He graduated from the University of Wisconsin Medical School in 1974 and was elected to the “Phi Beta Kappa” of medical schools, the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honors Medical Fraternity for very high academic achievement. He is board certified in pediatrics and has completed a fellowship in Infectious Diseases at the University of California in San Diego, which included research in developing new medicines to fight viral disease.

He is an expert in Functional Medicine, Chelation, Allergy Elimination, European Biological Medicine, Neural Therapy, Longevity/Aging Medicine, Enderlein Therapy, Insulin Potentiated Therapy, and more. With this training, he co-founded LifeWorks Wellness Center in 1997, one of the largest alternative medical clinics in the U.S. This wellness center combines more cutting-edge alternative therapies and modalities under the same roof than almost any other alternative clinic in the country. In 2000, he founded BodyHealth, a nutrition company which offers a unique range of dietary supplements to the public and practitioners. He is also currently on the board of Home Health Works, an agency which offers in-home care and which was founded by Dr. Minkoff's wife, Sue Minkoff R.N. In this episode, Dr. David Minkoff dives into oral healthcare and what you need to know about bone density if you have ever had a wisdom tooth extraction.

If you're looking for a science-based biological dentist, Dr. Minkoff reveals what kind of questions you should ask before becoming a new patient.

Normal bone density on a CT scan is zero. If there's a hole, it starts going into minus levels of bone.  The body will put in biotoxins when there's an open hole, and you get infections there.  The wisdom teeth will also affect the brain. So you'll want to make sure there are no infections.  [18:30] Did You Know That 100% of Root Canals Are Infected?  A tooth is an organ; each tooth is like a lung, brain, or heart.  The pulp of the tooth is where the nerves are.  If the cavity breaks through the enamel and gets into the pulp, the nerve gets inflamed because there's an infection in there that hurts.  Not many people will put up with a toothache that's bad for too long.  A root canal will kill the nerve and destroy the blood supply. Then, they put a metal post in the mouth. However, the infection is still there, and now you have a dead tooth.  100% of root canals are infected.  [24:20] Looking For A New Dentist? These Are The Things You Need To Know Ask your dentist if they are a member of IAOMT.  Learn more about IAOMT here: https://iaomt.org/ Also, ask if your dentist does root canals. If they do, you don't want them as your dentist. If your dentist isn't a believer, then why would you see them for your care?  [35:00] Signaling Mechanisms: Understanding Satiety, Hunger, and Cravings  The body is so inundated with biological toxins from the air, water, and food. The normal signaling mechanisms of the body about satiety, hunger, and craving are all off.  When you start fasting, you will see normal regulation come back in.  Most people won't put up with being hungry for 24 hours.  If you end up fasting, good stuff will look good and bad stuff will look bad.  100% of every patient Dr. Minkoff sees in his clinic has a toxic gut.  [38:15] Amino Acid Metabolism: Whey Protein vs. Meat and Eggs  Most people are amino acid deficient.  In whey protein, the percentage of nitrogen is about 16%. If you had 100 grams of whey protein, 16 grams is measurable nitrogen.  When the amino acid enters the cell, it can be made into a protein.  Whey protein is inefficient. However, meat and fish are about 33% net nitrogen utilized.  Eggs are 48% net nitrogen utilized. [54:35] What PerfectAminos Can Do For Your Gut Health and Muscle Building   Your doctor is unlikely to know anything about amino acids.  There has never been any significant reaction or allergy to Dr. Minkoff's products. If you have gut problems, you will see improvements with PerfectAminos. Get PerfectAmino: Visit https://affiliates.bodyhealth.com/1538.htm To get Perfect Aminos supplements.

