And of course, I went all organic. Of course. I mean, I was eating, I was eating well before I got sick. I was healthy. I mean, I grew up healthy. I didn't grow up the way kids did. This was back in 1999 when I first started getting sick.
B
All right, guys, got Dr. Pompa back here. This man's been going viral. Thanks for coming back on, man.
A
Yeah, I love it.
B
Let's do it. Biohack yourself this weekend as well, right?
A
Yeah. We're over there at a 4M and all the events that are going on.
B
Let's go. I've never been to a 4M. Have you been going to those?
A
It's huge. I. I used to speak there and I haven't in A while, but for no other reason. Just doing other things. But it's a great event.
B
Yeah, yeah. You've been in the space for a while. People think you just came out of nowhere.
A
Yeah, it's true. 20 years of teaching doctors. Right? It's. You're right. It's like, unless you show up on social media. And the only reason I'm there is because of my kids, by the way. You know, my son Simon makes me do certain amount of videos. He follows me around. Otherwise, yeah, I would still be teaching doctors somewhere.
B
I love it. Do you feel like people are more receptive these days to your advice?
A
Oh, yeah. It's. It was such a battle in the early days. Right. And now people are open to it. You look, you know, back then, you know, even 20 years ago, you just didn't have the amount of thyroid conditions, people without energy, people needing medication and stimulants. And today, I mean, it's. It's the majority of people. If you have 10 people in a room, I promise you, eight out of 10 have major complaints today. Here's the problem, though. People think it's normal now because it's so common that people are just walking around with the lights turned out, and it's become like normal until you turn the lights up and they go, oh, my gosh, I didn't even know life could be this. Your generation, I fear for. Right? We have this massive rise in autoimmune. We have rises in cancer rates. We just. And also just the unexplainable stuff. Right? The hormone dysregulation and the brain fog, anxiety. Can't sleep here. Your generation is plagued with this. But there's a reason, Right.
B
I think we've gotten so used to it, right. Because it wasn't like an overnight thing. It was, like, gradual.
A
Absolutely.
B
Now we're just, like, used to the lifestyle.
A
Absolutely. You know, and people. You know, people blame social media for a lot of it, but, I mean, look, I. Social media is good and bad. I'm not making an argument either way here. But what I'm saying is it's more than that. Your generation is just being crushed with certain types of toxins that we'll get into and talk about. It's. You know, the body can only take so much, right. You know, before it. Oh, the bucket overflows, as I say, and then the symptoms start. And then if you have them long enough, they become normal until, boom, you know, you. You get a diagnosis. Yeah. And then what?
B
Which toxins are you the most worried about?
A
Look, I. You know, heavy metals are a big deal. There's different neurotoxins. And what I mean by that is these are toxins that go into your brain, into your nerve tissue. They're not normal toxins. They're. They're absolutely deadly and ruined lives. Mercury ruined mine. So I'm always worried about mercury. You know, aluminum's a big one today, and here's the problem with that. We. We have gained a lot of mercury from our parents, okay? And the reason why, it's generational. So, ladies, the number of fillings you have in your mouth is proportional to how much mercury is found in the baby's brain.
B
Wow. Yeah.
A
And that was the. That's called the drash study. It's a German study that they did was the first to correlate that. So that mercury goes into the band. That was an autopsy study. So you're talking about, you know, really accurate measurement here. So those silver fillings, by the way, have 50% mercury. Okay? So that's where it starts from the womb, but it's also from the tomb. All these mercury sources today. But aluminum is just been like this in the last 10 years. One of the surprising places is that they actually use it as an additive in jet fuel. And so this nano particles of aluminum are falling from the sky. Of course, the industry's saving billions of dollars, I'm sure. Right. But we're being affected by aluminum that's falling down in our water and food supply. You put mercury and aluminum together, the lethal dose value raises. Okay? These are both neurotoxins that deep into the brain. Right. And they drive inflammation. And then we'd have the first sign, brain fog. Can't think. Right. It's like, you know, those types of stuff. But then it can become more serious. And I think that's what we're seeing. But this synergy of these two metals is. Is absolutely deadly. So I'm very highly concerned about that. I'm concerned about the amount of plastic that we're consuming right now. Did you say. Okay, first of all, I think I've just seen people on your show here talk about one week a credit card size of plastic is what we're eating. Right. And we're not physically eating. It's in everything from the water. We're drinking 240,000 microplastic particles in one liter of water. Right? I mean, that's. Yeah, that's crazy. You are no dummy, but you're kind of acting like one. You used to crush it in school, outsmarting opponents on the field. And now, well, you're still smart, but not exactly challenging yourself.

Study that just came out, they're talking about a teaspoon of plastic. Okay. Teaspoon of plastic. They're finding an autopsies in the brain.
B
Wow.
A
This particular study they looked at autopsy, they looked at bodies from 2016 to 2020 and what we've seen is every year there's a rise and like so I mean like this stuff's accumulating in people like so that meaning like the further you know we are on the scale. 24 is worse than the next year. Right? So it's every year people are getting more and more plastic in their Brain every year. I mean, a teaspoon of plastic, that's driving inflammation. Oh, then we're already exposed to mercury and aluminum. That's in. No wonder we have all these people walking around brain fog. No wonder we have thyroid conditions soaring because all of those things disrupt thyroid hormone, hormones in general and just simply keep us from feeling like ourselves.
B
And IQ levels are dropping pretty fast.
A
Oh, yeah, and IQ levels. Okay, I know there's. There's so much controversy about fluoride right now because one of the things that Bobby Kennedy, Robert Kennedy Jr. Has stepped out and said is we're going to get rid of fluoride. Right. My gosh, you think that this guy's a studied guy. I know him personally. He wouldn't come off with such an outlandish thing if there wasn't a reason to. Fluoride for years has been shown to affect IQ in children. For years. The development of the brain. For years it's been linked to different cancers. Why do you think our government protective bodies have decreased the allowable amount in water supply? 2011, it dropped it down to 0.7. And just recently, I think in September, literally, the FDA is going, okay, wait a minute. We either have to ban this stuff or put warnings so people know it's in the water and, you know, they can make a choice. You know, obviously that's what Bobby's, you know, saying, but the point is, is that you could understand the science or not just the fact that every year it's coming out. They're looking at the studies going, this is a problem. So what do people need to do? Everybody should be filtering their water with at least an RO system that takes out fluoride, takes out heavy metals, takes out the drugs that are now in the water. So drinking tap water today, not the same as it was 20 years ago.
B
Right.
A
And I'm probably not great then either.
B
Yeah. I remember growing up, they said New York had the best tap water.
A
Yeah. No, it's true. It comes from an aquifer and they don't have to treat it. Ye. There's a huge aquifer that sits on the city.
B
By now, there's probably. It's probably so bad for you, right?
