glyphosate is the most commonly used a

pesticide herbicide and we were

conditioned as a individuals as health

providers to the fact that he's there

and maybe there's not too much and maybe

it's safe but it's like taking telling

somebody will poison you at low dosages

all the time and maybe it low dosages

it's not affected let's ditch the Quick

Fix and dive into today's conversation

all right welcome everybody my guest

today is Dr Isaac Elias Dr Elias is a

leading expert in the field of

Integrative Medicine specializing in

cancer detoxification immunity and

complex conditions he is a respected

physician researcher best-selling author

educator and Mind Body practitioner

Dr Eli's partners with the research

institutes including Harvard the

National Institutes of Health Columbia

and others to co-author studies on

integrative therapies for cancer heavy

metal toxicity and others

cancers infections and other pathogens

can develop resistance to treatment and

even Escape your body's immune defenses

Integrative Medicine opens new dollars

to healing and individualized strategies

that can outsmart even the most

aggressive conditions

welcome Dr Elias it's just a an honor to

have you here today I know you've got

just a plethora of information that

you're able to share and I hope we get a

touch on a bit of it

thank you for having me I'm really

excited and I love the name of your

podcast because it's so true we are so

habituated for the quick fix yes we

don't get sick weekly and it doesn't get

better quickly but but is when we talk

about the mind I will explain a little

bit more about the process towards the

end of the conversation but it's a great

name it's really for people to integrate

when they look at their own healing path

awesome well and it is it's it's it's

the whole idea and trying to help people

kind of understand that a little bit of

a journey is actually a very positive uh

way to you know address Wellness as well

as cancer or any other condition

somebody might kind of find themselves

dealing with so correct so share just

maybe a little bit more of your history

of What's led to where you you are today

yeah you know with the focus on

Integrative Medicine yeah I know I'm in

my early 60s moving to my mid 60s soon

in a few years and I finally wrote a

book that is a culmination of Decades of

my journey I started with meditation and

learning to condo in Korea when I was 15

years old and I started meditating since

then so I got about almost 48 years of

doing it wow and I'm a I'm a physician

I'm also a licensed acupunctuation I'm

fully training Chinese medicine I'm a

master of science and I I train

vertically so I trained in classical

Homeopathy and in herbology and a lot of

hands work and healing I'm really a

Healer that's really one of my main

qualities in the same time while having

a very broad background with Decades of

meditation 20 years of going to the

mountains for two to three months a year

and the in 10 years of doing half a day

Retreat and hours a day I'm also a

Bonafide researcher with a I now have a

very large NIH grant for research on the

removal of the survival Paradox protein

which I will talk about for sepsis and I

published dozens of pre-reviewed papers

so I have this integration of being a

bona fide leading scientist researcher

but being a clinician and having a very

broad-based understanding of health and

disease and what Wellness means

and it gives me flexibility of a feeling

of finding the door for different people

and I express it as as I was looking and

reviewing my Decades of training I came

with a very simplified concept which is

a concept of a survival paradox and

really what it is

that you know we are built to survive

each of us we are built is is the whole

being each organ down to the cellular

level down to the metabolism of the

mitochondria which there is a peaceful

metabolism normal in the survival

metabolism where we move into glycolysis

inefficient metabolism

so when we are going to a survival mode

because it's built in us to survive you

know and we all know it we haven't

automated sympathetic nervous system

response right it's either results in

fight which equates to inflammation

or it or it results in in flight or we

run away and we hide which equates to

creating a micro environment a biofilm a

notary of sclerotic a plaque an

environment where cancer can grow so the

Paradox is at what drives us to survive

actually shortens our life is involving

every acute and chronic disease

and creates uh and create inflammation

ongoing inflammation so we have the

automated response within a fraction of

a second but what I demonstrated in my

research is that our survivor protein

wake up also within minutes

if you've listened to this podcast you

know how often ozone therapy comes up I

personally have the simply 03 complete

kit and use it as a preventative measure

or when I come down with something so

whether it's ozone therapy at home or in

your clinic simply O3 has equipment for

your needs

