Natural Alternatives That Big Companies Don't Want You To Know | Tracy Lee DSH #949

Believe in really as much as possible.

Wow.

Because a lot of the olive oil is scams.

Like they're mixed with and rendered down with a lot of canola oil often.

So unless you read your labels and see where your olive oil is coming from, there's a good chance you're not getting true olive oil.

I could see that because there's no way they can make it for five bucks at the grocery store.

It's what they sell it for.

Right.

All right, guys, got Tracy Lee here today.

Someone I've known for a while now in Vegas.

Yeah.

Four Four years now?

Four years.

Nice.

Yeah.

I love it out here.

Yeah.

Love living in Vegas.

You pulled up carrying.

What?

Oh, yeah.

Always.

I always carry, and it's funny because people have no idea.

I'll be wearing the skimpiest outfit and they're like, so where's your gun?

And I'm like, trust me, I got it.

Nice.

So even the casinos you bring?

I played the fifth.

I know some of them are strict.

That's why I asked.

But Vegas is concealed state, right?

So you could kind of bring it wherever.

Yeah, but there's certain ones that have signs at the door that I may or may not see when I walk in.

I bought a Glock when I moved here.

What did you buy?

Just a regular one.

Glock 9mm.

19?

17?

I think so, yeah.

One of those.

I don't know.

Is it big?

Really big or medium-sized or small?

I'd say small, actually.

So there's a Glock 43, which is really tiny, but I don't think you would shoot that.

Your hands would be too short.

No, it was like 500 bucks.

I'm going to assume it's a Glock 19.

Okay.

Yeah.

I got to learn how to use it.

Let's go.

You'll take me?

Yeah, I'll take you.

Where do you shoot out here?

Well, I run social media for the Pro Gun Vegas out in Boulder City, so we can go use their range.

Nice.

Or I go to the desert and I go for indoor ranges to go to range 702.

Okay.

What drove you to get so passionate in that space?

So I was traveling around the world with the UFC, and

I guess Dan Henderson took me shooting for my first time, and that was after one of his fights in Portland, Oregon.

And

we went to shoot skeet afterwards, and translating

shooting moving subjects

in the cage to shooting on a range, it translated super well.

So

I got addicted.

And then I built a relationship with one of the gun ranges here in Vegas, the gun store.

And

I used to take all the fighters there.

And they would let me shoot for free

if I brought fighters in because they were huge fight fans.

And we're talking about, I think, 2009, 2010.

So, I mean, it became an era where we were going shooting.

And then we go out to the racetrack and race cars down at Exotics Racing.

We'd do Doombuggies.

You know, I was always taking guys because I had a website where I would shoot behind the scenes of the fight industry.

So

I got addicted to shooting guns in that process.

And then in 2015, I actually actually started taking classes, bought my first gun then, and the rest is history.

So I'm almost 10 years in the firearms industry, like really, really in-depth in the firearms industry.

That's badass.

Do you do those shooting competitions ever?

I do shooting competitions.

I'm not like some hardcore shooting competitor, but I shoot,

ironically, I shoot an AK competition once a month.

Nice.

And, you know, that's why it's kind of sad with everything going on the news today.

You know, it's sad that this guy decided to use an AK.

I was just going to ask.

Yeah.

Why do you think he picked that gun specifically?

I'm not sure.

And it could have to do with Ukraine.

You know, they use a lot of AKs overseas in

Russia, Ukraine, and so on and so forth.

So it could have something to do with that.

But yeah,

the minute I heard there was an AK, I was like, oh, God.

You knew?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Damn.

Are they that common?

AKs?

Yeah.

There is a big subculture for AK-47s.

We prefer overseas AKs to US AKs, but there are some good quality US AKs coming out now.

Interesting.

So why are there overseas ones better?

They're just the original ones that built them.

Oh, so we tried to copy them.

Right.

Exactly.

So there's a lot to the process of building them that

There's a lot to the process of building them that

That they do better.

It's like cars.

There's not many good American-made cars.

Exactly.

So America America, in terms of gun quality, we don't rank that high?

I mean, there are some great companies, but it seems like, I mean, Glock is from Austria.

Oh, okay.

You know,

and that's a small country.

Right.

And they make all the Glocks?

Wow.

I think there's actually probably a factory here in the States, just like all of the overseas,

you know, car companies.

They all have factories here in the United States, too, but they're originally designed overseas.

A lot.

Not all guns, but a lot of guns are.

Damn.

that's cool so you were there at the ufc before it really kind of took off then 2009's pretty early yeah i think i started shooting ufc around 2006 wow end of 2006 i was uh my first fight was stefan bonner versus forrest griffin too i didn't make the first one but the second one that's super early yeah so did you see it like taking off like this

No,

we didn't know.

I mean, I thought at that time that was already taken off.

You know, it wasn't, it wasn't super mainstream, but it was, it was more mainstream than underground at that point.

I didn't, I didn't get in there at the full-on underground aspect where, you know, it was called no holds bard.

You know, so I've been, I've been

around fighters and fights for a very long time.

And

it's been interesting seeing it all change.

I mean, they just did.

the fight at the sphere right and i was watching a lot of responses to it i didn't go

It was really cool.

Thousands of people.

It looked incredible, but I didn't even watch it on TV.

But the responses I saw from Brendan Schaub had really negative responses.

He called it Rainforest Cafe.

