00:00our lifestyles in terms of the western diet in terms of the western lifestyle is about as far

00:06away from being natural as we can possibly get most people in the western world are overweight

00:12why most people are brain fog why most people just don't have the energy that they once thought they

00:17had marketing has changed for people to be attracted to junk food getting people addicted

00:24to junk food and then getting people addicted to the medications to to sort them out from eating

00:29so much junk food is just a business model in itself the junk food providers fill our supermarkets

00:37with what they call food which clearly isn't because it's loaded with sugar it's loaded with

00:43garbage to put up their profit and who really cares about the end consumer as long as you buy it and

00:48eat it and come back to the north and if you do it for a week mark my words you will see a drastic

00:54difference you will start to become healthy you will start to see some of those

00:59ailments reverse and you will start to see a much healthier you and that brain fog and that

01:06level of ability that you used to have will come back so how do you do it what's the way what's

01:13the method well the first method is welcome to the john mclaughlin podcast this is the john mclaughlin

01:22podcast i'm john mclaughlin and in this episode we're going to talk about something a little bit

01:26different usually in the podcast we talk about affiliate marketing or we talk about business

01:32online marketing being an online business owner but one of the fundamental things about being a

01:38successful business owner is being fit and healthy now this isn't going to be a podcast about how to

01:44eat the right foods or have a a special diet that i've just found out nothing to do with that because

01:50i appreciate that everybody is different but in order to maximize what we do and get the most out

01:57of what the energy that we've got we need to we need to be operating right physically and also

02:03psychologically and that all comes down to being healthy and being fit and let me tell you i know

02:09this from first-hand experience from sitting too long in my office a couple of years ago eating the

02:16wrong foods and also getting a pulmonary embolism which is a blood clot in your lung which you know

02:22can be pretty serious if you don't treat it um and really when these things happen it really sort of

02:28brings it home about how how important health really is particularly when you're an online or when you're a

02:35business owner per se any business owner if you lose your abilities of work or if you don't have a

02:40process or a system in place then you're pretty much done okay in terms of being self-employed

02:48i'm also outside today as well so you know typically motorbikes aeroplanes helicopters flavor

02:53as soon as i start recording so what i'm going to talk about here isn't anything to do with a particular

03:00regime what i'm going to talk about is fundamental principles about how you can improve your overall

03:09body to optimize it in the right way and the majority of the reasons why most people in the

03:16western world are overweight why most people are brain fog why most people just don't have the energy

03:23that they want thought they had a few years ago um let me know if you can kind of resonate with this

03:30um what i want to talk about here is this our lifestyles in terms of the western diet in terms of the

03:38western lifestyle is about as far away from being natural as we can possibly get or let me just say

03:45the majority of people eat rubbish food their lifestyles are stressed and we compensate or try

03:51and mitigate that by trying to take us away from that environment and some sometimes that can be through

03:57the misuse of food or drugs or alcohol or whatever okay let me tell you where we're going to start

04:05with this it all comes down to our blood acidity now in the way that we we operate the blood runs

04:16either acid or alkaline or somewhere in the middle in terms of the acid alkaline balance number seven

04:23is a good balance if we operate slightly alkaline that's when we can start to optimize our health and

04:30our fitness and our psychological ability to go out there and and crush it if you like you know

04:35the reason why this is so important is because when our blood gets more acidic our body then

04:43compensates okay and the way that our blood gets acidic is down to number one stress number two alcohol

04:50number three eaten garbage food okay so we can probably all resonate with that at some point

04:56but when the blood gets too acidic what happens is the body then compensates so you go to the gym

05:01you lift weights your body gets bigger because your body is compensating when your blood gets acidic

05:07it compensates because that's what it has to do and what it says is okay the blood is getting acidic

05:13let's coat the veins let's coat the arteries with a substance to protect it because if we don't

05:20it may well burn through and then we can end up with internal bleeding so it coats it with a substance

05:25called cholesterol okay we all know what cholesterol is and if you do some proper research you'll know

05:31that cholesterol isn't the main killer okay it's the lifestyle that we lead and the stress that we

05:37have because our blood acidity is too strong okay so the body coats it with cholesterol as an online

