Shocking Ingredient in Plant-Based Foods

The AHA! Team — Wed, 09 Jul 2025 05:05:42 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – Big Agra, mainstream medicine, and the media have all declared war on traditional protein-rich foods. I remember staying at my grandparents’ farm when I was growing up. I’d wake up to the smell of steak and eggs and race down the stairs to be the first at the table. Your grandparents most likely ate this way, too. But today, it’s a different story. Big Agra, mainstream medicine, and the media have all declared war on traditional protein-rich foods. As a result, you’ve been forced onto a radical, unhealthy, inflammatory, disease-producing diet without your consent. Then in 2016, the war on traditional foods took a drastic new turn. The vegan lifestyle was once again all the rage. Demand for plant-based meat and egg products soared with foods like the Impossible Burger, Beyond Burger, and Quorn “chicken” nuggets. These fake foods began to appear on supermarket shelves and restaurant menus everywhere. Big Agra wanted you to believe these “meat alternatives” were healthier than what nature provides. But they’re not. Clever marketing campaigns wanted you to believe that these meat mockeries taste just like the real thing. But they don’t. And the public knows it. Demand for these fake foods has plummeted. So what are the manufacturers of these knockoff products doing now? They’re adding animal fat back into them to get them to taste more like the real thing! I’ve been warning my patients to avoid meat alternatives for almost a decade. By definition, plant-based “egg and meat products” are processed, unnatural fake foods. They’re made from more than 50 ingredients that are decidedly unrelated to the animals they mimic. Most plant-based products also contain soy and seitan, which gives them their “authentic” texture. Despite the media and marketing hype around soy being a source of good health, the GMO frankenfood is one of the worst plant foods you can possibly consume. Soy is loaded with estrogen mimickers that cause erectile dysfunction, “man boobs,” loss of bone and muscle mass, and at least half a dozen different types of cancer. Soy also impairs insulin secretion and might actually cause diabetes. And new studies reveal that it may even be connected to dementia and mental illness.1,2 Meanwhile, seitan – also known as “wheat meat” – is a starchy, grain-based concoction made from gluten and is highly processed. And as you know, I’ve been recommending that you avoid grain-based foods for more than 30 years. If you followed a grain-based diet like the USDA recommends you’d be diseased, overweight, and prematurely old in no time at all. Unhealthy Ingredients Hiding in These Fake Foods These products, despite clever marketing, are anything but good for you. Soy and seitan, while horrible for your health, are at least real foods. The other ingredients hiding in your veggie burger are anything but… To get these ultra-processed meat alternatives to look and taste like real meat means they have a whole lot of chemical additives. Here’s a small example of what’s hiding in your plant “burger:” Tertiary butylhydroquinone. This synthetic preservative is linked to cancer, vision loss, liver enlargement, and convulsions in lab animals. Research suggests that in humans it damages the immune system, leaving you vulnerable to disease.3 Propylene glycol. This water-absorbing synthetic substance is often used in the cosmetic industry. But it’s also an ingredient in e-cigarettes and antifreeze. Magnesium carbonate. Used as a food additive to prevent caking and retain color, magnesium carbonate is also used in flooring, fireproofing, and fire-extinguishing compounds. Too much causes a laxative effect. Makers of meat alternatives point to studies that declare these compounds are safe. But here’s what they fail to mention… Independent research has discovered the “studies” have been funded or commissioned by the very same companies that manufacture these fake foods. Of course, you’ll never hear from the FDA or the mainstream media that meat alternatives are an unhealthy choice. They’re still pushing the big lie that cholesterol is bad for your heart and your health. As a regular reader, you know I consider the war on cholesterol one of the greatest health food cons of all time. Despite misinformation repeated endlessly by mainstream doctors, the media, and Big Agra, trying to remove animal fats and cholesterol from your diet is a bad idea. A meat-based diet is what made us the humans we are today. It’s grains, carbohydrates, and processed foods that cause excessive weight gain, inflammation, and chronic disease – not dietary fat. Bring Back Real Beef I consider grass-fed meat to be perhaps the healthiest food you can eat. Compared to grain-fed animals, products from grass-fed animals have 10 times more omega-3 fats, more vitamins B, E, D, and K2, more CoQ10 and zinc, and more antioxidants like glutathione and superoxide dismutase (SOD).4 But don’t be fooled by Big Food fakes. To make sure you’re getting the real deal, here’s what to look for: 1. Search For These Keywords When Shopping. Next time you’re shopping, keep an eye out for key terms that show your food isn’t coming from Big Agra farm. “Grass-fed and grass-finished” ensures animals ate a natural diet their whole lives and were never “fattened up” with grain. “Organic” signifies avoidance of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. “Biodynamic” farming goes even further, treating farms as closed, self-nourishing systems. 2. Order Your Food Online. For a list of farms that only raise grass-fed and finished meat, check out these two websites: American Grassfed, Eat Wild, and A Greener World. To order online, I suggest these sites: ✓ US Wellness Meats. I know the owner John Woods and I trust his products. ✓ Polyface Farms. The food from my friend Joel Salatin’s farm isn’t just healthier, it tastes a heck of a lot better. ✓ Okeechobee Farms. This farm is not too far from my clinic. They make and deliver the homemade bone broth I offer all my patients. 3. Look for third-party certification. Groups like AGA, A Greener World, or the Global Animal Partnership offer certification labels you can check to verify it is real grass-fed beef.