if you are healing chronic illness or

biohacking for Optimal Health simply O3

will make getting started with ozone

therapy super easy go to simplyo3.com or

call 844-655-2524

use code fix to get 10 off that's

www.simplio as an oxygen3.com

and they wake up before the cytokine

storm that we're all aware of so now I

know a lot of people talk about the

cytokine storm and stopping inflammation

and immune disregulation but if you're

trying to deal with the cytokines it's

like you have a waterfall and you're

trying to stop it by putting a bucket at

the bottom doesn't work not very

efficient but if you can stop it at the

top

by shutting down the Survivor protein in

the key one that I've been researching

in made the key discoveries for almost

30 years and now has about 10 000

published papers galacting three if you

can stop it

then you'll get

very beneficial consequences so I

developed the first Galaxy 3 blocker

pector modified retrospecting is it 80

published papers and you look at the

research it's on so many conditions why

because it addresses survival product

but it's also chelate heavy metals okay

by into the microtalk so that's on one

level on the on our being level is how

we shift from a reactive survival

response

in it it's a survival reactivity

which is immediate which is a fighting

all right

into a responsiveness into just whatever

comes responds with open heart with love

with compassion

and we are built to do it so we can talk

about it later in the interview and so

this is a Survivor product so in the

book I take people through the Journey

of understanding the survival Paradox

how it works what it does how how to

block it and how to transform it in a

while the heart transforms it and then I

go over every major condition a lot

about cancer because it's my my kids

specialty but then really multiple

organs immunity and nervous system very

important neural inflammation a

microbiome and then I give solution no

point to talk about a problem if there

are no Solutions I talk about detox

which we'll discuss a lot today I talk

about Transforming Our skulls of

survival

which we all have from this life and

genetically and epigenetically my own

story with my grandfather being a

holocaust Survivor they affected me I

healed from it then I talk about freeing

it the door which is meditation so it's

a real journey because it offers a new

truly the feedback I get mostly from

practitioner Health Providers it's a new

paradigm and when you understand it then

afterwards you get 80 pages of protocols

but I don't give three steps four steps

five steps I allow the person to

transform their view on health and then

once they are there then I give them the

tools

that's awesome and you know I appreciate

I did get a chance to read through your

book and it is a great read and I just

really recommend it highly recommend it

uh when you ask the question at the

start of the book what the most

significant uh protein was I I didn't uh

I was thinking more of the hormonal uh

cortisol than I was proteins and so when

you were sharing so much on galactin 3

that was that was new to me and I really

appreciate the depth that you get into

that but that in that set I know we want

to kind of switch gears here a little

bit but before we go away specifically

specifically from your book the

connection between cortisol and

galactin-3 and the whole fight or flight

kind of not able to shut down that cycle

of of uh the body's reaction right so

cortisol comes a bit later you know we

already have we have you know quoted the

Israel like we're trying to put down the

fire so first of all when there is fire

we try to use the hose and so the

adrenal becomes you know the adrenals in

Chinese medicine we call them the the

Imperial fire they get mobilized and

they activate and then you got cortisol

which tries to put the flame down you

got other hormones that retain water and

retain salt and then the blood pressure

goes up and then you got

of course the adrenaline no adrenaline

which is the sympathetic nervous system

which interesting has a nervous system

part and an adrenal part that's why so

the cortisol what it does in the it

changes our metabolism yeah so we'll

have less inflammation but in a very

deep very heavy Price Right you've got a

weight gain and you got a you know you

got breakdown of tissue you get

breakdown of bone you got immune

dysregulation then you got cortisol

going up and looking on going up you've

got hyperglycemia we need more energy

then insulin starts to want to regulate

then you got really metabolic syndromes

the people with with inflammation with a

little bit more cortisol than we need to

we'll end up raising the insulin

creating insulin resistance which is one

of the key

here a really epidemics in this country

with another two three of them the

people are not as aware of and in many

levels you get you get metabolic

syndrome diabetes but you also get the

same effect in the nervous system and

you get Alzheimer you know and you get

because

