Starting point is 00:00:00 One night, I forgot to take my vitamins. I couldn't fall asleep. Because your mind was awake. Yeah, my mind was just like everywhere thinking of so much things and I couldn't like shut my brain down. My dad said sunscreen can be bad for your skin and there's chemicals in it. So I don't put sunscreen on my skin, but if I get like a sunburn or something, my dad, he has like an aloe plant and he'll cut up some
Starting point is 00:00:24 and then he'll rub it all over us even if we don't like it. And then we look way better the next day. You know, so many brands of sunscreen have actually been taken off the market because they cause cancer and they're supposed to prevent cancer from the sun. A lot of people who are watching this might change their diet because a lot of people have been changing their diet since you started this company. What advice would you give to kids your age? What would you say if they're like, I just love Doritos. That's what I want to eat. How do they change their habits?
Starting point is 00:00:56 Well, if they change their habits. hey guys welcome back to the ultimate human podcast i'm your host gary brekka human biologist where we go down the road of everything anti-aging biohacking longevity and everything in between. And today's guests, guests, plural, are probably going to be my two favorite podcast guests of all times. I have brought a new angle to the Ultimate Human Podcast, and this is the angle coming from the little guys, right? We're gonna hear from two of the healthiest nieces in the world.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Welcome to the podcast, Anya and Coral Young. Can you guys tell the audience which of you is which? What are your names? Hi, my name is Coral. My name is Anya. And how old are you guys? I'm seven. And I'm nine.
Starting point is 00:02:00 She's seven. She's nine. So Anya and Coral Young, these are my nieces. They are my wife's sister's seven. She's nine. So Anya and Coral Young, these are my nieces. They are my wife's sister's children. And they are two of the healthiest young kids in the world. And today we're going to go down the road of nutrition in young children because moms and dads, listen up. Your kids can learn how to eat, what to avoid, what to gravitate towards, what the healthy snacks they prefer. And they can actually enjoy their bedtimes.
Starting point is 00:02:26 So here we go. It's a speed round of questions. Are you guys ready? Yeah. I think so. All right. Five questions, rapid fire. What is your favorite food?
Starting point is 00:02:37 Cherries. Probably frozen cherries, too. Wow, frozen cherries. Okay. Do you like to go to bed cherries. Okay. Do you like to go to bed? Yes. You like getting a good night's sleep, huh? How do you feel
Starting point is 00:02:52 after you get a good night's sleep? Probably really good and once it's a school night, you might want to sleep really good. I feel a lot better than not sleeping. Yeah, that's a good point.
Starting point is 00:03:08 What's your favorite soda? Trick question. I don't have a favorite soda. The only time I would ever drink soda like I did this summer was when we went to Italy. We were allowed to have Mexican Coke, but that's because they actually use real type of sugar and not fake. Wow. Is that your favorite, too? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Okay. What's your favorite drink, then? Probably, like, water or sparkling water, but if I had to pick, like, a special drink, it would probably be cranberry juice. What about you? Same water and sparkling water, but I would also think an Olipop. It's like a seltzer water, but it tastes like a soda, but it's really just healthy.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Wow, big shout-out to Olipop. So, guys, when we started this journey, do you remember we did that little Q-tip test where we put the Q-tip in your mouth and then we got those different colored rectangles, came back and we put them up on the TV in your living room one day and we were able to look at those colored rectangles and say, that's Anya, that's Coral. Because one of you is a rule follower. One of you, not so much. Right? Who's the rule follower over here? Probably her.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Me. Yeah, yeah. Definitely me. Definitely I. I can follow rules, but, like, sometimes I'll just be really hyper. You'll be really hyper. Okay. And what about you?
Starting point is 00:04:41 Like, sometimes, you know, we didn't really know how to tell our mom and dad that we were feeling anxiety. We were feeling anxious, right? So why don't you talk about that a little bit? Like what kinds of things were making you feel fearful and making you feel like a little anxious? I feel like we used to have these type of pretzels and my mom and dad didn't notice that it had folic acid in it. And I was having them and I would get sick all the time. And then when it came to the point where you guys figured out that folic acid wasn't good for us, then we stopped having the folic acid and started turning over to
Starting point is 00:05:25 folic acid free. So folic. I think it's what it's called. Yeah, folate. And how did you feel after that? I felt a lot more better and I felt more happier. Right. And what about you, Coral?