He said it looks really cool, but it didn't taste good.

Well, the fights probably played a part in that.

Yeah.

And I was really surprised that they didn't have.

And I don't want to knock any of the fighters, but I was surprised they didn't have like superstar fights.

Yeah, well, Jones got injured.

Connor McGregor's injured.

I think the timing was just bad.

Yeah.

You know?

So hopefully maybe they'll do it again with

a bigger and better card.

And again, not to knock any of the fighters because Valentina is an amazing fighter.

Murab is an amazing fighter.

And congratulations to both of them.

Yeah, just from a fan's point of view, that kind of style doesn't translate well.

I'm not sure.

I didn't see it.

I saw a lot of social media from people that were there, and it looked amazing.

And I saw it looked like

Mortal Kombat, you know,

the stage on Mortal Kombat kind of thing.

But

I didn't see it on TV, so I don't know how well it translated on TV.

But I mean, looking at what Brendan said, it didn't translate very well.

Yeah.

And you used to be involved with the parties, right?

Before the fights and after the fights.

So I took that upon myself.

I was the unofficial social director for the UFC.

And I would throw pre-parties.

I would get sponsors.

It would get

fighters to, you know, host the parties, or I would host them myself.

I had my own website.

It was called Combat Lifestyle.

So I would shoot the fights, the way in, so on and so forth.

And also, I would shoot pre-parties, post-parties.

That's why I threw them is so I had the content.

That's smart.

So I've been building content from way before

anyone was really building content.

Right, because you were doing photography before even social media existed, right?

Right.

I mean, I always like to joke that I've been doing social media since before it was called social media.

What gave you that foresight?

You think you just liked it?

You know,

I was on so many of the different websites.

We're talking Friendster and MySpace and all that stuff.

And, you know, I messed up on MySpace.

I was one of those, why would I accept all these people as my friends?

When I don't know them and you got forbidden and Tila Tequila and all those people accepted everybody that requested them and they ended up with hundreds of thousands of followers and you know

book deals and TV deals and so on and so forth.

They are no longer alive so maybe it's fortunate that I didn't do that but it was probably

you know put them into bad situations in having that much fame at such a young age.

But I don't know.

Yeah, those rarely work out those child stars.

They weren't quite child stars, but you know, back that was back in the day they they skyrocketed right overnight's fame back in the day having 100k on myspace was like a huge deal right right yeah um you mentioned tv shows you're about to be on a reality tv show yeah i have a reality show coming out and end of september it is called american air gunner challenge so it is kind of like

I've been told it's kind of like Top Shot, but I actually don't watch TV very often, so I haven't seen Top Shot.

It's like Top Shot for air guns.

And it comes out on the Outdoor Channel.

There's eight competitors.

We went out to Arkansas in the heat of summer at the beginning, you know, in May, and we had to deal with a lot of weather.

There's one day we almost had, I think, lightning storm, hurricane type thing touchdown.

But it was a lot of fun.

I had a great time out there.

And when we landed in Arkansas, we were all on the plane together coming from a layover in Dallas.

When we landed, we took a group picture together.

And the the girl that took the picture for us was like, oh, that's the last time you're going to like each other.

And we're just like, oh my God, you know, hearing that previous seasons didn't necessarily get along.

We had the most fun.

It was so hilarious.

And I'm actually in the process of editing a video using the full house music and the full house theme

to put us all together

in a video introducing us right before the show launches.

Nice.

What platform is it going to be on?

Probably Instagram, TikTok, YouTube.

Okay.

So you went independent route?

Yeah.

Oh, I mean, for this, I mean, because we're all going to collab on the video and it, yeah.

So as far as the video introducing us, yeah, that's all us.

Got it, got it.

Yeah, we were doing TikToks and, you know, dance videos throughout while we were filming, just as long as we didn't show the actual show.

Smart little behind-the-scenes.

You're always thinking like that, right?

Capturing the internet.

I did a follow me, get, or, you know, watch me get ready for as a reality show contestant.

Yeah, that's cool.

I want to talk about the health stuff.

This is where it gets interesting.

Yeah, because it's so political, too.

Just like firearms are really political right now, the health stuff is really political.

So I've had some health issues and been anemic for the past seven, eight years at least.

Wow.

I can't even target when I started because I didn't know.

I didn't know I was anemic for a long time.

So

I started in November.

I guess I can go back a little bit.

I did the keto diet in 2017 to 2019.

I was in ketosis all the time.

But I didn't know that spinach and almonds and almond flour and a lot of the things that you eat on the keto diet are high in oxalates.

So I ate those things as if my life depended on it and ended up with kidney stones.

Damn.

I ended up with three kidney stones in 2019.

I passed them in

September.

I was on a range in

Arizona, followed by a range in Florida.

So a week of, you know, or five days of passing kidney stones

while I'm training and shooting.

You had that many?

I had, well, so that was one kidney stone.

It took me, you know, four or five days to pass.

And like clockwork, I was taking CBD and ibuprofen to get through it.

Get home.

I think I've got, you know,

I don't know, a bladder infection or a kidney infection or something.

Get home.

think it's a bladder infection i i address that and then i have another kidney stone in uh october and this one put me in the hospital and so they did a cat scan and figured out oh you have kidney stones i said oh that's probably what happened in september you got two two more

so so i passed the uh a kidney stone in october and then so september october and then the third one was in december so the december one actually the funny thing about the October one, I had scuba lessons that day.

