In episode 792 of Extreme Health Radio, I cover a recent severe bout of food poisoning that hit right after launching the Inner Circle membership, compares it to a 2002 Costa Rica episode treated with antibiotics, and discusses prevention through adequate stomach acid, citing CDC statistics and a 1936 Mayo Clinic finding that many older adults produce insufficient stomach acid.

I talked about intense symptoms and outlines what helped most: activated charcoal, a “silver aloe protocol” (silver plus aloe vera juice), drinking ozonated water, probiotics including L. reuteri yogurt and Saccharomyces boulardii, berberine with goldenseal, electrolyte support with coconut water and sea salt, topical castor oil with red/near-infrared light, and PEMF with a Sota magnetic pulser.

I also covered Inner Circle features and emphasizes detoxification, cleansing, and preparedness with charcoal, silver, and ozone at home.

TRANSCRIPT:

All right, my friends. Welcome to episode 792 of Xtreme Health Radio. Today, we are going to talk about food poisoning and how it affects so many people, and I just got it. Right after we launched the Inner Circle, I came down with massive food poisoning, and it was a, a pain unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.

Although, one other time in my life I experienced it, and I’ll tell you about it. This was before I knew anything about health like I do now. So I wanna share with you a lot of the things that I did, and I wanna share with you what worked and what didn’t work. So we’ll get into that. But first, how are you guys doing with daylight savings time?

You guys adjusting correctly or okay, at least? Or Standard Time, I should call it. Yeah, I hope you guys are doing well with it.

We just recently, you pro- probably saw, had the launch of the Inner Circle program. That’s the program where I teach detoxification, detoxify, nourish, and build, and that went off amazingly well. It was so amazing to see so many of you guys join the Inner Circle. That was so fun. So we initially launched it at the yearly price, which is one ninety-nine, so it would be nineteen dollars and ninety-nine cents a month or every four weeks.

And so we initially launched it at the yearly price and then we had a few emails of people saying, “I really wanna join, but gosh, I can’t do it. I can’t, fork out that money.” So for the final two days, we made it available for nineteen dollars a month. It is now forty-nine dollars a month and four hundred and ninety-nine a year.

So if you wanna lock in the price, I would highly recommend. There’s a lot of things going on there. So we’re gonna be bringing back the live sessions.

There’s new protocols released every single month. All the protocols that we sell for forty-seven dollars, they’re released every single month as part of your subscription there along with other bonus material, workshop, and content, a-and Ask Justin series, where you ask me your audio questions, and I answer.

There’s a forum and community in there every day where people are interacting with each other and asking questions, and It’s really an awesome place. And another thing I’m gonna be doing is adding some additional softwares to it where you can track things like your daily health protocols, your yearly health protocols, your monthly, your twice-a-year health protocols that you do.

Maybe you donate blood, or maybe you do liver cleanses, twice a year. Maybe you do a, a colon cleanse once a year. Maybe you go to the colon hydrotherapist, or maybe you do workouts, three days a week or a sauna five days a week. So there’s gonna be a place to track and log all of that information, which is gonna be awesome, along with some software where you can find natural health practitioners, recipe databases.

I’m also working on, I forgot about this a place for you to get Extra discounts at, at, at places where you guys like to get supplements and biohacking tools and stuff so you can save extra money. So I’m working on that. So that’s we- we’ve already got a few companies we’re working with, haven’t nailed it all the way down completely yet.

So that’s gonna be really cool, where you can get like discounts that are not available publicly, that are higher than you can get anywhere else. So that’s coming soon as well as part of your ongoing membership. So come and join us over there. If you haven’t joined us, it’s awesome. It’s just a great place.

So come and join the inner circle. That’s gonna be a lot of fun. But right after we launched that, right after, my goodness, I came down with food poisoning, and the pain was incredible. It was absolutely incredible. I just was like almost in tears in so much pain. And so rather than do what I did when– the first time in my life when I got it in two thousand and two in Costa Rica.

