“Yeah, okay. Well, there's no one single factor, I think, that responsible for it, but it is true. The Japanese demographics show consistently some of the oldest, longest living people. You know, they tend first and foremost before we talk about what they eat. Let me tell you what they don't do. They don't overeat. And I'm giving a purposeful pause there because over eating, caloric loading is very damaging to our metabolism. It actually counters our ability for to live long. It actually speeds up our cellular aging. It sets up inflammation. So by cutting down on your caloric intake every day, that's one of the things that the Japanese culture, the culinary and gastronomic approach to food in Japan tends to favor modesty, under eating rather than overeating.”

“What I prefer and where I think the science takes us, where the next frontier for lifetime health is tearing a page from the playbook of some of the healthiest cuisines in the world. And I would say Mediterranean is the hotbed, the crucible of a lot of healthy diets, not just the blue zones, I think, but there are blue zones in the Mediterranean. Also Asia, there's a blue zone in Asia as well. But, you know, look, there's also blue zone in Latin America. If you take a look at the common denominator of what's going on in the Mediterranean and Asia is a very healthy plant forward fresh, seasonal, healthy cooking oils, healthy preparation style, absolutely delicious way of eating. I mean, come on. If I were to take you to a Mediterranean restaurant or to an Asian restaurant, I would find it hard to believe that you would.”

“Popular trending diets are short lived, short term solutions. I know kind of force your body to do something. All right, but you can't keep it up. And so a diet that you can't keep up isn't, to me, a very practical diet because you're going to bursts of activity that you just can't do your whole life. I find that It's much more healthy in the long run if you can find a sustainable way of eating that works for you personally, that you can maintain and that you're going to enjoy your life as well. Most people who are on really strict diets, they're not enjoying their diet, you know, like people who only eat, only eat carnivore diet or only eat raw food. Listen, you can't con me. You can't be enjoying eating raw.”

“So let me just give you my perspective on diets. Lots of different diets out there. They're all designed with kind of a specific perspective and a particular goal in mind. Oftentimes, diet, whether you're talking about South Beach or Keto or carnivore or vegan, you know, they're all designed to achieve a certain kind of goal. Most of them are very, very difficult to maintain for a long period of time. People are vegans and vegetarians and that's something that because of the diversity of the food that you eat, you can actually maintain that. But if you're only doing pure keto, that's very difficult to do.”

“At the time this was coming out, you had to grow your own Acromacia, DIY Acromacia. All right. So how do you grow it? Well, it turns out that there are certain foods you can eat that grow acromancia. What are those foods? Pomegranate. Pomegranate juice, pomegranate seeds will grow acromancia. Cranberries, cranberry juice, dried cranberries will grow acromancia. Conquered grape juice or conquered grapes will grow acromancia. Chili peppers will actually grow acromancia. Chinese black vinegar. You ever go to dim sum and have soup dumplings?”

“They would respond to immunotherapy. So, what the researcher did, she took out the acromancia and brought it to her lab of the responders from humans and gave it to mice who were not responding to immunotherapy. Boom, she'd resurrect the immune response to kill the cancer. So this is one of the first bacteria and there may be many, many that we haven't yet discovered. So like my whole career has all been about discovery. There may be more bacteria, but we discovered at least one the presence of which seems to be absolutely vital if you are a patient receiving immunotherapy, the type of immunotherapy called checkpoint inhibitors, if you want to tip the odds in your own favor of being a responder. Now, how do you get ecromancia? Well, at the time there was no acromancia probiotics. Now you can actually find acromancia probiotics.”

“The responders had one bacteria called acromancia mucinophila, so most bacteria have a genus and species, first name, last name, first name is acromancia, last name is mucinophila. Okay, it likes to grow in mucusinophylla. Where is there a lot of mucus? In the colon. Where's the colon? In this model, the blue area. So acromancia grows right here in the secum, which is the pouch in the colon right at the beginning before you take the up elevator to the top of the colon. That's where it grows. If the people had that acromancia.”

“Versus people who didn't respond didn't do well, died. And that's the frustration with the types of treatments my mom had. You know, some people do well, some people don't do well. We pull our hair out trying to figure out like what's going on? How do we make people do better? Well, it turns out that when you compare everything, gender, age, comorbidities, all the other genetic factors, the research that was presented showed that there was no differences between the groups of responders, people who did well versus people who didn't do well for immunotherapy, except for one thing. That one thing was one bacteria.”

