Dr. Paul Savage returns to discuss the invisible threat of toxins on Hustle and Flowchart. Having spent three decades in the medical field, Dr. Savage shares his journey from a stressed ER doctor to a leading figure in health optimization. This episode focuses on how toxins affect our health, the importance of measuring them, and ways to combat these threats using innovative solutions like plasma exchange. Join us as we delve into the steps for a healthier lifestyle and the groundbreaking efforts led by Dr. Savage to address these issues.
Dr. Paul Savage started his career as an ER doctor in Detroit, working long, stressful hours and neglecting his health. By the end of his ten-year stint, his weight had increased drastically, and he was on multiple medications due to poor lifestyle choices exacerbated by stress. This tough lesson prompted him to pursue better health practices. He went back to school, learned about nutrition, exercise, and wellbeing, and underwent a drastic health transformation. As he adopted healthier habits, he realized the need to educate others on maintaining good health and founded BodyLogic MD, which expanded to 70 centers nationwide, focusing on nutrition, exercise, and hormone replacement.
Toxins have become a pervasive threat, with more than 50,000 different substances in the environment and 200 billion tons of chemicals used annually in the United States. Dr. Savage explains how everyday items, from the food we eat to the air we breathe, are contaminated with dangerous chemicals. For instance, water is identified as the number one source of toxins. The alarming stats reveal that these substances lead to serious health issues, including cancer, heart disease, and early-onset Alzheimer's. Dr. Savage stresses that toxins often exist invisibly in our bodies, with symptoms manifesting as severe diseases.
To combat these invisible threats, Dr. Savage emphasizes the necessity of measuring toxins in our body. On average, people now carry 13 toxins above optimum levels compared to just three a decade ago. Testing can help identify specific toxins, guiding effective treatment plans. This helps prevent severe health outcomes by taking action based on individual toxin levels. Dr. Savage offers a comprehensive test at MD Lifespan to assess toxin presence in urine, pinpointing specific substances affecting health.
Plasma exchange offers a novel solution to removing multiple toxins from the body. Dr. Savage describes it as an "oil change" for humans, where plasma is replaced with a clean version, albumin, enabling the body to regenerate non-toxic plasma. This process, repeated several times, effectively reduces toxin levels. Research supports its efficacy in slowing or reversing the progression of diseases like Alzheimer's. These procedures offer transformative potential for managing or reversing damage by eliminating the buildup of harmful substances.
Dr. Savage outlines practical steps for minimizing toxin exposure. He recommends filtering water, cleaning the air at home, and choosing toxin-free foods. He also provides guides on cleaning up one’s living environment available on MD Lifespan's website. Awareness and proactive changes are vital to reducing toxin intake, coupled with measuring one's toxicity levels. Simple actions, such as using HEPA filters and reverse osmosis water filters, can drastically reduce exposure.
Dr. Savage calls for entrepreneurs to help spread awareness about the toxin crisis and its health impacts. As key change-makers, they can leverage their platforms to educate and inform larger communities. Highlighting the need for research and advocacy, Dr. Savage invites support for ongoing studies and projects to further validate and improve treatments like plasma exchange. The entrepreneurial community's engagement is crucial for amplifying this urgent message and initiating change on a larger scale.
Dr. Paul Savage shed light on the looming crisis of toxins affecting health globally. By measuring toxin levels and adopting preventive measures, individuals can safeguard their health before the first symptom, which could be a severe disease, appears. Dr. Savage’s work at MD Lifespan, including cutting-edge solutions like plasma exchange, presents a compelling case for proactive health management. This episode underscores the urgent need for awareness and action, making it essential listening for anyone invested in maintaining long-term wellbeing and health. Dr. Savage's insights push us to prioritize wellness and prepare for a healthier future.

From signing 10,000 death certificates as an ER doctor
Speaker:to nearly becoming one himself.
Speaker:Only at the age of 38, Dr. Paul Savage, who's our
Speaker:guest today on the show.
Speaker:He thought he knew medicine, but that wasn't until he discovered
Speaker:that there's an invisible threat affecting every single American
Speaker:and most people around the world.
Speaker:And also he broke this to me.
Speaker:This blew my mind that today there are over 150, Thousand
Speaker:toxins in our environment.
Speaker:A lot of those actually are inside our homes, inside our offices.
Speaker:he actually said that one of the first symptoms that you see are
Speaker:diseases like cancer or Alzheimer's and these things that are happening
Speaker:a lot sooner in people's lives.
Speaker:But the thing is, he actually came out of retirement.
Speaker:This guy's an entrepreneur.
Speaker:at heart.
Speaker:He's done what?
Speaker:Three startups now.
Speaker:And he actually came out of retirement to solve this problem.
Speaker:And he figured out a way to basically give an oil
Speaker:change to your body, to reverse a lot of this stuff.
Speaker:And it's pretty mind blowing.
Speaker:The stats and the, uh, the studies that are coming out that
Speaker:show that this is working are blowing a lot of people's minds.
Speaker:And it's really cool.
Speaker:So he talks about how the first thing you got to do
Speaker:is you need to actually make this thing, not invisible.
Speaker:You need to test it.
Speaker:You need to get the data.
Speaker:That's actually what I'm doing right now.
Speaker:I'm waiting for my results, but he is giving you the
Speaker:opportunity to do the same.
Speaker:So his company MD Lifespan is awesome.
Speaker:I actually work closely with them.
Speaker:So I've got to learn a lot about what they do
Speaker:over the last year or so.
Speaker:And, uh, pretty soon I'll share my toxin test results
Speaker:But he wanted to give you a really great opportunity to get a
Speaker:good chunk of money off on their toxin test and talk package.
Speaker:He's saying everyone's got to get these data points on themselves.
Speaker:So you know what you're up against in this world.
Speaker:That's very toxic and it's only getting worse.
Speaker:So again, us as entrepreneurs, we're always optimizing everything.
Speaker:You got to optimize yourself.
Speaker:And, uh, you know, I, I went a little longer right now because
Speaker:this means a lot to me and I've learned how this can really change
Speaker:a lot of lives and, you know, my family has been affected by cancers
Speaker:and early, you know, heart issues and things like that, that have.
Speaker:Knocked a lot of my loved ones out of life way too early.
Speaker:So do this.
Speaker:This is why I love having Dr. Savage on.
Speaker:This is the second episode he's been on.
Speaker:I think it was about a year ago.
Speaker:So if you want to go learn even more about him, then go
Speaker:check it out on the podcast or over at hustleandflowchart.
Speaker:com.
Speaker:All right.
Speaker:Enjoy the episode here with Dr. Paul Savage.
Speaker:Dr. Paul, how are you doing today?
Speaker:I'm happy.
Speaker:We're round two.
Speaker:It's been far too long.
Speaker:It has, Joe.
Speaker:Thanks for having me on again.
Speaker:I look forward to catching up and I look forward to talking to your
Speaker:entrepreneurs and giving them some really good, sound advice.
Speaker:You did the last time you left an impact for me.
Speaker:Uh, you know, we talked a little bit, I think,
Speaker:about microplastics then.
Speaker:Now it's become much more of a conversation.
Speaker:Just toxins in general, high performance, you know, how
Speaker:we actually are in control.
Speaker:Of our own being and yeah, you are doing the work.
Speaker:You're on the front line You've been on the front
Speaker:lines for you know, a lot of
Speaker:For three decades, three decades now, yeah.
Speaker:So I mean
Speaker:Yelling for three decades about protect your health, protect
Speaker:your sleep, manage your stress, clean up your life, clean up
Speaker:your environment, you got to.
Speaker:let's take us back because I doubt everyone's heard the first
Speaker:episode we did which was great and I recommend it It'll be linked up.
Speaker:Yeah, it'll be easy to find but you know, take me back to the er doctor
Speaker:days where you were Overwhelmed you were stressed you were smoking you
Speaker:were doing all these things that You I know you're not doing now.
Speaker:Um, what was the moment that you had that shift, that change?
Speaker:Well, you know, um, coming out of a small Midwestern town,
Speaker:um, and into a big metropolis of Detroit was shock enough.
Speaker:Uh, but after having gone through medical school and I did my training
Speaker:at the world's largest trauma center in Detroit, um, and it was,
Speaker:you know, it's, it's a war zone.
Speaker:I mean, to be honest, it was the 1980s.
Speaker:Detroit was the mirror capital of the world.
Speaker:And that's where I got my training and I went on to become, um, the
Speaker:attending at night on some of the largest trauma centers in the world.
Speaker:Um, in the course of 10 years, I signed 10, 000 death certificates.
