| This interview is an excerpt from Kevin Gianni's | | | | research exactly whose getting the results of |
| Fountain of Youth Summit, which can be found at In | | | | remineralizing their bones and you'll find it's people |
| this excerpt, David Wolfe shares on the myths about | | | | who are not taking these forms of calcium that are |
| calcium and life changing MSM. | | | | toxic, which is the oyster shell calcium and to some |
| The Fountain of Youth World Summit with David | | | | degree even coral calcium. |
| Wolfe, nutrition authority and author of Sunfood | | | | Kevin: Now, bones are alkaline and doesn't the acidity |
| Success System. | | | | of meats and sugars - does that eat away at the |
| Kevin: Let's take another turn here and let's talk a | | | | bone? I mean has that been proven or is that just a |
| little bit about some of the common things that | | | | theory that I think I have, you know? |
| people are experiencing nowadays and maybe if you | | | | David: Well, that's a great question and that's the |
| can just give some suggestions on what they can do | | | | other side of the equation about osteoporosis. One is |
| to help them out. I know that, to start, we'll start | | | | we've got to make sure we get the right nutrition to |
| with osteoporosis. A lot of women are concerned | | | | build strong bones. The other side of the equation is |
| about osteoporosis and they're concerned about | | | | we've got to make sure we are doing things that |
| calcium and taking these calcium pills. You know, what | | | | aren't hurting our bones. Eating lots of sugar is one of |
| are some of the pros and cons of that? | | | | the worse things we can do to our overall health of |
| David: Okay, well the nations that consume the most | | | | our teeth, which are living bones and to the density |
| calcium, the United States, Canada and the | | | | of our bones because when we take in lots of sugar |
| Scandinavian countries, have the worse osteoporosis | | | | our body has to use calcium, it has to pull calcium out |
| and that's because our theory of mineralization or our | | | | of the bones to buffer or neutralize the intense |
| theory of nutrition is incorrect. The general theory is | | | | acidity of the sugar. Calcium is highly alkaline, as you |
| that a hundred years ago they started looking at | | | | stated. Our bones are alkaline and, therefore, alkaline |
| people's bones. They found out that, oh my god; | | | | minerals are used whenever we're exposed to real |
| these bones are made out of calcium. When people | | | | strong acids. Sugar is a very strong acid. I mean, you |
| don't have enough bone density the thought is, oh | | | | know, we used to dissolve the corrosion on our |
| they just have to eat more calcium because that's | | | | battery terminals of our bus by dumping soda pop |
| what builds bones. Calcium does not build bones and | | | | onto it because that sugar just dissolves and the |
| that is one of the biggest misconceptions ever and it | | | | phosphoric acid just dissolves all the corrosion right on |
| actually goes to the real core of our problems with | | | | the battery terminal. I mean you don't' want to be |
| science. And that is the human body is a complex | | | | putting that in your body. That's dangerous. |
| biological machine of an unbelievable of mystery. And | | | | Kevin: Let's get into supplements little bit. And you |
| there is strong evidence that indicates that if you eat | | | | walk into a health food store and there are literally |
| some of the calcium, let's say it's calcium from coral | | | | thousands of them. How do you get through them |
| calcium, for example, oyster shell calcium. That it is | | | | to find the ones that help with weight loss, and |
| almost impossible to get that stuff into your bones | | | | longevity, is really what I think the fountain of youth |
| to increase bone density. The amount of increasing | | | | is all about? Which ones of those are the best? I |
| bone density, at best, is 1 or 2%. It is not good | | | | mean rhodiola, turmeric, cinnamon. I mean which ones |
| enough. | | | | are the ones that people should be focusing on, not |
| What increases bone density? Well, it turns out it's | | | | necessarily take but should be focusing on? |
| two other minerals and that is silicon and magnesium. | | | | David: That's such an excellent question. My job is to |
| Now, the best natural source of magnesium is cacao | | | | basically guide people into health food stores and |
| and cacao is known to be good for your teeth. In | | | | create order out of chaos. There are so many things. |
| fact, there are chemicals in cacao that kill the | | | | Okay, well the most important thing, in my opinion, |
| organism Streptococci mutans that cause cavities. | | | | that you can buy in a health food store in that |
| And, in fact, those extracts of the chocolate are | | | | department is going to be vitamin C. |
| now going to be showing up in toothpaste all over | | | | Kevin: Okay. In what form? |
| the world. | | | | David: Well, there's different forms. Now, I |
| Kevin: No kidding? | | | | recommend that you start experimenting, moving |
| David: That's amazing. That to me is just such a | | | | away from synthetic forms of vitamin C or ascorbic |
| dramatic irony. | | | | acid, which is still beneficial, still good for you, and |
| Kevin: Wow. | | | | moving towards powdered, really high vitamin C |
| David: All along chocolate has been good for your | | | | plants. For example, you can get acerola cherry. It's a |
| teeth. It's the sugar that's been bad but even then, | | | | tropical berry that is really high in vitamin C. It's like 1 |
| even then, studies have been done on people who | | | | or 2% vitamin C and basically what they do is they |
