Speaker 2 Because your mind was awake.

Speaker 1 Yeah, my mind was just like everywhere thinking of so much things and I couldn't like shut my brain down. My dad said sunscreen can be bad for your skin and there's chemicals in it.

Speaker 1 So I don't put sunscreen on my skin, but if I get like a sunburn or something, my dad, he has like an aloe plant and he'll cut up some and then he'll rub it all over us even if we don't like it.

Speaker 1 And then we look way better the next day.

Speaker 2 you know so many brands of sunscreen have actually been taken off the market because they cause cancer and they're supposed to prevent cancer from the sun a lot of people who are watching this might change their diet because a lot of people have been changing their diet since you started this company what advice would you give to kids your age what would you say if they're like i just love doritos and that's what i want to eat how do they change their habits well if they change their habits

Speaker 2 Hey guys, welcome back to the Ultimate Human Podcast. I'm your host, Gary Brecca, human biologist, where we go down the road of everything anti-aging, biohacking, longevity, and everything in between.

Speaker 2 And today's guests, guests, plural,

Speaker 2 are probably going to be my two favorite podcast guests of of all times. I have brought a new angle to the Ultimate Human podcast, and this is the angle coming from the little guys.

Speaker 2 Right, we're going to hear from two of the healthiest nieces in the world. Welcome to the podcast, Anya and Coral Young.
Can you guys tell the audience which of you is which? What are your names?

Speaker 3 Hi, my name is Coral.

Speaker 1 My name is Anya.

Speaker 2 And how old are you guys?

Speaker 3 I'm seven and I'm nine.

Speaker 2 She's seven, she's nine. So Anya and Coral Young,

Speaker 2 these are my nieces. They are my wife's sister's children.
And they are two of the healthiest young kids in the world.

Speaker 2 And today we're going to go down the road of nutrition in young children because moms and dads, listen up.

Speaker 2 Your kids can learn how to eat, what to avoid, what to gravitate towards, what the healthy snacks they prefer, and they can actually enjoy their bedtimes. So here we go.

Speaker 2 We're going to, it says a speed round of of questions. Are you guys ready?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 2 All right, five questions: rapid fire. What is your favorite food?

Speaker 3 Cherries, probably frozen cherries, too.

Speaker 2 Wow, frozen cherries. Okay,

Speaker 2 do you

Speaker 2 like to go to bed? Yes, yes, mmm, you like getting a good night's sleep, huh? How do you feel after you get a good night's sleep?

Speaker 3 Um, probably really like

Speaker 3 good. And once I like it's a school night, like you might wanna like sleep really good.

Speaker 1 I feel a lot better than not sleeping.

Speaker 2 Yeah that's a good that's a good point. What's your favorite soda?

Speaker 1 I don't have a favorite soda. The only time I would ever drink soda

Speaker 1 like I did this summer was when we went to Italy. We were allowed to have Mexican Coke, but that's because it they actually use real type of sugar and not fake.

Speaker 2 Wow. Is that your favorite too? Yeah.
Okay. What's your favorite drink then?

Speaker 3 Um probably

Speaker 2 uh

Speaker 3 probably like water or sparkling water, but if I had to pick like a special drink it would probably be

Speaker 3 cranberry juice.

Speaker 2 Mm. What about you?

Speaker 1 Um same water and sparkling water, but I would also think um an Ollipop. It's like a seltzer water, but it like it tastes like a soda, but it's really just healthy.

Speaker 2 Wow, big shout out to Ollipop.

Speaker 2 So, guys, when we started this journey, do you remember we did that little q-tip test where we put the q-tip in your mouth and then we got those different colored rectangles, came back, and we put them up on the TV in your in your living room one day, and we were able

Speaker 2 to look at those colored rectangles and say, That's Anya, that's coral. Because one of you is a rule follower, one of you, not so much,

Speaker 2 right? Who's the rule follower over here? Probably Me. Yeah, yeah.
Definitely me. Definitely.

Speaker 3 I can follow rules, but like, sometimes I'll just be really hype.

Speaker 2 You'll be really hyper.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 2 And what about you? Like, sometimes, you know, we didn't really know how to tell our mom and dad that we were feeling anxiety. We were feeling anxious.
Right.