Speaker:Um, it was, it was an intense job, and I really didn't learn a lot
Speaker:of stress management techniques.
Speaker:So I was so into my job that I put everything else second.
Speaker:I didn't work out because I worked the night shift.
Speaker:I would get home at 8 a. m. and I might have two or three
Speaker:cocktails to wind myself down.
Speaker:I smoked because I was stressed at work.
Speaker:Um, by the time I finished the 10 years, I'd gone from
Speaker:150 pounds up to 267 pounds.
Speaker:Ooh, man, 38.
Speaker:My whole family dies by 65 from heart disease.
Speaker:Um, so at that point it was, uh, I went to my doctors and he was like,
Speaker:you know, you're really unhealthy.
Speaker:I was like, yeah, he goes, I'm going to tell you, you're
Speaker:going to have a heart attack in the next seven years.
Speaker:If you don't do something different, forget about making 60, 65,
Speaker:you're never going to get close.
Speaker:And I really took that to heart and I went, you know what?
Speaker:He's right.
Speaker:And he said, the magic word said, every doctor says to
Speaker:every patient, you need to eat better and get some exercise.
Speaker:I walked out of his place and I realized in minutes I
Speaker:didn't know how to do that.
Speaker:I was never the sports guy, I was always the book guy.
Speaker:You know, and I was always, and I never had problems with weight.
Speaker:But in the 10 years I put on all that weight from all the
Speaker:stress and everything that was going on and not sleeping well
Speaker:and all these different things.
Speaker:I had a laundry list of medical problems by the time I was
Speaker:38, including heart disease.
Speaker:And 7 different, 7 different medicines and I was like, I
Speaker:gotta do something different.
Speaker:But I literally had to go back to school.
Speaker:I had to find a nutritionist.
Speaker:I had to find an exercise coach.
Speaker:Then I had to find some doctors who would actually educate me on
Speaker:what it means to be health and well, like Andy Weil and Pam Smith.
Speaker:And some of the people have been, you know, Ornish and Pritkent.
Speaker:Um, I got taught by the best and I took all, and I'm a data aggregator,
Speaker:so that's my whole entrepreneur.
Speaker:Everybody goes, what do you, what do you build?
Speaker:Anything that has to do with me using data to make something better.
Speaker:Um, so I took all that information and my.
Speaker:change in the year was I lost 70 pounds of fat, but
Speaker:I'm 30 pounds of muscles.
Speaker:But the most prominent thing was the lights came back on.
Speaker:And that's all I can tell you is up to that point, I was living in
Speaker:a cycle like a hamster and I'd get up and go to work and do stuff.
Speaker:I'd come home.
Speaker:I'd be tired to go to bed and get it up.
Speaker:And I really didn't give a crap about much of anything.
Speaker:Uh, it was just work, and all work.
Speaker:And, um, I really was unhappy, and I was short tempered.
Speaker:Um, and, uh, I was angry.
Speaker:And, uh, I didn't have any relationships that were
Speaker:really bonded to me because I was too much into my work.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:And through all this process, then I got so much better.
Speaker:I went into the emergency room one day and said, I'm leaving.
Speaker:I'm giving you my notice of a big high position.
Speaker:They're like, what are you going to go do?
Speaker:I said, I'm going to go open a clinic for guys and teach
Speaker:guys how to get healthy.
Speaker:And they're like, insurance doesn't pay for that.
Speaker:I said, no, they're going to pay cash.
Speaker:And like, And nobody will pay cash for that.
Speaker:Well, but, and that's the whole thing is I left in early 2000
Speaker:and by 2006, I had 70 centers nationwide called BodyLogicMD and
Speaker:I was treating guys and women, um, teaching them nutrition and
Speaker:exercise and hormone replacement and all the things that we knew about
Speaker:that time to get yourself healthy and had a great time building it.
Speaker:By the time we got up to 70 centers, my business partner,
Speaker:who is my brother, Didn't want to build a software system, and
Speaker:we needed that to grow further.
Speaker:We just didn't have the technology at that point.
Speaker:This was 2007.
Speaker:So I ended up sharing my, selling my shares to him, and I went out
Speaker:and built a software company.
Speaker:Now, the interesting thing is, in building all those 70
Speaker:centers, I lost my health again.
Speaker:I got so into the work.
Speaker:I got so into the project.
Speaker:I, I didn't, my exercise got pushed out of the way.
Speaker:I pretty much started eating on the fly again and it wasn't
Speaker:very long until I'm up over 200 pounds, 230 pounds again
Speaker:and not feeling in great shape.
Speaker:And by the time I left body logic and the body
Speaker:logic MD was named company.
Speaker:By the time I left it, I spent about six months doing nothing except
Speaker:getting my bearings back to school.
Speaker:Why did I slip up?
Speaker:And the answer, the answer is very, very easy.
Speaker:Mindfulness.
Speaker:I forgot to keep myself first.
Speaker:And my habit is to always put work first.
Speaker:And I know that's a lot of the guys and a lot of the women out
Speaker:there are doing the same thing.
Speaker:They, they forget there's an order to the universe.
Speaker:And whether you believe in a God or a higher power, let me
Speaker:tell you something, there's something bigger than you.
Speaker:And we can all agree that a community, something's bigger than
Speaker:you, above you, then there's you.
Speaker:And then there's your family and friends, and then there's
Speaker:work and everything else.
Speaker:And if you don't keep that order in alignment, you're going to get sick.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:what I did.
Speaker:I put work at the top of the list.
Speaker:Um, and then everything above me.
Speaker:And so, I got sick again, so I had to go back and reconstruct
Speaker:everything I did before.
Speaker:Luckily, Um, the habits were there.
Speaker:I lost them, but they came back relatively simple as soon as
Speaker:I realized what I was doing wrong and I got healthy again.
Speaker:And then I went out and built a software company and we had 6
Speaker:million users and I sold that off.
Speaker:Then I went out and built 27 centers more and I sold those off.
Speaker:And then I retired at 60, feeling pretty damn good
Speaker:about myself having done that.
Speaker:A lot in the world of medicine on proving vitamins work, getting
Speaker:steroids out of the steroid act, proving, you know, proving these
Speaker:lab tests for your GI system and the microbiome actually are
Speaker:functional and you need to know what your gut is if you want to
Speaker:know what you are and putting all of these things together with two
Speaker:university fellowship programs to teach other doctors how to do this.
Speaker:It was an amazing trip and I thought, you know, I'm going
Speaker:to go retire into Brazil now.
Speaker:I'm going to lie in the sun and I'm going to think of what to do next.
Speaker:And that's kind of where the story starts.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:MD lifespan.
Speaker:That's where we're at now.
Speaker:And, uh, it said behind you and then I've been doing some work with you.
Speaker:So I do know it quite well.
Speaker:And it's fascinating.
Speaker:You know, when we first had that first, uh, conversation on this
Speaker:show, I didn't know as much, but now and pretty soon I'll
Speaker:be, I'll be getting the toxin test done, which I know that's
Speaker:something that you offer as well.
Speaker:It's kind of like the starting point, right?
Speaker:And we'll talk about that shortly.
Speaker:I don't want to, I don't want to leave there yet because I want to
Speaker:talk about setting the scene because It seemed like you had a shift,
Speaker:you know, in that laying on the beach out there in Brazil, feeling
Speaker:good, eating healthy food, right?
Speaker:Toxin free food for the most part.
Speaker:I'm
Speaker:Pretty much.
Speaker:And the nutrients The nutrient value of the food in Brazil is
Speaker:twice as high as that in the United States because they don't
Speaker:use, they don't use pesticides.
Speaker:They don't use herbicides.
Speaker:They still rotate and burn crops.
Speaker:They do all the right things to keep the ground healthy that we
Speaker:don't do in the United States.
Speaker:We just keep plowing it over and adding ammonia nitrate and
Speaker:basically we're depleted the soil, which is why it's really the real
Speaker:quick story is when we bought our house and we bought it furnished,
Speaker:But the furnishing of the kitchen was only a pot and two forks.
Speaker:That's what we had a pot too.
Speaker:So we went out to the store cause nothing was open and
Speaker:we bought some chicken.
Speaker:We thought we're going to boil chicken, right?
Speaker:We just boiled the chicken.
Speaker:Just simple, best flavored chicken you've ever had.
Speaker:I mean, it was years before I'm like, holy, we're both
Speaker:looking at each other.
Speaker:Like, holy crap, this is so good.
Speaker:And
Speaker:like a different color and everything, huh?