A
Yeah. I mean, because again, you're getting other people's hormones. I mean, you know, this. I'm oversimplifying, but if your neighbor's taking estrogen, you're drinking your water. So are you. It's not that simple, but you know what I'm saying? Meaning you're taking in a lot of Drugs that are in the water, that the, the, the filtration systems that it goes through, it doesn't, it's not meant to filter out those types of things. Right. And then they're adding the fluoride. Oh, and then you're getting the aluminum, you know, right. From the jet fuels. I mean, so the point I'm making is, you know, we, we have to minimize what's coming in and we can take responsibilities. Right? You better be filtering your water with an RO unit. Better be making better choices. You're drinking out of glass. That's exactly right. I showed up here immediately. You know, my wife and I are looking for glass even though the hotel gives us plastic. Yeah, I don't want that plastic. And by the way, males, testicles, every male, they're finding plastic. Lowest testosterone in the history of man. Lowest sperm counts in the history of humanity. Right? And we have plastic in every tissue our body. And this recent one showing how much is in our brain.
B
Disgusting.
A
We better turn down the nozzle. We're taking in.
B
Have you seen any methods of getting rid of the plastics in the body?
A
Well, look, I, you know, this is what I've taught for 20 years, you know, how to get rid of this stuff in the tissue. I believe it's the most important thing we can do to live longer, healthy, honestly, is to be really just have a know how of how to get this stuff out of our tissues. So what I've been teaching doctors for 20 years is how we up regulate our cells. Upregulate. What does that mean? If I ever, if I say things that, like that, that people may understand, just bust in, man. Okay, so up regulate, meaning get going. Right? Every cell has detox pathways to protect us from this because toxins are unavoidable. I think we all agree with that to some degree. We're just being onslaughted now. But what happens is, is because of this onslaught of toxicity, all of the cellular detox pathways just get affected lower and lower and lower and lower to now it's like you're draining your tub, the hair is blocking it. And now the toxins aren't getting out in one day. That, that bathtub just keeps filling up because the drain is being squeezed because we're just putting too much in the drain, right? And then that bathtub overflows. And if it was upstairs here, all of a sudden the damage starts. But when it was filling up, we didn't know, we didn't know that bathtub was going to overflow. You know, it was filling up Filling up accumula. This is our bodies accumulating toxins at the cellular level because the cellular pathways of the detox that every cell has have been diminished. And then boom, overflows, damage. And this is where we are as a country dealing with the damage, the fallout. So imagine this. Imagine if I had two glasses of water, one filled all the way to the top. This is where most of humanity, well, people in this country, just a little shake, little stress to that bucket and we cause an overflow damage symptoms, if you will. But what if we can get it down to where it's half quarter, okay. And we shake it then. Now nothing happens. Now we can really stress the system. Nothing happens. This is where we should be. Our cells have to be able to get rid of toxins day in, day out. So to answer your question, that's what I do, that's what I've taught for 20 years. How do we do that with my children? I told you the story. Instead of teaching doctors, which I still do that, but I've been really excited with my kids working, starting a company called Pompa Program that takes that directly to people looking for an answer.
B
Right.
A
You know, looking for how do I get my life back? Right. So now we're teaching people the process and it's gone viral.
B
Yeah, I just took the test.
A
So you.
B
You probably see thousands of results. Is it normally pretty bad?
A
Normally it's pretty bad, yeah, because it's.
B
From zero to seven. The more pink, the worse. Right.
A
So what we did on that particular test, it's one. It's a very easy test to assess your mem. Your cell membranes inflammation. All right? I mean, there. That's a whole conversation there of why that's important. But. But right now, the more inflamed your cell membranes, the worse you feel. Okay. There's a. There's a saying, life and death begins on your membranes. And I didn't come up with a saying, but it's true. Meaning it impacts health to that degree, it impacts your hormones to that degree. So the membrane, the better the membrane, the easier it is to get in nutrition and to get toxins out of the cell. But when that membrane becomes inflamed and the number one thing that drives cellular inflammation or these certain toxins that we're discussing, and once that membrane becomes inflamed, now you can't get the good stuff in now you can't get the toxins out. Toxins continue to build up in that cell. And the problem with that is now your DNA is in there, and the genes start getting triggered. So all of a sudden, the susceptibilities of your autoimmune, your thyroid condition, your diabetes that you may have inherited from your parents, because we all get weaknesses, and now they're turned on. That's called epigenetics. So you didn't get the thyroid condition because your mom had it. No. You got a susceptibility. But then that. That gene got turned on again. The number one thing that does that is toxins in the cell. Wow. Yeah.
B
That's interesting, because a lot of people say, oh, I have a family history of this disease, whether it's cancer or something. And then they get it, and they're like, oh, it's genetic.
A
Yeah. So we.
B
There.
A
There's maybe 1 to 3% of conditions are purely genetic.
B
Wow. That's super low.
A
But most of it is epigenetic, meaning those genes can be turned on and they can be turned off. But just to finish that point is that that test looks at cellular inflammation. It's measuring, really, lipid peroxidation. What does that mean? It means oxidized fat in the membrane. The cell membrane is fat. So we're able to measure that by measuring something called melanaldehyde. And then that is a key indicator that your cells are inflamed, oxidized. So your test was actually really good.
B
Yeah.
A
Your tests.
B
Look, I like tests like this. I get down to the root cause.
A
Yeah.
B
You know.
A
Well, that's exactly right, because the. The root cause of why most people don't feel well is inflammation. So you. You said that. Right? It's like we're not just measuring something that's, you know, you know, really way down, way downstream as far as, like, really what it means. We're measuring something of why people don't feel well. When those cells get inflamed, you don't feel well. So imagine this. And. And this is why we have so many hormone challenges today. On every. When the cell becomes inflamed, the receptors to hormones are on that membrane. So if we block those receptors. Right. And there's multiple ways, that happens because of how toxins interact with these. But if we do that, your hormones can't communicate to that receptor. So hormones have to come in and dock or attach to that receptor and get the message in the cell. If something's stopping that, it doesn't matter what your blood levels of the hormones are. It. It. It's irrelevant, because if it doesn't get its message in the cell or the hormone gets in the cell, you don't feel well no matter what. So, you know, that's, that's. The issue is not how high or low your blood hormones level are. I mean, that it matters to some degree. But the bigger issue is, are they getting in the cell? And if your cells are inflamed, the answer is it's being hindered. It's called hormone resistance.
B
Wow.