Speaker 2 So why don't you talk about that a little bit? Like, what kinds of things were making you feel fearful and making you feel like a little anxious?

Speaker 1 I feel like

Speaker 1 we used to have these type of pretzels, and my mom and dad didn't notice that it had folic acid in it.

Speaker 1 And I was having them, and I would get sick all the time.

Speaker 1 And then, when it came to the point where you guys figured out that folic acid wasn't good for us, then we stopped having the folic acid and started turning it over to folic acid-free. So, folic.

Speaker 1 I think it's what it's called.

Speaker 2 And yeah, folate.

Speaker 2 And then, and how did you feel after that?

Speaker 1 I felt a lot more better and I felt more happier.

Speaker 2 Right. And what about you, Coral? Why you guys take vitamins every day, right?

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 2 And do you notice a difference when you take your vitamins and you don't take your vitamins?

Speaker 3 Probably because, like, once we take our vitamins, we just feel like calm and we don't get all crazy and like anxiety like my mom died.

Speaker 3 And then when when we do well we just feel like I just sold out vitamins on Amazon to every mother in the world

Speaker 1 I feel when I take my vitamins I feel more happier and more calmer and I don't feel like I want to express my madness to other people and just express it on to them when they don't when they didn't actually mean it and it just makes me sometimes want to flick people off but I don't ever do that I don't ever do that when you mean flick flick people off, you're like, hey, how you doing?

Speaker 1 Chinese middle finger. There you go.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 2 Okay. Well,

Speaker 2 there we have it. I mean, kids pick up the darndest things at school nowadays.
The public school system is just not what it used to be.

Speaker 1 I mean, like, do you know what the word yacht means? Because if you don't, then you should probably go back to school.

Speaker 2 Yes, I know what a yacht.

Speaker 1 Okay, what about Sigma?

Speaker 2 No.

Speaker 1 Okay, you should probably go back to school and learn from it.

Speaker 2 Wow. Hey, this is my podcast.
I'm the smart one here. Okay.
I will ask the questions. Okay,

Speaker 2 so, um, so you take your vitamins, you really enjoy taking your vitamins, you feel a lot better on them.

Speaker 2 And since we started working together, and your mom and dad started really uncovering the um benefits of not eating folic acid and and eating whole foods, what are some of the things that you see your friends eating that you guys just don't eat?

Speaker 3 Probably like s um,

Speaker 3 these cheese puffs and

Speaker 3 um um goldfish and cheez-its and

Speaker 3 like cheet uh cheetos and Doritos

Speaker 1 and like a bunch of stuff where we're just like in my class um so my teacher has to sometimes pack pass out snacks

Speaker 1 and um

Speaker 1 and she for like the last week um she's been passing out snacks where I realize I'm not allowed to have this so I'm gonna back out and not eat snack and tell my mom, Hey, you forgot to pack me a snack.

Speaker 1 I just want to remind you, um, like there's bad snacks that my teacher

Speaker 1 didn't realize that I'm not allowed to have.

Speaker 2 What are some of those bad snacks?

Speaker 3 Probably like

Speaker 3 Cheez-Its and the Doritos.

Speaker 2 What kind of stuff is in Cheez-Its and Doritos? Like, why can't you?

Speaker 3 Polices.

Speaker 1 Polices. And there's um red dye, so dye.

Speaker 1 There is also,

Speaker 1 what do you call it?

Speaker 2 MSG.

Speaker 1 Yeah, MSG.

Speaker 2 Yep, that's a bad one. If you know that word, I will give you $100.

Speaker 2 If you know what MSG words are. I've heard it before.

Speaker 1 I've heard of it before.

Speaker 2 Mono.

Speaker 1 I heard of it before, but I just heard that it was MSG.

Speaker 2 My $100 would save it. It's monosodium glutamate, but MSG is like a flavoring that they use.
I found a lot of Chinese food, too. But food dyes, you're right.

Speaker 2 Folic acid, all of this stuff, they're cooked in seed oils.

Speaker 2 But do you feel like you're missing out? Because what kind of things do you eat that you like to eat so you don't feel like you're missing out on Doritos and Cheetos and

Speaker 2 goldfish and all of those things?