Speaker:well, I mean, it's just, you know, the, the fact is our
Speaker:eggs in Brazil are orange.
Speaker:on the inside.
Speaker:Here they're pale yellow.
Speaker:The chicken, the chicken there is juicy and it tastes like chicken.
Speaker:Here it's kind of like dried cardboard.
Speaker:You get a chicken breast and it's like, yeah, it doesn't have really
Speaker:any good flavor to it because we pack all these chickens together,
Speaker:we give them a whole bunch of antibiotics, steroids, yet in Brazil
Speaker:they don't do any of that stuff.
Speaker:And so it's just the difference between the fruits when you put them
Speaker:in your mouth and they explode and the fruits here you put them and
Speaker:it's obvious, but it happens with every traveler who leaves the United
Speaker:States, if you go to France or any of the European Union, because they
Speaker:don't use any of the toxins and those and their food chain either.
Speaker:Or South America almost entirely is out of that loop because they
Speaker:don't let DuPont, Dow, Monsanto, any of those guys in there.
Speaker:And you sit there and you get, eat the food and you just realize what
Speaker:a difference has it changed in the last 30 years in the United States.
Speaker:And food is your best medicine.
Speaker:If you don't have good quality food, you're not, you're not
Speaker:doing what you need to do to keep yourself healthy.
Speaker:I mean, that's the first line of therapy against everything bad.
Speaker:yeah, every day and I can relate I remember going spending some time
Speaker:in Spain even Morocco had chicken there Yeah, the eggs are all yellow
Speaker:The chicken tastes completely different because it was farmed
Speaker:right there in Moroccan Yeah, the house and property had cut off
Speaker:and cooked and it was amazing.
Speaker:Yeah,
Speaker:You can, you can still get that quality food here in the
Speaker:United States, but you have to know where to purchase
Speaker:absolutely.
Speaker:And one of the things we'll do is make sure you have a link so that
Speaker:all your readers can come in to get our guides, because we have
Speaker:guidebooks regarding how to clean up your water, how to clean up
Speaker:your food, how to clean up your air, how to clean up your house,
Speaker:how to clean up your consumer products, because you don't need,
Speaker:most people don't need plasma exchanges, which we'll talk about,
Speaker:but what they do need is knowledge.
Speaker:Yes Yes, That's what took you out of retirement, not to burst
Speaker:the bubble here, but you know, we have a toxin crisis and I've
Speaker:learned it a lot from you, but I mean, let's just flip on any
Speaker:kind of media at this point.
Speaker:It's being talked about big media, small media, all of the above.
Speaker:So tell me about, I read a stat and I think it was from you, but also
Speaker:I've checked it in other places.
Speaker:It's like 144, 000 different toxins that are in our
Speaker:environment.
Speaker:we're over 150, 000 now in our environment, and we're over 200
Speaker:billion tons of chemicals dumped in America alone every year.
Speaker:Jeez.
Speaker:So what
Speaker:Take in that, take in that number for a minute.
Speaker:200 billion tons.
Speaker:2 billion tons that, that,
Speaker:200 billion tons of chemicals are used in the United States
Speaker:on our farmlands every year.
Speaker:I think it was our last chat.
Speaker:You talked about how it was like the middle of America,
Speaker:but it's expanding out and it's that what you're speaking
Speaker:I mean, if we're talking about the pesticide herbicides, it's,
Speaker:it started in the, in the Ohio Valley, Mississippi Valley,
Speaker:and now it's gone worldwide.
Speaker:If you're talking about the industrial chemicals, like
Speaker:the PFAs, that started on the coast and it's going inward.
Speaker:So, it really depends on which toxin you're talking about,
Speaker:on how it got distributed through the United States.
Speaker:But, you look at the statistics in the world, uh, most
Speaker:polluted countries, the United States, China, and the UAE
Speaker:are one, two, and three last.
Speaker:We're dead last.
Speaker:So what do we do about that?
Speaker:I mean, that's a loaded question, of course,
Speaker:Well, I mean, they, what we have to do about that is get
Speaker:knowledge around so that people start understanding what Stephen
Speaker:Hawking said before he died.
Speaker:Stephen Hawking was interviewed about a month before he died, and
Speaker:they asked him, what is the most existential threat to mankind?
Speaker:Is it AI?
Speaker:And he said, no.
Speaker:They said, climate change?
Speaker:No.
Speaker:Nuclear war?
Speaker:No.
Speaker:What is it?
Speaker:He goes, pollution and our stupidity to it, and the problem is we passed
Speaker:that milestone ten years ago.
Speaker:In other words, he's right.
Speaker:About 2015, things changed.
Speaker:And the level of toxins in our environment came to
Speaker:be such a point that now everybody in America is toxic.
Speaker:Even the government will admit that when they talk
Speaker:about the forever chemicals.
Speaker:99 percent of people have a forever chemical.
Speaker:That's a PFA.
Speaker:PFA's are things like, things that make things
Speaker:non stick and non greasy.
Speaker:But the problem is it's a chain of carbon, uh, carbon atoms
Speaker:with a fluoride on the bottom.
Speaker:And the thing about it, you can't break it down.
Speaker:That's impossible to break.
Speaker:That's why it makes it so slippery.
Speaker:And once it's in you, you can't get rid of it.
Speaker:It's forever a chemical in you.
Speaker:And up to this point, even on the CDC website, talking
Speaker:about PFAs, they say there is no way to get them out.
Speaker:The best we can do is avoid putting them in, but there's now
Speaker:200, 000 PFAs in our environment, and that's gone up from 5,
Speaker:000 in the last four years.
Speaker:Oh my gosh.
Speaker:So we know.
Speaker:slowing down.
Speaker:I would imagine.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:It's, it's actually ramping up.
Speaker:And that's the problem is in the next 10 years, we're gonna double
Speaker:the toxicity of every American.
Speaker:Now, we did a study in Chicago of 500 healthy people between
Speaker:the age of 45 and 70, and we measured their toxins.
Speaker:Half women, half men out of a hundred of the most common toxins.
Speaker:Now get this, we can only measure a hundred out of 150,000.
Speaker:Okay?
Speaker:So we're measuring one less than one 1000.
Speaker:of a percent of the, of the whole thing, or sorry, one 10th
Speaker:of a percent of the whole thing.
Speaker:Um, and the average number of toxins in people 10 years ago was three.
Speaker:The average number of toxins per person now is 13 of a hundred
Speaker:that they have in levels that are considered higher than optimum,
Speaker:you know, whatever, optimum, optimum zero, optimum zero.
Speaker:These ranges have changed in the last 20 years because every
Speaker:time the government measures the scale they up the numbers and
Speaker:now that becomes a normal range.
Speaker:But if we compare the numbers of today from 40 years ago,
Speaker:everybody is like super toxic.
Speaker:that's the part that I'm trying to get out to the message to people
Speaker:is you don't know what toxins you have in you because you know what
Speaker:the first symptom of toxins are?
Speaker:what is it?
Speaker:Cancer.
Speaker:They're toxic.
Speaker:Alzheimer's, uh, heart attack, as your first symptom is a disease,
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Bad one too.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:It
Speaker:and a bad one.
Speaker:I mean, it's like, I have, that's why we're seeing the
Speaker:cancer in the 50 year olds that we've never seen before.
Speaker:And these cancer are highly aggressive out of the gate.
Speaker:is there a common type of cancer that you're seeing pop up earlier?
Speaker:The gastric cancers are the ones that are, we
Speaker:started seeing the most.
Speaker:Now, three years ago, the government put out a notice that
Speaker:we're starting to see gastric cancers, stomach, esophageal,
Speaker:colon, in people under the age of 50 that we'd never seen before,
Speaker:and they're much more aggressive.
Speaker:There were four cancers they listed.
Speaker:The next year, they listed 17 cancers that are much, and this
Speaker:year they're going to be listing about 36 cancers, and the number
Speaker:is going to keep going up because toxins are inducing gastric cancer.
Speaker:Every sort of cancer.
Speaker:Because toxins are, by nature, carcinogens.
Speaker:it's, it's almost like there's, yeah, I'm thinking of like
Speaker:entrepreneurs like us and the ones listening, watching, we optimize
Speaker:so much in our life, you know, and, and that's kind of where
Speaker:we, like, we get so sucked into let's, let's make it better,
Speaker:or let's solve these problems.
Speaker:But this is an invisible threat that we are living in.
Speaker:We're.
Speaker:It's, how do we, it's, it's so hard to overlook this,
Speaker:but we just don't see it.
Speaker:So it's,
Speaker:I find it so difficult as well, you know?