the brain is not working as well

and so that's a much later stage if we

can modify

and attenuate the survival response

cortisol will not go up and so you'll

kind of you'll mitigate that

neurodegenerative process exactly so

there's well-known uh you know if I if I

take a second and maybe I can share okay

this is the pattern of the sympathetic

system where we're going to sympathetic

stress and we go down with rest

parasympathetic but with traumas with

stress we stay in the sympathetic High

tone right chemically so of course the

fight and flight drives really decreased

it really you know increased heart rate

dilated Airways I mean ends in long-term

damage and biochemically we then jump

into galactin 3 that changes the cell

metabolism I won't go into this and but

in general what happened with galactin 3

is this protein that gets excreted right

away from the article phase it binds to

different sugars and it creates this

lattice formation this this uh it

creates pentament it creates like a

coating a biofilminator so it literally

creates our micro environment under

which cancer can Thrive toxins can hide

and all these ligands all this red line

that you see these are nasty nasty

compounds that go into the tissue see

these are the different examples of

compound that will suppress the immune

system create a angiogenesis in cancer

and will get cancer cells to stick will

damage the brain like ng2 and gags so

you got this driver

that is really driving it's driving the

process so we often in medicine try to

go after one of these ligands in my list

when you blog electing three you are

disrupting this whole damaging process

the whole process right so it's Unique

so for example if we look at pector

stuff we look at modifiers with

respecting

yeah it's a unique binder it's true but

often when people take binders they have

reaction when you take a modified

introspecting you actually attenuating

the inflammatory response so it was a

wow I feel like myself

I I'm not as inflamed you know my my

memory is better my head is clear my

joints are better my blood pressure is

better why because we're attenuating the

survival driven inflammation immune

dysregulation

and that's important that's why

addressing electing three is actually

the most important supplement one can

take because it's fundamental it's

foundational for every conditional and

because of its very Universal effect you

can combine it with medication with

supplements with diet with lifestyle

with meditation with

with whatever we want because it it

gives the body the opportunity

to heal

so in in that in just a little Rabbit

Trail here when you consider the

um uh modified Citrus pectin is that

something that is primarily more

beneficial in the acute stages of the

fight or flight or even in The Chronic

where you've got this dysregulation

going on you can't shut the system down

classically modified sex perspecting was

specifically researched in The Chronic

setting the initial researcher modified

respecting was in cancer where you in

animals you created cancer and you gave

motivated perspective and you prevented

metastasis okay we are now presenting a

multi-centered trial on biochemical

relapse of prostate cancer

where we actually patients are motivated

with respecting and they took out the

prostate

they then the cancer started coming back

they took modified with respect in 15

grams a day and there was in after 18

months 90 percent of people nine zero

wow slower growth or stop of growth

compared to Baseline

it's our second paper first was the

sixth is our fourth paper but on this

study there was a six months follow-up

that's in 18 months follow what 18

months so what it really does it doesn't

kill the cancer it allows the body

to address the cancer which is so much

along the lines of your thinking you

know that's quite ditch the Quick Fix

make the change in the body to allow us

to heal a lot of the body to function

better that's why it's a foundational

it's a foundational a strategy and

because it's so inherent in innate in

our life the survival the survival

response we have other tools and we have

and we have to look at what will put us

into a survival mode it can be an

emotional trauma it can be an accident

it can be an epigenetic tendency from

past Generations

and it can be different toxins

and some of them will disrupt the gut

lining and when you disrupt the gut

lining you get molecules and compounds

that are not supposed to come right our

body because if you think about the

digestive system it's really not inside

our body it's one big tube yes that goes

there there's a microbiome that helps us

absorb what we need because not absorb

what we don't want it supports us as a

mutual relationship

and and yeah a synergistic effect which

is contrary to a survival response where

it's I survive at any cost and which

happened and then you get a microbiome

disruption and so what happens

now suddenly you get inflammation in the

gut lining inside the larger molecules

come in leaky gut and the body has to