Starting point is 00:05:40 You guys take vitamins every day, right? Yeah. And do you notice a difference when you take your vitamins and you don't take your vitamins? Probably because, like, once we take our vitamins, we just feel, like, calm and we don't get all crazy and, like, anxiety. Like my mom does. And then when we do, we just feel, like, really calm. I just sold out vitamins on Amazon to every mother in the world. I feel when I take my vitamins, I feel more happier and more calmer.
Starting point is 00:06:13 And I don't feel like I want to express my madness to other people and just express it on to them when they didn't actually mean it. And it just makes me sometimes want to flick people off, but I don't ever do that. I don't ever do that. When you mean flick people off, you're like, Hey,
Starting point is 00:06:31 how you doing? Chinese middle finger. There you go. Okay. Okay. Well there, there we have it. I mean,
Starting point is 00:06:39 kids pick up the darndest things at school nowadays. Public school system, just not, not what it used to be. I mean, like, do you know what the word yacht means? Because if you don't, then you should probably go back to school. Yes, I know what a yacht is.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Okay, what about Sigma? No. Okay, you should probably go back to school and learn from your kids. Wow. Hey, this is my podcast. I'm the smart one here. Okay? I will ask the questions.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Okay? So you take your vitamins. You really enjoy taking your vitamins. You feel a lot better on them. And since we started working together and your mom and dad started really uncovering the benefits of not eating folic acid and eating whole foods, what are some of the things that you see your friends eating that you guys just don't eat probably like um these cheese puffs and um goldfish and cheez-its and like cheat uh cheetos and doritos and like a bunch of stuff where we're just like in my class, so my teacher has to sometimes pass out snacks.
Starting point is 00:07:48 And she, for, like, the last week, she's been passing out snacks where I realize I'm not allowed to have this. So I'm going to back out and not eat snack and tell my mom, hey, you forgot to pack me a snack I just want to remind you um like there's bad snacks that my teacher didn't realize that I'm not allowed to have mmm what are some of those bad snacks probably like cheese it send the Doritos and what kind of stuff is in cheese it's in Doritos. What kind of stuff is in Cheez-Its and Doritos? Why can't you eat those things? Folic acid. Folic acid? And there's red dye, so dye.
Starting point is 00:08:30 There is also, what do you call it? MSG? Yeah, MSG. Yep, that's a bad one. If you know that word, I will give you $100. If you know what MSG stands for. I've heard of it before. I've heard of it before. I've heard of it before.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Mono... I've heard of it before, but I just heard that it was MSG. I knew my $100 was safe. It's monosodium glutamate, but MSG is like flavoring that they use. I've found a lot of Chinese food, too. But food dyes, you're right, folic acid, all of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:09:01 They're cooked in seed oils. But do you feel like you're missing out? Because what kind of things do you eat're cooked in seed oils. But do you feel like you're missing out? Because what kind of things do you eat that you like to eat so you don't feel like you're missing out on Doritos and Cheetos and Goldfish and all of those things? Probably like cucumbers and fruit. I notice you eat a lot of that. Yeah, and if we have a snack to eat, it would probably be like crackers or like some chips that we can have. Like Made Good and there's some Annie's that we can have, but in some Annie's they put bad things in it that we're not allowed to have. Like the folic acid.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Yeah, like the birthday cake ones were a lot to have. Well, you know, when you see things like birthday cake and some of these things, you know, not the actual birthday cake, but birthday cake flavor, you know, there's preservatives, right? And sometimes those aren't the best things for you guys to eat, but you don't look or sound like you're missing out on your favorite snacks. What are now like some of your favorite things to eat? Because I see you guys eat a lot of veggies a lot of carrot sticks you eat a lot um tomatoes blueberries i see those on your treat trays all the time it makes me so happy but um just so like other kids out there are going oh i couldn't eat that i like doritos um you know tell me why you don't feel like you're missing out. Well, because, like, if I was missing out, then I would be probably kind of happy. Because if I ate all that stuff, it's, like, bad for you. And it has, like, bad stuff in it.
