It was more sheltered than most people in China. She grew up in an environment of learning and pursuing knowledge. However, Dr. Kong was also a bit of a rebel. Dr. Kong never liked rules that didn’t make sense. She has been getting in trouble since kindergarten. Overall, Dr. Kong learned that your environment can give you a certain strength or put you in a certain restraint. [03:45] The Differences In China and America When It Comes To Healthcare China has the biggest population in the world. There are two medical systems. People can choose to go into Chinese medicine or go into Western medicine. People who go into Chinese medicine also have to learn the whole Western medicine system. Only when people get great benefits will they start to accept a new approach to healthcare. Just because studies aren’t in English, doesn’t mean they don’t exist. [09:20] Can The Aging Process Slow Down For Humans? There are all these markers and symptoms of aging; we still haven't been able to label aging as a disease. Aging is a comorbidity. However, aging is just part of human life. Some people will have a heart attack and die, while others will live until their late nineties. Which way do you want your life to be? We need to pay attention to optimizing our bodies, so we don’t suddenly have health issues as we age. [13:40] Stem Cells Have The Power and Potential To Do A Lot For Your Body Each stem cell contains this full package of intelligence that actually makes being a human possible. A single stem cell has so much potential. How well a stem cell treatment works will depend on where the stem cells came from and how well they are made. Dr. Kong will get a stem cell treatment for herself every three months. [16:40] Are Stem Cells The Key To Humans Living Longer? Studies have come out looking at the potential capabilities of stem cells to prolong life and extend healthspan. In a study of rats and mice, a simple stem cell infusion can actually extend their lifespan by about 30%. Plus, it preserves their physical capabilities and mental capacities. If you can prevent the aging process, then you prevent the whole cascade to disease. You can avoid a lot of suffering by getting a stem cell treatment. [23:15] What To Know About Stem Cell Therapy With Dr. Kong First of all, before stem cells, there is a very comprehensive evaluation. Then, a naturopathic doctor will go over your entire history. Next, Dr. Kong will address deficiencies that are going on in your body. Plus, Dr. Kong will suggest lifestyle changes that she wants her patients to make. That way, you will have optimal results. Depending on what the patient needs, Dr. Kong will create a treatment plan. Check out Dr. Kong’s website: https://theacrm.com [27:25] Who Can Benefit From Stem Cell Treatments? If you are over age 35, you will start to notice aging. Everyone above age 35 can benefit from stem cells. Even if you are much older, stem cells will still benefit you. When researchers gave old rats stem cells, their lifespan tripled. The key is enhancing your quality of life with stem cells. [30:15] Natural Ways To Produce More Stem Cells In Your Body Fasting and intermittent fasting are powerful tools. Dr. Kong doesn’t eat before noon every day – at least 16 hours of fasting. What you eat will be the foundation of your body. Let food be your medicine. We need to respect the vessel that we are gifted. [32:00] Aging: What Is Really Happening In The Human Body? When we age, we are running out of stem cells. Being alive means we are getting damaged. As long as you have enough cells to replace what's damaged, then you're good. Stem cells are the engine of the body. If you don’t have an engine, then you’re not going to get anywhere. [37:15] Dr. Kong Recommends Supplements That Will Help Cellular Function Dr. Kong says vitamin D is so essential. Omega 3 is also important. Fulvic acid is one of Dr. Kong’s favorites. Ben even puts fulvic acid in his dog’s water bowl.

However, she had every card stacked against her. The first chapter starts with getting her visa rejected; it was one of the biggest obstacles in her life. Dr. Kong is grateful for America, and she feels like she belongs here. AND MUCH MORE!

#1102 Blocked Lymph = Stalled Results: 5 Habits Sabotaging Fat Loss (Fix Them Fast!) with Dr. Caitlin

#1102 Blocked Lymph = Stalled Results: 5 Habits Sabotaging Fat Loss (Fix Them Fast!) with Dr. Caitlin

Feeling puffy, tired, or stuck at the same weight even when you’re “doing everything right”? Your lymphatic system might be the missing link. In this episode of Metabolic Freedom, Ben Azadi sits down with Dr. Caitlin, a leading voice on lymph health and detox, to unpack how this under-talked-about system affects fat loss, energy, and hormones. You’ll hear the five sneaky habits that clog your lymph (most of us do at least two), plus simple daily fixes—movement snacks, real hydration, better sleep, and diaphragmatic breathing—to turn your body’s drainage back on and feel lighter, clearer, and more energized. What you’ll learn: The “circulatory system no one talks about” and why fat loss stalls when lymph slows. 5 habits that jam drainage: long sitting, shallow chest breathing, skimping on water/electrolytes, poor sleep, and chronic stress. How diaphragmatic (belly) breathing acts like a pump for lymph—try it in 60 seconds. A hydration reset that actually moves fluid (hint: water + minerals, not endless refills). How lymph influences hormone balance and fat absorption, and what to do about it today. Quick wins (do-them-today) Move every hour: 1–2 min of walking, calf raises, or rebounding. Belly-breath box: 4–4–6–2 (inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 6, pause 2) for 5 cycles, 2–3x/day. Mineralize your water: add a pinch of quality electrolytes to 2–3 glasses. Sleep upgrade: defend a 7–9 hr window; dim screens 60–90 min before bed. 🔗 Links and Resources: Drainage Checklist: https://doctalksdetox.aweb.page/p/825ac357-1867-48bd-a01c-87d908df43a9 🎤 Meet Me On Tour: I’d love to connect in person!
