hello and welcome to better way today today is monday june 3rd um or tuesday june 4th depending on where you’re joining us from um depending on wherever you are watching us if you’re in the newsroom on our website if you’re watching us on rumble on facebook on Getter. Take a minute to say hello in the chat and let us know where you’re tuning in from. Maybe let us know if it is Monday, June 3rd, or if it’s June 4th, wherever you are. Let’s see, today we have a great interview between Francesca Havens from our WCH team and the FLCCC’s Christina Moros. Christina is an advanced practice certified registered nurse and a Let’s see, and Christina has been, sorry, my notes just froze. Christina has been following the science of COVID-19 since the beginning of the pandemic and learned of FLCCC early in 2020, shortly after Dr. Corey testified about ivermectin before the US Senate. In April 2020, she came on board with FLCCC as the clinical support specialist and first nursing advisor in the organization. She started Nurses for FLCCC to promote grassroots activity between nurses and patients and to promote prevention and early treatment of COVID-19 with FLCCC’s protocols. She also helps develop teaching materials for FLCCC, including infographics and educational videos, as well as the brain and mental health guide that we’re going to talk about today. Before we get started with that interview, I have a few announcements to go over, so let me bring those up. Next week on Better Way Today, we will have Karina Acevedo-Whitehouse. She’s joining us from Mexico. Christoph Ploth interviews her and they discuss about her new book, a groundbreaking book, Adverse Effects, a critical review of COVID-19 vax genes, the most comprehensive publication on the science of the different vax genes, which are COVID gene therapy injections. And the following week, On the 17th of June, we have a representative from a partner of the World Council for Health. Tanya De Jong is one of Australia’s most successful female entrepreneurs and innovators, having developed six businesses and four charities. She works across the public, private, creative, and social sectors. She founded Creativity Australia, Creative Universe, MTA Entertainment, and Events, and The Song Room. She also co-founded Mind Medicine Australia, Australia’s leading non-for-profit organization working on the use of psychedelic-assisted therapies to treat a range of mental illnesses and expand treatment options available to medical practitioners and their patients. It’s hard to believe, but the Better Way Detox Fair is almost here. It is just over a week away. This fair will empower and educate you to take action to optimize your health, boost your immune system, and improve your well-being. And we have some exciting news to share. I don’t know if you can hear my cat. My cat is also excited about this news. Head over to betterwayevents.org to learn more about this exciting event, and you can secure your tickets there. We’re also excited to let you know about an exclusive opportunity for our valued ticket holders. As part of the fair, we’re offering live and dry blood analysis sessions, a unique and insightful way to assess your health. And since places are limited, we want to give you the Make sure that you have the opportunity to pre-book your slots before we open the booking to new ticket holders, which should be happening today. So if you are interested in attending this fair and you haven’t bought your ticket yet, you can book your tickets today and have access to this as well. Blood analysis is incredibly important. Blood is vital to our health. It is the river of life, providing oxygen to every cell, holding immune system cells to alert us to threats, and carrying chemical messages to maintain health. Live blood analysis involves taking a drop of blood from your fingertip, placing it under a microscope, and magnifying it 1,000 times. You’ll be able to see your own cells up on the screen while the analyst explains what is happening in your blood. So this could reveal whether cells are producing normally or if they’re damaged, signs of coagulation or clotting issues, debris indicating cellular or toxic waste, and so much more. So don’t miss this opportunity. If you’re able to go to the Better Way Detox Fair, visit betterwayevents.org to learn more. In case you missed it, the road to Geneva at the end of last week was a huge success. You can watch live video from the We Are the Change rally that happened on Saturday in the WCH newsroom at worldcouncilforhealth.org slash newsroom.

