Marina Ortega: Your Acne, Fatigue, and Inflammation Might Be a Poop Problem | DSH #1756

You know, I feel like the average person, even the regular pooper can have up to five pounds of poop.

Wow.

I mean, look at Elvis.

I mean, he died with 32 pounds of poop.

Holy crap.

There's an autopsy report.

It'll blow your mind.

32 pounds.

It just goes to show you how much people can really amount to.

That's nuts.

What's the longest time you've seen someone go without pooping?

I was flying a couple of months ago and she walked in and she said,

Marina, I'm pooping 10 days out of the month.

And I said, how long has this been going on?

She goes to spend more than three years.

And she whips out her app and she goes,

I got a little poop back.

You want to see it?

I said, well, you're not joking.

You're just like, no, I literally pooped 10 days out of the entire month.

And I thought, you know, we're dealing with some serious consequences.

Okay, guys, got a special episode for you all.

We got the poop fairy in the building.

Let's go.

Marina, thanks for coming on.

Hey, I'm grateful and blessed to be here.

Thank you so much for having me today.

Absolutely.

I saw your clips on Alex's show.

And I thought it was really interesting stuff.

I don't see too many people opening up about this stuff, you know?

I think more people need to start talking about poop and bathroom habits and that.

I'm here today to really talk to people about that.

Yeah, a lot of shame around the topic.

I myself was constipated for many years.

Oh, really?

Yeah, I was on Accutane, if you know what that is.

I do.

Yeah.

And I think that might have caused it plus my diet combined.

How often are you pooping?

These days, I'd say two to three times a day.

Oh, that's perfect.

Good.

That's what you want.

Oh, yeah, that's terrible.

Yeah, that's bad for you, right?

Yeah.

What happens is once you hold all that poop in, you start absorbing it and then your face

starts purging it, hence the reason why people get breakouts and stuff.

Because I find that they're not pooping sometimes.

Wow.

So they're just so toxic so their face is just purging it out.

So all these kids right now with acne, do you think a lot of that's a poop issue?

Oh, absolutely no question.

Wow.

I never even connected the dots on that.

Well, think about this.

I mean, there's something called this, like, this foreign toilet syndrome, right?

And it's like, I'm not going to poop unless it's in my house.

Like, if it's not my toilet and if it's a foreign toilet, like, I'm not pooping.

Yeah.

So we're finding that many kids, even at school, aren't pooping.

Like, they'll wait eight hours, come home and then finally poop.

And think about that in one week.

That's like eight times five.

Like, these children and these teenagers and actually grown adults.

I just had a conversation with the client and mine's like, four days.

He's like, I will not poop anywhere.

I will only use my toilet and thinking, wow, this is happening to kids as well.

Damn.

You know, maybe this is where constipation's coming from.

Could be.

Yeah, could definitely be.

I mean, did you poop when you were in school?

I didn't like to.

Yeah.

There's definitely days I like held out for sure.

You too, right?

Oh, absolutely.

That's where I think some of my constipation came from.

Yeah.

You know, like a little girl 30 years ago, I mean, nobody talked about poop.

Wow.

Yeah, I used to have to put the thing on whatever that.

See cover.

See cover.

Yeah.

But sometimes they'd be out and then I'd be like, yeah, I'm good.

Yeah.

And then you'd hold it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Wow.

I didn't know that could cause it too.

So that probably contributed to what I was dealing with.

Yeah, you're just holding it and holding it and then you missed that poop window.

Right?

Like everyone has got that poop window.

And if you miss it, it's like dang it.

Yeah.

You don't wonder you get that urge to go again.

Damn.

Yeah.

So when did you start realizing it was a major issue?

The more I'm educating people on it, the more I'm talking about it.

I mean, I've been in the industry talking about poop for the past 30 years.

Wow.

So I've seen it all.

I've heard it all.

And, you know, there's just so many people out there dealing with constipation.

I mean, if you think about America alone, I mean, you know, there's 35 million people, right?

There's 110 million people that are dealing with chronic constipation.

So I feel like this is like this national epidemic of chronic constipation that no one's talking about.

That's way more than I thought.

One in every, well, one in every third.

Holy crap.

I thought I was like a rare thing happening to me.

One out of three is pretty insane.

Yeah, one out of three.

And is that mainly because of diet, you think?

Oh, I think it's a lot of different things, right?

I think it's, I think it's diet.

I think it's the toxins.

I think it's the plastics.

I think it's food, you know, all of that.

So to combination, I think stress as well.

Yeah.

People walking on just so stressed out.