So I was like, okay, I'm going to drive home.

And they're all, no, you're not.

They gave me diloted trauma doll.

What?

So I'm on narcotics and I'm all, I'm going to drive home.

And they're all like, no, you're not.

So my friend Myra comes and picks me up.

I'm going to Thailand the next month.

So I need this.

this scuba certification.

She drives me to my scuba class and I puke out the door on the way there.

And I get to scuba class, and I

they're they're like, Thanks for being late.

I was about 10 minutes late.

I have my hospital bracelet on.

I'm all like, Well, I got, I got my hospital bracelet on.

They're all, you didn't have to come.

So, everybody thinks I'm crazy because I went to scuba class, but it was only the classroom portion.

If I had been getting in the water that day, I wouldn't have gone, just to clarify.

But yeah, I puked one more time during class, finished class, trooper, but I had to do it.

So, um, and that's the the type of person i am i try and push through anything

fast forward to the third kidney stone i'm in houston texas for an ak competition and trouble a lot

yes i do um i'm out there for an ak competition and and um event and the morning after the competition i'm getting ready to head to the airport start passing the third kidney stone oh

i knew it was coming i knew it was coming and they had no ibuprofen And I just, I ended up taking, what's that powder ibuprofen?

Powder ibuprofen.

It comes, it starts at the B.

It comes in a little packet and it's powder.

I tried to take that and it doesn't come in a pill.

So it doesn't have the coating.

It doesn't go down easy.

I puked immediately.

So I go to the airport.

I'm on the plane dying and pacing, sweating at the back of the plane.

And

the flight attendant's all like,

are you okay?

And I go, kidney stone.

And she goes, oh my God,

what can I get you?

How can I help you?

So she knew immediately.

So it probably took me 14, 16 hours to pass that one.

Oh, my gosh.

Yeah.

It was horrible.

It was terrible.

And that was all from the keto diet?

That was from the keto diet.

And that was because I didn't know.

And now there's tons of stuff that comes out, tons of videos out there that explain how bad oxalates are for you.

They're little sharp razor, thin, you know, pieces that the vegetables use as their defense mechanism.

Right.

They have no way to defend against you eating them.

Not like animals have defense mechanisms.

That's their defense mechanisms.

So when you have oxalates in your system, some people are more sensitive than others.

They bind to calcium and they turn into kidney stones.

Wow.

So when you see all these vegans and vegetarians.

Right.

There's a good chance that they are living with a lot of kidney stones.

Oh my gosh.

And especially stuff like spinach and leafy grains and kale and so on.

So I'm one of those people that definitely looks at a list and knows what I can and can't eat now.

Yeah.

I used to love kale chips.

Oh my gosh.

But I cut them out completely.

Yep.

I used to eat them all the time.

What made you stop?

I think Dave Aspury could have been one of those guys that were talking about it.

You know?

Oxalates probably.

Something like that.

Yeah.

Plus all the parasite stuff now is really sketchy, too.

And they're saying it's in a lot of of vegetables, raw vegetables.

Parasites in almost anything.

If you let your dog lick your face, you got parasites in it.

And that brings me to what I've been working on since November.

I'm getting rid of what I call the five P's.

If you include parasites, it's six P's.

It is plastics, preservatives, pesticides, processed foods,

products, you know, everyday products and parasites.

And so I've been going through and I made a long list, and I'll show you that list at some point, of all the things that I'm trying to change and get rid of out of my diet and you can actually add PFAs phthalates to that p list you know it's funny that they're all peas but

yeah I've been cutting all that stuff out of my diet so I changed all my cookware no more plastic I drink I don't drink out of plastic bottles even these are bad aluminum like not but they're they're coated in plastic oh they are so inside they have plastic in them so yes I didn't know that so all cans have plastics in them?

Yes.

All soda cans, they have a plastic inner lining in them.

So not trying to not cocoa love.

This is delicious.

It just has to do with all cans.

They have an inner lining in them of plastic.

So I got rid of plastic bottles.

I carry around a stainless steel cup with me everywhere.

It's over there.

I changed no more plastic,

you know, containers.

You know, everybody does their meal prep.

I use glass containers now for that.

I got rid of the

plug-ins.

That was another piece.

Oh, the air fresheners.

The air fresheners, yep.

And the little trees that you hang in your car.

Oh, those are terrible.

Got rid of all of those.

They all have phthalates in them.

And what's crazy is when you smell them, it's like your body actually is not necessarily smelling it.

It's telling you, sending your body a signal to

smell something different.

So it's kind of masking it, but it's not getting rid of those horrible smells.

Wow.

So I'm not a professional in this.

I am not, you know, fully educated.

I'm self-educated in all of this.

I'm an autodidact.

And everything that I've been doing and learning has been alongside Misha Tate, the UFC fighter.

And she has done a lot of...

teaching me.

I spend a lot of time in her hyperbaric chamber to help with my anemia, to help oxygenate my blood.

So I know I'm all over the place with this, but there's so much to talk about.

I don't think we can even touch on it in one hour if you wanted to.

But yeah, I've been doing all that and changing all that, and it has helped some of my health issues.

I went from, I know this is horrible to say, but I went from having two to three month long periods down to having normal length periods now.

So you were having them for two months?

I would have a period for not

the heaviest days would be the first seven to fourteen days.

Yeah.

And then I would have consistently keep going.