And now without further ado, let’s get on to… Hello, Christina, and thank you so much for joining us from Florida, is it? Florida, yes. And so we’re looking forward to hearing what you have to say about this wonderful FLCCC guide for brain health and mental health. Thank you. Well, first of all, I want to thank you for having me as a guest. I’m excited to talk about it. And I thought we would begin by showing people where they can find this guide on our website. So shall I do a screen share and begin doing that? Yes, please. So, first of all, I just want to come to our website. This is our homepage. We have a navigation bar here at the top. If you go to the 3rd point resources, and you go down to tools and guides, this is a section where we have our patient centered guides and it’s also for practitioners. It just kind of breaks down our information and non medical professional terminology. So. The intention is that. Patients can go to their providers and talk about these things, and providers can share this with patients and have discussions. And providers can share this peer-to-peer as well. So we have a little search bar here. You can put in key terms and pull up whatever you’re looking for. And also here, this little magnifying glass on the top of our website, you can use that to search anything on our website, including our medical evidence, our studies, our monographs, everything you wanna know about, you can find with that search bar. And so today we’re gonna talk about the Brain and Mental Health Guide. And so when you click on it, you come to this page, which gives you a nice little summary of what is in the guide. And then when you click on this hyperlink here, it’ll bring you to this PDF that you can download and share or just read online. It’s however you prefer to explore the content. And I’m just going to briefly hit the highlights in the book, and we can talk about some aspects of this guide. This guide was written by myself and my colleague, Christina, Carmen and Suzanne at gas. I’m trying to find where where that part is. I don’t see it right now. But anyway, so we based this guide on, we have a mental health depression guide, and we have a brain health guide. So this guy has taken parts of those and combine it into a patient centered. Educational tool, so I’m going to skip. The global impacts of mental health, so I’m sure that World Council for health also already covers all these points and we talk about why it matters. I’m going to skip that too. But 1 of the 1st, most important things is the gut brain access. The gut is the key to so many imbalances within the other systems of our bodies and. When the gut isn’t in order, it can actually have an impact on mental health and depression and stress and anxiety. So it’s always good to make sure that you check out the gut and see how it’s how it’s working by gut studies, such as checking gut flora. And actually, everyone should kind of just do a sort of preventive health kind of survey over their bodies to see where we have um maybe deficiencies or inflammation and once we correct those basic things you can really set yourself on the tone to boosting your immune system and getting to a state where you don’t have to worry about all these diseases that are getting thrown our way so that reduces the patient’s anxiety and helps you focus on health and not disease um and so we kind of go in further and this is my colleague christina carmen’s expertise here about psychobiotics. And that has to do with gut flora that helps support mental health, supports the neurotransmitters, helps reduce the body’s response to stress, helps reduce inflammation. And you can read more about that here on these pages. I’m not going to go into that in detail. And then we cover depression, ways that people can to do that on their own, not necessarily using drugs, making proper food choices, adding movement into your routine, analyzing where your deficiencies are and correcting those. And there are many supportive supplements and nutraceuticals that people can use to help boost their mental health and their brain health. And we talk about those in detail in both guides and in this guide. One of my favorite things to focus on at this time, especially after the pandemic and the mandates post traumatic stress disorder, lockdowns, losing family and friends, losing jobs, having to make hard choices. That really has an impact on our mental health, whether you recognize it or not. And maybe you don’t recognize the signs of trauma and stress, but I like to address that here. I also work with veterans. I do golf therapy with veterans. It’s so much fun to help them It’s like having a support group and then you can also do an activity that’s mindful and also helps with neuroplasticity. And so become very familiar with post-traumatic stress disorder. So in this guide, we address that. We address things that people can do to help cope with those strategies, not strategies, those disorders and illness. We talk about anxiety. We talk about lifestyle adjustments that people can try. And then my favorite thing to talk about is actually neuroplasticity and doing things like mindfulness, doing different and new activities, learning a language, dancing, yoga, any type of movement, Tai Chi, for instance, as well, helps our brain heal. So we talk about that as well. Also basic things like hydration, nutrition, And then social support is so important, especially after lockdowns, especially after what we were put through as a world being separated and isolated to try to break us down and tear us apart. We emphasize in this guide how important social connections and community are, because we have to build back and make us stronger as a world to fight for humanity. And then we talk about cognitive