And in two thousand and one, I don’t know if you guys know this, but in two thousand and one I was, what, twenty-five years old, and I– right after nine eleven I went traveling for a year. So I saved up a bunch of money, worked a bunch of corporate jobs, and saved up a bunch of money so I can go do a solo traveling trip around the world by myself for one year, and it was amazing.

It was the most… one of the most definitive times of my life. As, as, as a man at twenty-five years old, it’s just a great time to do something like that. So I went from California to Tonga as my first stop. Actually, Tahiti, then Tonga. And then from Tonga, I stayed there about a month. And then from Tonga, I went to New Zealand and visited family there in Waiheke Island, and I went to Auckland and Rotorua.

I almost went to the South Island. I didn’t make it down there. Did a lot of adventuring, met some amazing people, visited some farms, hiked some mountains. It was amazing. And then from there, I visited more family in Australia, and I stayed there for about a month and went up and down the East Coast, went up to Cairns and took a bus all the way from Cairns, from Northern Australia to back to Sydney, where my relatives live.

And then after that, I went to South Africa. And I surfed at some amazing spots with some of my friends and some people that I knew in Durban and Cape Town, and it was amazing time. That was just amazing. Great surf great people. Then from there, I went to flew over the coast of, or the continent of Africa to Greece, to Athens.

And then I took a bus and went down to the port, and then I took a ferry over to Santorini, Mykonos, and Crete, and that was amazing. All throughout Europe, France let’s see, Greece, Italy, France, and Spain, then Brazil, then Costa Rica. Or so Jamaica, then Costa Rica, then back to America. But in Costa Rica, I went out for a hamburger one night, and I…

It tasted a little bit weird, a little odd, and it was undercooked, but it tasted really good, but tasted different But whatever. And so I went back to the, my hotel or my place I was staying. I just started feeling very odd. The room was spinning. I got hot. It was just like, “What is happening?” And then I didn’t sleep all night.

The pain just intensified and intensified. And over the course of a week, I lost about 16 pounds, couldn’t leave the hotel room, doubled over in pain, couldn’t sleep, couldn’t walk, going to the bathroom every f- 10 minutes, throwing up, heaving, all by myself, in my lone hotel room in Costa Rica and just losing weight like crazy.

Finally, after about a week, I was able to muster up the strength to go to the pharmacy where they said most likely it was undercooked horse meat that you ate because that restaurant was known to do that apparently. And they didn’t cook their horse meat all the way. So there you go. So anyway, I went there.

I got the antibiotics, and within a f- two days I was all better. But I wonder sometimes, ’cause, I got it this time, and so I wonder if, I may be susceptible to this condition because those antibiotics wiped out the specific strains of bacteria I needed in order to keep this from happening again.

One in six Americans experience some sort of foodborne illness every year. And the CDC says forty-eight million cases annually, a hundred and twenty-eight thousand hospitalizations. Check this out, three thousand people die from this.

Oh my goodness. So this is why it’s really important to prevent this, for one, and apparently I didn’t have enough stomach acid, ’cause that’s one way to prevent food poisoning, is ha- is having high enough stomach acid, and we lose that as we age. And as we lose that, we don’t create B12, or we don’t create…

actually, we don’t create the intrinsic factor that is able to extract and absorb vitamin B12, so our B12 levels go, which affects a myriad of other things in our body. So having enough stomach acid is very important. And so I need to get back on the the protocol, the year-long protocol for my s- rebuilding my stomach acid because that also helps fight infections and kill pathogens absorb and, Make stomach acid and work with your bile and all of that.

So having enough stomach acid. It’s a great book, Why Stomach Acid Is Good For You. I’d highly recommend you read that one. But there is a really great study going back to 1936 by Mary Van Sant from I forget where she was. Oh, the Mayo Clinic. Yeah. And she studied 3,800 people, and she found back then in 1936 that roughly fifty percent of people by the age of sixty did not produce enough stomach acid in order to properly digest and absorb their food.

