Speaker 1: Please welcome back to Money Making Conversation, Dr I N. K. Smith. Hey, reson,
Speaker 1: gonna be back man. Well, I know you're busy, so
Speaker 1: just give a quick synopsis away, Yeah, what you're doing
Speaker 1: before I really get into the show. Yeah, Well, things
Speaker 1: have been busy as you As you said, I've been
Speaker 1: doing a lot of jeez. I published another novel since
Speaker 1: we last talk. It's a about a secret society up
Speaker 1: at Harvard. I was in one of Harvard's secret societies
Speaker 1: called Final Clubs, and so the book is called The
Speaker 1: Ancient Nine and it's about It's a fiction, but it's
Speaker 1: based on my experiences in one of these secret societies.
Speaker 1: So that came out. Um. And then I just recently
Speaker 1: published my new uh nonfiction health book uh called Clean
Speaker 1: and Lean uh thirty Days, thirty Foods and New You. Uh.
Speaker 1: And so that's out in stores right now, just dropped. Uh.
Speaker 1: So we're excited about that. And lastly, I came out
Speaker 1: with my app. Finally people have been asking me to
Speaker 1: happen and uh, so I finally have dr Ian's World. Uh.
Speaker 1: And it's an app that gives you daily meal plans,
Speaker 1: exercise videos, your personal coaches all to your phone and
Speaker 1: people can download that at dr Ian's World dot com.
Speaker 1: What's gonna happen is our send us or some um
Speaker 1: some artwork and that link and we're putting in a
Speaker 1: monthly newsletter that goes out to turing in thirty thousand
Speaker 1: fan club members and giving them an option to download
Speaker 1: that app. Because that's something that because your platform is
Speaker 1: so strong, you guys, you have sixteen books that that
Speaker 1: that that they can click on and buy or get
Speaker 1: some some some information that's been important. And I I know,
Speaker 1: or I gotta bring up a book that has played
Speaker 1: an important role in my life personally. Was the book
Speaker 1: previous to this is a Blast to Sugar Out, which
Speaker 1: became an instant New York Times best seller, helpening the
Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of people reduced bad sugars from their diet,
Speaker 1: lose weight, blood, lower blood sugar levels, and cut the
Speaker 1: cravings of My mom lives in Houston, Texas. And then, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, Dr Solo, she had lose weight because guess what,
Speaker 1: Like many many African American senior citizens, they have bad
Speaker 1: diet habits. And our reason. I felt that this was
Speaker 1: relatable because that was one of the more personal books
Speaker 1: that you have written about it. Uh, and you that
Speaker 1: I've read, I've read a lot of your books that
Speaker 1: you're talking about your brother leave you talk about your
Speaker 1: grandmother in that book as well. Correct, Absolutely, my grandmother
Speaker 1: had diabetes, two types of diabetes, and and that and
Speaker 1: I felt when I read that book that it could
Speaker 1: be relatable to my mom, and it had it had recipes,
Speaker 1: which is the corner stone of your book. You tell
Speaker 1: us how to eat, You tell us what to eat
Speaker 1: and how to do it on a daily basis. And
Speaker 1: so I gave that book to her, and guess what,
Speaker 1: I'm a happy son because so it's a Blast to
Speaker 1: Sugar Out. We're gonna talk about clean and lean. But
Speaker 1: I let go let everybody know he's still making money.
Speaker 1: If you go buy Blast to Sugar Out, he's gonna
Speaker 1: be happy too. But I gotta let you know that
Speaker 1: I just don't bring him on the show because he's
Speaker 1: a good friend of mine and uh and he's a
Speaker 1: good guest. I bring him on the show because of
Speaker 1: those those other things, but also the fact that I
Speaker 1: trust what he's said enough to allow my mom to
Speaker 1: be to be a person who should use his seas, uh,
Speaker 1: to use his his thought process, to use his menus.
Speaker 1: And guess what, I'm happy. And that's the type of
Speaker 1: what you do. Thank you know, And I want you
Speaker 1: to say that I told you before, if you don't
Speaker 1: mind me bringing that up, because that's my thank you
Speaker 1: to you and my also my my, my, my confirmation
Speaker 1: to my fans and my fans and my listeners that
Speaker 1: you're not just a regular guest to me. Dr. E. N. K.
Speaker 1: Smith is a person who whose resume speaks for itself,
Speaker 1: whose abilities to uh change lives over the past twenty
Speaker 1: years speaks for itself. And so I asked that to
Speaker 1: go what drives that? Because you know what, what what?
Speaker 1: Because you're you're almost writing a book a year. Okay,
Speaker 1: what drives you? Well? First of all, what drives me
Speaker 1: is that I love what I do. And what I
Speaker 1: do doesn't even feel like work for me. It feels
Speaker 1: like passion. It's like me pursuing my dream. Every single
Speaker 1: day I get up and I'm writing and creating. I
Speaker 1: like to create, whether it's in the health space, whether
Speaker 1: it's my fiction, my not levels, whether it's creating business opportunities.
