Ream and Run surgery with Dr. Matsen here
VINNIE’S SHOULDER SURGERY
- Vinnie is only typing with one hand
- Take the head off of the humerus and use a drill-like machine to ream all arthritis out and have a metal ball on the bone, body will start growing tissue back in a few months
- Vinnie takes considerably less medicine than he is ‘allowed’/recommended
- Heavy drugs made Vinnie sweat like mad
PAIN AND NSNG
- Vinnie’s shoulder is not inflamed due to NSNG diet
- All of the drainage in his side is gone
- Anna’s lumpectomies were painful, likely due to the fact she was eating sugar and grain
- once she was on NSNG, the procedure was considerably less painful
MAGNESIUM
- PVC is working on a pure form of magnesium
- Good for constipation
- Comes in many types
SUPER FAN RACHEL’S JOURNEY
- A fan of the show could not have children
- Took Pregnenolone, fish oil, PVC, etc.
- Rachel now had perfect hormone balances, perfect health
- She was pregnant!
ANNA’S 10K MUD RUN
- At Camp Pendleton
- Ran 3 miles directly uphill at this camp
- Had to carry ammo, flip tires over, rope climb
- Mud pits began around mile 5
- Marines stationed everywhere
HOW YOUR BODY DISCARDS FAT (46:15)
- You basically ‘exhale’ it
- Zone 2 training is very good for this
- Fat is broken down into fatty acid in blood stream