A
You know, so think about insulin resistance, which is type 2 diabetes. You have plenty of insulin, but the problem is, is it can't get its job done because of the resistance at the membrane. It's like your cell phone. Cell phone is useless if you're in the middle of the desert, even though it's on and working, if there's no tower or it can't connect to a tower. So think of your hormones that way, right? So the moment then the cell phone is able to connect to a tower. Okay? Now it's working again. Again. When your hormones aren't getting in the cell because something's blocking it, toxins, driving inflammation, you're not going to feel good. And you go to your doctor and you say, you know, I think my thyroid's not working because my hair is brittle. You know, I got all these signs. I, you know, fatigue, I'm gaining weight, I have no energy, I have dry skin. Okay. All of it. A constipated, you know, you go. And he looks at your blood work. Normal. Your thyroid level is normal. Okay. It may be another 10 years before it's out of range. But in the meantime, it's because thyroid hormone isn't getting in the cell because your cells are inflamed because of certain toxins or thyroid hormone has to go from an inactive form, T4. Okay. That's what most people take when they're taking hormones. And it has to be converted into an active form that's able to go in the cell called T3. Yeah, certain toxins block that conversion. So that's a big problem of why people can look at their blood and go, it's normal. I'm taking my medication, it's making it normal. But I don't feel well, doc. Right, well, just, you know, keep taking it. And meanwhile, you need more and more hormone, typically even to get the same response because your cells are becoming more and more deaf to the hormones. Like shouting at your kids in the beginning. I don't know if you have kids.
B
I got dogs.
A
Not yet. Okay. Yeah, it's the same with a dog. But if you shout at them in the beginning, it kind of Works like taking a lot of hormones and. But after a while, it works less and less. They start hearing you less and less. But that's the hormone game that we're playing. Even in the alternative world, there's a time and a place for hormones, but it's. It's not the answer. How's it working out? Not because we're not getting to the cause. And you said that.
B
Absolutely. You mentioned cell phones earlier. There's some concerning studies on those now with the emf. Right. Potential birth defects.
A
Yeah. And yeah, there are. There's a lot of studies about that and people ignore it. But on one of my social media clips that got millions of views, I measured it and I showed the difference of a cell phone here in your hand on speakerphone. Okay. Where distances your friend? That 12 inches is a massive difference in the amount of non ionizing radiation that creates cellular energy to the point of heat, to the point of damage. So the point is, is that when you put it here, it's way more damaging than just putting it on speakerphone here. So when I'm on my cell phone, I'm right here. I also did a video that got taken down that had millions of views of using the. I. I don't even want to say the. Yeah, yeah. Because every time I say the word, it does. It's like for day. So we'll say the things that go in your ear that create music without wires. Okay. The problem is it's massively higher in the amount of EMF that those things are putting off directly into your head.
B
So that's concerning.
A
Yeah. So wire in use the old style. I hate to tell you, I actually.
B
Just got rid of my Tesla.
A
Yeah, Well, I did a video measuring that.
B
Oh, you did? Yeah, and it was high.
A
Oh, well, okay, I'm gonna say this. So in beginning, these things were way higher. They've shielded them. I think at least people have told me that. I don't know that for sure, but it was not as high as I thought it would be. Your darn cell phone on your ear is worse.
B
Okay.
A
That said a lot of people can't tolerate Teslas.
B
Some people got sick in them.
A
Yeah, exactly. And I. In the beginning when they came out, I felt the emf.
B
Yeah.
A
And you're probably pretty sensitive to it. I was very sensitive. And I think I still. I can feel it when I'm in too high of a field.
B
Apparently when you're charging it and sitting in it, that's when it's the highest.
A
Oh, that would be the Highest.
B
Yeah, yeah. So I used to do that. A lot of people do that at the supercharging stations.
A
Yeah, yeah.
B
Crazy.
A
You don't want to do that, but yeah. I mean, there's some level of EMF there.
B
Yeah. I mean, it feels like these days I see all your videos. It's like almost every product you have to look into these days.
A
You know, Forever chemicals. I did a lot of videos on the exposures. Unknowing to most people. There's over 10,000 products that we're exposed to this forever chemicals. Your audience is so educated. But these are the chemicals. They last forever in the environment. They've been linked and awarded for cancer causing cancer. Non Hodgkin's lymphoma. That's glyphosate. It's another topic. But all these other cancers. Thyroid cancer, hormone disruption. If you haven't seen. Have you seen the movie Dark Waters?
B
No.
A
Yeah.
B
Is that the glyphosate movie?
A
It. No. That is about the forever chemicals. Watch Dark Waters. This attorney really went up against the big boys in this industry who knew they were causing this problem.
B
Whoa.
A
And now millions and millions of dollars have been awarded to people damaged by these chemicals. And it's. It's scary. I took a picture of the end of the movie because it said 99.9% of every living creature on the earth they're finding these forever chemicals in.
B
So it's in us right now.
A
It's in us.
B
Oh my gosh.
A
And it's a massive hormone disruptor. Where are we getting these exposures? The biggest one was Teflon.
B
Really?
A
Yeah. So people, the non stick pans. There's been some videos out there on Teflon flu and how people in the home getting headaches and they don't realize it's their pans.
B
Wow.
A
Yeah. So Teflon flu. But there's so many other sources. Water resistant clothing, dental floss. The glass. Exactly. A lot of the dent. Not all. But you have to find the dental flosses that don't have it. Certain eye drops, tissues, just everything stain resistant. I mean, all of these things carry these forever chemicals that are getting inside of us in our children, causing hormone disruption. You add it to the plastic, you add it to the mercury, you add it to the aluminum. Yeah. You better know how to detox correctly. And I want to point out that though it's not like people, they think that there's all these detox scams out there. Take these drops, Take the detox drops. It's not like that it's. It's not that simple.
B
Yeah, parasite cleanse.
A
I mean, all of it. Right. In people that have parasites to a problem there. There's something bringing their immune system down that's allowing it. When I was sick myself and I always. I had to beat back parasites. I kept getting parasites. It was because what it was my immune system that was being distracted. The fact that I had such high mercury levels in my brain.
B
So they got through your system.
A
Yeah, so that, you know, they're opportunistic. Right. So Epstein Barr. 70, 80 of the population has Epstein barr. But why aren't they all sick? So opportunistic. Lyme. They're finding 90% of certain areas in the northeast have Lyme disease. But they're not sick. Right. So it's opportunistic. Right. There's certain parasites like T. Gandhi. It's a parasite. There was just a recent article in it. Like 60 million people are estimated to be affected by T. Gandhi. But people are fine until something brings down their immune system. And then this parasite goes crazy. And that's the parasite that people think you just get from cat boxes. You get it from. Not like fruits and vegetables. Right. Especially sprayed ones where these things can exist because the plant doesn't have defenses. Right. So anyways, the bottom line is people have this in them for years. And in the article it said, then all of a sudden they end up sick. And it's like as if they just got it, but they had it for years. Same with Epstein Barr. Oftentimes same with other parasites.
B
That would make sense why the pandemic was so deadly. Because everyone's immune got weakened.
A
Absolutely.
B
So if these parasites are already in your bodies, it.
A
It comes out.
B
Wow, I never knew that. I always thought you ate something and then.
A
Yeah. And that parasite stays in the body. Not every parasite does that. However, once you. Your immune system's down here, your exposure, I mean, not, you know, getting things off of fruits and vegetables is very common and. But your body deals with it. When it's immune system is normal. Yeah. But when it's not, the force field is low. Now these things proliferate. They take over.
B
They're acting.
