In this powerful episode of the Whole Body Detox Show, host David DeHaas from Living Waters Wellness Center (Living Waters Cleanse) explores the critical connection between diet, brain health, gut function, and chronic disease prevention. Drawing from real-world clinical experience and emerging research, David uncovers how the foods you eat today directly impact your cognitive health, energy levels, and long-term vitality.

This episode dives deep into a 15-year Swedish study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, revealing that individuals who consume higher amounts of unprocessed meat—especially grass-fed beef—may experience slower cognitive decline and a reduced risk of dementia. The discussion highlights the importance of the APOE4 gene, a major genetic factor linked to Alzheimer’s disease, and how personalized nutrition strategies can play a key role in protecting brain function.

David explains how essential nutrients like vitamin B12, healthy saturated fats, and amino acids found in high-quality animal products support neurotransmitter function, brain cell repair, and overall mental clarity. He also addresses the growing epidemic of brain fog, memory loss, and early cognitive decline—even among younger adults, connecting these issues to poor diet, environmental toxins, and gut dysfunction.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why grass-fed, organic beef is superior to grain-fed meat and how it impacts inflammation and brain health
  • The hidden dangers of processed foods, refined sugars, seed oils, and high-carbohydrate diets
  • How gut health influences the brain through the gut-brain axis and why detoxification is essential
  • The role of colon cleansing and toxin removal in restoring energy and mental clarity
  • Why assisted living diets may accelerate cognitive decline due to poor nutrition
  • How antioxidants and prebiotic fibers—especially from vegetables like asparagus—support digestion, immunity, and cellular repair
  • The importance of reducing exposure to pesticides, herbicides, and environmental toxins

David also challenges conventional dietary guidelines, questioning low-fat and plant-heavy recommendations that may not work for everyone—especially those with specific genetic profiles. Instead, he emphasizes a more individualized approach to nutrition, encouraging listeners to understand their bodies, test for genetic risk factors, and choose whole, nutrient-dense foods.

Whether you’re looking to prevent cognitive decline, improve gut health, eliminate brain fog, or optimize your overall wellness, this episode provides actionable insights and practical strategies you can start implementing today.

The guests of this show provide their own opinions and may not represent the values or beliefs of Living Waters Wellness Center or Whole Body Detox Show. And welcome everyone to today's Whole Body Detox Show. I'm David DeHaas from Living Waters Wellness Center.

Unknown Speaker (0:25): Living Waters Wellness Center was formed after we discovered how to heal my body from multiple symptoms, including allergies, asthma, chronic fatigue, back pain, psoriasis, acne, hives, yeast infections, and finally cancer. And I did it all naturally. After twenty years of trying numerous different treatments, medical treatments, cleanses, iridology, muscle therapy, acupuncture, acupressure, homeopathy, naturopathy, those experiences led us to discover that recipe that led to become known as the four natural laws of healing. Combining multiple natural healing modalities to fully detox and cleanse the body and allowing the body to take the perfect nutrition to fully restore the body back to its innate health. This became known as a ten day healing retreat.

Unknown Speaker (1:02): We've helped thousands of people just like you get their health restored so they can live their life to the fullest.

Click on that link for natural laws of healing and watch the video or call the office at (208) 378-9911. Good morning, my friends. David DeHaas, Living Waters Wellness Center, where miracles begin by healing from within.

David DeHaas (1:28): And today, we're gonna talk a little further about a couple of foods that you should be putting in your diet. We ended up last week's session on is cheap beef worth the price. And I hope you came to the same conclusion that I did at the end of that piece that getting toxic beef fed by seeds, grains, is not good for your body, but grass fed beef is the best. So, people like farmer John out in Weiser growing his cows on grass is the best way to go. And you've also heard me talk on this show going back to episodes 200 through two zero four, and beyond.

David DeHaas (2:06): We talked a lot about dementia, Alzheimer's in those episodes. Also, I think episode two nine and two ten. And we talked about how we solve this crisis. We literally got a crisis on dementia and Alzheimer's. And I see it every day even, you know, young kids.

David DeHaas (2:21): I say young kids. Anybody 68 is young to me. It's all reference point, my friend. All reference point. But I'm seeing, you know, people come in in their thirties and forties and definitely their fifties, and they've just complained of brain fog.

