this is
the de of Peace welcome to the D show
are you sick and tired of being sick and
tired well literally my next guest he
was sick and tired of being tired and
sick all the time and he ended up going
to the doctor like most people do and he
just got more sick it wasn't working the
prescription drugs with 20 different
side effects they weren't cutting it and
he took off on a completely different
Journey he started studying food and
became a top nutritionist in many
medical clinics including one of Dr
marola Who we worked with for over seven
years and he is here with us he's
empowering people on how they can make a
change and get more energy become more
vibrant cure many of these ailments and
illnesses that are affecting the
majority of people living today because
because they're not eating real food and
we got an expert in this area to cover
this very important topic we'll be right
back don't go
anywhere this is the
the
the this is the dean show this is the
dean show
hello Jim Marlo how are you doing
welcome to the dean show how you been
I've been very well Edie 40 years you've
been dealing with nutrition you went
from being tired and sick because you
were tired and
sick uh tell us a little B about this
well for the first 20 years of my life I
was a mess I was chronically ill I had
all kind of chronic health problems and
at the age of 20 I reached a point in my
life where I became sick and tired of
being sick and tired all the time and I
recognized that um the doctors that my
parents were taking me
to uh were not helping me they were only
giving
me prescription drugs that at best
helped to reduce some of my symptoms a
little bit in the short run but in the
long run I was getting worse and worse
and worse and I wanted to know how to be
healthy and there was no doctor that I
knew of at that time who could tell me
that so I decided to take responsibility
for my own health and um I knew that the
first thing to do to begin to to take
responsibility for my own health was to
educate myself and so I started learning
about nutrition
and the other what I like to call
fundamental influences on our health
that part of everybody's life and if you
just think things through for yourself
very carefully and and logically um I
think anybody else would come to the
same
realizations that of course what you're
putting into your body every day is
going to be a big and constant influence
on your health and so I started studying
nutrition and I started making
changes and it only took about a week or
two before I actually started to feel
better in a very significant way and I
knew I was on to something and so I
continued to study nutrition that was in
1977 when when I started and I was 20
then now I'm I'm 58 now and I've been
studying nutrition for 38 years and I'm
still studying nutrition because no
matter how much you know or how much you
think you know there's no end to
learning and um I am uh I am devoted to
being a lifelong student and continuing
to evolve my Consciousness in my
practice in um the living of my life and
the engaging in the co proper care and
feeding of my body and I I learned
enough about how to be healthy and
learned enough about nutrition and the
other fundamentals of Health that in
1985 I started doing some nutrition and
health counseling on a professional
level and um I've had a lot of
experience in that area but the
experience that um um people might um
like to hear the most because um they
may recognize they may be very familiar
with this with this um natural medicine
doctor uh is um I for for over seven
years I was the chief nutritionist at Dr
Joe marola's Optimal Wellness Center
when he had a very thriving practice in
Shamburg um because of the popularity of
Dr mola's website and he claims that
he's got the most visited website on the
internet in regard to nutrition and
health topics
and um that may be may be the case but
um his his website has been quite
popular for quite some time and because
of the popularity of his website we were
probably the busiest nutrition-based
Health Center in the country and what I
like to call the Glory Days of that
clinic from 2000 to
2007 and that was that's when I was
there um and um we uh had a lot of
people coming from all over Chicago land
and outside of Chicago land different
parts of the country and even from
outside the country to see our our help
and and uh realizing freedom from a
whole variety of different chronic
health problems and um learning how to
be healthy and we taught them that uh we
got a lot to talk about we want people
one of the benefits now that we want
people to derve uh when they leave the
show is some some things I know this is
a life com this is this is a change of
ways you know to implement you know make
it a way of life so you can really enjoy
life like you're starting to you're
enjoy you've been enjoying now since you
made these changes uh my next question
is going to I I want to how do you
someone tell me this all right you're
making a change and you got family they
love you and they keep bringing this
stuff over so what do we do okay you
you're cutting out and they're like come
on you know and every day you got this
stuff in a fridge so where do well let's
start with uh well if this is if this is
offered to me anywhere I say well thank
you very much but no thank you uhhuh and
people can see this looks good now you I
cannot look I used said I would eat a
whole cake like this on my cheat days
you know well um the first 20 years of
my life I would have eaten it too but um
I sorry let me see I also um I if you
guys can see this man this this is I
mean look this is like woo you sure you
won't have I also I'm positive positive
