0:00.0 | So today I want to actually discuss uric acid and how you could detoxify uric acid from |
0:28.4 | your kidneys and from your body. Most people have this idea that uric acid is primarily a waste |
0:34.9 | product only, but it has some other functions that you may not know about. Number one, it |
0:41.9 | can act to stimulate the nervous system, okay, because the chemistry of uric acid is very |
0:47.8 | similar to caffeine, so it's a neural stimulant. It can actually bring up your mental focus. |
0:54.5 | Even though it has oxidative properties, it also has antioxidant properties as well. It |
1:01.2 | can help to neutralize very reactive compounds like something called hydroxyl radical and hydrogen |
1:07.7 | peroxide. It can even keylate iron because excessive iron is very, very harmful in the body. |
1:13.4 | Another function that actually can help your immune system, so it's not all bad. And there's |
1:18.3 | several ways that uric acid can build up in the body. Number one, fruit toast is one. Let's |
1:23.6 | say you consume a lot of chocolate. Also, you can actually increase more protein. And even being |
1:29.2 | on a high carb diet, having pre-diabetes or even diabetes can increase your uric acid levels. |
1:35.0 | But fasting, and this is what I'm going to talk about, fasting at a certain point can spike |
1:40.8 | this uric acid because your body needs this antioxidant. In certain studies, it can increase |
1:47.6 | between 4.1 milligrams per deciliter to 10.7 milligrams per deciliter. So it's going to spike up, |
1:54.2 | but it's like a bell curve and it comes right back down. Now, if you're susceptible to getting |
1:58.8 | uric acid kidney stones or gout, there's a couple of things you need to realize. Maybe you need |
2:07.4 | to increase your vegetables or decrease your animal protein, okay? Because of this, if your |
2:15.7 | urine is slightly too acidic, you'll have a tendency to retain uric acid in the kidney. If you |
2:23.8 | just alkalize the urine a little bit, what happens is this uric acid then can actually come out to |
2:31.0 | the kidneys and you can urinate it out. So when you look at uric acid levels, let's say they're high |
2:35.9 | in the blood if you're doing a test, you really have to understand the whole picture and realize |