Burn Fat While You Sleep

The AHA! Team — Fri, 13 Jun 2025 05:21:47 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – If you’re having trouble sleeping, chances are you’re also living with a broken metabolism. But repairing your ability to sleep soundly through the night can help you melt away unwanted pounds – without lifting a finger. In a study published in the Journal of Lipid Research, researchers from Penn State University linked sleep-wake cycles to your native ability to burn fat while you rest. Fifteen participants – all healthy men in their 20s – started the study by sleeping for 10 hours a night in their own homes. Then they spent 10 nights at Penn State’s clinical research center. While there, they were fed carb-heavy meals – and slept no more than five hours for four consecutive nights. During this stage, the participants reported feeling sluggish and less satisfied with the meals they ate. Unsurprisingly, they also gained weight. The researchers took blood samples from the participants and found that their insulin levels rose as sleep restrictions worsened. But when the participants were able to return to a 10-hour sleep schedule, they were able to return to their normal body weight.1 This study highlights just how connected your sleep schedule is to your fat-burning potential. But the effects of a poor night’s sleep go beyond just physiological. Putting off sleep can also encourage behaviors that lead to further weight gain. Another study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that when people get less sleep, they’re more likely to take a trip to the kitchen for a late-night snack. When this happens, your body releases cortisol – a stress hormone that encourages your body to conserve as much energy as it can. In other words, instead of burning fat the way it should – you’re just sitting on unused energy. This is the perfect storm for unwanted weight gain.2 If you’re experiencing random hunger episodes in the middle of the night, I don’t blame you… Because the modern world has set us all up for failure. How The Modern World Keeps You Awake The idea of a midnight snack is only something that could happen in modern times. For the vast majority of human history, eating when the sun went down was almost unheard of. Picture yourself living among our hunter-gatherer ancestors. There are no streetlights or sprawling metropolises brightening the night sky. There are no screens demanding constant attention. And the campfire you share with your community does little more than light up your immediate surroundings. In those times, if you wanted to eat, you had to either track down a wild animal yourself or find something edible close to your settlement. During the blackened hours of the night, this is almost impossible. That’s why hunting, gathering, and every other step in food preparation were done during the day – when you could see your surroundings and what you were doing. Of course, our ancestors were not only preparing food, they were trying to avoid becoming food for something else. In short, humans evolved to eat during the day. And in today’s world of near-constant illumination, we are fighting against our own biology. Unwanted weight gain is just one of many consequences. Sleep problems are also getting worse. According to the National Institutes of Health, between 50 and 70 million Americans have sleep disorders. That’s one out of every three adults.3 Fortunately, you can begin to solve both problems by turning to nature. Here are some tips I share with my patients to help them repair their native metabolism – so they can burn fat while they sleep. 3 Ways To Burn Fat While You Sleep 1. Limit artificial light. The screens you stare at all day – your smartphone, your computer, your television, and almost every other electronic device emits blue light. Studies show this type of light interferes with your body’s natural ability to produce melatonin – the “shut-eye” chemical that helps you sleep.Eliminating screens from your life entirely is almost impossible. But there are ways to adapt so that you can keep your exposure to a healthy minimum.Start by keeping your bedroom as dark as possible during the night. Darkness encourages melatonin production. Don’t turn on the TV past a certain time. If you enjoy reading before bedtime, opt for a traditional book instead of a tablet. If you can’t get your bedroom completely dark, try a sleep mask. 2. Use high-quality melatonin supplements. Melatonin does more than make you sleepy. Recently, it’s been discovered that “the sleepy chemical” acts as a mitochondrial decoupler. This means that the melatonin being absorbed into your system has a protective effect on the “batteries” in your body’s cells, and encourages them to be more active.It helps your body remove damaged mitochondria, as well as help transport protons across the inner membranes in your cells…which burns calories.4 Melatonin supplements can be found in almost any drug store or convenience store, but not all of them will absorb into your system properly. That’s why I recommend shopping for sprays, drops, or sublingual tablets. They’re easier to absorb and get to work faster. 3. Try intermittent fasting. Intermittent fasting doesn’t mean starving yourself. It means reorienting your body to process food the way human beings evolved to.Our hunter-gatherer ancestors often fasted out of necessity, routinely fluctuating between feasting and famine depending on how successful a hunt was – or the resources they had access to. Fasting is a primal tradition – and it helped our ancestors develop the fat-burning potential they needed to remain fit.It encourages your body to process food during the waking hours of the day and allows you to rest at night when you’re supposed to. I recommend starting with a simple, safe fasting schedule: Start your day with a 10 a.m. breakfast Take lunch in the afternoon as you normally would Finish your dinner by 6 p.m. Eat no additional food from 6 p.m. until 10 a.m. the following morning To Your Good Health, Al Sears, MD, CNS References: Ness K, et al. “Four nights of sleep restriction suppress the postprandial lipemic response and decrease satiety.” J of Lipid Res. 2019;60(11):1935-1945.