Getting older doesn't have to mean slowing down. In fact, if we’re using the right healthcare, there’s no reason we can’t do everything we did at 25, at 75.  So, what does the ‘right’ healthcare look like, and how does it differ from the more traditional routes championed for years by big pharma and insurance companies?  Are preventative measures ever likely to go mainstream? In the event they don’t, how can we continue to access the kind of healthcare that promotes and maintains our vitality for years to come? In this episode, co-founder of LifeWorks Wellness Center, Dr. David Minkoff shares how to stay active at any age.    Three Takeaways  What’s stopping more people from exploring proactive healthcare: We’ve been indoctrinated to believe that anything not paid for by insurance companies isn’t necessary, but that couldn’t be more wrong. We have to be willing to prioritize our health and invest in ourselves.  Why a shift towards proactive healthcare may already be on the horizon: As more people awaken to the reality that prevention is better than a cure, it should come as no surprise that vitamins are a multi-billion dollar industry. In fact, it’s become so lucrative that big pharma is buying up vitamin companies.  Why it’s always a good idea to meet with health specialists: Even when we think we’re in peak health, the reality is we all have blind spots. A specialist can diagnose issues before they come to the surface, allowing us to prevent, rather than cure, our ailments. Guest Bio-  Dr. David Minkoff is an alternative healthcare expert, author, and co-founder of the LifeWorks Wellness Center. After attending a 1992 lecture by Dr. Jeffrey Bland with his wife Sue, a Registered Nurse, Dr. Minkoff had a eureka moment and hasn’t looked back. Since setting up LifeWorks alongside Sue in 1997, he has gained expertise in a range of disciplines including, among others, Biological medicine, integrative oncology, anti-aging medicine, hormone replacement therapy, and optimum nutrition. Dr. Minkoff is also the co-founder of BodyHealth.com, author of The Search for the Perfect Protein, and has completed 43 Ironman Triathlons.  To find out more, go to:https://www.drminkoff.com/ https://www.lifeworkswellnesscenter.com/ https://bodyhealth.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-david-minkoff https://www.amazon.com/Dr.-David-Minkoff/e/B07RWR7G6N%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share

Welcome back to the podcast! In this episode, Chantel got to speak with Dr. David Minkoff!  Graduate of the University of Wisconsin Medical School in 1974, he went on to complete both a Pediatric Residency and a Fellowship in Infectious Disease at the University of California at San Diego.   He worked at the University of California and Children’s Hospitals in San Diego as an attending physician in infectious disease while conducting original research on Ribaviron, a broad spectrum anti-viral agent to fight disease. He also co-directed a neo-natal intensive care unit and worked in emergency medicine.   In 1992, Dr. Minkoff’s wife Sue, a Registered Nurse, became interested in nutrition and health and began to go to lectures from some of the experts in the field. At the time, Dr. Minkoff was pretty fixed in his view of traditional medicine and it took a lot of convincing to get him to come to one of these lectures. After hearing Dr. Jeffrey Bland speak, Dr. Minkoff had a eureka moment and began pursuing the alternative field with a vengeance.   Based on this new knowledge Dr. Minkoff and his wife set up a small clinic in 1997 to help some friends with their medical problems. What began as an experiment blossomed into Lifeworks Wellness Center, one of the most successful clinics for complementary medicine in the United States.    In the process, he gained expertise in Biological medicine, integrative oncology, heavy metal detoxification, anti-aging medicine, hormone replacement therapy, functional medicine, energy medicine, neural and prolotherapy, homeopathy, and optimum nutrition.

You are responsible for your own condition, that 98%, but 100%. So you see people from all levels of society, from all areas of the world, and some people decide that I can make my life because I decided to do it. Some people decide that I'm a victim, and everyone else is responsible for my condition. If you want to be happy, the second one doesn't work. You know, hard work and keeping your moral code in play, surrounding yourself with good people, and having a purpose for your life, whatever it is. But it ought to involve helping someone else or somebody else. If you can live toward that end, you can enjoy the time that you have here and feel like for whatever purpose you were put here, that you did it. I think that the image I always have for myself, is I've been informed that at 120 years old, I have one hour to go and I am able to look back and reflect on my life. Did I do what I did and did I accomplish what I set out to do? Also, were other people glad that I was here and I did it. If you can answer those questions, there is a piece for yourself, no matter what's coming, you're going to be okay. If you're at that and you can assess that right now, then you create your own tomorrow so that you can decide. You can decide if I could be a little bit better here, I could have done that, or I've always wanted to do that. Tomorrow, you can decide to do that.