impairment related to COVID and the trauma caused by the gene therapy shots. Also other vaccine injuries, shingles, anthrax, all of that, people do also have cognitive impairments from those shots as well. Even other vaccines, we notice a trend for, for instance, children’s vaccines as the vaccine schedule has Increase the rates of autism have increased so we try to address cognitive impairment related to these things. And again, bringing it back to lifestyle adjustments, key nutraceuticals and on and on. And you can read further about all of these. Interventions and both our mental health, sorry, our depression guide and our brain health guide. And then I love this part. We actually discussed neuroplasticity in detail. Playing games is also really fun, like trivia or chess or sports. Super fun and great ways to improve the brain. I really do like golf. That’s one of my favorite new things, but that’s a really great one. Exercise, movement. And what’s important as well for people who are suffering from chronic illness from the gene therapy shots, learning how to move within your normal limits because not everyone has those activity reserves. So it’s important to learn to be mindful about where your boundaries are and what activities you can do because Running a 6 minute mile is not the only way to exercise. There’s many ways to get your movement and help your body be healthy by doing different things on different activity levels. And also in our tools and guides, we have actually alternative movement guides, exercise guides, stress reduction guides. We have so much to even build in further and explain these elements of this one guide. And I cannot stress enough the importance of sleep, which I’m sleep deprived this week, but on a normal week, I try to get my sleep and try to respect my sleep hygiene and not text or watch TV when I’m trying to fall asleep. Those things are so vital to brain health. And then again, maintaining social connections. Getting out in nature, I cannot stress how important it is to bond with the world, with just having some fresh air, taking a walk and noticing trees and grass and animals and water and doing all those things that really brings you back to a center and grounded place. And that’s so important in this time that we’re in. And even doing those activities, it’s not necessarily sitting down and meditating, but even those types of nature activities are in themselves a part of mindfulness when you can be in the moment and actually respect that time and build it in and honor yourself and your time to help heal yourself in these challenging times. And then foods, food is medicine. I don’t even know how many times Dr. Christina Carmen and I have said food is medicine. It’s always important to assess what you’re putting into your body. We want to honor our bodies. Our bodies are our vessels to help us journey through this life. And what better way to get a healthy store than to respect your body and fuel it with the appropriate foods. And so we discuss those good foods in this guide. We also discuss what is probably not the best choice for your body, which actually contributes to imbalance in the brain and depression and anxiety and stress and post-traumatic stress disorder. So those little things are very important. And then we break down in the guide the top nutraceuticals that we’ve researched to support brain health and mental health. And people can read about that here. We also have a really fantastic guide called From A to Zinc. And it’s basically just a guide on nutraceuticals. We don’t promote brands to the FLCCC, but we know that some people are a little overwhelmed with Where do they start? So we try to give people reputable choices that maybe we like to use or our colleagues like to use a starting point. So people can explore and learn about what is good quality and what is not as far as nutraceuticals go. So this is kind of an example of what our A to Z guide looks like. And this is part of our brain health guide. Um, so there’s a lot of pages on this and let’s see. Um, so we have other things, um, and I don’t know if I’m pronouncing this right because it’s again is Dr Christina Carmen’s, um, area, but, uh, no other things that help support a healthy brain. Um, whether it’s helping with function or reducing stress. Um. we talk about that here. Medicinal mushrooms like lion’s fame, cordyceps, all of these things are important to explore as things that we can use to help support our bodies. Peptides is one of my favorite subjects. I’ve learned a lot from Dr. JP Salibi on this subject, and they’re so good, not only for brain health, but other things that may be in balance in the body. You can use peptides as an adjunct to help heal your body. So we talk about the ones that support the brain here. And then I love talking about this as well. I think intention setting is so important. Programming the brain and from a negative state into a positive state. And the key thing that anyone can do, maybe on a daily basis, I know I do that when I do my mindfulness, is practicing positive statements like, for instance, I am learning from others. I am progressing in my actions. And the key