Starting point is 00:10:36 And, like, your parents, like, don't know that. So it's pretty bad. But how does it make you feel? You told me one day that you notice a difference when you eat that kind of food. Yeah. When I eat all that type of food, I don't feel good. And sometimes I get a stomachache and I don't feel like my normal self when I don't have that. Like when other people are eating like cake with gluten and they're eating Burger King and they're eating all that stuff,
Starting point is 00:11:16 I'm looking on the bright side because I know that when I eat that stuff, I become mad and that I don't feel good. And then sometimes I express it on my mom and then I kind of go to a corner and express my feelings about myself. So I'm happy I don't eat all that stuff. No, not time out, but I mean like I just put myself there. You put yourself there because sometimes you just feel so much anxiousness or so much anxiety that you just want to just
Starting point is 00:11:51 leave the room and go be by yourself and just let it calm down. And I've seen you do that before. Do you feel a difference when you eat bad food versus when you eat the good foods? I eat like Dairy Queen or all of McDonald's or all of that bad stuff, I would probably get a like stomach ache. Like when I was with my Nona, I ate bad ice cream and on accidentally and I got a stomach ache. So then I didn't do that ever again until, until my mom said like, I'm okay. And the next morning I felt fine. Nona's are known for that, right? Nona's break the rules.
Starting point is 00:12:30 It's more Papa's. It's more Papa. And you notice that Nona broke the rules with the rule breaker, not with the rule follower. They know where the weak chain, the weak link is. They know where we have to stop and, like, be like, okay, we're going to take a break from this stuff. Let's go and eat something. We go to Food and Thought, and they have these ice cream sandwich bars. I think your wife just got me some to eat over here.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Your Aunt Sage? That's my Aunt Sage. That's my wife. Your wife? I love how you referred to her as my wife. I eat those, and we have a lot of fun eating them because we eat them, and it just tastes delicious. And it tastes like something that other kids are able to taste, but more in a healthier way. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:22 So what do you guys consider to be like some good foods and what are considered to be some bad foods? And what are some bad foods you used to eat that you don't eat anymore? Well, some goldfish we used to eat that our nana and papa bought for us. Until we heard about this and my mom said, you can't eat them anymore so that's probably one probably some cheez-its that we used to have yep i don't see those around the house anymore and then um probably well those are the only things that i remember. I remember being able to, before she was even born, to be able to have pretzels.
Starting point is 00:14:11 And I would just eat a whole bag like every day. And that's when you actually would feel mad sometimes. Yep. And I would yell at my mom and my dad and then I would pow in a corner. Yeah, all that stuff. Yeah, all that stuff. Do you want to take your hats off? Because you can't even see.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Oh, there we go. There we go. It's the bright light. Yeah, take off the old. We just had to promote the ultimate human swag gear. It's the hottest selling item on Amazon. They can't get it in stock anywhere in the world. These shirts are flying on the shelf.
Starting point is 00:14:40 You two are lucky to have those. So what kinds of things do you, do you ever tell your friends this like hey maybe the reason why you're sad or the reason why your tummy's upset um or the reason why you get angry or you feel anxious or anxiety maybe maybe it's what you're eating and do you ever talk to them about maybe you could try changing your snacks and change your the foods you're eating a little bit. Well, I don't really say that, but I say, like, when I wore this shirt to school, I said, I'm an ultimate human with my Aunt Sage and Uncle Gary, and I eat healthy food, so not, like, all of the bad stuff, like Doritos and Cheez-Its and all that stuff that we already talked about. Well, if you're eating so much healthy food, why are your teeth falling out?
Starting point is 00:15:29 They are because she's seven. It's like I lost a bunch of teeth, but they grow. Oh, I thought maybe like on the side you were having sugar and your teeth were falling out. No. They're coming back? Yeah. And you guys are still coughing? Well, that happened from a a friend she kind of had
Starting point is 00:15:47 the cough and then she kind of spread it gave it to us so i love that you're coughing right into my microphone because that's usually my chair so that's great well she kind of did and uh you know see the suggestion that you need to cough is making you cough. So here's the other cool thing that I love that you guys do. Now, let's switch to, like, some of the fun activities that we do. Like, first of all, we're not afraid of the sun, right? No. Nope. Nope.