05:44business owner you're going to want to get access to some of the best information you can find and

05:48that's why i put together the online business roadmap it's all about setting up your online business in the

05:53right way to get everything set up and completed in a weekend in module one getting off to a fast start

05:59in module two we talk about the three essential elements to get into profits quickly so module three

06:04is one of the big takeaways with this course we have our residential behavioral scientist jules reed

06:10and she talks about most of the common things that people struggle with imposter syndrome about yes

06:16you do have things to share as a beginner procrastination staying focused and achieving success

06:21as a new or an existing online business owner go to the link below click it and you can get access

06:28to this course for absolutely free in addition to that as well you'll also get access to all the free

06:33courses within mclaughlin academy these are not free courses in disguise you will get a ton of value

06:39from these courses so go to the link below follow the instructions and i'll see you in the inside

06:44back to the show you probably all know that you know the guy or the woman that's fit and healthy and

06:51always went out running they were always at the top of their game and one day they dropped down dead

06:56with a heart attack and you think is it just one of those things maybe it runs in the family and we

07:02come out with all these kind of reasons as to why it could have happened the main reason is because

07:08the blood is too acidic the body is full of cholesterol in the wrong places in the arteries and the veins

07:14and that causes problems okay now the biggest cause of acidity in the blood is stress number one how many

07:24people feel stressed how many people do you feel it in your gut when something happens and you get those

07:29horrible pounds of stress and it takes a number of days to get rid of it now the way to get rid of stress

07:37is either the body's natural reaction is to shake okay you look at animals in the wild they shake

07:43and that's their way of getting rid of stress so if you see a gazelle getting chased by a lion in the

07:48wild okay he gets chased for two or three minutes if it's lucky it escapes it shakes a little bit and

07:55then two minutes later it's back eating grass and you go how does that happen okay if you're a human

08:00being you need counseling for six months okay it's because they've got those those resources available

08:04and we don't tap into those resources we don't do it we just let our build stress our stress

08:09build up and when those that stress then builds up and we have too much cortisol and too many stress

08:16hormones that's when the blood turns acidic and that's when that can lead to additional diseases

08:22and problems within the body if we don't get rid of them okay so how do you get rid of stress okay diet

08:28number one exercise massages and also talking about the situation so in the terms of when i was a police

08:35officer and something used to happen that was really bad we used to come in and have a debrief

08:39and that was the debrief was not just for gaining evidence but also to make sure we were okay as a

08:46welfare check okay so we we talked it through and when you went home how was your day well it was all

08:52right you know bearing in mind what just happened so that's really important to get rid of stress number

08:58two let's talk about diet the way that most people eat i won't say most people but let me let me take

09:06it from a different angle the way that a lot of marketing has changed for people to be attracted to

09:13junk food getting people addicted to junk food and then getting people addicted to the medications to

09:19to sort them out from eating too much junk food is just a business model in itself and i'm going to say

09:25that straight because i think most people will appreciate that the junk food providers the food

09:35producers fill our supermarkets with what they call food which clearly isn't because it's loaded with

09:44sugar it's loaded with garbage to put up their profit and who really cares about the end consumer as

09:52long as you buy it and eat it and come back to them all okay take breakfast cereals as a prime example

09:57so we're constantly doing that every single day and we start our day sometimes with breakfast cereals

10:03loaded with sugar spikes the insulin levels the body has to compensate it gets stressed it produces more

10:09acid we then start that that chain reaction again okay even things like having your your sunday roast

10:18you know your meat your potatoes your gravy you're going to put some salt in there probably going to

10:23be a processed salt it's going to add to that to that acidity building up and just our general

10:32lifestyle the western lifestyle is not geared towards being fit and healthy unless you take responsibility

10:41and unless you go out and do something about it and the other thing about stress and the other thing

10:47about what i've just said is that the stress hormones that are produced over a long period of time if

10:53they don't get taken away in the ways that i've just suggested they'll get stored in the body and

10:59they get stored in the fat cells so if you're somebody who is struggling to lose a bit of weight and

11:04you're doing all the right things you're you're doing the exercise you think you're eating the right

