chance of being around people that are vaccinated? No.
Starting point is 01:09:50 And getting like Botox? No. Okay. No, you have a higher dose with the vaccine than you do with the Botox and the amount of mRNA that could be in there. But like just being shedded on, like you could get more versus like if you were shedded on
Starting point is 01:10:05 would I have as much mRNA as I could if I got Botox? Like good question. Do you understand like the- I do understand what you're trying to say. Okay, can you say it differently? That's a good question. That's just, I don't know. That's like virus related though, right?
Starting point is 01:10:18 That's not where it gets in your bloodstream. Like Botox is in your bloodstream. When people shed, it's not in your bloodstream, correct? I thought you could just get the virus that they were the shot they were provided, correct? That's correct. That's what I thought that shedding was. But you know what?
Starting point is 01:10:36 Can it get into your bloodstream? That's a good question for people who would freak out over that. Right. I don't think so. I don't think so either. But whereas Botox does get in your bloodstream and that's where it over that. Right. I don't think so. I don't think so either, but whereas Botox does get in your bloodstream and that's where it, okay.
Starting point is 01:10:49 That's good. Hmm. Okay. Okay, now, Tracy. What's your last number seven question? You're gonna be able to explain this better. Am I? Okay, I'll try. Okay, so Natalie, I have heard that there are a lot of false negatives or false positives.
Starting point is 01:11:09 And that's the reason because of it. So I'll read the question. I've heard stories of people going in and getting tested to later find out it was a false positive. Is there a way to avoid the stress of a false positive? And so what I heard, one of my friends worked in the medical field. And she said there is no consistent way
Starting point is 01:11:28 to transport the blood. It goes into a cold van and then comes out of a cold van. And then it's not being kept cold anymore. And then it goes into the hospital setting. And so that could be a reason why people are. I mean, you could have false positive. Well, it could be the way that it's collected, it could be what's in the tube,
Starting point is 01:11:47 it could be the sensitivity of the test. I mean, to actually not have a false positive, to like, is there a way not to, just don't get tested, unfortunately. I mean, a lot of people end up with a false positive, and unless you stop and sit there and go, hey, wait, let's retest again before you treat, that would be the only way to really determine
Starting point is 01:12:07 if it is a false positive or not. Okay, okay. Because they do that with false positives with children that have been considered special needs, things like that. Have you heard that? Because a lot of them get, except for the ambiotic fluid one,
Starting point is 01:12:25 that when they do that, that's more accurate. But a lot of times people will have these tests taken. With the blood. For over 35, I think it is. And the majority of them, there's a large majority of them are false positives. That's again where I would sit there and say, I wanna be retested.
Starting point is 01:12:42 And whether you say, A, I wanna be retested and use a different facility use a different mode of transportation use a different mode of reagent that they use to do the testing that's where I would say hey I want to be retested I know when I was pregnant with my second child they did a whole big huge panel on me and they said I tested positive for an STD and I was like there's no way there's no way I mean even my husband was like what. And I was like, there's no way, there's no way. I mean, even my husband was like, what, what, what? And I'm like, there's no way you need to retest me.
Starting point is 01:13:10 I said, you're retesting me. You are retesting me right now. And when they retested me, the second one was normal. So, I mean, it can happen with anything. Yeah. So you just, I would say, ask to be retested. Yeah. That's interesting.
Starting point is 01:13:24 It happens a lot, even with hearts. Oh, it happens with, I mean, it could be anything. People don't realize that. It could happen with anything. You need to be retested. And that goes back to the question about if you have a doctor that you wanna know is good, if you sat there and said,
Starting point is 01:13:37 hey, I want a second opinion, or I would like another, you know, look at it, if they're okay with it and they say, okay, yeah, that's fine, keep that doctor. Cause if they sat there and say, no, this is exactly, this is what the protocol says, this is what we're following, blah, blah, blah. Then I would sit there and say, adios to that doctor.
