Why I recommend Purium’s ULT program

science, nature, and transparency

 
Those who are inspired by a model other than Nature labor in vain.

— Leonardo da Vinci
 

Everything I do, including in my field of medicine, this quote is the anchor that grounds me from all the noise.

After 20 years in clinical nutrition with countless dietary research studies, seminars, supplements, and detox protocols, I’ve learned that healing is not about ‘cutting edge’. Healing comes from natural biology. Many ancient scriptures, along with Einstein, called it ‘order’. In chiropractic, we call it innate intelligence. The power that created the body heals the body.

In modern medicine and wellness culture, it’s all about extracting ‘active’ ingredients from nature. Coming from my Eastern roots, nutrition means preserving the essence of nature. If we get ahead of nature’s rhythm, our foundation becomes unstable, leading to imbalance in all levels of our health.

Do you see your body as a garden or a machine?

There are absolute fundamentals for nutrition: 1) food comes from light, 2) nutrients come from the soil, 3) health begins in the gut, 4) metabolic detoxification needs to be supported, not forced, and 5) a calm nervous system is essential for healing.

This is why I promote Purium’s Ultimate Lifestyle Transformation program. Their products are not flashy but alive. Their science is not polished but foundational. From sourcing to formulation, there is coherence synchronized with nature’s rhythm, slow and steady. The healing power of nature does not give instant gratification, but her rewards last our entire lifetime. This is what the ULT program can do for you.

 

Tending the Terrain

Nature needs no help, just no interference.
— B.J. Palmer

It’s important to understand how healing works. First and foremost, the body is a self-healing organism. When we provide balanced nourishment and remove the stressors, the body begins to heal itself. Balanced nourishment is a conscious discipline of following Earth’s rhythm instead of getting on the ride of modern lifestyle trends, extreme diet, novelty, quick fixes, etc.

Second, every part of the body is completely connected and works as a whole. The body does not target just one organ, one type of toxin, or pathogen. It heals through coordination.

For example, any intense detox/ protocol while the nervous system is overstimulated, the gut barrier is compromised, and there’s insufficient nutrient input can do more harm than good.

The ULT program fosters the terrain within our body. The ingredients are whole food based, harnessing full-spectrum nutrients and biological antioxidants instead of high dosages of isolated nutrients. The gut repair is prioritized to increase the microbiome biodiversity and intestinal lining health. Adequate protein with 99% bioavailability and only 1% of nitrogen waste is provided. Each product works in synergy with others for optimal functioning of the body. I discuss further science and clinical application in depth in my ULT webinar.

 

Sourcing: the future is regenerative Agriculture

The beginning is the most important part of the work.
— Plato

Sourcing is the most important part of nutrition. We can have 10 apples, each from a different source, and the nutrient content will vary greatly. I am blessed to have grown up in Korea, foraging spring water every morning and wild greens and roots with my grandmother. My understanding of nutrition deepened with permaculture farming in Costa Rica and working with regenerative farmers.

While there are many greenwashing labels, even terms like ‘organic’ and ‘grass fed’ do not represent the totality of nutritional value. Yes, organic food is important, but the nuances make up the science, not just labels. For example, we all know that a water source is critical for farming. Yet, it is not an issue when it comes to organic certification. So if the ‘organic’ products were irrigated with tap water (loaded with chemical toxins), I wonder how much difference there is compared to conventional products.

How about ‘grass-fed’ and ‘pasture-raised’? What type of grass are they eating? Since grass-fed is in such high demand, many farmers are trying to cram in more livestock. This means 1) there’s a less chance that the cows will roam and graze to get all the nutrients they need and 2) there’s less time for the soil to rest and allow the native plants to regrow. If you consume meat, make sure to ask the farmers about the stock density and grazing practice.

I encourage my patients to buy at farmer’s market whenever possible and try growing something as simple as herbs or tomatoes. This symbiotic relationship with nature is the ultimate solution to chronic illnesses. Gut health is soil health, and nutrition comes from the soil, not from the lab.

Glyphosate, Cancer, and Regenerative Farming

Our broken food system, starting with industrial farming, has a direct correlation with the rise of chronic illnesses, including cancer. This film explains why regenerative farming is crucial for our health, our loved ones, and our earth. This is central to the ULT program.

