The Tucker Carlson Show - The Number One Way to Fight Alzheimer’s, Depression and Anxiety Before It’s Too Late

00:00:00.000 Why are men coming to a urologist to talk about their marriages?

00:00:03.720 I'm Dr. Justin Hooman, a urologist practicing in Beverly Hills.

00:00:07.340 And the answer is because ED doesn't stay in the bedroom.

00:00:10.720 I get it. This isn't just physical, it's personal.

00:00:13.400 That's why I recommend Rougiet Ready, a three-in-one treatment that works on your body and your brain.

00:00:19.220 Fast-acting, long-lasting, prescribed by a licensed physician.

00:00:23.140 Get started at rougiet.com slash Justin today.

00:00:26.460 That's R-U-G-I-E-T dot com slash Justin.

00:00:30.000 thank you for coming back i'm really excited about this so um we're going to talk about

00:00:39.500 algae oil and lithium i'm saying i love this but i we were just having a conversation off

00:00:46.340 camera about dogs and i was telling you my crackpot health theories which are very sincere

00:00:50.120 and firmly believed uh but one of them is that sleeping next to your dog in bed and having dogs

00:00:57.600 in your life physically in your life kissing dogs is very important to your health i feel that way

00:01:03.360 strongly but i never tell anybody because it's too crazy but you just affirmed my belief you

00:01:08.400 said there might be some science behind yeah there were there was a paper a few years ago and in

00:01:14.320 science where they actually showed that uh that dogs actually captured what we call the oxytocin

00:01:20.800 system oxytocin is a hormone hormone you know produced by your hormones yeah hormones yeah

00:01:26.400 They are produced and they are for bonding.

00:01:29.100 Actually, the main purpose of oxytocin is, it's a Greek word, it's for easy birth.

00:01:36.700 You know, it actually is activating the uterus and helps delivering the baby. 0.93

00:01:42.740 Yeah, like pitocin that they give to women and ladies. 0.98

00:01:45.940 Yeah, exactly, the same stuff.

00:01:47.060 And every time we look into the eyes or friends and be happy, you know, and companionship,

00:01:52.760 then oxytocin is produced in our body.

00:01:55.660 And the oxytocin has one important function and that is not only to give easy birth when you deliver a baby,

00:02:04.760 but also a second function which is actually important for the bonding between the mother and the child.

00:02:10.300 So the bonding between the mother and child is essential for the life of the child.

00:02:15.340 If you can't remember the child, if you can't smell it, if you don't have a connection to the child, the child is lost.

00:02:21.920 So the mother love and the love of the mother to the child has to keep for the whole life.

00:02:27.700 And this, of course, is a function of our autobiographical memory center, which we call the hippocampus.

00:02:34.720 You know, a seahorse-shaped structure here in the temporal lobe of our brain on both sides, big like a thumb.

00:02:42.240 This is the memory center.

00:02:43.540 Actually, we will talk about this in depth, I guess, because this memory center is important if we are able to think peace,

00:02:50.140 If we actually act like humans, you know, reflect about things.

00:02:55.180 And of course, if it doesn't function, one disease which we all know about, which I call

00:03:01.220 hippocampal dementia, is Alzheimer's.

00:03:04.960 Alzheimer's starts from the hippocampus.

00:03:07.280 And the main reason I published this in 2016, I called it Unified Theory of Alzheimer's,

00:03:13.620 is that this hippocampus has the ability to grow new nerve cells every day.

00:03:20.920 These are required that we can accumulate a lifelong information, knowledge,

00:03:28.020 experiences that are valuable for our children, but also for our grandchildren.

00:03:34.060 The main reason we get that old as we get.

00:03:36.960 Okay, so the hippocampus has to grow new cells.

00:03:39.980 And one of the major fertilizers of this growth process is oxytocin.

00:03:46.500 So when a child is born, a lot of oxytocin is produced.

00:03:49.920 The hippocampus grows and the mother has a better memory than ever in her whole life when the child is born.

00:03:56.760 The same actually does prolactin, which is important for giving milk to the baby.

00:04:01.600 So giving milk to the baby, the birth of the baby produces hormones.

00:04:05.660 And these hormones activate the growth of the hippocampus.

00:04:09.060 And the same goes for dogs. When a dog looks into your eyes, it was proven the oxytocin level increases in your blood, but not only in your blood, also in the dog's blood, by the way.

00:04:21.980 So, there is kind of a bonding between the two species based on the oxytocin system.

00:04:27.600 And the paper in Science about 10, 15 years ago said that the oxytocin system was captured by the dogs so that they become our friendliest companions.

00:04:40.420 What could possibly, first of all, that's beautiful and great to hear, but what could be the purpose of that?

00:04:47.420 Well, for the dogs, it means they get the food every day they need.

00:04:52.680 It's a species which survive that way, and evolution works in a way that you have to survive, and your children have to survive, and your kids have to survive, and that is more likely if the wolf becomes a dog, you know?

00:05:06.980 Yes, the dog is dependent on you.

00:05:08.560 It's dependent on you, and the dependence is guaranteed by the oxytocin system, you know?

00:05:15.460 But why, and I understand that, of course, but what would be the purpose for people?

00:05:21.680 For the people in the past, it was like they were companions in hunting, you know, they protected, you know, your space, you know.

00:05:29.960 Yes.

00:05:30.840 So, they were for safety reasons.

00:05:33.480 And meanwhile, I recommend them actually as a therapy against Alzheimer's or, you know, because.

00:05:38.280 Dogs?

00:05:38.820 Yeah, sure, because they grow the hippocampus.

00:05:41.120 And the bigger the hippocampus, the less likely you get Alzheimer's.

00:05:44.640 Actually, the paper I published, Unified Theory of Alzheimer's,

00:05:47.440 goes back that the fundamental physiological or pathophysiological problem in Alzheimer's

00:05:53.720 is the non-production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus based on our lifestyle.

00:05:59.500 Based on, okay, so the way we live affects the risk of getting Alzheimer's.

00:06:04.520 Exactly.

00:06:05.360 So, when the last time when we talked here about two years ago,

00:06:07.780 we talked about my first book, The Indoctrinated Brain.

00:06:10.960 And there I show that the growth of these new nerve cells is important that we are open for new ideas, for new memories, that we learn, that we reflect about things, but also that we are curious.

00:06:24.780 These new nerve cells are the neuronal correlate for curiosity.

00:06:29.400 Human curiosity is dependent on the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus.

00:06:34.240 So we are more curious when we have a dog because we produce more oxytocin.

00:06:40.280 But what we talked about two years ago was that the spike protein produced by the mRNA that is injected, you know, in this weird program is doing just the opposite.

00:06:53.320 The spike protein activates neuroinflammation in the brain.

00:06:57.820 And we have to talk about neuroinflammation today because lithium is the antidote.

00:07:01.180 Actually, we talked about this two years ago.

00:07:03.300 So, if neuroinflammation occurs and it's chronic because the spike protein doesn't go away, then the neuroinflammatory process activates the production of interleukin-1, interleukin-6, TNF-alpha, all pro-inflammatory cytokines.

00:07:20.260 And the main reason that they are produced is to signal the immune system there is some damage in the brain.

00:07:27.080 But a side effect is, and that's physiological, is that they shut down the hippocampus.

00:07:31.980 They shut down the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus.

00:07:35.720 In the short run, this is good because it creates a behavior that is you are not curious when you are sick.

00:07:41.880 You want to go back.

00:07:42.820 You don't want to socialize.

00:07:44.460 That protects others if you are really sick.

00:07:46.760 You are not curious when you're sick.

00:07:48.420 That is true.

00:07:49.120 Yeah.

00:07:49.480 Yeah, so that is the result in the short term, but if it's chronic, if chronically there's a shutdown of the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus, then the consequences are depression, anxiety, and in the long run, it's Alzheimer's.

00:08:05.320 So, they actually identified after the mRNA injections after a few months that the Alzheimer's rate went up in a study published in Seoul in South Korea that was, I think, published in 2023.

00:08:19.480 And I predicted this already in my book, The Indoctrinated Brain.

00:08:22.600 I said the mRNA injection will increase Alzheimer's.

00:08:26.380 And it has.

00:08:27.660 And it has.

00:08:28.340 It was published in a Korean study. 0.98

00:08:31.260 So all the predictions were correct, unfortunately. 1.00

00:08:34.500 Well, it was good for me because I like it when I'm correct in my predictions, but it's not good for the human world.

00:08:41.540 So humanity hinges on the ability of the hippocampus to produce new nerve cells.

00:08:47.360 That is the key to humanity.

00:08:49.480 If we reduce it to one function of the brain, being human, is that we are curious, that we can reflect, that we have what I call psychological resilience.

00:09:04.860 Because even if you are curious, but you fear going the new path, then it doesn't do any good.

00:09:10.640 Curiosity has to be like two sides of a coin.

00:09:14.040 On the one side, you have curiosity.

00:09:15.520 On the other side, you have the psychological resilience.

00:09:18.220 And this coin with these two sides is based neurologically on the function of the production of new nerve cells.

00:09:28.560 So, you need new nerve cells to be curious, to have resilience.

00:09:32.420 Actually, all drugs that are on the market that are against depression have one key feature.

00:09:39.960 They activate the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus.

00:09:43.560 I'm not saying you have to take them, but this is their function.

00:09:47.560 So they are essentially antidepressants based on the function that they produce in nerve cells in the hippocampus.

00:09:54.180 And being human, in my opinion, means that you are able to produce these cells because then you are curious,

00:10:00.760 you are interested in the opinion of other people, you know, you can reflect on the opinion of other people.

00:10:07.320 There's another feature these cells represent, in my opinion, I outlayed it in my book,

00:10:11.560 is that they confer something what I call not empathy,

00:10:20.700 but the right word is rational compassion.

00:10:27.360 I think it's the right term, rational compassion.

00:10:29.400 So when we are empathic, we immediately act on something.

00:10:33.920 We see something, we act.

00:10:35.060 This person is suffering, we act.

00:10:37.380 But rational compassion is more like,

00:10:39.700 If I do something, what does it mean for the other person?

00:10:43.600 Maybe people who are not even outside, not inside this room, people outside in other countries.

00:10:49.400 What do my actions do to these people?

00:10:52.960 For this, empathy is not the right function in our brain.

00:10:57.720 This is what Kahneman, who got the Nobel Prize about System 1, System 2, 2002, a psychologist, called System 1.

00:11:04.640 It's a reflex.

00:11:05.640 Empathy is kind of a reflex.

00:11:07.520 But rational compassion is something that requires thinking.