Speaker 3 Probably like cucumbers and fruit and cheese. I noticed you eat a lot of that.
Yeah. And if we have a snack to eat, it would probably be like crackers or like some

Speaker 3 chips that we can have.

Speaker 1 Okay. Like made good, and

Speaker 1 there's some annies that we can have, but in some annies, they put bad things in it that we're not allowed to have.

Speaker 2 Like the folic acid.

Speaker 1 Yeah, like the birthday cake ones we're not allowed to have.

Speaker 2 You know, when you see things like birthday cake and some of these things, you know, not the actual birthday cake, but birthday cake flavor, you know, there's preservatives, right?

Speaker 2 And sometimes those aren't the best things for you guys to eat, but you don't look or sound like you're missing out on your favorite snacks. What are now like some of your favorite things to eat?

Speaker 2 Because I see you guys eat a lot of veggies, you eat a lot of carrot sticks, you eat a lot of tomatoes, blueberries. I see those on your treat trays all the time.
It makes me so happy. But

Speaker 2 just so like other kids out there are going, ooh, I couldn't eat that. I like Doritos.

Speaker 2 You know, tell me why you don't feel like you're missing out.

Speaker 3 Well,'cause, like, if I was missing out, then I would be probably kind of happy because if i ate all of that stuff it's like bad for you and it has like bad stuff in it and like your parents like don't know that so it's but how does it make you feel you you told me one day that you notice a difference when you eat that kind of food yeah um when i eat all that type of food um

Speaker 1 i um i don't feel good and sometimes i get a stomachache and i don't and i don't like um feel like like my normal self when I when I don't have that

Speaker 1 like when other people are eating like cake with gluten and they're eating um they're eating Burger King and they're eating all that stuff.

Speaker 1 I'm looking on the bright side because I know that when I eat that stuff I become mad and that I don't feel good and then sometimes I express it on my mom and then I express it on my mom.

Speaker 1 And then I kind of uh go to

Speaker 1 no and then I kind of just go to a corner and express my feelings about myself.

Speaker 1 So I'm happy I don't eat on myself. That's called timeout.

Speaker 1 No, not timeout, but I mean like I just put myself there.

Speaker 2 You put yourself there. Because sometimes you just feel so much anxiousness or so much anxiety that you just want to just leave the room and go be by yourself and just let it calm down.

Speaker 2 And I've seen you do that before. Do you feel a difference when you eat bad food versus when you eat the good foods?

Speaker 3 I eat like Dairy Queen or of McDonald's or all of that bad stuff. I would probably get a like stomachache.

Speaker 3 Like when I was with my Nona, I ate bad ice cream and on accidentally and I got a stomach ache. So then I didn't do that ever again until

Speaker 3 until my mom said like I'm okay and the next morning I felt fine.

Speaker 2 Nonas are known for that, right? Nonas break break the rules.

Speaker 1 It's more papas.

Speaker 2 It's more.

Speaker 2 And you notice that Nona broke the rules with the rule breaker, not with the rule follower. They know where the weak chain, the weak link is.

Speaker 1 They know where we have to stop and

Speaker 1 be like, okay, we're going to take a break from this stuff. Let's go and eat something.
Like we go to Food and Thought, and they have these

Speaker 1 ice cream sandwich bars.

Speaker 1 I think

Speaker 1 your wife just got me some

Speaker 2 to eat over. Your aunt Sage?

Speaker 1 is my aunt sage

Speaker 2 that's my wife

Speaker 2 your wife

Speaker 1 you referred to her as my wife um

Speaker 1 um

Speaker 1 um i eat those and we have a lot of fun eating them because we eat them and it just tastes delicious and it tastes like something like that other kids are able to taste but um but more in like a healthier way yeah so what do you guys consider to be like some good foods and what are considered to be some bad foods and what are some bad foods you used to eat that you don't eat anymore?

Speaker 3 Well,

Speaker 3 some uh

Speaker 3 goldfish we used to eat that our nona and papa bought for us

Speaker 3 until we heard about this and my mom said you can't eat them anymore. So that's probably one.