Speaker 1: I just like to create. Um and um. This just
Speaker 1: you know drives me every day. I also I'm driven
Speaker 1: by my family. I want to provide for my family
Speaker 1: and give my children uh the opportunities that I did
Speaker 1: not have as a child. Because I always believe that transgenerationally,
Speaker 1: we're supposed to leave the world in a better place
Speaker 1: than how we got it. We're supposed to give our
Speaker 1: younger kids, more opportunities. So that drives me. And the
Speaker 1: other thing is, I just really believe that life is
Speaker 1: very short, and sometimes we get lost thinking about the
Speaker 1: here and now and we don't have a landscape view
Speaker 1: of life. And my landscape view is always in front
Speaker 1: of me, and I always say I want to do
Speaker 1: the most I can, the best I can, and in
Speaker 1: the most honest way I can, because I want to
Speaker 1: leave a legacy that will outlive me, and so helping
Speaker 1: people and empowering people and changing their lives. When I
Speaker 1: when people send me messages rashan Uh through Instagram or
Speaker 1: Facebook and they say, You've changed my life. I'm no
Speaker 1: longer on medications, my blood pressure is down, my doctor's excited.
Speaker 1: That really fuels me. Tell me about that app, then,
Speaker 1: because I'm as sure you're gonna have some of those
Speaker 1: testimonies on your app. Correct. Yeah, so dr Ian's World
Speaker 1: once again. You can download it at dr Ian's World
Speaker 1: dot com. But it's an app that has daily meal
Speaker 1: plans that populate your calendar. It has exercise videos you
Speaker 1: can follow along, It gives you recipes, it gives you
Speaker 1: a message board, and you have a coach seven three
Speaker 1: six that works with you within the app. So it's
Speaker 1: really all that you need. Some people have stopped, you know,
Speaker 1: even you know, having a personal trainer or a gym membership,
Speaker 1: because we give you all you can work out right
Speaker 1: in your home. And that's the design of the app.
Speaker 1: And so I want to encourage people, Hey, at the
Speaker 1: very least, give it a try. Has a seven day
Speaker 1: free trial. If you decide you want to go beyond
Speaker 1: the seven days, use the promo code cleaner C L
Speaker 1: E A N E R all caps that will give
Speaker 1: you a discount. But more importantly, this app is like
Speaker 1: the culmination of all of my work. It really makes
Speaker 1: it available to people seven three sixty five on your phone,
Speaker 1: your computer, your iPad, you go on vacation, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: You don't have to take the book with you because
Speaker 1: you have your phone, and your phone will say these
Speaker 1: are your meals today, this is your exercise of today.
Speaker 1: So it's really all encompassing. Yeah, I hope you have
Speaker 1: a don't give up button because you're such a good
Speaker 1: motivator and anybody just just should be just you and
Speaker 1: I I'm serious about that. And it should have like
Speaker 1: about ten different moments and every time they press that button,
Speaker 1: it's not the same don't give up moment, you know.
Speaker 1: I like that. By the way, that's a good idea.
Speaker 1: We could add that. Actually, do you feel like if
Speaker 1: someone feels like they really are getting ready to fall
Speaker 1: off and they need something, they can push that button
Speaker 1: and I can pop up and say something to them.
Speaker 1: I love that, actually, and and do it like my
Speaker 1: ten and don't make it like when they press it,
Speaker 1: it's not the same one. Pop up and go to
Speaker 1: the next one and they go and when they hit eight,
Speaker 1: you go for real though, for I love. As soon
Speaker 1: as we get off the phone, I'm we're gonna continue
Speaker 1: gonna talk about the book back, but I want to
Speaker 1: continue to talk about that app Clean and Lean because
Speaker 1: he's such an inspiration for me because he does exactly
Speaker 1: what he says is gonna do. He's gonna add that
Speaker 1: to this app. We'll be racked with more, Uh, Doctor
Speaker 1: I N. K. Smith and Clean and Lean thirty Days,
Speaker 1: thirty foods. Okay, just rae Sean McDonald coming back. I'm
Speaker 1: talking to you with my good friend Dr ian K. Smith.
Speaker 1: The first break we talked about, I had to thank
Speaker 1: you for you know, UH send a die plan for
Speaker 1: my mom. Now here's a new book I'll called Cleaning
Speaker 1: lan thirty days, thirty foods, a new you. I like that.