Unknown Speaker (2:34): And there's so many factors on it, but let's just talk about diet. First of all, you gotta be eating organic. And I see this play out in real time. My lovely mother, who I've talked about a few times in my show, is now in full on memory care. And as I've mentioned to you in those shows back there in February through 02/2004, you're not gonna get a good diet in assisted living.

Unknown Speaker (2:54): So you need to keep your butt out of those facilities. The food there is mostly processed food, very little meat, and a lot of juices, a lot of, processed stuff like the yogurt that day she had, a lot of high fructose corn syrup. And my mom's deteriorating pretty rapidly now. And I believe it can be slowed down if I had her on a good diet, but I don't have that option right now to, put her at under twenty four hour care under my personal supervision. So I had to put her someplace and that someplace is the best memory care place I could figure out in town and there she is.

David DeHaas (3:28): But, you know, it's carbohydrates. And look at Your diet today at 30, 40, and 50 is gonna determine how you're living at 60, 70, 80, 90, and beyond. And this article out of our good old friends at the Epoch Times highlights that. Article entitled eating meat may protect people at risk of Alzheimer's disease. A 15 Swedish study finds that unprocessed meat may shield carriers of the APOE four gene against Alzheimer's.

David DeHaas (3:55): You can get a test, and you can see if you have the APOE four gene. I do not, thankfully. And you can have two snippets of that, which makes it even worse. But they're saying today, well, if you get diagnosed, if you go get a blood test, test for that marker, see what you're at risk at. You want me to get go back and list those episodes and I'll put them all in the show notes on the podcast so you can find those links to those shows because we did a lot of great in-depth dive research about in terms of exercise and what you should be drinking and eating and not drinking and not smoking or not taking.

David DeHaas (4:35): I mean, most Americans are on way too many drugs. And that's a factor. Alcohol is a factor. Doctor Amen, who runs Amen Brain Clinics, he shows you those spec scans. And I don't care if you're smoking weed or drinking alcohol.

Unknown Speaker (4:50): Those scans show that you've got brain damage. You're damaging your brain every time you drink. Thankfully, I got fed up with drinking and the effects of the hangovers when I was about 27, 28 and said, no, I'm not gonna do that again. And, you know, I've had a few drinks, you know, over the years, but, you know, we tried to drink, you know, find some wines that were good. And then we'd react to the sulfites in the wines.

Unknown Speaker (5:14): And I did a show on wines way back. And and quite frankly, they're they're spraying glyphosate. They're spraying all this pesticides and herbicides. If you wanna get a good quality wine, you probably have to grow the grapes yourself and make your own is what the conclusion I came to out of that episode. So beef, eating meat, and we're going get into this.

David DeHaas (5:36): Want to share with you an account you should probably follow over on X. So here's the results of the study. Among people carrying the APOE4 gene, the gene that puts people at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, those who ate the most meat in their weekly diets showed slower declines in memory and thinking compared with those who ate the least meat. Those who ate more meat overall had significantly slower cognitive decline and a lower risk of dementia, but only if they had the APOE three slash four or the four slash four gene variants, the author stated. Published in the JAMA, the Journal of American Medical Association Network opens, you can look it up there if you like, the study followed more than 2,000 adults older than age 60 and suggests that general dietary advice for brain health needs to be more tailored to a person's genetic profile.

David DeHaas (6:25): The APOE4 gene is the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, although carrying it does not mean that a person will develop the condition. People can inherit one or two copies, often written as the threefour or fourfour. About one in four Americans carry at least one copy of the APOE4 gene, while roughly two thirds of the people with Alzheimer's disease carry the gene. Wow. Meanwhile, researchers split participants into five groups based on how much meat they ate, adjusting for calorie.

David DeHaas (7:00): These in the highest group ate about 870 grams per week, roughly one and a half servings a day, while those in the lowest group ate less than half that amount. Among the people with the eight POE4 gene, those who ate the least meat had more than double the dementia risk of people without the gene. Wow. But among the highest meat eaters, the risk gap narrowed to the point where it was no longer statistically significant for both dementia and overall cognitive decline. The findings suggest that one size fits all dietary advice does not carry for everyone.

David DeHaas (7:35): For some APOE4 carriers, eating very low amounts of meat may not be optimal for brain health. Our findings suggest that conventional dietary advice may be unfavorable to the genetically defined subgroup of the population. Not all meat appeared equal. However, diets higher in processed meats, such as bacon, sausages, and deli meats, were linked to a higher risk of dementia regardless of genetic background. The apparent benefit among APOE4 carriers was tied only to eating more unprocessed meats, such as fresh red meat and poultry.