Starting point is 00:16:15 We're not afraid of the sun. Well, sunscreen, I think, is my dad said there's sunscreen. Sunscreen can be bad for your skin, and there's chemicals in it. And when you put it on your skin, it's just not good for you. So I don't put sunscreen on my skin. But after like if I get like a sunburn or something, my dad, he has like an aloe plant and he'll cut up some. He literally does go cut it right out of the yard. He'll cut it out of the yard, cut it, let all the icky stuff flow out of it, and then he'll rub it all over us even if we don't like it.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Even if we don't like it. And then we look way better the next day. You feel better the next day. Way better. Yeah, you can use beef tallow and zinc, things like that. You know, so many brands of sunscreen have actually been taken off the market because they cause cancer and they're supposed to prevent cancer from the sun. Not getting cancer. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Yeah. That seems a little crazy, right? Someone, someone who I know told me that it was an adult and they were like, you should always wear sunscreen every day to prevent your skin from the sun in case of you get like skin cancer. And I'm thinking to myself, my Aunt Sage and Uncle Gary are health people and they tell me that some types of sunscreen that you're wearing right now prevents you getting cancer, skin cancer. This is my personal favorite, the brownie bar. This is gonna sound crazy. It has raw cacao, it's got MCT oil, it's got coconut oil.
Starting point is 00:17:49 You'll see when you open these, you will see the raw food in this pressed bar. I mean, it's just amazing. Look at all of the raw food that you can see in there. It's actually green cabbage, broccoli. I know those don't sound like they go well together, but wait till you taste this. You can press whole foods into a bar like this
Starting point is 00:18:07 and it tastes just like a brownie. This is my absolute go-to favorite. If you just keep breaking this apart, you'll just see all the raw food in there. The raw cacao, you can see the shiny nuts in there. This is a great way to sneak vegetables into your kid's day because it's packed with organic vegetables. So you can get broccoli and green cabbage into
Starting point is 00:18:26 their diets and it tastes just like a brownie it's amazing oh my god that is so good that is my go-to favorite you're gonna love it too now let's get back to the ultimate human podcast that's right some um well some of the sunscreens can actually you know have been linked to causing skin cancer we can use natural things like beef tallow and zinc and things like that. I mean, do your friends wear a lot of sunscreen? Yes. Yeah. Well, it's not all sunscreens aren't that bad for you.
Starting point is 00:18:54 But the other thing that's really cool that you guys do, talk about some of your favorite things to do at Uncle Gary's house. We had the cold plunge. The cold plunge. You gave me a very chilly hug today. Oh, yes. When I came up. Yes, after my four- the cold plunge. The cold plunge. You gave me a very chilly hug today. Oh, yes. When I came up. Yes, after my four-minute cold plunge. Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:09 You did four minutes in the cold plunge? Yes. Yes. Have you done that long? No. She went one minute. I did one minute because my dad told me if you go in for too long, you get too cold, so I didn't really want to do it.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Yeah. My fingers and feet turned white. You don't need that much time. But we do lots of other fun stuff, right? Like you've been in the sauna. The red light bed. The red light bed. The hydrogen bath.
Starting point is 00:19:31 The hydrogen bath. You love coming over here and doing the biohacking stuff, right? Which one's your favorite? Probably the hydrogen bath. Why? Because it's warm? Yeah. And it gives like because last time I came here I went in there and
Starting point is 00:19:47 all the stuff like all the scrapes and all the like stuff that you got hurt with makes it feel better in the next day. And it heals super fast, right? Yeah, it heals really fast. Yeah, bug bites or scabs. Like I had a full
Starting point is 00:20:03 scrape right here and it was like a full onon scrape, like it was a full-on scab. And I just went into the hydrogen bath, and I come out, I look at my knee, and I'm like, oh, my gosh, it's all gone. Yeah, it's pretty wild how that works, right? It's very anti-inflammatory. So you say your favorite is the hydrogen bath. How do you feel when you get out of a cold plunge? Probably really nice. Like once you're like sweating hot, you really want to go in it.
Starting point is 00:20:32 And like that's how I feel. So like I think that I'm sweating hot and then I go in there and it feels really cold. But it makes you feel really better. So when I get out, I feel really chilly, but it's good for your skin. How about you? So we have a cold plunge at our house. Well, you know what my favorite picture of you guys is?
