2977: The 5 Things That Actually Add Years to Your Life — With Dr. Stephen Cabral

“And so sarcopenia and loss of strength is a big deal. I feel like it's going to become even a bigger deal with GLPs. It is. I was just going to say the same exact thing. Because if you think about it, if they had more muscle mass, then when they go on GLP1s and a third of that is muscle loss, it'd be no big deal because they already had more muscle.”

“the outline of the fat. And the problem is, is that, and we know this, if you don't plan on being on that GLP1 for the rest of your life, then it's going to be harder that next time around unless you're following the nutrition and you got into strain training.”

“But are you seeing anything else in their testing that is surprising? So all of this is new. And I always try to stand biased, meaning like if people are going to live that healthy 100 years on GLP1s, okay, I'm all for it. Like let's do whatever it is. But what I'm finding, what I can't yet parse from all the data right now is that all of these people using”

“Right. Right. Right. Right. If you're microdosing. So the jury's not out yet. And again, I'm waiting for it to see when we have enough data, because GLP-1s have been around forever. Like they've been around for a good 20 years and been used. And they've always shown to be worthwhile if you're obese. But now people are using them on a healthy weight.”

“Somewhere between 10 and 20 million Americans are using GLP-1s. They believe it's going to be 30 million in the next 18 months. So if you look at that, that's like 10% of the population. That's like 20% of the adult population. So a huge number of people. We don't know what that's going to look like over the next five or 10 years.”

“one that I'm seeing. I'm seeing exactly the same. I mean, that's what it seems to be is that in the beginning, it's all rainbows and unicorns and sunshine, right? Like it's amazing. And then you start to hit that tipping point somewhere around six months to eight months is what I see it in my practice. And your body is now starving. It can't compensate anymore. And so once you've”

“Not saying you can't get benefit from the other, but it's harder. Vitamin D3. And then the third part was actually the SHEP program, again, the simple home exercise program. So the typical home exercises that you can do. So when they looked at all three and they were looking at reduction of biological age and rate of aging.”

“But another study, it's called the vital study. It looked at vitamin D3 and it was a little bit different per person, but you had to get your blood work, your 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 to 60 milligrams per deciliter.”

“your 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 to 60 milligrams per deciliter. Okay. So they're literally individualizing it. We got to get your numbers up. This is what made the hugest difference.”

“It didn't work in people that were overweight. It only worked in people with a healthy BMI. Interesting. So the vitamin D3 was not enough to offset obesity. Got it. And that's why all of these studies are so nuanced. But in our practice, we do three.”

“Okay. They technically add B6 to that as well, but it only has to be a small amount. So in our practice, we're using a good daily activated multi, omega-3 and D3. If that's all that you use, you're going to get the benefits for longevity. Without all, again, I love the special ones, like the trimethyl glycine, the PQQ, like all those.”

“And it typically came from fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds. So, all and but again, keeping the same calories. So, this is there's so many studies like this.”

“They still eat like cold cuts and things that aren't necessarily the healthiest, right? But they're getting so much fiber and other polyphenols, typically from olive oil or nuts, that it's compensating and essentially weighing the scales in their favor. So, all of these studies really do come down to a lot of the polyphenols in these foods that they're eating plus fiber.”

“going to hit 10 to 15 grams per meal easily. So a couple cups of broccoli, every fourth of a cup of nuts is about three to four grams of fiber as well. It's really easy to hit these numbers. But how we do it, essentially at breakfast, a couple cups of berries, great, great way to start the day.”

“And so they looked at this over every few months over the course of three years. The only one that moved the needle by itself was omega-3s. But when you combine them together, you saw a huge reduction. I would say huge. It's basically 3.3 to 4 months reduction in rate of aging every three years.”

“There's over 30,000 studies on omega-3s from food and from nutritional supplements. And the vast majority show that it's overwhelming evidence is that it's healthy for you. Are there some studies that show it could be detrimental? Sure. It's usually at mega dosages, truthfully, because then it could cause like arterial frib or like other things, issues like that.”

“Okay. They technically add B6 to that as well, but it only has to be a small amount. So in our practice, we're using a good daily activated multi, omega-3 and D3. If that's all that you use, you're going to get the benefits for longevity. Without all, again, I love the special ones, like the trimethyl glycine, the PQQ, like all those.”

“food wise i'm having two flex meals a week of whatever i want like no big deal and i literally mean whatever now am i going to eat food dyes and all that no like that's not going to be but if i want”

“What are your go-to meals, your flex meals? What's your favorite go-to? I mean, first thing comes to mind is just bread and pasta. Yeah. Like that, without a doubt. I mean, like, and it's all different types of pasta. My wife makes a phenomenal pesto sauce, which is actually, you can make the argument is healthy for you.”

“plaque in the arteries. And this doesn't happen over a week or a month. Like not one cigarette or smoking every once in a while causes it. That's not it at all. It's what's done chronically over years. And then you compound that with food and drinking because they kind of all go together a lot of times for people without the exercise, which is improving the elasticity of your arteries.”