Speaker 1: People say, what's different about Clean and Lean? Listen. Clean
Speaker 1: and Lean is a third day program. It's we're clean
Speaker 1: eating meets intermittent fasting. So clean eating by itself is
Speaker 1: a great way to lose weight and be healthy. Intermitt
Speaker 1: fasting by itself is a great way to lose weight
Speaker 1: and be healthy. But what I did was I combine
Speaker 1: the two, so it's like one plus one actually equals three.
Speaker 1: And so this program is great because and by the way,
Speaker 1: people have tested already, the average weight loss in just
Speaker 1: thirty days is fifteen pounds. In fact, and our Facebook
Speaker 1: group and for those who are listening, join our Facebook group,
Speaker 1: it's called Cleaner, Get Leaner, Cleaner, Get Leaner. Someone posted
Speaker 1: that in nine days she was down nine pounds on
Speaker 1: Clean and Lean. I mean, it's that kind of program.
Speaker 1: And let me just explain to people why real fast,
Speaker 1: clean eating. You're eating less processed foods, all those things
Speaker 1: that are synthetic, all those chemicals, all those things that
Speaker 1: can disrupt your hormonal system. People think that they're eating
Speaker 1: well because they're eating low calories, they're eating low fats.
Speaker 1: But what they don't realize is that the food still
Speaker 1: are not clean. They're full of processed jumps. And so
Speaker 1: when you remove those processed ingredients, you allow your hormones
Speaker 1: to work work correctly, then you lose weight. Intermittent fasting
Speaker 1: says that you have feeding windows, so you choose a window.
Speaker 1: In the book helps you. You choose a window when
Speaker 1: you're going to feed. Let's say, for example, that I
Speaker 1: decide that my feeding window for the day starts at
Speaker 1: ten am. Then it goes to eight o'clock at night,
Speaker 1: So from ten to eight is my feeding window. Then
Speaker 1: my fasting window is from eight at night to ten
Speaker 1: in the morning. So it's intermittent fasting. You eat and
Speaker 1: you fast, You eat and you fast. Studies have shown
Speaker 1: that you can reduce your belly of fat. Doing this,
Speaker 1: you lose weight, you reduce your inflammation, you reduce your
Speaker 1: asthmatic symptoms um that come uh with with with issues
Speaker 1: of asthma. So you combine clean eating with intermittent fasting,
Speaker 1: and that's why people are seeing such incredible results. You know,
Speaker 1: when you let's let's just explain the word fasting you
Speaker 1: know when you were fast that the word denial, denial.
Speaker 1: You're something, you're something that this taste food. So you
Speaker 1: say between a PM and ten am, that's the fasting period.
Speaker 1: What exactly is going on? You're drinking water or liquids?
Speaker 1: What is that? So you're allowed to have water, you're
Speaker 1: allowed to have herbal tea, and you're allowed to have
Speaker 1: a cup of black coffee. You don't want to add
Speaker 1: anything to it. And let me explain to you why.
Speaker 1: The reason why the fast period works is because your
Speaker 1: body needs energy at all times of the day, whether
Speaker 1: you're walking, sitting, or sleeping. Your body needs energy. And
Speaker 1: so you feed your body energy by the foods that
Speaker 1: you eat. So you eat two thousand calories. The body
Speaker 1: takes those two thousand calories, converts it to energy and
Speaker 1: uses it to perform function sitting, up, standing, talking, whatever. Now,
Speaker 1: if you are not eating, your body still needs energy
Speaker 1: or shine, and so your body has to get it
Speaker 1: from somewhere. What your body does is it goes into
Speaker 1: your fat and it breaks down your fat because fat
Speaker 1: is the storage form of energy. And so your body
Speaker 1: goes into your fat, breaks down the fat and uses
Speaker 1: that as energy and That's why intermittent fasting is is
Speaker 1: is very uh effective at weight loss and fat reduction
Speaker 1: because you are not eating and so your body needs
Speaker 1: energy and you drive it into those fat stores. It's
Speaker 1: the same thing. For example, animals who hibernate over the winter,
Speaker 1: they do the same thing. They gorge and eat and
Speaker 1: eat and eat, and then long periods of time when
Speaker 1: they know they're not going to get food, they've now
Speaker 1: built up all these energy stores and they're fat, and
Speaker 1: they tear away at the fat over the period of
Speaker 1: time that they're fasting. I love this dude because he
Speaker 1: developed he you know, each one of your books has
Speaker 1: a unique point of view. And I was having this conversation,
Speaker 1: just a casual conversation with some friends who're shooting a
Speaker 1: commercial and one of Robbins last week, and I was
Speaker 1: talking about your food. Your body gonna find the food,
Speaker 1: absolutely your body. You used to stop all that. Now
Speaker 1: you know, body will find food, okay, and there gonna
Speaker 1: find the food in the fat. And so if you,
Speaker 1: if you control your eating habits, that's what you're talking about,
Speaker 1: control your ebag. But you you're helping us out. You're
Speaker 1: giving us a window because a lot of people don't
Speaker 1: know that window. So you said between two am a
Speaker 1: p m. Eat, Now, how should they eat? Are they
Speaker 1: like every four hours? Every two hours? How should yes?