I feel a lot of people use coffee to kind of alleviate it, right?

Yeah.

Is that a good fixer?

Hey, what have you got to do to poop?

Like, look what?

Right?

There's a coffee on the moon here.

Yeah, exactly.

So what have you got to do?

It's like, you got to figure out a way to release that because the more you keep holding it, the more you keep absorbing the same crap over and over.

Right?

So it's like day one, day two, you didn't poop.

Yeah.

And it's just this toxic like a suit, like a septic tank, just a build up building up, right?

Change.

And then what happens?

I mean, you've got to get it out.

How much poop is in the average body?

It just kind of depends on the person.

It depends like if I'm talking to the girl who hasn't pooped in 14 days or the guy who only poops once a week.

It really depends.

What I will say is that your colon is anywhere from five to six feet long, right?

And over time, you know, the poop gets like mold or clay like hard like jammed up.

So if you're dealing with constipation, you can hold a lot.

You know, I feel like the average person, even the regular pooper can hold up to five pounds of poop.

Wow.

I mean, look at Elvis.

I mean, he died with 32 pounds of poop.

Holy crap.

Yeah.

There's an autopsy report.

It'll blow your mind.

32 pounds.

It just goes to show you and how much people can really hold on to.

That is nuts.

Yeah.

What's the longest time you've seen someone go without pooping?

I had a client a couple of months ago and she walked in and she said, Marina, I'm pooping 10 days out of the month.

And I said, how long has it been going on?

She goes, it's been going on for years.

And she goes, she whips out her app and she goes, I got a little poop app.

You want to see it?

I said, wow, you're not joking, are you?

She's like, no, I literally pooped 10 days out of the entire month.

And I thought, wow, you know, we're dealing with some serious constipation issues.

Yeah, that's one out of three days.

Every three days she's on.

Yeah.

Even though she's eating three times a day, I bet.

That's right.

That's pretty crazy.

Holy crap.

Yeah, it's pretty serious out there.

And that's why I want people to talk about it and get comfortable.

Like, let's break this taboo of talking about pooping constipation.

You know, coffee enemas, castoral packs.

I mean, these are all natural remedies to help you go to the bathroom.

Yeah.

Were you able to alleviate her pain?

Oh, absolutely.

Yeah, I saw her two months later and she's like, oh my gosh.

Sort of crying.

She's like, I'm pooping every day now.

Wow.

We see that often.

There's so many great success stories that we do see.

Hmm.

What was effective when it came to her?

Was it the coffee enemas?

Was it the castoral oil?

Did you try everything?

Well, we started off with colonics.

So she started with colonics.

And then she started off with a distilled water enemat at home.

And she did the castoral pack at home.

And she did that nightly, the castoral pack nightly.

And then she did the coffee, not the coffee.

She did distilled water.

When you're constipated, you don't want to do coffee enemas.

What we want to do is use distilled water.

So you could do a distilled water enemat at home

if you're dealing with constipation.

Because if you're backed up and not pooping,

you don't want to do any cleanse at all.

You don't want to do a parasite cleanse.

You don't want to do anything.

Because if you do, you're just stirring everything up, right?

And your colon's like the main portal to like evacuate the poop.

Yeah.

So if you're not pooping, then everything's just going to kind of build up.

You're going to reabsorb the toxins and really feel like crap.

That makes sense.

Yeah.

You mentioned parasite cleanses.

Those are everywhere on social media right now.

Oh, it's like viral.

Yeah.

What do you think about those?

I think they're great.

I mean, I've been doing them for 30 years.

I think that I would say this.

The one biggest thing that I wish everyone would talk about

if you're selling a parasite cleanse or doing a parasite cleanse

is educate yourself on opening up your detox pathways

and drainage pathways.

And what I mean by that is you want to be peeing and pooping

and sweating before you even jump onto that parasite cleanse.

Because if you don't, what's going to happen is your body is going to recirculate, right?

Let's say I'm not pooping like the girl last week.

She goes, uh, I haven't pooped in 10 days and I'm on a parasite cleanse

and I'm thinking, why are you on a parasite cleanse if you're not pooping?

You want to make sure your drainage and detox pathways are completely open, right?

Because if you do a parasite cleanse, you're going to reabsorb everything.

The parasites are going to die off and the gas from it.

You're going to have like a three month hard stomach.

You're going to have flu-like symptoms.

Your body is going to hurt and you're going to feel horrible

because you're just reabsorbing all those parasites that you just killed off.

Because you're not pooping.

You're not, you're not, you're not expelling them, right?

