And why won't you let me have coffee? Welcome
to Fit to Be Real. And a little extra, you woke
her up. I mean, she's on top of me. Pepper was
snoring on Carly's lap. Little does she know,
Carly doesn't like dogs, but has two of them.
I do like dogs. No. But it's just like kids,
you know, when you have them. You don't like
other people's? You don't like your own. I love
my own. I don't love other people's. There are
some people that just love all kids. Hello. She
hears you. And I am not one of those people.
I like kids, but I only like my own kids. Merry
Christmas. It's a good thing you are with kids.
10 classes a week. No, I like kids. Mm -hmm.
OK, I'm Victoria. Hey, guys. I'm Carly. And we
are on my time today. Carly took last week, and
we all heard how that went. Why? Listen, too
many texts I got of like, I've never laughed
so hard. I was like, because it's free, but not
free. Is that why? Because everything we promised
was the complete opposite. And the answer was
yes. We sang a lot too. That's good. Yeah. But
today we are on something that I found on Instagram
late, late last night. Oh gosh, this is not much
research because it was late last night and then
I really dove in this morning. And it has to
be something that cannot be talked about first.
It has to be experimented first so that there
is no mental placebo of like, oh, you know when
people are like, well, do you actually like that?
Or do you like that? Because she said she likes
that or they really hyped it up or you know,
that like mental game. Don't worry. I don't think
about anything before I say it anyway. No, but
sometimes you laugh and you don't know what's
funny and then we're like, do you understand?
And you're like, no, but everybody else is laughing.
So that's the same. So why won't you let me have
coffee? Right. So we are going to be drinking
this coffee that I just made. Carly came in and
went right to the kitchen. I was like, get out.
You are not allowed to have coffee right now.
I was so angry. So I made eight cups of coffee
or like the pot of Yeah, eight cups and I put
it into my little craft which I never get to
use I'm very happy I get to use it and We are
going to pour this live drink this live and then
I'm gonna tell you why Carly usually puts Creamer
actually you put creamer and and my little oat
milk foam foam on top You owe me like ten dollars
every time I go to the store because I only buy
it for her So I'm gonna, oh, I'm gonna pour this
coffee. It's good that you didn't help me and
bring the glass over to me. This is your world,
I am living in it right now and you wouldn't
let me have coffee so you're gonna do all the
work. Can I put my stuff in it? It's good, it's
good, okay. I can't drink black coffee. Okay,
that's good. So we are gonna drink black coffee.
No! And I picked my clear mugs because I want
everyone to see that I'm not doctoring anything
and things aren't... You know, she's telling
the truth Oh That's what love looks like Carly.
She doesn't know So yes, this is black coffee
it is bullet the the brand is bullet proof coffee,
but there's no butter in it Thank God. No, no,
there's no butter in it. It's the bullet proof
coffee started with a brand company Okay, and
then people kind of came onto it. So it's just
coffee. It's just black coffee regular Nothing,
nothing fancy And Carly drinks it with stuff
in it. So you gotta drink it, take a sip. Why
do you hate me? And tell me, tell me if it tastes
different or the same or whatever. It's very
hot. She's gonna hate it. It's very hot. I mean,
ooh, no thank you. Ooh, I'm gonna tell you my
thoughts in a second. I'm gonna take another
sip. Now stop being weird, wow. Okay. Stop being
weird about it. In terms of regular black coffee,
does that taste any? It tastes lighter. It tastes
lighter. It doesn't taste as dark or like thick
as black coffee usually tastes to me. Like bitter?
Yeah, bitter. Correct. I cannot believe it worked.
So for every every six tablespoons of coffee
grounds that you put into, and I don't usually
measure. I just like pour coffee grounds into
the filter. I have a regular old coffee pot.
Carly doesn't make coffee, she doesn't know how.
So I did it, I measured it. I put six coffee
grounds, six tablespoons of coffee grounds in
it, and an eighth of Himalayan sea salt in the
coffee grounds. And then you brew your coffee
like normal. What is that supposed to do? Ha
ha ha. It takes away the bitterness. It takes
away the acidity. It crazily doesn't actually
change the chemistry of the coffee. It changes
what our taste buds react to in drinking the
coffee. And so it doesn't taste like, your dog
is so loud. Like your dog is so loud. I don't
know if any of you can hear that, but she's shaking.