“Yeah. Okay. So in 20... seventeen I help to convene a cancer research conference in Paris. And we call it a rethinking cancer. And we brought the world's best minds out there. And one of the researchers named Dr. Laurence Ziffogel, she's in Paris, works in Paris at the Institute Gustav Roussie. She is an immuno oncologist, so she studies immunotherapy for cancer. And at the time, we asked her to present some groundbreaking results that were embargoed at the time. So our research, our conference was the first time it was ever presented. And she said in 100 people who were receiving immunotherapy for different types of cancer, that if you looked at the difference between people who responded, lived, did well.”

“and she is thriving, alive, with his immunotherapy. So between my mother, Rebecca Devine, I'm just telling you, like, I've had well over a dozen people who, there's no way they'd be here today if it wasn't for the scientific advances that all shore up the body's health defense systems, specifically the immune system, but that's the drugs alone aren't enough. You really can take advantage at home of your own diet and lifestyle to be able to tip those odds in your favor.”

“A hundred people with glioblastoma. That is a game over brain cancer. Nobody lives more than a couple of years with this. With this treatment, we've been able to actually show that some patients with their own immune system woken up can actually keep them alive and cancer free, brain cancer. Like that is no win situation impossible to possible. And actually somebody who I've just recruited as an ambassador to my nonprofit organization, the Androigenesis Foundation, I strongly encourage people who want to have a modicum of hope, who wants to see what I'm talking about in real life on social media. There's a woman named Rebecca Devine. She's okay with me giving her name. Her handle is that brainy blonde. It's a triple entendre. She's blonde. She's very smart. But she had a glial blastoma seven years ago.”

“And now you have a protein printer that prints out those smoking guns as a protein, as a protein full of your own individual cancer of that particular person. Now you take that protein and you inject it under the skin, and you're challenging your own immune system, you're vaccinating yourself with your own cancer, and you're causing your own immune system to say, aha, this is a bad guy. We're going to develop antibodies to go find our immune system. We're going to get ratcheted up to go find that cancer. Well, this is happening right now in clinical trials. I have a colleague named Sasukia Biscuit that is actually developing peptide vaccine treatments against cancer. And if you want to see some amazing results, there was a paper we published in Nature Communications about a year ago that showed in more than a hundred.”

Imagine every mutation is a pearl and you connect them together with the string that connects a pearl necklace. Now you get what I'm saying? Like now we've taken the tumor, find out the doers, the smoking guns. Now we've strung them together. Okay, this is the most wanted sign that you would actually place out for the criminal.

“Those are the smoking guns of the cancer. Now what have I a little normal blood, normal cells, and sequence that too? Now people are hearing me talk who are oncologists or scientists would say, I don't know what you're talking about. That's double the waste of effort because now you're going to sequence the human genome twice in a single patient. What are you going to do with all that information? This is where technology fits in. Artificial intelligence, machine learning, let's now have a computer compare normal cells with tumor cells back and forth and back and forth and back and forth, subtract out all the mutations that are found in normal cells leaving only the smoking gun mutations in the cancer. A couple hundred are going to be left. Those are the smoking guns. Those are the doers that led to this cancer. Now imagine, and I'm going to give you an analogy here, do you remember that Tom Cruise movie minority?”

“Well, what's the pathway? What's the recipe we should follow for treatment? Too often, those recipes don't work very well or for very long. What have I told you that where we are headed with cancer therapy is a new frontier where you take the tumor of the biopsy, sure, look it under the microscope, call it out, define what it is, and then you send it to a lab where you do complete full-on genetics. You sequence the entire cancer genome, all right? Right now we do sequence. We take a dozen, two dozen, three dozen. I'm talking about doing 20,000, 30,000 genes, right? Right now, most people say it's not worth it. We don't know what we do with all that information. What have I told you? If you took a tumor and sequenced all the genes, you find every mutation, every typographical error that we talked about earlier that's in that cancer.”

“If we could only get this to work as well for everyone, this is where we are in the history of medicine. We can see an end. We know how we can get to an end. We've actually seen successes. We just can't get it to work for everyone yet, and there are different ways to actually wake up your immune system. Another way that I'm working on now that a colleague of mine in Germany is working on is also absolutely jaw-droppingly amazing. Imagine this. Somebody has cancer and they're going to get a biopsy no matter what. They're going to take some tissue out to look at it under the microscope. What kind of cancer is it? The brain is a breast is a colon, is it pancreas? Where is it coming from? You're going to get a diagnosis right now up until recently. That's all we did with the tissue, the biopsy. You just got a result and it's kind of like a death sentence depending on what type of cancer. And you're supposed to then go to the guidelines and open up the treatment book to say.”