A “Game-Changer” For Your Heart

The AHA! Team — Wed, 21 May 2025 05:30:38 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – Heart disease continues to be the biggest killer in America for one simple reason: The health advice we’re told to follow is just plain wrong. Giving up meat and fat, jogging, and taking a handful of medications will not cure your heart disease. But there is a cutting-edge, FDA-approved natural therapy that I call a game-changer for your heart… I’m talking about enhanced external counter pulsation, or EECP. Most cardiologists continue to ignore this treatment because it doesn’t fit the traditional image of what they do. They consider heart disease a “plumbing” problem. And the solution is to simply fix the blockages. But if that were true, why do heart attacks happen after these blockages have been cleared or bypassed? The real causes of heart disease are damaged blood vessels that inhibit blood flow and inflammation. That’s where this life-saving therapy comes in. Multiple studies reveal that EECP is the safest and most effective reliever of angina chest pain available. It has been shown to have huge benefits for patients with coronary artery disease and heart failure. It increases blood flow to the heart, strengthens circulation, and provides a proven way to treat heart disease with fewer drugs and without bypass surgeries, angioplasty procedures, or stents. And in many cases, it works better than the Big Pharma meds and risky, expensive surgeries that cardiologists continue to push. Although EECP was invented in the U.S. in the 1950s, it was left undeveloped as cardiology went down the more lucrative path of drugs and invasive surgeries. Instead, doctors overseas took up the challenge. They spent 20 years developing counter pulsation as a non-surgical way to treat coronary heart disease, by getting the timing of these devices just right. Counter pulsation means pumping blood during the heart’s rest phase. When the heart is at rest, the cuffs inflate. When the heart pumps, the cuffs deflate. The cuffs compress the blood vessels in your lower limbs and push blood toward the heart. Each wave of increased blood flow is timed to arrive at your heart the moment the organ relaxes. When your heart pumps again, pressure is released. This essentially acts as a passive form of vigorous exercise, boosting blood flow, and pushing oxygen-rich blood throughout your body more strongly than normal. More than 100 studies along with multiple clinical trials prove the effectiveness of EECP. In one large study, researchers followed more than 5,000 patients worldwide. They discovered that 83% of patients had vastly improved blood flow after EECP and 73% reported a significant reduction in the severity of angina symptoms.1 Yet in America, almost all coronary artery disease patients are prescribed Big Pharma meds instead. Regrow Brand-New Blood Vessels Perhaps the most remarkable benefit of EECP is its ability to strengthen and repair damaged blood vessels and regrow new ones, creating new pathways in and around the heart – without any surgical grafting. That is why EECP is hailed as a “natural bypass.”2 Blocked Coronary Arteries You see, when coronary arteries become blocked with plaque, obstructing blood flow, it causes chest pain and possibly a heart attack. Some people can naturally form new blood vessels that serve to bypass these obstructions. Unfortunately, not everyone can. And despite the conventional opinion that nothing can be done, EECP has worked wonders for these patients. Study involving 1,400 patients In a study involving 1,400 patients with refractory angina, 75% had half as many angina attacks after EECP. And in a three-year follow-up, 16% had no angina at all.3 Other studies show that EECP triggers the production of an important hormone called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). This allows blood to bypass the blocked arteries by creating new ones.4 The effects of EECP last about five years.5 If you are interested in trying EECP to increase blood flow and protect your heart, please call the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine at 561-784-7852. 2 More Ways To Protect Your Arteries EECP is a miracle cure for unclogging arteries. But if you can’t get to my clinic, there are nutrients you can supplement with at home. Here are a couple to try today: 1. Use the B vitamin that’s proven to protect your heart. You probably know vitamin B9 better than folate or folic acid. Folate is the nutrient found in food, while folic acid is the supplement form.Folic acid lowers levels of toxic substances that irritate the heart’s lining. This relaxes your blood vessels and keeps them flexible. Fewer irritations equate to normalized pulse pressure and a reduction in stroke and heart attack. Simply put… When folate is high your risk of heart attack drops by up to 50%.6 Natural sources of folate are dark green vegetables as well as beef, lamb, chicken liver, and eggs. But your body only absorbs half the folate you get from food. I recommend supplementing with 800 mcg a day. 2. Try heart-saving vitamin K2. Vitamin K2 scrubs your arteries clear of the plaque that clogs blood vessels. In a landmark, Dutch trial researchers followed 4,800 people. Results revealed that high levels of vitamin K2 lowered the risk of coronary artery disease by 57%. It lowered calcium buildup in the arteries by 52%. And it slashed the risk of death from any cause by 26%.7 You can get vitamin K2 directly from foods. Our ancestors got plenty from eating organ meats like liver. Other rich sources are meat, full-fat milk, cottage cheese, butter, and cheese. But these foods MUST come from grass-fed animals.You can also supplement. Look for vitamin K2 in the form of “menaquinone-7.” It’s much more bioactive than other forms. Take 45 to 90 mcg a day with a meal to improve absorption.