to setting intentions is not only saying that statement, But also believing that it’s already happening and that basically you’ve accomplished that because that helps you manifest what you want. And, you know, all the motivational speakers, this is essentially what they teach the people that follow them is how to program your brain in a positive way, because basically our outlook on life is what we see. And if we. come from it from a positive angle that makes our world more positive and also helps align the things that help fall into place and that’s part of a positive mental health so I like to focus on these things and then um we just have this one little mindful exercise as an example of a way you can go out and practice this it’s essentially doing um like a mindfulness hunt like um you know what five things do you see what five things can you touch and feel what you know what do you hear what do you smell what things do you taste just like taking this moment to actually enjoy and embody that sense in the moment is a good way to help train the brain um to pause and respect being where we are in the moment and then we have this last rain technique um And I’m not going to go into, I’m just going to let people who want to explore this guide read about it further. And then just, oh, here’s our little page about us. Dr. Suzanne Gaza, an amazing woman. She is really the top resource on brain health. She wrote the brain health guide. And then my lovely colleague here, Dr. Christina Carmen, we work very closely together. We’re both yoga teachers. We teach mindfulness and health, and we’re like the mindful dream team together. And then Dr. I’m a crna by training um but I’m also a yoga teacher so I’ve been blessed to be able to um focus on um you know these aspects of my training and be able to share that with people so that’s essentially our brain guide in a very fast nutshell I hope I didn’t go too fast No, no, that’s wonderful. And we you know, people will look at it themselves. So having your explanation is just helpful to introduce people. And there were a few things that struck me when I read it. And of course, it’s a very valuable guide because you’ve brought those two aspects together. And I think it’s really interesting to note that. i think people don’t uh often we don’t realize how many people are impacted by mental health issues anyhow um and how that uh figure has been creeping up over the last decades um and there’s many components to it as you’ve you know broken down in the guide very helpfully um and the the the thing that uh I really noticed uh whether a lot of studies have come out to show how um these mental health issues have gone up in the last years these sort of pandemic years or as we like to call them And there were two studies that were really valuable, and one of them is the de Oliveira study in 2022, where they were already looking at it, which showed that anxiety had gone up by anywhere between 18 to 44%. Depression anywhere from 6.3 to 72%. PTSD in some studies, it was shown that it had gone up as much as 85%. I mean, these are crazy figures. And suicidal ideation had gone up between 29 to 31%. And these are the direct impacts of what’s been happening on the ground with all of the isolation and there was a study in north in the north of Spain well yes in the north east of Spain in lerida which showed that this was particularly the case amongst children and obviously there has been some open discussion uh uh not so much in the mainstream media but there has been some about the impact of lockdowns and closures of schools Etc on children in particular Do you have any particular comments you’d like to add to that? I mean, you know, it’s think for a moment, the progression of social media and the disconnect. I mean, I don’t want to like trash talk video games, but I mean, you know, everything in moderation, right? Like maybe people like doing that, but I feel like there’s a breakdown and family values and parenting and society in general, which we’re not guiding our children. We’re not being strict and laying boundaries for them saying, sure, you can do this, but then you have to go do this, like go outside and play, for instance, to balance out that virtual world that they’re living in. Virtual is social media and texting. Virtual is TikTok. Virtual is video games. You become desensitized to normal human interaction when you are heavily involved in those things and you forget how to… respect people and to have normal conversations with people. Now, compound that with being locked down and being taken out of school, putting masks on children’s faces so they can’t see facial expression and communicate normally. Yeah, I think that now we especially need to prioritize trying to repair what we’ve done to our children. It’s time to get them out and do more family like activities together come back to the family foundation cooking together playing games together um having family moments together even watching a movie together I know that’s virtual but it’s still doing family time together yeah and I think you’re absolutely right but I think it applies as much to the mental health of parents and adults