survive and how does it survive to

create narrow inflammation so we got our

physical digestion of food water and we

got our mental digestion of thoughts

thinking you know strategy so naturally

there is a gut brain connection we don't

have to be Geniuses to figure out the

Clear Connection so then once you get

gut issue now you get nerve inflammation

and collecting three disrupts

the blood-brain barrier and it activates

microglia I write a lot about it I talk

a lot about it for a long time so you

get micro Glee activation microglia are

the cells that clean up the brain just

like the macrophage that clean up that

are the cleaners of the immune system

well when they clean they clean with

inflammation and they get stuck when we

have a sympathetic response if we can

relax enough listen to music pray

meditate be in nature we can calm down

when we get into a biochemical

biochemical response it doesn't turn off

as quickly yes so then you got ongoing

microglia activation ongoing

inflammation that affects every single

neuroinflammatory disease so for example

if we look at the Alzheimer's plaque

it is 10 to 20 times the concentration

of galactin 3 compared

to normal brain tissue wow and it will

activate study from the last few weeks

another one galaxies we will activate

them they're damaging ameloid production

in Alzheimer okay so you can get a sense

why it's so important but in the same

time neural inflammation

on the short term will drive cytokines

for example in in coving Long Haul you

know right the relationship between

coughing you get worse so uh so you

really can see they're cute so my

research is actually on sepsis in acute

kidney injury and what people die from

in the ICU I'm developing a column where

I can pull out Galatians 3 from the

plasma it's a medical device

and hopefully we'll get to clinical

trials in about two years and can save

millions of lives that would be a great

does that have anything to do with the

um therapeutic apheresis process that

you use or is that a different process

great question so is is the research in

the therapeutic references I also I'm

kind of labeled by the big affluence

organization as a disrupter meaning I I

find new ways of using things so I use

therapeutic phrase is not only for

removal of of cholesterol for

hypercholesterolemia but I use it for

addressing inflammatory conditions okay

and so the forest is available in the

United States right now pulls out

oxidized lipids

serial active protein fibrinogen also a

significant percentage of cytokines and

coagulation factors so what it does it

allows the body to recalibrate

which is very important so when you are

really sick

and your body is not able to detoxify

Parts because so many people have

limited detoxification but also if you

are very sick and you are functioning in

a survival mode and you are producing a

lot of byproducts it's like you can't

catch your breath you know it's like it

never it's never ending and in this

sense when you get therapeutic

conferences and the filtration is done

outside of your body yes you get a

chance to take a deep breath your body

cut ends up being in a place it was when

you were a teenager at least for days or

weeks or hours or whatever it is and

then if you if the health provider is

wise and it's really it's a very unique

specialty and really the leader on it on

a global level in this approach

when they do certain IVs when you do

certain healing strategy when you end

sort of supplements so the medication

whatever is needed you allow the body to

recalibrate

and it's very critical for example

during cancer therapies but okay but

with Lyme disease with autoimmunity with

and very effective with mycotoxins and

pesticides because many of them are

positively charged and many of them are

are lipid soluble they are they dissolve

in fatty tissue especially on the

organophosphates and some heavy metals

so you are pulling it out without having

to work to pull it out and it's very

interesting you know that what happened

my Approach is I do two treatments one

close to the other which is not usual so

you think wow you just filtered the

whole plasma even more than the volume

of the plasma you'll treat somebody in

two days it will be much cleaner right

almost universally

over 95 of the time you look at the big

after the second one it's much more it's

full of stuff why because the organs get

a signal oh my God

the blood is clean and can finally dump

dump their load off exactly so that's

why the second treatment is very

important so yeah it's really a turning

point I mean it serves me very well in

my healing Journey uh kind of amazing I

found the therapy for others it actually

benefit myself and I do it all the time

but that's more on the on the on the

high-tech level at Amitabha clinic but

we really have to understand that part

of it the beginning of it is

understanding the survival power and the

continuation of this is understanding

how can we decrease the triggers

that trigger an abnormal survival

