I’m embarrassed I didn’t know about this sooner. Here’s what you need to know about GRAS. Detoxify 1000s of Chemicals From Your Body Just With Food: ▶️ https://youtu.be/HN0yEn4vbRw 0:00 Introduction: What is GRAS? 0:25 The truth about GRAS 1:20 A deeper look at certain chemicals  5:50 Learn more about detoxification! Let’s talk about the term GRAS (generally recognized as safe). GRAS applies to chemicals that are in our environment and food. GRAS implies that the chemical is regulated and has been through a lot of safety studies. However, the FDA allows companies to self-certify their chemicals as safe. There are about 10,000 chemicals in our food supply, and 99% of them have not been reviewed for safety. GRAS is more of a loophole that companies use to imply that their chemicals are safe despite outside testing. Six chemicals that are generally recognized as safe:  1. Nitrates:  • Help preserve meat  • Increase shelf life  • Increase the risk of cancer  • Could be in your drinking water 2. BHA: • A preservative  • An endocrine disruptor  • A carcinogen 3. BHT:  • A preservative  • An endocrine disruptor  • Toxic to the liver and kidneys  • Increases cancer risk 4. Potassium bromide:  • A dough conditioner used in many flour products  • A carcinogen  • Can inhibit iodine 5. Brominated vegetable oil: • A flavor stabilizer in beverages  • A flame retardant  • Can harm the nervous system and brain  • Can affect your memory  • Can interfere with iodine 6. Titanium dioxide  • Gives candy a smooth texture and brightens colors  • Can cause DNA damage  • Increases cancer risk  • A heavy metal Our bodies have the ability to get rid of a lot of these poisons if we don’t consume too many. However, some people have a problem with their detoxification genes. This means that they have a lessened ability to get rid of these poisons. The best thing to do is to try to avoid these chemicals and consume foods that support the detoxification process, like cruciferous vegetables.

Let’s talk about the best natural things to do for advanced liver disease. The liver goes through stages, which may start with inflammation, develop into a fatty liver, and then turn into cirrhosis (scar tissue). On average, it takes about ten years to go from having a fatty liver to having cirrhosis. In many cases, during that process, there are no symptoms of a liver problem. However, the liver is very robust. It’s one of the only organs that can completely regenerate. But, there is a point of no return. So, it’s crucial to act now if you're trying to reverse fatty liver disease. The best things to do for advanced liver disease: 1. Get into autophagy 2. Start fasting 3. Take TUDCA 4. Trigger phase 1 and phase 2 detoxification 5. Consume milk thistle 6. Take tocotrienols Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Different forms of magnesium help with different health issues. Learn more about the benefits of magnesium L-threonate. For more details on this topic, check out the full article on the website: ➡️https://drbrg.co/4dtxsbx DATA: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9820677/ 0:00 Introduction: Magnesium explained 0:10 What is magnesium L-threonate? 0:45 Benefits of magnesium threonate? 5:18 What is the best type of magnesium? 5:40 Get unfiltered health information by signing up for my newsletter Magnesium comes in many different forms. Today, I want to cover magnesium threonate or magnesium L-threonate. This is a specific type of magnesium. Threonate transports magnesium across the blood-brain barrier to the hippocampus. The hippocampus is involved in memory, learning, focus, and concentration. People typically take magnesium L-threonate when they want to support the brain. A magnesium deficiency can lead to various issues related to the brain and throughout the body. Benefits of magnesium L-threonate: • It may help reduce worry and anxiety (especially when trying to sleep) • It may help decrease neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration • It’s a calcium regulator and antagonist • It helps maintain and support the blood-brain barrier • It can act as an antioxidant • It helps support BDNF • It may help with androgenic alopecia If you want to use magnesium to support the brain, I would use magnesium threonate. To support other issues like cramping or fatigue or to support the heart, I would take magnesium glycinate. Magnesium citrate can be helpful as well, especially to help prevent kidney stones.

Drinking it right before a meal What to do: • Consume lemon water at least a half hour before you eat. 2. Not diluting it with water and not using a straw What to do: • Dilute your lemon juice with water and drink it through a straw. 3. Drinking it if you have an ulcer or gastritis What to do: • Lemon water will cause a burning sensation in this situation. Avoid anything acidic if you have an ulcer or inflammation in the stomach. 4.