David DeHaas (8:12): Researchers also saw a lower overall death risk among APOE4 carriers whose diets were higher in unprocessed meats. All participants were free of dementia at the start. The fifteen year study drew on data from the Swedish National Study on Aging and Care Kungsholmen. Participants completed detailed food frequency questionnaires and then tracked them. For people with APO4 gene, diet likely matters because this gene helps control how the body handles fats and certain nutrients, including vitamin B12.

Unknown Speaker (8:41): We talked about that a lot on the show lately. Yes. Do I eat fruits and vegetables? Lower on the fruits, higher on the vegetables. I'm gonna tell you a story about vegetables.

David DeHaas (8:52): There are certain vegetables that are great. Now people talk about carb, low carb, high carb, blah blah blah. What generally going low carb means in general to the public is, hey, stay away from the processed foods. Stay away from okay. Good carbs are your okay.

Unknown Speaker (9:09): Bell peppers, broccoli, asparagus. Those are great vegetables to be eating. Other vegetables are going to spike your blood sugar. You know, maybe carrots, right? If you're going to juice carrots, you're going spike your blood sugar a bit more.

Unknown Speaker (9:22): Anyway, what I found and what I've we've known over here on the ten day heating retreat, we teach eat right for your blood type. And we found that to be pretty doggone spot on. If the book's out there, I think it's still in print. You get on Amazon. The author, I'd have him on, but he passed on.

Unknown Speaker (9:38): His clinic's still back on the East Coast. I think his family's running it today. One of my clients goes there. And we teach you to muscle test for everything you put in your body. And I think that's what's really, really important is muscle testing.

David DeHaas (9:50): I know some people say, damn, I just can't eat quite that much meat. I get it. Fine. But here's what we do know. Cow meat, beef is really and lamb are really good for you.

Unknown Speaker (10:01): Goat meat, venison, great. Chicken, we all got to go chicken, go chicken. Well, what's interesting about converting and keeping the toxins out of the body, the chicken will carry those toxins into their fat. Isn't that interesting? But anyway, you got to go follow Sam Hoole.

Unknown Speaker (10:18): So here's what he said. I don't eat salad because I'm not a rabbit. I don't eat grass because I'm not a cow. I don't eat seeds because I'm not a sparrow. I don't eat oats because I'm not a racehorse.

Unknown Speaker (10:28): I don't eat lentils because I'm not surviving the siege of medieval village. I don't eat fruit smoothies because I'm not a toddler being bribed in the car seat. I don't eat soy because I'm not a vat in industrial oil press. I don't eat seed oils because I'm not a paint thinner. I don't eat margarine because I'm not a science experienced that escaped the lab in 1911.

David DeHaas (10:46): I don't eat fortified breakfast cereal because I'm not a marketing department quarterly budget. I eat fatty red meat because I'm a human being and that was what we always have been. And his posts are so spot on. Here's another one I wanna read. And Sama, s a m a, then h o o l e, Hole Hole?

Unknown Speaker (11:04): Hoe lay? I don't know how you pronounce it. He states here in this one post, the real vegan, if she actually thought it through, would eat grass fed beef and lamb, drink milk, wear wool and leather, and cook with butter and tallow. Hear me out, he says. The premise of veganism is the reduction of animal suffering and the protection of the environment.

David DeHaas (11:21): Both reasonable concerns, both worth holding. The grass fed cow on a British hillside lived approximately the best life any animal has ever access to. So the lamb on the fell above her, they walked, they grazed, they had young. They were known by the farmer by name. When they went, they went quickly on a single bad day at the end of a long, good life.

David DeHaas (11:40): The vast majority of vertebrates in nature do not get that. A field of cattle and sheep on permanent pasture supports 300 species of invertebrate, multiple bird species, a living soil microbe, and a hedgerow ecosystem unmatched by anything arable. A field of soy harvested by a combine supports zippo. None of these. Mice, voles, rabbits, ground nesting birds, and field invertebrates are killed in the harvesting of arable crops at a rate of roughly 12 animals per hectare per year.