So that's the biggest thing.

I don't care what type of cleanse it is.

It's like you must be pooping if you're going to do a cleanse.

If not, just hold off, save your money.

Don't even waste it.

That's good to know.

Have you ever seen parasites come out of someone when you were treating them?

Oh, yes, all the time.

Wow. Like a tapeworm or?

Oh, yes.

Yeah. When I was detoxing from mold, I would see parasites coming out like this long.

Holy crap.

So you dealt with mold and it was related to parasites?

Oh, yeah.

The majority of the time, if you have mold, like I have black mold in my lungs

and with that, unfortunately, it came parasites, right?

So parasites love mold.

They thrive off a mold.

So the black mold was found in my lungs.

So basically, I decide, you know, I think what more people need to talk about is

if you have black mold, at least in my case, what we discovered was

we need to attack the parasites before the black mold.

And a lot of people aren't doing that.

So if I can kill off all the parasites because think about this moldy terrain that I have

and they're just chomping away at it, well, I've been parasite cleansing for well over a year,

you know, trying to get rid of the parasites and dealing with the black mold.

So as they're chomping away at this black mold and just thriving, I'm killing them.

And as I kill them, they're popping, but they're popping black mold back into my system.

So I can't even treat the black mold yet.

I got a hold off on that, right?

Yeah.

Because you'll go in a vicious cycle trying to treat parasites first, kill everything, then treat the mold.

Because if you're trying to treat the mold first, well, the parasites are just eating and popping

and creating that mold back into your system, the die-off, right?

Yeah.

So it's like, let's get the parasites under control and then we'll focus on the black mold.

And that's exactly what I did.

That's smart, because a lot of people struggle with mold for years, right?

Oh, yes.

Anywhere from two to seven years.

I mean, when we were looking around for treatment for black mold,

the doctors were saying, hey, it's going to be 90,000 cash, 50,000 cash.

And by the way, there's no guarantee.

And I'm like, wow, looking at Steve, my husband, I'm like, this is crazy.

Yeah.

That's not many people can afford that.

Let's be honest.

No.

That is nuts.

Insurance that that doesn't cover anything.

Zero.

Wow.

140,000 from mold.

That doesn't even guarantee you a fix.

Yep.

So that's why we decided to go the alternative route.

You know, I was very blessed and fortunate to own the wellness center.

So I focused on colonics.

I was on sauna, lymphatic drainage.

And then, of course, with our truster gut products, I was doing coffee, several coffee

animals per week, Castro packs nightly, drinking the anti-parasitic tea.

I was doing all of the things.

So we kind of pieced together somewhat, at least, you know, I did a DIY.

Do it yourself, kind of, mold protocol.

And, you know, we tested six months into it and my levels were halfway down.

Wow.

It was unbelievable.

From all natural.

That's incredible.

How did you get the mold?

Was it from your house?

It was actually from a gym, a steam room.

We met with an environmental scientist.

He actually came out because he tested our home, he tested the office.

When you get exposed to mold, you have to figure out where the source is coming from.

If it's in your house, and if you keep going back into your house,

you're going to keep getting exposed to the mold.

So you're getting treatment and it's like, oh, you keep going back into it.

You're going to kill and get rid of the source.

Well, it wasn't in our office.

It wasn't in our home.

It was actually at a gym and a steam room.

And when we were talking to the environmental scientist, he said,

Marina, steam rooms are notorious for black mold.

And I thought, wow, I've never heard of that in my life.

And I will say this.

I love to steam.

I love to be in a steam room.

I'll never step foot in one again.

But that's just me because of the black mold.

I was inhaling that black mold.

It was killing me.

And if you have a steam room, I would say just make sure it's clean.

Look around.

Do you see anything?

So that's what I'll leave it at that.

I say I used to love steam rooms daily.

And then I stopped going in because not even that, but they use tap water.

Yeah.

So you're just inhaling tap water.

That's right.

And who knows what's in that?

Yeah.

So all of those toxins are just being absorbed into your skin.

Yeah.

And even in saunas, there could be mold.

So I was at lifetime and they found black mold under the wooden saunas.

Because if you don't clean it right, you know, it's easy for mold to fester there.

Because people are sweating on the floor and then they're not cleaning it, you know.

So you don't steam at all or you don't do any saunas?

I do saunas, but it has to be clean.

Yeah.

So I bought one for the house.

Yeah.

So do we.

Actually, that helped with my mold protocols.

Well, we did.

Well, I didn't implement saunas ever.

I still do every single morning.

Yeah.

I got a cold punch as well.