Three treatments of immunotherapy three weeks apart. So time zero is the first treatment through weeks later, the next treatment, three weeks after that, the next treatment. All right. So we're talking about a total of nine weeks of three treatments. All right, of these three treatments. We scanned her stage four, went to stage zero. and she never had chemotherapy. Now chemotherapy can be helpful too with immunotherapy, but this was where I saw firsthand close up in my own family the ability to harness your body's own health defenses in a way that I couldn't do for my uncle.”

“times of change, signs had advanced, progress has advanced, at that time when my mother was diagnosed with stage four cancer, immunotherapy, the latest and greatest, I think, advancement in cancer treatment had just broken through and become approved. Immunotherapy is not chemotherapy. It doesn't actually poison the cancer. Immunotherapy is a medicine that you give a cancer patient that wakes up your own immune system, whether you're a young person, an old person, it can wake up your immune system, all right. And my mother had immunotherapy. She was one of the early patients that got immunotherapy. And her own 80-year-old immune system woke up like an army of super soldiers and went after that cancer. Now we completely adjusted her diet so that her body between treatments”

“Have to worry about starving your healthy tissues. You're just cutting off the bad blood vessels of the tissue. I call it like a landscaper on a golf course that breaks out the lawnmower to mow that golf course so it's got a perfect level of the lawn. You're not going to actually carve out a bald spot in a country club. You're going to get just the right amount. Similarly, and we're not talking about this graph, there's another graph that can actually show foods that you can eat that can grow blood vessels, healthy blood vessels where you want them. And it turns out things like fruit peel can actually do that. And barley can grow new blood vessels. And dark chocolate can actually help to support blood vessels as well. And some of these things can also work on both sides of the equation that can prune away the bad extra blood vessels and they can grow them whenever you need them. So your body is sort of like the gardener extraordinaire.”

“As a health defense system, our angenesis system is completely designed to yoke in the right number of blood vessels to give just the right amount of blood flow. Not too much, not too little. I call it the Goldilocks zone. You know, Goldilocks a fairy tale, the bears were home invaders. They broke into the house and they were looking for chairs and porridge and beds not too hot, not too cold, but just right. All of our health defenses, including the Androgenesis health defense, is hardwired to keep the body just right so. What that means is that eating foods like artichokes or strawberries or soy can actually help your body prevent extra blood vessels from growing towards cancer, for example, and other disease tissues, but it will not override the body's natural ability to get the right amount of blood vessels to the right tissue.”

“So, this is the great question. Let me kind of reframe the question as you're asking it. If experiments are able to show that certain foods can prevent blood vessels from growing, will that actually cause a problem with your body's health defenses to keep blood vessels from growing in healthy tissues? Answer is no. And here's why.”

“that I absolutely had to actually look further into. A drug takes a decade and a billion or more dollars to be able to develop from scratch to reaching a patient, and then not everyone who needs a treatment can actually get the drug, but a food has immediacy. If you discover something amazing about a food, whether it's matcha, whether it's purple potatoes, whether it's a strawberry, that immediacy could be used beneficially without toxicity. All right, and affordably. And so I just saw this as, this experiment is what brought me into the realm of foodist medicine.”

“To test, let's remove half of them, and let's swap them out with powders that came from food. All right, just to see what would happen. And when we actually tested foods in the same system used to develop drugs, food as medicine tested in the same system that medicines are developed, we found what you see on this bar chart in red, we actually found that dietary factors, stuff that's found in food, could actually cut down the blood supply that would be growing to feed a cancer. In other words, there's anti-angiogenic foods. You can see the green tea, you can see the onions and garlics and red grapes and strawberries. It was really an eye-opener to me. And I said, My God, foods have potency just like drugs. I was a skeptic, all right? And it just made me realize this is something that I had to pursue. This was an area of research.”

Hey, this could be a good candidate drug. And we were also testing other drugs that were available, not used for cancer to see if they would work. Sure, we discovered some of those too. But I did something a little bit subversive, and as you know, if you want to be disruptive, you got to sometimes disrupt yourself in order to be able to do this. So this is our experiment that we were doing at the Andro Genesis Foundation. We decided to disrupt ourselves. So we said we have a whole system of drugs.”