So what’s really happening with all of us is that we’re dying of malnutrition. We can’t absorb and assimilate the vitamins and minerals we eat because we don’t have enough stomach acid. So people often ask about what supplements should I take? And, first thing is get enough stomach acid, so that you can absorb these supplements.

So this is a reminder to me to get back on the hydrochloric acid supplements. I don’t want anyone– I don’t want any one of us to be one of those three thousand people that die as a result of this stupid condition, right? So I shared on my Instagram that natural cures work, and they most certainly do. And it’s really important to rely on natural medicine and natural remedies, like I said on my Instagram post, before taking antibiotics because, yes, they work, but at what cost, right?

I’d rather suffer myself for a few days and give my body the strength and the resilience to get through something than, than to take something artificial and weaken my long-term health. That’s definitely not something I want to do. So let’s get into a little bit about what food poisoning is.

So food poisoning is just typically things that you’ve heard of before, like salmonella. There’s something called Campylobacter, which is a part of food poisoning, and you just don’t know which one you have. E. coli, Giardia, these are all types of food-borne illnesses. And these types of things kill people around the world, like in Africa and other low in Africa and other poverty-stricken nations.

This is a big deal. So it’s really important to it’s really important to make sure that we’re on top of this condition. So what experiences did I have? I had sharp stomach pains. Felt like razor blades in my stomach. And I was throwing up, I was having diarrhea, and it was a real struggle to get through a few hours.

I was literally on the ground. I couldn’t put any pressure on my stomach putting a red light therapy device, I have one of those little handheld ones from Bon Charge, which I recommend. I couldn’t even put that on my stomach because the weight of that, it weighs almost nothing, but it, but the weight of it would just be too painful on my stomach.

I was so sensitive. And then I would be hot and cold and shaking and shivering, and just my skin was sensitive, and it felt like I was just being ripped apart, like my guts were being ripped apart. It was just… I feel for anyone dealing with this condition. But there are ways that you can… But there are things that you can do, and I wanna share with you what I tried and what seemed to work the most.

So the first thing I did was activated charcoal. And this is a amazing compound because charcoal has a super porous surface area, and it can bind to a lot of compounds and a lot of toxins and chemicals and poisons that are in the gut. In fact emergency rooms and medicin- emergency rooms uses it for people that come in with alcohol poisoning or having ingested some kind of poison, or for bacterial or viral food poisoning.

So this is also really critical. So bac- so activate- So activated charcoal was my best friend in this scenario and I did the other thing, the silver aloe protocol. Now silver helps to kill bacteria, parasites,

So silver has an antimicrobial capacity. It’s really one of the most incredible home medicines that you could ever have. So I would highly recommend getting some silver and using it on a regular basis. And what I like about combining it with aloe is that the polysaccharides in the silver ions, they bind to the polysac- So what I like about c- so what I like about it when you combine it with aloe vera juice, one ounce to silver, one ounce to aloe vera juice, is that they synergistically combine very well together, and the aloe allows the silver to penetrate parts of the gut that normally it wouldn’t…

It would just pass right through. So the gel of the aloe allows the sil– it works sorta like DMSO. It has a very similar effect where it can penetrate deeper into the gut walls than when you just take silver alone. And so what I recommend is the silver aloe protocol, and that is you take one ounce of silver and one ounce of aloe vera juice three times a day.

And that is really powerful. That helped me so much. The other thing that helped me a lot was drinking ozonated water. Now, ozone is a potent oxidant, and it’s used a lot, in water disinfection. But we’ve done a lot of shows on it, I’ve read a lot of books on it, and you can use ozone in a myriad of different ways.

O3. And what I did was I drank ozonated water three times a day, 16 ounces three times a day. And that was extremely helpful as well. I took it away from food, so I’d take it before bed, right when I woke up, and then right before lunch. And that way I could get the ozonated water hitting my gut as well.