Ingredient In Coffee Improves Your Memory (It’s NOT Caffeine)

The AHA! Team — Fri, 02 May 2025 05:34:35 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – If you think the caffeine in your morning cup o’ joe is solely responsible for its coveted brain-boosting benefits, you’re not alone. After all, caffeine is a key reason why 81% of Americans get their day going by drinking at least two cups of coffee every day.1 And studies prove this naturally occurring herbal stimulant can improve both short-term and long-term memory2,3 increase alertness and reduce fatigue,4 and enhance cognition.5 But coffee has a special helper that most people don’t know about. I’m talking about a little-known compound called trigonelline, a unique form of vitamin B3 (niacin). Trigonelline, which is also found in fenugreek seeds, Japanese radishes, and hemp seeds, has been shown to:6 Increase spatial learning and memory Support nervous system development Enhance mitochondrial function and Increase key neurotransmitters in the hippocampus of the brain But its key brain benefit is that it suppresses neuroinflammation. As a regular reader, you know how dangerous inflammation is, and how it’s often a key factor in chronic diseases, especially in the brain. You see, breakthrough research confirms that amyloid plaques – the misfolded proteins that are a key symptom of Alzheimer’s disease – are caused by a breakdown of the immune system, triggered by widespread inflamm-aging. Amyloid plaques prevent neurons from working properly. When your brain is inflamed and your immune system can no longer clear away these rogue proteins, they cluster together and gum up the signaling networks between your neurons. Eventually, it leads to memory loss and confusion. At the same time, inflammation squeezes the blood vessels in your brain, restricting oxygen supply, causing cell damage, loss of brain tissue, and cell death. A new study, aimed at investigating the therapeutic potential of trigonelline, revealed it may effectively treat Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, epilepsy, and depression7 by preventing oxidative stress.8 Oxidative stress can feel like brain fog, chronic fatigue, or a headache. It can also result in memory loss, infections, and serve as a catalyst for inflammatory diseases.9 Preventing oxidative stress helps control your body’s inflammatory response. The implications of these studies for trigonelline as a neuroenhancer, and for coffee lovers are huge. Coffee lovers can rejoice in knowing there is truly something special about their cup of joe other caffeinated beverages can’t match. Get The Most Out Of Your Cup Of Coffee Drinking a cup or two of coffee is the best way to increase trigonelline levels. Here’s what I recommend: Choose Arabica coffee. While both Arabica and robusta coffee beans contain this brain-saving enzyme, concentrations are twice as high in Arabica. Look for certified organic beans. Not only are they higher in antioxidants, they don’t use any synthetic chemicals or fertilizers. I also suggest looking for “Fairtrade” on the label. This protects traditional small coffee farmers. Drink it fresh. Grind your coffee at the time you wish to drink it. This maximizes the flavor and prevents oxidation. Coffee’s healing properties are best when brewed fresh. Drink it black. The best benefits of coffee are delivered in its purest state. Adding dairy products and sweeteners may alter the taste, but it will also diminish the rewards. If you’re not a fan of coffee, you can supplement with fenugreek capsules. I suggest taking 500 mg a day.