as it does to children because you do so often see and this was pre-pandemic but it was accentuated during the pandemic parents who are with small children or pushing strollers and they’re actually looking at their mobile phones so there’s no longer the interaction with the children And interestingly enough, in many studies, it shows that the particular impact for adolescents and children regarding, let’s say, depression, and there were four studies in countries as far apart as Malaysia Nepal Hungary and Turkey that showed that the principal problem for children which would lead to depression is chronic isolation and of course all of these virtual devices are isolation because you’re not actually talking to real people and touching people and there’s a lot to do with the energy and the warmth of a human you know body in front of you that uh actually communicates a sense of well-being and security being in the tribe and uh having real interactions and and feeling you know a love vibe you know from literally yeah yeah so um I was just uh I was also thinking that uh uh generally in in the public people aren’t aware of the fact and you’ve covered this very well in the guide that um the the the uh we often think of serotonin the feel-good neurotransmitter which people have read about widely in magazines and newspapers but we often think about it as related to the brain and I’m really pleased to see that in the guide you’ve actually specified that A lot of it’s to be found in the gut and some researchers place it at 80% of our feel-good neurotransmitter is in the gut and some place it even higher, the production of serotonin. So, you know, that leads us to that whole thing about our gut instinct, our second brain, because it’s all happening actually in the gut. Not just in the brain. And so that’s so very powerful. And knowing that and making then the link between what we’re eating, you know, and how we’re allowing the outside world to influence us and how we’re interacting with it. Is there anything further you’d like to say about that particular point? Well, I’d like to mention oxytocin as well. Hmm. And Dr. Gasser actually covers this quite well in her brain guide. But like, even building that helps people bond and helps foster proper mental health. But yes, going back to serotonin, you know, when we take when we Too much alcohol or refined sugars, processed foods, not getting enough sleep, using antibiotics, you know, all that stuff makes your gut imbalanced. And it can build up over years as well, like the damage to the gut. I’m not saying it’s not repairable, it is, but that’s why it’s so important to actually look and evaluate your gut flora to see if there’s an imbalance and try to repair that. Um, actually learned that from Dr sleepy and from Dr Christina Carmen, how important and it’s easy to do. All you do is you do a gut study. You. I mean, you have to, like, send off a specimen that you have to collect yourself and then have it tested, but it breaks down everything and it’ll show you where you have, um. Deficiencies and where you may have an overgrowth, and then you just take a certain target probiotic to fix that and then be mindful of what you’re eating as well. But it’s, it’s not impossible to fix these issues. It just. Discipline and awareness. Yeah. And I think if we even take pair it back down to even more basic stuff look just the simple fact that you’ve mentioned the stress response in the guide and. What many of us don’t realize is that when we’re actually engaged in a stress response it’s the opposite end of our body functions to rest and repair so therefore. we’re most unlikely to repair any of that damage if we’re constantly engaged in a stress response and that’s why uh actually sitting up and some of the lovely guide you have at the end about how to notice the rain the rain guide to really notice what you’re thinking and how you’re behaving and thereby deducing how much stress you’re actually allowing your body to suffer. And therefore you can subtract from all those hours of stress per day or per night, if you’re not sleeping properly or not giving yourself enough rest time, subtracting all of the repair, which most of it goes on at night. Yeah, it’s very, so important, just that simple fact. And I do love the way you also included information about the vagus nerve, because that’s all been coming to light in the last decade or so. And are there any particular facets of that that have intrigued you more than other aspects? Well, mindfulness helps retrain the vagus nerve. And at the same time, my organization is not like, when I talk about sound therapy, that’s kind of an inside joke. They actually don’t care, but we make a joke about it. Cause I love singing bowls. Like I love going to sound meditations because it’s like the easiest thing to do you. And it’s not for everybody. I have to say that I know. Um, but you literally lay on the ground and receive sound and vibration from a person playing the instruments. And, and it’s just, that’s vagal retraining, taking that moment and letting those frequencies absorb into the body. And it, It reduces your heart rate and reduces your stress