Speaker 3 Probably some Cheez-Its that we used to have.

Speaker 2 Yep, I don't see those around the house anymore.

Speaker 3 And then um

Speaker 3 probably

Speaker 3 well, those are the only things that I remember.

Speaker 1 So I remember being able to, um, before she was even born, to be able to have, um,

Speaker 1 pretzels, um, and I would just eat a whole bag, like, every day.

Speaker 2 And that's when you actually would feel mad sometimes. Yep.

Speaker 1 And I would yell at my mom and my dad, and then I would pow in a corner.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah, all that stuff. That doesn't you want to take your hats off? 'Cause the you can't even see.
Oh, there we go.

Speaker 2 It's a bright light. Yeah.
Take off the ultimate.

Speaker 2 We just had to promote the ultimate human swag here.

Speaker 2 It's the hottest selling item on Amazon. They can't get it in stock anywhere in the world.
These shirts are flying on the shelf. You two are lucky to have those.

Speaker 2 So what kinds of things do you do you ever tell your friends this?

Speaker 2 Like, hey, maybe the reason why you're sad or the reason why your tummy's upset or the reason why you get angry or you feel anxious or anxiety, maybe it's what you're eating.

Speaker 2 And do you ever talk to them about maybe you could try changing your snacks and change the foods you're eating a little bit?

Speaker 3 Well, I don't really say that, but I say, like, when I wore this shirt to school, I said, I'm in an ultimate human with my Aunt Sage and Uncle Gary.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 I eat healthy food, so not like all of... all the bad stuff like Doritos and Cheez-Its and all that stuff that we already talked about.

Speaker 2 Well, if you're eating so much healthy food, why are your teeth falling out?

Speaker 3 These are because because

Speaker 1 she's sick. Like she's seven.

Speaker 3 She's like, I lost a bunch of teeth.

Speaker 2 Let me go. Oh, I thought maybe like on the side you were having sugar and your teeth were falling out.

Speaker 3 No.

Speaker 2 They're coming back.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 And you guys are so coughy.

Speaker 1 Well, you didn't. Well, that happened from a friend.
She kind of had the cough and then she kind of spread it.

Speaker 2 Gave it to us. So I love that you're coughing right into my microphone because that's usually my chair.
I'm curious. So that's great.

Speaker 2 Well, she kind of did that. Yeah.
And, you know.

Speaker 2 see, the suggestion that you need to cough is making you cough. So, here's the other cool thing that I love that you guys do.
Now, let's switch to like some of the fun activities that we do.

Speaker 2 Like, first of all, we're not afraid of the sun, right? Nope.

Speaker 2 Nope.

Speaker 1 Well, sunscreen, I think, is my dad said it's there's sunscreen. That's sunscreen can be bad for your skin, and there's chemicals in it.

Speaker 1 And when you put it on your skin, it's just not good for you. So, I don't put

Speaker 1 sunscreen on my skin, but after, like if I get like a sunburn or something, my dad, he has like an aloe plant and he'll cut up some.

Speaker 2 He literally does go cut it right out of the yard.

Speaker 1 He'll cut it out of the yard, cut it, let all the icky stuff flow out of it, and then he'll rub it all over us even if we don't like it. And then we feel

Speaker 1 and then we look way better the next day.

Speaker 2 You feel better the next day.

Speaker 1 Way better.

Speaker 2 Yeah, you can use beef tallow and zinc, things like that. you know so many brands of sunscreen have actually been taken off the market because they cause cancer and they're supposed to prevent um

Speaker 1 not getting

Speaker 2 yeah yeah that seems a little crazy right

Speaker 1 someone um someone who i know told me that um

Speaker 1 it was an adult and they were like you should always wear um sunscreen every day to prevent your skin from the sun in case if you get like um skin cancer and i'm thinking to myself my aunt aunt Sage and Uncle Gary are health people and they tell me that some types of sunscreen that you're wearing right now prevents you getting cancer

Speaker 2 skin cancer this is my personal favorite the brownie bar this is gonna sound crazy it has raw cacao it's got mct oil it's got coconut oil you'll see when you open these you will see the raw food in this pressed bar i mean it's just amazing look at all of the raw food that you can see in there it's actually green cabbage, broccoli.