She's tapping. She just woke up. Carly has put
her into a slumber and now she's ready to have
the day again. We're going to talk about 15 benefits
as to why you would put Himalayan salt into your
coffee. And it's an ancient Greek method that
people don't talk about more, but apparently
it's been booming for a few years. It's growing
on me. Late to this game, I've never thought
about it. I've never knew it was a thing. Carly
used to drink bulletproof coffee, which is putting
butter into your coffee. And that's a different
ancient thing. It was supposed to be good for
your insides. It added to my insides. It added
fat to her insides. I had just had Melody and
Andrew made me a bulletproof coffee once a day
because it was like the one thing to look forward
to after all night feeding and nursing. I don't
like how you said that. I don't normally say
feeding. I meant feedings. It did not help the
baby weight come off. It added, I was like, I
don't understand why I'm not losing the baby
weight as Andrew puts a pound of butter in my
coffee. Aw, Carly's having another baby. Oh God.
So anyway, this is the thing and it works. That
was my first time taking a sip too. I put Carly's,
for those of you not watching, I did put Carly's
creamer and cold foam back on the table. But
the reason people put cream in it is to change
the taste of the coffee. It's to change that
acidic flavoring and how your body reacts to
that acidity. If you're trying to stray from
putting creamer into your coffee, this might
be a good way to do it because it changes the
chemistry of what happens. Oh my God, what? She
just put so much in the smallest cup of coffee.
Yep. Looks like a Guinness. Yeah, it does. Well,
we're gonna talk about why we're talking about
this today and why oh my god, that's so good
There are benefits and what they are and all
that stuff. Okay. Hello pepper So yeah adding
pink Himalayan salt in my trusty Pillow I hid
it so she wouldn't know this is what I put in
That's your coffee I love pink salt for every
six tablespoons of ground coffee Quarter or an
eighth I think less is more until you really
get the science of it, because everyone was like,
put a little bit in it first. You can add more,
but you can't take away the salt taste. Like
if you just put too much salt in the coffee,
it's just going to taste like salted coffee.
I can't eyeball. I'm not an eyeballer. I've got
to measure. When it comes to baking and stuff,
I have to measure. When it comes to cooking,
it's a free for all. But this I measured because
too much salt is too much salt, no matter how
much you salt it. But that's the measurement.
Adding too much, here's a real quick on the con
of doing this. If you add too much salt, you're
gonna go to the bathroom more because that's
just how your body processes it and then you're
gonna get dehydrated and you're gonna feel all
those feelings of dehydration. But that's only
if you do way too much every single day, every
cup of coffee. Yeah, I feel like that's extreme.
It's an extreme. In everything that I've been
reading, you'd have to really just... pour the
coffee in or pour the salt in. Put the salt in
the wound. So number one, we'll be quick about
these because there are 15, but we'll be quick.
It makes your coffee taste better. That's like
the basic one. Like why put it in there? Makes
it taste better. It takes away that bitterness.
We've already said it. It affects how, so when
the sodium ions in the salt make contact with
your coffee, it affects how the coffee tastes
in your mouth. It doesn't actually change the
taste of the coffee. So it's a little bit heady
to think about that. It affects how you taste
it. It's a mind, mouth thing. Yeah. Very good.
It's a mind, mouth thing. It's a mind, a mouth.
Sorry, the salt's getting to me. The salt affects
the bitterness receptors on your tongue, which
is why it's a you thing, not a coffee thing,
if that makes sense. Yeah. So I wonder if you
have less receptors on your tongue, it'll taste
different to every single person. I think so,
because that's why cilantro tastes different
to every single person. It does. Cilantro is
the ish. Some people, a lot of people, taste
soap when they eat cilantro. Stop it. You didn't
know that? No. I think it's a genetic. You have
a genetic... I don't know. It's a genetic marker
that you have that you can taste it this way
or you taste it this way. Oh, my God. Cilantro
is my life. I would put, I put it on everything.
And I know so many people that were like, it
literally tastes like you're eating a bar of
soap. I've never heard this. Then it must not
be true. So yeah, some people stop adding milk
to their coffee and they'll start adding salt
because you can take away the added fat of milk
and dairy into your life and it makes it taste
good. So number two, it eases respiratory problems.
Okay. Himalayan salt. Yeah, not just like ionized,
iodized. Iodized or ionized? Salt. I think it's
iodized, but it's... Iodized. Ionized. You know,
like the one in the blue canister? With the little
girl in the umbrella? Yes, from 1922. Not that
kind of salt. None of what we're saying is accurate.