Holy crap.

Yeah.

Because they're supposed to be a week, right?

They're supposed to be probably, I mean, normal three to five days.

You were having it for two months?

Two, three months.

For how long?

The last seven, eight years.

Holy crap.

Yeah.

That's insane.

So my anemia was through the roof.

And so going to an animal-based diet, eating red meat every day, eating eggs,

getting carbs, carbohydrates, natural carbs I'm okay with.

So on an animal-based diet, who I found out about the animal-based diet through Paul Saladino.

Nice.

And I'm a big fan of Paul Saladino.

I'm a big fan of

Sean Baker.

Is it Baker?

His last name.

Yeah, I've seen his stuff.

Yeah, and he's the guy who started the carnivore diet.

And it's amazing what you see that the carnivore diet has done for people and the animal-based diet has done for people

when you look at what the FDA has

told people for the last God knows how many years and the you talk to Jordan Peterson and he says the food pyramid is a total marketing ploy and a total scam and I 100% believe it 11 servings of of carbs a day

That is absolutely insane because we look at it.

Now that I know what I know

the keto diet's not wrong you just have to do it right and a lot of people do the keto diet wrong and that's what I was doing so I leaned more into the animal-based diet which again is

red meat I eat a lot of grass-fed beef I'm eating raw milk It's hard to find in Las Vegas.

I eat raw kefir, which you can find at Sprouts.

I'm eating raw cheese as much as possible.

I don't know if you saw me bring in a hunk of raw cheese.

No, I love raw cheese.

Yeah.

And

I also am like eating frozen blueberries.

I'm eating raw honey.

And the big one I'm eating just started recently is raw liver.

I eat grass-fed raw liver.

And I tell people all the time, because I put videos up of it on my stories, don't call me liver queen because I don't love this.

I don't love raw liver.

But I eat it raw because if you cook raw liver to 160 degrees, that will will get rid of the bacteria.

It will also get rid of all the nutrients that you're taking the raw liver for raw liver for in the first place.

Did you get inspired by Liver King?

Not at all.

It had nothing to do with Liver King.

It had to do with Paul Saladino.

Okay.

Yep.

He eats raw liver every day.

And it's funny because I was looking at some of the podcasts you did.

One of the guys on there said he started losing all the hair on the front of his legs because of an overabundance of vitamin A.

Liver has a ton of vitamin A and you can definitely have issues from the toxicity of it.

So I feel like Liver King was doing people an injustice by telling them to eat all this liver

and potentially, you know, hurt themselves or kill themselves on it because of how toxic it is.

So I eat half an ounce a day of raw liver and that's it.

I probably can do a little bit more than that because that works out to three and a half ounces a week.

They say say between four and eight ounces a week, but you don't want to eat a ton of it because of that toxicity.

What about the bull testicles?

I have not tried.

What do they call those?

Rocky mountain oysters?

Is that what that is?

Something like that.

Liver King eats them.

Yeah, no, nope.

Sorry.

Those are probably hard to find.

I haven't seen those anywhere.

I don't know.

I buy all my meat from the butcher block,

and I haven't searched their freezers to see if they have bull testicles, but they have kangaroo kangaroo and they have camel and they have elk.

You know, they have venison there.

I'm a fan of elk and venison.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I have a freezer full of deer right now.

Oh, yeah?

That you hunted or that you bought?

What did I hunt?

Oh, wow.

Yeah.

Where were the deer at in Nevada?

So the deer was in Michigan, and I also hunted a ram up in Utah.

A ram?

A ram.

So that's lamb.

Oh, lamb.

Lamb, yeah.

There's wild lamb out there?

Well, I mean, that particular one, I was on a ranch.

Oh, okay.

So it was a 65-acre ranch, and it was my first time hunting.

So I went, I got a turkey and I got a ram.

Nice.

And as much

hunted meat as I can put in my freezer, I am down to do.

I'm looking to get another freezer right now so I can buy a quarter cow and

quarter grass-fed cow and put that in my freezer.

I've been looking into that because you save a ton of money.

Yep.

Because it's like a couple thousand, right?

I'm a big fan.

Well, that's not why I want to do it.

I want the healthy meat.

I don't want the farm processed meat just like the farm processed, the farmed salmon.

Oh, I wouldn't have either horrible.

It's horrible.

And we go back to talking about parasites, the amount of parasites in those meats.

Just seafood in general too with parasites.

I cut back sushi heavily.

I cut back sushi as well and I love sushi so much.

I used to go to sushi neco all the time.

Right.

And I went to

sushi, I went to Jenga.

Jenga.

Jenga over on Flamingo and I love that place so much.

But because of the of the parasites, I have cut back a ton and the microplastics and the microplastics, exactly.

Yeah, those are awful.

And that's, I mean, again, changing all the all the stuff in my life as much as possible.

Like, wait till you see the list.

And there's a list of things I have that I'm thankful I didn't do.

And one of them was the vaccine.

I am so thankful I didn't do the vaccine.

Same.

And I'm also thankful I didn't do any tattoos.

And some tattoo ink is good, but some of it is really bad.

So that's actually affecting people, tattoos?

How so?

Yeah, there's there's toxicity, excuse me, toxicity in the inks.

And I'm trying to think what else.

After I got my boobs done,

I stopped wearing bras

and I started wearing sports bras.

So the sports bras that I've worn for the last, you know, almost 20 years have been cotton, mostly cotton.