Starting point is 00:20:55 It wasn't really a cold plunge. It was a cooler that your dad put some ice in and then put some water in, and then you guys got in it. Remember that one before you had the cold plunge? And so we have a cold plunge now, you had the cold plunge? Uh-huh. And so we have a cold plunge now, like a real cold plunge in our garage. And my dad does it a lot before we go to bed because it's supposed to help you calm down, and it just kind of helps you settle in.
Starting point is 00:21:21 I remember when I first started my company almost almost 10 years ago your dad was actually cold plunging i thought he was out of his mind and then five years later i'm like the cold punch king i teach cold lunch course so sometimes your dad's like way ahead of his time with all the nutrition stuff like the aloe plant i think he got from i mean that's been around for centuries right and sometimes you know what's always been around, just the basics makes things a lot better, right? Do you know any of your friends that do any of these things? I don't think so. But, like, some people said they still eat some of the stuff that we do.
Starting point is 00:21:59 But some of the stuff that they eat, they don't. So I don't think so because they, like, never done it. But I think they, like, jumped in something cold or, like, had bed or something. Accidentally got in their cold pool. Yeah. I know some friends who take the vitamins we take, which we call sagey vitamins. Yeah, sagey vitamins. They're methylated.
Starting point is 00:22:22 That's okay. She deserves the credit. She helped develop them. But they're called methyy vitamins. That's okay. She deserves the credit. She helped develop them. But they're called methylated vitamins. These are vitamins that are already broken down as opposed to the vitamins that you guys had before, like just basic off-the-shelf vitamins. Yeah, and some of my friends, like one of my best friends who I've known for like ever, they take the vitamins, and we went on vacation with them
Starting point is 00:22:46 and they all forgot their vitamins and we had like our whole thing of vitamins and we just like pass it all out to them. And did they like them? Did they? Yeah. See, because it's amazing what happens when we put things into our bodies
Starting point is 00:22:59 like vitamins and minerals and nutrients and then all of a sudden we feel better and our mood improves and our tummy doesn't hurt as so much. And we don't feel those sensations of fear, right? Which is what anxiety is. And we don't get so, we don't get so worked up. Do you think that it's actually helped you guys sleep? Um, a little, like I'm not like a deep sleeper, but I, I sleep really good still.
Starting point is 00:23:27 I think it helps me. Like one night I forgot to take my vitamins that night and I couldn't fall asleep. Because your mind was awake. Yeah, my mind was just like everywhere thinking of so much things like tests and all that stuff. And I couldn't like shut my brain down. That's so much more common than you think. And most adults have that too. They go to bed tired, but they can't go to sleep because their mind is awake and they start thinking about all the things that they missed during the day and they start thinking
Starting point is 00:23:55 about what they got to do tomorrow. So what advice would you give the kids your age? By the way, how old are each of you? We already said that. No, but I'm senile. I'm like Joe Budden. I forgot. How old you? We already said that. I'm senile. I'm like Joe Budden. I forgot. Oh my God. I'm seven.
Starting point is 00:24:12 You're seven? Nine. Remember that. Nine. Maybe somebody's just tuning into the podcast. Calm down. If you guys are hard talent to work with, I will have a word with your agent. We don't have an agent. You have a mom.
Starting point is 00:24:26 That's your agent. Wait, that is? Yeah. She's your agent, your publicist, your attorney, your executive assistant. She does make my breakfast for me, my lunch for me, my dinner for me. She does do our lunch. I mean, our laundry and all that mom stuff. You guys have a whole staff of one person.
Starting point is 00:24:45 So congratulations. But what advice would you give to kids your age, seven and nine? What would you say if they're like, I just love Doritos and Cheetos and I love goldfish and I like pizza and that's what I want to eat. What would you say to them? How do they change their habits? and I like pizza, and that's what I want to eat. What would you say to them? How do they change their habits? Well, if they change their habits, they would be much more healthier. So if they said that to me, I'd be like, that's all bad stuff, so you guys should change your habits.