Speaker:But there's a hundred percent.
Speaker:I mean, 40 years ago, we used to talk about hypertension being
Speaker:the silent killer because people didn't take their blood pressure.
Speaker:People really didn't know.
Speaker:Then we talked about diabetes being the silent killer because
Speaker:people had low grade because type 2 diabetes didn't exist 60 years ago.
Speaker:Really?
Speaker:It's been a phenomenon of the last 60 years.
Speaker:Which is probably also linked to the toxins as well.
Speaker:But, and then we talked about diabetes being the silent killer.
Speaker:But now we know people measure their blood sugar.
Speaker:So the common thread between an unknown threat becoming a
Speaker:known threat is measuring it.
Speaker:And that's what people aren't doing yet.
Speaker:They're not measuring their toxins.
Speaker:If they measure their toxins, then you can act.
Speaker:so describe how things are measured.
Speaker:Cause I know MD lifespan, you and your, your whole team,
Speaker:you have a test for this.
Speaker:The toxin test.
Speaker:I know you also have a, I don't know if you even want it.
Speaker:Let's describe it.
Speaker:But I also want to quickly just tell people, here's a way to go get it.
Speaker:Uh, but lay the scene.
Speaker:What is it?
Speaker:How does it work?
Speaker:Toxin testing, you can test anything.
Speaker:You can test your saliva, your blood, your urine,
Speaker:your stool, your hair.
Speaker:There's, it doesn't really matter which way you do it.
Speaker:Just with, make sure that you do a validated lab
Speaker:and you have a reputant.
Speaker:I can list a dozen different ones.
Speaker:Now, we have a test that's listed on our website that gives you
Speaker:109 different of the most common toxins of the whole spectrum.
Speaker:And we're talking about PFAs, and we're talking about heavy
Speaker:metals, mold toxins, phthalates, phenols, volatile chemicals.
Speaker:You get the whole broad spectrum that you can do with
Speaker:a simple urine test at home.
Speaker:You get up, you pee in the cup in the morning, you send the tube
Speaker:off, four weeks later you get a report with 110 different toxins.
Speaker:I mean, that's easy enough.
Speaker:So maybe
Speaker:you're gonna find out.
Speaker:You're gonna
Speaker:I'm like, I'm going to report back.
Speaker:I'll probably time it out.
Speaker:I'll either put it in this episode as an intro or
Speaker:splice it in something.
Speaker:I'll be sharing my results as long as I'm not super frightened by them.
Speaker:Um, I try to live well, 150,
Speaker:The average number of toxins, the average number of toxins in the
Speaker:Chicagoland area was 13, with 5 of them being in the above 95th
Speaker:percentile, and 8 of them being in the 75th percentile above it.
Speaker:So, anything above 75 percent is where we start talking about
Speaker:you're in the upper percentiles of these level of toxins as
Speaker:compared to other Americans in the world, or in the United States.
Speaker:But there's a difference also between looking at the various
Speaker:toxins, because some toxins are worse than other toxins.
Speaker:The toxins that are carcinogens and the ones that cause oxidative
Speaker:stress and mitochondrial damage, they're by far the worst.
Speaker:But there's also ones that mess with your hormones, there's ones
Speaker:that burn cellular membranes, there's ones that, you know, there's
Speaker:just a whole, that's why we call them toxins, because they're bad.
Speaker:Now, it's really important to understand that 20 years ago, The
Speaker:toxicology world only talked about you had mercury toxic, or you had
Speaker:PFA toxics, or you had a mold toxin.
Speaker:They never talked about what was, there were some people back then
Speaker:that were calling about multi chemical sensitivities, MCS.
Speaker:Um, they were like, eh, that doesn't exist.
Speaker:Now, it's here.
Speaker:Nobody has just one toxin anymore.
Speaker:Nobody.
Speaker:Everybody has a dozen or more.
Speaker:And the problem is, to get out one toxin you have to do this, and to
Speaker:get out another toxin you have to do that, and it's a long, laborious,
Speaker:drawn out procedure, and then you have to follow one type of treatment
Speaker:by another type of treatment, and that's what became overwhelming
Speaker:for everybody in the toxicology world is We have this multi toxic
Speaker:world now, with people having multi toxins, and understand, let
Speaker:me give you a real quick example.
Speaker:Would you rather be attacked, um, by a 5 foot, or by a 5 foot
Speaker:guy, or by 150, 000 3 foot guys?
Speaker:Would
Speaker:000.
Speaker:have 150,
Speaker:No doubt.
Speaker:3 foot guys?
Speaker:No!
Speaker:Come on, you can take out, you can take out one guy, you're
Speaker:never gonna take out 150, 000
Speaker:that's what I meant.
Speaker:That's what I meant.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Yeah, I mean, it's nothing, there's just that.
Speaker:And that's what we're dealing with today.
Speaker:We're not dealing with you having one toxin.
Speaker:We're dealing with you having a little bit of all of them.
Speaker:And that's what everybody has now.
Speaker:And that's what we call a toxic burden.
Speaker:We stopped talking about mercury toxin and mold toxin.
Speaker:What we talk about, people, now is what's your toxic burden?
Speaker:Because a little bit of this, a little bit of this, a little
Speaker:bit of this, a little bit of this adds up to a lot of crap.
Speaker:Uh huh.
Speaker:Uh
Speaker:And it all acts synergistically against your body.
Speaker:Got it.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:And, and there was never one way to take them all out until
Speaker:we came up with our protocol.
Speaker:And now we have them discovered and patented and we're branching out.
Speaker:We came up with a protocol that virtually safely, effectively,
Speaker:minimally, evasively, and universally removes all toxins.
Speaker:So, if you're afraid that you're going to get Alzheimer's because
Speaker:you have toxins or Parkinson's, we can get rid of them.
Speaker:If you're afraid your DNA is that you're going to get cancer
Speaker:and you're worried about your toxins, we can get rid of them.
Speaker:I mean, we can do all these things.
Speaker:You got heart disease in your family, and you know that toxins
Speaker:and microplastics, did you know that if you have microplastics in
Speaker:your arteries, which one out of two out of three guys do, your risk
Speaker:for heart disease goes up 450%?
Speaker:I, I was actually gonna bring up microplastics because I did not know
Speaker:that artery and that's a two thirds of men or what is that everyone, uh,
Speaker:has
Speaker:Two thirds of everyone has microplastics in their artery,
Speaker:which is increasing their risk for heart disease by 450%.
Speaker:and heart disease is number one killer currently.
Speaker:Correct.
Speaker:Correct.
Speaker:Correct.
Speaker:Correct.
Speaker:Although the Alzheimer's and the cancers in the world are coming up
Speaker:fast because we're not seeing heart disease yet in the younger people,
Speaker:although it will be coming because of the obesity and everything, but
Speaker:we are seeing Alzheimer's at a 400 percent increase in the group under
Speaker:50, and we're seeing the cancers at a huge increase, especially
Speaker:the gastrointestinal cancers.
Speaker:At a rapid rate that we can't even keep up with, even though cancer
Speaker:therapies are prolonging people's lives, and we're getting better at
Speaker:treating them, and people are older.
Speaker:These cancers that are occurring in these younger people
Speaker:are not the same cancers.
Speaker:These are highly aggressive stage four terminal cancers
Speaker:that are presenting terminal.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:There's no other way.
Speaker:the, and this is the part that I tell everybody, go get your, I
Speaker:mean, this is the first time ever the United States government, and
Speaker:ever, dropped the age requirement for colonoscopies to 45, because
Speaker:we were missing so many people between the age of 45 and 50, and
Speaker:then they dropped mammograms to 40.
Speaker:Because we're missing so many breast cancers because of all
Speaker:the BPA and all the other, uh, estrogen blocking hormones.
Speaker:I mean, this is, people, and if people like, you know, autism,
Speaker:here's another thing that they talk about all the time.
Speaker:Autism used to be 1 kids back in 1960.
Speaker:It's now 1 in 36 kids today.
Speaker:And they're saying that's because we're, that's because
Speaker:we're diagnosing it better.
Speaker:Bullshit.
Speaker:That's because the most susceptible person on the
Speaker:planet is the unborn child.
Speaker:You expose the unborn child.
Speaker:We know that on average the unborn child is exposed to 270
Speaker:chemicals and they have, they have microplastics in their
Speaker:first poop, their meconium.
Speaker:So we know that these toxins get across the barrier.
Speaker:On a child that's in the developmental stage.
Speaker:Does this even surprise you anymore?
Speaker:I don't know if surprise or anger is a better word.
