The Jason Wright Show

Dr. Singh is back! I have to say most of what I know about gut biome I learned from Dr. Marvin Singh. He helped me better understand what exactly the gut biome is, and how it plays such a vital role in our overall health.

In this conversation, we discuss his new book, “Rescue Your Health.” Dr. Singh starts from the premise we must know where we are to get to where we want to go. This is a wide ranging conversation about the markers and data points we must understand to get a strategy for rescuing our health.

What does it mean to “be healthy?” Instead of using statistics based on everybody, we have the technology to see what’s true for you—just you. This means we can see how healthy you actually are—or what could use improvement—and make adjustments from that information.

In Rescue Your Health, Dr. Marvin Singh explains and explores the best that science and technology have to offer us today to better understand our unique health profile. This then allows us to make the best decisions possible for ourselves, or our loved ones. In its pages, Dr. Singh teaches you what tests are available (including his Top Five) so that you can feel empowered to take charge of your health right now.

Each chapter presents the material in easy-to-understand terminology, as Dr. Singh shares his experience using the Precision Medicine approach with his own patients. From looking at your risk factors for certain diseases (such as breast cancer, heart disease, or Alzheimer’s), to assessing the best exercises for your genes, there is something for everyone in Rescue Your Health.

If Precision Medicine is our ticket to creating better health for longer, Rescue Your Health is an

integral first step on that journey.

The Immunity Code by Joel Greene

THE 100,000 HOUR MAN

Joel Greene, CEO and Founder.

He had his 10,000 hours already in before your guru ever began. 

In the 1970’s he was interval training 

​

In 1979 he was doing olympic lifts 3 hours every night.

​

In the 80’s he began studying MCT’s.

​

In 1990 he began studying the Keto diet.

​

In the early 90’s he was doing what would be called intermittent fasting today.

​

In the mid 90’s he experienced the rebound from chronic starvation. You read this today for this reason.

​

In the late 90’s he went through his clean eating phase, his macro phase, his ancestral diet phase.

​

By 2001 he had his first nutrition website publishing the cutting edge research. 

​

By 2006 he came to the end of all the above and discovered none of it worked over time under real life pressure. 

​

In 2007 he authored the first article to the health and fitness community based on the new science linking gut bacteria and obesity.

​

in 2008 his website lookcut.com hit #2 in google for weight loss, with over 1,000 original groundbreaking articles that today represent many of the most widely copied ideas in nutrition.

​

In 2009 he launched  the worlds first diet system based on targeting the gut bacteria.

​

In  2010 he was implementing signal activation of the AMPK pathway. The gurus only began speaking to AMPK in 2017.

​

By 2013 he had the worlds largest body of anecdotal outcomes for body composition targeting the gut bacteria. 

​

In 2013 he published the first article to the health and fitness community on the dangers of MCT oil supplementation.  

​

Today, at 53, on 1 workout a week, eating whatever, whenever, with no drugs, sarms, prohormones, or ergogenic aids ever, he is the world leader in hacking the body. He is the real deal. He has done it longer and always been far ahead. He looks it, he lives it. What the guru’s say is impossible he was living every day before they were guru’s.

He has hacked peak human…

working out once per week, 

eating whatever, whenever,

and does it all on fast food! 

He is the future of real world health and nutrition, today.  

​

As creator of the VEEP Nutrition System, the worlds first commercially available program based on targeting gut communities to effect biomarkers, Joel also is a featured author, speaker, and guest in top tier publications like Muscle and Fitness, 24 Hour Fitness Digital Magazine, CBS Online, Superhuman Radio. His system has also been featured on the Dr. Phil Show where it has delivered astounding life changing results. 

So I think one of the things I’m most proud of is my relationship with my daughters. While I’m totally biased I think they are pretty amazing. What’s more I have a completely different relationship with both of them.

Abby is my little thinker. She and I like to have “solve the world’s problems” sessions where we will riff on politics, social issues, music, movies you name it. Well, since I have her home this week for Thanksgiving I thought I’d let you listen in on one of these conversations.