yeah well see there is no struggle
what's wrong with this I mean come on
enjoy life a little bit well what's
wrong with it is there is right with it
you know um uh many many years ago uh I
I learned the value of uh can't you
smell it yes I I can but it's it's not
enticing at all because it's I don't
even see that as food that's that's
that's to me that's that's that's fake
that's fake food it's it's it's not
anything I want to put into my body I
want to honor my body with the very best
quality nutrition that is a available to
me the very best nutrition that God and
nature have to offer that's what God had
given us this is we can right away agree
this is this is not food now you say
what's in here is poison sugar is poison
it is a chronic not acute chronic dose
dependent depends on how much you eat
because there is a safe
threshold Hep liver
toxin the metabolic diseases that are
associated with obesity the diabetes
the heart disease the lipid problems The
Strokes the cancer those diseases are
being driven by Sugar it's actually
killing killing you in internally
right but now that 60% of the population
is overweight or obese and diabetes
rates have tripled is it possible that
we've been given the wrong advice what
what goes into some of well this I I I
you could call it you can make a that
this is poison but um what I think is a
more accurate way to um to describe what
this and similar products are this is
not going to have a nutritional effect
on your body nut no nutrition in there
it's going to have a drug likee effect
on your body okay okay sugar just
recently scientists discovered a hormone
called leptin leptin's job is to tell
your brain that your body's had enough
to eat guess what gets in the way of
that job sugar when when you indulge in
soft drinks and junk food your brain has
a hard time recognizing leptin so you
stay hungry longer and eat more than you
should this causes problems with your
pancreas your pancreas produces insulin
which helps regulate your blood sugar
the more sugar you have in your
bloodstream the harder your pancreas has
to work and an overworked pancreas can
lead to bad things obesity metabolic
syndrome and type 2 diabetes and when
you consider heart disease and liver
disease both of which can be caused by
sugar then yeah sugar is bad has more of
a drug likee effect it's a stimulant it
it can make people feel better for a few
moments or maybe even a little bit
longer than that but it's not having a a
nutritional effect on the body sugar
fructose is the sweet stuff that's in
sugar and high fructose corn syrup
Sugar's newer and cheaper twin fructose
can do damage to your body in ways we
are just beginning to understand is
actually the most common Addiction in
America and probably the rest of the
world where they where they have it
available but sugar the obvious suspect
at the moment is
sugar sugar is driving all of The
Chronic metabolic diseases that we know
about today is an addictive stimulant
and I know most people don't see it as
that but it's a it's a substance that
only at best is going to cause what I
call metabolic turmoil in your body it's
going to make it harder for your body to
be healthy um and I think it's important
to uh um mature and and to to evolve
your Consciousness you know doing this
as a kid when you don't really know
better and unfortunately if the adult
world around you they don't understand
um uh how harmful this can be to health
and and and you know the adult world you
know is is very good at at turning
children into into addicts for sweets
because they project their own food
preferences and their own Addictions on
the children and then and then the
children become addicts for for sugar in
some form but um it doesn't have to be
that way and um one of my most important
teachings is that um uh the sooner we
develop what I call Nutritional
Integrity the better nutritional
Integrity is all about setting standards
for what is acceptable food and drink
for your body and then being faithful to
those standards and it's it's it's quite
amazing to me in an unfortunate way that
um I've I've known all too many people
who um they they they're they're very
accomplished in many areas of their life
and they have they have integrity in
many areas of life but when it comes to
their nutritional Integrity they eat
whatever they'll put anything into let's
hold right there we're going to actually
and you we want you to give us because
some someone's like look my life's over
now if I can't have this maybe you can
give something that we can take this
away and replace it with something
healthier so let's go we're going to
take a break but but you know what Eddie
we we need to address um uh we're going
to get rid of this a person a person's a
person's current state of health because
if someone is not currently suffering if
they're not currently bothered by some
type of health problem that they want to
be free of in in America typically they
have no motivation to want to give that
up we're going to have to find some
motivation people we're going to have to
we got an expert here we got a lot to
talk about don't go anywhere we'll be

back here on the dean Show expert in
nutrition you worked at some of the um
uh many different uh medical clinics
with uh also um Dr mola for 7 years many
people know him uh tell us now we okay
sugar adding sugar is how the food
industry Engineers
Temptation now the food tastes great in
fact it tastes so great we can't put it
down
this is a win-win for the food industry
they complied with the arguments of the
1980s they've gotten us to eat more and
they are making money hand over fist the
problem is they're doing it at our
