Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now here's a highlight from coast to coast AM on iHeartRadio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
I know you, as you know from the very first
time I met you is you were the doctor that
delivered my youngest son, Christopher, who is sixteen now. But
since those days, I don't know that you're doing a
lot of baby delivering now because you discovered something about
the women that you were treating that had babies. That's
where I kind of know this story begins. Am I am?

(00:26):
I kind of on the right track.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
Yeah, So I stopped delivering babies in twenty fifteen and
then stopped doing I'm obgin So I stopped doing hysterectomies
in twenty eighteen, and around that time, maybe twenty fourteen,
I started really spending time thinking about how sick the
women were that I was delivering in terms of nutritional deficiencies,

(00:49):
and just finding how many of them were deficient in
fol AID and B twelve and vitamin D and zaying.
And then I started looking at the genetics of how
we use our nutrition to.

Speaker 4 (01:02):
Repair ourselves or rebuild ourselves and to build a zigo,
which is a single cell baby. And so I.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Developed my genetic company back then, and that kind of
took me away from obstetrics, took me away from gynecology,
and then it just transitioned from there.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
And we've been going NonStop to the point now where
you have a book. By the way, I should say
all of doctor Courtney's websites, her book is all linked
up at Coast to Coast am. But the name of
the book is Your Spark is Light. Tell me about
the title and what that book means.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Well, the second half of the title is the quantum
Mechanics of Human creation. So when I started thinking about, Okay,
we come from a stem cell that's going to become
everything in the human body, and we have to have
the right nutrition for that to work. Then I started thinking,
I knew that poor mitochondrial energy production is the cause

(02:01):
of most major disease, so I knew that we had
stem cells. I used to be a speaker for Umbilical
Cord stem Cell Company, so I had a lot of
experience with that, and I started thinking about, Okay, well,
where we're headed in medicine is this mitochondrial energy production thing,
which is basically light signaling, or we're taking information from
light through the food through us and also information about

(02:24):
the angles of the sun about the time of day,
but via angles on the sun, and just kind of
reverse engineered our health through the lens of Okay, well,
if we're getting sicker and sicker, what does it do?

Speaker 4 (02:37):
I go to, how does a baby use its food
to build itself?

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Because it's growing a new body in ten months, and
so that must be programmed in us. That's how the
stem cell work. How do we reverse engineer that? And
where is that initial spark? And at the same time
I also had an forever an interest in where's our
soul come from?

Speaker 4 (02:58):
How does how does our soul entered this vessel?

Speaker 3 (03:03):
And I remember having a conversation with a patient way
back then who gave She gave me a book about
how the soul enters the body when the baby comes out,
when it comes out of the vagina, and I thought, well,
that can't be.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
And so so you're kind.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Of your thesis is the soul is obviously a part
of this whole process the spark, so you say it
all happens in that moment.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Well, in twenty sixteen, it was discovered at Northwestern that
when fertilization happens, there's a calcium, there's a calcium flux
across the cell that happens in waves, and then zinc
explodes out of the cell. And it was discovered they
use a fluorescent dye to tag the zinc and then
they watched the zinc twenty billion zinc ions explode out
of the cell. And so I looked at that and thought, Okay,

(03:52):
well there's a massive explosion out of a cell that
has six hundred thousand mitochondria.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
So when you listen to health gurus.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Talk about mitochondria, they'll tell you, oh, the brain has
the highest density of mitochondria, or the heart has the
highest density of mitochondria. And mitochondria for those who don't know,
are the batteries. The kids learn it is the powerhouse
of the cell. They make this molecule called ATP that
fuels us for all of our enzymes in our body
to work. And so the human egg, the female egg

(04:24):
has six a healthy egg and I'm fearful that a
lot of women don't have healthy eggs. That has six
hundred thousand mitochondria in one cell. That's more than any
cell in the body. So there's some massive energy exchange
happening or going on to jumpstart an adult cell that's
been stuck in what's basically arrested development and reverse it