That's the connection of fire with the earth. It is regenerative, it is restorative and Mother Nature is built in. She's an amazing engineer. Like she's gonna kick our butts every single time if we think we can best Mother Nature. We are whistling dixie because we are unconnected with the truth of the fact that this earth and it is way more powerful than us. So it's being connected with what is. Here's a story I would illustrate it with from years ago. I attended a sheriff's academy in Ames, Iowa. I applied and I took it and it was fascinating Scott because what do you think I knew about being a sheriff? Most American's don't know what the role of Sheriff is. 19:30 - Marketing is communication. Marketing is connecting. It's finding out who are your people, where are they at? How do they want to be communicated with, what is their rhythm? What's their style? What's their desire? What do they think they want? What do they know they need? That's the engagement of connection and when it hits, Whoa baby, it's magic! Yeah, like a full blast, let's go. But when it's not connected, when you are struggling, when you're forcing jokes, when you haven't honed your craft, I also delineate very much between public speaking and professional speaking. There's a huge difference. 30:00 - Right now week to week, things are changing, it actually feels like day-to-day. You can have this great client who has been abused, who already has 15 flaming plates spinning in the air. They're already thinking, damn, I just need another damn thing. So how does she react, how do we help her? People like you and people like me, how do we coach? How do we lead? How do we teach so people can effectively lead their own lives in perpetual adaptation? Look, the world hasn't stopped. Oh, clearly, it has changed in a very remarkable and very, very condensed manner. This could have...

Many people know that protein is essential for optimum health, but most assume they are consuming enough from food.   So why the need for an amino acid supplement?   The simple answer is that – yes, you do get good quality from foods such as eggs, meat, fish and nuts but much of the protein in food is not converted into body protein – it just makes waste that the body has to get rid of plus extra calories.   Almost everyone is protein deficient without realizing it – it plays out as leaky gut, poor skin health, a nagging injury that won't heal in the athlete, brittle bones in  menopausal women, or constant colds in children.   Protein deficiency is very often something you are aware of, but you just can't identify and neither does your doctor. Not getting enough protein may mean low hormones, or a low immune system and risk of disease or cancer. So what's the solution?   Source is everything!!! PerfectAmino is an amino acid supplement that is 99% utilized by the body to make protein. No other form of protein comes close!   Our guest Dr. David Minkoff is an American physician and best selling author. He is the co-founder and medical director of LifeWorks Wellness Center and a regular speaker at numerous conferences on health, wellness, Lyme disease, ozone therapy, alternative cancer treatment, and autoimmune diseases.   In 2019 Dr. David Minkoff wrote The Search for the Perfect Protein  In this book Dr. Minkoff provides a new appreciation and understanding of these vital components of life and wellness. He examines the healthful or harmful effects of the foods you eat regularly. And he explores the importance of clean proteins in your diet while offering indispensable guidance on where to find them.   To get 10% off your order use DIVINE10 https://affiliates.bodyhealth.com/1052.htm

Dr. Minkoff is passionate about fitness and is a 41-time Ironman finisher. Dr. Minkoff, Thank you for joining me today on our podcast. 1. The ongoing debate between BCAA vs EAA has been going on for years. Being that you are an authority on this topic can you please clear up the confusion to our audience why EAA are superior? 2. We work with many athletes in our office and many of them have been using BCAA, how have people been so misinformed as to the lack of effectiveness of BCAA compared to EAA? 3. In our facility we have protocols put in place for sports performance, vitality and longevity utilizing various technologies. We also highly recommend nutritional support to make these protocols more effective. In regards to Longevity, how would EAA benefit our population that is looking to live not only a longer but more active life? 4. Through my 20 years in practice as a Chiropractic Physician and Sports Recovery Specialist I have have focussed on getting my patients and clients better faster with the use of various movement based therapies and technologies such as lasers, hyperbaric chambers, pemf devices, and nutrition. How do EAA play a role with healing muscular injuries and will they aid in the effectiveness in recovery from other injuries such as bone and even intervertebral disc injuries such as disc herniations? 5. We work with many competitive athletes and a common question is what to eat before their morning training session. How would an athlete utilize EAA for their morning training session? 6. I have been using your EAA for several years now and not only have I noticed significant recovery from training session but also increase energy through my training sessions which can go for 2+ hours when I am cycling. How can endurance athlete incorporate EAA into their fueling strategy when competing in cycling, marathon training and triathlon? 7. in regards to weight loss, we promote fat adaptive strategies to our nutrition coaching clients. How do EAA benefit a person looking to lose body fat and retain lean body mass? 8. Besides EAA, what other supplements would you recommend for some one trying to recovery faster from injury? Improve athletic performance? Dr. Minkoff's website: https://www.bodyhealth.com/

