Moment 181: 5 Things Your Body Is Probably Missing, That's Making You Sick! Gary Brecka

What are the societal and individual level things that we can be doing to prevent us even getting these chronic diseases? Like the simple, simple things.

Gary Brecka (0:14)

I'll tell you the simplest thing that we can do. First, we should think about having an invisible fence around us, right? Like a little force field. And we should filter things before they make it to the temple. Because either we can filter things for the temple, or we can let the temple be the filter. So you can drink tap water. And if you drink tap water, your body will filter out the fluoride, the chlorine, the microplastics, the pharmaceuticals. Or you can filter your water before you drink it, right?

And take one toxic load off your body. So what I would say is, probably five things that I would commit to doing on a regular basis. Number one is, upon waking, I would drink a mineralized water. I would take 10 ounces of water and I would add either a Celtic sea salt or a Baja gold salt to my water. The reason for that is that most of us are deficient in some or several of the trace minerals in our body. The boring ones, boron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium. And stir it up and just whack it back. The second thing I would do is...

Steven Bartlett (1:18)

You're not talking about table salt here?

Gary Brecka (1:19)

No, no, no. Not sodium chloride. No, I'm talking about Baja gold sea salt. That's probably the best salt that you can put in the human body because it has all 91 trace minerals. It's tested down to 250 parts per billion from microplastics and glyphosates. Only about 75% of that sodium crystal is actually sodium. The rest of them is all of these trace minerals. You can get very close to that with Celtic salt, right? And if you can't get Celtic salt, then you could move to a pink Himalayan sea salt. The problem with pink Himalayan sea salt recently is that a lot of it has heavy metals because it's coming out of China. So I would say the best salt is Baja gold, a great salt is Celtic salt, and a decent salt is pink Himalayan sea salt. Forget table salt. I would just get that permanently out of your life.

Steven Bartlett (2:07)

Okay, so number one, I have my Baja salt.

Gary Brecka (2:08)

Mineralize, mineralize. And then number two, I would take a DHEA EPA fish oil supplement or a fatty acid supplement with DHEA or EPA oil, an MCT oil. I would take a fatty acid oil in the morning.

Steven Bartlett (2:26)

An Omega supplement.

Gary Brecka (2:27)

An Omega.

Steven Bartlett (2:28)

Omega-3.

Gary Brecka (2:28)

An Omega-3 supplement. And then I would develop a morning routine that included the basics from mother nature. Sunlight, grounding, breath work, cold shower.

Steven Bartlett (2:38)

Okay, so I wanted to zoom in here on grounding.

Gary Brecka (2:43)

I'm a huge fan of grounding.

Steven Bartlett (2:44)

My girlfriend grounds and again, listen, my girlfriend's much smarter than I am at TransBiz because everything she says, I think I said this to you last time, everything she says to me, eventually I sit here with like a neuroscientist a year later and turns out she was absolutely right. And I thought she was a little bit cuckoo for thinking that getting outside in the morning and putting her feet on the ground were at all beneficial. But I've been told time and time again it is. What is grounding and why does it help?

Gary Brecka (3:08)

So we get three things from mother nature, right? We get magnetism from the earth, we get oxygen from the air, we get light from the sun. The further we get away from those things, the sicker we become.

Steven Bartlett (3:18)

‎Really?

Gary Brecka (3:18)

‎Yes, absolutely.

Steven Bartlett (3:19)

‎So the magnetism piece, it sounds like a spiritual cuckoo stuff.

Gary Brecka (3:24)

‎Yeah, I mean, probably 10,000 years ago, they probably thought the same thing about gravity, you know, but the earth has a low Gauss current, right? I mean, we were meant to spend 85% of our time outside. We spend 97% of our time indoors now. The truth is most of us are not getting enough sun. We're not getting too much sun. We're not getting enough sun.

And, you know, because of the way we eat and seed oils and everything that are that are oxidizing in our skin, our cancer rates are exploding, but not because of our sun exposures, because of our diet. And we could talk about that later. But when you touch the surface of the earth, when bare feet touch bare soil, grass, sand, we discharge into the earth. And by that, I mean, you actually change the polarity in the body, and this is measurable. In fact, if you want to do a little experiment, find somebody that has a microscope, a basic microscope, and get a slide and just take a prick, prick your finger and take a drop of your blood and put it on that slide, spear it around and look at it under the microscope. I think I have a video of this on my Instagram. And what you'll see when you look at your blood in real time is you'll see most of your red blood cells are stuck together and clumped up, not clotted, but they're attracted to each other. Because when cells have the same charge, they repel. When they repel, it increases the amount of surface area that that cell has to contact the outside environment. So now it can exchange waste, it can eliminate waste, detoxify, repair, can regenerate. So imagine that you have bloodstream full of red blood cells and they start to get opposite charges. So they attract. And when they attract, they touch, and everywhere that they touch, that cell loses surface area to exchange with the outside environment. When you touch the surface of the earth for a few minutes, you will repolarize those. Prick your finger 10 minutes after you come inside, put it back on that same slide, look at your blood. It's going to look like eggs slithering around in a bowl of oil. They will bump into each other and they'll be sliding around, but they will not be clumped together and stuck.