In this exchange we talk stupid Hallmark movies, good books, the Thanksgiving menu and more. It think you’ll enjoy listening in on a Dad and daughter with twisted senses of humor and love for one another that’s obvious (if I do say so myself.)

Hey there folks! I just wanted to say I hope you’ve had an amazing week. I also hope you’re geared up for a phenomenal holiday season. Here’s what’s coming up on The Jason Wright Show

I’ve put together a lineup of amazing experts on gut health to bring you. Also, if you haven’t had a chance to listen to this week’s episode with Stephen Hussey, go do it. This was such a fun episode with a great dude discussing literature, the modern man, rational thinking and “Love Actually.”

I love the English. As a matter of fact according to Ancestry.com I have more English DNA than the average citizen of the United Kingdom. I also love the film ‘Love Actually’ and Stephen Hussey does not. That’s about the only thing we disagree on in this wide ranging conversation.

Stephen Hussey is a man of letters. He received his Doctorate in Philosophy from Oxford University. He hosts the “Love Life” and “The Speaking Generally Podcast.” He often joins his brother Matthew Hussey on his very popular YouTube channel which boasts over 2 million subscribers.

Stephen is a breadth of knowledge on relationships, literature, writing and life in general. I had so much fun during this conversation. I think you will, too.

Books we discuss

“The Road” by Cormac McCarthy

“Ulysses” by James Joyce

“No Country for Old Men” Cormac McCarthy

“How to Read and Why” by Harold Bloom

“Travels With Charley In Search of America” George Steinbeck

“The Old Man and The Sea” Ernest Hemingway

What if there is a universe where the perfect version of you exists? Can this be possible? In reading Brian Scott’s book “The Reality Revolution” I’ve been motivated to ask some pretty significant questions.

Let’s say you are trying to quit smoking? Why don’t you? What if there is a door you can walk through to a universe where a ‘you’ exists that does not smoke? Is there? If not, why? What if you made the conscious effort to walk through a door in your mind into an alternate universe where you existed as a healthy, non-smoker. Why not walk through it.

Facebook is changing its name to metaverse. This is kind of scary and odd. I think people are living in alternate universes all around us. They try to make their reality our reality. However, their alternate universe crashes into the reality of ours. They solicit and often get the help of politicians and thought leaders to help them build their alternate universe.

Do I like this? No I don’t. However, it’s worth noting. If there are people who can literally convince millions of people to abandon what we all once knew as reality, why can’t you cause yourself to abandon the fact you are a smoker? 

I read there is a retreat where executives and other well heeled people pay $15,000 to attend a zen retreat. What is one of the biggest goals they hope to achieve? The hope to achieve forgiveness of some sort. What if you and I instead of shelling out 15 large just meditated on a universe in which we existed with forgiveness in our hearts? What would that feel like for us? What would it feel like for the other person? What would it feel like for the people around us who never had to hear us rant about the person for which we held bitterness?

What if there is an infinite number of paths in this life we can take to achieve whatever universe in which we hope to live? How do we find it? Further, if we’ve already taken paths, which we certainly have, does the alternate route still exist? 

If I set out to drive from Sulphur Springs to Dallas and head in the opposite direction and end up in Arkansas, does this mean the road back to Sulphur Springs and then to Dallas is no longer available? Of course it doesn’t. It just means I have to start over. If I had an appointment at a certain time it might have been missed, but I can still start over right? Are you willing to give yourself permission to start over?

I remember when I was on a mission trip we set out on a mountain with a GPS that was malfunctioning. We had way points but no treks. We had to guess the route. The problem was the mountain was straight up. There really was no option of just turning and going a different direction. Sleeping on a 80-90 degree angle on a goat trail with no water in sight really isn’t an option.

We had to get it right the first time. This is how we tend to look at life. We think whatever I’ve chosen wherever I’ve gone there I am and there I shall stay. While it’s true wherever you go there you are. It’s not true that you can’t retrace your steps and start over. When given the choice of door A or door B you chose B and regretted it, you might very well still be able to walk through door A where a better universe awaits you.