Speaker 2 I know those don't sound like they go well together, but wait till you taste this. You can press whole foods into a bar like this, and it tastes just like a brownie.

Speaker 2 This is my absolute go-to favorite. If you just keep breaking this apart, you'll just see all the raw food in there.
The raw cacao, you can see the shiny nuts in there.

Speaker 2 This is a great way to sneak vegetables into your kids' day because it's packed with organic vegetables. So you can get broccoli and green cabbage into their diets, and it tastes just like a brownie.

Speaker 2 It's amazing.

Speaker 2 Oh my God. That is so good.
That is my go-to favorite.

Speaker 2 You're going to love it too. Now, let's get back to the Ultimate Human podcast.
That's right. Some, um, well, some of the sunscreens can actually, you know, have been linked to causing skin cancer.

Speaker 2 We can use natural things like beef tallow and zinc and things like that. I mean, do your friends wear a lot of sunscreen?

Speaker 3 Yes. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Well, it's not all sunscreens aren't that bad for you, but the other thing that's really cool that you guys do, talk about some of your favorite things to do at Uncle gary's house we had the cold plunge the cold you gave me a very chilly hug today oh yes

Speaker 2 yes after my four minute cold plunge yes you did four minutes in the cold plunge yes have you done that long um

Speaker 3 i did one minute because like my dad told me if you like go in for too long you get like too cold so i didn't really want to do that my fingers and feet turn white

Speaker 2 but we do lots of other fun stuff right like you've been in the sauna the red light bed the red light bed uh the hydrogen bath the hydrogen bath

Speaker 2 they love you love coming over here and doing the biohacking stuff right which one's your favorite uh probably

Speaker 3 the hydrogen bath why because it's warm

Speaker 3 and it gives like because last time i came here i went in there and it all the stuff like all the scrapes and all of the like stuff that you got hurt with makes it feel better and the next day and it heals super fast

Speaker 1 heals really fast

Speaker 2 Yeah, bug bites or scabs.

Speaker 1 Like I had a full scrape right here and it was like a full-on scrape. Like it was a full-on scab.

Speaker 1 And I just went into the hydrogen bath and I come out, I look at my knee and I'm like, oh my gosh, it's all gone.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's pretty wild how that works, right? It's very anti-inflammatory. So, um, what's what you say your favorite is your the hydrogen bath.
How do you feel when you get out of a cold plunge?

Speaker 3 Probably really nice. Like once you're once you're like sweating hot, you really want to go in it.
And like that's how I feel.

Speaker 3 So like I think that I'm sweating hot and then I go in there and it feels really cold, but it makes you feel really better. So when I get out, I feel really chilly, but

Speaker 3 it's good for your skin.

Speaker 2 How about you?

Speaker 1 Um, so we have a cold punch at our house.

Speaker 2 Well, you want my favorite picture of you guys.

Speaker 2 It wasn't really a cold punch. It was a cooler that your dad put some ice in in and then put some water in and then you guys got in it.
Remember that one before you had the cold punch?

Speaker 1 And so we have a cold punch now, like a real cold punch in our garage. And

Speaker 1 my dad does it a lot before we go to bed because it's supposed to help you like calm down and it just kind of helps you like settle in.

Speaker 2 I remember when I first started my company almost

Speaker 2 Almost 10 years ago, your dad was actually cold punching. I thought he was out of his mind.
And then five years later, I'm like, the cold punch king. I teach cold punch course.

Speaker 2 So sometimes your dad's like way ahead of his time with all the nutrition stuff. Like the aloe plan, I think he got from, I mean, that's been around for centuries, right?

Speaker 2 And sometimes, you know, what's always been around, just the basics, makes makes things a lot better, right? Do you know any of your friends that do any of these things?

Speaker 3 Um, I don't think so, but like some people said they still eat some of the stuff that we do, but they, but some of the stuff that they eat, they don't.

Speaker 3 So I don't think so, because they like never done it, but I think they like jumped in something cold or like had had accidentally gotten their cold pool.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I know some friends who take the vitamins we take, which we call sagey vitamins.

Speaker 2 Yeah, sagey vitamins.