They have a little bit of Hispanics in them, but they've been mostly cotton.

Do you know that there's phthalates in a ton and forever chemicals in a ton of the athletic wear that we wear and a ton of the

shein shine

and team moose stuff?

The fast fashion stuff.

So there's tons of phthalates and forever chemicals and BPAs and all that kind of stuff in those things.

And I, for the last 20 years, have worn fruit of the loom

sports bras, which is think, I'm very thankful because that's where all our sweat ducks are, all the things that are really important that absorb this stuff.

I'm just thankful that out, not out of knowledge, just sheer coincidence that I did that.

Yeah.

Apparently some of those boob jobs, they use poor quality materials.

Right.

The bags?

Yeah, the bags.

And it leeches into the bloodstream, right?

Yeah, I have to do some research on that.

I'm trying.

I'm trying to get through everything, all the products, everything that I've done, you know, everything I've done in my past and everything that I'm doing currently in my future.

And the list is long.

If I can change 50 to 80% of what I've done or what I'm doing, I think that if I don't already have some kind of long-term disease and cancer, that I potentially won't get it.

You could detect that now too with Pernuva.

What is Pernuva?

Full body MRI scan.

Oh.

Yeah, it detects disease pretty early.

Yeah, look into them.

It's exciting that these companies are starting that are more preventative now.

Is there somewhere in Vegas that you can get that done?

I don't know if they're in Vegas.

It might be in LA, but but there's a lot of these preventative tests now that you could do, like blood tests, gene tests.

Have you done any of those?

I just did a blood test last week, so I haven't gotten all the results back.

Which company did you use?

Oh, I didn't use one of the companies.

I actually did my annual at the doctor and then gave him a list of all the blood testing that I wanted to have done.

Nice.

That's cool.

Yeah, because if you don't do that, they'll just test basic stuff.

Correct.

It won't be copper.

It was like fighting with my doctor.

He looks at the list.

He's all, I wouldn't normally prescribe half this stuff.

I I said, yeah, but I want it.

Right.

And so I went through and then I talked to Quest Diagnostics to see what my insurance was going to cover.

And fortunately, everything I chose, my insurance.

Really?

That's rare.

I feel like it wouldn't.

So I bet you there's a lot that

I missed.

But I'm still learning all of this.

Nice.

And you make your own sunscreen too, right?

I do.

How do you do that?

So I take the beef tallow that I render from Beef Fat

and you mix it

unrefined coconut oil beeswax and um

oh my god why did I just space that

beeswax

and zinc oxide so unrefined coconut oil uh the beef tallow that I render and beeswax and um zinc oxide.

Okay.

I love coconut oil.

I use it for oil pulls.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

You do that.

Yeah.

What do you, what do you think of it?

Uh, amazing.

if you go back to my first episode my teeth were so yellow okay yeah i've been thinking about doing that so you use unrefined coconut oil no i use coconut oil what's the difference so unrefined it doesn't go through a lot of the processing so it's a little bit healthier really okay i gotta look into that so um you can get organic unrefined coconut oil where can you get that at i mean even

I don't know how good a quality, but even

Walmart has the unrefined coconut oil.

I didn't even think about that.

So even just coconut oil is processed.

That's crazy.

Yep, and that goes into seed oils, right?

Yeah.

You look at seed oils, the process, and you know, the scam that canola oil is.

It is such a bad thing for our diets.

I've removed all those from my diet as much as possible.

So, I'm cooking with homemade butter.

I make butter at home.

And I also am using beef tallow.

I'm staying away from olive oil even as much as possible.

Wow.

Because a lot of the olive oil is scams.

Like they're mixed with and rendered down with a lot of canola oil often.

So unless you read your labels and see where your olive oil is coming from, there's a good chance you're not getting true olive oil.

I could see that because there's no way they can make it for five bucks at the grocery store.

It's what they sell it for.

So that's why.

Don't buy your olive oil at the 99 cents

or the $1.25 store, whatever it's called now.

I buy my olive oil from Brian Johnson because I know

he third-party tests it and everything.

So I've been looking at Brian Johnson a lot lately, and I know he spends millions and millions of dollars in doing everything he's doing.

But everything that he is doing,

I look at his diet and so on and so forth is so different that what I see, the peers around me and the people I look up to are not doing what he's doing.

Well, yeah, he's vegan, so that's a huge difference.

Plus, he's taking 120 supplements a day.

Right.

And to me, I mean,

I guarantee his supplements are high quality, but I stopped taking a lot of my supplements, and that's why I switched over to raw liver.

Because the supplements that you get, if you're looking at the jar, has tons of fake, you know, synthetic supplements.

We're talking about folic acid instead of folate, which you can get folate in meat and in liver.

And we're talking about...

cyanocobalamin instead of actual b12 that's a synthetic b12 so a lot of those things i was going through and i bought iron supplements this week and I'm looking at all the labels and all the crap in them and I was just like, I can't do this.

Like I found titanium dioxide in a ton of the iron supplements and I'm like, why is there titanium dioxide in this?

Why do they need that?

And then a lot of them had cyanocobalamin in them.

I'm like, what is going on?

So, and again, I am not educated when it comes to this stuff.

I just know all the research that I have done that some of those things are really bad.

So I made sure sure when I got the iron supplements, there's no coating on them.