00:11:12.020 Thinking about putting yourself in the shoes of others,

00:11:15.260 maybe people you don't even see.

00:11:17.200 Seeing the world out of the eyes from other people.

00:11:20.320 And all these functions are based on the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus.

00:11:25.120 So if you shut down the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus,

00:11:28.140 people lose essentially the ability to be human.

00:11:31.580 They lose themselves.

00:11:32.400 Yeah, they lose themselves.

00:11:34.500 And the ultimate losing of oneself is having Alzheimer's,

00:11:38.000 which actually is the ultimate result of having a lifelong shutdown of the production of new nerve cells.

00:11:45.120 Well, the entertainment industry is a weird one.

00:11:46.700 Rather than producing films that inspire confidence and faith and national cohesion, which people want,

00:11:52.520 Hollywood goes out of its way, as if by design, to undermine all of that.

00:11:56.320 Our friends at Angel Studio are a glowing exception to that sad rule.

00:12:00.120 Angel makes movies and shows that are patriotic,

00:12:02.240 that are rooted in courage.

00:12:03.540 They promote faith, family, and freedom.

00:12:06.460 Films like Homestead about the importance

00:12:07.960 of protecting the people you love

00:12:09.340 in their lowest moments.

00:12:10.860 Or Green and Gold, which shows Perseverance,

00:12:13.540 Legacy, the American spirit.

00:12:15.600 All good things.

00:12:16.960 And last but not least,

00:12:18.020 Angel tells the biblical tale of David

00:12:19.820 and brings it completely to life.

00:13:20.860 Sure. Great.

00:13:22.220 May I ask, so you're saying that mRNA injections cause this?

00:13:26.360 Yeah, absolutely.

00:13:27.520 So, I mean, are people still being injected with this?

00:13:31.460 Yeah, it still happens.

00:13:32.740 I was in Florida four to five months ago.

00:13:35.140 Even though there's a ban on this somehow,

00:13:37.700 politically, it's realized how toxic the stuff is.

00:13:41.560 But when my wife and I were in Key West,

00:13:45.360 I think it was like in October, November.

00:13:47.860 I think it was November last year.

00:13:49.720 November being 2025,

00:13:52.460 because we don't know when people view this.

00:13:53.900 So, there were still advertisements here, you get the injection, you know, without any insurance problems or whatever, you know, on the streets.

00:14:03.420 I mean, I was astonished, you know, because...

00:14:06.940 One of the promises of the last election was we'd shut that down.

00:14:10.020 Yeah, it's still happening.

00:14:10.920 But it hasn't been shut down.

00:14:12.020 It's still happening, yeah.

00:14:13.060 And I wonder why.

00:14:15.320 I don't know.

00:14:16.000 What's the point of this?

00:14:18.380 I have no real clue.

00:14:20.700 I mean, it almost becomes conspiracy theory at that point.

00:14:24.720 I think it becomes a conspiracy reality.

00:14:26.620 Yeah, it's a reality, but the reasons behind it, I don't know, you know.

00:14:30.420 Why it is not forbidden, you know, completely.

00:14:32.840 I mean, the stuff is toxic.

00:14:34.680 I gave a talk at the Bundestag, you know, about five months ago in Germany.

00:14:39.740 I was invited by the AFD, and I gave a one-and-a-half-hour lecture.

00:14:45.720 And one hour lecture was at the end about the origin of the virus, you know, and I said it's a bioweapon by all means.

00:14:52.740 I mean, I'm a molecular geneticist.

00:14:54.420 I used my molecular genetic skills, you know, and that this virus could have evolved in nature is essentially impossible.

00:15:05.400 And the evidence I laid down, you know, it was paid for by the Pentagon, you know, by the DARPA.

00:15:11.060 bought money in the State Department

00:15:13.320 who actually put money in

00:15:15.320 EcoHealth Alliance, all these kind of

00:15:17.300 things that came together,

00:15:19.200 Barrett, all the labs in North Carolina.

00:15:21.960 I put this all together

00:15:23.160 in a lecture

00:15:24.420 and said this is

00:15:27.280 a bioweapon and

00:15:28.260 the real bioweapon is not the virus

00:15:31.340 itself, actually it's

00:15:33.400 the mRNA that people get injected,

00:15:35.500 you know, the modified mRNA

00:15:37.240 that doesn't get

00:15:38.240 get away so easily

00:15:40.280 because of the modifications.

00:15:42.560 And that's what I asked then

00:15:43.940 when I was in the Enquête Commission,

00:15:45.800 I asked the former

00:15:46.960 head, yeah,

00:15:49.640 Secretary of Health, you know,

00:15:51.320 in Germany, Jan Spahn,

00:15:54.160 I asked him, why did you

00:15:55.940 ask the, 0.64

00:15:58.600 yeah, the STIKO,

00:15:59.720 you know, that's the

00:16:01.580 an advisory committee

00:16:03.780 for

00:16:04.260 for

00:16:05.460 um um yeah vaccination they didn't say they said at the time don't do the children no no children

00:16:13.820 no no pregnant women nothing you know but the politics politicians wanted it and they pushed

00:16:19.620 it very hard so um so when i asked him why did you allow that because he published a book actually

00:16:25.880 the title of the book is we have to forgive each other that's the title of the book he published

00:16:30.200 a book about this time and in the book i was able to read before i questioned him publicly

00:16:35.100 I read that he was informed early 2020 that this might be coming from a bioweapon lab.

00:16:44.160 So he knew, or at least he had to have the suspicion that it was a bioweapon.

00:16:49.360 And still he insisted that two children should be injected.

00:16:52.600 So when he says we have to forgive each other, what would he be forgiving the rest of us for?

00:16:57.760 And he wanted, I think, forgiveness for himself.

00:17:01.100 Of course.

00:17:01.640 And so when I asked him, his response was not, okay, I didn't know or whatever.

00:17:08.820 No, he said, the parents wanted it.

00:17:12.920 And that was, I thought, wow, the parents wanted it?

00:17:16.280 I mean, for Christ's sake, you know.

00:17:18.700 I mean, the parents wanted it because you made them fear that the children might die when they get the infection.

00:17:26.260 You know, you're part of the narrative.

00:17:29.620 And then he said something very special.

00:17:31.640 which really made waves in Germany, unfortunately not in the main media, only in the alternative media, like Euros here maybe.

00:17:44.000 Yeah, that he said it was never the intention to save others.

00:17:48.460 The injections were never intended to save others, even though that was the main thing they told us.

00:17:53.460 Of course, if you love your grandparents, you'll take the shot.

00:17:55.660 Yeah, that's what he told us. And in this commission, publicly, in my questioning, when he questioned him, he said to me or said to the public, it was never the intention of the mRNA to help others, to protect others.

00:18:11.960 Then what was the purpose?

00:18:14.300 He never said. The problem is in this commission, you have only five minutes to question somebody. That means five minutes for question and answer. And that's it. Then it's over.

00:18:25.660 then he is released and there's no repercussion.

00:18:28.860 There's nothing happened afterwards.

00:18:31.340 You just have to forgive him.

00:18:32.620 Yeah, we just have to forgive him.

00:18:35.260 But when he was asked by my colleague, Tom Lawson,

00:18:40.780 he asked him in the second five minutes, he got,

00:18:44.380 okay, your book says we have to forgive others.

00:18:47.500 So there are so many doctors now who didn't do the injections.

00:18:53.740 Actually, they want to protect their patients by all means.

00:18:58.980 They are now incarcerated.

00:19:01.200 You know, they're in prison.

00:19:02.700 Shouldn't we just let them free?

00:19:05.580 And he simply said no.

00:19:08.800 So no forgiveness for others.

00:19:11.280 Not forgiveness for those who...

00:19:12.880 They should be in prison for not injecting their patients with poison.

00:19:16.380 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:19:17.800 Yeah, well, that's, I mean, that's who we're up against.

00:19:20.820 We're living in a strange world.

00:19:22.280 and

00:19:23.400 the strange thing is

00:19:26.540 the reason they

00:19:28.700 made this injection program

00:19:30.620 also besides lying to us

00:19:33.200 that it would help others

00:19:34.300 was that it would help ourselves

00:19:36.340 that we might not get this severe

00:19:38.720 COVID where we end up

00:19:41.400 with tubes

00:19:42.140 and getting artificial

00:19:44.840 respiration

00:19:46.680 and die essentially

00:19:48.000 50% was the death rates

00:19:49.520 And I published a book on this.

00:19:52.900 It's not here, but it's here in the Conspiracy Against Lithium.

00:19:56.600 I show the case that lithium is protecting our body against severe, what we call cytokine storms.

00:20:07.180 So, the overproduction of cytokines, cytokine storm.

00:20:10.260 And actually, people died from COVID or any other respiratory disease that goes back to the first cases of influenza, you know.

00:20:19.520 the common flu, people can die.

00:20:21.660 And when they die, they usually die

00:20:23.380 based on the fact that the immune system is overreacting.

00:20:27.960 One of the reasons it overreacts

00:20:29.420 and why all these diseases happen in winter

00:20:32.300 is that we have a vitamin D deficiency.

00:20:34.200 It's quite easily explained.

00:20:36.220 But the cytokine storm,

00:20:38.080 you can end immediately if you give people lithium.

00:20:41.080 Lithium is the natural antidote

00:20:42.720 against an overreacting immune system.

00:20:46.020 And it was already published case reports in 2020

00:20:48.860 in August, that if your patients have severe COVID, that they have to go to the hospital,

00:20:54.240 if you give them lithium, essentially the cytokine storm ends immediately and the people

00:21:00.300 are saved.

00:21:00.680 So that would have saved thousands of lives in the United States.

00:21:03.300 It would have saved everybody because nobody would have gotten the injection.

00:21:07.300 The whole mRNA program would have been for nothing.

00:21:10.420 There wouldn't have been any reason to do that.

00:21:12.280 And when was this known?

00:21:13.140 It was published, six case reports in, I think it was August 2020.

00:21:18.860 And then the same group did a peer-reviewed random control trial, standard pharmaceutical, you know, way to test drugs.

00:21:28.780 In this case, they used lithium.

00:21:31.580 I think they gave the people two times 40 milligrams a day.

00:21:36.140 And the control group got the standard treatment and the interference group, the one who got the lithium, got standard treatment plus lithium.

00:21:46.780 And the outcome was dramatic.

00:21:48.680 They were out of the hospital in half the time.

00:21:51.020 Nobody had to go to intensive care.

00:21:53.200 Nobody died compared to the control group.

00:21:56.220 And it was all known.

00:21:57.540 But the same goes for vitamin D.