Speaker:I get frustrated when I, when, when, when it's like,
Speaker:people, this is the data.
Speaker:And they're like, well, it's not the toxins.
Speaker:Well, what else could it be?
Speaker:And the answer is, you know, until, but until recently, until we came
Speaker:up with the process of removing toxins, now we can actually start
Speaker:doing studies to see how prevalent the toxins are in causing this,
Speaker:because to do a study, you gotta do two of one, one of two things.
Speaker:Take two healthy groups and make one group toxin and watch them
Speaker:going forward, which is unethical.
Speaker:We're never going to do that.
Speaker:Or.
Speaker:Take two groups that are toxin, make one toxin free, which we've never
Speaker:been able to do before until now, and then watch them go forward.
Speaker:Now we can start doing the studies on moving these things
Speaker:forward to show how dangerous the toxins are to every individual
Speaker:on every different plane.
Speaker:is just, it's a, it's a threat.
Speaker:It's this invisible threat, but it comes in many
Speaker:forms like you described.
Speaker:I mean, it's literally in every piece of our environment.
Speaker:I mean, and so
Speaker:let's remember, Joe, blood pressure used to be an invisible threat.
Speaker:Diabetes used to be an invisible threat.
Speaker:It's invisible because we didn't measure it.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:There
Speaker:It's not an invisible threat.
Speaker:We can measure it now.
Speaker:We can tell you what your microplastics are.
Speaker:We can tell you what your heavy metals, what your,
Speaker:uh, what your PFA is.
Speaker:We can tell you all this, and then we can tell you how to keep
Speaker:yourself clean, or if you need to, how to do plasmapheresis.
Speaker:to get rid of this.
Speaker:Now, the one thing that our group did, and I'm working
Speaker:with 27 of the best national authorities on toxicology and
Speaker:functional medicine and apheresis.
Speaker:I got some of the most brilliant minds from Harvard and John Hopkins
Speaker:and from all, and we're all working together on this project because
Speaker:we see the potential in this.
Speaker:We see the potential for the first time in our lifetime to reverse
Speaker:the toxic threat on people.
Speaker:And what we're noticing with our protocol, because our protocol is
Speaker:more than just plasma exchange, it's plasma exchange with.
Speaker:avoidance and supplements and nutrients and other things that
Speaker:we have to do to optimize people's well being and because of that
Speaker:we can for the first time ever give people a chance to proceed
Speaker:forward without the risk that these chemicals are posing on everyone.
Speaker:That's right.
Speaker:So in the first episode, I know we talked a lot about
Speaker:the avoidance side of toxins that that was a big one.
Speaker:And you could revisit that.
Speaker:I'm curious if you could just like, because there's the avoidance side,
Speaker:but that obviously doesn't do what's already inside of you, you know,
Speaker:and I want to then kind of turn the table and really go into what
Speaker:your plasma exchange protocol does.
Speaker:So let's start with the avoidance side, just high
Speaker:Well, I mean, the right, the right inside real high level
Speaker:is filter your water, filter your air, clean your food, get
Speaker:rid of the chemicals and look at all your consumer products.
Speaker:And we'll have links for you.
Speaker:People can go on to our website and download all these guidebooks.
Speaker:Because what we want to do is show you these simple steps for less
Speaker:than 5, 000 if you did all of them.
Speaker:It's going to clean up your environment incredibly well.
Speaker:And prevent you and your kids and your loved ones from
Speaker:getting sick down the road.
Speaker:yes, that's good.
Speaker:that's, that's the big thing that we try to teach everyone.
Speaker:So the plasma exchange is something that is a little frightening to
Speaker:people because a lot of people haven't heard of it before.
Speaker:Plasma exchange is simply an oil change for humans.
Speaker:Now, if you want to get an old car clean that hasn't been, you
Speaker:know, upkept for a while, you change the oil, put new oil in,
Speaker:run it around the block for a couple weeks, change, take out the
Speaker:dirty oil again, put new oil in, run it around the block a couple
Speaker:weeks, and keep doing this whole thing over and over until the oil
Speaker:starts running clean, correct?
Speaker:Yep.
Speaker:Yep.
Speaker:That's it.
Speaker:Now some of your younger kids may go, What do you mean oil change?
Speaker:But that's how you do an oil change on a car.
Speaker:And that's what you do before you do anything else on an old car.
Speaker:Is you just keep changing the oil until you get it clean.
Speaker:That's exactly what plasma freezes is.
Speaker:You come into the office, you're here for a couple hours, we put an
Speaker:IV in, Just like a plasma donation, we separate the blood into two
Speaker:components, the cells and the plasma, which is the liquid part.
Speaker:We throw the liquid part away, we give you a different liquid
Speaker:part called albumin, we give it back to you, and then within
Speaker:24 hours, you, your body, your cells, makes new, fresh, non
Speaker:toxic, non inflammed, pure plasma.
Speaker:And we basically gave you an oil change.
Speaker:And then we let you go run around for about four weeks, and then we
Speaker:bring you back and we do it again.
Speaker:And then we let you go out for about four weeks, and you
Speaker:come back and we do it again.
Speaker:We do that three to five times, depending on how toxic you are.
Speaker:And that's what plasmapheresis is.
Speaker:It's been around for 50 years.
Speaker:It's used for 167 different disease states.
Speaker:People are like, why didn't I never hear about this before?
Speaker:Because it's not a primary therapy for anything.
Speaker:We use it for a third and fourth line therapy for things
Speaker:like Guillain Barre, which is a paralyzing that comes from a
Speaker:virus, or long COVID is the most common one, or autoimmune problems.
Speaker:That's most commonly what we use plasma exchange for.
Speaker:And also, it's very important to realize, when I'm talking about
Speaker:plasma exchange, I'm talking about plasma exchange with albumin,
Speaker:not with somebody else's plasma.
Speaker:So we're giving you a commercial product, we're not
Speaker:giving you a blood product.
Speaker:And that's what I was gonna ask is can you define what albumin is?
Speaker:I looked it up.
Speaker:I want to hear from, from you here.
Speaker:Albumin is the most common protein that you have in your body and
Speaker:it's a carrier for a bunch of stuff because your body, your blood is
Speaker:water and there's a lot of things that are fat that float around
Speaker:and they can hide inside albumin so the albumin protects them so
Speaker:they can float through the river.
Speaker:But albumin also grabs toxins and it wraps itself around them so that
Speaker:it doesn't interact with the body.
Speaker:So it's also
Speaker:shielding it in a way.
Speaker:It's what we call sequesters.
Speaker:It kind of hides it away and traps it.
Speaker:But it also directs it into fat cells and tells the toxins to
Speaker:get out of the way and hides them in different places too.
Speaker:So albumin is an incredibly important protein to people.
Speaker:Now, the albumin that we use is commercial albumin.
Speaker:So it's somebody that gave plasma, but it's been stomped
Speaker:on and purified and radiated and everything killed.
Speaker:And all we're giving you back is essentially the human protein part.
Speaker:So that's also what we call osmotic.
Speaker:So it means it sucks in water and it keeps the vascular space
Speaker:open until you make enough plasma the next day that you replace.
Speaker:Like I said, Joe, this procedure is safe.
Speaker:minimal side effects.
Speaker:Um, it's been around for 50 years.
Speaker:There's a machine and people can go to our YouTube page or our LinkedIn
Speaker:page and they can see the whole video of what the machine looks like
Speaker:and what the whole process is like.
Speaker:Because you know, you walk in and you hear this big whirling
Speaker:machine going on behind you like, wow, what's going on here?
Speaker:You know, your blood's leaving your body and get clean to come back in.
Speaker:But it's a real simple procedure.
Speaker:Matter of fact, I just had my fourth one done about two days
Speaker:back, a little bruise here.
Speaker:and a little tiny bruise here, um, because I was the first
Speaker:patient two years ago that went through the process.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:I had 17 toxins above the 75 range.
Speaker:After three different plasma exchanges plus our
Speaker:protocol, I was down to six.
Speaker:Six months later, I was down to four.
Speaker:six, a year later, I was down to three.
Speaker:And then this one, two years, I'm at two years now, I'm down to two.
Speaker:But the two that were remaining were PFA's, the forever
Speaker:chemicals, which don't come out short of plasmid chain.
Speaker:So we were training some new nurses because we have six new
Speaker:centers coming, uh, going live.
Speaker:And so they're trained here in Chicago.
Speaker:And so I volunteered to be one of the dummy guinea pigs.
Speaker:We'll get you on that next time.
Speaker:I would love to.
Speaker:Yeah, that's what I was going to say.
