00:00Today, I'm going to show you seven ways to stimulate your stem cells without having to
00:06go to a clinic and go through any surgical procedure or spend thousands and thousands
00:12of dollars. A stem cell is kind of like this reserve cell that can pretty much change into
00:17anything that you need. They're using it now to regenerate fibrosis, which then allows the heart
00:24muscle function to improve by 30%. They can do the same thing with liver fibrosis and damage brain
00:31cells. They're getting great results stimulating new cartilage in your joint. Some people are using
00:38it for autoimmune diseases like MS and also to help rejuvenate skin cells to actually make the skin
00:45young again. There's also stem cells for cancer. It's very important to understand how to keep that
00:53stem cell population at the highest level. Let's start with number one, fasting, specifically
00:59prolonged fasting. If you can fast for 72 hours, which is three days, you can in a major way boost
01:08certain stem cells, primarily for the gastrointestinal tract for your brain and your immune system. When
01:17you're fasting, you're not eating anything. You're just drinking water and you're basically clearing
01:21everything out of your digestive system. And because there's no food available for the cells,
01:27they actually start surviving better. And those stem cells start to repair damage within your
01:35digestive tract. And the other thing that's going on when you're fasting, your body's taking damaged
01:41tissue, recycling and turning that into new tissue. Intermittent fasting is important too. Of course,
01:49it's not going to be as potent as fasting longer. Number two, exercise. Exercise stimulates stem cells
01:58for your muscles and your brain. This is exercise where it's more intense. It's more difficult. You're
02:07using your full body in a functional way to create a lot of effort or intensity. And the most potent
02:14stimulus of the stem cell when you exercise is intensity. If you can do an intense exercise,
02:20short duration, the more stem cell you're going to stimulate. When you exercise, you're also going to
02:26stimulate something called BDNF, brain drive neurotrophic factor. This is like miracle grow for
02:36the brain. It allows you to make new nerve cells or brain cells. The other stem cells that you're going to
02:44develop when you exercise is the stem cells that help prepare the inside layer of the arteries
02:51called the endothelial layer. This is the layer that becomes damaged. And then a person will develop
02:58a clogged artery or inflammation. Guess what? Both fasting and exercise reduce inflammation. So that can
03:07indirectly influence your stem cells. We know as you age, the stem cells go down,
03:13exercise will preserve that to a certain degree. Number three, deep quality sleep. When you're
03:21sleeping, you're increasing melatonin. Melatonin increases the stem cells for your brain. Of course,
03:30on the opposite of that, when you have insomnia, that can inhibit your stem cells. Stress inhibits
03:37stem cells. A quality sleep can reduce cortisol stress, which can then indirectly increase stem
03:45cells. And also deep sleep will increase your immune system stem cell. And this is probably why
03:52when someone's sick, the more sleep they can get because it allows the body to strengthen the stem
03:57cells. Lastly, with regard to sleep, a quality sleep cycle can improve the stem cells that help the
04:05cardiovascular system, specifically the heart muscle itself. Think about it. The heart has to keep
04:11beating 24-7 all the time. And so it needs some time to rest. Well, it keeps beating even when you
04:17sleep. But with a really good quality sleep, you can actually at least develop more stem cells to help
04:24rejuvenate the heart tissue itself. And it's interesting that people that have insomnia have high risk of
04:31getting heart attacks. Good night rest can really help your heart. Number four, green tea, specifically
04:38a certain phytonutrient called EGCG. This chemical in green tea is an anti-inflammatory. Green tea, which is
04:48a very popular tea around the world, has the potential to increase stem cells for your brain and for your
04:56liver. And on top of that, it can decrease the stem cells for cancer cells, which is a good thing.
05:04Number five, omega-3 fatty acids. This would be the fish oils, the cod liver oil. Now, the big thing
05:12people know about these fish oils is that they're anti-inflammatory. So we already know that decreasing
05:18inflammation can increase stem cell. But omega-3 has the ability to increase stem cell for bone,
05:25cartilage, brain, and skin. Number six, vitamin D slash the sun. Both the sun and especially vitamin D
05:37will increase stem cells. And people that are deficient in vitamin D are going to have a problem
05:43with stem cells. And another interesting function of vitamin D is to help maintain the blood stem cells
05:50that are involved with your immune system. Vitamin D increases new immune cells. Vitamin D also prevents
05:59the exhaustion of stem cells, specifically of the brain, the immune system, and the muscles. This is
06:08probably another reason why vitamin D helps you live longer. And then number seven, cold therapy. I'm talking
06:15about cold immersion or even a cold shower, but being in the cold stimulates brown fat stem cells,
06:23which has a lot to do with muscle repair, decreasing inflammation, helps supporting the mitochondria
06:29with more blood flow in general, which brings more nutrition to the stem cells, as well as boosting a
06:36very specific protein. I've already talked about this, BDNF, brain-driven neurotrophic factor.
06:42This is the miracle growth for the brain. And it's pretty wild because every time I do the cold
06:47immersion, I feel like my brain is just working so much better. Personally, I've experienced that.
06:55It's pretty wild that cold helps your cognitive function do better, as well as your mood. I have
07:02mentioned a few things that destroy the stem cells. Inflammation, stress, lack of sleep. Junk food is another
07:10thing, alcohol, smoking, pollution, any chronic inflammation. The last point I want to bring up is
07:17this cancer stem cell. The stem cells for cancer act very similar to certain types of bacteria that do not
07:26need oxygen. One way to decrease the stem cell for cancer is to flood the body with oxygen. And this is why
07:38exercise is so important. This is why hyperbaric decreases certain types of cancer, because you're
07:44going in this tank and that you're infusing your body with oxygen. Because of what oxygen does to
07:49the nature of a stem cell for cancer, adding more oxygen will destroy it. And if we compare those cells
07:57to cancer cells, we have a very unique difference in relationship to genes that protect against
08:07dehydration. Our cells have at least 50 different genes that help us cope with dehydration. But the
08:16cancer cells have none of those genes. In other words, a cancer cell is more vulnerable to dehydration
08:24than our cells. How can we use this information? One of the things that people do is they do a dry
08:30fast where they're not drinking any water and they're fasting for a period of time. In fact,
08:35if you look at the data with dry fasting, you can actually triple your results. Apparently,
08:40it's more destructive to the cancer cells than our own cells because we are a little more protected.
08:47Let's say, for example, on a given day, you're fasting for 18 hours and you drank nothing,
08:53or you ate nothing. That would be an example of intermittent dehydration. We're not actually
09:01restricting the amount of water per day. We're just allocating certain amounts of water at certain
09:08times. It's something to look into, and I'm just putting it on your radar. Now, if you have not seen my
09:14video on dry fasting, you should check it out. It's pretty interesting. I'll put it up right here.
