5:04 The healthiest foods
The healthiest food on Earth isn’t just a food; it teaches the immune system, trains the gut microbiome, and even adapts to your environment. Nothing else comes close. It contains immune cells, hormones, and even stem cells.
Breast milk is the healthiest food on Earth, the best food for gut health, and one of the best foods for the immune system. Half of the mother’s immune system is given to the infant through breast milk. If you were breastfed, you have a much stronger immune system and a decreased risk of autoimmune disease and allergies.
Adults can take colostrum to strengthen the immune system and support gut microbiome health. Colostrum supports the gut barrier and protects against leaky gut.
Infant formula is an ultra-processed food for babies and is the first ultra-processed food a child is exposed to. It provides the baby with calories without considering their quality.
RFK and HHS have been looking into heavy metals in baby food. Some of the ingredients in baby formulas are like sponges for heavy metals, which can have devastating health consequences for babies. Infant formulas typically contain industrial seed oils, refined sugars, synthetic vitamins, and processed protein.
Fermented dairy, such as kefir, yogurt, and raw milk cheese, is the best alternative to breast milk and one of the healthiest foods you can eat as an adult. The protein in fermented dairy is broken down, so it’s very easy to digest. It’s a potent immunity booster that can help prevent an overactive immune system and contains vital nutrients such as vitamin K2, calcium, vitamins B2 and B12, folate, and biotin.
Fermented dairy is one of the best probiotic foods, helping to reseed the gut and create a better environment in your gut microbiome. It also increases T-reg cells to prevent immune overreaction.

| 0:04.7 | If you can guess what it is, please comment down below. |
| 0:07.2 | I'm very curious what you think this is. |
| 0:09.1 | There is a food on this planet that does something that no supplement, no superfood |
| 0:13.1 | can come even close to matching and what this thing can do. |
| 0:17.6 | And it doesn't just feed the person. |
| 0:19.9 | It teaches the immune system. It has the |
| 0:22.9 | ability to train your gut microbiome. And it actually has the ability to adapt and change depending on |
| 0:29.3 | what's happening in your environment. Nothing else we eat even comes close to this. It contains |
| 0:36.0 | immune cells, hormones that have the ability to adapt |
| 0:40.1 | from morning to night. It also contains stem cells, which is next level. So the number one |
| 0:48.4 | healthiest food on planet Earth is human breast milk. And this is why it's so vital that a new mother chooses breast milk |
| 0:56.6 | over infant formula. Now, I know a lot of you watching are not a baby, but I am going to share |
| 1:02.8 | with you the next best food to consume if you're an adult. And so this video is going to apply |
| 1:09.4 | to your health. But I needed to give you a foundation |
| 1:12.1 | on the importance of breast milk and what it actually does to our bodies if you were fortunate |
| 1:17.6 | enough to have breast milk when you're a baby. Because when I did a deep dive into this topic, |
| 1:22.9 | I was just blown away at what actually breast milk is. It is a super immune builder. Half of the |
| 1:31.2 | mother's immune system called the innate immune system is given to that infant, partially through |
| 1:37.1 | breast milk. I mean, just think about that for a second. You have the innate immune system that you're |
| 1:42.5 | born with or your mother gives you. And then you have over here |
| 1:44.9 | the acquired immune system that you have to develop through getting sick and then having your |