And at the time, there were no such treatments, so it was all discovery. Like this was, you know, like the golden age of discovery when it came to angenesis. We were testing, oh my gosh, this thing could really stop blood vessels. Could we develop this into a cancer treatment? Ultimately, yes. The answer was yes. But we were looking for them. And so we developed a system where we could add a substance into a laboratory test system to see if blood vessels would grow or shrink. And so here on this...”

So that's one of the areas of, so Andrew Genesis actually is intended to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the tissues that need it to maintain your health. But because it's so critical, it's also very, very carefully controlled so you don't have blood vessels growing where they should not be growing, like in your joints, in your eyes, or of course to cancers. You don't definitely don't want to be feeding cancers by delivering oxygen or nutrients to them.”

“Yeah, so androgenesis, which is the field I study, break it down to what its elemental parts of angio blood blood vessel, genesis, how the body grows and maintains them. So angiogenesis is how our body grows and maintains our circulation. A lot of people don't know this, but our circulation is one of our body's health defense systems, and it's so extensive that in a typical adult there are 60,000 miles worth of blood vessels packed inside our body. These are the highways and byways that deliver blood to every organ and tissue. But that means that they also deliver the air we breathe, the oxygen we're breathing in, and the nutrients that we're eating. So we eat good things that are going into our bloodstream and our blood vessels, our angrogenesis systems delivering to every cell in the body. Now, you eat something bad, similarly, or you breathe something in bad. Similarly, those blood vessels are delivering something negative. Now inside.”

“And turns out that we've known for a long time that unhealthy diets are linked to a higher risk of colorectal cancer, specifically processed meats. So the World Health Organization considers processed meats. Salami bologna, ultra-processed, you know, kind of deliats, delicate meats you find in delicates in. All right, those would be considered carcinogens and they are highly linked to an increased risk of bowel cancers. Now, why would that be? Well, it turns out that think about it, if you're eating a ton of meat, all right, you're actually exposing the gut to a lot of those processed meat carcinogens that when it sits around your colon, not once in a while, go to the ball game, have a hot dog, enjoy yourself. But if you eat it day in and day out, you're giving a lot of exposure to your gut.”

“Well, okay, so let's do a quick medical school course, crash course for podcasters. The gut. We talk about gut health. Most people think of the gut as sort of lower down in your belly or maybe even just your stomach. But the gut actually starts in your mouth and it runs down down down about 40 feet worth of stuff, organs. Your esophagus, your stomach, your small intestine, your large intestines. By the way, these squigglies are your small intestines, all right? This blue is your large intestines. This is like a, it's shaped like a horseshoe, it's big, thick tube that's kind of framing your small intestines. And then it goes down the poop chute directle in the anus. That's the end of your gut. All right. So the colon is really the large framing, thick part of the gut. It's near the very end. All right. So all this squiggly small intestines winds up here at the beginning of the colon. The colon goes up. It's called the ascending colon.”

“What I am saying is that drinking green tea in its most healthful form raises your body's health defense systems. And by having better health defense systems, better immunity, better control of your blood vessels, better lived to one hundred and four years old, vital, intact, independent. He told me that he attributed his longevity and his vitality to the fact that he lived at the base of a mountain that grew tea, that every morning he got up and he walked up, he walked up stone steps, a stone path to a tea garden he had freshly picked tea. It's all organically grown and everything. And he drank tea all day long. He probably had 10 cups of green tea a day. And this has been his whole life. He sat with his close friends who are also very vibrant and elderly. Social connection. Watch the sun rise. It's very calming.”

“have also been found in the lab to kill breast cancer stem cells. What's a breast cancer stem cell? What's a stem cell cancer stem cell? Well, look, stem cells are these renewable cells. All right. And cancers contain stem cells that help the cancers come back, right? If you've got cancer, you get it treated. One thing you don't want it to do is to come back. And by the way, other foods can also kill cancer stem cells. purple potatoes that you might have seen in the market. They're kind of purply looking on the outside, slice it open, dark, purple on the inside. All right. Turns out that those purple potatoes have something called anthocyanins. Purple potatoes have been studied in a lab, okay, at Penn State University and been shown to kill colon cancer stem cells, which contribute to the colon cancer coming back.”

“They take out the stem of the green tea leaf, and they ground up the actual leaf into a powder. Now, what's in that green tea leaf? You've got not just some of the polyphenols that might steep out in the cup, whether you're using a tea bag or loose leaf tea, you're getting all the polyphenols suspended in that. So now you get 100% polyphenol, okay, in matcha. So go ahead, go ahead and do it. That one's good. All right. Okay, for matcha. And because you're getting the tea leaf ground to it, you're also getting your dietary fiber. The dietary fiber is good for your gut health, your microbiome, good for your metabolism, good for lowering inflammation. And the polyphenols found in green tea have also been matcha tea.”