00:21:58.940 If you had severe COVID, it was already published in September 2020 that if you had severe COVID, you have to raise the vitamin D level in your blood.

00:22:10.020 But the vitamin D in our blood that we measure is the vitamin D prohormone.

00:22:15.240 It's 25-hydroxy vitamin D.

00:22:17.860 So, this is what we measure in the blood.

00:22:20.420 It's not vitamin D, we measure what is converted to a pro-hormone.

00:22:24.600 So, vitamin D we produce in our skin is converted in the liver into pro-hormone, and that's

00:22:29.620 the storage form of vitamin D and also the form we measure in the blood.

00:22:34.560 And this is immediately, you know, functioning as a hormone, as vitamin D hormone in the

00:22:40.760 cells and shutting down the cytokine storm.

00:22:43.400 It's also important that we fight viruses.

00:22:50.060 So, a study was done in Cordoba in, I think it was published in September 2020, where they randomized a group of patients that were in a hospital based on COVID, severe respiratory disease, cytokine storm.

00:23:06.160 They put them in two different groups and one group got the vitamin D pro-hormon, the 25-hydroxy vitamin D, not vitamin D, the pro-hormon form, and the other group just got standard treatment.

00:23:18.460 And the effect was the likelihood of having to go to intensive care, that the disease essentially worsens, was 25-fold reduced, 25-fold.

00:23:31.580 That's incredible.

00:23:32.280 And it was all known at the end of 2020, before the injection program with the mRNA rolled out.

00:23:40.000 Now, we care about supporting companies whose values align with ours.

00:23:43.420 We do not want to shill for sleazy companies.

00:23:45.960 It is better to give business to like-minded Americans than people who hate us.

00:23:49.300 That's our rule.

00:23:50.680 And that's one of the reasons we like Charity Mobile.

00:23:52.660 When you make the switch to Charity Mobile, the company sends 5% of your monthly price plan to pro-life, pro-family charities of your choice.

00:24:00.940 that's millions of dollars and counting

00:24:03.180 sent to pro-family philanthropies.

00:24:05.040 Okay, you're probably thinking that sounds great,

00:24:06.460 but Charity Mobile must be super expensive to pay for that.

00:24:09.620 But no, they've literally never raised

00:24:12.340 their mobile plan prices

00:24:13.680 and no plan exceeds $50 per month.

00:24:16.400 Charity Mobile is a good company

00:25:06.460 How many people have gone to prison since February of 2020 for killing all these people?

00:25:11.720 Do you know?

00:25:11.960 I think it's close to zero, isn't it?

00:25:13.560 Right around zero in that range?

00:25:15.000 Yeah.

00:25:15.840 Yeah.

00:25:16.320 I don't think any of these governments have legitimacy at this point.

00:25:19.120 No, it's not.

00:25:20.200 And lithium is very important in this case because lithium, the mechanism, how lithium works,

00:25:26.280 is a mechanism that is as old as life on this planet.

00:25:30.580 Can you just stop right there?

00:25:32.540 Lithium.

00:25:33.340 Okay, so that's the main topic here.

00:25:35.480 I'm interested in learning about lithium.

00:25:37.120 I associate it with batteries.

00:25:38.840 Are you talking about the same lithium?

00:25:40.560 Yeah.

00:25:41.060 Actually, the lithium you find in your mobile phone

00:25:44.420 is pretty much the amount of lithium

00:25:46.500 we need for one year as a human.

00:25:49.820 So my recommended daily allowance,

00:25:52.180 you know, is recommended by me.

00:25:53.860 It's provisional because usually you need a state or a department to acknowledge what the amount is.

00:26:00.040 But the amount of lithium that humans need is approximately one milligram per day.

00:26:05.300 So one thousandth of a gram, one milligram.

00:26:08.420 It's almost, you can't hardly see it on a spoon, you know, it's so little.

00:26:12.640 So just to start at the very beginning, lithium is an element?

00:26:16.140 It's an element.

00:26:16.740 It's actually one of the first elements that the universum produced, if we believe in a Big Bang or whatever, but it co-developed in the universum with helium and hydrogen and lithium and helium.

00:26:40.680 That was the three first elements that ever were produced in the universe.

00:26:44.880 And that's why you find lithium everywhere.

00:26:47.720 Lithium is everywhere.

00:26:49.540 That's the reason why it's called actually lithium.

00:26:52.040 Lithium comes from lithia.

00:26:55.300 That's the Greek word for stone.

00:26:57.360 Because every stone people analyze, there's lithium in there.

00:27:01.000 Not much maybe, but a little.

00:27:02.960 So it's the one element you find everywhere.

00:27:06.040 Is it in fruits, vegetables, meats?

00:27:09.640 It's everywhere.

00:27:10.420 In our diet?

00:27:11.200 It's everywhere.

00:27:11.880 It's in our diet.

00:27:12.620 It's everywhere.

00:27:13.220 But people realized at the end of the 19th century, when in the mid of the 19th century, lithium was discovered as an element.

00:27:21.880 So the chemistry was so far advanced.

00:27:24.120 We knew that lithium exists.

00:27:25.820 This is how it looks like, what's the way it is and everything.

00:27:29.840 And people realized at the time that when there were springs somewhere, you know, springs where people went to because they felt better when they drink the water of this particular spring, holy springs, you know, everywhere scattered in the world, that the denominator, the common factor of all these springs was lithium.

00:27:53.520 The content of lithium was higher than in other water.

00:27:56.700 So when the lithium content is higher, a little bit higher,

00:27:59.280 then you feel immediately that it helps your brain

00:28:02.240 because apparently you have a deficiency.

00:28:04.720 So once the deficiency is resolved, your brain works better again.

00:28:09.200 And there were studies out from the 1970s.

00:28:14.780 They concluded already that if you have the luck, for example, in Texas,

00:28:19.480 you live in an area where a little bit more lithium is in the tap water

00:28:22.560 than in other areas of Texas.

00:28:24.780 And those studies have been done all over the world, meanwhile.

00:28:27.480 Then the likelihood that you develop Alzheimer's is reduced, that you commit suicide is reduced,

00:28:32.900 that you are admitted to a mental hospital is reduced, that you get killed is reduced.

00:28:38.320 The murder rate depends directly on the level of lithium in the tap water.

00:28:43.360 Really?

00:28:43.840 Yeah, because what I call the mental immune system, which resides in the hippocampus, is dependent on lithium.

00:28:49.800 do you think people are receiving less lithium than they once did yeah absolutely in my book i

00:28:57.380 describe the original not only the origin of the man of our human of humanity so humanity relies

00:29:05.540 on our ability to think to put ourselves in the shoes of others to be social animals in a way you

00:29:11.760 know that we are which we can socialize that we want peace you know we don't want to we don't want

00:29:18.020 war we want peace we want the best for our kids and war is not good for our kids yeah so i've

00:29:23.360 noticed yeah absolutely so so we all have a have an immune system but we know the immune system

00:29:28.640 i call it the physical immune system which fights pathogenic microorganisms that's what we call the

00:29:34.480 our immune system but to this i added another immune system a term i call it mental immune

00:29:40.180 system this one doesn't fight microorganisms at least not directly indirectly because maybe we

00:29:47.340 think about measures of, you know, keeping them away, but it fights microorganisms, pathogenic

00:29:54.440 microorganisms, macro meaning big, microorganisms like Bill Gates, maybe, you know, I mean,

00:30:00.360 joking, yeah, but people who do us harm, you know, we have to protect our family from these

00:30:07.480 pathogenic microorganisms.

00:30:09.620 Yes, I know some.

00:30:10.640 Yeah, exactly.

00:30:11.740 And that's what the mental immune system is for. 0.70

00:30:14.160 That's why we have a mental immune system.

00:30:16.160 And the mental immune system, as I was able to show, resides in the hippocampus, in the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus, because these are the neuronal correlate, as I already laid out in the beginning of our talk.

00:30:27.520 They are for curiosity, for the ability to think and, you know, to change perspective, you know, that we find, you know, the ability to solutions, which is not just sending weapons, you know, but actually, yeah, diplomatic ways to solve problems, not only on a political level, but also in families, you know, with friends.

00:30:52.320 So what makes us human is the mental immune system.

00:30:55.300 So what's in your toothpaste? If you're using the brand you grew up with, you probably don't want to know. The ingredients likely include fluoride, something called SLS, glycerin, foaming agents. It's a chemical cocktail. Van Mann's toothpaste is different. Their miracle tooth powder is changing everything, and people are ditching traditional toothpaste filled with chemicals by the thousands.

00:31:17.400 Fan Man's tooth powder uses ingredients with the same mineral structure as your teeth

00:31:21.140 that remineralizes them and strengthens your enamel naturally.

00:31:24.920 No fluoride at all and totally edible.

00:31:27.440 You could put it on toast.

00:31:29.260 Not that you'd want to, but you could.

00:31:31.200 People who use it report whiter teeth, less plaque.

00:31:33.420 They wake up without that gross film on their gums.

00:31:35.960 And here's the amazing part.

00:31:37.620 Vivid dreams are back.

00:31:39.920 You dream clearly when you stop coating your mouth in fluoride every night.

00:31:43.060 Did you know that?

00:31:43.720 Pretty amazing.

00:31:44.300 Tells you a lot.

00:32:01.220 I wonder if the uptake rate for the mRNA shot is higher in Congress in the United States than the overall population.

00:32:09.760 It's possible.

00:32:10.660 I don't know.

00:32:11.100 I would bet about 100% of U.S. senators took the COVID, the mRNA shot.

00:32:18.640 Or they pretended to do it. 0.54

00:32:20.660 I hope so.

00:32:21.600 I hope they did.

00:32:22.660 Yeah.

00:32:23.440 Well, I hope so too.

00:32:25.000 But that would be actually worse because they might have pretended because they knew it's toxic.

00:32:30.420 Yeah.

00:32:31.240 Otherwise, you wouldn't have to pretend.

00:32:32.680 You would actually take it.

00:32:33.880 Right.

00:32:34.120 Well, they're not serving in the worst.

00:32:35.260 So I don't know what these people did, but I have my suspicion that people who propagated the stuff knew it's toxic.

00:32:43.680 Of course they did.

00:32:44.320 And if part of the propagation is to tell the public I got the shot, I'm sure they didn't get it, you know.

00:32:52.500 It's also evil.

00:32:53.700 But the mental immune system, I asked myself the question, when in the history of humans evolved the mental immune system?

00:33:02.240 now from the evolutionary perspective.

00:33:04.860 And from the evolutionary perspective,

00:33:06.580 it evolved when there was a drought in Africa,

00:33:12.000 a drought of a span of about 70,000 years.