They're little white pills that, you know, if you're not careful, it's going to dust off and they're going to, like, if you put it in a plastic bag, they'll probably end up disintegrating.

You know, because

they don't have those coatings on it.

I'd way rather not have the coating on them.

You know, I'd rather throw it to the back of my throat and hope it doesn't hit my tongue and, you know, I don't want to taste it.

But that's, that's what I have to do to get all this crap out of my diet.

That's what I'm going to do.

Yeah, the more natural, the better.

Do you find social media censoring you when you talk about this type of stuff?

So I haven't dove into talking about the health stuff too much.

I do have a separate account for it.

It used to be called Keto Chasers, and I was doing it when I was on the keto diet.

I changed it to Healthy Chasers because of the fact that I'm no longer specifically on the keto diet, but getting into ketosis, I think, is very important.

So I haven't talked about it a ton.

I'm just now starting to put stuff out on that.

Got it.

I've had a couple videos censored.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah, and I'm not surprised.

They're censoring anything

that is hindering big pharma, that is hindering the

food companies, the big corporations, which I'm sure you know this, but I'm not sure everybody watching knows this, that all of the big food companies are owned by the tobacco companies.

So you're talking about the Nestle's, the Kellogg's, the General Mills.

They're all owned by the tobacco companies.

The tobacco companies are excellent at marketing to

our kids and excellent at marketing to us to get us addicted to their foods.

Oh, yeah.

With the sugars and the processed foods.

And, you know,

that's why I think that it's great.

that Robert Kennedy Jr.

has dropped out of the race and gone on Trump's side because I feel like there's no way that big pharma and the healthcare system and the corporations would allow

RFK to get into office with his mission that he's on to make America healthy again.

But with him by Trump's side, if they can get into office, I think he stands to be very successful at what he's trying to do.

Yeah, I'm really excited to see what kind of changes he gets because, yeah, those companies are so good at marketing their children.

I still remember those serial commercials growing up, like the Cocoa Puffs and Tricks for Kids and all that.

And Fruity Pebbles and Fruit Loops and all that stuff.

And it's funny, Oreo, and I love Oreos.

I used to love those.

I love those.

I love Oreos so much.

Oreos just launched a Coca-Cola Oreo.

I saw it going viral on social media and on Facebook.

I commented, all I see is red 40.

Jeez.

One side of the cookie is completely red.

All I see is red 40.

So I go and look up, and someone goes, boohoo, waha.

Like that was their response.

So I go to their page, and this is probably not nice, but I go to their page, and I look, she's overweight.

And I very calmly say back to her, well, perhaps if you were concerned about stuff like this instead of making fun of me, maybe your weight and your loved ones' weights would be a lot more in control.

Right.

And, you know, it was funny, the whole thread of people commenting on the Oreos was people excited about the Oreos.

And then my post was all these different people commenting, oh my God, I thought the same thing.

Oh, wow, you know, talking about the Red 40 and siding with me on that.

So

I don't know if you've seen that there's a lot of stuff when it comes to autism.

And they're talking that kids by 2030 or 2035, it's going to be one in two kids that have autism.

They have about one in five right now.

Which is crazy.

Which is insane.

But autism didn't barely exist, you know, back in the 50s, 60s.

As things have changed with our diets and so on and so forth, that's very prominent.

And a lot of them react.

really negatively to heavy metals and to the dyes in our foods.

And that's the Doritos and the Cheetos and all the fruit roll-ups and so on and so forth.

And it's funny.

Have you seen the parasite?

I don't know what it's called because I can't say it, but it starts with C-O-C-H.

It's a red parasite.

I haven't seen it.

That they're using to color food now.

What?

It's in a lot of foods.

And you see they're making crickets in food now, too.

I've seen cricket movement.

Yeah, there's a couple of celebrities out have been promoting that.

I sit there and I wore with, do I want to eat this parasite, you know, that is used to color food or do I want to eat these manufactured color dyes?

I'm going to eat the parasite all day long over those.

It's not a live parasite.

They're using it as a coloring in your foods.

Yeah.

So do I want something natural versus unnatural?

That's that's where I 100%.

So crazy, one and two in five years.

That means everyone watching this, if you're planning on having kids, you got a 50-50 chance.

And if if you are planning on having kids, it's really concerning as far as what your diet is because kids are being born with cancer because of what their parents are eating going into it.

So even the mother, what they're eating.

And the father.

Not just the mother.

It's the father as well.

Really?

Yeah.

Because he's half of that baby.

And they don't think about that.

You don't think about that.

And I mean, it's in your alcohol.

If you think about it, your alcohol is made from, like your beer is made from hops that are sprayed with glyphosate.

And glyphosate is one of the most prominent

pesticides out there.

And glyphosate is, you know,

it's doing all different kinds of things to your body.

It's an endocrine disruptor.

It is, you know, causing people to be sick.

And that becomes a part of your sperm.

And that gets passed down as, you know, as you have a baby.

Wow, it gets passed through the sperm.

Well, I mean, mean, not directly, but you know, the unhealthiness of it.

I can't say again, please don't take me as I am not the end-all-be-all on this.

I'm doing my own research, and I'm possibly not articulating well.

But yes, I mean, your unhealthy habits are passed through the sperm.

Yes,

damn, that's scary times, man, because glyphosate lasts for decades, they're saying correct, so you can't just get rid of it easily, right?

Right, it's in your system, and then heavy metals as well.

