One heavy meal a day can take
up to 70% of your energy stores
for the whole 24-hour period.

How can I keep my energy levels high,
especially in the afternoons?
This is a question that comes up all the time
because we are living in a toxic world right now
and fatigue, not only, we used to see it like 10 years ago,
mostly it was in people over the age of 30
because their hormones start to decrease
or they start becoming imbalanced and many other factors,
thyroid, adrenal burn out and stress and everything.
But now, you're literally seeing fatigue in children.
And that's, as a kid, I don't remember,
I remember I had just tons of energy
and I did not really eat that healthy either,
when I was a kid, but I remember,
I don't remember being tired at three in the afternoon.
I remember wanting to stay out until my mom or dad
rang the bell for me to come back in 'cause I
was out in the woods playing.
The first thing I always ask people when they ask me
what can I do to increase my energy levels
and why am I so fatigued in the afternoon
is I always ask them, well,
what is the root 'cause of your fatigue.
Let's get to the bottom of it.
Why are you feeling fatigued in the afternoons?
Now, you might have a B12 deficiency.
When's the last time you've done some blood work?
You might have some thyroid issues.
You might have some hormonal imbalance.
You might have a toxic lifestyle because the accumulation
of chemicals and toxins that are coming in
to the system on a regular basis can cause fatigue.
Your body just doesn't have enough energy left in it
to break those chemicals and toxins down
and eliminate them.
How healthy is your gut?
How healthy is your liver?
Usually when the liver becomes congested,
you're going to start becoming fatigued.
It was interesting,
I don't know if you've watched my fasting videos,
but I did an 18-day, water only fast,
and during that research,
doing interviews and looking at the doctors in the 1920s,
30s and 40s, they would say that we
are really only supposed to eat one meal a day.
Doctors now are able to measure Kcal
and energy expenditure in the body.
People are theorizing that even one meal a day,
one heavy meal a day can take up to 70%
of your energy stores for the whole 24 hour period,
to break that one meal down.
When you ask why am I, why are my energy levels decreasing
or why am I fatigued in the afternoon,
think about what your body has to go
through every single day to deal with.
If you have, you eat breakfast and then you eat snacks
and then you're eating lunch,
basically all your energy that you have
in your body is being used for digestion,
it's being used to try to process the chemicals,
the toxins, to eliminate 'em.
And then age definitely has a factor to play
in that whole what is the root cause
of my low energy levels.
As we age, we age.
That's just a common fact.
How much exercise are you doing?
That has a role to play in your energy levels.
Stress, stress has a huge part to play
in your energy levels, because when you're stressed out
and you're in the sympathetic state,
your body is sucking all that energy because
it's bringing that blood flow and your heart rate goes up
to the internal organs in order for you to run
because in a state of stress,
you're really in a fight or flight response
and your body
is conserving that energy
but also, utilizing that energy just in case
you have to fight for your life or run as fast
as you can or something like that.
If you are feeling low energy,
recommend doing a intestinal cleanse,
look at some good probiotics,
reduce the amount of food that you're eating,
start a little bit of an exercise program,
reduce your stress levels,
look at the amount of alcohol that you're drinking.
You might wanna reduce the amount of alcohol and sleep.
You know, sleep is very, very important so you have
that amount of energy that you need going into the next day.
But all-in-all, looking at your lifestyle,
looking at are you exposing yourself
to any negative chemicals or toxins
or environments in work.
Are you exposing yourself to any negative toxic foods,
beverages at home
and eating a lot healthier,
because good food will actually give you energy.
Are you eating dead food,
are you cooking your food in the microwave?
Those are also going to take a lot of energy from you
as opposed to giving you energy.
What's going to give you more energy is going to be
pure, clean water and pure, clean food.
Because live food, raw foods are going to be packed full
and nutrient dense of energy.
That's what you need to look at is what can I do
to improve my energy levels.
I'll tell you one thing that I've noticed also
in the last three to five years,
that I'm seeing is a huge drain
on people's energy levels is harmful organisms.
People, the last three or four years,
I've talked to many doctors and we have
an epidemic right now that people are contaminated
with fungus, yeast, mold, worms, bacteria,
microplasms, prions, all of these harmful organisms
that are accumulating in our system.
Those harmful organisms will actually take your nutrients
from you and then they go to the bathroom in your system.
When they go to the bathroom in your system,
they secrete isopropyl alcohol, formaldehyde,
phenol, very toxic chemicals.
One of the things we do, if someone has low energy levels,
and we do this with everybody anyway
is always do and recommend a harmful organism cleanse.
A harmful organism cleanse supports
your body's natural cleansing processes
to eliminate all of those bugs or harmful things
that are living inside of your body.
The world that we live in now,
we have to look at those and we have to take,
especially when people eat sugar, a lot of sugar.
They're going to have a higher content.
If people eat sushi, they're gonna have a higher content.
But that's something that you wanna take a look at
and especially if your energy levels are low,
do cleansing.
The cleansing process that we found that works the best
is cleanse and heal the gut, cleanse the liver,
cleanse the harmful organisms,
and then cleanse all the chemicals
and heavy metals out of your system,
and that's probably the fastest rejuvenation
except for fasting, like doing juice fasting,
which you can do in conjunction with that
or any type of water only fasting.
If you have any additional tips, recommendations,
I would love to hear 'em.
Please post them in the comments below.
If you have any additional questions regarding
this video, let me know and we will be sure
to answer those as well.
I use, also, if I feel like I'm running
a little low on energy, I like B12.
I take a B12 supplement, making sure that it has the methyl
and the adenosylcobalamin in it.
Ginseng also works pretty good
to give you a little energetic boost.
And believe it or not, iodine as well.
I'm a big fan of iodine.
Not the iodine that you're gonna find in the drug store.
Do not take that.
I'm a big fan of the detoxified Nascent Iodine
and that will help cleanse and rejuvenate your body
because most people have an accumulation
of fluoride and chlorine and bromine.
If you ever eat any bread,
most likely you're getting bromine.
If you ever eat out at a restaurant
that uses tap water to cook all their food,
you're gonna get fluoride and chlorine,
or if you swim in a swimming pool or if you drink tap water.