I just need to put that out there. None of it
is true. We don't have a fact checker either,
so... So Himalayan salts, minerals, because it's
jam packed with minerals, they are easily absorbed
in the body. And for those of you watching this,
I am looking at my phone because I took screenshots
of all of these articles that gave me all the
information. And then I highlighted the special
things. Looking at your highlights. So this is
where the ancient Greek part comes in. Apparently
that's where it was first practiced. And they
discovered that sea salt could clear their airways
and help Improve their overall like breathing
so if you have asthma not that this is gonna
be like a magic pill a cure -all or a cure -all
it just Adding Himalayan salt in this very small
way Can do something to those lungs right it
can also invest in a oh if you also it's the
same thing as a Himalayan salt lamp Salt lamp
I used to have one in my room and This is not
my house So I had to get rid of it, but it the
salt started corroding the entire window. Really?
Yeah. The paint is bubbling and chipping like
it needs to be completely redone because of my
Himalayan salt. Oh my god, that's crazy. Yeah,
I didn't think of it and then I have like a little
Himalayan salt heart. Oh yes. It's a heart -shaped
bubble. Like I completely ruined my window so.
The kids always want to lick it. But it takes
the the impure air and it you know, takes all
the detoxing, none of my words are right today,
takes all the bad stuff in the air and it detoxes
it and then you breathe easier. So this coffee,
salt situation essentially does the same thing.
Better fluid balance in your body is number three.
This would be the only one that I would think
of. as a benefit without like looking without
knowing anything else about it just because of
your whole electrolyte deficiency thing yeah
that's why this is the basically go -to homemade
electrolyte liquid that you can do for yourself
it makes it easy for your body to absorb fluid
especially if you are a fitness person and you're
sweating a lot this is a great way to start the
morning assuming that's when you drink your coffee
and then your body is just like ready to go.
So it's basically putting an electrolyte packet
in your water in the morning. Right. So think
of those, if anybody puts an electrolyte packet
and they say, oh my god, it tastes so salty,
which is why I can't do that because they are
way too salty for me. Some of them. You liked
the one I did. Essential element. Yeah, I did
like that one. There's a couple, unfortunately,
our brother gave me a whole pack for Christmas.
I cannot stomach them. They're so salty. So I
would much rather do this. I'm sure it's not
the same amount of electrolytes or whatever.
Probably not. But I would so much rather do this
than those packets. You would so much rather.
I was doing so well. So much rather. You're doing
better than I am. OK, I agree. And also number
four, reduce stress. Is this why you made me
do this? Oh my god, someone's got to try. So
this causes our serotonin levels to go down.
When you're stressed, it causes your serotonin
levels to go down. Serotonin is the happy feelings
that you have, right? And when we don't have
enough serotonin, you feel lethargic. You feel
that like, I'm stuck, everything's droopy and
down, mixed with a lot of other things, but serotonin's
a big one. So Himalayan salt helps boost serotonin
levels, which I didn't know. I didn't know that
either. I didn't know any of this. You can basically
start your morning with a ton of energy and a
good mood if you micro dose serotonin in this
way every single day. Maybe that's why the Greeks
are so happy and they're just like chucking plates
on the floor because they're just like, we don't
need them. We're so happy. Oh, we don't need
plates. We don't need plates. Get out of here.
We have Himalayan pink salt. I mean, you don't
know. I cut off the title and I was like, what
is this about? It keeps your skin clear. Bring
it on. I know. Bring it on. But like, huh? So
the minerals in the sea salt, because Himalayan
sea salt is packed with, it's not just salt,
right? There are ions in there, there's zinc,
there's magnesium, chromium, all these things.
Iodine, maybe that's what you're thinking. Iodines.
Iodized. I think it's iodized. I really do. I
think I'm going to check it. I think you're right.
I think you're right. You could check it now.
It was OK. So all those minerals, zinc helps
to fight acne and repair damaged tissue. Give
it to me. So if you have acne and those tend
to open or you're popping them and then your
skin scars, zinc is a big help for that. Didn't
know that. Like put it in your coffee or like
rub it all over your face? I mean, we've done
episodes about rubbing it all over our faces.
I don't think there's a bad way to do zinc. And
zinc also helps your immune system. No, I'm talking
about literally that bottle of Himalayan pink
salt. Do you want me to rub it on my face or
put it in my coffee? Definitely your open source.
