Speaker1: [00:00:00] Hello, my beautiful people, you know, it is Humpday because I am here talking to you and you know that I released these episodes on Wednesday, so excited to be here. And we have another amazing guest because, you know, I read nothing but quality. And his name is Dr. John Jaquish. He is a Wall Street Journal best selling author and an inventor of the most effective bone density building medical device, which has reversed osteoporosis for thousands and created more powerful and fractured resistant athletes. His devices were put into production and has since been placed in over 300 clinics worldwide. Osteogenic loading has now helped over 20000 individuals with their bone health. Dr. Jaquish also quantified the variance between the power capacities from weak to strong wages and weight lifting, which brought him to his second innovation x3. The research indicates that this products build muscle much faster than conventional lifting and does so in less training time, all with the lowest risk of joint injury. Dr. Jaquish is a research professor at Rushmore University, speaks at scientific conferences all over the world, has been featured on many of the top health podcasts, is an editor of multiple medical journals and is a nominee for the National Medal of Science. I am so excited to have him on here because we're going to have some controversial topics that we're going to be discussing, including why not weightlifting and the whole fitness trend and so many more things. Welcome, Dr. Jaquish, a.k.a. Dr. J. How are you today?

Speaker2: [00:01:48] I'm super. Thanks for having me, Elizabeth.

Speaker1: [00:01:51] I mean, thank you for being here. I mean, you know, I'm going to put you on the spot on the podcast. I don't normally do this, but I think I'm inspired by you as being my guest to have a little section called Rumor Has It. And so be prepared.

Speaker2: [00:02:07] I will. There's all kinds of crazy rumors going around about me. Most of them are just ludicrous. But I always I enjoy even the ludicrous ones that are very comical.

Speaker1: [00:02:16] Ok, so we're going to we're going to sneak them in there if you let me. So thank you. So I want to start talking about first of all, let's talk about your product. Right. Let's let's talk about what made you disrupt the fitness world. And do you feel like your research and technology and your competitors who use your traditional way of getting lean and building muscle?

Speaker2: [00:02:42] Ok, yes, it's definitely a threat to the old way of getting fit. But let's face it, the old way of getting fit didn't really work for many people. Like, really think about it. The people who, you know, go to a gym three or four times a week and have been doing so for years. Do they look any different? Right, silence, they don't. Yeah, yeah, and in fact, there's there's data on the top leanest one percentile of males in the nation. It's ten point nine percent body fat, basically 11 percent body fat. That's the best one percent. Now, percentage body fat is a wonderful number because it considers muscularity also. So because the more muscular you become, the lower your percentage of body fat will be, so. You have a relatively pathetic number as the top percentile. Like, I really shows you, there's not a lot of fat people out there and there's a reason why it's so coveted, people want to be fit so badly because hardly anyone is. And like, why are we trusting an industry that might have a ninety nine point nine percent failure rate? Wow. Like who really who really is fit looking? Who really has completely visible abdominals and muscularity at the same time, you know, is it one in ten thousand people, maybe one in fifty thousand people? It's just uncommon.

Speaker2: [00:04:18] And so when that is how we define fitness, that's how we define and an admirable physique and we look at the statue from eight hundred years ago of Hercules, that's that's in I'm thinking of a particular one. There are a lot of statues of Hercules, particular kind of famous. He's leaning on like a like a tree branch and he's hung a lion skin over the tree branch. But a hundred years ago, you know, the guy looked absolutely incredible. They didn't even have performance enhancing drugs back then. But it's just so rare as my point that somebody had to sit for that statue to be created. Like there was a guy that looked like that eight hundred years ago. But my point is, it's just so rare and now there's a couple of genetic reasons which can be bypassed and I discussed that in my book, Weightlifting is a waste of time.

