So when you look at the research on the correlation between a bile of a particular toxin and a particular disease we're looking at, if you do it according to age, you don't see very many correlations until about the age of 50. Because up until about the age of 50, our body is pretty able to adapt to the damage from the toxin and work around it.

But when we hit about age 50, there's two big things that happen. Number one is our body load of persistent toxins has now become much, much higher. So these are toxins that take so long to get out of our body, we can't get rid of them. So PCBs, for example, if you go to a restaurant and eat farmed fish, some of the PCBs in farmed fish have a half-life ranging from 10 to 20 years.

It takes four half-lives to get rid of the toxin. So you go eat that farmed fish, and some of those toxin will be in your body for the rest of your life.

Yeah, you have to live past 100 to get rid of them. Okay, so then, so what's happening is the bile load is going up. But now with the body load going up, we've chemically damaged our DNA. So our ability to respond to them and adapt to them has now become limited. And now all of a sudden, all the disease correlations start showing up.

The immune system. Okay. So the immune system is very, very susceptible to environmental toxins. So I just gave a lecture on PFAS, the perfluorinated compounds.

Worst place, fast food. Popcorn, fast food are the worst by far. Microwave popcorn.

Regular popcorn is fine. Microwave popcorn is problematic. When I was looking at this, I was looking at COVID and PFASs. and looked at people who had either no COVID or mild case compared to people who had a severe version of COVID. The ones who got severe version had 50% to 100% higher levels of PFAS in their body compared to those who did not get bad COVID.

So just a simple thing like that, enough damage to immune system, couldn't get rid of the COVID virus fast enough, now you've got problems.