00:33:15.840 And it started about 195,000 years ago,

00:33:21.180 roughly 200,000 years ago,

00:33:22.620 there was an ice age,

00:33:24.280 a very severe ice age lasting very long.

00:33:27.440 And essentially the mountains of ice

00:33:30.680 were accumulating on the North Pole and the South Pole

00:33:34.660 and Africa went dry.

00:33:37.820 And life in Africa on the mainland was essentially not possible.

00:33:41.300 So only a few people survived.

00:33:43.660 We believe actually that maybe only a few hundred people

00:33:46.460 or humans survived at the coast in South Africa.

00:33:51.360 Actually, the spot, which I described very intensively

00:33:54.860 in my book, The Algae Oil Revolution,

00:33:57.000 became a world in heritage site in 2024.

00:34:01.400 for that for that reason and here they found fruits fruits of the of the ocean you know i call

00:34:10.680 them the fruits of wisdom you know and that's our muscles muscles were at the coast they were like

00:34:16.120 in abundance and if you check out what muscles contain they contain pretty much everything the

00:34:22.120 human brain needs they are just the perfect muscle shellfish the shellfish yeah they are just the

00:34:28.120 perfect and they were there in in quantities so these few hundred people couldn't even you know

00:34:34.120 think about eating everything they were just growing faster than they could eat it so that

00:34:39.480 completely changed the lifestyle and it had an impact on the brain so they got all the omega-3

00:34:45.720 fatty acids in quantities uh but also in what they get got and what they didn't get probably in the

00:34:52.200 Inland Africa was lithium.

00:34:54.380 Lithium is part of the muscle.

00:34:56.400 So, to put it this way, like iodine.

00:34:58.760 Iodine is very important for the brain.

00:35:01.240 We know what happens when you have an iodine deficiency.

00:35:04.740 And iodine is really not so easy to find. 1.00

00:35:08.440 It causes mental retardation, lower IQ. 1.00

00:35:10.140 Yeah, exactly. 1.00

00:35:10.980 Actually, it's not actually retardation. 1.00

00:35:12.880 You don't develop a brain. 1.00

00:35:14.560 You don't have problem to develop one. 1.00

00:35:16.060 So you are retarded in a way, 1.00

00:35:17.400 but retarded means you have lost something, 1.00

00:35:20.560 but you don't even develop a brain. 0.92

00:35:22.200 when you have a lack of iodine in your childhood.

00:35:26.580 It was the most severe mental issue that we know of, you know.

00:35:31.840 So anyway, in geologically old, you know, areas,

00:35:36.380 you know, like in the Alps, for example,

00:35:38.880 or in the mountains somewhere,

00:35:41.400 if they're not volcanic, then there is a lack of iodine

00:35:45.200 because it was washed out over the millions of years

00:35:47.700 into the ocean, you know.

00:35:49.140 It's washed out and the soil doesn't contain much iodine.

00:35:52.140 And the same happens with lithium.

00:35:53.840 Lithium is also washed out.

00:35:55.740 So in salt water, in ocean water,

00:35:58.140 you find 100 times higher level of lithium

00:36:00.500 than in sweet water.

00:36:02.880 Really?

00:36:03.640 Yeah, it's 100 times higher.

00:36:05.180 And mussels or shellfish

00:36:07.460 accumulates lithium by three to fivefold.

00:36:10.220 So if you eat the meat of mussels or shellfish,

00:36:13.160 then you have an intake of about one to two milligram.

00:36:17.100 I calculated this in the book,

00:36:18.780 of one to two milligram a day.

00:36:20.400 and that was essentially our natural food

00:36:23.720 for tens of thousands of years.

00:36:25.900 And that was a time when the human brain...

00:36:27.940 Shellfish, not fish.

00:36:29.600 Shellfish.

00:36:30.620 Fish also has lithium, of course,

00:36:33.420 but only...

00:36:34.080 Can I say, now I'm bragging,

00:36:35.200 I know nothing about health,

00:36:36.200 I've always loved shellfish and dogs.

00:36:38.520 And you have just affirmed both of my choices.

00:36:41.660 Yeah, I'm very thankful that I did this.

00:36:45.560 I'm happy to make you happy.

00:36:47.060 I love having my eccentric choices ratified by science.

00:36:53.240 Yeah, the only problem with shellfish, of course, if you eat it too much,

00:36:56.040 is that it not only accumulates lithium, it accumulates everything what is in the ocean.

00:37:00.680 Well, it's the dirtiest thing you can eat.

00:37:02.280 Yeah, exactly.

00:37:03.260 And that's why I came up with an alternative.

00:37:06.300 Because there's not enough shellfish on this planet to feed everybody

00:37:09.580 so that he can have his quantity of lithium that he needs.

00:37:13.460 Because the problem is when nature gives you something for tens of thousands of years, then the body usually starts to use what he gets.

00:37:23.560 And at a certain time, he starts to put his genetics around it.

00:37:29.980 And so what was somehow a free offer becomes a necessity after a certain time.

00:37:37.080 So we got used to have lithium in our diet.

00:37:40.040 and now it's gone

00:37:41.480 because we moved away from the coast

00:37:43.760 we are inland

00:37:44.860 we are in areas where there's less lithium

00:37:46.680 we don't recognize that there's a deficiency

00:37:49.200 because all other people behave the same

00:37:51.600 you know

00:37:52.460 everybody is a little bit less friendly

00:37:54.560 as they could be

00:37:55.420 everybody is a little bit more irritable

00:37:57.420 as they could be

00:37:58.300 everybody has more

00:38:00.360 the risk of being

00:38:01.860 having expressed anger

00:38:04.400 you know

00:38:05.180 we are less

00:38:06.000 able maybe to

00:38:08.160 find a peaceful

00:38:10.420 way. Actually, my strongest

00:38:12.360 belief is that the written history

00:38:14.340 of our culture and of the human

00:38:16.460 culture for the last 6,

00:38:18.460 7, 8, 10,000 years

00:38:20.140 is the history of

00:38:22.560 a lack of lithium.

00:38:25.220 Because

00:38:25.820 people moved inside, had these cities

00:38:28.520 and they didn't eat shellfish

00:38:30.400 anymore and if they were not lucky

00:38:32.520 enough that lithium was

00:38:34.640 in their groundwater where they had their

00:38:36.580 city then they lived in it with a reduced amount of lithium that were able to ingest and if you

00:38:43.800 have a reduced amount of lithium that has severe consequences on your brain function particularly

00:38:49.180 on your mental immune system it's interesting that you say that because i mean coastal cultures

00:38:55.200 are famously and provably more evolved flexible cosmopolitan prosperous um you know than inland

00:39:05.740 culture i mean yeah right there was no real city at riad 200 years ago there was jetta on the coast

00:39:12.640 and that's true and like every there are a lot of reasons for that but do you think that's one of

00:39:16.000 them yeah actually i rechecked uh one of my first books this has not been translated in english yet

00:39:21.080 but one of my first books i worked on okinawa i know why people get older there why they have

00:39:26.100 reduced levels of alzheimer's uh all these kind of things and uh when i wrote on this book the term

00:39:33.100 blue zone you know was not known but meanwhile the term blue zone means areas in the in our planet

00:39:39.360 where people get old but also stay healthy when they age and these were called blue zones and so

00:39:45.800 I checked from my book the conspiracy against lithium all the blue zones and there are lithium

00:39:49.820 rich areas and it makes a lot of sense I so I gave a talk about two years ago I actually sent

00:39:59.500 you an email with a link and you said, I remember you giving me an email back saying, it was

00:40:05.340 Signal or whatever, saying it's great that you were able to give this talk. I was invited by

00:40:10.940 the foreign minister of Switzerland on the International Corporation Forum. It's a conference

00:40:16.500 where about a hundred nations took part all over the world. Of course, it's very closely linked to

00:40:22.700 the to the world economy forum so so for me it was like walking into the into an area where i didn't

00:40:30.620 feel very happy my book the exhausted brain was the reason i was invited because there i explained

00:40:38.640 what the brain needs to think and of course what to think peace so they invited me to give the

00:40:44.240 keynote at this event in 15 minutes i have had to answer the question what the brain needs to think

00:40:50.980 piece okay and uh well it was just a few weeks after i was here and then our interview you know

00:41:00.820 you published it and they realized that i have different ideas what the brain needs that i was

00:41:07.380 not a friend of the mRNA injections and so forth so they couldn't uninvite me again you know it was

00:41:14.020 was not, would it have not been a very polite.

00:41:16.600 But they tried, of course,

00:41:18.100 to reduce the amount of slides I'm using, you know.

00:41:23.500 They actually came to me five minutes before my speech

00:41:26.680 because in the evening I shut down the computer.

00:41:29.360 I send them the speech, you know, the slides.

00:41:32.980 But I shut down the computer.

00:41:34.060 I shut down my mobile phone.

00:41:36.800 I came very late to my talk in the morning.

00:41:39.200 It was the first talk, the keynote.

00:41:41.460 And they came to me, rushing to me,

00:41:43.000 Michael, we have to cut out 50% of the slides, you know, 50%, because the slides contain a couple of

00:41:49.780 information, like, for example, the function of the brain does not, the mental immune system,

00:41:56.020 which we required for thinking, and thinking is a prerequisite for thinking peace, of course.

00:42:01.300 You can't think peace if you can't think, obviously. So, if you want to be able to think,

00:42:06.800 real thinking, type two thinking, system two thinking, we need the mental immune system.

00:42:11.040 The mental immune system doesn't work if you inject mRNA with a spike protein.

00:42:15.260 So this slide they didn't like.

00:42:16.620 I also showed that with vitamin D, the problem would have been over and that would be healthy for your brain.

00:42:22.680 But one of my last slides I showed was that I want to make it my goal to prove that lithium is essential for the mental immune system.

00:42:32.420 And at that moment, I was a little bit fearful because the meeting took place in Basel.

00:42:39.000 you know, and that is essentially the center of the pharmaceutical industry in Switzerland.

00:42:43.280 It is, yeah.

00:42:44.060 Yeah, and I was there and said, I want to show that lithium is essential.

00:42:48.360 And the proof is now in my book, The Conspiracy Against Lithium.

00:42:51.720 It's the first proof ever that lithium is an essential trace element,

00:42:57.280 meaning that if you have a complete leg, you wouldn't be able to live.

00:43:01.460 If you reduce it in animals, for example, it reduces their fertility.