Speaker:I'm like, I will be getting this treatment.
Speaker:So I'll report back that as well.
Speaker:And it, I mean, I'm just thinking of what this can do.
Speaker:We mentioned microplastics, you know, removing those from arteries.
Speaker:I mean, just, you know, I can almost visualize that, you know, just the
Speaker:idea of microplastics and like, oh, this can actually remove them.
Speaker:So, but obviously there's way more toxins than just microplastics
Speaker:floating around there.
Speaker:In all honesty, if you're, hey, Dr. Savage, name the top five
Speaker:toxins that you're afraid of.
Speaker:Microplastics are number one.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:they're linked to everything bad.
Speaker:Um, they come in all different sizes.
Speaker:They go down to the DNA size, what we call nanoparticles.
Speaker:And so they're interfering with the DNA.
Speaker:They're at its particle size, so they're causing inflammation.
Speaker:They act as invaders, so they're suppressing the immune system.
Speaker:I mean, they act on all sorts of different levels.
Speaker:On every single level, they're bad for yourselves.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Yeah, and I'm sure there's many toxins within the
Speaker:microplastics themselves,
Speaker:right now we can measure nine different microplastics, um, and
Speaker:there's thousands of different microplastics in the universe.
Speaker:Gotcha.
Speaker:Yeah, I started to learn about this from you guys and working with you.
Speaker:Yeah, and and I had What idea living well aqua true, you know,
Speaker:they I had one of the represent.
Speaker:Yeah Helen from there.
Speaker:She was
Speaker:Which is, which is, which is, which is one of the ones we recommend.
Speaker:If you, if you have an above the counter one, get AquaTru, because it
Speaker:really does remove the vast majority of the toxins and you, I get, I
Speaker:only drink out of stainless steel.
Speaker:You got your stainless steel, hard rubber top.
Speaker:Um, this is clean canteen.
Speaker:Um, And we have a triple filter reverse osmosis here in the office.
Speaker:I have one at home.
Speaker:I have one in Brazil and that's all and I go everywhere with my water.
Speaker:I don't drink water because water is your number one toxin nowadays.
Speaker:Number one.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:food, the food is next and then your environment air in your house
Speaker:is third and people don't realize that you're the air inside your
Speaker:office and the air inside your home is 500 times, 500 percent
Speaker:worse than the air outside.
Speaker:Is that just because cycling through all of the different things
Speaker:that's passing through machines?
Speaker:partly because we use chemicals in the house and they stay on the
Speaker:floor and the walls and the and then they slowly seep off into the air.
Speaker:The other part is every fabric has chemicals like phthalates
Speaker:and and they just slowly.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:stink up the air around you too.
Speaker:Then there's the mold and mold spores and mold seeds
Speaker:and they just circulate.
Speaker:There's everything in your house.
Speaker:You close up your house.
Speaker:You crank up the heat and now you're in a sweat box with chemicals.
Speaker:You're literally sucking them into your body with all the heat and
Speaker:the way that you're increasing the surface, you know, the surface
Speaker:tension and the absorption of your skin by dilating all the veins.
Speaker:And you're just, and you're breathing it in.
Speaker:It's all respiratory.
Speaker:You're swallowing it.
Speaker:It's going through your gut.
Speaker:And I tell people all the time, if you're going to do anything.
Speaker:And you can't afford much, buy a HEPA filter for your bedroom.
Speaker:Because at least that's eight hours of your day in one room
Speaker:that you're going to be in.
Speaker:So that's, if you're going to, only can afford a HEPA for one
Speaker:room, put it in your bedroom.
Speaker:You got two, you can afford two, put the other one in your office.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:And, and whenever you can, open the doors, open the doors, open
Speaker:the windows, and air it out.
Speaker:Because the air outside is safer than the air inside.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:That's a great takeaway right there.
Speaker:I'm going to go buy a couple more filters.
Speaker:How about filters?
Speaker:I actually moved mine from my room to my infant at the time.
Speaker:But yeah, she's a one year old now.
Speaker:I'm like, okay, got to give you the fresh air.
Speaker:So let me give you the real exciting news of what we're doing.
Speaker:We've got some really good developments in the last two months.
Speaker:We've now taken the plasma procedure, because we don't
Speaker:do just plasma change.
Speaker:We teach people avoidance, we have supplements, we
Speaker:have different medications.
Speaker:That makes it 200 percent better than just plasma change alone.
Speaker:And we have the data, it's going to be published here very shortly in
Speaker:a peer reviewed, um, major journal.
Speaker:We're looking at probably next month that we have three articles coming
Speaker:out on heavy metal, microplastics, and environmental toxins.
Speaker:Thanks.
Speaker:But what, what our group did is, okay, now we got the toxins out.
Speaker:We know it causes Alzheimer's.
Speaker:We know it causes brain dysfunction, neurodegenerative disease.
Speaker:Why don't we take some patients, and why don't we
Speaker:take the toxins out, and then why don't we start doing some
Speaker:regenerative therapies afterwards?
Speaker:Here's how it works.
Speaker:All of these neurodegenerative diseases are basically a
Speaker:fight, a battle that's going on inside, let's say, the brain.
Speaker:over toxins versus your immune system, with your brain cells
Speaker:being the damaged collateral.
Speaker:But as long as the battle's going on or the fire is raging,
Speaker:the healing can't take place.
Speaker:The foresters don't go in to plant the trees when
Speaker:the trees are on fire.
Speaker:That's why this, all you get is this degeneration.
Speaker:We've known from a study in 2020 on Alzheimer's, that they gave
Speaker:people TPE with Alzheimer's, and 62 percent of them did not progress
Speaker:in their disease for over a year.
Speaker:It basically stalled the progression of Alzheimer's.
Speaker:We don't even have a drug that does that at this
Speaker:point.
Speaker:but but they do have it with a serial plasma exchange.
Speaker:So we based our protocol on that, plus the supplements and
Speaker:neuropeptides and other things that regenerate the cells afterwards.
Speaker:And we've had six patients so far that we've improved
Speaker:their memory score over 40%.
Speaker:Memory score.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:So literally bring it back.
Speaker:They're co, they're, they're cognition.
Speaker:We do it by what's called a CNS vital sign.
Speaker:It's a validated test where we measure your cognition, your
Speaker:verbal memory, your visual memory, your motor skills,
Speaker:all these different things.
Speaker:And we've seen a 40% improvement in neurocognition flexibility,
Speaker:executive function, and memory,
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:So if we're talking about like just entrepreneurs
Speaker:listening, I mean, this is like a total performance reboot.
Speaker:only do we know that taking the toxins out will slow the progression
Speaker:and onset of the disease, early in the disease we appear to have the
Speaker:ability to remove these toxins, turn off the fire, repair the
Speaker:cells, and we're a year out, and our gentleman who's a year out just
Speaker:did his CNS vital score with an 18 percent further improvement in his
Speaker:medical, uh, in his memory score.
Speaker:Now, this is observational data, but we have this for cognitive decline.
Speaker:We've taken six patients with early cancer markers.
Speaker:We've reverted all of them to negative within three treatments.
Speaker:We've taken people who have HIV and their CD4 counts are falling under
Speaker:400 on medications, and we've been able to increase their CD4 counts
Speaker:to 700 by just doing plasma change.
Speaker:We've taken, so we've taken people with early heart disease or not,
Speaker:sorry, advanced heart disease who are maxed out on their medicine
Speaker:and still progressing because of inflammation and oxidation.
Speaker:We've been able to neutralize that and show regression
Speaker:in the soft plaque.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:So not only can we stop the progression and the threat of
Speaker:toxins early on, it looks and it appears from our observational data
Speaker:that we can actually reverse the damage once we turn the toxins off.
Speaker:Disclaimer, this is all observational data on our patients,
Speaker:and we are, however, the great news, we've just been approved for
Speaker:our research arm, it's a IRB, uh, IRB, non for profit, so we have a
Speaker:company being set up where people can, will, people will come and
Speaker:donate, we have, we need about three million dollars to prove
Speaker:that we can reverse early cognitive decline, which we know we can do.
Speaker:We need 2.
Speaker:7 million to prove we can remove toxins from all the moms before
Speaker:they get pregnant with their kids.
Speaker:We need 2.
Speaker:6 million to prove that we can get toxins out of
Speaker:everybody at every stage.
Speaker:I mean, it's the amount of money needed to look at these disease
Speaker:states for the first time ago.
Speaker:We have a solution here.
Speaker:It's going to cost a couple million dollars.