It won't hurt at all. There's sulfur. And that
helps with skin hydration and leaving your face
clean and then also smooth, so that exfoliating
factor. This is all just. Properties of salt,
Himalayan salt. So all of this to your coffee
adds up. If you have skin infections, which really
just comes from like picking your skin, we all
do it. I do it. All the time. 37, I'm still doing
it. Hey, 40. I still have acne. I have worse
acne now than I did when I was 16. I know, but
I mean like you think you can fix it. Oh, yeah,
yeah, yeah. And then you go and you're like,
hmm, I just made this 20 times worse. It's a
lesson that we will never learn. Yeah. And I
fight myself while I'm doing it. Don't do this,
don't do this, and then it's done, and it's a
mess. So maybe this will help this, because the
iodine and chromium inside Himalayan salt helps
fight off skin infections, or when you're popping
these things open, the possibility of creating
a skin infection, like you're just stronger.
Your skin immunity is strong. Right, okay, I'll
try it. Number six, getting a better night's
sleep, which sounds crazy, because coffee wakes
you up. If you're affected by caffeine, coffee
wakes you up. I could drink this sleeping. Yeah,
I have. Just go to bed. But one of the reasons
so many people can't get sleep and they toss
and turn all night and their brain can't turn
off is they're not getting enough sodium in their
diet. Yes. Oh, she's really happy about that.
I believe this. Why are you so happy about that?
No, I believe this. Well, because when you're
deficient in something, You're going to be deficient
in other ways as well. If you're deficient in
sodium I can imagine that that affects more than
just sleep like we had said with you with like
your whole electrolyte episode You know, I totally
believe that it's it's a fact that I believe
not that I haven't believed your other ones But
this one I really believe took her six, but she
got it on number six So when you're set stressed
out the cortisol on your body blocks melatonin
flow Which I don't remember talking about when
we did a cortisol level a cortisol episode But
that makes a lot of sense and your melatonin
is what you need to get sleep And that's why
we take melatonin gummies or you know drink melatonin
so that you can Create more of it in your body
and go to sleep better so if salt can help that
and you start your day with it and then like
think about 21 days of this habit It'd be a good
experiment to do If any of you have sixth graders
needing to do science fair projects, here you
go. Oh, yeah. That's a good idea. All right.
Number seven, improves your digestion, which
is very exciting for me. She was born with digestive
issues. I believe that. Thank you. It's not a
belief system. It's real. It's science. It's
happening. So Himalayan salt can boost your metabolism,
which I did know. Yes, we'll get into like can
this help you with like a weight losing weight
or just like a weight problem But it's not you
can't just like put Himalayan salt on things
and then if it's not an actual cheesesteak Because
I put salt on it. So now I can eat it type of
thing. Yeah, it's not magic But it helps move
boost the metabolism which deepens I love how
you're saying this. I can't read this word, so
I'm struggling. Give it to me. No, I'm going
to say it. Let me say it. I want to say it. The
second highlighted sentence. Deepen. What's the
second one? And pachin. A pachin. A pachin. A
pachin. The properties from the Pasatino coast
with the Mario. With the Mario and the pachin.
And the Coca -Cola and the salami. I'm just trying
to think of... And a gazpacho. We went from Greek
to Italian real fast. I don't see the difference.
It's P -A -C -H -A -N. It's a pachin. There are
these... Pachins. Properties inside the salt
that keeps gas from accumulating. and generally
improves your digestion. So gas accumulating.
Can you say digestion, please? Digestion. Digestion.
Digestion. Say digestion. Say it. I feel like
this is a trick. Digestion. Say it in a sentence.
Try to say that exact sentence again. It keeps
gas from accumulating and generally improves
your digestion. OK. She was saying digestion.
Digestion? You were like, your digestion. Digestion.
Your digestion. Anyway, continue with your digestion.
Your gas accumulating. That's bloating. That
means bloating. So it can keep those carbonated
water, those bubbles, keep some at bay in your
digestive tract. It also helps your body move
food through your digestive system. You should
think about it. And it just improves the whole
flow, the whole process. So I think that's a
big one. So with that paired with that is number
eight, and that is lose weight with Himalayan
salt, which is like such a trigger title. I feel
like this is a scam. It's not a scam. It definitely
boosts metabolism. But normal salt. retains water,
right? Like table salt retains the water, keeps
it, holds it. You feel bloated in your fingers.
My gosh, that's like the worst. It's how we feel
every day. But also feel it when we don't have
salt either. So I can't win. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Goldilocks is very confused. Yeah. So just even
think about eating a pretzels or a bag of chips,
like that salty meal that retains and holds moisture
and water in your body. So that's the bloated,
that's the puffy. all the uncomfortable things.
Himalayan salt is not table salt. It's different.