David DeHaas (12:10): The vegan diet sourced from monoculture arable causes substantially more direct animal death than the grass fed beef and lamb diet calorie for calorie. Wolf comes from a sheep who needs shearing. Anyway, reuse it. And if she dies of a fly strike, refuse it. Leather is a byproduct of an animal already raised for food.

David DeHaas (12:29): Refuse it, and you have saved no animal and bought a polyester equivalent that will outlive you in a landfill. Milk comes from a cow or ewe producing more than her young needs. Refuse it, and she gets mastitis. Tallow is rendered by the same animals. Refuse it.

David DeHaas (12:43): Buy palm oil instead, and you have funded the clearance of an Indonesian rainforest. The honest vegan, doing the mass, eats grass fed beef and lamb on a sundae. Butter on her bread, wool on her body, and leather on her feet. The current vegan eats Brazilian soy, wears Texan polyester, and considers the animals on the hill a problem. The animals on the hill are the answer.

Unknown Speaker (13:04): Most vegans, if they actually got out of London, would meet the answer in person and quietly change their mind on the train home. Back in a moment. David DeHaas, Living Waters. (208) 378-9911. Living Waters Cleanse dot com is where the website resides.

Unknown Speaker (13:20): Nothing is more exciting than seeing a client shed their diseases and symptoms caused from accumulated toxins from the chemicals in our foods, the clothes we wear, and the air we breathe, than by cleansing through colon hydrotherapy and treating the whole body naturally. Here's what a few clients had to say about their experience at Living Waters Wellness Center.

Richard (13:36): My name is Richard. I came to Living Waters because I was low on energy and for my memory, and I've accomplished both. Living Waters did it for me. Thank you, Living Waters.

Beata (13:46): My name is Beata. I came to Living Waters Wellness because also I have problem with carpal tunnels. And now I move my hands. It doesn't hurt. I don't feel tension.

Beata (13:56): So thank you.

Client 3 (13:57): I came into Living Waters because I've suffered with allergies and asthma my whole life. I was recently diagnosed with EoE, which is where your food gets stuck in your esophagus from high eosinophils in my blood. Since I've been here, I have more energy. I have no hardly any mucus, and I can think more clearly. I feel better.

Client 3 (14:19): My skin feels better. Thank you, Living Waters.

Client 4 (14:21): I came to Living Waters because I've had a persistent rash on my face for two years. I also have migraines that go along with my menses. I have brain fog, lack of focus, and motivation, and I'm on medicine for thyroid and my pituitary gland. Since coming to Living Waters, I no longer have my rash. I do not have any sugar cravings, and I have lots of motivation and focus.

Client 4 (14:44): Thank you, Living Waters.

David DeHaas (15:08): And welcome back to the show, David DeHaas, livingwaterscleanse.com, where miracles begin by healing from within. And, we're talking today about beef and other nutrients that are beneficial for your body. And we're talking right now about preventing Alzheimer's in the APOE four gene, how important that is. B 12 is essential for nerve function and is found mainly in animal products, especially meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. Earlier studies have shown that the APOE four carriers with low B12 levels are more vulnerable to cognitive decline and poor brain health.

David DeHaas (15:46): In the new study, APOE4 carriers who ate more meat showed higher B12 levels in their blood than people who ate less. This study also suggested that carriers of APOE4 were better able to absorb vitamin B12 from meat compared with those with other variants of APOE. More broadly, APOE helps move cholesterol and other fats through the bloodstream and into the brain. Where they are used as fuel and as building blocks for brain cells, the APOE4 variant has been linked to less efficient handling of these fats and to a higher risk of Alzheimer's related brain changes over time. APOE4 is the evolutionary oldest variant of the APO gene and may have arisen when our ancestors ate a more animal based diet, the author said.

Unknown Speaker (16:32): That history, he and colleagues suggest, could help explain why carriers may respond better to diets that include more animal based foods. For people who do not carry APOE4, research suggests that eating a balanced diet is more productive of brain health. I would say that the best diet is a plant based diet with occasional fish. That's hilarious. Okay.

Unknown Speaker (16:54): We just got done talking about how powerful meat is. They're just like, well, you should be eating some more plants. No. I disagree. Oh my word.

David DeHaas (17:03): That's just hilarious. Just contradict the whole article. That was a guy, Doctor. Morale Doriswami, a psychiatrist at Duke University. Well, I wouldn't Okay.