Speaker 2 That's okay. She deserves a credit.
She helped develop them.

Speaker 2 But they're called methylated vitamins. These are vitamins that are already broken down as opposed to the vitamins that you guys had before, like just basic off-the-shelf vitamins.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and some of my friends,

Speaker 1 like one of my best friends who I've known for like ever, they take the vitamins and we went on vacation with them and they all forgot their vitamins and we have like our whole thing of vitamins and we just like pass it all out to them.

Speaker 2 And did they like them? Did they? Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 See, because it's amazing what happens when we put things into our bodies, like vitamins and minerals and nutrients, and then all of a sudden we feel better and our mood improves and our tummy doesn't hurt as so much.

Speaker 2 And we don't feel those sensations of fear, right? Which is what anxiety is. And we don't get so we don't get so worked up.
Do you think that it's actually helped you guys sleep?

Speaker 3 A little.

Speaker 3 Like, I'm not like a deep sleeper, but I sleep really good. So

Speaker 1 I think it helps me.

Speaker 1 Like one night, I forgot to take my vitamins that night, and

Speaker 1 I couldn't fall asleep.

Speaker 2 Because your mind was awake.

Speaker 1 Yeah, my mind was just like everywhere thinking of so much things like tests and all that stuff. And I couldn't like shut my brain down.

Speaker 2 Mm-hmm. That's so much more common than you think.
And most adults have that too. They go to bed tired, but they can't go to sleep because their mind is awake.

Speaker 2 And they start thinking about all the things that they miss during the day. And they start thinking about what they got to do tomorrow.
So, what advice would you give to kids your age?

Speaker 2 By the way, how old are each of you?

Speaker 3 We already seven.

Speaker 2 No, but I'm senile. I'm like Joe Biden.
I forgot. How old are you? Oh, my God.

Speaker 3 I'm seven.

Speaker 2 You're seven? Yeah, nine.

Speaker 1 Remember that? Nine.

Speaker 2 Wow. Maybe somebody's just tuning into the podcast.
Calm down. If you guys are hard talent to work with, I will have a word with your agent.

Speaker 2 We don't have an agent. You have a mom.
That's your agent.

Speaker 1 Wait, that is?

Speaker 2 Yeah. She's your agent, your publicist, your attorney.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. I mean, like, she does make my breakfast for me, my lunch for me, my dinner for me.

Speaker 3 She has to do our lunch. I mean, our laundry and all that.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 So you guys have a whole staff of one person. So congratulations.
But what

Speaker 2 advice would you give to kids your age, seven and nine? What would you say if they're like, I just love Doritos and Cheetos and I love goldfish and I like pizza and I that's what I want to eat

Speaker 3 what would you say to them how do they change their habits well if they changed their habits they would be much more healthier so if they said that to me I'd be like that's all bad stuff so you guys should change your habits so maybe eat some like cucumbers or tomatoes or fruit and first eat the healthy stuff first and then eat get your your dessert.

Speaker 2 That's good advice.

Speaker 1 I think that my advice would be

Speaker 1 try to like stop eating all of that stuff and look for things like

Speaker 1 so there's like fruit loops.

Speaker 1 No, not fruit loops, fruit roll-ups.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And we weren't allowed to have those until we saw Annie's fruit roll-ups and they

Speaker 1 we were allowed to have it and we've been having them now because they're more healthier, they taste basically like the same thing, right?

Speaker 2 And but what are the benefits of because it's hard when somebody really likes those kind of foods to just stop eating them because they're going to be healthier?

Speaker 2 What are some of the benefits you guys have found from eating healthy foods?

Speaker 2 And what could you say to your friends that, like, hey, if you stop eating that stuff and starting eating healthy foods, here's what's going to happen.

Speaker 3 Well, I would say, like,

Speaker 3 you should, like

Speaker 3 like you should like get better and have like not so mad.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Tummy doesn't hurt.
Yeah. Maybe sleep better.

Speaker 2 Not feel so fearful, so anxious.