Starting point is 01:13:54 Well, I mean, I think I would get retested on a lot of things unless, especially cause people go in and have major heart surgery done based on a test that was actually Not accurate and there and like there are surgeons that say they're not accurate. Yeah And it can happen with anything it can happen like when they do like a cancer test or I mean there's false positives come back all the time even Even when they were doing kovat false positive all the 80, even when they were doing COVID, false positive. 80% were wrong. If you, like if you're eating Cheetos
Starting point is 01:14:29 and you go to do a strep test, you gotta make sure that there's none in there cause it can pull up a false positive. I mean, there's certain things that can just end up making a false positive. So always ask for a retest. Oh, that's exactly what I would do. I would never, which I don't think a lot of people know that
Starting point is 01:14:45 that was a good question. I don't know who sent that in. Was that your question Tracy, or did somebody send that in? You said it was a good question. Yeah. Yeah. That's fine. That was yours?
Starting point is 01:14:54 Only if it was a good question. Oh. So you didn't ask them. Yeah. Well, I wasn't sure. Well, we're gonna ask one more cause there's one more question that people had and I wanted to ask two of mine because I thought they were better.
Starting point is 01:15:07 But no, I already asked them. So I was gonna skip that one. But, and I don't wanna use that word, but we will. It says, do you think we'll experience another worldwide pandemic in our lifetime? Yes. I do too. It's probably gonna scare the crap out of people, but.
Starting point is 01:15:23 Will it be a plandemic or will it be a pandemic? For sure. They're already planning. The problem is, is anybody who's, I mean, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but anybody that's been watching anything, they've already been saying. Anybody that like the political realm,
Starting point is 01:15:41 the world economic forum, all of them, they're all saying we're gonna have another one. So for me, it's like, thank you for telling us. Yeah, just know it's coming, what exactly it is. I mean, they've already tried with the, the bird flu. Bird flu, that's the one I was thinking of. Yeah, they've already tried with that.
Starting point is 01:16:05 The odds that it will be very deadly are probably not that high. The problem is, is you have a government, not just ours, you have governments across the entire world that have been playing around in biological warfare. So once there's already biological warfare and they're doing tons of testing. Testing and-
Starting point is 01:16:30 Something could get released that none of them want released. Correct. Cause that's happened before. Correct. I mean, people might not know history, but if you study history out, there have been accidents. They were not good and lots of people died.
Starting point is 01:16:45 Correct. So yeah, I believe there's another one. When? Don't know, it all depends. But on that note, we'll end on a downer. Oh no, let's end on a good note. I don't have any more questions. Does anybody have any questions?
Starting point is 01:17:02 Yeah, there was one question. Natalie has, if you have any time, she said, is bloating a symptom of menopause? If so, why? Is bloating? Bloating. It can be, yeah. Part of inflammatory in your body,
Starting point is 01:17:15 just not being able to detoxify out the inflammation that's going on in your body. So yeah, bloating. What can they do for that? I would do a good probiotic. Watch what you're eating. Probiotics are really good. You can also do a good gut cleanse. A good gut detox will help with that as well. Is that this right here? No, there's other ones. This is, well, this does metals and parasites.
Starting point is 01:17:39 That's the, that's the good stuff, the metals. So a lot of times, bloating could be like an overgrowth of bacteria in the gut that you need to like have cleaned out, yeah. Anybody else? That's it. That's it. Hot diggity. Well, that's not really on a high note. I know.
Starting point is 01:17:56 It's good enough. Yeah. It's way better than the other. Yeah. So whoever, it's gotta be a girl cause you're in premenopause. Yeah, it is. Way to go.
Starting point is 01:18:04 Natalie's on TikTok. so follow her on TikTok. Follow her on TikTok. Do we have her little thingy? Yeah, definitely follow her. You can watch her in her off time. I'm trying to come up with videos. I'm just nervous to do videos. Why?
Starting point is 01:18:19 She'll give you content ideas. Oh, I didn't even think about that. Yes, tons. I can help you. We'll help you. Yeah. We got you. We got you.
Starting point is 01:18:30 Listen, they and chat GPT, they're like this. Just the throuple over here. It is. Oh my gosh. That's true. So yeah, what's your handle on a tick tock? I think it's Natalie FNP. I think it is.
Starting point is 01:18:51 Okay. I'm live on tech talks. I can't look right now. I think I'm friends with you. I think it's. Let's look. You like something, I'm like, oopsie. I know. It's just Natalie Iverson.
Starting point is 01:19:10 Yeah, Natalie Iverson. Yeah. Perfect. That's easy. I still can't figure it out. Oh, there you are right there. Yeah. Yeah, Natalie Iverson. What Vanessa said.
