Dave Asprey talks with Teri Cochrane about how diet shapes amyloid buildup and histamine levels in your body. Industrial meat accelerates aging and disease. They cover what amyloids do in illness and which tests and foods actually matter.
I want to talk more about amyloids, amyloid excretion, what we can do if there's no choice but eating regular industrial meat.
This is a really big passion focus for me because of the massive downstream impact of autoimmunity and acute illness that these amyloids are creating. It's the anti longevity play. If you eat the dirty bird, you're just shortening your life, literally in the United States. I can say that unequivocally. Why? So as we talked about, the tortured animals have these truncated protein structures in their tissues that cannot be, Cannot be destroyed by any cooking process that has been created to date. And so one of the things that I believe I was pioneering in is that I had an end stage cancer client who had amyloid doses. End stage amyloidosis turned to cancer wrapped around its heart, put him into congestive heart and kidney failure. Two rounds of chemo failed. He was given his last rice. Go home and die. And somehow they found me. This was over a decade ago. And I started researching, what the heck are amyloids? I'm like, oh, my God, where are they coming from? Oh, they're coming from our food supply. Holy moly. What do amyloids do? Oh, they make cancer. Oh, they turn on viruses. They create autoimmunity. And so this gentleman that had been given his last rights, the marker of amyloids in his body were light chains. Within three months of reducing the amyloid burden, taking down his histamine, his sulfur, he had. He had the full enchilada, sulfur oxalate, histamine. You had to manage it all. His light chains had normalized. Wow, that's impossible.
His what?
Light chains, which are the marker for amyloids.
Okay, and how do I get that measured?
Uh, it's a blood. Blood test.
Okay. It's a live blood cell analysis.
Yes. Live blood cell. It's light chain. And I don't even think it has to be live blood cell. It's just your serum. It is a live blood cell. It's serum. Serum blood. Just go get it. And they'll test your light chain numbers. Okay, so this guy is alive a decade later, no cancer. Go figure. So I thought I was on to something. So what else do amyloids do? Oh, my gosh. They help spark the viruses that live within us, that have been hanging out, leaving us alone because we've all been exposed. Viral structures are us. There's more of them than us. Virus, bacteria, fungi, parasites. We coexist. Well, they make them bullies in our sandbox. And then all of a sudden, you had mono when you were 14. And now at 40, you have Hashimoto's and they put you on a bunch of thyroid medication, but you can't process that. So that thyroid medication makes you wonko and makes you gain 70 pounds, because you can't process the thyroid hormone, which is turning on your estrogen, which is making you fluffy and competing with your serotonin. So it's making you super depressed and anxious.
Wow.
Right? So amyloids now are contributing to this viral reactivation. But guess what they also do. They. The fragments build biofilm. And they take DNA fragments from our GI tract, which multiply every three or, you know, they regenerate every four to five days, and those fragments will create biofilm. And that biofilm is going to fortify your mold. It's going to fortify anything that is has a lipid structure. Candida strep strap is tied to pediatric neuropsychiatric disorder, which I work a lot with kids trying to kill their parents, and they are seven. I work a lot with that. And we've been very successful against Candace, against. Against this pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorder. We've been very successful. But we've got to rid the viruses and the bacteria. So it's not just about viral reactivation. It's DNA fragments forming biofilm. And then I. And then the biofilm will make more amyloids. So I call it the ping pong effect. And then the amyloids will create the viral. Will help protect the viral structure.
Hey, I've got a really good recipe for sliced, like, slivered almond chicken breast on top of kale salad. Would you. Would you like to join me?
No poison on my plate. I'll pass. I'll go fast.
Okay. If you had to eat a bowl of almonds or a chicken breast, which would it be?
Oh, my. Oh, that is such a. I would say I would eat a bowl of. Oh, that is such a hard question. Pass, Dave, pass.
You can't pass. You gotta eat one.
Okay, So I would say chicken is so destructive, and because in the pandemic environment, we know that spike protein makes them in vectors of amyloids. I'll eat the almonds, and then I'll take a bunch of my wildlife vitamin B6, a heck of a lot of salt, some antihistamines, and try to pass the almonds. It's very destructive. But guess what? The oxalates also are they. They play with amyloids, but it would be an indirect hit to contribute to amyloids because of the biofilm that they also create it.
So it was a trick question. You're supposed to say that you eat the politician who is trying to force you to choose between the two. Because politicians are made out of meat.
Oh, my God, I love it. I tried to pass. You gave me no choice.
By the way, anytime a politician says they're going to force you to eat crickets, the answer is you're made out of meat. And I don't eat crickets. That's just. That's how the world. I don't want to go dark on things like that, but we. I mean, a man's got to eat and a woman, apparently, but you know, it's like we're just not going to do that. And I'm not going to force my kids into some sort of nonsense climate change driven thing when we clearly know who makes glyphosate, we clearly know who allowed it to be sprayed, we clearly know who's doing this and if they're going to use regulations on the stuff. No, I will not go back to feeling like all the time because I spent too much of my life doing it and it was entirely avoidable. I should not spend $2 million first half of that to fix myself. The other half, I just did it for fun, to upgrade myself. But the number of people suffering right now is enormous. And we did it. And there are people who knew what they were doing. You're listening to the Human Upgrade with Dave Asprey.