expense and we're losing our health have
you seen the documentary Fed Up no I
have yeah very good docu this is this
was this helped me actually it was a
catalyst to me really taking off with
this you know seeing the effects of
white processed refined sugar and and
and pops and sodas and fruit juices and
whatnot and you know once I eliminated
just the sugar when I get people off
sugar and I get their insulin down they
all of a sudden feel more energy they
all of a sudden want to engage in
physical activity and that's part of why
they lose weight I saw a drastic a major
change in my life um uh one thing is and
you could take off from here when you go
into a hospital you supposed to be going
there to get some help and you are going
to many doctors and or you go into a
pediatrician's office and all the kids
are drinking pop and eating chips or in
the waiting room you see a Coca-Cola
machine there's a problem here isn't it
yeah uh let's take off from here what
what do you think so what can we do now
um uh you talked about being cognizant
aware what you're putting in your body
motivating people maybe before a dis
disease hits uh
because of this uh food intake that
we're taking especially this white
refined sugar isn't like obesity is like
leading killer heart disease yes and
many of these other ailments yeah uh
unfortunately uh in America um it's very
few
people come
to set a a high standard of what for
what is acceptable food and drink for
their body what I call Nutritional
Integrity they they typically don't do
it
voluntarily they've got a be forced into
it it's like their own their own um
deteriorating Health their own body um
screaming at them that they need to make
some changes is usually what what is
necessary and that that certainly was
true in my
case um my favorite foods for the first
20 years of my life were pizza ice cream
Fried Chicken Fanny May candy and fast
food Burg with french fries you know
that's about probably 99% of people
right now yeah and and and and not
everybody is is is uh is equally harmed
by it to the extent that I I was some
people have a higher tolerance for
putting junk into their body than other
people but it's important to respect
your own experience the uh very
unfortunate thing about um many people
and was my experience that um I never
saw a doctor when I was growing up my
parents took me to a number of different
doctors I never saw a doctor who even
asked me what I was eating as if it's
completely irrelevant which is um of
course um uh not the case it's it's it's
a fundamental influence on Everybody's
Health um and it's it's one of the
influence that especially as adults we
have we do have complete control over
but I was talking about nutritional
integrity and hand inand with nutrition
integrity
is a Consciousness practice of becoming
what I call a nutrition first eater and
a nutrition first eater is simply
someone who considers the nutritional
value of what they're eating before they
consider The Taste the convenience the
price the appearance the shelf
life all of that um can be
considerations but if you're not
considering the nutritional value of
what you're eating first
then you're only ever really going to
nourish Yourself by accident and if
you're only ever nourishing Yourself by
accident your health is going to be in a
precarious State because what you're
putting into your body every day
certainly is going to influence both the
structure and functioning of your body
sooner or later some people are more
sensitive to their nutrition than other
people but even people that uh May brag
that they can eat anything they have a
cast iron stomach and all that
eventually um they will be affected by
what they're eating and drinking it may
just take longer for some people to
experience the consequences of putting
junk into their body um what I know you
can you can go on about any of these
things that I mentioned to you for you
know hours but just tell us um what are
some things that days maybe days yeah
probably weeks tell us what can people
do that I'm going to name some names of
some popular items M and then get your
thoughts on them in in a couple sent uh
Coke do you think people have any idea
how much Sugar's in it uh and maybe they
don't and and and and I think one of the
things we you it is look look look at
this
23 saet of sugar in that single
container the equivalent
thereof okay uh diet coke uh fake food
uh should be avoided completely if
you're interested in being healthy okay
good microwave popcorn uh avoided
completely that's more fake food okay
that we we covered the fake food for the
fudge cake that we just had yeah well
that's that's what dominates in America
is f so everything you say fake food is
like just stay away from it throw it
away the chances are you're eating more
refined sugar and starch than you
realize it's not just in the obvious
things like soft drinks syrup and Candy
1 half of the sugar that we are
consuming today is in items that we
didn't even know had sugar tomato sauce
barbecue sauce hamburger buns hamburger
meat all sorts of processed foods if you
look at virtually every item in the
store that has a food label it has some
form of sugar if you care for your body
I'd like to share with you my simplest
teaching on nutrition make it easy cuz
many people may we don't want to lose
them and they're like oh give me some
direction Something this is worth this
is worth writing down write it downst
posting this on your
refrigerator but um call this nutrition
101 okay if you want to be real healthy
then eat real food real food and real
food is simple food that does not come
with a label with a list of ingredients