That was part of the protocol and getting rid of the mold.

And it worked.

Nice.

And you said the ozone.

Saunas, which is the hockey.

Got it.

Hockey.

I need to try that out.

You do.

When you come out to see us, we'll need to get you in that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Did you do the oxygen chamber too?

Uh, I did the hyperbaric chamber.

The hyperbaric.

Yeah.

That helped out tremendously as well.

Wow.

Yeah.

I've heard a lot of good things about it.

Yeah.

I've done it a few times.

Yeah.

That's cool.

Um, what are your places in Scottsdale?

It is.

It's right in Scottsdale.

Nice.

I'm sure you're busier than ever right now.

We are so busy.

It's a blessing.

It's a great thing.

Yeah.

It's like, let's keep spreading the words.

You know, let's keep helping people, you know, detox and get rid of all these toxins.

Because we're exposed to thousands per day.

You know, and it's like our liver is like the mothership and she can only filter so fast,

right?

The load of toxins.

I mean, your blood circulates throughout your liver every four minutes.

So it's like trying to clean your blood out every four minutes.

So with the coffee animal, what's going on with the coffee?

Why it's so great?

And I was using this throughout my detoxing protocol when I had mold,

because I needed to kind of baby my liver and take care of her.

My liver, liver enzymes got so high because they were pumping out black mold,

that I had to start really taking care of my liver, right?

The liver enzymes were so high.

So with the coffee animal, what's happening is, you know, when you ingest coffee,

right, your nervous system kind of starts waking up,

but when you're putting it in your rectum, the coffee,

and you do want to make sure that it is coffee animal,

not just regular coffee.

There's two different types, right?

So what separates it is that the coffee that we have is USDA organic.

Got it.

And it has palmitic acid in it.

So think of it like super caffeine.

So once you do your coffee animal, it's going to go through your rectum,

kind of shoot through the heptic portal valve,

and then it's going to dilate the bile ducts in your liver.

And it's going to, like, think of it like almost dialysis,

like open everything up and all the sludge,

the bile, think of it like a little dump truck,

it just starts dumping, dumping stuff out.

Wow.

So the longer you can hold your coffee animal,

usually 12 to 15 minutes.

If you can, it's like filtering that blood and cleaning it out.

It's also increasing your glutathion,

which is the master antioxidant by 500 to 700%.

Holy crap.

That's huge.

Yeah, I take it every day.

Yeah, I do too.

Glutathion from symbiotica.

Wow.

I need to try that.

Yeah.

So this is for people that are super healthy,

or that are doing this for preventative,

or that are sick.

I mean, I love coffee animals.

But again, like, you know, you've got to be pooping and peeing

before you start doing any kind of cleanse.

Yeah.

It's super important.

I did, have you heard of Pranovo?

Yes.

Yes.

So I did Pranovo.

I don't know what it was from, but I need to look into this, for sure.

Oh, coffee animals.

You would benefit tremendously from coffee animals.

Yeah.

For sure.

I think it was a mixture of stress, acutane damage,

and just my diet, who knows.

But the livers are definitely under attack.

Yeah.

Cast oil packs would be great for that as well.

So what the benefit is with the cast oil is basically,

once you put cast oil, cast oil first of all,

if you're going to use it, make sure it's USD organic,

that's super important.

The second thing is that it has rhinocytic acid in it.

So think of it as a really fatty compound, like a rich, thick omega-9.

So once you put cast oil on your abdomen or your liver area,

in your case, you do your liver, right?

And then you'll put the cast oil pack on it.

I would suggest putting the heating pad on top of that,

because it's going to activate that,

the rhinocytic acid, the fatty acid,

and it's going to start penetrating into the tissues

and into your lymphatic system.

And it's going to start basically dilating the liver

and the bile ducts to start purging.

Wow.

It's going to help liver, like let's start moving stuff out,

because over time, the liver will get super stagnant, right?

Yeah, cast oil, huh?

It's super powerful.

Is that in any food or is that something you've got to take,

like with the cast?

It's an oil, basically.

Oh, it's an oil.

Yeah, you can use it for beauty, like to grow your hair,

your nails, it's anti-inflammatory, it's anti-microbial.

There's so many benefits when it comes to cast oil.

But I love it for liver detoxification and for constipation.

Got it.

Yep.

Does the shape of the poop and the color matter?

Yeah, absolutely.

It's definitely a report card when it comes to poop for sure.

Yeah.

Where would you say people are grading on that on average?

I would say right now, now more than ever,

we are seeing people that are extremely dehydrated.