The Most Important Medical Test You Can Have

The AHA! Team — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 05:18:40 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – I get a lot of mail from readers like you who tell me they’re scheduled to see their doctor for an annual checkup. And they want to know… What is the number-one anti-aging test they should ask their physician to order? It’s an important question. But sadly, most conventionally trained doctors will NEVER order the test I recommend… You see, with my patients, I want to know what’s going on at the cellular level. And that’s why I think it’s essential to have a test that measures your telomeres. Lengthening your telomeres is one of the most important steps you can take to protect yourself from the diseases we commonly associate with aging. Diseases like Alzheimer’s… heart disease… diabetes… obesity… and cancer. The minute I learned about telomeres — and activating the telomerase enzyme that maintains telomere length — I knew it would change lives. And it has. By helping my patients keep their telomeres long, they’ve seen incredible results. They’ve experienced benefits like having sharper memory, more energy, perfect blood sugar, and healthy hearts. In other words, they’ve extended their health span, so they’re living younger – longer. Yet, the medical establishment continues to look the other way. Instead of acknowledging this discovery, they’re stuck on turning telomere technology into another synthetic drug for Big Pharma. Why? Because that’s where the big money is. And that’s their primary goal…to profit from your health challenges. The First REAL Anti-Aging Solution Telomeres are the little caps on the end of each strand of your DNA that control how your cells age. When you are young, your telomeres are long. But every time a cell divides, the telomeres get shorter. Over time, your telomeres get so short they can’t protect your DNA as effectively. When a cell divides, new cells are defective. You begin to develop the signs and diseases of old age. And you dramatically increase your risk of serious diseases. But regrowing telomeres has the opposite effect. Supporting your telomeres is the first REAL solution to aging itself. In fact: People with the longest telomeres have a 54% lower risk of heart disease1 Longer telomeres protect the brain from aging and dementia2 People with longer telomeres are happier and have a better outlook on life3 Those with longer telomeres have an immune age that’s 20 years younger4 Increasing telomere length helps fight against almost all diseases of aging5 Lengthening telomeres increases lifespan by an average of five years6 I believe telomeres are the biggest medical breakthrough in my lifetime. As a pioneer in telomere science, I’ve been helping my patients protect and lengthen their telomeres for decades. I do this by helping them activate telomerase naturally. When you turn telomerase on, your telomeres gradually get longer. Your body starts creating younger cells. And by activating telomerase, you can improve and support almost every organ in your body. You can recharge your sexual desire, breathe easier, look younger and feel younger. In other words, you can reverse the aging process – and eliminate your risk for the so-called diseases of aging. I think this topic is so important I used it to wrap up my Palm Beach Anti-Aging Summit at the beautiful and historic Mar-a-Lago estate. Today, I want to share that talk with you. To watch, click this link. If you’re interested in having your telomeres tested – so you can start on the path to REAL anti-aging – call my clinic at 561-784-7852. My friendly staff will be happy to answer your questions and set you up with the most important medical test you can have. 3 Simple Steps To Make Your Telomeres Biologically Younger In the meantime, there are steps you can take right now to make your telomeres biologically younger. Here’s what I tell my patients… Stop eating processed foods. A new study, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, found that three or more servings of “ultra-processed foods” doubled your risk of shortened telomeres.Typical processed foods include a vast array of convenience items, such as deli meats; instant soups and noodles; packaged bread; snack items; soda and energy drinks; sweetened yogurt; and breakfast cereals — even those marked “healthy.” Boost vitamin C intake. Studies confirm that raising the level of vitamin C in the cells slows down the shortening of telomeres by up to 62%.7,8 In another study, vitamin C slowed telomere shortening while increasing cellular lifespan.9But be forewarned. You’d be lucky to absorb more than 500 mg of standard vitamin C supplements in a single day. That’s why I recommend a liposomal-encapsulated ascorbic acid. Wrapping vitamin C in a tiny, fatty bubble more than doubles its absorption.10 This delivery method enables you to take 5,000 to 8,000 mg of vitamin C every day. Lower your homocysteine. This amino acid triples the speed at which your telomeres shorten. Here’s what I use with my patients (amounts are daily) to lower homocysteine: Vitamin B12 – 500 mcg Folic acid – 800 mcg Vitamin B6 – 25 mg Riboflavin (B2) – 25 mg TMG (Trimethylglycine) – 500 mg To Your Good Health, Al Sears, MD, CNS References: Haycock P, et al. “Leucocyte telomere length and risk of cardiovascular disease: systematic review and meta-analysis.” BMJ. 2014;349:g4227.

Al Sears, MD, CNS – Diabetes used to be straightforward. First, there was the childhood version that meant you needed to inject insulin. Then there was the insulin-resistant adult-onset version. Today, there are at least 6 different diabetes subsets. That’s staggering. They include: Type 1. This is an autoimmune disease that occurs when the pancreas stops producing insulin. Type 2. Adult-onset diabetes occurs when the body can’t use insulin properly, Type 3c. This kind is typically caused by chronic inflammation of the pancreas. Type 4 diabetes. This type affects thin, elderly individuals with abnormally high levels of immune system T regulatory cells in their fat. Gestational diabetes. The number of cases of diabetes in pregnant women has almost doubled over the last 30 years. Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA). This form is a cross between types 1 and 2. Compelling research reveals that all types of diabetes are the same disease. The same underlying problem drives all 6 types. The real root is the overproduction of insulin, triggered by an unnatural diet. You see, the biggest culprit behind this devastating global epidemic is the massive increase in our consumption of one particular Big Agra crop… I’m talking about modern wheat. Although diabetes has been around for a long time — the Egyptian physician Hesy-Ra mentioned it in 1552 BC — it was mostly confined to the privileged in society. For the common folk who farmed or hunted for their food, diabetes was extremely rare. You don’t get diabetes from eating too much wild boar, rabbit, or venison. But fast forward 50-plus years. What changed? Big Agra and the explosion in wheat consumption. Wheat consumption in America has increased by a staggering 26 pounds since the 1970s to about 133 pounds a year1 — the equivalent of around 200 loaves. Globally, wheat is Big Agra’s most-planted cash crop. Around 215 million hectares — an area the size of Greenland — of wheat are grown and harvested every year. This generates more than $50 billion a year for Big Agra.2 And the wheat that’s been packed into our food supply over the past five decades — the period in which prediabetes and diabetes have soared 1,750% — is not the wheat of your grandparents knew. The early wheat grown by the first farmers contained 14 chromosomes, while today’s wheat has 42. This modern Frankenstein crop has been so genetically altered, it’s biochemically light years from the wheat our grandmothers used. Humans have never before consumed these new, high-yield gluten structures. And your body wasn’t designed to eat them… Grains sabotage your pancreas with proteins called lectins, which bind themselves to insulin receptors. Your cells interpret this as a signal to store fat, driving your body constantly toward insulin resistance and diabetes. At the Sears Institute, I help patients reverse diabetes naturally every day using my diabetes protocol. The first, most important step, is eating the right diet. Try The Stem Cell Diabetes Cure We’re also having great success helping patients reverse diabetes using stem cell therapy. This safe treatment restores your body’s natural ability to produce and use insulin. You know that stem cells are your body’s supply of healthy “replacement cells.” Your pancreas contains its own supply of these miracle cells. These pancreatic stem cells can be transformed into insulin-releasing beta cells that get destroyed by diabetes. These new beta cells can sense blood sugar levels and react as needed to restore insulin production. Studies prove this new stem cell therapy can reverse diabetes… In a study published in the journal Stem Cell Investigation, researchers cured diabetes in 83% of people using the patient’s own bone marrow stem cells. The patients that also had diabetic complications showed improvement or stabilization and most patients reported improved energy and stamina. No patients had any significant adverse effects.3 Researchers at Swiss Medica Clinic were able to eliminate or reduce the need for insulin by 80% or more in type 2 diabetics over a six-month period using bone marrow stem cells. Boost Stem Cells Easily At Home You can also optimize your body’s stem cell production at home. Here’s what I suggest: First, exercise vigorously 4 to 6 days per week. A thorough review of the effect of high-intensity exertion on stem cells was done by a group of researchers in Italy. After pouring over dozens of peer-reviewed studies, they concluded vigorous exercise can dramatically increase the number of adult stem cells your body generates on its own.4 Second, make sure you get eight hours of uninterrupted sleep per night. A Swiss study from the Center for Integrative Genomics revealed how a disruption of normal sleep rhythms could interfere with stem cell function.5 Published in the leading journal Cell Stem Cell, the researchers realized that your stem cells need beauty sleep to survive. And finally, try fasting two days at a time every six months. A landmark study gave us the first natural intervention triggering stem cell-based regeneration of an organ or system. This research shows that this kind of fasting causes stem cells to awake from their normal dormant state and start regenerating. This destroyed damaged and older cells and caused new cells to be born.