| eat chocolate even with the sugar and it's been | | | | grow these berries. They dry them and they powder |
| found with a study done in Scandinavia on this. It's | | | | them down and the encapsulate them or put them in |
| been found that even then that people who eat | | | | a glass jar and sell them in health food stores as |
| chocolate have been teeth health than people who | | | | vitamin C. Now, that's a real great way to get lots of |
| don't. To me that's amazing. But let's get on to silicon | | | | vitamin C natural with all the cofactors. Vitamin C |
| because this is the mineral that is difficult to get in | | | | needs cofactors like rutin and bioflavonoids that are |
| today's diet. What is silicon? It's a mineral. You get it | | | | all naturally present in those powders, like acerola |
| in the skin of cucumbers. It's in the skin of bell | | | | cherry. You can either take it supplementally as |
| peppers. It's the skin of tomatoes. It's in certain | | | | capsules or you add it onto your smoothies. You can |
| special herbs, which I'm going to name and you can | | | | literally put it in your water that you drink in your |
| drink this as a tea or take it in supplemental form and | | | | morning and it kind of sweetens the water. It |
| you will notice that it helps with your bone density. | | | | sweetens the water but doesn't sugarize the water. |
| And here are the herbs. One of them is called horse | | | | Kevin: Gotcha. |
| tail, horse tail and it's not a horse's tail. It's actually an | | | | David: Vitamin C is sweet but not sugary. So it |
| herb. Another one is nettle. Stinging nettles have | | | | makes your morning water easier to drink. So that's |
| been eaten by the druids in the U.K. for thousands of | | | | one thing, vitamin C. The next thing is, what I believe |
| years and it's one of the most important foods to | | | | to be, the greatest discovery in the last -- probably |
| eat if you know how to do it or if you juice it or you | | | | in the last hundred years in the field of nutrition other |
| can just dry it and make a tea out of it, which is | | | | than vitamin C and enzymes and that is sulfur, MSM, |
| what I'm recommending; horse tail, nettle, oat straw. | | | | Methylsulfonylmethane. MSM is a biologically available |
| The oat seed of the oat grass has a little straw | | | | form of sulfur that's naturally found in wild food, |
| around it. It has a little coating. It's the seed capsule. | | | | untended food. We don't really have access to that |
| That oat straw is one of the richest sources of | | | | hardly at all any more. I mean, almost all our food is |
| silicon. You can buy it in health food stores. You can | | | | grown on farms for us. It's not being watered |
| get in as extracts in health food stores. | | | | naturally by the rain. I'm talking about the natural |
| You can get it raw and make your own tea out of it. | | | | sulfur that's produced in the oceans that helps create |
| You combine those three together and you want | | | | clouds, then drops them on the land that we need |
| you can add alfalfa, which is also a great source of | | | | nutritionally in order to produce flexible collagen. Now |
| silicon. You can either make a tea out of that or you | | | | that in the world does that mean? It means that |
| can just eat those any way you can find them. And | | | | sulfur produces flexible skin and flexible muscle tissue. |
| you will find if you do three strong teas of that per | | | | It stops, in essence, wrinkling and increases the |
| day you will start increasing your bone density but | | | | juiciness of the collagen and the discs, the joints that |
| how? It's the silicon. Now, how does silicon increase | | | | basically separate our bones from each other. On top |
| calcium? I mean that doesn't make sense. It's | | | | of all that, it increases the growth of our hair, our |
| because our theory of minerals is incorrect. Our | | | | nails, so that we have thicker, richer growth of our |
| atomic theory is incorrect. And that is if you eat | | | | hair and nails. This can all be easily experienced within |
| silicon rich food your body, through the power of | | | | two weeks of taking MSM. |
| enzymes transmutates it into calcium, turns the silicon | | | | Kevin: It's going to grow like weeds. |
| into calcium. That was discovered by a great French | | | | David: It's really incredible and people who want thick |
| researcher by the name of Louis Curvan, a Nobel | | | | quick growth of their hair and nails are almost always |
| prize nominee, who wrote five books and 5,000 | | | | completely shocked by how powerful MSM can be. |
| pages of research on just this particular subject; how | | | | You can get it in capsule form. You can get it in a |
| silicon and calcium are related to each other. | | | | powder form. It's available in every single health food |
| It was very well honored in France and he is very | | | | store now. Once you start looking into it, and |
| intimately entwined in the science of what's going on | | | | especially when you take it, here's what you're going |
| in France; but because of the language barrier his | | | | to find out. You're going to find it's one of the most |
| research really never made it to the English-speaking | | | | important things you've ever taken. I have randomly |
| nations. | | | | polled hundreds of people about MSM. I almost |
| Kevin: Interesting when we're still taking calcium pills | | | | always to a T here from people who have taken it |
| from, you know, sea shells and everything. | | | | before. Oh, MSM changed my life. I've heard that |
| David: I recommend to god, you know, this is so | | | | dozens of times, that exact quote. Oh, MSM changed |
| engrained in our minds about calcium that if you are | | | | my life. |
| confused about this, get on the Internet and | | | | |