So it's not retaining. It's helping things move.
It's absorbing water more, which in turn helps
your body process better, boosts the metabolism
to be able to work better. So it's not like this
makes you go the bathroom more, gets the toxins
out. It's like a whole cycle. Right. But it's
not regular salt. So that's why they're saying
Himalayan salt can help you lose weight. Right.
Because you're not feeling all that discomfort.
It's true. But also like don't get caught up
on that. Well, yeah It's just like she said you
don't sprinkle it on a cheesesteak and say I'm
gonna lose five pounds, right? Like it's not
magic But real quick circling back when you said
Goldilocks was confused. Am I Goldilocks or just
Goldilocks in general? Because I'm confused it
was I agreed with you, but I didn't know if I
was Goldilocks I wasn't thinking about you. But
yes. Never mind. So Goldilocks was confused.
Wait, Goldilocks is trying to find the right
porridge. Right. Right. So you said can't have
too little salt, can't have too much salt. So
I was like, yeah, it's a Goldilocks problem.
But yeah, you are Goldilocks. I just didn't know.
Woo. Goldilocks with some roots. Oh my god, I
know. I've been trying to get in touch with my
hairdresser. I'm sorry, guys. This coffee is
really good. It's really good. It's really good
when you put a creamer and cold foam on it. If
you're a black coffee drinker, I am a black coffee
drinker, you can taste that like it's coffee.
It smells better than it tastes because it's
bitter and it's acidic. That is smooth. This
is my new this is my new life. Welcome to my
new life. Thank you for coming. I will also do
it with my other stuff. Well, you don't make
coffee, so you're going to have to show this
to Andrew. I was just thinking about that, because
he loves stuff like this. He does. So he'll definitely
be doing this. He'll make it a whole meal, though.
He'll put a turkey in there. He'll put some sides,
a little butter, maybe a biscuit. No, no butter.
I have PTSD. So nine is easing your acidic or
acid reflux. So if you have acid reflux, some
people take medicine every single day for it.
God bless you, because. Acid refluxes. Oh, it's
horrible. Doesn't it feel like a heart attack?
Yes. It feels horrible I had it when I was pregnant
and it is it nothing ever goes down It's just
constantly right here bubbling up. Yeah, and
it's painful. It's so painful. I No wonder you
people don't drink coffee. Yeah, right people
that have acid reflux. Yeah, so Now you can now
you can be you're welcome. You're welcome. It
can make it less acidic and less likely to trigger
your reflux receptors. I don't like the word
trigger, but yes. Goldilocks is no longer confused.
It will help say hello to your reflux receptors.
You're so stupid. I don't like the word trigger.
OK, it takes care of muscle cramps. Give it to
me. Tell me. I know. I had one of the worst Charlie
horses of my life when we were in Vegas. I'll
tell you why. I was dehydrated, and it was the
middle of the night, and I shot up. You didn't
say anything. I froze. You know, when you have
a bad Charlie horse, so bad, you freeze because
you don't want to move too much because then
you'll feel more pain. But I had to hold it and
just hold my calf, freeze, and wait till it goes.
But I knew that it was because I was dehydrated.
I had not had enough water. But had I had maybe
some pink salt in my coffee, maybe that wouldn't
have happened. Yeah, we didn't have pink salt
in the Airbnb. We didn't have a lot of things,
but I agree with you. Oh, man. Charlie horses
can be the worst pain ever, especially in the
middle of the night when you're in the dead of
sleep. See, things trigger the mind pertaining
to your experience, because you went muscle cramp
Charlie horse, and I was thinking menstrual muscle
cramps. So that is, you're right, I think. I
think it might be more towards your end, but
I'm thinking if you do this consistently, that
every month problem might be lessened. Maybe
lessened, yeah. Maybe, I don't know. But Charlie
horses, they're just as bad. Yeah. So muscle
cramps are caused by magnesium levels being too
low, which we've talked about in our magnesium
episode. Yeah. Let's get through all the minerals.
So it's a deficiency. and a water problem. They
go hand in hand though. That's that like Goldilocks.
You have to find the like perfect balance of
intaking everything. So Himalayan salt is rich
with magnesium. It's as easy as that. You may
be able to get annoying cramps out of the way
by the time you leave the house if you start
with this every morning. Yeah I think that's
a great idea. Thank you. I didn't create it.
I didn't create it. The Greeks did, but yeah.