that's pretty I mean it's not the all
the best real food health-building food
Optimum Health sustaining food that
nature has to offer us fresh vegetable
nutrition fresh fruit nutrition fresh
whole grains and legumes and nuts and
Seed s and fresh meats and seafood and
eggs and most dairy products there is no
label with a list of ingredients there
can be especially with dairy products
like with cheese and yogurt and Keir
cottage cheese there can be a label with
the list of ingredients but if you're
getting the really good products there's
not going to be more than three
ingredients I like that so real simple
anything anything that uh uh the crater
has given us to eat is natural like if
you want something sweet can we say like
I mean are these real foods we got yes
that's real food okay this is a keeper
we're keeping it banana you don't you're
not going to make a phone call with but
you can eat it real all right this is
good real avocado we're going to keep it
okay so this you know you know uh this
this food is is largely promoted as
being such a rich source of potassium
which it is but this food is an even
richer source of potassium than this
food and uh it's it's it's funny to me
that the avocado producers don't promote
their food as being an even richer
source of potassium the bananas we're
having a lot of fun we're going to take
a break we'll right back with more mhm
with my special guests don't go anywhere
we'll right back please subscribe to the
dean show follow us on our official
Facebook and Twitter pages in The Links
below please also help support the dean

do already if you haven't subscribe
right now
[Music]
all right back here on the dean show
we're just getting warm warmed up the
time is flying um let's keep it
going I'm going to mention vegetable
oils many people cook with what is it
canana oil and whatnot if you're going
to cook I mean what do you think using
vegetable oil the first first thing
first thing people need to know is there
is no such thing as vegetable oil that's
a madeup marketing name that most people
have bought into but there is no such
thing as vegetable oil what is typic
typically marketed to the public as
vegetable oil is corn oil corn is a
grain uh or soybean oil soy is a legume
or canola oil or cotton seed oil those
are not even food crops you could call
them plant oils but have you ever seen
the oil from broccoli or tomatoes or
bell peppers or asparagus or spinach or
or
lettuces no there is no such thing as as
vegetable oil
so that's that's another we say garbage
that's that's propaganda that is that is
used to Market a product
because everybody has positive thoughts
about
vegetables and so if if uh corn oil was
marketed as it is just corn oil or grain
oil I'm certain it wouldn't sell as well
but marketing it as vegetable
oil people people
um obviously have bought it they
continue to buy it but um corn is
certainly not a vegetable it is a grain
and um soy is a legume cotton seed and
and and and canola canola is made from
the rape seed it's not even a food crop
it's a it's a hybrid of a of a seed that
grows very prolifically mostly in in
Canada and canola is not even it's a
madeup name it stands for Canadian Oil
yeah so what she uh the person in the
kitchen is like what do I cook with well
actually um the the whole practice of
cooking with added fats or oils to
prevent food from sticking to the
surface of the cookware That's not
healthy it never has been and it's a
mistake and I never support that what I
support is people using healthier
cooking practices that where you don't
need fats or oils to prevent the food
from sticking to the surface of the
cookware and you can really only achieve
that when you cook your food at lower
temperatures cooking your food at lower
temperatures more gently you know like
cooking your food on simmer on the stove
top or using a crock pot or using a slow
cooker always use your crock poot on the
lowest setting or steaming your food
there's some other cooking practices
that that that have their place but um I
never support using fats and oils in the
cooking process and I know that's that's
um most people uh want to know what's
the best fat or oil to use for cooking
the the correct answer for health is
none of them how about coconut oil olive
oil well that would be um using coconut
oil or butter would uh cause less toxic
molecules to be produced than using corn
oil or or safflower oil or or even olive
oil but my my teaching is uh you don't
want to create even small amounts of
toxic substances and what you're cooking
there is one other person who supports
my position he's the only other
nutrition
who um has the same position that that I
have he's the only other nutritious I'm
aware of and that's Udo arasmus Udo
Rasmus is the man that wrote The
Definitive book on fats and oils and
human nutrition his book has been
available for a long time it's called
fats that heal and fats that kill and he
has the same exact position that I have
when he's asked the question what are
the best best fats and oils to use for
cooking he always says the same thing
none of them Dr eston I don't know if
you know him he's I had him on the show
um he's from the movie Forks Over Knives
okay uh he has this position tell us uh
oh he shares the same position he does
not recommend any fats or oils in the
cooking process absolutely yeah uh tell
me now um when you're cooking um white
flour that's another common one white
flour yeah but see it's that's a mistake
to use white flour at all CU that's more
fake food that's another fake food yeah
that's right okay so this one we're
throwing there's a lot of things we're
throwing out right now yeah well you