So they are pooping very little and they're pooping out

little rabbit turds, like little deer turds.

Yeah.

And it's just like these little balls are coming out of them

and they're not getting much.

They're not taking a full bowel movement.

They're chronically dehydrated.

They'll even say, yeah, I'm not drinking that much water.

Yeah.

So they should be longer like a smooth, like a banana.

Okay.

What about just one huge one?

I think that's great.

Yeah.

I mean, that's great.

That's even eight plus.

I got a vivid memory of my brother when I was a kid.

I walk in the bathroom.

He didn't flush.

That shit took up the whole thing.

I was like, is that normal?

Yeah.

That's ideal.

Good for him.

So you're supposed to have just one long one.

I mean, he has a long one.

That's great.

Wow.

Yeah.

Okay.

So longer the better.

Yeah.

That's good to know.

Yeah, I've definitely had like this, the pellets before.

Yeah.

You see those.

That's a sign like, wow, I need to increase my electrolytes, my minerals, my water and

take, because the more hydrated that you are, the more poop that you're going to see.

Hmm.

Good to know.

I take electrolytes daily, because you live in Arizona.

So you know how it is.

It's really hot these days.

Yeah.

Especially in the summer.

And you'll want to make sure to take minerals as well.

Hmm.

What kind?

Like I love the brand beam.

Okay.

Yeah.

They've got this humic and full look.

There's technology.

It's unbelievable.

I heard of them.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I need to start taking beam.

No, I'll break that down.

But it's as simple as even putting like, you know, if you can't afford electrolytes, which

a lot of people can't.

They're expensive.

You can put like a pinch of Himalayan salt into your water, and that has 72 natural minerals

in it.

Wow.

So, you know, just throw it into your water, chug it, and there you go.

Is it pretty expensive to get treatment at your facility?

No.

I think it's on average.

I think it's very affordable.

I think it, I mean, what's expensive, you know?

It's relative, yeah.

Yeah.

I guess if they went to a Western doctor compared to you, I would say, how would you compare

those pricings?

I would say ours is out of pocket.

We do take HSA and FSA, so, you know, if you have that plan, we do take it.

But like regular insurance is not going to cover it at this time.

It makes sense, right?

We're hoping to see it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It makes sense to whether it wouldn't cover that.

Yeah.

You're healing people.

That's right.

Yeah.

I mean, we're helping stuck all these toxins out of people, right?

We're helping people detox.

We're helping people be healthy again and feeling better.

And again, it's not just for sick people or for detoxing from mold.

It's for longevity.

Some people, we have a lot of professional athletes.

People are focused on anti-aging.

Yeah.

It's just a beautiful thing that we've got going on.

I'm sure this helps with inflammation too.

Oh, yes.

Yeah, I have a gene where I have high inflammation.

So the colon hydrotherapy, the ozone sauna, the lymphatic drainage, all of that is like night

and day game changer.

After I do the entire detox circuit, I'm like, wow.

I got my lymphs manually drained by some massage expert and I felt incredible.

Good.

I couldn't believe what it felt like to be normal.

Well, that's our drainage system, right?

So here's something that's interesting.

We have four to six liters of blood.

Our lymphatic system has doubled that.

So think about that.

So your lymphatic system is like this freeway system, right?

Traveling and dumping out all the toxins and you've got these different lymph nodes where

it's like cleaning it out.

And if you're sitting stagnant all day long, the inflammation will build up.

The toxins will build up.

It's like the lymphatic system, like your heart, it doesn't have a pump.

So you have to manually move and get it going, right?

So any kind of rebounding, walking, exercise, that's like a pump.

It's going to keep everything going and flowing and moving.

If it gets real stagnant and you're sitting around all day, inflammation starts happening,

right?

You're just kind of sitting there with all your toxins, not doing much.

And that's a lot of people, right?

Oh, yes.

Just sitting around all day, nine to five, sitting on a desk.

And then they're like, I feel so inflamed and I'm tired.

You know, my feet hurt and I understand, you know, but I would say, you know, you could

do some free things here and that is, you know, take a walk at some point in the day,

even on a lunch break.

Yeah.

You walk 10,000 steps a day.

I try to.

It's hard these days.

It is.

Yeah.

It can be.

Yeah.

I'm at like 6,000 and I need to step it up, but I just get so ingrained in work.

Yeah.

So do I.

And it's like 80, 20 rules.

Like, give yourself some grace.

You know, I always remind myself, I'm like, just give yourself some grace.

You know, you didn't get the steps in.

You'll do it tomorrow.

Yeah.