The Big Cardio Lie Continues…

The AHA! Team — Mon, 24 Mar 2025 05:32:07 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – The Big Cardio Lie Continues… For 10 years, long-distance runner Ryan Hall held the U.S. record in the half marathon. He was the first person to break the one-hour barrier in that race. And his time in the Boston Marathon remains the fastest for any American athlete. Ryan trained hard. And he trained often. Until he was forced to retire at the age of 33 because his strength was sapped and his fatigue extreme. By the end of his career, the 5’10” former Olympian weighed a paltry 127 pounds. He admits his grinding workouts left him “weak and underdeveloped.” Today, he’s gained almost 40 pounds of pure muscle — and says he couldn’t be happier. His new workout routine includes intense drills with short rest periods between sets. More on that in a moment… Most of the running world was shocked when Hall retired at such an early age. But I wasn’t at all surprised when I heard. You see, along with being an anti-aging doctor, I’m a certified personal trainer. I spent years working with athletes. And I saw what long-distance running and endurance training did to their bodies. This type of cardio exercise causes your muscles to simply waste away. “Cardio” is short for cardiovascular endurance training. It’s the idea that you have to raise your heart rate for a long duration. It’s when you spend 45 minutes on a treadmill, run for miles a day, or take an hour-long aerobics class. This kind of exercise is just not natural. Our ancestors didn’t go jogging. They had short bursts of action, followed by longer periods of rest. And it’s how they stayed strong and healthy with powerful muscles. Unlike the stressed-out, weak muscles of long-distance runners like Ryan Hall. Endurance exercise quickly burns through carbs and fat. This forces your body to break down muscle to help meet energy needs. It also uses your smaller, more oxygen-efficient muscle fibers and ignores your larger, more powerful muscle fibers that actually trigger muscle-building. One study showed that the muscles of marathon runners actually shrink. When the muscle biopsies of marathon runners were analyzed, researchers found their muscle fiber size had decreased and atrophied.1 The way to build strong muscles that keep you healthy is to shorten the duration of your exertion but increase the challenge. That’s the philosophy behind my PACE principle. PACE stands for Progressively Accelerating Cardiopulmonary Exertion, and the concept is pretty simple: short, progressively accelerated bursts of intense exercise followed by rest. And the research proves it works… One study followed women over the age of 80. Three times a week they did short but intense exercise routines similar to PACE. After just 36 sessions they increased their lower-body muscle mass by 26% and their leg muscle power by 31%.2 There are a lot of ways to do PACE, but for building strength, your best bet is to do resistance training exercises. But you don’t need to use weights or join a gym. Your body is the only equipment you need. I’m talking about calisthenics, which use the resistance of your own body weight to make you stronger (they’ll help you burn extra fat, too). And you’ll see and feel results almost immediately. In one study, 21 frail, elderly subjects took part in resistance training. After just 11 weeks, their muscle fiber increased by up to 60%.3 But another study really made me sit up and take notice… In this study, researchers took muscle samples from both young and older adults. The seniors were 59% weaker at the start of the study than the young people. The older group did resistance calisthenics three times a week. After six weeks, the older group improved their muscle strength by about 50%. But there was an even more remarkable side effect. Their muscle tissue was rejuvenated. In fact, most of the genes that express aging were reversed back to younger levels!4 Grow Your Muscles While Reversing Aging I’ve helped hundreds of people increase muscle mass with my PACE principle. To get the biggest impact in the shortest amount of time, I recommend starting with one of the largest muscles in your body. Those are the quadriceps on the front of your thighs. NOTE: Anyone can do PACE. You don’t have to be in great shape to start. That’s the beauty of this program. All you need to remember is that no matter where you start, you just need to keep increasing the challenge. And to rest and recover fully between each period of exertion. Here’s one of my favorite quad-builders: Jump Squats Start with your body crouched, feet together, arms extended down, head straight and level. From this position, straighten your legs and jump upward as high as you can into the air. Once you have landed, quickly return to your original starting position, taking care not to lose your balance throughout the exercise. Repeat. It will take you a few sessions to build up your stamina. Start slowly. If you’re a beginner or have trouble with your knees, you can take out the jump and just push yourself up on your toes. Take plenty of time to build up your strength, endurance and balance gradually. Rest and recover between sets. At first, you’ll have to take longer breaks, but they’ll get shorter as you rebuild your natural strength.