Starting point is 00:25:20 So maybe eat some, like, cucumbers or tomatoes or fruit and first eat the healthy stuff first and then eat, get your dessert. That's good advice. I think that my advice would be try to like stop eating all of that stuff and look for things like, so there's like Fruit Loops. No, not Fruit Loops, Fruit Roll-Ups. Yeah, and we weren't allowed to have those until we saw Annie's Fruit Roll-Ups, and we were allowed to have it, and we've been having them now because they're more healthier. They taste basically like the same thing.
Starting point is 00:26:03 Right, but what are the benefits of, because it's hard when somebody really likes those kinds of foods to just stop eating them because they're going to be healthier. What are some of the benefits you guys have found from eating healthy foods? And what could you say to your friends that like, hey, if you stop eating that stuff and starting eating healthy foods, here's what's going to happen. Well, I would say, like, you should, like, like, you should, like, get better and have, like. Not so mad. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Tummy doesn't hurt. Yeah. Maybe sleep better. Not feel so fearful, so anxious. Because I think that, you know, the message I want to get out to the moms and the dads and the kids out there is, you know, some of these behaviors that you have, some of these feelings that you have, I have anxiety, I have anxiousness. I'm scared of going to school. I'm up all night thinking about things. We call it ruminating on things.
Starting point is 00:27:05 My tummy hurts for no reason or sometimes it hurts after meals. Maybe all that stuff can be a part of their past because I used to hear you guys complain about that all the time. And you don't complain about it at all. You guys are never talking to me about your tummies. I've never seen you have a temper tantrum. I just found out you can throw the Chinese New Year. I like that one very much. But, right?
Starting point is 00:27:29 So you actually feel better. So actually on the other side, there's big benefits, right? Yeah. So like when you get to, like when you're like getting all those better benefits, it just makes you feel like you have like a much more happier life and it'll um prevent your future to like maybe be better and like you'll you'll um you'll like um you're like like when you are eating all that stuff like how we used to eat some of that stuff. I would always, my stomach would always hurt.
Starting point is 00:28:14 And I would be like, I didn't eat anything bad today. Which you thought was bad, right? Which I thought wasn't bad. But now I realize that it's bad because of all the folic acid and all that stuff that's in it, it's preventing my brain to not feel well, and it makes my stomach not feel well, and then I don't feel well, and then I get sick, and then it doesn't turn out to be a good day when you think you're having a good day. When you think you're having a good day eating all the stuff, the junk food. Yeah. Eating the Doritos and you're like, oh my gosh, this is the best day ever.
Starting point is 00:28:53 Really, it's going to turn into the worst day ever. And you're going to have a stomach ache. You're not going to feel good. And all you're going to want to do, this is for the boys out there, all you're going to want to do. This is for the boys out there. All you're going to want to do is lay in your bed and play video games on an iPhone or a tablet. Please don't do that at home. That's bad for your brain.
Starting point is 00:29:13 Bad for your brain. Bad for your brain. You should like. I would actually agree with that. Going back to the boy part when Anya said you shouldn't watch all that bad stuff on YouTube or all that stuff. But if you work out or go swim in the pool or jump in the pool and all that stuff. Yeah. Yeah, when you're exercising and running around the yard, your dad's chasing you around the yard.
Starting point is 00:29:41 You guys have a trampoline. You got a pool. You got a jacuzzi. You got a crazy little slide thing that you ride the car down you guys are outside all the time i love it and that's how that's how i grew up too so every time i um finish a podcast i ask all my podcast guests the same question okay and there's no right or wrong answer to this question um but what does it mean to you guys to be an ultimate human? It means a lot because I see it as, for me, feeling a lot more better than some people in the world who maybe have, like adults, like they could be going to the hospitals and stuff
Starting point is 00:30:24 because of of smoking. I could look on the bright side and be like, I'm happy to be an ultimate human because I know the stuff that I'm allowed to have and that will prevent me from not having to go to hospitals and doing all that stuff. So true. So true. Prevention is the key. Well, if I'm really happy that I have you and your wife Sage, which is my aunt, I'm happy that you guys made this because if you guys didn't make this,
Starting point is 00:31:00 me and Anya would still have all that tension and anxiety and all the bad stuff that people had. So I'm really happy that you guys made this and I'm really happy. Thank you guys so much. I think you guys have been my favorite guests. Is there anything else you want to say before we sign off and say that's just science? I have a question. Okay. All of the people out there who eat hot lunch in, well, if you go to Lake Park Elementary, which is me and Anya's school,
Starting point is 00:31:32 all the people who eat hot lunch, it has bad stuff in it. Like all of the bread has bad full glass in it. All of the stuff in there is bad. Macaroni and cheese and stuff like that. Maybe they could bring their lunches from home, right? Yeah, bringing more homemade lunches to school would be better because watching this you would know to look at the ingredients and think does this have folic acid or dye in it.