00:43:05.520 the newborns

00:43:07.960 the ones which are born

00:43:09.100 are smaller

00:43:09.760 the ones

00:43:10.500 many don't survive

00:43:12.360 the first few months

00:43:13.360 if they have a lack of lithium

00:43:15.200 not a complete lack

00:43:16.440 just a reduction

00:43:17.200 a complete lack

00:43:17.900 is very difficult to achieve

00:43:19.120 because

00:43:19.620 lithium is everywhere

00:43:20.920 but you can

00:43:21.700 of course

00:43:22.440 create artificially

00:43:24.200 a deficiency in animals

00:43:25.800 and has detrimental effects

00:43:27.260 how would you create

00:43:28.340 a deficiency in people?

00:43:30.600 in people

00:43:30.980 we have already a deficiency

00:43:32.480 we live already a deficiency

00:43:34.520 So, if you assume you need one milligram of lithium a day, which is the dose where you have the lowest suicide rates, the highest longevity, so if your tap water has, let's say, 500 microgram of lithium, that's half a milligram per liter, it's like a quarter gallon, then if you live in an area where this is the case, then you have a longer life with less diseases.

00:44:04.060 You also have a much reduced risk of Alzheimer's.

00:44:07.120 We already discussed that.

00:44:08.080 So longevity, Alzheimer's risk, all depend on the amount of lithium you have in your tap water.

00:44:14.820 And this is, of course, only in certain areas of the world, but not everywhere.

00:44:18.640 I assume 90 to 95% of the human population suffers from lithium deficiency.

00:44:25.080 And this is severe because the mental deficiency syndrome, which I essentially termed it, I termed the lithium deficiency disease, mental immune deficiency syndrome.

00:44:39.120 And the end result is Alzheimer's, but it starts with autism.

00:44:43.700 Autism, attention deficit disorders, schizophrenia.

00:44:49.020 Actually, the first one who mentioned in the history of our culture that lithium might be essential was John Cade.

00:44:57.480 And John Cade published in 1949 a paper where he treated people with high doses of lithium, really high doses, for bipolar disorder.

00:45:08.940 And he found out that bipolar disorder is a mix of a change of depression and mania.

00:45:17.420 But he said that mania was primarily affected by giving lithium.

00:45:22.760 It was reduced.

00:45:24.040 And he assumed that the effect was a strong mania and on bipolar disorder as general,

00:45:29.740 that a lack of lithium in your childhood might be the cause of bipolar disorder.

00:45:34.120 So, if you have a lack in your diet in lithium in your childhood, that might be a cause, meaning, and that was his conclusion in the paper in 1949, meaning that lithium must be an essential trace element.

00:45:50.300 Because if it has effects on your brain, it must be essential if it's lacking.

00:45:55.240 And in the same year, 1949, the FDA made a prohibition on lithium as a supplement.

00:46:03.180 You are not allowed to supplement anymore.

00:46:05.280 That was happening in 1949.

00:46:07.200 Why?

00:46:07.600 On purpose.

00:46:09.080 Actually, that's the conspiracy I'm talking about in the title.

00:46:12.500 Three centers in the United States, medical centers,

00:46:16.740 doctors gave their patients,

00:46:19.560 patients which suffer from heart disease,

00:46:21.860 congestive heart failure, you know,

00:46:23.500 very severely sick.

00:46:25.000 They said to their patients,

00:46:26.060 hey, you are not allowed to eat salt anymore.

00:46:29.520 Salt is not good for your heart.

00:46:31.060 So, they removed the sodium chloride, which is salt, from their diet.

00:46:35.960 But of course, then the food doesn't taste very good.

00:46:38.560 So, they gave them, instead of sodium chloride, they gave them lithium chloride.

00:46:43.400 Now, they didn't take one milligram of lithium.

00:46:45.840 Of course, it has to taste salty.

00:46:48.020 They took grams of it.

00:46:50.260 At the time, it was already published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1913 by a self-test from a doctor

00:46:58.380 that these amounts of lithium are highly toxic.

00:47:03.160 Highly toxic.

00:47:04.240 They can kill you.

00:47:05.600 And that's what they did.

00:47:06.380 They gave these patients high doses of lithium

00:47:09.360 in not milligram, but gram.

00:47:12.160 Can you imagine something that is essential?

00:47:14.200 In one dose, you give it a thousand fold higher.

00:47:17.360 What will happen?

00:47:19.160 Think about water.

00:47:20.220 Water, like half a gallon of water might be healthy.

00:47:23.220 You should drink water every day.

00:47:25.140 But now make it a thousand fold.

00:47:27.200 how much water

00:47:28.720 I have to drink 0.60

00:47:29.200 you die from drinking water 0.96

00:47:30.720 oh yes you can

00:47:31.680 you drown 0.93

00:47:32.220 yeah

00:47:32.640 so everything

00:47:33.400 you increase dramatically

00:47:34.660 everything that's good for you

00:47:36.140 you increase

00:47:36.880 it becomes toxic

00:47:37.780 I've noticed

00:47:38.420 yeah

00:47:38.900 and the same goes for

00:47:40.540 been there

00:47:40.740 and the same goes for lithium

00:47:43.140 and the lithium

00:47:44.200 killed people

00:47:45.240 at that time

00:47:46.240 and they published

00:47:47.220 in spring

00:47:47.820 1949

00:47:49.160 three papers

00:47:50.400 in the Journal of the

00:47:51.140 Medical Association

00:47:52.680 JAMA

00:47:53.340 or JAMA

00:47:54.860 JAMA

00:47:55.460 yeah JAMA

00:47:56.240 They published three papers back-to-back, apparently independent of, they called it in the Time magazine, accidental food poisoning.

00:48:04.340 But in the paper, when you read them, and I found them, and they are in the book, I found out that these were done, that was done purposely.

00:48:12.360 These people were given kind of a clinical trial.

00:48:15.000 We wanted to find out how much lithium people can accept.

00:48:19.200 And they monitored how these people died.

00:48:22.160 And then they told the FDA, said to Time Magazine,

00:48:26.620 oh, we wanted to actually shut down the supplementation of lithium

00:48:30.220 as a trace element anyway, because we want to develop a drug with it.

00:48:35.420 And that was what happened in 1949.

00:48:39.680 You might know 7-Up, of course, you know.

00:48:41.620 Yes.

00:48:42.300 7-Up has its name from lithium.

00:48:44.280 It was lithiated soda.

00:48:46.380 I think the formula came out in 1929.

00:48:49.860 and one glass of seven up

00:48:54.140 had exactly one milligram of lithium

00:48:56.440 and seven stands for

00:48:58.840 the atomic weight of lithium.

00:49:00.460 It's seven.

00:49:01.900 And up means upregulation of the mood.

00:49:04.140 So you drank your lithiated soda,

00:49:07.300 which was called seven up

00:49:08.520 and you had essentially

00:49:09.740 an upregulation of the mood

00:49:11.520 and because you remedied your deficiency.

00:49:16.420 But that was, of course,

00:49:17.860 a big thing selling this stuff

00:49:19.580 And many followed, even Coca-Cola started putting lithium in their drink.

00:49:24.820 But in 1949, that was prohibited and they had to change the formulation.

00:49:31.440 So from 1949 on, the whole world essentially banned lithium.

00:49:36.020 In Europe, there's still a ban.

00:49:37.820 Here in America, in the United States, you can buy lithium because there was a reform of the FDA in 1994, I guess,

00:49:46.320 where the F and the D separated somehow.

00:49:49.880 So there is more relation on drugs than on food

00:49:53.160 and supplements with lithium is food.

00:49:57.140 And here the responsibility is for those who produce it.

00:50:01.100 If you bring it on the market, if somebody dies, you are responsible.

00:50:04.840 But nobody died so far.

00:50:06.280 So for the last 35, 40 years,

00:50:08.060 it is possible to buy lithium as a supplement in America.

00:50:12.120 but the ban from the FDA from 1949 still persists in Europe so in whole Europe it's not allowed

00:50:20.040 to receive lithium or to get lithium as a supplement you are not allowed to put it in

00:50:25.920 in a supplement to actually get this one milligram so I ever gave a speech about half a year ago it 0.90

00:50:32.500 was in June 2025 I gave a speech at the European Parliament to end this stupidity to end this 0.75

00:50:39.500 because I was able to prove in my book 0.85

00:50:42.560 that about 90% of all diseases,

00:50:45.440 which we call chronic diseases,

00:50:46.980 90% of chronic disease,

00:50:48.240 the major market of the pharmaceutical industry

00:50:51.360 is based on chronic inflammation.

00:50:54.340 And the natural antidote of chronic inflammation

00:50:56.760 is lithium in your food.

00:50:58.840 So if you give people lithium,

00:51:01.620 these chronic inflammations would reside

00:51:04.040 and the drug market, of course, would shut down.

00:51:06.600 But this is not what the European Commission wants.

00:51:11.940 So I'm essentially running against walls when I try to talk to Ursula von der Leyen.

00:51:18.360 Well, you're not the only one.

00:51:20.280 Yeah, I assume.

00:51:22.580 I assume.

00:51:23.200 But that was the main reason I came here to the United States.

00:51:26.240 That's one of the main reasons I talked to you here. 0.95

00:51:28.160 because the Maha movement will only be really successful

00:51:33.580 if everything that the brain needs is given to the people.

00:51:37.760 So people need enough omega-3 fatty acids,

00:51:40.980 they need enough of lithium,

00:51:42.780 they need enough all vitamins, all essential trace elements,

00:51:46.740 everything is needed.

00:51:48.400 I call the requirement is based on a law of nature

00:51:52.860 and this law is quite simple, it's called the law of the minimum.

00:51:56.280 So, the law of the minimum was discovered in 1828 by a German agricultural scientist, and he discovered that when you want to grow some vegetables, whatever, on a field, the vegetables have some requirements.

00:52:18.060 And for example, if phosphate is missing, you can give the plant as much potassium as you want, it will not grow.

00:52:26.280 you have to give the plant what it needs.

00:52:29.540 And this is the law of the minimum.

00:52:31.420 It's a very important law because it tells people in agriculture

00:52:34.940 that they don't waste material on their fields that the plant doesn't need

00:52:40.940 and only give the plant exactly that, what is missing in the soil.

00:52:46.420 And it goes about growing something.

00:52:49.320 Now, what is growing in our brain is the new cells in the hippocampus.

00:52:52.960 So we can apply the same law there.

00:52:55.100 The law of the minimum applies to every living being, in particular to our mental immune system.

00:53:01.140 So, if you apply the law of the minimum to our mental immune system, then if something is missing, it will not work.

00:53:10.120 You can eat as much meat, a protein, as long as there is no lithium in the brain, your brain will suffer.

00:53:17.520 As long as there are not enough omega-3 fatty acids, the brain will suffer.