Speaker:We're very excited because we have a lot of people looking
Speaker:to contribute tax free dollars to this, this research arm.
Speaker:Um, the data is compelling.
Speaker:We have a data research company that published all of our data
Speaker:out of the university of Chicago is the off branch of them.
Speaker:I don't touch the data.
Speaker:It goes to them.
Speaker:They do all of our analysis.
Speaker:They do all our paper writing.
Speaker:They've been studying Alzheimer's and heart disease for 40 years.
Speaker:They have said publicly that they've never seen changes.
Speaker:That we've been showing in the last two years, in the area of
Speaker:heart disease and Alzheimer's.
Speaker:We have a neurologist from Jacksonville who's a very well
Speaker:known, with a very prestigious football team, who said he's
Speaker:never seen these kind of reversals in his patients.
Speaker:We got a cardi, we have three different cardiologists that are
Speaker:saying they've never seen changes like this, and what we're doing
Speaker:with their people with, um, end stage, uh, cardiovascular disease.
Speaker:We have HIV doctors who said they'd never seen anybody like this, where
Speaker:we've increased their CD4 counts and doubled it within about four
Speaker:months and a year later, these people are still at these levels.
Speaker:We have an obstetrics doctor who has publicly said she is
Speaker:absolutely certain we remove the toxins from mom, you're
Speaker:going to have a toxin free baby, which, what does that mean?
Speaker:Maybe it means less autism rate, less ADHD, less,
Speaker:uh, spectrum disease.
Speaker:We all think that this is, we're think we're on to something huge
Speaker:here, because if the toxins are the cause of chronic inflammation,
Speaker:and they are, once you remove them, you turn off chronic inflammation,
Speaker:you turn off chronic inflammatory diseases, which is everything bad.
Speaker:Inflammation's horrible.
Speaker:Yeah, that is the thing.
Speaker:And you can do as much as you can with food, and you should.
Speaker:But when you're
Speaker:But if you don't get the toxins out, you don't turn off the fire.
Speaker:This is what we've known for a long time.
Speaker:I can give you supplements, antioxidants, and anti
Speaker:inflammatories, which negate the inflammation and the oxidation,
Speaker:but it doesn't take care of the fact that the toxins are
Speaker:there, causing the damage.
Speaker:man, yeah.
Speaker:way to do that is to get the toxins out, and then the inflammation
Speaker:and oxidation go away anyway.
Speaker:I was gonna ask you, hey, do you have any, uh, you know,
Speaker:big transformation, you know, things that we could You
Speaker:just gave me about 20 or 30.
Speaker:I don't know how many of that was, and I'm so excited about
Speaker:the nonprofit side of testing, because I think that's going
Speaker:to help get the word out.
Speaker:I mean, if you're, and if anyone listening, watching, I
Speaker:mean, go, go find, you know, go reach out to MD lifespan.
Speaker:com.
Speaker:And you know, if you want to get involved, I'm just saying this
Speaker:Well, I'll, I'll point them to the not for profit.
Speaker:That's a separate organization that's managing the donation
Speaker:and the, the research funding.
Speaker:I don't have anything to do with that.
Speaker:I'm the guy that they pay to do the plasma change, but we're doing
Speaker:it at, we're doing it at a not, not profit at this point because
Speaker:we just want, our physicians, our, like I said, we're opening six new
Speaker:centers in the next two months.
Speaker:We have 20 centers that we're doing in this, this whole year.
Speaker:And our whole group has dedicated themselves to make sure.
Speaker:We're a public benefit corporation, by the way.
Speaker:That's how serious we are about serving the public.
Speaker:We will not make a profit, we will serve the public.
Speaker:This is, so many doctors and so many centers, we
Speaker:don't want to make a profit.
Speaker:We want to show that we can make an impact for the first
Speaker:time in our life on the greatest existential threat to
Speaker:mankind, which is the toxin.
Speaker:So, I have just a group of doctors who are real, I'm
Speaker:excited and thrilled to be able to say we're part of something
Speaker:here that nobody's ever been, that nobody's ever seen before.
Speaker:Oh, yeah.
Speaker:Well, and this is why, I mean, partially self, I just want
Speaker:to see you on more podcasts.
Speaker:I want to see on more media because of what you're talking about.
Speaker:And I'm just going to say right here, because you know, if
Speaker:you, if this is landing with anyone listening, cause I know
Speaker:a lot of you are watching, have your own media and, and.
Speaker:This isn't something that's just a, you know, this is a
Speaker:medical topic where this is like, why does he have them on this
Speaker:entrepreneurial business show
Speaker:or humans?
Speaker:yeah.
Speaker:Three of the top mold doctors in the country now recommend
Speaker:MD Lifespan for their patients who have mold toxicity.
Speaker:I mean, so it's like, and these are the people that for years
Speaker:were told, uh, it's not real, you don't have it, you're just
Speaker:tired, you're just malingering.
Speaker:And I used to be one of those docs 30 years ago.
Speaker:They used to tell these people, yeah, this is bullshit.
Speaker:Uh, and now I look at all these patients, I've seen them for
Speaker:30 years and I realized how wrong we were to classify them.
Speaker:And whether it's mold toxicity or people with chronic Lyme's or
Speaker:people with chronic infections, the problem with those, most of the
Speaker:people like with the HIV patients is their immune system has been so
Speaker:crippled by the toxins that they can't mount the proper defense.
Speaker:And there's plenty of research out there to show this is true.
Speaker:There was, there was a study where they gave people arsenic
Speaker:and then, uh, 90 days later, 90 percent were better.
Speaker:They gave them lime, 90 days later, 90 percent were better.
Speaker:They gave them lime and then arsenic.
Speaker:90 days, 90 percent were better.
Speaker:But then they gave them arsenic and then lime and 90 days
Speaker:later, 90 percent of them are sick with chronic fatigue.
Speaker:Because once the arsenic knocks out the immune system and then
Speaker:you give them an infection, that's the setup for chronic fatigue.
Speaker:And you won't get people out of chronic fatigue, infectious chronic
Speaker:fatigue, by just treating the lime.
Speaker:You gotta treat the toxin first, because that's what came first.
Speaker:Uh, okay.
Speaker:And I'm sure that's the storyline for all these toxins, you know, is
Speaker:For all these toxins, the toxins come first, and then people
Speaker:get an immune suppressant.
Speaker:The toxins come first, and then they get cancer.
Speaker:The toxin comes first, then they get neurodegenerative.
Speaker:Here's the magic sentence.
Speaker:Toxins take you out where your DNA is the weakest.
Speaker:So if your family history is cancer, that's what the toxins
Speaker:are going to do for you.
Speaker:If your family history is Alzheimer, that's what the
Speaker:toxins are going to do for you.
Speaker:If your family history is heart disease, that's what
Speaker:the toxins They're going to expedite, because that's what
Speaker:chronic inflammation does.
Speaker:the, the expression of that disease in
Speaker:Yeah, because there's uh, you know in my family and also my
Speaker:wife's family there are a couple markers that and After working
Speaker:or as you know, as we've been working together and every I keep
Speaker:listening and thinking and learning I'm like we both need this, you
Speaker:know the plasma exchange and and I mean, there's just so many
Speaker:other folks I just have no clue.
Speaker:This is even possible.
Speaker:Honestly, Joe, you may or may not need plasmic change.
Speaker:It depends on what your toxic level and what your DNA is, but
Speaker:you don't know unless you measure.
Speaker:There you go.
Speaker:That, that's the point.
Speaker:I mean, it's just like you might need diabetic
Speaker:medicine or diabetic therapy.
Speaker:You might or might not need medicine for your blood
Speaker:pressure or different.
Speaker:You don't know until you measure it.
Speaker:The message I want to make sure all the entrepreneurs here for
Speaker:everybody who cares about their family, loved one, and every about
Speaker:them is go get your toxins tested.
Speaker:I don't care where you can come to our website.
Speaker:We have a very comprehensive test.
Speaker:Plus it involves 30, 30 minutes with one of our doctors.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Staff members, not nurses.
Speaker:We get our doctors to talk to you for 30 minutes about
Speaker:what that means for you.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:Got
Speaker:But you don't know until you measure.
Speaker:So everybody go measure yourselves.
Speaker:I'm getting mine done.
Speaker:I'll report back.
Speaker:And, um, and I know there's a, there's a little special deal that
Speaker:your team is working on as well.
Speaker:Yeah, always for your team.
Speaker:Always for your team.
Speaker:There's going to be a code that they'll be 100 percent off or 100
Speaker:off that, whatever that code is.
Speaker:My, my, my team works great with you.
Speaker:Yep.