Unknown Speaker (17:12): I disagree, sir. Diets built around vegetables, whole grains, beans, and low dietary fat, such as the DASH and MIND diets, have been found to lower blood pressure and support healthier blood vessels. Holy moly. I mean, okay. You just debunked the whole article above the whole study.

David DeHaas (17:30): Okay. We know that Kennedy has tipped this is hilarious. He's tipped the scale. We flipped it. And what's Kennedy doing?

Unknown Speaker (17:38): Kennedy's eating straight carnivore right now. He found he had a whole bunch of visceral fat around his organs, and he went straight carnivore to change it. We had doctor Rosie Maine on several weeks ago, type one diabetes she got just a a year or so ago. How is she managing it? Well, she found that if she did carnivore, she barely needed any insulin help.

Unknown Speaker (17:56): I mean, so her and her family are on this carnivore diet right now. Okay. So this in this article okay. This is hilarious. This is hilarious.

Unknown Speaker (18:04): We talk about we need meat to prevent Alzheimer's. No. Eat more plants. Oh my god. This is just hilarious.

David DeHaas (18:10): Alright. Oh my word. Okay. Eat the beef. And for you b types like myself, lamb's your friend.

David DeHaas (18:18): Lamb is really good. Okay. There's a guy if you're on x, follow me at real David DeHaas. I just posted some of our success stories over there. We're also on Instagram at Living Waters Cleanse.

David DeHaas (18:32): Facebook at Living Waters Wellness, YouTube at Living Waters Wellness Center, and so forth. Anyway, there's a guy named Sama Hoole from Great Britain, and he talks a lot about cows and goats and sheep and how there's such benefit to us and to our overall health. And this is interesting today, because he talks about how cows, they're the ultimate vegetarians. Right? Well, they're they he calls them the ruminati because they have, you know, three stomachs.

Unknown Speaker (19:03): They're ruminating. They're eating all the stuff, the grass, the fields. The goats are eating whatever they can get their hands on. And they but they convert it. They convert it into beef, which converts us into fats.

Unknown Speaker (19:14): And if you're getting the fat your brain needs fats. Your body needs fat. This whole plant based go low fat BS from the sixties and seventies is still being printed like I just got did contradicting this article in the Epoch Times. It's hogwash. Yes.

Unknown Speaker (19:33): I don't know where that term hogwash came from. But anyway, it's hogwash. Trust me. Hogwash. Okay.

Unknown Speaker (19:38): Great. We'll do ten days a month. We'll be open ten days a month. I was had another complete different business in nutrition industry and set the business up for my daughter. She still owns a business to this day.

Unknown Speaker (19:50): And that was it. Open ten days a month and then we closed the rest of the time. We weren't gonna do colon hydrotherapy of one offs because we knew that the ten day was, like, so powerful. It's like, come on. Ten days out of your life.

Unknown Speaker (20:02): Boom. Get your health back. But some of you couldn't take the time off. You're constipated. I just need a few colonics maybe.

Unknown Speaker (20:10): We we didn't really we opened up every day for the follow ups. But don't get me wrong. Any garbage you can take out of the body, whether it's one colonic, five colonics, 10 colonics, it's gonna make a big impact. And I know some of you just budget wise, maybe you can only afford one or two a month. Do it.

Unknown Speaker (20:27): Maintain your gut like you do your car. Change the oil regularly. Check the tire pressure. Getting rid of inflammation is job one. And and you get and you get rid of inflammation, you gotta get rid of the toxicity.

Unknown Speaker (20:38): When you got 10 to 15 pounds of old fecal matter in the trunk, you're not gonna you're just fighting yourself. The good news is the gut heals very fast every five days, brand new cells. Brand new cells in your gut. Brand new carpet as I call it. When you watch the video called the four natural laws over on the website, you'll understand what I mean.

Unknown Speaker (20:56): And that should be and by the way, to come see us, you gotta watch the video, so go watch it. I'm a teach you a lot there. Okay. Asparagus. One of my favorites.

Unknown Speaker (21:04): It's spring asparagus time. I like to put this in tons of butter. And I don't use margarine. I use butter. I don't use coconut oil.

Unknown Speaker (21:12): I use butter. I use butter and salt. And I use Himalayan salt. I don't use iodized salt. There's no iodized salt in my house.