Don’t think in terms of finality in all decisions you make. Somewhere out there in the future maybe distant, maybe not exists the reality you desire. You just have to be brave enough to keep taking the paths to lead you there even if it means retracing your steps.

I hope to see you in that reality one day.

Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are present in great quantities in human breast milk: the 3rd largest element after lipids and lactose. While numerous studies have determined that breast milk is a great benefit to babies, just what these HMOs—a group of carbohydrates or complex sugars—accomplish remained a mystery for quite a while.

HMO BUILDS THE INFANT GUT & IMMUNE SYSTEM

But numerous studies over the past several decades determined that while they do nothing for a baby’s nutrition, they do play an incredibly important and irreplaceable role in infant health.

HMO HELPS ADULT DIGESTION, IMMUNITY, AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT TOO

As non-digestible carbohydrates, HMOs make their way to the colon and act as a sort of dual prebiotic, where they feed the good bacteria, such as bifidobacteria, and help the body to ward off a variety of infections and inflammations. And as it turns out, what is good for babies, is also good for adults.

Layer Origin Nutrition was founded by scientists and is owned by scientists. We believe there are many layers to our health (physical, mental, external, internal) and that it all originates at the layer of the gut microbiome. Our origin story is simple: circa 2017 we observed the power of Human Milk Oligosaccharides as a prebiotic for the infant gut and realized there was a great need for safe, reliable, and pure HMO supplements. We spent the next three years researching and formulating our HMO prebiotic products, before launching LayerOrigin.com in early 2020.

Today we’re proud to offer the world’s largest line of HMO prebiotic supplements designed to target various layers of health from the origin point: the gut. We know that 70% of the immune system is housed in the gut so it’s incredibly powerful. By modulating our gut bacteria via HMO prebiotics, we can better our digestion, immune health, cognitive function, and lose weight. It’s a life-changing proposition.

Thanks for stopping by,

Author John Roedel

It was a late summer Saturday morning. I was listening to Brian Scott’s “Reality Revolution” Podcast. Brian was interviewing a poet. Personally, I don’t know many poets. I’ve written some poems. I like poems, but this poet was different.

This poet was John Roedel, and he was talking about hearing God speak to him. What started at a low point of his life with satirical posts on FaceBook became much more. John started writing posts as though they were intended to be read by God. Ok. So that’s funny enough. But he took it a step further. He started writing what he imagined to be God’s response.

This birthed the idea for his book “Hey God Hey John: What Happens When God Talks Back” Before John knew it, God was speaking all the time. This led to a beautiful collection of poems. This was a deep, sweet and one of my favorite episodes to date.

Hey God. Hey John.

Hey God. Hey John.

John Roedel is the writer of the popular Facebook conversations (now a book) entitled “Hey God. Hey John.” where he sits down with the Divine to sort out the world, his mental health, why he shouldn’t wear skinny jeans and how to believe in the unseen in our modern world. 

​

The “Hey God. Hey John.” book can be found here. on Amazon.

It can also be purchased from Barnes and Nobles.

November 7th I have the great opportunity to sit down with the Joel Green, author of “The Immunity Code.” This is one of the most important books I’ve read all year. Therefore, I wanted to give you guys a sneak peak with a book review. I cannot more highly recommend this wonderful book. It’s a total life changer.

The immunity code represents a powerful paradigm shift to an immune centric approach aging and health, and how to slow it dramatically in easy, practical steps. A new era has arrived. It is an era where commonalities found in the physiology of the leanest, healthiest, and longest lived humans has been uncovered. The startling discovery is that many of these commonalities can be replicated by anyone, and quite easily. But the key is not found in fitness, or bodybuilding or weight loss, or anything we knew prior. The foundation is an immune centric approach to health and aging. The Immunity Code is simply a new paradigm and an entirely new way think about caring for the body. The new goal is learning to control key aspects of immunity, specifically immune cells called macrophages, to control health and aging. Using new science based techniques, hacks if you will, to steer immunity to slow and reverse aging and drive peak health, you will gain a power everyone seeks and so few find.