 
 
 

Ancestral seeds

  • Seed selection is the first step to good farming. Whenever people say ‘I can’t have grains’, often it has to do with farming and manufacturing practices that affect their chemical profile. This includes the genotype of seeds. Obviously, we know that GMO seeds have their DNA altered. Organic seeds mean non-GMO and no pesticides. Whereas ancestral seeds are ancient, heirloom seeds passed down through generations. Not only are ancestral seeds fertile and healthy, but according to Dr. Vandana Shiva, they are the source of life: purity and genetic diversity. This is why when people with gluten sensitivity travel to small towns abroad and try homemade gluten foods grown from the ancestral seeds in healthy soil, often their bodies respond differently.

  • Soil: Did you know that it can take 500-1000 years to build one inch of topsoil? Purium farm has some of the richest, deep topsoil with a massive ancient lake bed.

  • Mineral-rich spring water

    • This was one of the most exciting parts about Purium’s farm. Glyphosate, being highly water soluble, water source in farming is critical. Many of you know that I am big on structured water’s impact on our health and microbial activity in the soil. Spring water is by far the best coherent structured water. I talk about this in detail in the ULT webinar.

 

Formulation: Science, common sense, and original minds

Research is to see what everyone else has seen and think what nobody has thought.
— Albert Szent-Györgyi

These are the minds behind the ULT program, along with the cofounder, Dave Sandoval. One of the common characteristics they share is that they thought outside of the box.

  • Albert Szent-Györgyi:

    • One of my favorite scientists of all time. This godfather of modern biochemistry is best known for discovering vitamin C, which earned him a Nobel Prize in 1937. But his later research was much more profound, evolving from cellular respiration to the biochemistry of cancer. He was the first to apply quantum physics to cancer research, challenging conventional treatment and government funded research to look at cancer as a bioelectronic issue instead of a chemical reaction issue. A lot of my work in structured water and metabolic detoxification is based on Szent-Gyögyi’s research.

  • Ann Wigmore:

    • If you’ve ever tried wheat grass juice, you’ve heard of Ann Wigmore. I absolutely love visiting her down to earth institute in Puerto Rico. Ann Wigmore was a living example of 1) food and love as medicine and 2) how wisdom and common sense go further than academia. She healed herself from colon cancer by observing nature, remembering how her grandmother cared for the soldiers during wartime, and trusting that her body could heal itself. I’ve witnessed miracles in my own clinic applying her living food philosophy and have been practicing it myself since 2002.

  • Dr. Bernard Jensen:

    • Another pioneer in natural medicine, Dr. Jensen was a chiropractor, nutritionist, and an iridologist who was best known for his timeless book, Dr. Jensen’s Guide to Better Bowel Care, and the iridology chart. Dr. Jensen’s knowledge comes from immersing himself in the different cultural practices of 55 countries. His deep understanding of colon cleansing, proper digestion, and balancing intestinal flora is deeply rooted in the ULT program.

  • Prof. Dr. Maurizio Luca-Moretti:

    • Dr. Luca-Moretti discovered an ‘ideal human amino acid profile’ and created the essential amino acids in a perfectly balanced ratio. 99 percent of these building blocks can be used to build the body's own protein, making them bioavailable, easily digestible without any stress to the hardworking detox duo, kidneys, and liver. Dr. Luca-Moretti made them so gentle that those with stomach cancer or in comas could handle them without any stress to the body and didn’t have muscle wasting. Considering many protein rich foods lead to the formation of harmful metabolic waste such as ammonia and urea, this amino acid complex a game changer in optimizing metabolic detoxification.

  • Fritz Albert Popp:

    • No introduction needed if you are a quantum biology enthusiast. This German biophysicist’s discovery of biophotons changed the way we see nutrition, cancer, and metabolism. Fritz-Popp stated that the true value of food is based on its light-storing capacity, and humans are not primarily carnivores or vegetarians but light mammals. My work in quantum nutrition is greatly influenced by his research. Dave Sandoval travelled to Germany and personally met Dr. Fritz-Popp and had Purium’s products tested by him. He was blown away by the coherence of biophotonic emission.

 

What’s included in the ULT program

 
 

An alarming nutrients loss in our foods due to soil degradation and environmental pollution.

Power Shake

  • This shake is not an ordinary green shake. The chlorophyll content is exceptionally higher, thanks to Purium’s healthy soil. Power shake has a balanced ratio of macro and micronutrients and abundant phytonutrients. No nutrients are lacking or excessive, just balanced. This unforced combination allows our metabolism to self-regulate. In my ULT webinar, I discuss Fritz Popp’s work on biophotonic emission and why this seemingly ordinary shake is extraordinary.

