EPISODE 72: Good News about the Virus with Dr. Ben Edwards

SHOW NOTES

(0:00) Intro

(0:44) Welcome back to the club!

• We have Dr. Ben Edwards on the podcast today!

(3:30) Dr. Edwards backstory:

• Transition from pharmaceuticals to holistic and root cause approach.

• Overcoming cognitive dissonance— Why wasn’t medical school teaching these things?

• Alternative practices allowed patients to improve and become symptom free.

• Diet and lifestyle is at the root, NOT genetics. (genetics do play a role, but not as much as diet and lifestyle).

“But it was time for me to move on to what the Lord designed me to be, a physician who believes that our body is designed perfectly and knows how to heal itself if given the opportunity.

Now I see that all we have to do is to find out what our bodies are missing that the Lord intended them to have, and what harmful things we are being exposed to that shouldn’t be there. Replace what’s missing and remove what is harmful. That’s it. Then sit back and watch the “miracle cure” that is waiting inside of you manifest.”

(13:00) Celiac disease story:

• You are not a victim of your genes.

• Genes load the gun, diet and lifestyle pull the trigger.

(15:58) Herd immunity / herd immunity threshold:

• Explanation of how the virus burns itself out.

• 70-day cycle

• 10-15% of the community needs to get exposed and infected.

• 81% of general response already have immune response - fighting off the virus even before exposure and antibodies.

• T-cells will remember the old coronavirus you’ve been exposed to in your life.

(20:59) Is quarantine effective?

• Common sense says, quarantine only if you are high risk.

• Otherwise for the healthy, the fatality rate is 0.1% or lower.

• Considering death rates:

  • 2,813, 503  died in 2017

  • At the half way mark in July 2020  - we’re on the similar track in deaths. (Meaning there was no great influx due to Covid-19)

(26:16) Host Defense:

• Terrain theory vs. Germ theory 

  • Don’t be a petri dish for Covid-19!

  • Work on the terrain: nutrition, hydration, movement, and peace.

    • Breathe deeply- oxygenate

    • Get sunlight

    • Food that nourishes

  • It’s not the genes, it’s not the germs, it’s the terrain!

  • Consequences of lack of stewardship.

  • If the solution is simple, God must be there.

(38:30) Mitochondria:

• Organelle inside you cell— mitochondria are your source of energy.

  • ATP

  • Free radials

• Good news is when you learn how to steward your body, your learn of God’s design, you can decrease risk of disease.

• Books referenced in the video:

  • Cancer as a Metabolic Disease

  • The Alzheimer’s Antidote

  • How to End the Autism Epidemic 

  • Human Heart Cosmic Heart

  • Nutrition and Physical Degeneration

• How to boost mitochondria:

  • Time restricted eating  & fasting

  • Avoid seed oils - pro-inflammatory, gunk up your carburetor 

  • Lower carbs

  • Minerals and sea salt

    • Food is now de-mineralized

(45:45) Fight-or-Flight