Everybody in the health world talks about the importance of protein, but it still remains grossly misunderstood. What is amino acid utilization, and what does it mean for us? What are the best foods for amino acid utilization? What happens when you don't get enough essential amino acids as it relates to protein turnover, healing, anabolism effect with training? On this episode, I’m joined by legendary physician, author and founder of LifeWorks Medical Center, BodyHealth, and PerfectAmino, Dr. David Minkoff, who shares the truth about protein we all should know about.   We need healthy food and supplements so we can change the trend of society and the planet to save us from extinction. -Dr. David Minkoff   Three Takeaways Different foods have different levels of amino acids and usability. Whole eggs are the best while whey and soy are really low in amino acids, and don’t move the needle. When you eat whey protein, the body can’t use the amino acid so it takes off the nitrogen you’re just left with a carb. You can’t make protein out of 3 amino acids, you need 8. At the start of the show, Dr. David shared how he got started in alternative healthcare, and how his wife’s experience with mercury toxicity led him down that path. Next, we talked about whether autoimmune disorders are being caused by toxic particulates, and why all that has a lot to do with gut health and the intestines. We talked about proteins, amino acid utilization, and the best sources of protein.   We also discussed; Why all proteins aren’t created equal Gluconeogenesis Best diet for endurance athletes The body’s ability to utilize the protein it digests isn’t just about eating any protein, it’s about eating the right kind of protein. Protein is made up of smaller units called amino acids, and in order to get the full benefit of utilization, you have to remember that not all amino acids are created equal. One gram of protein in one food isn’t the same as a gram in another, and you have to be extremely discerning about the protein you choose, because it determines how your body recovers, and how the amino acids reassemble. If you’re an athlete, a bodybuilder this is incredibly important. Remember, casein, collagen, egg whites, and BCAAs are not good enough proteins to perform the necessary functions and you can never go wrong with whole eggs. Guest Bio- Dr. Minkoff is a 42-time full-Ironman triathlete, having qualified and competed at the Kona World Championships 8 times. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin Medical School in 1974 and was elected to the “Phi Beta Kappa” of medical schools, the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honors Medical Fraternity for very high academic achievement. He then worked as an attending physician in infectious disease, co-directed a neo-natal intensive care unit and worked in emergency medicine until 1995. In 1997, Dr. Minkoff’s interest in alternative and complimentary medicine led him to open LifeWorks Wellness Center, which as become one of the largest alternative medical clinics in the US.