11:09way but you've got too much stress and you can't shift the fat it's because you've got too much stress

11:13and if you are able to take measures to reduce that stress eliminate that stress and then begin to

11:23alkalize your body which is the mitigating factor against acid then you will start to become healthy

11:30you will start to see some of those ailments reverse and you will start to see a much healthier you

11:36and that brain fog and that level of ability that you used to have will come back so how do you do it

11:45what's the way what's the method well the first method is really making the decision to do it okay

11:53and you might say okay i'm sick and tired of this let's go and do it and there's a lot of people in

11:59that situation who they just don't quite have the right motivation because they go okay well i want to

12:05get really fit and healthy but can i still sit in front of a telly and eat crisps can i still eat

12:09chips and it's like no okay get serious about your your health okay because you've only got one body

12:16and have a want to go and do it now the way that you do it is you eat foods that when they get

12:23metabolized in the body they turn into an alkaline but let me tell you for example something like a

12:29lemon it looks acidic it tastes acidic but when it's metabolized in the body it turns it turns

12:35alkaline this is why lemons are really good for you okay so the other thing is greens green drinks

12:41green vegetables green fruits anything that is green is going to have an alkalizing effect so

12:48broccoli cabbage and all these all these things you know eat them and what i would say to you

12:55is if you set yourself out to say let's do it for a week a week of drinking water a week of drinking

13:04um green uh drinks things like wheatgrass things like the the live good super greens they really

13:12are well balanced to have a detoxing effect and an alkalizing effect on your body and if you do it

13:18for a week mark my words you will see a drastic difference if you actually do it and this is the

13:26key most people not prepared to do it okay i talk about fasting all the time when i first did a fast

13:34i did a two-week fast most people do 48 hours i did like a two-week fast and everybody i spoke to said

13:41you know what are you doing you're clearly looking really good and you're losing weight and i was training

13:45hard at the time and i said i'm doing a fast i'm doing a two-week fast and everybody i spoke to said

13:49i couldn't do that no chance i couldn't do that but if you're faced with a health issue then you are

13:56okay so green drinks green fruit and vegetables broccoli cabbage all those kinds of things will

14:03prepare them so you want to forget about meat for the time being if you're going to detoxify and

14:09alkalize you ought to be eating things like wheatgrass wheatgrass is really good and i'll tell you one thing

14:14about wheatgrass when i first started taking wheatgrass i i first learned about this detoxifying and

14:21alkalizing effect i made up my wheatgrass and it tasted like fish it was horrendous and what happened

14:29was and this is because my body was really acidic so if you continue to detoxify and your body continues

14:37to alkalize then what happens is that wheatgrass becomes actually quite pleasant quite pleasant taste

14:43your palate changes and it becomes quite sweet and quite nutty and you quite enjoy the experience

14:50what i was really surprised about with the super greens from livegood was the fact that it was

14:55actually quite sweet it had a quite an orangey flavor because it's blended but it's really well

15:00blended and it contains wheatgrass as well so i definitely recommend that um but the more acidic you

15:07are the more the longer you've gone through the process of abusing yourself with with stress and

15:13with bad foods and lifestyle then the more of a shock it's going to be but what i'm going to tell

15:18you is this if you're looking to lose weight then detoxifying yourself and alkalizing yourself will

15:25help you to lose that weight it'll shift that weight and it what it does it just sort of shifts your

15:30whole body back into a natural rhythm back into more of what we should be doing to protect ourselves

15:37and what we should be doing to to look after ourselves instead of the constant abuse that we

15:42give it and i'll be honest we do abuse our bodies every single day with stress you know and just the

15:49lifestyle that we have in the west so there we go so do that go for the whole green thing drink water

15:57don't drink coffee don't drink tea get rid of as many toxins as possible and you'll see a dramatic

16:02difference now there's one other thing that i'm going to add to this and i could probably do this

16:07in a separate podcast but i want to talk about sugar and if you can get rid of as much sugar from your diet

16:16either added sugar or non-added sugar that you don't know about then that will have a dramatic

16:22difference as well what i would say is do the the detoxification and the alkalizing first

16:28then remove sugar and remove sugar i would say permanently from your diet now when i had my pe

