[00:07] Proper lighting is crucial for your health as artificial light disrupts the human system more than many other factors. It's important to have lighting that mimics the natural rhythms of the day. Extreme avoidance of the sun or ignoring its importance are not ideal. Disrupted circadian rhythm has been linked to cancer. Unfortunately, people often overlook the impact of lighting on overall health and wellness.
[03:25] Repetition of messages is important for behavior change because people tend to follow what they hear the most. By repeating the message over and over again, we can ensure that action is taken.
[07:09] Iodine is crucial for dealing with the toxic load in the modern world. It helps counteract the negative effects of compression on the body. It's important to experiment and learn from past experiences with different treatments. Given the toxic environment we live in, iodine is even more important today. Insufficient iodine intake can contribute to early death rates. Therefore, iodine plays a key role in maintaining overall body health.
[10:41] Iodine structures in cells work differently than non-iodinated counterparts due to quantum principles. However, research on iodine and its effects on nutrition is limited. Following an iodine protocol can help taper off thyroid hormone, and iodine supplementation may reduce the need for thyroid hormone.
[14:10] Iodine improves redox in quantum health. Unfortunately, most quantum health researchers lack knowledge about iodine. High doses of iodine have significant benefits, and mineral balancing is crucial for optimal health. Many people overlook the importance of mineral balance, which may not be revealed by standard blood tests.
[17:37] Iodine is protective and increases basal metabolic rate. By competing with radioactive iodine, it prevents it from concentrating in the thyroid gland. Increasing thyroid hormone levels through iodine supplementation also increases basal metabolic rate and cellular bioenergetics, preventing cellular dysregulation and disease.
[20:42] Iodine helps improve overall health and performance by tuning the body's engine to work better and faster. Having a good circadian rhythm and drinking high-quality water enhances the effects of iodine. Additionally, iodine helps push out harmful toxins like fluoride and bromine. It has been used for centuries in medical practices and is considered safe. However, starting a new treatment may not always immediately make you feel better, and detoxing from fluoride and bromide may cause temporary breakouts.
[23:46] It's important to improve overall health before starting specific protocols like iodine. Check that liver, kidney function, and blood sugar control are in a good place. Evaluating the person's current health status through blood tests helps determine the best approach for treatment. Protocols tend to work better when the person is already in a healthier state. Simplifying the supplement regimen and focusing on fundamentals often leads to better results in coaching practices.