response. If you have a biometric tracker, which I do, I have an aura ring. You can actually look back at that period of time and see what your heart rate and your heart rate response during that time. It even puts you into a recovery state of rest. almost it’ll put you in a deep deep sleep state deep sleep state without actually sleeping because you don’t want to fall asleep you don’t really want to fall asleep when you’re doing mindfulness you want to try to be disciplined enough to go with it also like yoga nidra like you don’t really want to fall asleep during yoga nidra that is such a great and easy thing for people to try I mean all you do You listen to someone talking to you and they make you aware of parts of the body and they guide you through imagery. And it’s a really wonderful restful thing. And you just done just like, wow, I feel like completely recharge almost like you slept. It’s really an amazing thing. So they will retraining is so important because as you were saying, when you go, go, go all the time, your cortisol, your body stress, you start depleting your cortisol, your adrenaline takes over. and it’s really important to balance and reset and you know that’s one thing that I’ve learned myself over the years because like I’m a pretty active person I’ll do a bunch of sports but um you know when you don’t sleep well and when you’ve had an active day it’s important to be disciplined and take a day of rest like it’s okay you have to go to the gym and go work out again if your training for the day is to take your time for yourself and rest and when I say rest I mean you need to schedule in your day and your business calendar Time for yourself, like, that’s what I love to tell our followers that it actually and I know it’s hard for people. I know people who are struggling to pay the bills. I mean, we are in. A tough economy right now, but you have to build in time for yourself even. You know, being a busy mom, raising kids and working, like, you really have to whether it’s 10 minutes or 5 minutes just. building that time for yourself so you can recharge, because if you’re not going to be able to recharge yourself, how are you going to be able to be a productive colleague? Exactly, exactly. And what I like, sorry, what I like about the vagus nerve, that it is really this main communication highway. And again, we often don’t realize that the vast amount of of bacteria that we carry in our guts which can be up to two kilos if you’re a tall person um that there’s a constant dialogue going on through the vagus nerve and uh the the bacteria that we do have or the flora that we have in our guts is determined also by what we eat and that flora is in permanent dialogue with our brains and therefore this is why people, for instance, might crave the wrong types of food because they’ve already cultivated the bacteria that want that food, the bacteria that want sugar or the bacteria that want bad fats and quick fixes and all the rest of it. And so actually understanding that you want the right messages going up and down between your brain and your body and your gut and your adrenals is so, so important. It really is. There’s a documentary that just came out on Netflix that talks about your gut health and it’s got some really great animations. And I think that’s a really great little documentary for people. What’s the name of it in case someone who’s listening would like to. Remember, I would have to look it up. I’m like drawing a complete blank, but is literally it just released. So if you go to. OK, so they they can look on new releases in Netflix and and find that. So documentary. I believe it’s actually a UK documentary and experts from the UK and Ireland who were actually in the documentary. Oh, no, I’m sorry, the girl. who’s in it. She’s a German, I think a physician, but she’s really, really interesting and explains things so well. I just think that’s like something very fundamental that anybody can watch with their kids even. And it’s like an hour and 20 minutes. It’s not super long. So it’s like watching a movie. Yeah. So there was a German physician that wrote a book. on the gut it may be accessible to the general public maybe it’s the same person I can’t think of her name right now but I know who you mean so uh just briefly I wanted to go back to the topic of food because obviously it’s so important and I wanted to mention uh a little known fact and that is the the there’s a canadian uh psychiatrist called abram hofer And he actually wrote in 1975, a paper for the Canadian physicians journal in which he discussed all of the research that he had done into his psychiatric patients and their responses to, uh, to basically poor food. And this is in 1975. So 50 years ago, nearly he was saying. the quality of our food has declined and this is the results we’re seeing and he made the emphasis on showing how the poor food choices and also sometimes prior dispositions meant that people would be very low on certain B vitamins like B3, B6, B12 and folate. And there was one, they put together over 1000 patients that he and his colleagues in Canada had looked at and recorded their reactions. um in which uh over 1000 