Protect Yourself From “Poison Pushers”

The AHA! Team — Fri, 07 Mar 2025 06:12:58 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – Our modern food supply is turning healthy people into diabetics. And people already battling diabetes are now facing cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s. While the connection that links these chronic diseases is often ignored by the media and medical journals, the carefully crafted narrative that tricks the public into eating these poison foods is rooted in junk science. Let me explain… The big, multinational companies that produce the majority of our food are puppet masters. And they’re pulling the strings of the research institutions and their “scientific studies” that frame the medical advice you receive from trusted national organizations. The companies who produce these fake foods have billions of dollars at their disposal. They’re using this money to literally take over our food supply. You’ll find evidence simply by looking for corporate sponsors. The Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics is sponsored by corporations like PepsiCo, Danone, and the Campbell Company.1 And the American Diabetes Association is backed by pharmaceutical behemoths Merck and AstraZeneca.2 Business Insider reported that only 10 companies control almost every large food and beverage brand in the entire world. This includes names you’ll be familiar with — Kellogg’s, Coca-Cola, Nestle, and General Mills.3 Lobbying to influence our food choices is one thing. But actively manipulating scientific studies is even worse. Often, these large corporations will fund nutritional research — leaving us with biased outcomes and cherry-picked results. Kellogg’s Australia funded one such study. They were looking at whether whole grain cereal could help people with type 2 diabetes manage their condition. Of course, they proudly concluded that whole grains were an “important” part of a diabetic’s diet.4 It wasn’t long before this study came under fire by a number of respected health experts. They accused Kellogg’s of practicing “junk science.”5,6 This assertion that “grains are important for diabetics” is one of the most reckless and dangerous claims I see today. Let’s take a closer look at how a high carbohydrate diet affects your type 2 diabetes. In the past 60 years, our modern diet has become more starch-loaded than at any other time in human history.7 Our Standard American Diet (SAD) is filled with processed foods containing an unnaturally high amount of grains. This is made even worse by cheap and unhealthy seed oils. Refined sugars are added at every opportunity. Even the red meat you buy at the grocery store is from animals that have been grain-fed. And milk, cheese, and butter come from grain-fed cows. A nationwide analysis of U.S. grocery stores revealed that more than 60% of the calories we buy come in the form of highly processed foods.8 Our levels of disease have kept pace with this increase in grain and processed food consumption. If you look back to 1957, you’d find that only about 1% of the U.S. population had high blood sugar.9 It was around this time the American Heart Association famously – and falsely – linked dietary fat to heart disease. The result? Millions of Americans began to remove fat from their diet and replace it with low fat/high-carbohydrate items. Fast forward to the decades between 1980 and 2016. The number of people suffering from high blood sugar rocketed from around 6 million to 111 million people. That’s a 1,750% increase in just 35 years! It gets worse. By the year 2030, the World Health Organization estimates that 40% of the U.S. population — 144 million people — will be diabetic or prediabetic.10 The American Diabetes Association still encourage 25% of a diabetic’s food plate to be filled with grains and starches. And they list whole grains as a superfood on their website.11 The result of all this bad messaging is a widespread pandemic that was raging out of control long before our most recent pandemic hit the news cycle. People are dealing with uncontrollable weight gain, fatigue, high blood sugar, and organ malfunction. This has resulted in a constellation of chronic diseases that threaten every man, woman, and child on our planet. It’s insulin resistance on a global scale. At the Sears Institute, I help my patients beat diabetes and insulin resistance using intermittent fasting. It helps improve glucose regulation… increases stress resistance… and suppresses inflammation. It also helps cells to activate an important process called autophagy. This is where the body cleans house and disposes of old or damaged cells. One study of 16 healthy people found “alternate-day fasting” for 22 days helped them lose 2.5% of their initial weight and 4% of their fat mass. This came with a 57% decrease in insulin levels.12 To see the positive effects of this way of eating, we just need to look to the island inhabitants of Okinawa in Japan. This population traditionally eats on an intermittent fasting schedule and has low rates of obesity and type 2 diabetes. They also live extremely long lifespans — many more exceeding 100 years of age. Lower Insulin Resistance with Intermittent Fasting If you’d like to start using intermittent fasting to control your type 2 diabetes, start with a form known as time-restricted eating. It calls for an 8-hour eating window each day, followed by a 16-hour fast. Here’s how it works: Start your day with a 10 a.m. breakfast Lunch at your regular time Finish your dinner by 6 p.m. Your body gets no additional food from 6 p.m. until 10 a.m. the next day When your body gets used to the 16-hour fast, you can move up to the 24-hour mark. You can practice one-day fasts as often as every two weeks.

