ROBERT KENNEDY JR is RIGHT about seed oils,

but the media wants to convince you he is crazy.

Let’s fact check the fact checkers, expose their ridiculous logic and explain why avoiding seed oils is not a “conspiracy theory” ⬇️Image I’ll be going through the recent New York Times article on the matter, not to single them out, but as a representative piece - just know that there are tons of these types and they all use the same arguments and tactics. nytimes.com/2024/11/09/wel…

Vitamin K2: the most underappreciated nutrient

One of my absolute favorite supplements. Why?

Vitamin K2 is actually used as a part of mitochondrial metabolism, in a similar manner to that of Coenzyme Q 10.

Due to this it has an INCREDIBLE range of beneficial properties:

1. COGNITIVE

Vitamin K2 can treat depression.

MK-7 improves depression at just 90 ug/day, a pretty puny dose, through its:

◦ Energy producing, pro mitochondria
◦ Hormone mediating
◦ Anxiolytic

properties.

In fact, low levels of Vitamin K nearly DOUBLES the risk of suicide attempt.

K2 reverses anxiety & depression.

These effects are very evident in animals, where the pro-energy effects of K2 bulletproof mental health.

Vitamin K2 reverses aging in the brain.

Giving K2 (MK-7) to old animals (5 mg / kg human equivalent) improved:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Memory

by:

• Improving dopamine output
• Reducing inflammation
• Reducing oxidative stress

In animals subject to stress, it:

‣ Decreased signs of anxiety
‣ Decreased signs of depression

Vitamin K2 exerts neuroprotective effects, as it:

‣ Enhances neuron mitochondrial function
‣ Prevents death of dopamine producing neurons

2. ANDROGENIC

Vitamin K2 boosts testosterone production.

By enhancing key steroidogenic enzymes in the testes, MK-4 enhances the gonadal response to stimulation.

3. INSULIN SENSITIZING

Due to its pro mitochondrial properties, K2 was able to restore blood sugar in response to a bad diet in animals.

Vitamin K2 megadosing improves insulin sensitivity in humans.

One study showed that 90 mg of K2 daily (MK-4) reduced insulin secretion to maintain blood sugar.

Another study confirmed Vitamin K2 megadosing markedly improves insulin resistance.

30 mg/day of MK-4 for 4 weeks enhanced glucose metabolism.

K2 evokes biochemical modifications to proteins that improve hormonal functioning & metabolism.

Low dose vitamin K2 reverses fatty liver disease in animals.

Less than 1 mg human equivalent dose MK-7 daily completely protects and regenerates the liver.

High liver enzymes (ALT, AST, GGT, ALP) are the red flag - would consider supplementation.

4. GUT HEALTH

One of my personal favorites for the gut, working on fundamental pathways to enhance digestion.

K2 is

⬨ Antibacterial
⬨ Anti-inflammatory
⬨ Key for intestinal cell function

I use anywhere from 20-40 mg of MK-4 situationally and have had success with clients in this range.

Animals given Crohn's disease, when also given Vitamin K2 (MK-4) (2.5 mg/kg human equivalent):

• Repaired gut damage and barrier
• Lowered inflammation
• Increased mucus production

comparable to the leading drug for IBD (ASA).

5. DENTAL HEALTH

K2 status is inversely related to:

⬩Severity of gum inflammation
⬩Plaque index
⬩Bleeding
⬩Depth of tooth pocket

Literally every dental clinical parameter.

K2 is a cornerstone of calcium metabolism, allowing for minerals to accumulate in bones and teeth properly and regenerate.

This is a huge reason why Weston Price never saw tooth decay in societies focusing on fat soluble vitamins!

K2 as MK-4 is found mainly in hard cheeses, egg yolks and beef liver.

As MK-7 it is found in the fermented Natto.

However, these therapeutic applications require higher amounts than you would otherwise get in food.

Both can be massively beneficial to supplement in doses higher than what you can get from food.

I use it all the time personally and with clients.

I’ll link the brand below.Image This is my preferred MK-4 source. healthnatura.com/true-k2-mk4-1-…

If you feel puffy, have “cortisol face,” are congested and feel like your body needs a reset, look no further.

You’re probably filled up with fluid that won’t leave until you address this.

Let’s talk about the LYMPH STAGNATION - why it is harmful & how to fix it:Image The purpose of the lymphatic system:

Your blood vessels deliver nutrients to your tissues around your body from your heart.

Lymphatic vessels take the “waste” from your tissues, filter it, and bring it back to the heart.

Wherever there is blood flow, there is lymph flow back.Image

Orange juice is literally one of the healthiest foods on the planet.

It has proven antidepressant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic and gut health promoting properties.

Don’t believe me? Let’s get into it:Image Orange juice has potent anti-inflammatory effects.

A McDonald’s meal causes inflammation from gut bacteria (endotoxin),

but having OJ with it:

- ELIMINATES increase in bacterial endotoxin
- Prevents inflammatory response.

Water could worsen the effects, but OJ halted them.Image