A
Yeah, you're. You're think of your immune system as the force field. Right. It's protecting you always. But what if something's bringing down the force field Right. Now, Candida. Now parasites right now, these things run, you know, rampant. I was constantly having to knock back my Candida as well. Wow. And I would just come back, I'd battle it. Battle it until I got my mercury level down to a certain point. Then my immune system was working with me. No more candida problems or parasite problems.
B
What diet were you on to fix your sickness?
A
When I was sick, I couldn't tolerate any grains, hardly at all. My gut was leaky at a point, but now I can eat gluten and without reacting. But yeah, so I was. I stuck to a very, you know, meat and vegetable diet. Honestly, that just did the best for me.
B
Yeah, I think if people are sick, just eliminating is the best diet. Right?
A
Yeah, exactly. I mean, you could just take away a lot of those things and, you know, just to give your body a chance to de. Inflame and the gut to heal. And of course, I went all organic. Of course. I mean, I was eating. I was eating well before I got sick. I. I was healthy. I mean, I. I grew up healthy. I didn't grow up the way kids did. This was back in 1999 when I first started getting sick. But yeah, I mean, it was just the amount of mercury I was accumulating again, it was filling my bucket, filling my bucket. Then I had two silver fillings drilled out.
B
Damn.
A
And that's when my bucket overflowed. And I was living in a low grade moldy home at the time and didn't know it, but I. It took me years, three years to figure out that that is what it was. So I chased my adrenals, I chased my thyroid, I chased these gut problems. I chased it all, and I could fix none of them until I got to the cause. And that when I realized then it was. I was working with a very bright endocrinologist because I knew my thyroid wasn't working right, even though my blood work was normal, but it was definitely low function. And he said, I think you have mercury toxicity. Your body temperatures are low and sometimes they're up and I'm sweating at night. And I said, yeah, I thought so too. A year or so before that, I found Mad Hatter's disease. And what that is is that people were using mercury that made felt hats because it attenuated molds in the felt. But anyways, they got. They were known as mad hatters. I had every symptom of the irritability. I did. I had every symptom. So I'm like, this is it. I went and I got. I remember I got $5,000 worth of blood work that day as well. I ran everything I could because I was at Allegheny General Hospital, the best head of toxicology. I ran all these Blood work tests, I. Cancer markers, autoimmune markers, you name it, I ran it. And one of the tests was the mercury. Blood test came back normal. Matter of fact, all my tests came back normal. You know, relatively. His exact words were, son, you're healthier than me. So, of course, that was not a good day. I left there, like, really. Yeah. No, because I wanted to find something wrong. Right. I was looking for my answer. But anyway, so I said no. I did a blood test. It was normal. He said, ah, that's wrong test. That's. If you had an acute exposure like the Mad Hatters, then you would. It would show up in the blood. But it's not going to be in the blood because it's in your tissues. Oh, it was. It was in my brain. It was all through my body.
B
Now I see why you started the company then.
A
Yeah, that's. That's it. My passion. Pain to purpose.
B
Yeah, that's. That's good for people to know, though, because they think they get a regular blood test at the hospital. It measures like 10 things. They're good.
A
Yeah, yeah, it's. It's. Listen, I did it all. I had access to conventional testing, unconventional testing. I did it all. And, you know, again, how did I get my life back? And people see all my videos of these people, that their testimonies are pretty amazing. Get to the cause. Right? And even alternative medicine today, I've been more critical because we're doing a lot of fancy genetic testing, a lot of fancy tests. But ultimately, how do people get their lives back? You have to remove the interference and the body will heal. It sounds so simple, but yet we're violating it constantly. You know, your body. We're not getting these chronic diseases, most of which because we lack things. Yeah. I mean, granted, do people lack vitamin D, vitamin K2, iodine, certain minerals? Absolutely. But most of it is because we are building up a level of toxicity that is absolutely decimating our immune system, our gut. You can try to fix your gut, you know, till the cows come home is the saying goes, but you're not going to be able to fix it unless you figure out what toxins are upstream, up the river, further, that are killing all the fish downstream. Yeah. I mean, that's your microbiome, but yeah. So we have to get to these causes. If we don't, people aren't going to get their lives back. That's my passion. I have to tell this part of the story always because it's. I think it'll give people hope. But when I Was at my worst. I had two young kids at the time. I have five now. But my wife, who. It's always very hard on the other loved ones around you. And I hid it from my indirect family because I was embarrassed that I was sick. But she literally on her knees, crying out to God for an answer for me and the family. You know, God spoke to her heart and said, not only am I going to get him well, but he's going to take a message to the world. And when she would tell me that, I say, I don't even want to hear it. I don't even want to hear that, because that just puts more pressure on me. I can't even get myself well. And now here I sit here, because she was right. I've been taking a message to the world. So our family saying is, from pain to purpose. Because everything I teach came out of my illness. But pain to purpose, to promise. So, meaning that was the promise God gave that my wife held on to, my kids held on to, and I eventually held on to. I was the slowest to come around.
B
Man, that's beautiful, dude. Yeah, that's so beautiful. And now you're getting million millions of views a day.
A
Yeah.
B
I just saw your video on Christmas trees. Artificial Christmas trees.
A
Yeah, I was.
B
Concerning. No one's ever talked about that.
A
Yeah. You know, it's the flame retardant. I smell it. When you buy new things. Electronics, cell phones, computers, cars. Cars. Yeah, in the seats. That smell is. It's a chemical concoction, but it's very high in bromine. Well, why is that a concern? Because bromine disrupts thyroid. It's a thyroid disruptor, and it's linked to cancer and other things. But the problem is, is people are taking so much of this chemical. And so when I get my cell phones, they're wiped down. I like vinegar or hydrogen peroxide. But that Christmas tree, we had to wipe every limb. And luckily I smell it like, Susan. I was like, oh, man, this is loaded. So literally, we use vinegar. And I had, you know, every single branch. Every branch, yeah. It took under an hour. It wasn't even that.
B
Well, there's like five of you guys, though.
A
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. But, yeah, so you have to be really careful of what you're bringing in the house. Yeah. So if. If it's summertime, it's easy. You can put it outside in the sun and it literally gases off. You know, the. The sun literally causes this off gassing to happen very fast.
B
That's so nice. Can people. When people get A new car. They're like, oh, a new car smell.
A
Yeah, yeah. That. That's the flame retardant in the electronics and in the seats. The foam of the seats. So again, when I get a new car, I put it in the. I off gas, I put it in the heat, but then don't get in the car. Right. The worst thing you can do is there's your car off, gassing, heated up, windows closed, then you get in it, turn your system on, is blowing bromine right in your face. So literally, I off gas it. You know, it's. The first year is the worst.
B
Yeah.
A
Yeah.
B
That's so nuts. Yeah. I got to get a real tree this year.