Speaker 1: Good questions. So let me just say everyone can have
Speaker 1: a different clock. I just gave you. Ten to eight
Speaker 1: was mine. But you can choose to have a sixteen
Speaker 1: hour feeding window and an eight hour fasting window adds
Speaker 1: to twenty four. Or you can choose fourteen feeding, ten fasting,
Speaker 1: or twelve and twelve. You the book gives you all
Speaker 1: these different options because we all operate differently. Some of us,
Speaker 1: you know, it may be too hard for something, So
Speaker 1: that's why it's very customizable. Now what happens is, here's
Speaker 1: the big mistake. People make. People think that because they're
Speaker 1: going to be fasting that they actually don't have to
Speaker 1: pay attention to what they're eating during the feeding period.
Speaker 1: And that is wrong. You cannot just eat anything during
Speaker 1: the feeding period, or eat as many calories as you
Speaker 1: want to just because you have the fasting period coming up. No,
Speaker 1: you still have to be mindful. We don't count calories
Speaker 1: in my new book, Clean and Lean. Instead, what I
Speaker 1: do is I give you your meal plan. I give
Speaker 1: you all these different options. And you should see the
Speaker 1: list of the foods that you can have. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's it's a thirty thirty number lists everything from avocados, beef,
Speaker 1: organic or a er grass that beef, brown rice, cheese, chicken, chickpeas, duck, um, bacon, turkey, bacon, lemons, kale.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a thirty food list of all kinds
Speaker 1: of foods. So you eat those foods inside of your
Speaker 1: feeding window. But you eat three to four meals a day.
Speaker 1: Typically people will have three meals and snacks and that's all.
Speaker 1: That's the way you do it. You eat those meals,
Speaker 1: eat them during your feeding window, do your fasting. Only
Speaker 1: have coffee, tea, herbal tea or water during fasting. And
Speaker 1: I'm telling you the way up to fifteen pounds and
Speaker 1: dirty days. I'm telling it's crazy. It's that he knows
Speaker 1: I'm the worst eater. He does like he laughed at me.
Speaker 1: I'm the guy with crispy cream app you know, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hear something avocado toast. He converted me over that, kale.
Speaker 1: He's converted me over there. So I'm just telling you
Speaker 1: that I'm I'm a fan. I'm a believer, and my
Speaker 1: weight is tied to the teachings that he's done to
Speaker 1: me over the years. Like I said, IVE been knowing
Speaker 1: him two thousand and seven, okay, And the one thing
Speaker 1: I've been blessed in this relationship, he's always been consistent
Speaker 1: and his book always have a point of view. So
Speaker 1: a lot of people will flip the script and just
Speaker 1: trying to change the words, but he has a direct
Speaker 1: point of view. Why this particular die Because what he's
Speaker 1: learned is that all that's aren't made for everybody. That's right,
Speaker 1: That's exactly right. People say to me, why do you
Speaker 1: have seventeen books. I have seventeen books because no one
Speaker 1: program is gonna work for everyone. And if I hear
Speaker 1: something new or new research comes out, I try to
Speaker 1: harness that scientific research. I try to translate it for
Speaker 1: the average person, because I write my books for the
Speaker 1: average person so that you have the best knowledge that's
Speaker 1: most available to us. And that's why all these different plans. Now.
Speaker 1: I will also say this that people have to understand
Speaker 1: that I will never ever ever ask you to eat
Speaker 1: perfectly or exercise perfectly. No one's perfect, and programs that
Speaker 1: demand perfection out of you are never going to work
Speaker 1: for the long term. I'm interested in long term sustainability.
Speaker 1: So my programs say, you know what, you may have
Speaker 1: a glass of wine. You're not supposed to have alcohol
Speaker 1: for three days, but you may end up having a
Speaker 1: glass of wine. It's okay. The programs is not going
Speaker 1: to penalize you. I also say you have to move.
Speaker 1: The body is built to move. So in Clean and Lean,
Speaker 1: I have three tracks for you have a beginner track
Speaker 1: and intermediate track, and it advanced and all the workouts
Speaker 1: are customized for what you can do. And this is
Speaker 1: why I love this book, and others who have had
Speaker 1: advanced copies of it, they like it because they feel
Speaker 1: like they can find their own groove. And it's not
Speaker 1: one of those things where one size fits all. It's
Speaker 1: very difficult to do one size fit all program because
Speaker 1: we all have different medical conditions, different types of physical abilities,
Speaker 1: different types of preferences. And that's why I love this
Speaker 1: pro ground cleaning Lean is very flexible. Awesome, we got