Speaker1: [00:05:09] Oh, I need that. I need to get that book because and we're going to get into that book, you know, I don't know. I want to get a signed copy. I'm waiting for the signed copy from conservatives. I get from and then rumor has it, but I'll bring that up. But I'm like excited to get my signed copy. But I want to go back a little bit to this technology that you spoke about. You talk about Hercules, right. Like let's pretend right. Like back in the days, we all know Hercules is known for being super buff and strong and like like you said, no, you know, performance enhancing drugs or medications or supplements, whatever you want to call

Speaker2: [00:05:46] Somebody that's got you, you listen to me talk and don't understand what that means. Somebody had to sit there and sit still while the sculptor created the sculpture.

Speaker1: [00:05:58] Yeah, that's a

Speaker2: [00:05:59] A who look like that. They don't just invent muscles out of their mind. No, because they don't know the anatomy. There's very few anatomy classes eight hundred years ago, but people could sit for a statue, so there had to be a guy like that.

Speaker1: [00:06:13] Yeah. And so I want to kind of touch on nutrition a little bit talking about that and you and your book. Right. Like what are your thoughts on nutrition? Because you said ninety nine point nine percent of the population are not succeeding in that. And so, you know, when you were asking me a question about you said, you know, who do you know that's really fit and who's going to the gym all the time? And I'm thinking, yeah, they're going to the gym all the time. But they're also like meticulously counting their calories, their macros, their protein.

Speaker2: [00:06:46] They still don't look any different, do they?

Speaker1: [00:06:48] Not by that much. So let's talk about that. I want to hear your thoughts on these fad diets, these new diets that we know that Hercules was definitely not doing.

Speaker2: [00:07:00] Primarily what I eat is red meat. Now, I also it's all about the quality protein when it comes to building muscle. Now, the two greatest drivers of long life or high levels of muscularity and low levels of body fat. So those are the two things I'm kind of best at. Having a low level of body fat and a high level of muscularity now, how does that happen? The easiest well, you have to have a lot of dietary protein and it has to be of quality. So, like, vegetable protein is only nine percent and that's like nine to four percent usable by the body. So you can you can have. Whatever, one hundred grams, but it really only counts like nine grams, so that would be like a pound and a half of broccoli will give you nine grams of use, but you need one gram per pound of body weight. Not a lot of people weigh nine pounds, so especially adults. So you can't have vegetable sauces and get anywhere. In fact, you're losing Moscow muscle the whole time. You're like vegan or vegetarian. So that's why there's weight loss also. Yeah, the losing body fat is a record deficit, but they're also losing muscle very rapidly. And that contributes to a lot of chronic conditions and early death. So, you know, does it do some good things for you going vegan or vegetarian? Yeah. Yeah, it does. It cuts a lot of processed food out, and that's good. But you can cut processed food out and still have animal protein or diet. So, yeah, that's that's primarily where I am. I did create a product that wasn't specifically for vegans, it was for everybody, but a lot of people.

Speaker2: [00:08:49] And they found a one gram per pound of body weight like I weighed 240 pounds. So 240 grams of protein is like two and a half pounds of steak. And I eat one meal a day because I want to fast and benefit also. So when you sit down for one meal and try and eat two and a half pounds of steak that lasts like half a pound, you don't love it. Wow, it's like work, is it, and you don't feel good afterward, you know, so your girlfriend wants to cuddle with you and you're like, now I'm going to have any Digest's. Let me just lay here. And so that just wasn't it wasn't great. So I worked with a with a group who had engineered a cancer treatment. That that was a very. Usable, essential amino acid product and most essential amino acid products are about as usable by the body as sand. Unfortunately, yeah, there may be the amino acids and everything weren't created correctly. They weren't created with fermentation. Basically, we're supposed to eat rotting stuff. And obviously, for sanitation reasons, we don't, right? So what what this is, is gives us the benefits of that rotting material fermentation without the taste and it's clean and there's nothing that will give you an infection or anything. Yeah. And so it's called Vortigern. So so I take about two two hundred grams of protein and protein value. Wow. I mean, I literally have to eat like a half pound steak and I'm good,

Speaker1: [00:10:29] And now you can cuddle with your girlfriend.

Speaker2: [00:10:32] Yes, very

Speaker1: [00:10:33] Good. So everyone ever...