A
Yeah. Well, again. And then you can. They're now selling healthier trees because a lot of chemicals. Yeah. Because you're bringing a lot of chemicals. I have to do that video. Actually, you're bringing a lot of different chemicals in your house when you bring a real tree in oftentimes, really, people have brought ticks in.
B
What?
A
And got tick bites. So you have to be careful. Now, it depends on what area. If you're in a cold area, you're not bringing ticks in in the winter with a Christmas tree, but warmer areas. Holy crap.
B
So.
A
But the chemicals you're bringing in. So again, a lot of people that don't, they buy a regular Christmas tree. They. They hose it off just to get the chemicals. Yeah.
B
Oh, I guess. Pesticides, right?
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah.
B
I didn't even think.
A
Yeah, but see, I don't even understand that because until I heard that. Because pine trees are hardy. Right. You know, they typically don't. So I don't. I don't know, like, where these chemicals that, you know, why they're spraying them with pesticides that you'd think that they don't need, but the industry. So it's so much money.
B
Yeah.
A
That they're. If there's even one, you know, pest that could take down their profits, they're going to get after it because they.
B
Probably want them to grow as quick as possible.
A
Yeah.
B
And as healthy as possible.
A
Exactly. Yeah. So they're using chemicals.
B
Where are you grocery shopping these days?
A
You know, honestly, I. We have a little. A little grocery store in our area. We have a Whole Foods and we have the little one. We prefer the little one.
B
Okay.
A
Yeah. I mean, as. As, you know, you know, Whole Foods is just. It's getting. You know, I literally have to do videos there to say, this is what's healthy, this is what's not. Right. You know, it's getting harder. You get a lot of rancid bad seed oils in a lot of health food stores. You still have to be cautious of.
B
I used to love the whole foods hot food bar, but then I saw your video on all the seed oils and that was like, yeah, wow. I got to cut that out.
A
You know, seed oils is very misunderstood. Even right now in the alternative world, everyone has come after omega 6. Omega 6 is so bad, right? Omega 6 is so bad. Well, omega 6, rancid, omega 6 is bad. Right. So the seed oils that are a very high in omega 6, they're bad because they're rancid. So when you buy them in potato chips or pretzels or processed foods, you know, those foods on the deli, they're so heated, they're rancid. And the reason they're bad is because Omega 6 in that cell membrane is so important. So the fact is, is that those rancid Omega 6 go right into the membrane where they belong, but they're rancid and oxidized, and so they disrupt the function of the membrane. I already made the argument for how important that is for your hormones and just feeling normal. But that's why seed oils are damaging. So could seed oils be done? Right? Yeah, they can cold pressing, but you're not gonna find that in a processed packaged food. It's not, it's a very. Like if you open a bottle of real sesame seed oil, it's like, oh, it smells like sesame seeds. Right. That's cold pressed, you know, protected. So seed oils could be good. But what we're ingesting is all rancid omega 6 in these seed oils.
B
Canola oil.
A
Yeah, exactly. Canola oil, vegetable oil, they're always rancid. Always.
B
Even some olive oil, I heard.
A
Oh, yeah, even some olive oil. Yeah. Even avocado oil. They're cutting now with other oils. Yeah. So you have to even be careful with that. You have to make sure it's 100% pure. It's just like the olive oil game. They were cutting olive oil with vegetable oil.
B
I order mine from Brian Johnson now. Yeah, I pay a little more, but I'd rather have a peace of mind.
A
When that's a first pressed oil. Yeah. So that's a really good oil. I do too.
B
Yeah. Did you see what they are spraying the vegetables with at the grocery stores? Like that mist?
A
Yeah.
B
Is that water or what is that?
A
Yeah, it's something Max, it's called. But yeah, it's not just water. So they use. They Use like a bleach in it because it keeps the vegetables, you know, staying fresher. But you know, I, you know, most people aren't choosing to consume bleach even though in those amounts they're saying is safe. Well, I, you know, I don't want bleach sprayed on vegetables. Yeah.
B
Have you seen the APL yet?
A
Yeah. Apl? Yeah.
B
Is that at the stores yet?
A
Yeah, oh yeah, it's, it's the stores now. You have to ask your grocery store, do you use a peel? And some Whole Foods, I think are saying no now, maybe some aren't. But you, it, you know, Sprouts was using it. Maybe they changed it. Yeah, maybe they changed again. I, I don't want to throw anyone under the bus if I don't know for sure because I know a lot of these companies are pulling back.
B
Yeah.
A
But that said. Yeah, so what they're doing, it sounds so innocent. They're using like the peels of, you know, fruits and vegetables and it's this protective coating that makes the food last longer. And think about how wonderful that is. But the problem is, is that you're, you're concentrating all of the pesticides in this, you know, this coating that you're putting on, you know. Yeah, I don't want that.
B
Yeah, I get it from a business point of view, but just.
A
Oh yeah, totally.
B
Why? It doesn't make sense.
A
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah.
B
They're always trying to cut costs. Yeah. Your videos are so interest because the kitchen is a really dangerous place if you don't know what you're doing, basically.
A
Yeah, yeah. No, it's true. I mean, people just use plastic cutting boards and the amount of plastic you're getting in just, you know, from using that is a big problem. Obviously the, all the non stick stuff that people are using that has the forever chemicals in it. I did a video that got 2 million views on sponges.
B
I saw that one.
A
Well, it was funny. This is a funny story because I was out with a couple whose kitchen that was last night.
B
Oh yeah.
A
So they're like, they're like, yeah, Papa pulls out my sponge. Two million people know that my sponges. I'm like, no, everyone's are here was the best part. She had the better answer. They have those silicone things that you can rub on the pans. Right. Which are better. But sponges hold bacteria and people look, if you got new ones every two days, it would be one thing. Right. But fact is, is they're there for weeks. Right. And these things and people throw them in the dishwasher.
B
That's gross.
A
But the study showed it didn't kill them because it just tucked in, you know, deeper into this.
B
I love the scrub dies. But when I saw that video, I.
A
Was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
B
People to clean their counters too. So they're just spreading.
A
No. And then you're spreading bacteria, and I'm not. I'm no bacteria. You know, monger. I. I don't fear bacteria, but the level of bacteria in that is really nasty. Did you see the video I did on the hair, the hand dryers? No. Okay. It was. It was funny. I. This is kind of a Covid. Funny thing because, you know, that's when these dryers went in everywhere because God forbid, you know, we might transmit bacteria if people touch, you know, the paper towel machine. I don't know. But anyway, so the hand drawers went in everywhere. The fact is, they spread bacteria, like, far worse. So people put their hands in. So they put augers and collected bacteria in bathrooms that had them back to bathrooms that didn't, you know. And it was the mat. It was massive difference of bacterial spread.
B
Yeah, I didn't even think about that because that's in every high school bathroom.
A
Yeah, absolutely. And they did it because, oh, you know, it'll lessen the transmission of bacteria. Exact opposite. Yeah.
B
So I'm not trying to be over dramatic, but when I go in a public restroom with urinals, I hold my breath.
