0.08 -> I was on high dose vitamin D for 6
years each year my calcium score went up
5.279 -> and now it's a few points over the
maximum I'm off the vitamin D now
9.36 -> and what can I do to lower my calcium
level quickly
19.76 -> well a couple of questions Rick the
first question is what is the maximum
23.199 -> I've got several patients with a calcium
score over a thousand
26.56 -> most of them came to me very concerned
about it we were able to slow that down
30.4 -> and stabilize that and they become very
comfortable
34.239 -> with where they are number two I think
as you may have heard through some of
38.32 -> these discussions
first of all you need to find out why
41.04 -> you were developing the inflammation
and as I said one of the most common
46.399 -> causes is
insulin resistance you also get other
49.2 -> reasons for getting inflammation too
most people don't know this but
53.28 -> rheumatoid arthritis
one of the classic inflammatory diseases
59.199 -> also is a significant risk factor for
heart disease
62.399 -> the other inflammatory diseases often
cause that kind of risk as well
66.4 -> you see other things like elevated
homocysteine an indication of being a
70.08 -> poor methylator
you see other things like elevated
72.799 -> Lp(a) which I mentioned earlier about
Bob Harper
75.68 -> all of these things are things that can
cause inflammation and therefore
79.28 -> elevated calcium I have to tell you
knowing what I know about this process
83.28 -> in this space I'm very skeptical that
vitamin D caused your elevated calcium
88.08 -> scores
99.2 -> why wait for a disease
and hope for a cure I used to be an ER
104.479 -> doc my name is Ford Brewer
I quit ER after a few years because it
108.72 -> was just
so frustrating most of the things
111.6 -> bringing people into the ER
are things that should have been
114.88 -> prevented including
heart attack stroke number one cause of
118.88 -> death number one cause of permanent
disability
121.6 -> people think that you're just gonna have
those and that they're not predictable
125.759 -> both of those are wrong they are
predictable
128.959 -> and you don't have to have them usually
it's lifestyle lifestyle is more
132.56 -> important than
supplements and even prescription drugs
136.239 -> and even
stents and surgery but the current times
139.68 -> are tough
major financial impact with the
142.64 -> lockdowns that most states have been
going through
145.04 -> we've been working on a way to make this
much more affordable with a subscription
149.44 -> process
and that's exactly what we're announcing
151.92 -> today we've got two levels
one is the Silver membership where you
156 -> get access to our courses
a private webinar each month and access
160.48 -> to our supplement store
and supplement recommendations and
164.239 -> prescription or
I would suggest even more so the Gold
167.599 -> membership
you can get a script for a Freestyle
170.319 -> Libre and find out what your blood sugar
metabolism is doing
174 -> on a daily basis and you can get a lab
order for inflammation
178.239 -> OGTT and insulin survey you can also get
a 30-minute one-on-one with me
184.879 -> so I'm looking forward to seeing you