Unknown Speaker (21:18): There's none of that poison anywhere. If I were to go if I was to to go out and clean up the restaurants of Boise, Idaho, I would go over to every table. I'd take off the aspartame, the Splenda, and the salts, and I would put them in the trash. And I would give you honey, real honey, not in a plastic bottle, in glass. And I would give you either Himalayan salt or Celtic sea salt.

Unknown Speaker (21:42): I would give you good quality salt. Alright. Let's talk about asparagus. This is now the hip hop times as well. And, from this, course, key things to understand.

David DeHaas (21:51): In a comparison of 34 fruits and vegetables, one cup of raw asparagus provides about three grams of fiber and is a source of inulin, a prebiotic fiber. You want the prebiotics to help with the gut microbiome. Iron. One cup also offers roughly 10% of the daily value for iron. Vitamin k.

David DeHaas (22:10): 10 cooked asparagus spears, which is two servings, provide a half the daily value of vitamin k, and then folate. One of asparagus' standout nutrients is folate, providing about 37% of the daily value. But not all asparagus berries are nutritionally the same. Green asparagus, the most commonly available type at the market, is rich in phenolics and flavonoids, including rutin and quercetin. These compounds neutralize free radicals and offer anti inflammatory benefits.

David DeHaas (22:43): White asparagus grown without sunlight has slightly fewer antioxidants but is still nutritious. Purple asparagus contain anthocyanines, the same antioxidant pigments found in berries, which contribute to its higher antioxidant activity compared with green or white varieties. Purple asparagus takes the top spot, boasting the highest radical scavenger power from anthocyanines that amplify the benefits with extra heart and brain protection.

Unknown Speaker (23:11): So

David DeHaas (23:11): remember, anthocyanins. Asparagus also provides several nutrients that play important roles in cell repair, skeletal health, and gut support. Asparagus is one of the richest vegetable sources of folate, a key nutrient for the body's core cellular processes. Every time your body creates a new cell, whether it's skin, muscle, or blood, it relies on folate to get the job done right. This B vitamin helps build and maintain DNA, the genetic blueprint inside every cell.

David DeHaas (23:40): It is also essential for normal cell division, and adequate levels can support healthy oxygen transport and tissue renewal. Without enough of it, cells don't divide properly. Folate is important for cell growth and DNA repair, which is why it's especially important during pregnancy, but is special beneficial beyond there since our bodies are constantly regenerating cells. A twenty twenty five study published in the Journal of Cell Biology found that folate is critical for producing the building blocks needed to form and repair DNA. What else is it good for?

Unknown Speaker (24:12): Well, gut health. Talk about that more in a minute when we come back. I'm David DeHuss from livingwaterslivingwaterscleanse.com. (208) 378-9911. Nothing is more exciting than seeing a client shed their diseases and symptoms caused from accumulated toxins from the chemicals in our foods, the clothes we wear, and the air we breathe, than by cleansing through colon hydrotherapy and treating the whole body naturally.

That show, oh my gosh, that should be a must listen to as well as show number two with Anne Louise Gittleman who's, old timer and I always say old timer.

Unknown Speaker (27:39): She's my age, I think. In the industry, developing nutritional products, colon hydrotherapist, knows her stuff. You can follow her over on the Facebooks as well. Anyway, we've been talking about meat and beef, and I told you to follow Samma. He's got some great posts.

Unknown Speaker (27:53): I hope he makes a book out of all of his posts, because you need real food. And and like I say, we're seeing dementia, Alzheimer's crisis. It's a crisis. And part of this is because of the heavy metals, all the mercury put in their teeth fillings. It also includes the pesticides, herbicides.

David DeHaas (28:10): We got a big case. By the time this airs, the case will have been heard. The whether Monsanto and Bayer get away with liability immunity from liability from their pesticides and herbicides, I hope they do not. The courts do not find for them. We've got a real crisis there.

Unknown Speaker (28:28): We got a crisis with all the electromagnetic frequencies, which we've talked about in the show. Poof. Umpteen number of times, and we still got some really bad bills in congress that needs to be dodged, super dodged, as I would say. But you need a little fiber in the diet. And I'm gonna tell you, this is one of my favorite vegetables, quite frankly, is asparagus.