We come for it.

Were you a professor before all this?

I was.

Yeah.

What were you teaching?

Business law, ethics.

Wow.

Yeah.

Big change, huh?

From grading papers and essays to like grading and talking about poop and conservation,

coffee enemas.

Well, I'm sure it's helping you run the business at least.

Yeah.

I mean, I'm all about education.

I mean, you know, that's why we created Truster Gut because we wanted to provide more

education around constipation and to help people.

Again, I mean, 110 million Americans are doing constipation.

I'm like, am I the only one talking about poop?

Like, let's get out there and spread the word because it's like people feel like, oh,

we're not supposed to talk about it or it's a bad thing.

And I think we really need to break that norm because people are getting sick.

100%.

You know, they're hanging on to all that poop and toxins and your body gets, you know,

like acidic and the pH balances off.

And with that comes bad things.

Yeah.

That things start happening.

For sure.

So if just a regular person goes to their doctor and they say they're constipated, are

they getting put on laxatives, like what's the typical procedure for that?

Yeah.

And that's another thing.

We see a lot of people that are addicted to laxatives.

We're talking like 20 to 30 to 40 years.

Or like, yeah, I'm still in laxatives.

Marine, it's been like 40 years or 30 years and I think, wow, so they're going to their

doctor.

You're right.

They're going to their doctor.

They're getting the laxatives and now they become addicted.

So it's like, you know, it's one of those things on this big pharma, really care.

I mean, they're making a lot of money because they know that you have to rely on that and

take that every day.

And this is like synthetic.

Right.

These laxatives are synthetic.

They're not great for you at all.

Yeah.

So I imagine it's tough getting off them.

I'd imagine there's withdrawal and you can't eat normally anymore, right?

Well, after a while, it breaks that parastalysis, that wave like motion where I have a poop

window at 7 am.

I'm like, oh, I got to go.

It's because my parastalysis has kicked in, right?

And over time, if you abuse laxatives, you just don't even get that parastalysis feeling

like like a lot of people are like, I don't ever feel like I have to poop.

Hmm.

I'm like, you don't feel like I never feel like I have to poop anymore.

That's crazy.

I'm like, you got a serious problem.

Yeah, because if you don't know, you got to go.

You probably have to go at some point and then they just lose that urge at parastalysis

because they've taken so many laxatives.

Wow.

That's scary.

So they're just going on the toilet randomly.

They don't know if they have to go.

Yeah, if even.

Yeah.

I mean, they're barely going.

That's what I'm saying.

That's a problem.

We've got going on out there.

Yeah.

That's nuts.

Yeah.

Should you be going at the same time every day for the most part?

I mean, I do.

I mean, I don't know.

Everyone's got their own bathroom habits and poop windows, but mine is definitely between

like 6 am and 7 am.

It just is.

You know?

Sometimes a goal throughout the day, obviously, because every time you have a meal, you

want to be pooping, right?

So it kind of depends on when you're eating as well.

Yeah.

What do you think about fasting for like fixing your health issues?

I think fasting is great.

I think elimination is great.

You know, when I was detoxing from mold, I would fast all the way up until about 11 o'clock

and then I would have a fresh squeezed juice because I wanted all those enzymes, right?

My body was so suppressed from the mold.

Like my immune system was just like, doof.

My little army was not where it needed to be because the black mold was taking over.

So I was fasting and then I have a fresh juice.

And then that evening, I would have something warm, like a warm meal.

Got it.

So I was trying to create space and I was trying to eliminate this mold that get it out.

How fast can I get it out of me?

So fasting definitely helped.

Juicing helped.

Changing my diet helped.

Yeah.

What about, there's a big prebiotic wave now.

All these drinks coming out.

Do you think that's legit?

Or do you think that's a fad?

What do you think about that?

I don't know.

I would say, I think it's great, but I don't know.

What is a percentage is what I want to know.

Like what is a percentage of prebiotic that are in these drinks?

Right.

And I have a feeling it's a very, very small percentage and is that really going to make

a difference?

I don't know.

It probably is a low percentage.

You know what I mean?

It sounds great.

Because it's expensive.

I'd imagine to put a lot of those in there.

I would imagine too.

It sounds great.

I'm on board for it.

But at the end of the day, it's like, well, let's really take a look at the ingredients

and is it really a small percentage?

And you're right.

It's expensive.

Yeah.

I used to love kombucha.

And then I was like, wait, they had 20 grams of sugar, like what the hell is up, you

know?

That's a lot of sugar.

Yeah.

Yeah.

We're saying a lot of greenwashing.