And I mean, they found lead in

what are the kids' lunchables?

Oh, yeah, I saw that.

Lead in lunchables.

I mean, it's in everything.

And you have to really pick and choose the way you're going to eat.

So I'm eating whole ingredient foods as much as possible.

I am going to the local farms.

I pick my own fruits and vegetables at the local farms.

I'm picking up pasture eggs.

organic eggs as much as possible.

You know, I'm doing all those things.

We can't get it.

We can't get rid of it.

Like, Like, it's in our rainwater, but we can reduce it as much as possible.

We can make those choices.

And speaking of lunch bowls, did you see Mr.

Beast and Logan Paul just launched a competitor?

No, I didn't.

Lunchly.

Really?

I didn't know that.

So what is their shtick on it?

What is their...

I was disappointed because they had a chance to make that like a healthy competitor, but instead they put a prime bottle, Mr.

Beast chocolate bar, and then processed deli meat, and that's a lunchly.

So they're just going head-to-head.

that's it they don't care about it didn't seem like that i got to read the exact ingredients but i feel like that was an opportunity that they could have you know made some movement on the health well especially with prime having lawsuits against it for having certain ingredients in some of their prime bottles i don't think all of the prime products have it but i think it was

i i don't remember exactly what what substance was in it but it was three times the amount that was legally allowed.

Wow.

Yeah, and he went through a lawsuit on that.

Damn.

Recently, within the last year, I believe.

Yeah, I mean, anything artificial is going to be obviously not good for you in some capacity.

And then even

they banned it from Gatorade.

Gatorade had this substance in it as well.

Oh, really?

Well, Gatorade's terrible for you, too.

Correct.

And we drank that all the time as athletes growing up.

Correct.

And they marketed it in a way where...

It was healthy.

Right.

It was good for you on the field to get those electrolytes.

Yep.

And electrolytes are important.

I won't argue that at all.

But getting the right electrolytes and looking at your labels.

That's the biggest thing.

I can't tell you, I probably annoy the hell out of people all the time.

I look at labels of things that they're eating and I'm like, this is crap.

This is crap.

You're not like, what am I supposed to do?

There's an app for everything, but what app is it?

Yuca.

Yeah, I used yuka.

I don't always agree with yucca because of me being on the animal-based diet.

Yucca,

for example, I use coconut aminos to make a garlic sauce, an Asian garlic sauce that I used to cook with.

And when you scan it in yucca,

it will

mark it as being bad and then give me referral to all these different soy sauces.

Well, guess what?

I'm trying to get soy and that estrogen out of my out of my system.

I don't want that.

And so I'm using the

coconut aminos instead, which has no soy in it.

And the the reason why it marks it as bad is because it's got too much sugar.

Well, it has blossom nectar, which again, going back to what I'm

doing in my diet, natural sugars is okay.

I'm not trying to do any processed sugars, and I'm definitely not doing any erythritols and xylitols and all the fake sugars, except for allulose.

Have you heard of allulose?

No.

So, allulose,

and again, don't quote me on this: cellulose is the closest thing you can get to sugar without actually being sugar.

It doesn't,

your body doesn't digest it, so it just passes it through.

It's probably about 70 to 80 percent the sweetness of sugar.

And of anything that I've seen out there and all the research that I've done, it is the only sugar substitute that has been, that seems to be doing good, but it's a lot newer than erythritol.

At one point, people were like, erythritol, xylitol were great, and now they're showing to be toxic, causing heart issues, heart conditions, and so on and so forth.

And when people say monk fruit, okay, monk fruit's great as long as it doesn't have erythritol, but it is often binded with erythrol.

Wow.

So, allulose.

I got to look into that because we like baking at our house.

Yeah.

And the cool thing is, a lot of people don't know the secret.

If you use allulose in your ice cream,

or even in your cookies, it makes them softer.

It doesn't harden the way sugar does if

you don't do the ice cream right, you know, if you want to just make your own ice cream at home, the oululus actually keeps your ice cream softer.

Wow, good to know, because I love soft cookies.

People that eat the hard ones are freaks.

Yeah.

Like, what do you think?

They make them crunchy around the edges and soft in the middle.

Oh, yeah.

It has to be soft in the middle.

Like when it's hard the whole way through.

Do you know how hard it is to say no to crumble cookies?

I don't like crumble.

It's too sweet for me.

Yeah, they are.

They're very sweet.

But I'm just saying those kind of cookies cookies in general is very hard.

Oh, yeah.

The average person can't turn that down.

Right.

But I mean, again, you're.

It's like 50 grams of sugar in one cookie.

No.

And that's another thing.

I don't drink coffee.

So

I never got into drinking, you know, Starbucks.

And when I would, every once in a while, I would have a frappuccino, but I'm having a 1500-calorie drink that the only way I drink it is if I put all the sugar, all the caramel, all the whipped cream to hide the coffee taste.

So, why am I drinking it at all?

Wow, there's that many calories in that.

That's kind of cool.

I think it's something like 1500.

Yeah, there's no point in drinking it at that point, then.

Yeah.

All the calories and sugar.

That's not even coffee at that point.

Right.

Yeah.

So, I mean, if I were to drink straight coffee, I just never acquired a taste for it.

And the same thing with alcohol.

Never required a taste for alcohol either.

Yeah.

Well, that's probably good for you.

Yeah.

Agreed.

When did you go blue?