Unknown Speaker (28:50): It's super high in antioxidants, and, it's good for the gut and good for the bones. And as you all know, living waters, we're all about the gut. We got you gotta heal the gut first before any effectual healing can take place. There's gonna be a biohacking event coming up in in Boise. And if I have the date here, it's gonna be in June.

Unknown Speaker (29:10): And, yours truly I don't have the date yet, but yours truly is gonna be a speaker there. You can't biohack until you have the foundation prepped. You got you gotta heal the foundation. You can't biohack either. You take all the supplements you want, But until you get your gut healed, my friend and we started this.

Unknown Speaker (29:27): Look. When we started Living Waters, my wife, I said, oh my god. This is it. We gotta do the ten day. Unlike digestible carbohydrates, inulin passes through the small intestine intact and is fermented in the colon.

David DeHaas (29:39): When fermented in the colon, inulin produces short short chain fatty acids, including butyrate, talked about that a lot in the show, which strengthens the gut barrier, reduces inflammation, supports immune function, and promotes regular bowel movements. A 2023 study published in foods compared asparagus driven fructans with commercial inulin sources and found that asparagus extracts exhibited similar prebiotic activity in laboratory tests. The real thing is pretty good, as God intended it. You don't need to get a big tub of inulin. You can just use the food.

David DeHaas (30:12): While asparagus alone hasn't been directly studied for bone outcomes, its vitamin K content meaningfully contributes to overall intake. The vitamin K helps activate proteins that bind calcium to bone tissue, supporting proper mineralization and skeletal strength. A 2023 systematic review, a meta analysis published in Bone and Joint Research, found that vitamin K supplementation modestly increased lumbar spine bone mineral density in middle aged and older adults with benefits linked to improved activation of osteocalcin, a protein that helps bind calcium to bone. Similarly, a 2025 study published in nutrients found that administering vitamin K1 increased circulating levels of activated osteocalcin. No single food determines bone health on its own, but regularly including vitamin K rich vegetables such as asparagus can support overall skeletal health.

David DeHaas (31:05): Asparagus contains potassium, an essential mineral that helps regulate fluid balance and maintain proper muscle and nerve function. Higher dietary potassium intake has also been associated with improved cardiovascular outcomes, particularly when it helps offset excess sodium consumption. And for your skin, my ladies, asparagus spear extract is used as an ingredient in some anti wrinkle cosmetic products. A 2021 study published in Scientific Reports found that spear extracts showed strong antioxidant activity and significantly inhibited enzymes associated with skin aging. These enzymes break down collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which are essential for maintaining skin firmness and hydration.

David DeHaas (31:46): Big thing about bones. Understanding if you ever got bone loss, osteoporosis, two big things you can do tomorrow. One, start moving. Do some weight bearing exercises. Get your vitamins and minerals.

David DeHaas (31:59): Get a good quality base. I started taking vitamins and minerals back in 1991 after I tore my ACL and my meniscus in my knee. And I learned in about two years later that I'd repaired my meniscus tear on basically, just all I had to change as my diet was my vitamins and minerals I'd been taking for two and a half years. Ten years after I started taking those vitamins, my wife and I got bone density scans. And the gal was shocked.

Unknown Speaker (32:23): She asked who the heck we were. She says, I don't understand this. You guys' bone density is off the charts. What do you do? Well, we've been taking this product for a long, long time, a supplement we've been selling down here for thirty years.

Unknown Speaker (32:34): And interesting enough, what's happens when you don't get the vitamins and minerals you need every day, your heart, liver, spleen, kidneys, those are essential organs. And if you don't have the vitamins and minerals to keep it functioning, guess what? It has to go someplace and get it. Where does it go? The bone says, nah.

Unknown Speaker (32:49): No problem. Take a look few of my minerals. Or the hair. That's why some of you, your hair is dropping out. You're nutritionally deficient.

David DeHaas (32:56): Or maybe your eyesight begins to diminish. Or your nails are thin. My nails are never strong. Some people say, yeah. And I can tell because you're nutritionally deficient because I'm just looking at your skin alone.

David DeHaas (33:07): Your skin's a mess. And then you go out and spend all this money on fillers and crazy toxic chemicals, And all you had to do was, you know, eat an organic diet, detoxify the body, and give it a good base foundation of vitamins and minerals. My friend in 1992 had some bone taken out, they said the bone will never grow back. Well, ten years later, that bone has completely grown back. And they experiment with this in cattle herds and so forth and same thing.