“Enriched polyphenol enriched tea. A lot of people don't realize that there's no tea bag in it, so don't worry. So a lot of people think about matcha as just another green tea, but it's not another green tea. It is made with green tea leaves, the same kind of green tea leaves, but as you would find in any green tea. However... It's what's the composition of matcha. Matcha is green tea that is before it's ready for harvest is grown under a shade that changes its chemical structure, natural chemical structure a little bit. So it's got a lot of potency to it. And what happens with matchas, they take the tea leaf.”

“specifically Earl Grey, that she was the most potent when it actually supported your blood vessels, your body's defenses for angiogenesis to keep your circulation healthy. Wow, what a surprise that is. And this spoke to me about the fact that we can't make assumptions. We need to look at facts. We need to look at data. And so I'm a big fan of Earl Gray now. Now what might make Earl Gray give Earl Gray a superpower? Well, this is where knowing a little bit about what you're eating is actually useful because Earl Gray is a fermented, it's a black tea. It's got bergamet in it. And bergamut is a kind of a citrus. So maybe it's combining those ingredients that actually provides the superpower. But I do see matcha on this tray. I want to tell you about matcha because it is a matcha is truly a super”

“And add your own piece of ginger. These are ways to actually kind of avoid the potential exposures to toxins that come from ultra-processed food. So all this conversation about avoid ultra ultra processed foods and watch out for all those harmful things, it's actually quite easy to dodge them if you just have in your mindset that you're just going to make it yourself and it's absolutely easy. Now, I will tell you something interesting about English breakfast tea. We did research at the Androgenesis Foundation, the nonprofit I looked at, to look at different types of teas, different types of green tea, Japanese tea, Chinese jasmine tea, English tea. And we were always assuming, again, this is the power of foodist medicine research, we were always assuming that the green tea is going to be the best. I'd always heard that Japanese green tea is going to be like the ultra best. And what we found was that”

“As you were doing it, I was like, all right. But look, there's another one there that's got lemon ginger tea. This is like an herbal tea. That's fine. Listen, I would also tell you with flavored teas, just be cautious, like always check anything that's been machined to be a little bit more than nature. Tea bags are supposed to be paper, right? Well, in order to prevent the paper from ripping, the manufacturers of the tea bag spray it with a small amount of plastic to have it hang together better. And that's the plastic that comes off. But what about the lemon and ginger in this lemon ginger tea that sounds so appealing and calming, right? And something that most people would find nice is an herbal tea. Well, listen, you're relying on a factory to actually put that lemon flavor, ginger flavor. Is it real lemon or is it real ginger? Always look at the ingredient label to know what's in there. Or just by your own tea and squeeze your own lemon.”

“Though let me tell you, I see a tea bag in there And there's different ways of brewing your tea. It turns out research from the University of Montreal have now shown that tea bags can shed microplastics. So you can have a billion particles of microplastic shed from a single teab All right, so I just changed your mind, right? So look, this is the power of awareness and understanding. I probably should have stopped you like, why didn't you save my life?”

“Yeah, so I always tell people that the easiest way to lower your exposure to microplastics is to throw out your plastic cups, your plastic plates, and your plastic silverware. and get ceramic or glass. That's the best way to actually avoid those. And also when you're buying food, try to avoid food that comes clearly packaged in plastic. All right. Now I do want to point out one thing because right here on this table, we are looking at a tray full of beverages and I can already identify the matcha. And this looks like a cup of coffee. And we've got English breakfast tea. I've done a lot of research on tea. All right, but I'm noticing something that green tea, which is universally healthy. The polyphenols in green tea lower the risk of inflammation. They actually improve your metabolism, lower your risk of cancer, their heart healthy. Before you take that...”

“Fourfold. Yep. Okay. Now that's not kidding, right? So now we're beginning to take notice of this, but we're also finding microplastics in breast milk. We're finding microplastics in testicles. We're finding microplastics in human semen. How's it get there? And urologists who are doing surgery on the penis are finding that in the human flesh, when they look into the microscope, we never used to look for this. Now we're looking for it, that there's even microplastics in the flesh of the penis. So if anybody listen isn't taking notice about microplastics now, it's time to start thinking about this. One of the questions is, and I'm not saying that the rise in rate of cancers that we're seeing is due to microplastics. What I am saying is that we're beginning to wake up to the fact.”