OK. Sea salt improves your heart health. So salt
improves blood circulation. So already, just
for that factor, getting more blood flow to the
heart, pumping out, everything is great. When
that flow is disrupted, you're at a greater risk
of heart attack and other heart issues. This
isn't, again, a magic pill. we're gonna put our
legal little thing at the end and you're not
doctors go talk to your own doctor if you have
salt um intake issues that you know you're regulating
don't just do this willy -nilly talk to somebody
and then don't tell us about it yeah and either
either way it can help lower your blood pressure
if you have high blood pressure um and maybe
problems with like good blood flow circulation
oxygen levels stuff like that himalayan salt
might be the way to go to add in. But talk to
your doctor. I'm going to keep saying that. And
then that goes hand in hand with number 12, which
is lowering your blood pressure. Yeah, I would
assume. Which also this is like helping with
cortisol, which also lowers blood pressure. And,
you know, I think it's everything's connected,
just like every time we have these conversations.
Yeah, it's like five of them go together because
it's just a ripple effect. Yeah, that electrolyte
balance, which is really hard, that can flow
all the way help all the way to your intestines,
which absorb more nutrients that all of your
organs need. Like, your gut health, which is
my favorite episode, which is my favorite documentary
I watched, and I know you didn't watch it, even
though I told you to. I didn't, but I do remember
the episode, so I feel like I don't need to watch
the documentary. Cool. It all helps that. Cliff
notes! This one Carly's not gonna like. She's
gonna get weird. She's gonna get awkward. She's
gonna huff and puff and go, ah! And now she's
not gonna do any of those cuz you called it out.
That's how to do it folks You call it out first
then she won't do it to prove a point. Maybe
I will now it boosts your libido Eye roll of
the century. I did not say eye roll. So she didn't
eye roll Okay, why is this annoying to you? It's
just like okay. You have three children. I love
it. I mean immaculate conceptions That's weird.
I'm just kidding. That's weird. I'm just kidding.
So uh Oh, look, she's flustered. She's triggered.
No, no, no. She's triggered. I only highlighted
a little bit of this. So salt is chock full of
minerals, which we talked about. They're known
to charge your libido up, which is the quote
unquote sex drive, right? Explicit episode. Oh
my god. Do not normalize that sex cannot be talked
about. That's why it's so taboo. People like
you, old school mind thinking like you. I'm old
now, so. Close enough. So it charges up your,
I mean, we're going to talk about this for the
rest of the time to make her uncomfortable. Laugh
louder. I dare you to. I put the microphone away.
Holy shit. OK. Now it's explicit. It charges
your libido up, including selenium, magnesium,
and zinc. So we talked about, not selenium, but
we talked about the other two minerals for other
reasons. But this is an added. bonus to those
minerals being in your diet every single day.
So it says, at the end of the day, the quote
unquote sex drive metaphor makes more sense if
you think of your body as a car. When your libido
is low, when your sex drive is low, it's a bit
like your car is low on gas and oil and water,
all the fluids that it needs to run smoothly.
That's all that that is. Like you have got a
complete, she's gonna say the least amount she
can. You've got a complete, I forget what I was
gonna say. Perfect. I know that Andrew was gonna
take a bottle of salt and just put the entire
thing in the coffee every single morning. I don't
know how you guys are still married. I really
am not sure when this is how you react to the
word libido. I think it's funny. I'm gonna say
libido to you every day. Can't wait vagina She's
so uncomfortable I love it So yeah, basically
to get your mojo back over to get your mojo back
This is a good way to just keep all of your mineral
balances in check. This isn't like They're breaking
this down When it could be one thing. What do
you mean? Like they're breaking down 13 We're
at 13 benefits and it could be rolled into one.
I mean it's good for your overall health It's
good for right all the minerals mean different
like they can do different things. So They're
breaking down to like okay the libido effect
but You need the good you need the right level
of zinc the right level of magnesium selenium
Iodine like it's so It's so formulated, but if
you have the perfect formula, then yeah, you'll
be doing it all the time. Yeah, but I also think
that that has to do with, you need to have good
gut health. If your gut isn't feeling well, you're
not gonna have a strong libido. If you're dehydrated,
you're not gonna have good gut. It's like, if
you don't have one, you don't have all of them.
Yeah, yeah, that's true. Do you know what I mean?
Yeah. Yes, I do. I also don't like you saying
libido, so now I get it. Okay, 14 detox your
body So we already said this it draws out just
like the Himalayan salt amp draws the toxins
out and then flushes them So that's what a detox
is that you basically go to the bathroom and
everything leaves the body. So it will help that
process Same way as if you put Himalayan salt
in a bath Well, I was just gonna say I was just
looking at online a Himalayan sea salt scrub
Like I was like, Oh, that looks good. I was going
to get it. Didn't know we were doing this today.