Unknown Speaker (33:32): They had you know, their their health rate of the cattle herd improved immensely when they gave them good quality chelated minerals that actually got absorbed into the body. So, you need good vitamins and minerals. And then antioxidants, what we're talking about here in asparagus is antioxidants are basically stopping the cells from being oxidized. Think of an apple. You cup an apple, let it sit on the counter.

David DeHaas (33:52): It's gonna oxidize. It's gonna turn brown, that rotting out process of the cells. That's what's happening in your body in real time. More so around pollution, stress, those all bring more anti brings more oxidants or free radical damage to the body. Well, to mitigate that, you should be on a good antioxidant vitamin and mineral supplement, but also be taking foods high in antioxidants like asparagus.

Unknown Speaker (34:16): That's my point. This is a really good plant, very beneficial for the body, and it's also gonna help you poop. Now, you could add also another prebiotic fiber is psyllium. Now, psyllium doesn't have a lot of antioxidant, has no antioxidants in it but what happens to so many of you, you get dehydrated, you get stressed, stress is what creates constipation And you say, well, I've I'm drinking lots of water, Dave. I drink a gallon a day.

Unknown Speaker (34:40): I said, yeah. But you avoid damages done. You're stressed when you had the baby. You're stressed when you got the job or you got divorced or whatever. It twisted the intestinal tract.

David DeHaas (34:49): And and as you'll see in the video at livingwaterscleanse.com, the four natural laws of healing, you watch the video, you see the the X rays that doctor Kanita Holmes shares with you. Well, the only way you're gonna straighten out that that big muscle, that colon, small intestine, is you've got to do colon hydrotherapy. Hydrate the muscle, dissolve the old poop, get that 10 to 12 pounds and just jump out of there. Right? Hydrate the tissue.

David DeHaas (35:12): And then every time you that water's going in the colon, that muscle wants to push back. You're literally doing pushups for the colon. It's like you're going to the gym and working out the colon every time you do a colon hydrotherapy session. It's that powerful. And when you do that, you go for some of you are pooping every other day, every three days, every five days.

Unknown Speaker (35:28): Some of you once a week, two weeks. A few of you, every two months. Oh my god. You're on your way to having your colon just taken out and given a bag unless you come down here and hydrate and get that concrete. You've literally got concrete in your gut.

Unknown Speaker (35:41): If you got concrete if you went more than five days, three days, you've got big concrete mass. I call it concrete. Concrete poop in your gut, and it took water's your friend. You just dead that or you take a knife to you, take out part of your colon, which I know some of you have already done it. And you're probably gonna have it done again because you're not doing the things that you need to do to hydrate and get the colon healthy.

Unknown Speaker (36:02): But the foods we eat, the stress we put in our bodies makes a big difference. All diseases are caused by the emotional current you put into the atoms of your cells. And now you've got a physical problem. How we get rid of the physical problem when it comes to constipation is we gotta hydrate with colon hydrotherapy. It's the most inexpensive thing you can do.

Unknown Speaker (36:21): I believe thoroughly that if we had people doing a couple of colon I think we had the whole America doing two colonics a week or one or or two colonics a month, let's just say, two a month, we can cut sick care costs by half. Easy. Easy peasy. Think about it. Do a 100 clients in a year?

Unknown Speaker (36:36): You can be a different person. A completely different person. It's amazing what it does for you. I know I've lived it. When I discovered it in '94, it was like, shazam.

Unknown Speaker (36:46): Where's this been all my life? And then I got to work on the other things like the candida yeast and so forth. But look, my friends, you have a choice on how you live. You can live your best life by taking action today and doing prevention. Or if you're already in a in a causative problem, you gotta detoxify the body.

Unknown Speaker (37:04): I gotta text this message. Hey. My my mom's knee's been hurting. It it hasn't she fell down six months ago. Still hasn't healed.

Unknown Speaker (37:10): She's not using a cane. Yeah. She's got inflammation problems. She's got a lot of toxicity. She can go mechanically have it fixed.

Unknown Speaker (37:16): Which should be great, but it's probably gonna be a problem again. She needs to detox first. I love you all. You have a blessed week. David DeHaas from Living Waters Wellness Center where miracles begin by healing from within.

Unknown Speaker (37:27): (208) 378-9911 livingwaterscleanse.com. Till next week. Have a blessed week, my friends.