00:53:21.540 and the ideal volume of the hippocampus

00:53:24.960 which gives you essentially the best mental immune system

00:53:28.240 with the best growth rate is

00:53:31.060 and here maybe I have to give you some facts

00:53:34.260 the hippocampus can grow by a few percent each year

00:53:37.380 by volume by a few percent each year

00:53:39.560 because he has the ability to grow new nerve cells

00:53:41.860 and they are required that our mental immune system functions

00:53:45.120 so they grow and the hippocampus will grow

00:53:48.700 But in modern societies, there's not a growth of the hippocampus, there's a shrinkage.

00:53:54.520 The shrinkage is an average 1.4% per year by volume.

00:53:59.220 So after 30, 40 years, your hippocampus is only half the size it was when you were 25.

00:54:04.960 And what are the effects of that?

00:54:06.700 How would you notice that in another person?

00:54:09.360 You notice it because he's mentally not flexible anymore.

00:54:13.000 Not flexible anymore.

00:54:14.240 Yeah, he reiterates, you know, common phrases.

00:54:18.800 You can talk to him, you can say hello to him.

00:54:21.280 He will respond friendly, maybe, if he's a friendly person.

00:54:24.480 But you realize very quickly that you cannot go into a discussion with him about anything.

00:54:29.840 Because he will shut down.

00:54:30.740 His mental immune system is not functioning.

00:54:33.360 He's caught in the past.

00:54:34.680 He's caught in the past.

00:54:36.100 And even this past will diminish.

00:54:38.380 Because the long-term consequence of a shrinking hippocampus is Alzheimer's.

00:54:43.240 Actually, it's a biomarker for Alzheimer's.

00:54:45.800 The smaller your hippocampus, the closer you are to develop the disease.

00:54:51.520 So, we have a society already that's not on the people that have Alzheimer's.

00:54:56.100 If Alzheimer's starts in the age of 20, yeah, if your hippocampus is shrinking,

00:55:01.220 actually, even in kids, they don't develop the hippocampus the size they should. 0.92

00:55:05.420 So, the deficiencies start already in the womb of the woman, you know.

00:55:09.020 I mean, they start when you are essentially concepted, you know.

00:55:13.560 At conception, you grow into an environment where things are missing.

00:55:19.060 Just to give you an example, if omega-3 fatty acids are missing,

00:55:22.460 you cannot build synapses in between your nerve cells.

00:55:25.100 50% of the fatty acids in your synapses, which are important for connecting your brain cells,

00:55:32.440 important for our mental functioning, consist of omega-3 fatty acids.

00:55:37.060 Now, what happens if you don't eat them?

00:55:39.020 Our body can't produce them.

00:55:41.840 So, and the biggest hippocampal volume we have when you have an omega-3 index, it's

00:55:47.260 a measurement of how much omega-3 fatty acids your body has, is 11%.

00:55:52.160 11% is the ideal.

00:55:53.700 This is what the placenta, for example, tries to give the child that is growing up.

00:55:59.040 11%.

00:55:59.600 2% is not, you cannot live with 2%.

00:56:03.600 Below 2% was never measured anywhere in the world

00:56:06.300 because 2% is the minimum that is required for life.

00:56:10.780 But of course, it's not a happy life.

00:56:12.680 So 2% is the minimum.

00:56:14.140 11% is ideal. 1.00

00:56:15.960 What do Americans have? 0.96

00:56:17.580 4%.

00:56:18.460 Children, we have children maybe with only 2.5% to 3%.

00:56:22.660 So what are the characteristics of a society

00:56:25.780 in which most people have lithium deficiencies

00:56:28.740 and stunted hippocampuses?

00:56:32.380 like what how do people behave like what are the signs that your whole society is suffering from

00:56:38.060 this well they they just behave there's trained behavior of course if you are trained to be a

00:56:44.700 friendly person you know say hello to everybody will do that but practically speaking your mental

00:56:49.980 immune system is dysfunctional and if it's dysfunctional you are not as curious as you

00:56:54.460 should be yes you have not the resilience that you should have you are not as compassion with others

00:57:00.860 because you cannot put yourself into their shoes

00:57:03.520 or see the world through their eyes,

00:57:05.380 which makes it difficult to negotiate.

00:57:07.500 So you're not as peaceful as you can, you know?

00:57:11.320 You are not as peaceful as you can.

00:57:12.620 I'm recognizing some of these signs, doctor.

00:57:15.080 Okay, I hope not by somebody close by.

00:57:18.500 No, just, but if all of a sudden you look around

00:57:20.880 and people are not interested in what just happened,

00:57:24.240 like how can you not want to know how that happened?

00:57:26.600 Yeah.

00:57:27.640 And if people do seem like they have less love for each other and less compassion for each other and are not capable of seeing other people's perspectives.

00:57:40.020 Yeah.

00:57:40.860 I mean, I've noticed that.

00:57:42.600 Yeah.

00:57:42.940 And this is a world I don't want to live in.

00:57:44.580 And this is why I have made it my agenda to make lithium, to show the world that lithium is an essential trace element.

00:57:52.120 And the biggest opponent I have is the pharmaceutical industry.

00:57:56.020 Why?

00:57:56.100 Why would they be opposed?

00:57:57.540 Well, all these diseases that follow this deficiency of lithium are their biggest markets.

00:58:03.420 So what's their argument?

00:58:05.740 So if I were to have Albert Bourla, who I'd love to interview, right now, and I asked him about you and your pro-lithium agenda, what would he say?

00:58:16.520 How would he criticize you?

00:58:18.180 Well, they have no real arguments.

00:58:20.300 I mean, the arguments are simply not there.

00:58:23.640 Every argument I can encounter quickly,

00:58:26.660 but they are not even open to discuss it.

00:58:28.780 So maybe they have a lithium deficiency, I don't know.

00:58:31.340 So I don't know, but they're not even open to discuss it.

00:58:35.680 Even if I asked JetGPT, for example,

00:58:38.540 I gave it my example, you know, all the results of my research

00:58:43.260 and said, this is now what I have.

00:58:45.040 The answer was, okay, lithium fulfills all the criteria

00:58:48.520 that were necessary for all the other trace elements

00:58:52.120 when they were named or defined as essential.

00:58:59.220 So if you have a leg, you have essentially dead animals,

00:59:03.860 they are not fertile anymore, we have a disease.

00:59:09.860 Actually, six weeks after my speech at the European Parliament,

00:59:14.900 Nature published, Nature, a very prestigious paper, journal,

00:59:18.920 They published a study from Harvard University and they looked at the brains of Alzheimer patients who died.

00:59:31.360 They checked what trace elements do they have in their brain and how does it link the amount of trace elements they find to the disease stage.

00:59:40.560 And they found that from 27 or 28 different trace elements they checked.

00:59:44.500 Not all of them are essential, but also aluminum is a trace element in our body because it is there and it entraces.

00:59:53.280 But from 28 trace elements I looked at, only one was significantly correlated to this disease, and that was the lack of lithium.

01:00:02.100 And that correlates completely to what we find in studies, epidemiological studies,

01:00:07.920 that if you have a lack of lithium in your water, which is the main source of lithium,

01:00:14.160 then you have a high risk of Alzheimer's

01:00:16.640 and also a risk of dying of Alzheimer's.

01:00:19.380 And then they took mice and removed lithium

01:00:23.000 and they immediately developed Alzheimer's, the mice.

01:00:25.960 Of course, they were genetically engineered

01:00:27.140 to develop Alzheimer's,

01:00:28.400 but they usually don't develop Alzheimer's

01:00:30.340 if you treat them well,

01:00:31.780 because if you give them room to run around,

01:00:34.840 if they are happy animals,

01:00:37.040 they don't care if they have a gene in their brain

01:00:39.380 that actually causes Alzheimer's,

01:00:41.060 a human gene that causes Alzheimer's.

01:00:42.560 This is actually what I published many years ago.

01:00:46.400 There are genes that mutations in genes that cause Alzheimer's, but they don't cause Alzheimer's, they accelerate Alzheimer's.

01:00:53.980 But what they accelerate is a state of deficiencies that we have in our body that if we remove them, actually the mutations in these genes don't make any difference.

01:01:07.160 So essentially behavior trumps, you know, genetics.

01:01:11.980 You know, behavior in the sense of giving the body what he needs.

01:01:14.980 If we do that, our brain or our body actually doesn't care what kind of genes actually might cause Alzheimer's.

01:01:24.520 You can overcome the genetic disposition.

01:01:27.820 So anyway, these animals were genetically engineered to have this predisposition to Alzheimer's.

01:01:35.140 They don't get Alzheimer's, but once you remove lithium from their diet, they actually develop the disease.

01:01:41.060 And if you give the lithium back, the disease disappears.

01:01:44.320 Do you think that if everyone in the United States got a milligram of lithium every day, what would be the effects?

01:01:50.100 It would be dramatic.

01:01:51.680 And not only, of course, lithium by itself is just curing one deficiency.

01:01:57.240 As I outline in my book, there are many deficiencies that people suffer from.

01:02:01.520 Omega-3 would be one, vitamin D might be another.

01:02:04.580 Depending on how their diet is, it might be vitamin B12 or whatever, you know.

01:02:08.740 So, there are many deficiencies and you have to, of course, based on the law of the minimum, you have to get rid of all of them.

01:02:14.360 But lithium is a really good start.

01:02:16.700 Actually, a friend of mine, he is a pediatrician.

01:02:21.000 He actually gives lithium to all the children, meanwhile.

01:02:24.780 And he says, and he did before that, over 20 years, he gave them vitamin D.

01:02:29.100 He gave them omega-3 fatty acids.

01:02:30.640 He gave them everything they needed.

01:02:32.100 But he didn't know about lithium until he met me.

01:02:34.840 So, now he started to give them lithium.

01:02:36.480 He does it now for two years.

01:02:38.220 And since he did this, he said, this is the most life-changing trace element he has ever experienced in 20 years.

01:02:47.560 After a few days, children who are irritable are not irritable anymore.

01:02:52.040 Children who refuse to go to school because they have a lot of anger driven.

01:02:56.280 They don't socialize.

01:02:58.020 It's gone.

01:02:59.080 We reverse autism this way, you know, in the early stages.

01:03:03.260 I have a friend of mine.

01:03:04.860 Her son is 17 years old.

01:03:07.480 We met several times.

01:03:09.400 He didn't want to look in my eyes.

01:03:10.680 He couldn't speak.

01:03:11.740 He actually put it on YouTube after a few months of lithium and, of course, everything else.

01:03:17.000 After a few months, he actually sent me a message through YouTube, thanked me officially.