Starting point is 00:32:04 And then you would see like I can give my child this and they would have a happier day. Porn syrups and things like that. Well, I think that's really, really good advice, guys. I think this is going to be one of our most popular podcasts. Thank you guys both for coming on today. In my mind, you guys are ultimate humans. Can I say one more thing?
Starting point is 00:32:22 Yeah, of course. I would like to share my um i think they call it a methylation because i'm proud to say it yes um so i got um three reds but and i got a yellow and a green but that's all right because um i probably got it from my Nona. Yes. Yeah, because she has three reds and a yellow and a green. That went to your mom, went to you. Your dad's also got a role in this.
Starting point is 00:32:54 I think my mom only has a yellow and a green and a yellow and a green. I'm pretty sure. You never know. I'm proud to say that I have three reds because I think it's a good part about my life because I think that I can try to change my attitude from being like an inside out anger. So color red and try to turn it into a green and try to um try to like change like my mindset from being angry from um kind of having like a bad um um like um but it's not bad but i mean like um from having all of that, um, into something good. Like I can focus on like, um,
Starting point is 00:33:47 me like speaking and like me, um, saying all of this stuff that I'm saying and like my emotions, it just helps me to remind me. Cause my aunt Sage explained it to me. I'm sorry. Oh, you're getting here now.
Starting point is 00:34:03 That's so cute. Um, she, I'm sorry. Aw, you're getting teared up. That's so cute. Um, she... I'm sorry. It's okay, Anya. She... This is happy tears, by the way. She explained to me that, um, red's a good thing and that... Thank you.
Starting point is 00:34:18 And that, um, it's a good thing to sometimes have red because you can focus on, um, trying to think better. And it's just sometimes good for your body to remind yourself, um, try to think on the bright side that, um, you could be like that.
Starting point is 00:34:38 You can try to change it and bring it to a green instead of like a red. Or like, or like you could change it to a yellow and just help and there's so many kids on you i'm really glad that you're you're speaking your heart because there's so many kids that felt the way that you did that don't feel the way you do now they're still trapped in that feeling of anxiousness and anxiety and not understanding why they're mad and why they're upset can i please say my ventilation yes um i love that you guys both know the word methylation i mean that's why like i've done a good job in this world um if you're like littler like my age you'll get like green and yellows because like if you're like older like nine and no let's not call her older
Starting point is 00:35:25 um it just works on like um like you don't have to always get a yellow or a green like my whole life i think i've always had three reds and a yellow and a green like that was just your methylation of your um brain but the point is we're not stuck with our genes, right? We can change our lifestyle, which you did. We can change our behavior, which you did. And you can change your diet, which you did. And when that changed, it had no effect on you. It used to run your life, you know, mad, sad, anxious, anxiety, poor sleep, all of those things. So many people listening to this right now, their kids are going through the same thing and they feel hopeless and they're just, but they don't know
Starting point is 00:36:09 where to start. And the simple things that you guys did to change your diet and the simple supplements that you take, you don't take any medication. That's the important thing. You don't take medicine. You take vitamins and you change your diet and you guys feel better. You look better. You sleep better. You behave better. You're calmer. You, you, you better you look better you sleep better you behave better you're calmer you you you cry less unless you're happy so it's really good happy tears can i say one more thing you can say one more thing a lot of people who are watching this might like not all of them might change their diet because if like a lot of people have been changing their diet since you started this company and a lot of people are getting all the 10x health t-shirts and glasses and
Starting point is 00:36:53 hats and all that stuff amen guys thank you both for coming you are both ultimate humans can you come over and give me a hug thank you you so much. You guys did such a good job. Congratulations. And guys, that's just science.