In today's podcast episode, we unpack all things amino acids... "...Five months after beginning the amino acids, I achieved a personal best at Ironman Canada, in Penticton B.C. In my new and improved physical state, I began to wonder if my vegetarian, protein- deficient diet was the reason why the anti-cancer enzymes scorched my stomach. Could it be that the mucous lining in my stomach was inadequate, and that had also held back the healing of my hamstring? I very badly wanted to find out, so I decided to try the enzymes again. I followed the full protocol, twelve tablets, six times per day for three consecutive days. I had no adverse reactions, and my stomach was fine. I learned that because my overall body protein levels had normalized, the mucous layer in my stomach was better able to handle the enzymes. What a revelation! I thought, could this also be a key problem with my patients and their various conditions? " Thus begins the new book "The Search For The Perfect Protein", by 42 time Ironman triathlete Dr. David Minkoff. Dr. Minkoff graduated from the University of Wisconsin Medical School in 1974 and was elected to the “Phi Beta Kappa” of medical schools, the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honors Medical Fraternity for very high academic achievement. He then completed both a Pediatric Residency and Fellowship in Infectious Disease at the University of California at San Diego. He worked at the University of California and Children's Hospitals in San Diego as an attending physician in infectious disease while conducting original research on Ribaviron, a broad spectrum anti-viral agent to fight disease. He also co-directed a neo-natal intensive care unit and worked in emergency medicine. In 1995, his wife became ill, and her physicians couldn't find what was wrong. Not accepting their "no hope" conclusion, Dr. Minkoff went on a search to help her that led him out of emergency medicine into complementary and alternative medicine to find the answers. In the process he gained expertise in Biological medicine, heavy metal detoxification, anti-aging medicine, hormone replacement therapy, functional medicine, energy medicine, neural and prolotherapy, homeopathy and optimum nutrition. He studied under the masters in each of these disciplines until he became an expert in his own right. The answers he found were soon in demand when others learned of his wife’s return to good health. In response to this, he and his wife, Sue Minkoff RN established Lifeworks Wellness Center in 1997 and it quickly became one of the most comprehensive complementary and alternative medicine clinics in the U.S. The demand for the products and protocols he discovered became a catalyst for founding BodyHealth.Com, a nutrition company that now manufactures and distributes these cutting-edge solutions for the many health problems today. Dr. Minkoff writes two free online newsletters, “The Optimum Health Report” and ”The BodyHealth Fitness Newsletter”, to help others learn about optimum health and fitness. In my conversation with Dr. Minkoff, you'll learn... -Dr. Minkoff's history with amino acids and why he wrote his new book... The science behind amino acids and protein wasn't keeping up with the commercial PR and marketing Strained a hamstring while running an Ironman triathlon in 1982 Tried everything possible to no avail Tried amino acids and felt no pain, no discomfort Max heart rate rose by 12 bpm Muscle and bone tissue filled in A patient who was familiar with natural cancer treatment recommended a pancreatic enzyme treatment; had very negative results He then supplemented it with essential amino acids and was perfectly fine Saw potential cure for other problems patients may be having (that are not cancer) He realized that if it was effective for him, it would be beneficial for others He now sees amino acids as an essential element of a workout and proper recovery Vegans and vegetarians are notoriously deficient in aminos, B12, Iron and other nutrients Highly recommend an Amino supplement -About CHYMO, the thyroid and its interaction with amino acids... Chymotrypsin: an enzyme made in the pancreas that is necessary to digest food Actin: the main protein in muscle; Contains 5800 different amino acids in one chain of the muscle fiber Must be broken down into individual amino acids in order for the intestine to absorb it Vicious cycle: amino acids not enough to make chymotrypsin; can't digest protein properly; amino acids can't get into the bloodstream Many people are iodine deficient Also low in tyrosine (made from the essential amino acid phenylalanine) These are common issues -The link between amino acids/proteins and the gut and digestion... The inner lining of the intestine is one cell thick Leaky barrier membranes: your body gets exposed to foreign proteins 70-80% of your immune system is behind the membrane barrier  (Peyer's patches, gut associated lymphoid tissue) Inner lining of the gut has a high turnover (every 3-5 days) due to the exposure, wear and tear, etc. Leakage occurs when these membranes are not replaced Lack of amino acids slows the turnover rate (10-12 days) Endurance training compromises the immune system due to the pounding on the body -How amino acids are used by riders in the Tour de France bike race... Podcast:  w/ Dr. Jeff Spencer Dr. Spencer is a former Olympic biker who worked for the U.S. team during the Lance Armstrong era Minkoff gave Spencer amino acids to give to the riders during one of the races: After 21 days, athletes are broken down, even with optimal nutrition, medical care, etc. Athletes who used amino acids didn't break down; performance improved Athletes and coaches overwork and don't allow adequate recovery time; results in a broken immune system -Why not derive amino acids from whey protein, spirulina and other sources?... The amount of protein listed on the package doesn't translate to amounts in other sources (fish, steak, spirulina, etc.) Medication to stop stomach acid stops protein digestion Pepsin enzyme which digests protein requires a very acid stomach Cells have two pathways with which to deal with the amino acids: Anabolic: Turns amino acids into the proteins the cell is responsible for (hair, liver, muscle etc.) Catabolic: Nitrogen becomes a waste product; chain leftover looks like a carbohydrate Ratio of essential amino acids in Kion Aminos is very specific; the body will use amino acids into making protein Spirulina is good for some things; amino acids is not one of them Adding non-essential amino acids decreases the efficacy of the product Collagen has 50% non-essential amino acids -The chemical configurations of amino acids... The body can only use the "left-handed" configuration (L form) Most amino acid forms have very low amino acid utilization because they include the R form -How amino acids work with fasting and/or ketosis... You can take amino acids and not spike blood glucose levels Excessive proteins will kick you out of fasting is a myth Amino acids work very well for fasting in an anabolic state 10 g of amino acids is 4 calories (less than a stick of gum) -How safe amino acids are for children... -And much more...