01:03:21.560 And he looked into the camera and said, my life has changed since I got lithium.

01:03:26.960 It will change everything.

01:03:28.480 In chapter four of the book, I put together something that I would say would be a revolution in medicine.

01:03:35.300 At the very moment, you have the law of the minimum, which actually is a law of nature.

01:03:42.940 For everything that has to grow, it needs, that's basically based on its evolutionary history, which defines the necessities, you know.

01:03:54.600 I mean, a cactus has a different necessity to grow than a fern tree, you know, a plant who lives in the brushes, you know, in the dark.

01:04:04.620 in the woods you know I mean

01:04:06.940 every plant has a different

01:04:09.120 requirement to grow and the same goes

01:04:11.140 of course for us we have different requirements

01:04:13.040 than a fish or

01:04:14.520 I don't know a dog everybody

01:04:17.080 every species

01:04:19.200 on this planet has

01:04:20.280 specific requirements but

01:04:23.040 they are all defined by the law of the minimum

01:04:24.960 it might be different for different species

01:04:26.820 but the law of the minimum is always

01:04:28.980 is responsible that we

01:04:30.840 live to our

01:04:32.400 are genetically optimum, to our genetic optimum.

01:04:37.060 And so, if something is missing, then of course it will be detrimental.

01:04:44.120 This is basic science, it is understandable, you don't have to be a doctor to know that.

01:04:49.960 It's so simple to understand.

01:04:51.900 This basic law of life, the law of the minimum, actually is also the law of the maximum, you

01:04:57.780 shouldn't give anybody something that is too much of something, it's the law of the maximum,

01:05:02.260 And between, you have the ability for what we call homeostasis, self-regulation.

01:05:06.640 Yes.

01:05:06.960 Self-regulation is impeded if something is missing, law of the minimum, or if something is too much.

01:05:11.060 And these two laws are not taught in med school.

01:05:15.120 At least not in Europe.

01:05:16.420 At least not in Germany, I would say.

01:05:18.020 Or in Switzerland or in Austria.

01:05:20.580 Because I talked to many doctors and I had studied in med school.

01:05:25.600 This basic law is not taught.

01:05:27.600 And why is it not taught?

01:05:28.580 Because all chronic diseases are essentially a result of not obeying the law of the minimum and the maximum.

01:05:36.820 If these laws are not obeyed, chronic disease will ensue.

01:05:40.460 So once you know that, and you know that if you have a deficiency in A, you cannot cure it by giving B,

01:05:47.840 then every drug that is prescribed by doctors lose their sense.

01:05:52.960 because if you have a deficiency, let's say, in lithium and your brain develops Alzheimer's,

01:06:00.020 what drug could help you? It must be lithium. Nothing else helps. So, every drug that the

01:06:07.660 pharmaceutical industry tries to develop is essentially a lithium mimetic, a pure alternative

01:06:14.500 to lithium. But at the same time, they have to make sure that nobody takes lithium because their

01:06:19.940 drugs would be worthless. And when I gave the talk at the European Parliament, I actually showed it

01:06:26.920 for Alzheimer's. And there are many reviews out now, meta-analysis, where they looked at studies

01:06:33.780 where people with Alzheimer's got lithium. So lithium at a very low dose, 300 micrograms,

01:06:39.480 that's not even a milligram, 300 micrograms, that's 0.3 milligram, actually stabilized

01:06:45.520 Alzheimer's patients for 15 months, while the control group, no, went downhill. It was just

01:06:52.460 a single molecule. If you do everything that's in here in the book, you can actually reverse

01:06:57.600 Alzheimer's. So, and this is what I think should be the future of medicine, a preventive medicine

01:07:03.420 that gives people everything they need based on the law of the minimum.

01:07:06.100 When you say reverse Alzheimer's, give us a scenario where that would work.

01:07:10.240 Well, you realize-

01:07:11.160 At what stage in the progression of the disease?

01:07:12.880 It's in the early stage. It's in the early stage. It's like you can reverse, for example, diabetes and type 2 diabetes.

01:07:19.780 I should say, I've taken it for granted now, people know that. 15, 20 years ago, if you said you can reverse type 2 diabetes, you would have been laughed at.

01:07:29.260 Yeah, I know. I was laughed at.

01:07:31.100 Oh, you said that then?

01:07:32.000 Yeah, sure, sure. 15 years ago, I already proclaimed that all these diseases can be reversed, but I took the most difficult path.

01:07:41.000 I try to convince people that it also works for Alzheimer's.

01:07:44.900 And that's why I published my first book.

01:07:46.680 Yeah, that is not a conventional view right now.

01:07:48.520 No, it's not, but you can reverse it.

01:07:51.240 Because Alzheimer's in the early stage, that's why I call it hippocampal dementia,

01:07:57.020 starts in the hippocampus.

01:07:58.920 And when the hippocampus is affected,

01:08:01.120 the first thing that you lack is a lack of sense in where you are,

01:08:08.620 what you just experienced.

01:08:10.240 And this is all driven by a lack of these nerve cells that I call index neurons.

01:08:15.360 The index neurons are the nerve cells in the hippocampus.

01:08:19.240 They index essentially all the information that you have learned during the day.

01:08:24.680 So we are sitting here.

01:08:26.740 And if I want to remember in a few weeks, in a few years, our conversation, the index neurons essentially get this information,

01:08:36.640 the content of our discussion here, from our brain,

01:08:40.680 and they have to reconstruct it so it becomes conscious again.

01:08:45.160 And in order to do that, they require the two informations.

01:08:49.920 When did the conversation take place and where?

01:08:53.240 When and where?

01:08:54.380 Actually, for the where, these are called space neurons.

01:08:58.680 The Nobel Prize was given, I think it was 2016 or so, or 2014.

01:09:04.360 I think it was 16.

01:09:05.460 The Nobel Prize was given for the discovery that the hippocampus has cells that memorize where something happened.

01:09:13.580 In the same year, the time neurons were discovered.

01:09:16.420 The hippocampus also traces down when something happened.

01:09:20.320 And the when and where we can connect, this is my term, to an index.

01:09:25.220 These are index neurons.

01:09:26.540 They have an index like if you're going to the library, every book contains some information.

01:09:32.540 And this is like the confirmation that we, the information that we are exchanging here.

01:09:36.720 This information is in a book, but you have to find this book in your brain again.

01:09:40.680 And there you need an index for this book.

01:09:42.580 And the index is the time when the conversation happened and the where, where the conversation happened.

01:09:49.060 And the index neurons happen to be the ones that are produced every day.

01:09:53.440 Index neurons are produced by the adult hippocampal neurogenesis every day.

01:09:58.540 So in order for our brain to store new books every day,

01:10:02.400 lifelong, we have to produce new cells.

01:10:04.680 That's what the index neurons are for.

01:10:07.000 That's what the neurogenesis is for,

01:10:08.800 the production of new nerve cells.

01:10:10.860 Now, if you stop this production

01:10:13.840 because you don't obey the law of the maximum,

01:10:16.380 you give the brain too much toxins,

01:10:18.480 alcohol, whatever, too much, then it stops.

01:10:21.860 If you have a lack of something,

01:10:23.540 the law of the minimum, it cannot go.

01:10:25.680 If you have a lack of lithium,

01:10:27.880 production is not as good. For example, lithium is known that it activates the production of

01:10:34.800 brain-derived neurotropic factor. And brain-derived neurotropic factor is a growth factor for the

01:10:39.620 production of new neural cells in the hippocampus. Lithium shuts down severe inflammation.

01:10:45.940 Inflammation shuts down neurogenesis. So, lithium is helping you that if you come under stress,

01:10:51.840 that you don't immediately have a complete shutdown by neuroinflammation of the production

01:10:57.020 of new neural cells in your brain and lithium that's maybe the oldest effect of lithium and

01:11:02.940 i was able in the book to show that the first cell that ever existed on this planet however it was

01:11:10.840 created maybe god however it doesn't matter the first cell on this planet is called the last

01:11:17.560 universal common ancestor of all life on this planet of plants bacteria humans the first cell

01:11:26.360 that was in the evolutionary tree, the first one on the bottom, had already a defense system which

01:11:33.240 I was able to show relied on lithium. And the defense system is called autophagy, very known

01:11:43.320 self-eat. Autophagy is activated by inhibition of an enzyme called inositol monophosphatase,

01:11:52.120 complicated word, I call it impase. So impase is an enzyme that is essentially activated by

01:11:59.080 magnesium and inhibited by lithium. So it's like a gas pedal and a brake pedal. And in order to

01:12:08.420 drive a car safely, you have to brake and accelerate. You have to be able to do both.

01:12:15.260 So homeostasis requires that you have both magnesium and lithium. But if you only have

01:12:20.000 magnesium and no lithium, then actually autophagy is shut down. Autophagy is required for the

01:12:31.380 impase to activate the autophagy process. So if you think about it, our brain has the

01:12:38.940 ability to become 100 years old. It can only become 100 years old if first neurogenesis

01:12:46.360 is taking place all the time in the hippocampus.

01:12:49.480 Otherwise, you develop Alzheimer's and die.

01:12:52.500 And the second thing is that all the other nerve cells,

01:12:54.740 every nerve cell in your brain has to become 100 years old

01:12:57.400 because the nerve cell you cannot replace.

01:13:00.480 You cannot remove it and put another one in

01:13:02.980 if it doesn't work anymore properly.

01:13:04.380 It has to stay healthy from the day you are born

01:13:08.140 up to the oldest age.

01:13:10.420 And the only way to stay healthy for 100 years maybe

01:13:13.200 is that this nerve cell has the ability for a very active autophagy self-eating.

01:13:21.640 Eating of mitochondria that don't work anymore,

01:13:25.000 of proteins that don't work anymore,

01:13:27.420 that they don't become just debris, you know, lying around

01:13:30.280 and make the cell dysfunctional.

01:13:32.760 We have to make sure that the cell is always active and functional.

01:13:38.060 And it's the only way to do that is autophagy.

01:13:40.660 So autophagy is the oldest process probably in the whole living kingdom in life.

01:13:49.700 Fasting can spur autophagy, is that correct?

01:13:52.980 Fasting is a very good way to do that.

01:13:55.460 And lithium is a key that it actually works.

01:13:59.200 So we all have a little bit of lithium in us, so we still have a little bit of autophagy,

01:14:03.120 but it could be much better if we had the essential dose.