Speaker:Thank you.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And uh, it's either shown on the screen, probably there,
Speaker:and it'll be linked up.
Speaker:It'll be easy to find.
Speaker:So jump on that.
Speaker:There might even be a, a limit, who knows?
Speaker:But either way, um, Savage and the, and the crew are hooking you up.
Speaker:I'm curious, what's the bigger vision of what you
Speaker:can tell us with MD lifespan?
Speaker:Because obviously it pluck the, out of retirement, it's
Speaker:only becoming more of a thing.
Speaker:It's in the media.
Speaker:What's driving you, let's say, for the next decade, if you feel like
Speaker:that's, be hyped up in that one.
Speaker:I'll be honest with you, this is not my first startup.
Speaker:This is my third.
Speaker:I expect to be here about another two years before we're taken over
Speaker:by somebody bigger because I'm not going to be able to carry
Speaker:this as an individual or my team as an to where it needs to go.
Speaker:Where does it need to go?
Speaker:It needs to end up in traditional medicine so that every obstetrics
Speaker:doctor has an aphrodisiac center for the women who need it.
Speaker:Every cardiologist has an AFERI center for their
Speaker:heart patients who need it.
Speaker:Every neurologist has an AFERI center for all of their cognitive
Speaker:issue patients who need it.
Speaker:Not everybody needs plasma exchange, but if you have high toxin levels
Speaker:and a significant DNA, or you have high toxin levels and you're
Speaker:already showing inflammation, oxidation, or, worse yet, you
Speaker:have high toxin levels and you're already showing the symptoms of a
Speaker:disease, You probably need plasma change because we don't have
Speaker:that much time to mess around.
Speaker:We have to reverse that before it goes further.
Speaker:So our goal and all the doctors that we're working with, and
Speaker:we're into 170 some odd doctors at this point, with 26 of them
Speaker:as advisors, is we all are going to be Take all this research, all
Speaker:of our effort to change people's lives so that we can show that
Speaker:we can put this into a process that becomes more affordable.
Speaker:We can do it quicker.
Speaker:We can do it better.
Speaker:We can do it faster.
Speaker:We can do it cheaper so that the people that need this.
Speaker:Medicare is going to pay for it because the government
Speaker:put us into this problem.
Speaker:The government need we need to as a population because we're all
Speaker:responsible for not electing the right people To keep us out of
Speaker:this problem So we need to take care of the people who we put into
Speaker:danger And that means we think we probably can get this whole
Speaker:process down considerable amount But we're going to need, but
Speaker:we're going to, but we're going to need numbers and we're going
Speaker:to need population to change so.
Speaker:Why do I know this can happen?
Speaker:Because in 2000 I was behind the group of doctors that was working
Speaker:on testosterone to get it out of the anti steroid act into the hand
Speaker:of guys who had low testosterone, which we did successfully.
Speaker:But we did it because the public was behind us.
Speaker:That's what changed everything.
Speaker:Awareness is the whole key here.
Speaker:Talking to your population, your entrepreneurs, getting
Speaker:them so they're talking to their employees, their, their cohorts,
Speaker:so we can all start working together with acknowledging
Speaker:that we have a problem.
Speaker:And as Stephen Hawkins said, we passed that milestone
Speaker:10 years ago, in 2015.
Speaker:And so we're already behind.
Speaker:Everybody's toxic.
Speaker:And if you're not taking care of this problem today, I promise you,
Speaker:it will take care of you tomorrow.
Speaker:And not in the way you want.
Speaker:it's true.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And this is
Speaker:But if you look at, if you look at the statistics just
Speaker:in the cancer from 2 to 17 to 30, it's escalating up.
Speaker:Next year it's going to be higher.
Speaker:We don't have a lot of time moving forward here before this
Speaker:becomes overwhelming in America.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:Well, so here's the thing.
Speaker:I'm going to, I'm going to ask you one more question,
Speaker:but I want to direct people.
Speaker:Definitely go to MD lifespan.
Speaker:com because there are, you know, and of course I have the links
Speaker:below and all that, but yeah, Your website has a ton of information.
Speaker:You know, you can see that.
Speaker:There's a cool video actually on the whole oil change concept as well.
Speaker:And so many other things that you guys do.
Speaker:So go check that out.
Speaker:Uh, And I want to ask you, like, is there a question that I have not
Speaker:asked you during this, this chat here, or the previous one that you
Speaker:feel like is the most crucial for people to really understand about
Speaker:this whole toxin crisis, something that we might've missed here.
Speaker:No, I think you've done real good.
Speaker:I think a couple of the myths I always talk about is number one.
Speaker:Nobody has just one.
Speaker:Everybody has a lot.
Speaker:So it's not like I have mold toxins.
Speaker:Sure you do.
Speaker:Plus you have other things.
Speaker:So we need to get out of this.
Speaker:I have this toxin and that toxin for the people to know and understand.
Speaker:We're all multi, we're all multi chemicals at this point.
Speaker:Number two, if you don't know your numbers, you don't know the danger.
Speaker:And that's the step that everybody has to do.
Speaker:Number three, even if you don't know your numbers, go protect yourself.
Speaker:Spend the time, it's not a lot of hard reading, we give you directed,
Speaker:like the Aquatru, the rain salt, we will tell you these are the
Speaker:ones we know from Consumer Reports or from our clinical trials that
Speaker:work in providing protection for you and your loved ones.
Speaker:Do that now, no matter where you are.
Speaker:Got it.
Speaker:And, and finally, the last one is if you got questions,
Speaker:go to the website, schedule a call, talk to one of our docs.
Speaker:We're there for you.
Speaker:There's no charge for the call.
Speaker:We just want to be able to provide to the consumer, to the
Speaker:other, to our friends, to other entrepreneurs, the answers that
Speaker:they really need to understand.
Speaker:We're a very data based oriented company.
Speaker:Um, we believe in the numbers, but we believe in
Speaker:the numbers to help people.
Speaker:Dr. Paul Savage.
Speaker:I'm so happy that you've come out of retirement and you've
Speaker:done this whole startup.
Speaker:I know it's not easy and you know, I've, I've worked with
Speaker:a crew and I know you guys are busted, busted ass all the time.
Speaker:I mean, everybody is.
Speaker:the thing is when I had this, when the universe gave me this idea.
Speaker:It's not like I had a choice, Joe.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:I mean, I sat there and realized that, Oh my God, I know how
Speaker:to get rid of the toxins.
Speaker:I know how to get rid of it.
Speaker:And that was something we've been struggling with for 30 years.
Speaker:And suddenly I knew the answer.
Speaker:And it's like, yeah, I'm just going to pretend I didn't have
Speaker:that thought and go on living.
Speaker:It's like, it wasn't going to happen that way.
Speaker:It seriously wasn't.
Speaker:I went to my husband and said, Hey, we got to do this.
Speaker:He's like, yep.
Speaker:Then I called my marketing woman and I said, Hey, she goes, I'm on board.
Speaker:And I called my tech person.
Speaker:I'm on board, called my finance people.
Speaker:They're like.
Speaker:Can you do this?
Speaker:I said, I'm absolutely, I mean, I've been sure on
Speaker:the other stuff I've done.
Speaker:I've never been so sure as I am on this project, on the, on the
Speaker:timeliness, the effectiveness.
Speaker:We have done nothing but exceed our expectations every step of the way.
Speaker:We are on the right track.
Speaker:We have a solution that we can provide to people, we just need
Speaker:to get further down the road with the research, uh, with the
Speaker:numbers, we need the support of the government, we need the support
Speaker:of entrepreneurs everywhere, but the best thing I want to do
Speaker:is just increase the awareness.
Speaker:That's what we need.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:You'll get it.
Speaker:You are getting it.
Speaker:And I think, uh, you're riding the wave at the right time
Speaker:where people are starting to be open to the concept as well.
Speaker:And, um, inserting yourself in there as a complete game changer.
Speaker:I mean, that's how it's been ever since I've learned
Speaker:about it more and more.
Speaker:So there you go.
Speaker:I'll urge everyone again, follow, follow the path.
Speaker:We've already shattered out a bunch of times and, uh, it's up to you.
Speaker:It's your choice.
Speaker:All right.
Speaker:So, all right, Dr. Paul, I appreciate you so much.
Speaker:I'm happy we did this again and I'm likely do it again
Speaker:because all these updates, man,
Speaker:Do your test, do your test, do your test, it'll
Speaker:I will, I'm
Speaker:reporting back.
Speaker:it'll be revealing.
Speaker:All right.
Speaker:Thank you.