The other thing I wanted to do, but I didn’t, is rectal ozone, and that has really powerful effects on the gut and the colon. And had I been able to do that, that would’ve been really powerful. Having a home ozone machine and generator is one of the most… it’s like a Swiss Army knife. It’s one of the most beneficial things you could have for your family, for you in times of emergency of sicknesses.

There’s like a thousand different ways to use ozone y- in your eyes, in your ears, in your vagina, in your rectum. Y- you could use it anywhere. You can make ozonated eye drops. You can do ear insufflations, nasal insufflations for flus and colds. Bubble the water, rinse with your mouth so you don’t get cavities.

It’s like an amazing tool. You just gotta learn how to use it and pony up and buy it, but what I love about that is that you purchase it once, and you use it forever. All you have to do is refill the oxygen, once every six months. It’s amazing the other thing I did was L.

reuteri yogurt. I don’t know if you guys have written or read– I don’t know if you guys have read the book on that. I forget. I think it’s called Happy Gut or something. But that, that book was really good, and it opened my eyes up to L. reuteri yogurt. And so we made some yogurt with the probiotic strains of that.

And it says here in twenty nineteen, there’s a meta-analysis, and it had a profound effect on diarrhea and shortening the average length of diarrhea. And if you read the book on this, you’ll read all of the ways that this particular strain of bacteria is one of the mo- more powerful ones that you wanna have for longevity, for disease prevention, for cancer prevention, for cardiovascular support.

Who would’ve ever known that a bacteria would do all of that? And the other one that I took, the other bacteria I took was Saccharomyces boulardii, and that one is mo- it’s it’s more of a yeast. And it says here in a twenty twenty double-blind placebo trial, a hundred infants reported recovery in sixty-five hours with this bacteria versus only ninety, it says here it supports gut barrier and micro… It says here it supports gut barrier and microbial interactions, so this is a really good one to have on hand. That I just took as a supplement from the health food store. Something else I took was berberine and goldenseal. That one really helped. There’s s- some studies, there was an ’87 study about diarrhea and that and so it helped 42% of them in 24 hours.

Because the combination of these two things together acts as a natural antibiotic. So if you’re looking for a natural antibiotic, just combine berberine and goldenseal, and you’ll see the studies on that as well. Other thing I took was a lot of coconut water and sea salt, and I did that for the electrolytes ’cause I was losing, I was dehydrated, and I was losing electrolytes.

So there were a few days there where I didn’t eat anything. I just took MitoLife supplements and LifeBlood supplements, and I just had a half of a avocado and a bunch of supplements, and that’s what kinda got me through the day, was the coconut water, the sea salt, the supplements, and just a little avocado and, something very bland.

And then I did cast- a topical castor oil with red light therapy, with the near-infrared lights. That’s those chicken lamps, and so I took I put one of those on a little stand that was, would sit above me. I would lay on the floor, rub my stomach with castor oil, and then put the red li- light on me about, oh, three feet above me, and it was just the perfect height where it just felt really warm and, but not too hot where it’s burning or it’s, starting to make you sweat.

And I felt a lot of comfort from that. That, that seemed to help me quite a bit. And then the final thing I did was PEMF, and when I… My stomach was able to, I was able to put weight on it, I used the Sota magnetic pulser, and that seemed to help a lot too. So I would just lay down on the bed and just use the Sota pulser on it in 15-minute cycles, and that helped a lot.

A lot. So that was really helpful. So I always believe that things happen for a reason, and it was funny because we had just launched the Inner Circle and the next day I was doing some videos, and I couldn’t even do them anymore. I couldn’t even tell anyone about the inner circle and the fact that we’re open, ’cause a lot of people had messaged in and said, “When is it gonna be ready?”