response and one of the big ones

relating three as the protein is the key

one but what can we remove so we've got

to address pesticides

is part of our well-being because all of

us have it 100 of us well and that

really leads into the question that I

know we want to spend a little time on

and uh you know one of the the toxic

toxic substances that we're exposed to

like you said that has such an impact on

our our gut biome is glyphosate and I

know you've done a lot of research on it

and it's health risk I know that's one

of them so maybe this is a good time to

transition into glyphosate specifically

yeah of course so so and you know

glyphosate is the most commonly used the

pesticide herbicide and we were

conditioned as the individuals as health

providers to the fact that he's there

and maybe there's not too much and maybe

it's safe but it's like taking telling

somebody will poison you at low dosages

all the time and maybe it loads dosages

it's not affected it's not as bad and

recognized wow you know I myself I did I

do a lot of work in heavy metal

detoxification I published on it but I

realized wow we are accepting the fact

that they are pesticides in our body and

it just it's not it's not acceptable so

if we look at the amount of pesticide

that we actually using in our you know

in in in our body I mean it's really

it's it's scary let me just share a

slide sure so if we look at glyphosate

you can see this is 131 million

kilograms it's one pound a person per

person per year and wow and it

penetrates into our water table and so

over you know decades you can imagine

and if you live next to a cornfield to a

soy field you can live in a beautiful

place next to a golf course if they want

the grass to stay healthy and they are

you know and and Etc next to an orchard

so you're bombarded with glyphosate but

look

look how many other toxic yeah they are

and and the in different environmental

toxins you know and so they all

bioaccumulate

and one one of the issues is present in

oats in wheat in corn and soy in exhaust

emissions you know

right or the coin-based ethanol and then

but as you said it destroys the healthy

microbiome population in the GI tract

and then when it does it the most common

thing you know and then it affects

chronic diseases chronic kidney diseases

17 of the population this biosis cancer

neurological disease and more and it

promotes antibiotic resistance you get

glyphosate you got mycotoxins you got

some gut sensitivity now you have

abnormal microbiome driven by glyphosate

you get this biosis you're not

responding to antibiotics which can also

throw off your your gut and as a result

it really it really affects your guttles

in so many different ways and then of

course naturally we we we we we we we

talked about it that when we have

gut inflammation we have never

inflammation you see the connection

right and the interesting thing about

glyphosate it's very similar in

structure to glycine our smallest amino

acid

and that is present in every protein

that helps us generate glutathione our

main antioxidant figure antioxidant and

it's also a neuroprotective narrow

inhibitory a transmitter so glyphosate

can exchange with glycines there's

argument how much it exchanges in Dr

Cena a leading research in glyphosate

maybe the leading is

strongly things I mean with great

certainty based on the Decades of

research that it does exchange and

instead of getting a narrow protective

you get a narrow excitator so if you

look at areas that spray a lot for

example the Central Valley in California

okay bikes in ADHD you see spikes in

autism

right you also see

this this poison coming to the thyroid

increased thyroid disease going into the

kidneys naturally the kidneys is to

filter it all the time right right

soluble so you get increased chronic

kidney disease and the most common thing

you get gluten sensitivity celiac

disease so I'm sure you have patience as

I do yes who go to Italy say oh my God

Isaac I can eat pasta I can eat bread I

have no side effects well guess what

there's no glyphosate it's illegal even

in Mexico it's illegal so you get

glyphosate and then you get it in a

formulation which is not regulated with

a lot of toxic stuff to create this the

fluid or the powder that you are using

for the spring and if you look at the

flat area and there's glyphosate sprayed

in one place it will go

miles and miles across so you can eat

organic and grow it in your garden

especially if there's an uphill you know

things above you like like Vineyards you

know sure they don't want to grasp

between the the lines of the you know of

of of the of the grapes right hey I hope

you're enjoying our conversation uh with

Dr Elias today

um we're going to uh resume this next

time so I hope you join us next time on

Ditch the Quick Fix and if you're ready

to take the next step head on over to

ditch the quickfix.com and there's much

more information there to help you

become your best health Advocate and

I'll see you next time

[Music]

thank you