A
Yeah.
B
It's just like. Like the smell from the urinal, plus, like all other stuff.
A
God. Yeah. All the air fresheners too.
B
It's like disgusting.
A
Yeah, that's the thing. You know, I think I did a video on the. The most overlooked toxin in the home is, I believe, fragrance. Okay. So, yes, people use plugins probably because they're covering up a mold smell, which is a whole nother argument for causing health problems. But anyway, so. But that plugins, these things on average have like six neurotoxins, endocrine disruptors in them. I mean, these things are horrible. And then what are people washing their clothes in? When you walk by their, you know, washroom, you. You know if it's a hormone disrupting washroom or not. No. I did a video where my wife and I were walking our dogs.
B
Yeah.
A
And literally, we want. You could tell the homes. You would walk by and I would say, those homes are hormonally disrupted. My wife be like, what do you mean? I'm like, you could smell the fabric softener and the scents.
B
Wow.
A
That are massive hormone disruptors. What you wash your clothes in is a big thing. Right. And because you're washing your seats, you're in them eight hours. And your clothes are on you for, you know, whatever. Eight hours. It's these chemicals absorb through your skin. It's transdermal. And these hormone disruptors, that's how we put on hormones. A lot is transdermal. And you're putting these hormone disruptors into your body every day. These scents are. They're protected by IP laws, meaning they don't even have to tell you the chemicals that are. They're putting into these. Yeah. So that's why they're deadly. In matter of fact, a lot of these things are outlawed and they're still in these fragrances. So I avoid fragrance in shampoos. What we're washing our dishes in our clothes, in cleaners, plug ins, avoid fresheners, avoid all these scents. Bad stuff. Unless it's from essential oils.
B
Yeah.
A
Right.
B
So what about candles?
A
Yeah, same thing. Natural essential oil, candle, totally different. But all those fragrances, avoid them.
B
That's crazy. Yeah. The clothing I've been looking into, like, the, the polyester stuff is terrible for you. That's plastic, right?
A
Yep.
B
So I try to wear linen or organic cotton.
A
Yeah, me too. Yeah. Especially the underwear. I did a video on that because again, these are fragile tissues here. Very absorbent. You don't want to put chemicals close to those. I got. I had Instagram put false evidence, partly or fall anyways, evidence on one of my videos I did with, you know, tampons having arsenic and lead. But they did. And so I sent them the study. I'm like, yeah, so it's like. I'm not just mouthing off here. Here it is. Right. And the problem with that is, is again, it's the tissues that it's touching.
B
Yeah.
A
Right.
B
So did they update the video or.
A
No, I think that one they actually did.
B
Okay.
A
After we sent them the study. But there was another one that I did recently. They didn't. I was like, man, that. That's not right.
B
I haven't been hit with one of those in a while. Was this recently?
A
Yeah, it was. It was recently. Oh, wow. Yeah.
B
Because I thought they leaned off of that after the Trump stuff.
A
Yeah. Praise God that they are going to be leaning off.
B
Yeah. So, you know, I can't even mention, like autism.
A
I know.
B
Like the C word. Like.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
If you cure anything.
A
I know. Yeah. We. We don't use the C word. Right. We don't use the C word. But yeah. And you. You can't you know, that's not free speech.
B
Right.
A
You know, you should, you should still have a right to. Even if it's not a correct statement, false statement, you still have a right to bring it. Your, your opinion. Right. Even if I don't agree with your opinion. But that's not what's happened on social media, is it?
B
Not at all. Yeah, but that's the goal with my show. I'll have on both sides and I'll let my viewers decide on who they lean towards.
A
Yeah, exactly. You know, Exactly. I mean, I, I thank God we still live in a country. I think it's going to get better that we can have different opinions and talk about it and debate about it. But that, that wasn't what was happening. No. Yeah.
B
Not the past few years.
A
Right? Not the past few years.
B
You get Shadow banned.
A
You know, and that's the thing is like, I, I don't know. I mean, I don't care what side you on. Didn't people see that? I mean, that was, it was insane.
B
I mean, Facebook admitted they were censoring certain things.
A
Oh, yeah, exactly. Now Zuckerberg is. Went in to meet with Trump. This is.
B
He just donated a million.
A
Yeah. I think he should have done more. I mean, much he caused. Right. I mean, come on, man. He took the President, booted him off as, you know, like, come on. I, I think if I would have sat down with Zuckerberg, the first question I would have asked is, why? Why'd you do it? Who made you do it? I want to know.
B
He probably got some pressure, I'm sure. Yeah, yeah. Elon Musk has been under attack too, lately.
A
Yeah, I know. And you know, how, how are we criticizing these people again? Forget about your sides. These people are going to go. I don't care what side you're on. The government is polluted, man. Talk about waste. Yeah, right. It's like they're going to go in from a business perspective and clean this. Who is against this? How is this possible?
B
I saw Elon realized how many people were working from home at the government. It was like 99.
A
Yeah. Oh, yeah, right. Like you talking about waste right there. That was one of the big things he did with Twitter. He got criticized for. He's like, letting all these people go, come back to work or go. Right. He let all the company go. Oh, it's going to go out of business. Nope. It's running leaner than ever with a fraction of the, the employees.
B
And now they're like the number one social platform in terms of views, I think.
A
Yeah. I thought he was going to fail. Everyone said.
B
I did doubt him too.
A
Yeah, I, I think everyone at some point was like, oh my gosh. A little like this is. That's insane. He's getting rid of all these people, right? Yeah, yeah.
B
He said a president, man. Are you going to be working with rfk?
A
Yeah, we're doing a lot. We're doing some documentaries and things with Jeff Hayes. Have you ever. Yeah. You interviewed Jeff?
B
What does he do?
A
He's documentary guy. He's put out some. The real Fauci. I mean he's put out some controversial stuff. Amazing work he does. So, yeah, with Dell Big Tree, we're going to be putting out some amazing, amazing.
B
Yeah, I'm really excited. I've never seen politics care about health ever.
A
Yeah.
B
You know?
A
Yeah. And again, put your politics aside, man. You know, he has been and always was for making America healthy again. And his heart is for children.
B
Yeah.
A
I mean he, it, I, I know him and it's like I, it's. He is so for it and about it and he always has been. Before he ever had any desire to enter the ring of politics, this is what his game was. You know, he cleaned up the Hudson, man. Wow. It's like, you know, I mean, if people really care and understand the environment, this dude has done more for the environment than most people are just talking points, you know, and the whole movement is now all political and it's really not even about, you know, making the environment clean because they're missing the real problems. This guy doesn't.
B
Yeah. I love how he speaks his mind. He's the first one I've seen in that space questioning vaccines for kids.