Um, and I also didn't get it. So, but it is a
scrub for your body to take the toxins, to pull
the toxins from your body. And that's basically
what you're saying. Oh my God. Andrew's going
to pour that all over you as well. Oh, that won't
change the blackness in my soul. That'll always
be there. Okay, the last one, regulate and maintain
your blood sugar. What with my hair? So type
two, you know, diabetes and insulin levels, all
of this. It's not, again, gonna be a quick fix,
but the magnesium inside sea salt helps break
down starch. This I had to highlight because
I don't. I don't know much about this. And the
manganese content helps keep your blood sugar
in a healthy range. I mean, hopefully that makes
sense. Yeah. It just helps regulate your insulin
production, having a small dose of micro dose
salt every day. So why not put it in your coffee?
And I think it's almost like this is a great
way to do it because you're only going to put
so much in your coffee because you don't want
your coffee to taste bad. Right. But if you're
going to just I'm going to add Himalayan salt
to my meals. You're going to cover it with so
much salt every meal. Now you're having too much
salt because on food, I think it tastes better.
Right. In coffee, it just can taste like salty
water. So you're not going to overdo it. You're
not going to overdo it. Yeah. Okay, I made it
to the next slide and it's picture of a shirt
so we have made it through the article I think
this is a very much like my big fat Greek wedding
where they put Windex on everything like it's
like a Cure -all and this pink Himalayan salt
also from the Greeks might just be another cure
-all like they they knew what they were doing
I Think there's so many of them out there that
are homeopathic Cures like I'm a big I have a
headache. I'm reaching for the ibuprofen. No,
but it's funny cuz with my kids I won't do that
I'll say drink water because why do they have
a headache? They're probably dehydrated and tired,
but it has nothing to do with You know, they're
not having migraines They're just having headaches
from dehydration and I'll be like go get a drink
of water to be fair Your kids come to you and
they're like my gosh my throat's on fire and
you're like drink something get over it And then
the next thing they have a strep But I am very
much more into this kind of stuff for them than
I ever was for me Because I think there's a lot
of more what? There are a lot more I'm doing
quote fingers We're okay, we should have put
Kalu in the gravity I'm doing quote fingers.
There are more homeopathic natural remedies that
everybody could be using this being one of them
that just affects your whole body. There's a
book online that is circulating maybe just from
my algorithm, but it's an apothecary book. And
it's exactly that. It's taking herbs and minerals
and concoctions of said things you have in your
kitchen and creating a cure for whatever ailment
you have. And it's hundreds of pages long with
pictures, super cute, but I kind of want it because
I'm not an ibuprofen taker or an acetaminophen
taker. Like I will suffer until it's so to the
point where I've passed the point of helping
and it's too bad and too late. So I've never
taken pills even though I like taking, like I
don't mind taking pills. Menstrual cramps is
different. I'll die on that cross. I would love
to get a simulator. Oh, to see how other people
feel. Yeah, yeah. They wouldn't handle it. Preferably
guys, because... Well, have you ever seen those
videos of them trying to work out? Yeah, yeah.
Trying to work out at the gym. Oh my God, it
made me laugh so hard because they're close to
crying and they're like, you move during this?
You're like, move. I go to work. Yeah. And they're
like, oh, this is only at level two. Yeah. I'm
at a level eight or nine on the daily. Yeah,
guys. You're all wimps. I went on, I did a show
with a girl who had horrible migraines that used
to send her to the hospital. But as she got older,
she would be like, I feel one coming on. And
she made this drink that smelled horrible. We'd
be like, oh god, Dani has a migraine. But she
drank it and she would, it would take the migraine
away. Like she had learned this over the years.
When she was younger, she would go to the hospital
because her migraines were so bad. But she found
this remedy, this homemade, like, drink, and
I'm telling you, I'm sure there was, like, maybe
turmeric in there, or, like, cayenne, I don't
know. It smelled horrendous, and within minutes
it would be gone. I would love, I think that's
what that Apothecary book is. I'm gonna end up
getting it. It's gonna happen. Remember my headaches?
Yes. She would have to lay in a black room and
no one could talk to her. You would take... Mom
would give you, what's the headache medicine?