“add in that i have a cigarette here or there so there are no cigarettes uh you should have messed with the audience and done that a couple times a week i'll have a couple cigarettes exactly so i would say it's mainly food”

“But here's a couple other things. We use it. So we use a product we formulate called proteolytic enzymes. So it has nattokinase of the 10,000 units, but it also has serrapeptase. Serrapeptase helps degrade damaged proteins in the body.”

“This guy's pretty hard-headed. But anyway, I take proteolytic enzymes as a prophylactic, so I don't build up. That's the way to use it. That's the way. You already got a blood clot, go to the doctor. 100%. But again, if you do have a virus or you have something like that, nothing wrong, you know, if you, as long as you're not on blood thinners, to take that as a great means.”

“So if someone has high cholesterol, meaning like, and they do have that ApoE genotype and it is affecting them because we know they're apolipoprotein little A, which we can talk about later, we do supplement with psyllium husk two to three times a day. Okay. Because that will bring it down 10 to 15 points. Yeah. Like absolutely improve it.”

“That's great. You just did. And you like psyllium husk as a supplement? Absolutely. Yeah, without a doubt. Yeah, I've been using that for years, not realizing the health benefits. Really, we did it for digestive reasons. And now I'm reading about all these potential health benefits. Is there any truth to how psyllium husk can help rid the body of microplastics?”

“well. It's really easy to hit these numbers. But how we do it, essentially at breakfast, a couple cups of berries, great, great way to start the day. You can have your protein, whatever you want with it. At lunch, if you do just even say two cups of veggies and then another cup of whether it's a brown rice or it's sweet potatoes, whatever it be, you'll be at 10 to 12, no problem.”

“So unless you have a real soy allergy, that's an issue. Who shouldn't use it as well? People on blood thinners or they have a... Yeah, they'll amplify the effects of the blood thinner. That's right. You got to be careful. Yep, exactly. So those are the people that shouldn't use it. Besides that, take that at about 10,000 units each day.”

“You can have your protein, whatever you want with it. At lunch, if you do just even say two cups of veggies and then another cup of whether it's a brown rice or it's sweet potatoes, whatever it be, you'll be at 10 to 12, no problem. Same with dinner. So those are taken care of.”

“So this is a really well done study. And so, they looked at over three years as well. One of them was omega-3s from fish oil, not from LG or other things, just saying that's what it was. Not saying you can't get benefit from the other, but it's harder. Vitamin D3. And then the third part was actually the SHEP program, again, the simple home exercise program.”

“long as you're not on blood thinners, to take that as a great means. Now, one other thing I have to say is what they've also shown is there's three other nutrients for that arteroplaque, author sclerosis: vitamin D3, K2, and magnesium. Okay. They technically add B6 to that as well, but it only has to be a small amount.”

“all of the things are getting better, even cancer markers. But we don't know if it's like metformin where it works really well in individuals that are overweight, but it can be detrimental in those people that are at a healthy weight.”

“Okay. They technically add B6 to that as well, but it only has to be a small amount. So in our practice, we're using a good daily activated multi, omega-3 and D3. If that's all that you use, you're going to get the benefits for longevity. Without all, again, I love the special ones, like the trimethyl glycine, the PQQ, like all those.”

“if you take it with food, it breaks down the food. If you take it without food, it's got some other effects on the body. That's right. Is that the same thing with the natto? Same exact thing. The other thing that they're showing now, and again, these are in vitro studies, is showing that it actually breaks down blood clots and spike proteins, which is pretty impressive. Wow. So I know somebody-”

“Is there any truth to how psyllium husk can help rid the body of microplastics? Fiber in general, yes. So beta-glucans and psyllium husk are two of those things that can absolutely do it. Wow. Wow, that's awesome. All right. Talk about that study that you brought up earlier about exercise. It was called the What 100?”

“Like, what are your go-to foods that can help someone hit those targets? Best studies that I've seen on fiber, if you're going to supplement, is oat beta-glucans or just oatmeal itself. You could do that, or you could do it through psyllium husk. Okay. Now, what if somebody wants to eat it? What are the best sources of food for fiber that they can include in their diet?”

“If anybody's looking to fine-tune this for themselves, they can just go to steamcabral.com/slash coaching. Or my new book has all these self-assessments called Personomics, The End of All Disease, and people can check it out there as well. Oh, that's awesome. Awesome. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you for listening to Mind Pump.”

“If that's all that you use, you're going to get the benefits for longevity. Without all, again, I love the special ones, like the trimethyl glycine, the PQQ, like all those. I do all those, yes. But don't worry about those if you're not using those three main nutrients.”

“So that is what we use. And then we use something called proteases, which breaks down those proteins too. So essentially what happens is fibrin is covering a lot of the plaque or blood clots and it's breaking down that net.”

“You can have your protein, whatever you want with it. At lunch, if you do just even say two cups of veggies and then another cup of whether it's a brown rice or it's sweet potatoes, whatever it be, you'll be at 10 to 12, no problem. Same with dinner. So those are taken care of.”

“sclerosis: vitamin D3, K2, and magnesium. Okay. They technically add B6 to that as well, but it only has to be a small amount. So in our practice, we're using a good daily activated multi, omega-3 and D3. If that's all that you use, you're going to get the benefits for longevity.”
