Gary Brecka told Joe:

“The truth is that you really need a full spectrum of Essential Amino Acids (EAAs)… and I’m telling you that’s a game changer for your workout, brother”

EAAs may be the secret reason why others are outperforming you.

Here are the reasons why: 🧵 Image
Your body doesn’t actually use protein. It uses the building blocks of protein—amino acids.

Your body combines amino acids to form bone, muscles, hormones & neurotransmitters.

Your body can produce most of the amino acids it needs.

But there’s a twist…
There are 9 amino acids your body CANNOT produce.

You need to consume these 9 in order to function.

That's why they're called "Essential Amino Acids" or EAAs.

With these 9, your body can make all the rest.

Cool huh? Image
Protein has two major problems.

They require a highly acidic stomach to break them down and healthy intestines to absorb them.

Poor digestion leads to protein deficiency.

EAAs solve this problem.

EAAs are already broken down & absorbed within minutes.
Next, you need to know the dirty truth about protein, especially protein powders, which are garbage.

Why? Besides being highly processed & unnatural

Protein powders have the wrong ratio of amino acids.

In fact, whey and soy protein are less than 20% utilized! Image
Inside the body, most proteins convert more into sugar than muscle.

This is because their balance of amino acids is way off.

A properly balanced EAA supplement solves this second problem as well.

Providing all 9 essential amino acids in the correct ratio.
I spent months researching EAAs.

Most EAA drink powders are loaded with artificial sweeteners & flavors.

And “all-natural” EAA drink powders taste like ass.

I solved this by creating ULTIMATE EAA tablets.

No fillers, binders, or other crap - just EAAs amazon.com/dp/B0CKTQH4XQ?…
And if you’ve tried protein powders or BCAAs, you might think you’re covered.

But the truth is, these options are incomplete.

EAAs are far superior because they:

• Enter the bloodstream rapidly. No digestion is needed.
• Give you the complete profile of 9 amino acids
Another cool thing about EAAs is they have an extremely low caloric impact.

This makes them great for maintaining muscle—even on extreme diets.

But the main users of EAAs are athletes, gym junkies, and weekend warriors.

Those looking to support healthy energy and recovery.
That’s a wrap.

Salt flushing is the most powerful way to cleanse your colon.

It can help with fatigue, skin issues, and a sluggish immune system.

I've tested this myself, and the results were incredible.

Here's how to do it safely: 🧵
Your colon (large intestine) can hold SEVERAL POUNDS of toxic waste.

This waste contains toxins you've consumed and serves as a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, viruses, and parasites.

Before starting a salt flush, ask yourself:

How many daily bowel movements do I have?
If it's less than 2, your body is holding onto toxins longer than it should.

Think of your digestive system as a conveyor belt: food in, waste out shortly after.

When that system backs up, everything above it gets compromised.

A clogged colon = a sick body.

Scientists just cracked the multiple sclerosis code after decades of searching.

Two specific gut bacteria are triggering the disease, and they've proven it using identical twins and mice.

This changes everything we know about MS:
For decades, researchers have been hunting through the gut microbiome looking for MS triggers.

They finally found them.

Using 81 pairs of identical twins where only one had MS, they eliminated genetic variables completely.

What they discovered was groundbreaking ↓
Two bacterial species kept showing up in higher numbers in MS-affected twins:

• Eisenbergiella tayi
• Lachnoclostridium

Both live in the ileum (small intestine), where inflammatory T cells gather before attacking the brain.

This location matters more than you think. Image

Most people don’t know this:

The World Health Organization classifies night shift work as a probable cause of cancer.

Artificial light at night destroys your health more than you think.

Here’s the breakdown: 🧵
The cancer research arm of the WHO categorizes night shift work as a probable carcinogen.

Same category as:
• UV radiation
• A chemical found in fried foods (acrylamide)
• A substance in tobacco smoke (benzoapyrene)

1 in 5 workers worldwide is exposed daily. Image
Why?

Because light at night destroys your circadian rhythm.

Exposure to typical indoor light after sunset suppresses melatonin by 50%.

Melatonin isn’t just a sleep hormone, but also a tumor suppressor.

Half your body’s defense is gone with one late Netflix binge.

Microplastics are POISONING us—slowly, silently, and PERMANENTLY.

There are TRILLIONS of microplastics everywhere, and they’re

the highest they’ve ever been in our bodies—brain, liver, lungs, everywhere.

But don't panic—there are solutions: 🧵
Experts have studied microplastics since the 1960s.

But just in the last 5 years, they’ve been found in the blood, brain, semen & placenta.

They’re in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the clothes we wear.

Just how small are these invaders? Image
Microplastics range in size from microscopic nanoparticles to a few millimeters.

There are 2 types:

Primary: Manufactured particles used in cosmetics, clothing, etc.

Secondary: Particles broken down from larger plastics.

They penetrate us through food, air, and water.

Glycine is the most overlooked supplement for longevity.

It makes you look younger, slows aging, and improves brain function.

Andrew Huberman & Peter Attia swear by it to stay in peak condition in their 50s.

Here's the science behind glycine (& how to use it correctly): 🧵 Image
First off, what is glycine?

Glycine is a non-essential amino acid—your body naturally makes a small amount, but not enough for optimal health.

And modern diets leave most people deficient in glycine.

Here's why that’s a big deal as you age: Image
1. Glycine builds collagen

Collagen keeps your skin firm, joints smooth, and bones strong.

As you age, its production slows down.

Glycine forms the foundation of collagen. Without it, your body can’t restore what aging destroys.

But that isn’t the only thing glycine powers…

PEPTIDES are the best-kept secret in modern medicine.

They heal your body, boost muscle growth, and even slow aging.

They might even explain how celebs like Hugh Jackman & Jennifer Aniston still look 30 in their 50s.

Here's everything you need to know about them: 🧵 Image
First off, what are peptides?

They’re short chains of amino acids—tiny proteins made of 2 to 50 building blocks.

They act like messengers, telling your body to heal, regenerate tissue, and balance hormones.

But why should you care about them?
As you get older, your body produces fewer peptides.

• Recovery slows
• Energy fades
• Hormones go out of sync

Peptide therapy steps in to restore what’s missing—so you bounce back faster and feel stronger.

Let’s look at what they can do: Image