01:14:06.100 to be totally clear

01:14:08.840 you're calling for about a milligram

01:14:10.960 a day per person

01:14:12.280 and I'm not the first one

01:14:13.880 there was actually a key scientist

01:14:16.580 actually also a German but he had his

01:14:18.720 own department at the University of

01:14:20.840 San Diego and he published

01:14:22.780 a paper in 2002

01:14:24.140 about the essentiality of lithium

01:14:26.960 at the time everything he knew

01:14:28.760 at the time he put together

01:14:30.780 in a review article he had his

01:14:32.860 own department he was one of

01:14:34.880 the leading experts in the world

01:14:36.260 on trace elements and vitamins.

01:14:38.580 And he published that lithium is essential

01:14:40.460 and you need one milligram.

01:14:42.620 He at the time was not,

01:14:45.120 yeah, he published it,

01:14:46.480 but nobody really took notice of that.

01:14:50.960 And the problem was also

01:14:53.120 he didn't really explain

01:14:54.880 how he came to one milligram.

01:14:56.980 And also, of course,

01:14:58.160 he didn't have all the information

01:15:00.700 at the time that now 20 years later

01:15:02.740 I got no access to.

01:15:04.880 so I could be

01:15:06.520 in my book I was more thorough

01:15:08.960 the chain

01:15:11.380 of evidence is complete now

01:15:13.200 and when I did

01:15:15.200 some reasoning how much we need I also

01:15:17.280 came to one milligram so I

01:15:18.740 is there any doubt

01:15:20.280 so that was 24 years ago

01:15:22.940 if I took a milligram

01:15:25.220 of lithium every day for 24 years

01:15:27.040 would there be any downside any negative

01:15:28.960 effects not that I know of

01:15:31.040 the deficiency is the problem

01:15:32.660 Lithium is probably the safest trace element from all essential trace elements which are out there.

01:15:40.440 So, for example, iodine, the recommended daily allowance, if you go three, four, five times above that, it could become problematic.

01:15:48.780 The same goes for selenium, for zinc, for many of these, magnesium, four, five, ten times more and it becomes dangerous.

01:15:57.180 Lithium, the European Chemical Association Agency, which essentially is advising the European Commission,

01:16:04.960 they published a paper recently, or a few years ago, that you can go up to 85 milligrams of lithium a day without harm on the long run.

01:16:15.000 85 milligram.

01:16:16.060 I wouldn't recommend 85 milligram, but this is 85-fold.

01:16:19.560 So, you are far away from any toxicity.

01:16:23.080 So, okay, so to the practical part of the conversation, what should the average person do every day to reap the benefits you describe?

01:16:32.940 Yeah, I would take lithium, actually, unless you are living already in an area where there's a lot of lithium in the tap water, and you have to drink the tap water, of course, and maybe two liters or so if it's just, let's say, a half milligram per liter per watt, but I would recommend lithium orotate.

01:16:49.380 And actually, that's what also the Nature paper said that I just quoted, you know, which was published on the 6th of August, 25, that lithium has physiological role in our brain that is important for keeping the brain healthy.

01:17:06.880 It's essentially the natural antidote against Alzheimer's.

01:17:12.120 Still, the European Union still doesn't like it to be inaugurated as an essential trace element.

01:17:20.340 But I need only one country to do that.

01:17:23.100 But this is a different story.

01:17:24.100 So what should you do?

01:17:25.160 The paper in Nature actually recommended the same salt of lithium that I recommend.

01:17:30.620 Of course, lithium, I talked about lithium chloride, you know, in this when they...

01:17:35.880 when they... Replace table salt with a thousand times. Yeah, when they poison the people. Lithium

01:17:41.560 chloride is not good because the lithium is ionized very quickly. The same actually is with

01:17:47.240 lithium carbonate. Lithium carbonate is what people get with bipolar disorder. But the carbonate

01:17:53.060 becomes essentially CO2 in your stomach and you have the pure lithium. It's an iron. Much better

01:17:59.260 and more effective is what I recommend is lithium orotate.

01:18:04.400 Orotate is the salt of the orotic acid

01:18:07.860 and this was formerly known as vitamin B13.

01:18:13.820 It was 20 years ago, it was recognized as a vitamin

01:18:17.020 until we found out, the researchers found out

01:18:21.640 that the orotic acid is produced by the female breast 0.76

01:18:28.660 and they produce milk. 0.98

01:18:30.440 So, the breast milk contains the aortic acid.

01:18:36.340 Actually, it's the Greek word,

01:18:40.040 aortic acid stands for milk.

01:18:43.180 And it was first discovered only in milk from cows

01:18:46.500 and from other animals.

01:18:49.060 And it took a while that they realized

01:18:51.880 also humans can produce it.

01:18:54.140 And then it became, it was said it's not a vitamin

01:18:58.540 anymore because we can't produce it. And it's a key component of nucleic acids. So if you need

01:19:05.300 this aortic acid to produce new cells, to double, for example, your DNA and when you produce cells.

01:19:11.800 So it's very important for your body. And because it's so important, there are transport systems

01:19:17.560 in your stomach, in your gut, and there are transport systems over the blood-bane barrier

01:19:22.040 They try to deliver the auric acid to the cells that are important for us and particularly nerve cells.

01:19:30.400 So they produce the auric acid as a transport system and the lithium can hijack essentially this transport system because it forms a very stable complex.

01:19:43.240 So, lithium orotate is ideal.

01:19:45.400 And the scientists from Harvard University actually tested different lithium salts.

01:19:52.620 And I was very happy because the book was already out that they concluded lithium orotate is the way to go.

01:19:58.940 So, back to your question, what would I recommend?

01:20:01.960 I would recommend one milligram of lithium every day in form of lithium orotate.

01:20:07.860 And what form is that?

01:20:08.780 I mean, for the average person, don't have access to…

01:20:11.960 It's a little capsule.

01:20:12.360 A science lab. You can just go on Amazon and buy that?

01:20:14.920 Yeah, you can go to a drugstore. In Europe, it's no problem. In America, it's no problem. In the United States, in Europe, it is a problem. Of course, you can also get it at Amazon because the import, for example, from the United States is allowed.

01:20:28.980 You know, I actually talked to a lawyer and she said to me that you can actually buy it in the United States.

01:20:38.520 You can essentially request it shipped to you, but you're not allowed by, for example, European law to get it shipped for your whole family because then you become a drug dealer.

01:20:49.180 That's too much lithium for you.

01:20:50.760 It's too much lithium.

01:20:51.600 You are not allowed because you're only for personal consumption. 0.96

01:20:54.420 So we have this very stupid, strange situation that first lithium is not acknowledged as an essential trace element, even though it is. 0.93

01:21:06.820 And then we have, on top of that, we have a prohibition. 0.99

01:21:10.800 It's forbidden to put lithium for European companies in supplements, making it completely idiotic. 1.00

01:21:20.360 Well, idiotic or actually kind of brilliantly diabolical. 1.00

01:21:24.640 Absolutely. 1.00

01:21:25.240 If you were trying to subdue and destroy a population, it seems like this would be a good way to do it.

01:21:29.280 If you want to make sure that people are willing to follow narratives, if you want to shut down the mental immune system, taking away lithium or making it difficult to supplement it, even creating fear of lithium.

01:21:44.680 lithium because you know people are treated by lithium with lithium and they have bipolar disorder

01:21:49.680 but then they get hundreds of milligrams very close to the toxic lethal dose really close you

01:21:57.260 have to monitor them pretty much every other week that they don't overdose you know it's very toxic

01:22:02.560 many people who with bipolar disorder actually discontinue based on the side effects they

01:22:07.800 experience and all these side effects are in you can google them you know you go to google and then

01:22:13.080 It says, okay, it harms your kidneys, it harms your thyroids, it harms many things, you know, because, of course, you overdose it essentially as a treatment.

01:22:24.200 And people fear now lithium is toxic.

01:22:27.080 The problem in Germany is, and all over Europe, since it is not allowed as a supplement, you have to have a prescription by a doctor for an essential amount.

01:22:37.840 and this is totally ridiculous because now you have to convince first the doctors that they

01:22:44.080 prescribe it to people so people who read my book say okay i want to have lithium for myself for my

01:22:49.020 family for my kids but i can't go to a drugstore i have to essentially go to a doctor writing me

01:22:55.240 prescription but the doctor if he was well good enough indoctrinated by the med by med school

01:23:01.240 yeah by the idea of the pharmaceutical industry the dogma you know the dogma of the pharmaceutical

01:23:06.840 industry that we are taught in med school, it's quite simple. First of all, humans are a failure 0.83

01:23:13.940 of nature, a misconstruction. They tend to all kinds of diseases. And third, only the pharmaceutical 0.82

01:23:21.160 industry can save us. Okay. That sounds like a religion to me.

01:23:26.660 It's a religion. It's a dogma that we are taught and we are not taught the law of the minimum,

01:23:31.220 which would essentially make this sound stupid because the law of the minimum says, 0.94

01:23:37.480 well, you get a chronic disease if you have a lack of something that is essential for you. 0.87

01:23:42.340 So once I realized that, then as a doctor, I would give every patient what he needs

01:23:47.580 that he doesn't, you know, get the disease.

01:23:50.200 It would be preventive medicine.

01:23:52.960 But preventive medicine requires the understanding of the law of the minimum.

01:23:56.300 But this is not taught.

01:23:57.140 What is taught is people get all kinds of diseases.

01:24:01.560 When I left med school, I essentially knew nature is, I believe nature is playing a game with me.

01:24:08.420 So either I end up with Alzheimer's, a stroke, heart attack, or cancer.

01:24:14.080 These are my choices.

01:24:17.400 And I actually went into basic research, genetic research, to help the pharmaceutical industry to solve these problems.

01:24:24.380 until I realized by my own experience

01:24:28.200 that maybe my lifestyle is a cause of a heart attack

01:24:31.840 that I was prone to get when I was 40.

01:24:34.740 Yes.

01:24:35.020 So when I realized I just have to change my life a little bit

01:24:40.000 to omit all these diseases,

01:24:42.420 then I really became interested because I'm a researcher.

01:24:45.180 So what happened?

01:24:46.380 And then I discovered the law of the minimum,

01:24:48.820 you know, this law, which is for agriculture, for humans.

01:24:53.000 When I realized that, everything changed.

01:24:56.920 I realized now we need a complete new medical system.

01:25:01.860 And MAHA is exactly that, you know.

01:25:03.880 It's exactly my paper, Unified Theory of Alzheimer's,

01:25:07.600 is essentially a blueprint of MAHA,

01:25:09.860 but it contains lithium and it contains algae oil.

01:25:13.760 If these two components are added, MAHA will be a great success.

01:25:17.380 i'm going to uh do everything i can to pass the word doctor thank you for this

01:25:25.420 yeah i thank you thank you very much for your time thank you yeah it was a pleasure it really was