Stop Disease-Causing Inflammation in One Hour!

The AHA! Team — Wed, 19 Feb 2025 06:21:18 +0000

Al Sears, MD, CNS – There is an invisible cause of disease-causing inflammation most people never think about… And it affects almost every patient I see at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging. Let me tell you about one of them. By the time he came to see me, my patient was feeling extreme fatigue. He couldn’t focus at work. He had no appetite and was suffering from stomach upset. He described an overall sense of weakness and exhaustion. He’d already seen a doctor who sent him for standard blood work. But the results didn’t reveal anything out of the ordinary. His second doctor told him he had high blood pressure and prescribed one of Big Pharma’s beta blockers. But he didn’t feel any better… I told him that we were going to stop the medication and test for a suspicion I had. So I measured his heavy metals and found that his cadmium was 6 times the upper limit of normal. None of his previous physicians thought of testing for this. But I don’t blame them. It’s not something you typically learn in medical school.1 Another thing most traditionally trained doctors don’t know is that even so-called “acceptable” amounts of heavy metals trigger an inflammatory response. According to a 2022 study published in the European Journal of Inflammation, heavy metal toxins – including cadmium, lead, and mercury – have directly and indirectly been linked to an increased risk of: 2,3 Neurodegenerative diseases Heart disease Type 2 diabetes Autoimmune disorders Multiple sclerosis Kidney issues Osteoporosis Cancer And despite what the EPA tells us, there are no safe levels of heavy metal exposure. You see, exposure to heavy metals activates immune cells and stimulates the release of pro-inflammatory molecules, such as cytokines and chemokines. In turn, this leads to the development of oxidative stress. As blood levels of lead and other metals increase, this oxidative stress results in apoptosis – or cell death.4,5 My Patient Is Not an Isolated Case Unfortunately, heavy metal poisoning sneaks up on you over time, so symptoms are often overlooked or chalked up to other causes. I don’t know how my patient got so much cadmium (he isn’t a smoker), but it’s not hard to guess. Common sources are things you encounter every day… burning waste, cigarette smoke, car exhaust, coffee, some processed and refined foods like hydrogenated oils – even shellfish and tap water. My patient is not an isolated case. I’ve treated hundreds of patients for heavy metal toxicity. Chances are you have some level of exposure to heavy metals. You can have some level of toxicity from: Eating foods that contain metals – especially predatory fish, wheat cereals, certain root vegetables Inhaling it through the air Drinking water from tainted supply systems Taking medications or supplements containing high amounts of metallic elements Dental work that used “silver” amalgams Smoking But the biggest contamination comes from manufacturing. These poisons are used in producing things like pesticides, glass, wood preservatives, fertilizers, paint, batteries, plumbing, hobby paints, and ink. Personal care products are also a known source.6 Protect Yourself from Heavy Metal-Associated Inflammation with IV Chelation I recommended that my patient have chelation. At his next appointment, he told me, “I feel young again instead of tired and weak.” His blood pressure was also back to normal. At Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine, I routinely test patients for lead exposure and other heavy metal toxicity. My patients are always shocked by the results. At my clinic, I’ve been helping patients use chelation for years to rid their bodies of heavy metals and other toxins. It’s a safe, easy, and fast solution, with a very low risk of side effects. IV chelation delivers calcium disodium EDTA directly into your bloodstream.7 In just about an hour, this “claw” binds to the heavy metals and toxins in your bloodstream and those that have accumulated in the fat in your tissues, like your liver, and pulls them out. EDTA is an effective procedure to remove toxic metals from human organs, tissue, and blood. Help to Detox Heavy Metals at Home While chelation therapy is the most effective way to purge heavy metals from your body, I understand not everyone can do it. There are ways to detox easily at home. Here’s what I’ve found works well: First, detox with dandelion. Greens from the plant stimulate the liver and act as a diuretic for excess water. Use 5 to 10 grams of dried leaves. Then flush toxins with chlorella. This edible alga binds to toxins and pulls them out of your body. Take 1 gram with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You can increase the dose to up to 3 grams three times a day. Finally, add in milk thistle. This is still my go-to detoxifier. I have been able to document its capacity to heal damaged livers by measuring serum liver enzymes. Milk thistle is the plant Silybum marianum. I recommend 200 mg in capsule form twice a day. Look for dried extract with 80% silymarin.