A
Yeah. You know, look, if people understood, because I know that people are saying anti vaxxer. He's this, he's this. Right. And they, they're labeling him. Right. And big Pharma, I'm sure is, is really driving that the, the vaccines are again, I might get this shut down. But it's true. It's the cash cow of big Pharma. And the reason it is for two things and this. These two things are exactly what Bobby wants to change. Right. And if people understood that, I believe people from all sides would go, well, that's smart. Of course we want that. Here's what he wants. This is all he wants. Number one, he wants every vaccine to be treated like every other drug. Meaning you have to prove safety through double blind clinical trials. Wait a minute, we're doing that? No, they're not. And he's prove it. Go to the NIH website and you can see that they're not. Okay, they're not. They don't have to prove safety. And as a matter of fact, when they prove safety, they actually go to another level of responsibility, basically, you know, opening themselves up, making them more vulnerable. Number two is vaccines are the only drug that you cannot sue a drug company for damage.
B
Wow.
A
Meaning if you get injured, can't sue for injury.
B
That's crazy.
A
They've established the vaccine court, which is bankrupt, that you have to sue the government in order to get any type of, you know, basically money, you know, money damages. But yeah, that's the sad reality. So Bobby wants to change those two things. Who is against this? Like, wait, it should be treated just like every other drug. Prove safety. Right. That alone is going to make a safer product. Number two, that we can be able to sue if we're damaged like every other drug. So therefore, that's why they'll spend billions of dollars oftentimes to prove safety, but also to make the safest product. Right. Okay, well, that's the not happening in the vaccine.
B
That's crazy. Did you get them on your kids, the vaccines?
A
No, we did not.
B
Nice.
A
No, no, because again, it was just. I'm. I'm not going to sit here and tell anyone to vaccinate or not vaccinate. I'm not going to hang myself from a noose.
B
Yeah.
A
But when I looked into it fully, this is just a choice that my wife and I were like, no way. Right. Yes. Vaccines have a lot of different toxins in them, which they would argue is okay because this is worse. If a child gets this condition or disease. I argue against that. The amount of mercury that was in these vaccines was causing problems. They started taking it out. It's gone back in in a lot of ways. But more aluminum was going in. Why are they putting these things in there? They're called adjuncts, meaning that they're there to stimulate the immune system against a dead virus. So it's how it works. And mercury's great because it also attenuates any of the bacteria pathogens. Right. So. And by the way, many vaccines are in multi stick vials still contain mercury. Wow. Because it's. It's great to keep it from contamination. So crazy. But the, the point is, is that. So the toxicity is one problem, but there's another problem. It stimulates a wrong immune system. Meaning that when you get measles, mumps, rubella, these childhood diseases, it stimulates a th.1 reaction. That's an immune response that lasts forever. Okay, you have it. But vaccines stimulate a Th2, which is an emergency reaction. That's why you need boosters. It's not forever. It's for a period of time. So when you get the vaccine, it works in the sense that it raises up antibodies, but it only lasts so long. So you need a booster. And a booster. Well, every time you re. Stimulate a TH2. Restimulate. Restimulate. You're creating this emergency reaction again and again. And many feel that's leading to more autoimmune in many fields, leading to cancer and other problems that we're seeing a rise in. And again, I. You know, I'm not saying I'm not telling anyone, but I. People need to know the truth. And I believe we need to make these safer, and I believe we need more studies, and that's what Bobby wants.
B
Yeah. And then we should at least be able to question it.
A
Right? That's right.
B
Before you would get canceled.
A
That's right. We should be able to question it. Right, Right. And then people can make a decision whether they want to vaccinate their child or not. Yeah. Right. And let. And everyone should have that choice.
B
I remember I played sports in high school. You had to get vaccines to play.
A
Yeah.
B
They wouldn't let you compete.
A
Well, in your generation, very different than mine. I probably had four vaccines in my life.
B
I think I had about 50.
A
Yeah. And today it's like, what, 78. Yeah, 78. And going up every year and keep going up. Yeah. I mean, I think most parents are concerned, especially moms, husbands. Yeah. Sorry. We just. Yeah, it's a little different, but, yeah. Moms intuitively go, oh, I don't know. Yeah. Right. And you know, when you look at the rise of autism and where it is, where it's going again, we threaten to get the shutdown. We have to be a little careful here, unfortunately. But look, I mean, people just need to dig a little deeper.
B
Absolutely.
A
And you'll go, yeah. What?
B
When was the last time you used a microwave?
A
I don't remember. That's how long it is. Yeah. You know, I. I dug into that. My son and I were doing a video, and we. Him and I really dug into that whole thing. And you know about. Like, you can't put blood in it. Right. And, you know, you can't warm blood in it and things of that sort. There's a lot of myths around it, but it's still the way it speeds up the molecules and heats food. Yeah. There's there's no doubt some damaging effects that take place.
B
And it cooks out the nutrients, right?
A
Yeah, and it cooks out the nutrients and. Yeah, so that, that is the, the truth to it. But there's also a lot of, you know, myths around that too. But still enough that where I won't use it.
B
Yeah, I stopped recently. I only use oven now to warm up food.
A
Yeah, us too. Or in a pan. Yeah, something like that.
B
When was the last time you ate fast food?
A
I was. Bet this was college. So this is even before I like, you know, I bailed on. I was raised on, you know, an Italian, you know, home cooked meals. Right. I mean, you know, it's like we didn't go out to fast food. And even when I was able to go out to fast food in high school, I rarely did it. So here I am in college and I was at State College. I went to University of Pittsburgh, but I was up visiting my girlfriend at that time at State College and someone bet me it was the end of an evening. I'm sure it was a drinking evening. And someone bet me or paid me and. And it was $20.
B
That's a lot back then.
A
Okay, so 20 bucks that I needed probably for gas to get home. So anyways, paid me $20 to eat a Big Mac, right. And I did. I think it was the mcdlt back then. Remember those? Yeah, two. Two for your time. But anyway, I ate it and we were standing there talking, everyone's talking and I'm like, I start getting this wretched stomachache mind I didn't eat this stuff, right. And so literally on the way across the street after we left, I vomited it off. So they're like, damn, I want my money back. You vomit. Said that wasn't the deal.
B
It was not atrocious. Wow, well done. You've held out for a long time.
A
It's a long time, huh?
B
That's impressive. Yeah, I can't say the same. I like, I like in and out. Yeah, unfortunately. I know it's bad for me.
A
But you do pretty well though. Like, you've changed your ways, man. I mean, your test was. It was good. Yeah. I mean, again, when you get someone you knew, you said was all the way to the right as a seven and you know that means you have a lot of membrane oxidation, right. And so many people are that way. And you know, so the fact that you're in the normal well talking to.
B
People like you, Gary Brca and all these biohackers has changed my life. Now I sauna Almost every day.
A
Yeah.
B
I'm constantly detoxing as much as possible.
A
Yeah. Well, again, I, I'm gonna. And these are good. I love saunas. Right. But what people think detox is, remember you have to fix these cell like your cells are working good. Otherwise your membrane would be inflamed. Right. But your cells are doing a good job getting rid of toxins even though you're exposed to them. But that's not the majority of people. Once these cellular pathways start to decrease, toxins build up in the cell. That's where real detox is. So it's not a foot bath. It's not, you know, this 10 day cleanse and the drops and all these things. Chlorella, cilantro. It's not that simple.