And, I wasn’t even at the computer. I couldn’t do anything. And I was just doubled over, thr- throwing up and just writhing in pain. And I just thought the timing of all of that was so interesting. So but everything happens for a reason, right? And so this is getting in, into this idea of detoxification, detoxify, nourish, and build, which is what I talk about inside the inner circle.

Inside there, we’re gonna be doing group cleanses, and we’re gonna be doing our live sessions again. And, all that will be searchable, and other people will be available if you want to ask questions. And you can even submit audio questions to me, and I’ll submit my audio answers.

And so all of that’s coming back. And so we’re gonna be focusing a lot on detoxification, cleansing out heavy metals, parasites, all of these things from the body, because, a lot of people talk about energy, and a lot of peop– people talk about mitochondrial health, and all that is so important.

But you also have to have– get all the bad stuff out. It’s so important to live in such a way as to where you get rid of all the bad stuff, and you’re not exposed to it, but then you get rid of the residual leftover effects of a lifetime of living in modern society. But then you gotta be on a yearly program, constantly cleansing this stuff out, because there’s a lot of evidence showing that these things are what cause the breakdown of mitochondrial function.

And the mitochondria is the heartbeat. That’s really what allows us to live, is the mitochondria. And if they are not healthy because they’re being exposed to heavy metals like cadmium, mercury, and al- aluminum, things like this, you have parasitic infections that are feeding on those heavy metals.

You have candida that are coming in as a result of that because of the breakdown of tissue. All of these things combined together just start to slow the mitochondria down. And when they slow down, you start producing more hydrogen peroxide. You start producing much less ATP, and much less energy happens as a result.

Then your body needs more energy because it has these toxic overload. It becomes this compounding snowball effect where, you just can’t get on top of your health, and then you start ending up with little symptoms here, chronic condition here. And then you have a, a lifespan of, 78 years old.

And I believe we’re supposed to live at least to 120, at least, I believe. And this is something I really wanna focus on now is moving into my 50s, as I’m 50 years old right now, really increasing This idea of cleansing and detoxification, nourishing and building the body. And so we’re gonna be doing deep dives on this very, very soon inside the inner circle.

So if you guys wanna join that, feel free to do so. But food poisoning, don’t let it happen. Take your hydrochloric acid supplements. Make sure you’re getting enough stomach acid inside your body. Make sure you’re not eating… Make sure you’re eating good, high-quality food. I think what it, did it for me was some eggs.

I really do believe that. About a day before I came down with all the symptoms, I had some eggs, and I think there’s something wrong with them. That’s what my gut tells me. And so we scrambled up some eggs, and I had those for dinner, but they didn’t agree with me. So there you go. So the biggest things that helped me the most are charcoal, having an ozone machine.

That was huge, and I didn’t even get to do rectal ozone because I ran out of the bags. So had I been able to do rectal ozone, drink ozonated water, and take the silver aloe protocol with the charcoal, that’s a winning combo. That’s a powerful combo. So the moral of the story is take your stomach acid, have some silver around.

If you have a SOTA device, a, a silver pulser, you can make your silver with that device as well as do microcurrent therapy. But have silver around and have ozone at your house. Really important. They were very powerful. So I hope that helps you guys. I hope you, I’ll put a link down to some silver I recommend if you guys wanna grab some, and the ozone machine I use if you wanna take a look at that.

And yeah, so I hope some of this helps you. But go to the store, get some activated charcoal, some powder. I just use the powder because I don’t like swallowing pills before bed. But take the powder, have it at home. It’s better for kids, too. They can swallow that easier. But get some silver, make some silver.

Do whatever you have to have some silver, some activated charcoal, and some ozone in your house at all times for emergency purposes. All right, guys, that’s it. Thank you for listening to episode seven ninety-two. If you liked it, let me know. Comment down below. Share this episode with a friend if they have food poisoning or are looking to focus more on detoxification and cleansing in the coming months.

Love you guys, and I’ll talk to you guys on the next episode