16:36i decided to go on the carnivore diet i'm not recommending any particular diet but what i'm saying

16:41is that regardless of who you are regardless of your body shape or anything that you've been used to in

16:47the past if you remove sugar from your diet everybody will see a dramatic difference and a

16:53change in your overall performance and lifestyle or your overall overall performance and things like

17:01bread i mean i used to have about 16 rounds of bread every single day with with butter on it with

17:06something i call marmite which is i just used to love um but i was training really intensely and yet i was

17:13still carrying a lot of weight and it was a it was a challenge let me tell you it was a challenge

17:18coming off sugar because it's highly highly addictive and it's in everything you go to the

17:24supermarket and you buy chicken you buy a a box of cooked chicken it's full of sugar because it adds to

17:32the weight therefore adds to the value okay for the for the for the producer of that meat it's no good for

17:39the end user but why why do that you know why not just go out buy fresh chicken and fry it and what

17:46i'll say as well is that all the things that your grandma used to cook with like butter like ghee like

17:52lard they're all good okay they've all been demonized by these um food manufacturers to make us to buy their

17:59their soy stuff and their blended oils that just really don't belong in the human body so

18:05go natural okay after you've done your detoxification and stay away from sugar one of

18:13the worst things that you can have in a morning is breakfast cereals i thought i was doing well

18:18with my bottle of alp and an orbran in the morning and then you realize that it's full of sugar and what

18:23happens now is because i've been off the sugar for well i've reduced my sugar i reduced my sugar

18:30completely to about zero um for about a year and then every now and again i'll try like a

18:36pudding or something like that and i it doesn't agree with me it's uh i get stomach gripes and then

18:42i've kind of gone i've got to go and uh go and have a visit for a little while and it's not good and it

18:48just shows you once your body becomes fat dependent rather than sugar dependent the the pain the bad

18:57effect that sugar has on the body uh in terms of inflammation uh and we know that inflammation

19:04is a cause of many things we how many people now have got diabetes and it's all down to you know

19:11just that lack of education uh because we've all been geared and and steered towards you know buying

19:18the products that the manufacturers and the and the lobbied companies want to want to want to sell it

19:26um so that is going to make a dramatic difference so think about your blood sugar so your blood acidity

19:34so you you want your your blood acid or your blood levels to be slightly um slightly alkaline and you

19:42can do that by getting rid of all the foods uh having a detox and uh an alkalization of of your body

19:50with green food water do it for a week and what i would say is stick with it stick with it and let me

19:58tell you what's going to happen you're going to go into a detox you're going to follow the advice

20:05and you're going to start craving sugar probably probably within the first few hours craving sugar is

20:13the worst thing i'll tell you what i'll be honest with you even now even now i've been off the sugar for

20:18what 18 months i still have cravings and what happens is i i open the cupboards and open the

20:24fridge far too often i really should looking for you know that sugar rush and even though you can

20:30have eggs you can have steak you can all you can have all the really good foods your body still wants

20:35that sugar hits because the brain is addicted to it okay the other thing i'm going to mention before

20:41we go is about cholesterol now you'll hear people in certain circles talking about an excessive

20:51consumption of cholesterol particularly in eggs and particularly in other kind of foods let's

20:57stick let's stick with eggs now eggs is probably the best all-round protein and amino acid nutrition

21:06that you can take uh and i'm proof of that because you know when i got onto the the carnivore diet i

21:12actually started eating about 10 10 eggs a day or thereabouts still do eat 10 eggs a day and um

21:19it's it i i actually lost weight okay i actually lost weight a lot of people who do that lose weight as

21:27well okay so it's it's so important to really understand your body understand what's going on

21:33and understand that a lot of the things the majority of things that you hear and listen and a lot of the

21:40marketing that we're exposed to is designed to keep you overweight it's designed to keep you on the

21:47back foot and it's designed to keep you medicated and that's just an unfortunate fact of the world that

21:53we live in but with the right education and with the right approach you can change everything so if

21:58you're suffering right now take some advice from this podcast reach out to me in any way that you

22:04want to i'm more than happy to answer your questions and to to to give you some advice about or about how