Excedrin and migraine. But mom in a homeopathic
book found you make a temperature conductor throughout
your body. You put cold on your forehead, heat
on your neck, cold on your hands, heat on your
feet. Or maybe those cold and hot are vice versa,
but it's every other. boost circulation and stimulation
to the like You know alarm happening in your
head and it starts to sue that sue that I think
maybe we should do an episode of problems that
we have and then homemade remedies that we Researched
we could talk about that after this one. Yeah,
not right now Thank you for coming to our 50
be real meeting I've got a text from our I gotta
talk to my producer watching. He said, y 'all
look cold. I'm freezing. It is 63 in here. I
mean, that's warm. I wore my sweater. I have
a blanket. I knew what I was walking into. I
am freezing. It was 53 last week. It was 10 degrees
hotter. I can't. So yeah. I can't work under
these conditions anymore. She's cold. I'm comfortable,
but had to do it in solidarity. Also, turmeric.
Turmeric? Yeah, turmeric. Is it tumeric or is
it tumeric? Tumeric. Tumeric. I've also heard
turmeric. Is it iodized? Producer, look it up.
Let us know. Pachon. Pachon. Pachon. What does
that word mean, everybody? Okay. We digress.
Love the taste of this. This is going to be my
new thing. Okay. That's great. It's gonna happen.
It's very easy. Make sure you get Himalayan,
not just... I cannot think of the table salt
that we all have. Just regular salt. I know,
but the container with the little girl. Morton
salt. Not your Morton salt. Himalayan pink salt.
Sea salt. That is the kicker that is what you
need you put it in your coffee And you also if
you want to make the best chocolate chip cookies
you put it on your chocolate chip cookies So
many uses, but that's the thing. That's why we
put salt on caramel or caramel. We're talking
about how you say things. It's caramel right,
but that's the Caramel without salt does something
different to our taste buds either way it tastes
good Caramel is caramel, but that's salt does
something to the receptors. So there's reasons,
like you put salt on things. That's not going
to fix it. Do not just put Himalayan salt. I
was just going to say that. Don't just put it
on everything. What is that commercial? I put
that on everything. Shit is the word you're looking
for. It's the old woman and it's like hot sauce.
Yeah. It's Franks. Is it Franks? It's Franks.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So don't do that with your
Himalayan pink salt. Your hands will blow up.
That's true. Tumeric, it is not. Tumeric. Tumeric,
it is not. Tumeric. You spelled it the same way
twice. You know what? This is Tumeric. I can't.
This is Tumeric. I can't. I'm over it. Tumeric.
It's not enough Merrick. It's Tumeric. So yeah,
try it. I'm gonna obviously attach all the reference
links so that you can also look this stuff up
because clearly there's something wrong with
their mouths today. Oh my god. We got a lot of
things flubbed, but the general, the overall
general bit of it, I think we got out there.
So just check it out. Try it. If you're a black
coffee drinker, it completely flattened that
like taste. Even if you're not a black coffee
drinker, can't you try it? Or do you think the
stuff I put in it totally negates the Himalayan
pink salt? Does it have to be black coffee? No,
I think it's, no, no, no, it doesn't have to
be black coffee. But if you're putting, I think,
if you're putting salt in your coffee for all
these health benefits, and then you're adding
more... Bad for you things to it. It kind of
negate like don't put the salt who cares stop.
That's too Merrick I'm gonna do whatever I like
you put in some Some of those ingredients you
can't read you're putting that into your coffee,
which I'm not telling you you can or shouldn't
She got the shakes do what you need to do but
I think that kind of like takes away the purpose.
Yeah, like it covers the remedy that the remedy
is the experience. It's a dangerous liaison.
Wow, we got that out. The comedy. Turmeric out.
It's serious. That's all I know. You're still
monologue acting. I've been doing it all week
to myself. And that's the best you got? Oh no.
I didn't know the whole song. Sorry, Jason Mraz.
Jason Mraz. I know. All right. We're done. So.
Put salt in coffee. Put your salt in your coffee,
unless you're going to cover it with two creams.
It's dairy free cream and dairy free sugar free.
It's not sugar free. Cold foam on top. And the
way that you make those things taste good is
sugar and chemicals. So don't. care about the
salt if you're going to do that. But I think
you should try the black coffee with it just
to see what that taste is like for you. It's
a grow on you, I think, because I took three
sips of it black. It's a grow on you. It's a
grow on you. It's a grow on you, just like your
libido. It's a grow on you. I was thinking more
of a chia pet, but whatever. Remember the chia
pets? You would. Oh, my God. Goldilocks is getting
nothing. Listen Happy day whenever you're listening