know it's a better approach the focus on
what to eat rather than what not to eat
because okay well how can we substitute
you know substitute now if somebody
wants to make something sweet right so
we're not using that right what what
like you said Eddie here we go natural
sweetness right I I've heard I've heard
uh fresh fruit uh you have raw
unpasteurized uh honey MH how's that uh
dates that's a real food what do you
think um as a as a transition food that
can be good coconut palm sugar but to
really achieve and suain Ain a high
level of Health especially if you're
currently struggling with your health
you got some chronic health
issues it's it's it's best to actually
evolve Beyond wanting to indulge your
taste buds with concentrated sweetness
what we enjoy as a matter of taste is
largely a matter of what we're familiar
with habit you can re-educate your taste
buds you can re-educate your taste buds
and learn to enjoy foods that are truly
nourishing and and health sustaining for
your body but you have to you have to
make some changes and ultimately the
changes come down to what is it you need
to add to your life and what is it you
need to subtract from your life just to
keep it real simple I always recommend
uh to everybody I work with add more
real food and subtract the fake food
that's real simple formula add real food
we we listed some things that are fake
that's basically garbage if it's fake
throw it out and real food give us some
examples of real food chicken steak uh
what what sure well um all whole Fresh
Foods uh vegetables uh salad vegetables
any any vegetables that that you enjoy
whole vegetables get them fresh fresh is
always better than Frozen or canned uh
fresh fruits uh nuts and seeds grains
and legums that covers all the plant
foods and then in the way of animal
Foods Meats fresh meats from healthy
animals it's a very important
qualification fresh meats from healthy
humanely raised animals pasturas
grass-fed beef not Factory found Mar
farm meat organic chicken organic pork
um eggs we you know as Muslims you know
this pork we stay totally
[Music]
away Allah has forbidden everything that
harms the body and the mind and saps the
strength everything that is harmful to a
person is not permitted Allah says in
the Quran say oh Muhammad peace be upon
him I do not find within that which was
revealed to me anything forbidden to one
who would eat it unless it be a dead
animal or blood Spilled Out or the Flesh
of the swine but indeed it is
impure there are reasons that the meat
of the pigs become more saturated with
toxins than many of its counterpart farm
animals the first reason has to do with
the digestive system of a pig pigs are
the filthiest animals on the Earth with
the most parasites and diseases than any
other animal that mankind consumes I can
respect that I can I can I can respect
[Music]
alcohol Allah has for forbidden
everything that harms the body and the
mind and staps the strength everything
that is harmful to the person is not
permitted Allah says in the Quran oh you
who believe intoxicant and gambling and
al- nasab and Al Aslam arrows for
seeking luck or decision are an
abomination of shitan Satan's handiwork
so avoid that in order that you may be
successful when considering the world's
worst killers alcohol likely doesn't
come to mind yet alcohol kills more than
3 million people worldwide each year
including Drink driving alcohol endues
violence and abuse and a multitude of
diseases and disorders alcohol causes
one in 20 deaths globally every year
alcohol kills one person every 10
seconds worldwide alcohol causes some
3.3 million deaths in 2012 equivalent to
5.9% of the global deaths more than
eight tuberculosis and violence combined
and it is on the rise all pork this kind
of the dietary and then the meat that we
that we eat is also it's supposed to be
meat that it's what's called Halal
exactly the same way the all the
prophets have done for thousands years
Abraham
Noah Moses Jesus and Muhammad peace upon
all of them not using stun guns or
hammers or any other equipments
electrical equipments only using simply
only using God's name upon Slaughter
zabia where all the blood comes out
right and it's supposed to be in his
natural habitat yes yes well it's it's
it's very important that that the animal
that the the meats that people eat come
from healthy humanely raised animals and
also the way the animal is killed it
should be in a very humane way that is
very very important I know and that's a
very important part of Hal and I have a
lot of appreciation for that you know
about HAL
yes I I I've I've worked with with um
hundreds of of of uh of of people over
the years who were of of the Muslim
faith in fact a very good friend of mine
in uh in Houston Texas area is a Sufi
yeah we're gonna we're we're actually

was our special guest Jim Marlo Chief
nutritionist going on 40 years worked
with the likes of Dr marola and other
Specialists experts in this field here
on the dean show to Enlighten us and
what's at the end of the day the message
the simple message that you can carry
away from this is eat real food had an
example of the cake made with white
processed refined sugars it's fake food
it has no nutritional value those Dunkin
Donuts no nutritional value but they
have elements in there addictive
elements that get you addicted to
something that has no nutritional value
and actually has harmful elements in
there leading causes for heart disease
for
diabetes and other chronic diseases so
now you're addicted to something that's
going to eventually bring bring on a
chronic disease and then you're going to
be tired and sick all the time so
replace the fake food with real food