Like with the hair and the nails and everything?

Oh,

the blue has been coming up on six years and uh what's really funny is people ask me well why blue well blue is my favorite color but at the time I was working for my free cams are you familiar with my for cams my free cams it's a cam website like you know the the dancers and the strippers and it's it's they actually the owner of my free cams owns only fans now oh wow yeah okay so it was like a before only fans thing it still exists and that's one of the biggest sponsors of the porn convention every year but i worked for them as a photographer.

They would hire me to go to all the porn conventions across the country and sometimes in Canada.

And I would shoot photos of the girls as they're camming at the My Freak Cams booth in, you know, whatever city we're in.

And then we would do all different kinds of events.

He would, he would get...

you know, Diplo to spin for a party of 200 girls, and no guys were allowed except for the three guys at the top of the company.

And

anyways, a lot of the girls had different color hair.

And I had told myself a long time ago that I wasn't doing no more drastic hair changes.

No more.

I chopped off my hair once.

I went pitch blonde once.

No more

drastic hair changes.

But for over a year, I wanted blue hair.

So I finally was like, okay, I'm going to do it.

Nice.

Now you got to find some natural hair dye.

Right.

Well, actually, I think the

hair dye, I haven't looked into it yet because, like I said, I'm going down the list.

It's a process.

But the hair dye i use i think is vegan oh nice yeah okay that's good at least yes yeah because a lot of the beauty products man i feel bad for these women because social media makes them want to look beautiful and then put all this toxic chemicals all over their bodies yep and that's i mean yuka doesn't even begin to cover a lot of those products so there is another website that does research and a lot of the products that you use and i forget what it's called Text me it and I'll link it below so people watching can find it.

I forget what the web starts with an E.

Is it a site or an app?

It's a website.

Okay.

And it will check a lot of the products that you are using in your everyday lives.

Yeah, because the makeup, the body wash, the deodorant.

But it's all skincare stuff too, is that they're checking.

Nice.

Fortunately, my

foundation through Mac is pretty good according to that website.

Nice.

That's good.

So I was like, oh, thank God.

There's some deodorants I used to use that would score zero out of a hundred.

I was like, wow, I was using that for years.

Right.

Isn't that crazy?

So my body wash is like that.

It's a high score.

Yeah, it's a low score.

Oh, it's low.

Yeah, it's bad.

What brand were you using?

Not to put them on the spot, but

I use Swagger by Old Spice.

Yeah, my deodorant was Old Spice.

So, so the Old Spice deodorant didn't score that bad on Yuka, but the body wash scored bad.

Oh, my deodorant, I used that one and Gillette, and they were both

possibly, but no, I checked it recently.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, so I switched over to

a more natural deodorant, but I ended up having an allergic reaction to it.

Damn.

So I'm still in the process of figuring out what deodorant I want to use.

But I'm making my own skincare now.

I'm making my own tallow balm and I put it, you know, all over my skin.

And it has made my skin, my heels, my hands the most soft.

Really?

From tallow?

Yeah.

I need to try that because my lips have been chopped.

And I put it on my lips.

Yeah, in Vegas.

And then my hands are always pretty rough.

I'll bring you some.

Okay.

A little tallow on the lips?

Yeah, I'll bring you some.

I have some jars at home.

Does it smell like meat?

No, so I render it three or four times to get rid of the meat smell, and then I put doTERRA essential oils in it.

So that's another thing.

People have no idea.

If you're looking for essential oils, say on Amazon, if you do deep dives into some of those, a lot of them are coming from China.

A lot of them...

coming from China and the products even at Whole Foods.

I don't know if you know this, a lot of the ones that come from China, there's no regulations there.

so they might put organic on the bottle and on the label but it's not necessarily organic wow yeah you can't trust it a lot of people trust that o-word organic you know

and you know i switched over to tons of organic stuff

but I know that it's a marketing ploy and there's certain ways around things that that companies get to be able to use that organic label, but it's not necessarily organic.

But at the end of the day, I feel like organic's going to be better than non-organic.

Probably, yeah.

Even candles gotta be careful.

Candles, yep, I cut candles out, and then Misha made me a candle.

I was like, okay, I trust this one.

Yeah, yeah, so crazy.

I just everyday items we use for years growing up.

No more, what's the spray?

Febrise?

No more.

Oh, hell no.

My freshman year in high school, we were called Febreze and Freshman, and we brought Febreze cans to the pep rally.

We probably took months off our lives just spraying it all over the place.

Yeah,

I mean, everything,

if it comes from a U.S.

company, chances are it's really bad.

Crazy.

Well,

unless the small companies, the you know, the companies that you find online that are making their stuff

as natural as possible.

But then they get acquired by the big companies.

So then you've got to find a new one, and it cycles every six months.

Yep.

You know, it's unfortunate.

Well, I'm glad you shed some light on this.

It was cool hearing your story.

Where can people find you and learn more from you?

Oh, I have so many social media accounts, but I use Tracy Guns for my firearms stuff the most.

I also use Ms.

Tracy Lee, so M-S-T-R-E-C-Y-L-E-E,

on Instagram, I'm on YouTube, I'm on Facebook, I'm on Twitter, I'm on all of them.

So

I'm easy to find this my bright blue hair.

There we go.

We'll link below.

Thanks for coming on, Tracy.

Oh, thanks for having me.

Yep, thanks for watching, guys, as always.

See you next time.