(04:47):
so that it can reverse age.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
Itself and become.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
A brain, a heart, bone, muscle, everything in a body
in a matter of seconds.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
So it's sort of like if we were to take
the Big Bang theory on how the universe was created
and shrink it down to a person. We kind of
do the same thing when we come into existence. Yes, fut,
that's the first time I've totally explained that. I do
want to say, not as a sidetrack, but I think
this is worth worth talking about. I think I've known

(05:19):
you for what twenty or so years now, and I
have seen I have seen you completely dea age yourself.
And I don't know if you care to share the
type of ailments that you had, but you're a completely different,
healthy human now than when I met you. Not that
you were bad before, but I know I just everything

(05:41):
from even the color of your eyes looks different to me.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
It does.

Speaker 3 (05:46):
My eyes look way lighter and more yellow and green.
So I think around the time that we first met,
I had the solo practice ob in Scotts Sale and
I was doing some months thirty five or forty deliveries
by myself, and I wasn't sleeping. I had my kids

(06:06):
around the same time that you had Christopher, and so
I had two babies, not sleeping.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
I had hashimotos. I was probably.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
Twenty pounds heavier, Fatigue, anxiety. I wouldn't really say depression,
but just.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
I were feeling the pressure of life. For sure. You were.
You were trying to catch up to all of your obligations,
and it seemed like you had the weight of the
world on your shoulders. Not that you weren't intelligent, but
it seemed like it from then to now. I'm not
saying that we're not, you know, twenty years older, but
you look twenty years healthier.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
Yes, yeah, And people always say, well you still have wrinkles.

Speaker 4 (06:50):
Well, yeah, I'm twenty years older, but.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
The shape of the shape of my face has changed,
the shape of my body has changed. I was even
joking with one of my classes this morning that when
I used to gain weight, I would get this big belly,
and now if I gain weight it goes to the
appropriate female places, like my hips and my breasts. It's
just I've totally changed the profile of my hormones by

(07:13):
doing all the things that I teach ketosis, fasting, circadian rhythm,
that kind of stuff. And it's changed. It's changed the
little appearance of my everything. Everything has changed. Most importantly,
my cognition has changed. I'm probably a little slow tonight
because I'm not used to sleeping and then waking up
in the middle of the night.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
You definitely do not sound slow. I want to make
sure that whenever you do that. But what do I
say to you? I say, talk to me like I'm
in third grade. In your third graders were geniuses. So
you were still talking way above, way above my community
college level.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
Oh well, when you get to black holes. My daughter
said something so funny today. I want to share it
with you.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
But when you look at the research on like epilepsy
and ketosis, which I my natural state, what I say
is a natural state of the zygot is ktosis. So
you have this single cell that has one calorie of triglycerides,
and it's performing beta oxidation of fat, or it's burning
its own fat for fuel when it gets its initial spark.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
That's good, right, you want to burn your own fat
for fuel, that's good.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
You want to I try to train people to be
able to exist in ketosis or exist burning their own
fat for fuel and and then rely on.

Speaker 4 (08:21):
Glucose basically for emergency needs.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
But when you look at the research on ketosis and
things like epilepsy, there's some literature that suggests that those
children get about a thirty and maybe more percent improvement
in cognition. And I definitely feel that that has happened
to me so much so I'm just able to connect

(08:44):
dots across different fields of science because that's my forte
so much easier.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Well that's interesting too, brain. Well, yeah, when you changed
your your food in your circadium rhythm, not that you
weren't smart, but do you feel like the answers of
where the soul and the sparks started? Do you think
like those answers come clearer?

Speaker 4 (09:07):
The downloads come faster.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
The downloads tell me what is the download faster? Where
the download coming from?

Speaker 3 (09:15):
Pattern recognition in my life, pattern reckon just things that
I've studied. The pattern recognition. I'll hear something once and
you don't have to tell me again. And I remember,
like I told my parents the date of Christopher's I
remember the date of Christopher's birthday this morning, which is
which's sun? I don't think a lot of people can
remember specific dates of specific deliveries.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Well, actually, when I se you actually wrote back and like, oh, yeah,
I remember. I remember it was the corner room of
this hospital. You told me exactly what time it was,
what the sun was doing, all of that.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Yeah, I have a very visual memory like that.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
But also you know we've we've talked before about you
talk to me about following the me music to have certain.