 

Super Amino 23

  • This is the most comprehensively studied protein with over 30 double-blind clinical studies. Meat protein is not well utilized in our tissues due to malabsorption and because amino acids are not viable. Each serving provides 15g of protein with 99% bioavailability, zero stress to the liver and kidneys, and gives you lean muscle and lots of energy. That’s an extra 30g of protein daily with the ULT program without any stress to the body. They are called Super Aminos 23 because they get absorbed into the body within 23 minutes! This is a must-have for those with weak adrenals, blood sugar imbalance, and a slow metabolism.

Biome Medic

  • This is by far the most impressive gut support supplement I’ve ever seen. If I had to choose one supplement, this would be it. Originally formulated to help those with SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) and a leaky gut, this gut support is inspired by Albert Szent Gyorgyi’s research in cellular metabolism and cancer. What is striking is that Biome Medic is the ONLY product certified to remove glyphosate from the body with 74% reduction in 6 weeks! The following charts are from my ULT webinar where I show the correlation between glyphosate and different types of cancer and neurological disorders, including autism (which the cofounder, Dave Sandoval is very passionate about). While there are many toxins out there, the reason I emphasize glyphosate and the importance of the ULT program is that glyphosate damages the gut barrier (tight junction), speeding up toxins into the body. For those who are concerned about gluten content, the amount of gluten is a fraction of what is in gluten free flour.

  • Super CleanseR

    • Deworming is essential to cleanse the GI tract and rebuild a healthy intestinal environment. Parasite cleanse is never about the parasites alone. Many jump into an intense parasite cleanse when the body is not ready. Super CleanseR is gentle and effective, aiming for the least disruption to the delicate microbiome.

  • Alpha Omega

    • Plant-based omega-3 fatty acids for healthy brain function, clear vision, strong cardiovascular health, and proper development during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

  • Sleep Nightly

    • If we don’t sleep, our bodies cannot heal. Sleep Nightly is an adaptogenic and botanical formula designed to support sleep cycles, the nervous system, and a healthy stress response.

  • Dark Berry Protein

    • Additional protein support. This best seller in Europe has plant-based protein with 12 phytonutrients, medium-chain triglycerides, digestive enzymes, and a full spectrum of trace minerals to support collagen, memory, focus, healthy glucose levels, and heart health.

 

Cancer is primarily a metabolic disease

In my ULT webinar, I discuss how emerging studies suggest that cancer is a metabolic disease. Along with the glyphosate removal, the ingredients in the ULT program are exceptionally comparable to the anti-cancer diet study, which suggests at least a 60-70% decrease in breast, colorectal, and prostate cancers, a 40-50% decrease in lung cancer, and is beneficial for both prevention and recovery from cancer.

 

Back to basic Science

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought,
but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.

— Albert Einstein

This powerful quote from Einstein is becoming more and more self evident. Without nature, we do not exist. Period.

When I began my Lyme disease research, it was clear that there was a direction correlation between chronic illness and environmental crisis. Good science begins with reverence for nature. Good science abides by universal principles, striving to conserve more than consume, bringing order instead of entropy. Purium’s commitment to regenerative health is in every step of farming practice, meticulous manufacturing process, low carbon foot/food print, and plastic free packaging. Knowing our own healing is contributing to healing our Mother Earth is incredibly profound. Through this program, my intention is for you to live in alignment with nature.

 

what to expect:

“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

While we are all unique individuals, the ULT program is a reminder that the foundation is where the magic is. I’ve certainly seen ‘miracles’ such as reversing illnesses, getting off meds, successful pregnancy after many attempts, etc. But healing happens steadily over time. The ULT program is not a quick fix.

What I encourage you to look for is subtle changes, such as more awareness of your habits, a decrease in cravings, and feeling stronger and more grounded. These are signs that you are ready for deeper healing.

For those who have complex health challenges and sensitivity, there may be some stepping stones along the way. You can try just one or two products at a time until you are able to experience the synergy of the program. Purium also offers customizable and maintenance programs. I discuss different options, my personal favorites, in my ULT webinar.

Prevention and maintenance are the most important parts of well-being. It may be boring and repetitive. But this is how mastery is achieved, from consistent mindful effort. Just like regenerative soil, it takes time, but each season it just gets better. This is what I want for all of you!