We're seeing a lot of price gouging with a lot of the products out there.

And that's one of the reasons why we created trust your gut.

We wanted to create high quality affordable products so it can be like in every household,

right?

It's the product like our cast oil pack.

People are selling it for triple or quadruple them out.

And I'm like, this is crazy.

Their cast oil is organic.

Well, what does organic mean?

Yeah.

You know, and what is the quality?

What is the regulation behind it?

So we were really proud that all of our products are USDA organic.

That was super important.

You need that quality assurance.

Right.

You know, people are like, it's like, this is organic or this is USDA organic, right?

There's a huge difference.

Yeah.

So what is that difference, actually?

USDA organic first, just like organic.

So you and I can make a product today and we can just say it's organic.

We can say it's vegan free.

I mean, it's not regulated.

I mean, we can make it right, you know, in our garage right now and we can just put it

out there on the market.

When it's USDA organic, it's a very long process.

There's a lot of paperwork.

There's a lot of rules.

They come out and do, you know, four to six hours of inspection.

There's a lot of quality assurance that goes along with a lot of paperwork, a lot of

signing off.

It took us well over a year to go through the process, but we're proud of it because I'm

so sick of the greenwashing.

When I say greenwashing, it's like, you and I create a product and we say, oh, it's organic.

What does that mean?

And I don't think people really understand what that means.

I think they think, oh, that's super healthy.

It says it's organic and that's not quite the case.

That's how I used to think.

It says you really got to read everything, right?

You got to see if it's third party tested to see who's backing this, what studies are

done on it.

Yeah, with our coffee.

And I mean, it was important to have it mold tested, you know, a lot of coffee has mold.

So, obviously I dealt with mold, so I'm like, let's third party test it, make sure it's

mold-free.

So, yeah.

Yeah, you'd be surprised how many coffees have mold.

It is alarming.

How that's on the market.

Yeah.

And people aren't educated, I would say.

So I love that you're educating people on all of these topics.

You know, I'm trying to do the same as well.

I think it's just a lack of education, I think that if they knew the difference between

organic and USD organic, they would think differently.

And it's wild because people are selling these organic products like, it's like the price

gouging.

Or I know what it costs to make it.

And I'm like, wow, I mean, we're dealing with the sick culture.

Let's help these people.

Let's make it affordable.

I love that.

People want to be healthy.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I'm really passionate about keeping the price down, making it affordable.

You're smart.

So you got the physical spot, but you also sell all this stuff online, the trust you've

got stuff.

We do.

Nice.

What are the best sellers right now for you?

I would say the Castro Oil Pack is probably one of the best sellers.

The coffee enema kits, both of them are doing very well and are anti-parasitic teas.

Yeah.

Can't wait to try the tea.

I know you're going to love it.

The coffee enema.

So you could just do that at home.

Like, you don't need a doctor to do that for you?

No.

You could do it at home.

Okay.

Yeah.

I've been doing coffee enemas for, I don't know, 25, 30 years.

And again, it's great for your liver.

So I'm excited for you to try it as well as the Castro Oil Pack.

But the coffee enema, you'll do it at home.

I have instructions.

If you go to trust your gut, I'm sorry, if you go to trust your gut.shop, we have an educational

page.

And I'm actually showing you in my bathroom walking you through, okay, this is how you

set it up and this is how you do your coffee enema.

But yes, you'll do the coffee enema in your home, in your bathroom.

There's a very step-by-step process.

I would say definitely read the directions prior to doing one.

And with the coffee enema, basically what's happening is, you know, you are holding the

coffee, you're putting it through your rectum and holding it and then you'll get up and

then go to the toilet and then you'll poop.

So and then you'll go back down, maybe get some more coffee, insert it, get some more

coffee, fill up, hold it for a couple of minutes and then you'll get up, go to the toilet

and then you'll poop.

Ah, so you have to go right away.

Yeah.

But again, you want to try to hold the coffee for anywhere from 12 to 15 minutes, ideally.

Wow.

But I always tell people, just graduate up to it.

As a matter of fact, if you're interested in doing an enema, start off with a distilled

water enema, right, and then graduate up to it.

Therefore, you're comfortable.

You kind of understand what's going on, how to do your setup and then graduate up to

it.

Got it.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

Yeah, that makes sense.

And then people are like, I can only hold it for five minutes.

I'm like, give yourself some grace and celebrate that.

Yeah.

You know, you can, and then maybe next time it's eight minutes, maybe next time it's ten

minutes.

Got to start somewhere.

Yeah, you got to start somewhere.