Speaker 4 (10:03):
I don't know, intellectual experiences. And I knew when I
was when I.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
Think back to the volume of things that you have
to study in medical school and retain. People often equate
it to, you know, putting your mouth in front of
a fire hydrant and just trying to get as much
water in your mouth as you can.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
And I think back to the way I learned. It
was very spatial.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
I would use a big piece of paper, like a
giant post it sized piece of paper and colored pencils
and write the information all over the page. And then
when I would take the test, I could visualize the page.

Speaker 4 (10:40):
And the answers would hit me. I would say more
in the gut than the head, and.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
So I could just I could do a medical school
test that would take people two hours. In fifteen minutes,
I would just fly through it because the answer hit
me in the gut. I would write it down and
I knew if I trusted my gut, I would get
it right.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
And so.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
I knew I had some sort of different memory than
other people, but I didn't understand what it was. Well,
now that I've done all this work on my cognition,
I realized I had.

Speaker 4 (11:18):
Number of color synesesia back then.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
But I had with the sleep deprivation and the chronic carbohydrates,
I forgot it.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Do you miss carbs?

Speaker 3 (11:29):
No, I mean I still have carbs. I'm so metabolically
efficient now. And I hiked so much. I had a
pack of nerd. I had a large pack of Nerds
candy tonight. But I'll be back in ketosis by noon
tomorrow when I hike camel Back, which is a mountain
here in Arizona.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
So you do it every day every day at sunrise?
Why at sunrise?

Speaker 4 (11:52):
Because I want the free red light therapy in my eyes.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
How is turned? What do you think of red light
therapy as a as an additional tool to the sun.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
It's just a reverse engineering of the sun. It's free
outside every.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Day, So don't buy a red light spot. Just go outside.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
I think for someone who.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
I think for someone like you who works nights and
works early in the morning and can't get appropriate light outside,
or someone who's in Chicago and is an er nurse
and has their light signaling.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Not correct, or people driving trucks right now because that's
their job.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Yeah, I think there's benefit. There's definitely benefit. But sunlight
is a symphony. I actually bought a spectroscope to teach
my I just started a light class today, teaching people
this stuff for a month, and I bought a spectroscope,
which is a little screen where it shows you the
different wavelengths of light by color in your surroundings, just

(12:53):
so I could. I wish this was visual, but I
can turn it on in front of a computer and
show you how much light is in the blue light
is in the computer screen, and blue light basically tells
your brain to wake up, get up, be energized, versus
if you go outside, how much red light is outside
and it's free.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
It's free.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
So when people actually see on a screen the different
I call it a long island iced tea.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
And you want your.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
Long, long island iced tea. To have a lot of
iced tea and not a lot of alcohol. And when
you steer in front of a computer screen, when you
steer into a computer screen, it's heavy on the alcohol
and not so much the tea.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
So it's going to hit you hard at the wrong
time of day.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
So when you go outside in the sunrise and face east,
you are getting natural free red light therapy no matter
where you are. It makes it through the atmosphere and
the clouds, no matter.

Speaker 4 (13:45):
Where you are.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
What about sunset sunlight is that important as well?

Speaker 4 (13:50):
Yeah, so I call that one the yellow brick road.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
So when you face the sunset, as the sun descends
in the sky, the ultraviolet light and the bright blue
light goes away, and it sends a signal to you
almost have like a switch in your brain in your
pineal gland. Sends a signal for you to make your
melatonin rise. So you have this basal level of melotonin
throughout your body all day and in your paneal gland.

(14:16):
When you see the sunset and that bright blue light
goes away, you start to turn trip to fan into
melotonin which makes you go to sleep.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
And when you go to sleep, doing all the other
things you're not eating.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
You're relaxed, you're not digesting food. The melatonin helps you.
It's a free radical scavenger. So I call that the
black smoke of the body. It eats up your black
smoke of your body that would cause cancer or rust
you on the inside.