patients were relieved of anxiety tension and depression when refined carbohydrates were removed from their diets it was as simple as that so all of the fast food and the refined carbohydrates have such a an impact and we really do need to think about the wholesome fresh foods and whole foods, you know, buying whole vegetables and making our foods, even if we are busy moms and busy grandmothers or whatever we’re doing, making our own food from the original ingredients is so important. Yeah, yeah, here’s the other thing I really want to drill him to just because something says it’s healthy does not mean it’s healthy. Even these. Healthy protein bars and protein shakes they have a lot. And so we, so we also have a read food label guide how to read food labels and so that’s like a really great start. And my daughter actually turned me on an app and maybe you already know it. It’s called. And you can take it to the store and scan your ingredients and learn what’s in them and. So, basically, the most amount of ingredients are listed 1st, and it declines as the list goes on. But basically, if you eat food that has less than 5 ingredients, it’s going to be healthier for you. But yes, eating fresh and I like, it’s so fun to grow your own food. I can’t even tell you how maybe that’s nerdy of me, but I like to take my food scraps and try to grow food from them. It’s really fun. I even have a hydroponic seed system and some growing tomatoes and cucumbers, and then transplanting them out into a little pot. Yeah, but I mean, like, just activities are so much fun. They’re family activities. It also is mindful. It’s a great way to schedule in time for yourself during the day. But it’s eating healthy food, like you just said, fresh food. It’s best to buy local if you can. And I know some of these markets that we have nowadays are all, you know, with their expensive designer products or whatever, and they charge a lot of money. But if you find your local farmers market, you can find some good deals on some fresh food and, you know, it may be a drive out into the country. But there you go again, another mindful activity, a family drive out in the country to the farm. Sunshine, fresh air, greenery, watching animals, interacting with animals and environment. You know, like learning where your produce comes from. You know, are they responsible doing responsible farming practices? Like it’s connections with those people. So maybe you can end up even doing a trade with them, trading this for their vegetables or whatever. Like it’s a way to connect and, you know, make new friends. Yeah, that’s wonderful. So I want to thank you very much for presenting this wonderful guide, which is going to help a lot of people mull through and, and improve their well being by having the information at hand that’s been put together by expert contributors. So that’s wonderful. So I thank you very much. Thank you for having me. It was my pleasure to talk about it and hopefully it will help change someone’s life. That’s all we want is just to help people. We have no other motivation than to make people healthier. The same with us at the World Council for Health. We have the same ethical values. Thank you so much. Thanks. Well, thank you, Francesca and Cristina for that very interesting, informative and important conversation. And before we wrap up today’s show, I’m just going to share my screen with you quick to go over a couple of things that was discussed just now, especially if you’re just joining us. There is a link to this new brain and mental health guide in the comments in most of the places that we’re live streaming right now. And I will also add that to the website so that you can come back and find it if you need to. But it is easy to find these things on FLCCC’s website. You just go to the resources tab here. And when you click on that, there’ll be some options. And one of them is their guides. So the guide is available here, and it’s right here, but there’s a lot of background here about the guide, the impact of mental health, the importance of brain health, the gut-brain connection, which Francesca and Christina discussed quite a bit. So be sure to check that out on FLCCC’s website. And I believe that this is the documentary that was mentioned, the new one on Netflix. It’s called Hack Your Health, The Secrets of Your Gut. And that was a great guide that Christina also pointed out that I hadn’t seen myself yet on FLCCC’s website, how to read food labels, learn top tips and tricks to become a label detective. So you can find that on their website as well. And here is that mobile phone app that was recommended as well. So you can scan product labels. Looks like it deciphers product labels and analyzes the health impact of food. food products and cosmetics um so that’s a great thing to keep with you if you have a smartphone while you are grocery shopping um so thank you everyone for tuning in and watching us today um hopefully you learned a few things and you’ll visit those great resources from the fl triple c um and hopefully we will see you again same time same place next week so everybody have a wonderful week and thanks for joining us bye
