3 Powerful Dietary Hacks for Health and Fitness

Hey everybody. So, a friend of mine

asked me about the three main dietary

discoveries or changes I've ever made

that simultaneously upgraded health and

improved ability to build muscle mass.

So, I had to think about this a little

bit because there's been a lot of them,

but I tried to narrow it down to three

categories that I think would be of a

lot of utility and use to a lot of

people in the world out there. Um,

my first one would be food combination

science, which is one of the lesserk

known sciences because there's no money

agendas behind it for anybody. So,

there's not a lot of research in it. But

the way the pancreas and the digestive

organs and enzymes in the body work and

nobody knows this,

uh, you'll know nobody knows this when

you start to understand and realize that

like every traditional food dish in the

world violates how the body works. And I

don't mean to be a downer on everybody's

fun. I'm just talking some actual

science here that helped me a great deal

to come to understand. And that is the

pancreas. For example, when you put food

in your stomach, if you're putting carbs

and proteins and fats in there at the

same time, for one thing, that's a

metabolic spillover disaster. But let's

just talk about the enzymes.

Um, when you put

Okay, we'll take a traditional thing. A

lot of people eat meat and potatoes,

right? I don't eat uh you know, I'm a

I'm a vegetarian myself, but

um

so you you and maybe you are too. So

like you could substitute any heavy

protein any heavy protein food mixed

with a a carb food and everybody thinks,

"Oh, it's the best thing, you know,

because the carbs and the insulin and

the protein shuttling and this and

that." Now, as far as just gaining mass

faster, yeah, that's kind of a way to do

it. But here's what really goes on in

the body. The pancreas will release

digestive enzymes designed to go after

the easier food.

So, in the vast majority of cases,

you're going to digest the carb or the

starchy type food in that combination

for the most part. You're not going to

digest near as much of that heavy

protein as you think you do. And then

what happens to it? It goes into your

gut and it gets like encased on your gut

lining and you have an apocalyptic

worldwide mess of destroyed digestive

systems. And you do, if you don't

believe me,

look into statistics and, you know, get

to know some things about people in

their digestive tract. It's it's kind of

a nightmare and it's it's ignorance.

So, that category in and of itself, if

you want to look into it, it's huge. Um

Vince Deronda was a bit into it. He was

ahead of his time on that. And he would

have his clients eat their heavy protein

meals with oils and fats. He said, you

know, when you combine those things,

it's fine. The fatty acid, you know, you

need healthy fatty acids in your life.

So if you combine them with proteins,

the body tends to digest that pretty

well. Those things work well together.

And you would have them do any carb

meals separate. Okay? So, you're

separating out these meals for different

times of the day to get the best out of

all of them without toxifying and

clogging up and messing up your health

in your digestive tract. The breakdown

of most people starts in the digestive

tract, the the ruining of the immune

system, um you know, metabolic damage,

and then all kinds of weird fungus,

mold, parasites. Uh, and don't kid

yourself, even in what they call first

world countries, parasites are

incredibly common. Probably at least 95%

of people have them. If you don't

believe me, if you want to go down that

rabbit hole,

if you think you can handle facing the

truth and doing something about it, go

right ahead. I highly recommend it. Um,

the next big category I would say when

it comes to building muscle mass, I find

that forms of intermittent fasting can

really help. Um, because it actually

slows down your metabolism, makes it

more efficient.

And then when you do, if if you're like

me and you can actually eat a lot at one

time, especially if you know about food

combination science,

uh, or if you don't, you could add a lot

of digestive enzymes and this would

work.

Um,

intermittent fasting like primes your

body to have a slower, more anabolic

nature. Okay? You don't when your

metabolism slows down, it's actually a

lot easier to gain mass. You can gain

more from what you eat. Plus, you're

giving your system hours of rest to

strengthen its digestive energies before

they're used again instead of overusing

and abusing them all the time. So,

that's a big one. um

using some sort of intermittent fasting,

if you're able to digest a lot in one or

two meals a day, you can actually gain

more muscle mass,

maybe some extra body fat, although the

data goes every which way on that. And I

wouldn't worry about it. I think

actually by giving yourself fasting

time,

your body learns to do everything more

efficiently, including burn off fat

during those fasting hours. So, and some

would say, "No, that's all just glycogen

because you're not, you know, without

carbs for days to go into keto." Look,

even when you're burning glycogen,

you're you're burning fat along with

with it. They never burn just one or the

other. That's kind of a misunderstanding

that comes from reading jaded research,

I think. But,

uh, I believe that you actually

you get a lot of bang for your buck with

muscle mass gains. If you see it

spilling over and you're getting fat,

change what you're eating and your

eating window.

And intermittent fasting is is a very

flexible tool with a lot of utility. Can

be used a lot of different ways and it

generally improves health, digestion,

and anabolic processes. Okay, so that's

number two for me. And number three,

I hope I'm not violating the the premise

of this video by saying, but really the

third most important category that made

the most difference for me, gaining

mass. that made all food and all

supplements work much better. Things

that I thought didn't work in the past

started working. And that was, and I

know on some of my past canceled

channels, you guys have heard me redo

this theme many, many times, even in

detail,

but deep detox down to the cellular

level. Now, yes, you may actually lose

some mass during that process, but it's

all junk mass anyway. And then when you

have a clean system, the things you put

in it, they work a whole lot better. Um,

most people don't realize the wisdom in

that or necessarily have the maturity to

set aside time and focus to go through

true deep detox, which is

honestly sometimes it's really rough and

you actually, as toxic as a lot of

people are now in society, I have to

throw this in here just to be

responsible.

uh you could die from something like a

Herxheimer reaction if you

if you go into deep enough detox fast

enough and hard enough and and you've

never done it before. That said, even a

good detox that you'll live through,

there's going to be stages where it's

rough and you're going to feel worse

before you feel better. There's a fine

line between um detoxing well and going

through the misery of it and going too

far

where you can actually overload your

system with how many toxins are coming

out of places they've been stuck in the

body at the same time. They're all

hitting the bloodstream and they start

poisoning other systems because your

body can't get it out fast enough. And

uh you know I have protocols for that,

life-saving deep detox protocols, but

that's a different video. You have to

get all the trash out of your cells

that's stuck inside of them so you can

make room and you can clear up the

doorways and the hallways and make room

to take in things and build and grow Oh.