Yeah.

Yeah.

My friend got a colonic.

He said it hurt.

Really?

Yeah.

Where did he go to?

He was paid it for years.

So I don't know if it hurt because of that or like the actual colonic itself, but it

did scare me.

I'm not going to lie.

Yeah.

Clonics should not hurt.

Okay.

Yeah.

Maybe he went to the wrong spot.

I don't know.

So it should just be smooth sailing.

Yeah.

It shouldn't hurt at all whatsoever.

Okay.

You might have a couple of gas cramps throughout the colonic, but that's normal, and that

would go right right away.

But when someone says it hurts, I'm like, it shouldn't hurt.

Yeah.

Maybe he went somewhere weird.

I don't know.

Nevada is not known for the best health care.

Yeah.

I'll just say that.

Yeah.

We're not up there in that department.

Well, when you come see us, you'll come get a colonic.

You could do the hockey at the ozone sauna.

Cool.

Yeah.

Still work.

What are some crazy testimonials you got?

Any crazy stories of healing journeys?

I don't know.

I mean, like I said, well, I mean, there was a guy that came in.

He was modeling for us and doing some stuff for us on a campaign.

And I said, hey, how often do you poop, and he goes, I poop every four days.

And I go, okay, Carson.

And he looked at me and he goes, is that not normal?

And I go, no, that's not normal.

He goes, are you serious?

And he was dead serious.

Wow.

He was, I seriously, for my whole life, like, I've been pooping, like, once every four days.

I thought that was normal.

He goes, no one ever asked me about this, Miranda.

No one's ever talked me about this.

Like, he said, you wouldn't even believe it on my IG.

All the themes that are coming up, you think it's like a chick, because he's like trying

to investigate on how can he, you know, how can he poop, you know, who can help them.

So he said, like, his whole Instagram feed is like talking about constipation, poop.

And it was quite interesting, because I thought, how many people think it's normal to not

poop?

Probably a lot, because like you said, no one really talks about it.

Not even in health class.

I don't remember it being discussed, growing up.

My parents never brought it up.

No, same.

Yeah, a lot of shame around it, right?

Yeah, there is.

And people, it's like that dirty little secret, like, they don't know who to talk to.

They don't want to talk to their boyfriend about it.

Women are going on vacation for 12 to 14 days.

They're not pooping the entire time.

I saw that.

Women do that.

I don't know why.

Yeah.

They said they can't poop in front of their boyfriend or whatever.

Yeah.

Oh, that's very common.

We hear that all the time.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, we do.

That's weird.

Yeah.

And the thing that blows me away is when I always ask someone, you know, one was last time

you pooped.

And they'll say, I don't remember.

And I'm thinking, you don't remember the last time you pooped.

Wow.

Like, we hear that all the time.

That is nuts.

It's scary.

It's unhealthy.

It's not.

We need to talk about it.

Yeah.

You know, yeah.

You do treatment on dogs too.

I know we both love dogs.

No.

I don't do treatments on dogs.

Oh, okay.

Because they're probably food.

They're eating.

They're probably dealing with some constipation too.

Yeah.

Definitely.

Yeah.

No, we only do humans.

And you should only do humans when it comes to colon hydrotherapy.

But no, I think dogs get constipated.

I think it's legit.

And Steve and I were just talking about that.

I'm like, you know, we talk about Carlos, our golden retrieval.

Yeah.

We talk about his poop schedule.

Like, did he poop?

You know, we're very interested.

You know, make sure he gets his morning poop and his night poop.

I mean, because if not, then we have an issue, right?

Yeah.

No, it's good to, good health monitor, right?

Yeah.

You could tell a lot.

I feel like about someone if they're not pooping on a good schedule.

Yeah.

We could tell a lot about your dog, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, for sure.

I check his poop all the time because he's allergic to everything.

Oh, is he sensitive stomach?

Chicken and palm trees.

And we got like 30 of them at the house.

Oh, wow.

Bad allergies.

I feel awful for him.

He's always scratching, you know?

Yeah.

Have you tried putting them on a binder?

I need to.

I haven't.

I think these are recommendations.

Yeah.

Okay.

Yeah.

It's like a pillars.

It's almost like a little activated charcoal, basically.

It's like once you ingest it, basically all the heavy metals and toxins cling to it.

Yeah.

And then you'll kind of help pull out all the bad stuff.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, we can talk about that.

That could be helpful.

I don't know.

What do I know?

Yeah.

We'll see.

Well, this has been great.

What do you got coming next?

Where can people find you support you and keep up with you?