Speaker 2 Because I think that, you know, the message I want to get out to the moms and the dads and the kids out there is, you know, some of these behaviors that you have, some of these feelings that you have, I have anxiety, I have anxiousness, I'm scared of going to school i'm up all night thinking about things we call it ruminating on things um my tummy hurts for no reason or sometimes it hurts after meals maybe that all that stuff can be a part of their past because i used to hear you guys complain about that all the time and you don't complain about it at all you guys are never talking to me about your tummies you never you i've never seen you have a temper tantrum i i just found out you can throw the chinese new year i don't actually like that one very much but um

Speaker 2 but right so you actually feel better. So, actually, on the other side, there's big benefits, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah, um,

Speaker 1 so like when you get to, like, when you're like getting all those

Speaker 1 better benefits, it just makes you feel like you have, like, a much more happier life and it'll um prevent your future to like maybe be better and like you'll you'll um

Speaker 1 you'll like um

Speaker 1 you'll like

Speaker 1 like when you are are eating all that stuff, like how we used to eat some of that stuff

Speaker 1 um I would always um

Speaker 1 I my stomach would always hurt and I would be like I didn't eat anything bad today

Speaker 1 which I thought wasn't bad but now I realize that it's bad because of all vir the folic acid and all that stuff that's in it it's um

Speaker 1 it's preventing my brain to not um like feel well and then it like makes my stomach not feel well and then I don't feel well and then I get sick and then it's just like no it doesn't turn out to be a good day when you think you're having a good day

Speaker 1 when you think you're having a good day eating all the stuff the junk food yeah um eating the Doritos and you're like oh my gosh this is the best day ever

Speaker 1 Really, it's gonna turn into the worst day ever and you're gonna have a stomachache, you're not gonna feel good and all you're wanna you're gonna wanna do this is for the boys out there all you're gonna wanna do is lay in your bed and play video games on an iPhone or a tablet please don't do that at home that's gonna that's bad for your brain bad for your brain

Speaker 3 bad for your brain you should like

Speaker 2 I would actually agree with that

Speaker 3 going back to the boy part when Anya said you shouldn't like watch all that bad stuff on like YouTube or all that stuff

Speaker 3 but like if you work out or go swim in the pool or jump in the pool and like all

Speaker 2 that stuff yeah yeah when you're exercising and running around the yard your dad's chasing you around the yard you guys have a trampoline you got a pool you got a jacuzzi you got a crazy little slide thing that you ride the car down you guys are outside all the time I love it and that's how that's how I grew up too so every time that I

Speaker 2 finish a podcast, I ask all my podcast guests the same question. Okay.
And there's no right or wrong answer to this question.

Speaker 2 But what does it mean to you guys to be an ultimate human?

Speaker 1 It means a lot because

Speaker 1 I see it as

Speaker 1 for me feeling a lot more better than some people in the world who are who

Speaker 1 maybe have

Speaker 1 like adults like they could be going to the hospitals and stuff because

Speaker 1 of them smoking.

Speaker 1 And I could look on the bright side side and be like, I'm happy to be an ultimate human because I know the stuff that I'm allowed to have and that will prevent me from not having to go to hospitals and doing all that stuff.

Speaker 1 So true.

Speaker 2 So true. Prevention is the key.

Speaker 3 Well, if I'm really happy that I

Speaker 3 have you and your wife Sage, which is my aunt,

Speaker 3 I'm happy that you guys made this because if you guys didn't make this, me and Anya would still have all that tension or tame terms and anxiety and all the bad stuff that people had.

Speaker 3 So, I'm really happy that you guys made this, and I'm really happy.

Speaker 2 Guys, so much. I think you guys have been my favorite guests.
Is there anything else you want to say before we sign off and say that's just

Speaker 3 all of the people out there who eat hot lunch in all

Speaker 3 well, if you go to Lake Park Elementary, which is main on your school um all the people who eat hot lunch it has bad stuff in it like all of the bread has bad full glass in it all of the stuff in there is bad macaroni and cheese and stuff like that maybe they could bring their lunches from home right

Speaker 1 yeah bringing um more homemade um lunches to school would be better because watching this you would know um to look at the the ingredients and think, does this have folic acid or dye in it?

Speaker 1 And then you would see, like, I can give my child this and that.

Speaker 2 And syrups and things like that.

