0:00.0	Why do you think over the past 50, 60, 70 years, sleep has continued to decline in terms of the quality?
0:07.0	Well, this is really sad. But I would say that in our society, in this country right now, I would say 80 to 90% is spent more on the side of fight or flight.
0:22.5	When you take a sleeping pill, it's not affecting this area of the nervous system that regulates sleep.
0:28.5	It's a sedative that basically is putting your cerebral cortex into a sedated state.
0:35.7	It's not even producing normal sleep. Sleep is so crucial for healing
0:40.6	for cellular regeneration. If you want to reverse a condition, if you want to reverse hypothyroidism,
0:44.9	if you want to reverse autoimmune disease, if you want to reverse type 2 diabetes, deep sleep
0:50.5	is where it happens. And I do want to mention mention I'm a big fan of nutrition, but turmeric does

1:34.7	danger response, all the hard work might not be paying off as it should. Think of your
1:40.3	cells like a house under renovation. You can bring in the highest quality materials like the best supplements in clean foods,
1:47.8	but if the workers inside the house or are on lockdown because of a storm, nothing gets done.
1:54.3	The materials just pile up unused.
1:57.3	That's what happens when your cells are in CDR.
2:02.8	They can't fully use the good stuff you're giving them. Getting out of CDR, the cell danger response, is the key to unlocking your body's full
2:10.1	potential. When your cells are no longer in protective mode, they can finally use the nutrients,
2:16.5	hormones, and energy you're working so hard to provide.