B
Yeah.
A
You, you. There's a pro. 20 years of teaching this process of upregulating cells how to use these chelators properly within their half life and then using binaries. It's a whole process that I teach.
B
Absolutely. Where can people find out more about this and yourself, man.
A
Yeah, they can go to if they want to watch a training I did. Same training I did for doctors. It's free. They can. If they go to pomprogram.com they can see that. Perfect. And it's good.
B
We'll link it below as well as your Instagram.
A
Yeah. And that same test, they'll have access to the same test you took.
B
Perfect.
A
That's a good.
B
Yeah, that's pretty easy too.
A
Yeah, absolutely.
B
Awesome. Thanks for watching, guys. Next time.
A

Digital Social Hour: Episode Summary
Episode Title: Avoid These Everyday Toxins at All Costs! | Dr. Daniel Pompa DSH #1163
Release Date: February 5, 2025
Host: Sean Kelly
Guest: Dr. Daniel Pompa
In this enlightening episode of Digital Social Hour, host Sean Kelly welcomes back Dr. Daniel Pompa, a renowned naturopathic doctor and a leading voice in the fight against environmental toxins. The conversation delves deep into the pervasive toxins infiltrating our daily lives, their profound impact on health, and actionable strategies to mitigate their effects.
Timestamp: [04:16]
Dr. Pompa emphasizes the alarming presence of heavy metals, particularly mercury and aluminum, as significant neurotoxins affecting the brain and nervous system. He highlights the generational transmission of mercury through dental fillings, stating:
Dr. Pompa [04:53]: "The number of fillings you have in your mouth is proportional to how much mercury is found in the baby's brain."
Aluminum's recent surge as a neurotoxin is attributed to its use as an additive in jet fuel, leading to nanoparticles contaminating water and food supplies. The synergistic effect of mercury and aluminum exacerbates inflammation and cognitive decline.
Timestamp: [08:31]
Addressing the ubiquitous presence of plastics, Dr. Pompa shares a startling statistic:
Dr. Pompa [08:31]: "We're drinking 240,000 microplastic particles in one liter of water."
He discusses how plastics accumulate in vital organs, including the brain, contributing to inflammation, hormone disruption, and declining IQ levels. The concept of cellular "bucket overflow" illustrates how excessive toxin accumulation overwhelms the body's detoxification pathways, leading to chronic health issues.
Timestamp: [09:25]
Dr. Pompa critiques the use of fluoride in water supplies, linking it to decreased IQ in children and various cancers. He cites government actions to reduce fluoride levels:
Dr. Pompa [09:25]: "For years, fluoride has been shown to affect IQ in children. The development of the brain."
He advises the installation of Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems to effectively remove fluoride, heavy metals, and pharmaceutical residues from drinking water, ensuring safer consumption.
Timestamp: [10:49]
Expanding on water purification, Dr. Pompa underscores the inadequacy of conventional filtration systems in eliminating complex toxins. He advocates for advanced filtration methods like RO systems to safeguard against contaminants such as aluminum and mercury, which contribute to widespread hormone dysregulation and cognitive impairments.
Timestamp: [20:12]
The discussion shifts to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) emitted by cellphones and modern technologies. Dr. Pompa reveals the heightened risks of EMF exposure, particularly when devices are held close to the body:
Dr. Pompa [20:13]: "A cell phone on your ear is worse [in terms of EMF exposure] than some other devices."
He warns of potential birth defects and cellular damage caused by prolonged EMF exposure, urging listeners to adopt safer practices like using speakerphone or limiting device proximity.
Timestamp: [43:03]
Dr. Pompa highlights the prevalence of endocrine disruptors in everyday household items. From non-stick cookware containing Teflon to fragrances laden with neurotoxins, these chemicals infiltrate the body, leading to hormone resistance and chronic health conditions:
Dr. Pompa [43:03]: "These fragrances carry neurotoxins and endocrine disruptors that are deadly."
He recommends opting for products free from synthetic fragrances and choosing natural essential oils to minimize exposure to harmful chemicals.
Timestamp: [27:58]
Dr. Pompa shares his personal battle with mercury toxicity, detailing his struggle to find accurate diagnoses despite normal blood test results. His journey from suffering in silence to founding the Pompa Program underscores the critical need for advanced detoxification methods:
Dr. Pompa [30:35]: "I have to tell this part of the story always because it gives people hope."
His story emphasizes the importance of identifying and addressing the root causes of toxin accumulation to restore health and vitality.
Timestamp: [56:29]
Addressing common misconceptions about detoxing, Dr. Pompa clarifies that effective detoxification requires more than superficial methods like foot baths or single-day cleanses. He introduces the concept of "upregulating" cellular detox pathways, a comprehensive approach involving:
Dr. Pompa [57:05]: "That's a whole process that I teach."
Listeners are encouraged to seek professional guidance to implement effective detoxification protocols tailored to their specific needs.
Timestamp: [49:53]
A contentious segment of the discussion revolves around vaccine safety. Dr. Pompa critiques the lack of stringent safety trials for vaccines, pointing out the exclusion of certain neurotoxins like mercury and aluminum:
Dr. Pompa [50:31]: "Vaccines have a lot of different toxins in them... they are called adjuncts, meaning that they're there to stimulate the immune system against a dead virus."
He advocates for treating vaccines with the same rigor as other pharmaceuticals, ensuring comprehensive safety testing and accountability for adverse effects.
Timestamp: [40:22]
Dr. Pompa examines the hidden dangers of common cleaning practices. He exposes the risks of using plastic cutting boards, non-stick pans, and fragranced cleaning products, which harbor bacteria and release harmful chemicals:
Dr. Pompa [40:27]: "Sponges hold bacteria and people look... in reality, they're there for weeks."
He advises adopting safer alternatives like silicone scrubbers, glass cookware, and fragrance-free cleaning agents to reduce toxin exposure.
Timestamp: [38:04]
The role of diet in managing toxin load is a pivotal theme. Dr. Pompa warns against the consumption of rancid seed oils high in oxidized omega-6 fatty acids, which disrupt cell membranes and exacerbate inflammation:
Dr. Pompa [38:04]: "Seed oils are damaging because they're rancid and oxidized."
He recommends choosing cold-pressed, pure oils like first-pressed olive oil and prioritizing organic, whole foods to support the body's natural detoxification processes.
Dr. Pompa concludes by reiterating the necessity of addressing toxin exposure at its source to reclaim health. He introduces the Pompa Program, a platform dedicated to educating individuals on effective detoxification strategies:
Dr. Pompa [57:17]: "They can go to pomprogram.com and see that."
Listeners are encouraged to access free trainings, utilize comprehensive testing available through the program, and implement the discussed strategies to reduce toxin burden and enhance overall well-being.