Speaker 2 Well, I think that's really, really good advice, guys. I think this is going to be one of our most popular podcasts.
Thank you guys both for coming on today. In my mind, you guys are ultimate humans.

Speaker 1 Can I say one more thing?

Speaker 2 Yeah, of course.

Speaker 1 I would like to share my,

Speaker 1 I think they call it a methylation.

Speaker 1 Because I'm proud to say it. yes um so

Speaker 1 i got um

Speaker 1 three reds but and i got a yellow and a green but that's all right because um i probably got it for my nona um

Speaker 1 yes yeah because she has three reds and a yellow and a green that went to your mom went to you well your dad's also got a role in this i think my mom only has a yellow and a green and a yellow and a green i'm pretty sure

Speaker 1 You you never know.

Speaker 1 Um, I'm proud to say that I have three reds because I think it's a good part about my life because I think that I can try to change my attitude from being, um, like an inside out, uh, anger.

Speaker 1 So, color red and try to turn it into a green and try to, um, try to like change like my mindset from being

Speaker 1 angry from, um, kind of having like a bad um

Speaker 1 um like um methylation

Speaker 1 but it's not bad but I mean like um from having all of that um into something good like I can focus on like um

Speaker 1 me like speaking and like me um saying all the stuff that I'm saying and like my emotions.

Speaker 1 It just helps me to remind me'cause my aunt Sage explained it to me. I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 No, you're getting cured off. It's so cute.

Speaker 1 She...

Speaker 2 I'm sorry. It's okay, Anya.

Speaker 1 She, this is happy tears, by the way.

Speaker 2 She explained to me that

Speaker 1 red's a good thing and that.

Speaker 1 And that

Speaker 1 it's a good thing to sometimes have red because you can focus on

Speaker 1 trying to think better and it's just sometimes good for your body to

Speaker 1 remind yourself, um,

Speaker 1 try to think on the bright side that,

Speaker 1 um, you could be like that. You could try to change it and bring it to a green instead of like a red.
Yes. Or like or like you could change it to a yellow and

Speaker 2 just helps. And there's so many kids, Anya.
I'm really glad that you're speaking your heart because there's so many kids that felt the way that you did that don't feel the way you do now.

Speaker 2 They're still trapped in that feeling of anxiousness and anxiety and not understanding why they're mad.

Speaker 2 Can I see that?

Speaker 3 Can I please say my method?

Speaker 3 Yes.

Speaker 2 I love that you guys both know the word methylation.

Speaker 2 That's why, like, I've done a good job in this world.

Speaker 3 If you're like littler, like my age, you'll get like green and yellows. Because, like, if you're like older, like nine and a half world, that doesn't work.

Speaker 1 It just works on, like,

Speaker 1 you don't have to always get a yellow or a green. Like my whole life, I think I've always had three reds and a yellow and a green.
Like that was just your methylation of your brain.

Speaker 2 But the point is, we're not stuck with our genes, right? We can change our lifestyle, which you did. We can change our behavior, which you did.
And you can change your diet, which you did.

Speaker 2 And when that changed, it had no effect on you.

Speaker 2 It used to run your life, you know, mad, sad, anxious, anxiety, poor sleep, all of those things.

Speaker 2 So many people listening to this right now, their kids are going through the same thing and they feel hopeless and they're just, but they don't know where to start.

Speaker 2 And the simple things that you guys did to change your diet and the simple supplements that you take, you don't take any medication. That's the important thing.
You don't take medicine.

Speaker 2 You take vitamins and you change your diet. And you guys feel better.
You look better. You sleep better.
You behave better. You're calmer.

Speaker 2 You cry less unless you're happy.

Speaker 2 So it's

Speaker 3 happy tears. Can I say one more thing? You can say one more thing.

Speaker 3 A lot of people who are watching this might, like, not all of them, might change their diet because if, like, a lot of people have been changing their diet since you started this company, and a lot of people are getting all the 10x health t-shirts and glasses and

Speaker 3 hats and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 Amen. Guys, thank you both for coming.
You are both ultimate humans. Can you come over and give me a hug? Thank you so much.
You guys did such a good job. Congratulations.

Speaker 2 And, guys, that's just science.
