A few days ago, I woke up to some really heartbreaking
news - the death of the Marvel movie star
from the film Black Panther. His name is Chadwick
Bozeman. And after fighting stomach cancer
for four years at a young age of 43 years
old, he died from it. This is devastating
news that brings light to a big problem that
many people are facing the issue of colon
problems. Colon issues should be taken seriously.
So, let's go ahead and discuss them. But before
we get started, I'm Dr. Zyrowski and I started
a natural healing center six years ago in
order to help people just like you to heal
naturally because true health only comes naturally.
I'm passionate about gut health issues because
I've had many of them myself. I've had leaky
gut. I've had small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
I've had ulcers. I've had auto-immune issues
as a result of gut problems. There was a time
where I was constantly bloated, constantly
had pain and cramping, constantly breaking
out in rashes as a result of my poor gut health.
And you may ask yourself how in the world
could one person have so many gut problems.
Unfortunately, it comes as a package. You
don't normally just get one of them. You get
the whole package altogether. I know how life
altering this can be. I understand it. And
I wish I could say that these problems are
getting better, but they're actually getting
worse. According to a recent study in the
journal of the National Cancer Institute,
millennials born around 1990 are two times
more likely to develop colon cancer, four
times more likely to develop rectal cancer
compared to young adults in the 1950s, a period
of time when these issues were at their lowest.
I work with many people who are not given
answers to their gut health issues. They go
to their doctor prior to coming and seeing
me. They tell them all the issues they're
having and they're told that there's nothing
wrong with them. They go back home. They have
all these symptoms. Sometimes they're taking
medication to mask the problem. Sometimes
they're doing nothing at all. And they live
with this for many years until the symptoms
become unbearable. So, they go back to the
doctor's office and then they find out the
bad news – either they developed a very
serious condition, they develop colon cancer,
or they need to get parts of their colon removed.
So why is this happening in the first place
I'm going to share with you my opinion, my
opinion that's based not only on research,
but also my clinical experience of working
with over 15,000 patients. I want our community
of wellness warriors to be able to thrive
and not have to deal with these kinds of issues.
Now, the food industry is where we need to
start this conversation. When you look at
the average packaged food on the shelf, it's
riddled with all kinds of chemicals, preservatives,
and even dyes. And a lot of these foods are
full of ingredients that you can't even pronounce
and you certainly won't find them in nature
because most of these ingredients are made
somewhere in a lab. And I always love these
different food comparisons that you see online.
A lot of times they'll take a product like
a box of cereal that’s sold in the United
States versus a box of cereal that sold in
let's say Australia. Now the box of cereal
that sold in the United States will just be
loaded with a whole bunch of toxic ingredients,
a bunch of lab made chemicals that you can
understand. That same box of cereal that's
sold in a different country like Australia
by the exact same company, the exact same
product will have real whole food ingredients
in it. Why would this happen? Why would a
company that cares so much deeply about the
people who are purchasing their products allow
for this? For one, one country doesn't allow
those chemicals in their food and the United
States always does. The other thing that you
have to look at is that these companies take
the real whole foods out of their ingredients
because they cost money and they replace those
real, whole foods with synthetic lab-made
ingredients. They give you the perception
that it's the exact same thing. However, when
you look at the ingredients, you know that
there's an enormous difference, and this is
really destructive to one's health.
But it doesn't just end there. Imagine that
you understand all those things I just mentioned
about how there's toxic ingredients in the
different foods so you make the conscious
effort to go buy fresh fruits, fresh vegetables,
but the one thing that you didn't realize
is that many of the fruits and vegetables
are just covered with harsh chemicals, like
pesticides, herbicides, cleaning agents, and
then to top it off, many of them are genetically
modified organisms. America has some of the
highest disease rates in the world - higher
than those of third world countries. Hard
to believe considering our modern healthcare
system. Right? But yeah, because we've just
revolutionized medicine and we have fixed
healthcare, it's only the obvious next step
to go in and improve upon nature with genetically
modified organisms. Now, of course you can
see my sarcasm there. There is a reason why
many people react so poorly to many different
grains out there today. Take wheat, for example,
people for years, ate wheat with no problem,
and now most people can't eat it or even digest
it without causing serious health problems
in their body. Your gut is one of your first
lines of defense that actually protects you
from the harsh foods that you may be eating.
Though your body by design protects you from
these chemicals, it was never designed to
protect you from the harsh onslaught that
your gut faces in today's toxic environment.
We have to be consistent about what we don't
like and do like in this world. We have to
be consistent with our mindset on health.
We can't say that we hate cancer answer, but
yet we love the foods that cause it. It's
really important that we move back to a society
that is eating fresh organic food from our
garden, from the local farmer's market. It's
important that we vote with our dollar for
good quality clean ingredient foods and we
don't vote for the harsh chemical laden foods
that are out there in today's packaged manufactured
food environment. It's important that we eat
from nature, but not from a lab.
So, Chadwick, Bozeman, rest in peace my friend.
You're an absolute legend. And to his family,
our community is sorry for your loss. What
I did for our wellness warriors is I put together
a video series of my top gut health videos
that can help you transform your gut health
today naturally. Check it out here. All this
together is very powerful for overall bodily
health but especially cleansing the colon
and getting all these different microbes that
are living in the gut knocked out.
