Checklist for feeling good.

Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.

I was having a conversation with my friend Patrick earlier today. And he was discussing some of the health issues that he was having and the type of things that he's watching for it and the type of things that he's paying attention to.

A lot of them were nutrition-based, and so forth.

I was also having conversations with other people about similar things where people were having, you know, I got a little this or a little that and there was nothing that was so chronic or horrible that you would definitely recommend that they go talk to a doctor right away or anything of that sort.

And the funny thing about the way the American Medical System is, there's very few go-betweens, rather than going to the doctor's office or going to a hospital, there are very few people, you just call up and say, Hey, I got a question about this.

They exist out there, you know, you got your natural path, and you got your own all these other types of things that are out there, depending on your perspective of, of those. And nowadays they have, they're starting to have, you know, visits that you could do virtually, with a Nurse Practice.

Also want a nurse practitioner that was doing that, or, or even a doctor that you can go virtually, and just discuss with them what your issue is, and they can kind of help you kind of diagnose from there.

But there's a whole lot that you can do on your own. And it's one of the things that I've, I hate to say I've gotten good at it, because then I know the next thing that's going to happen is I'm going to get really sick or I'm going to drop dead.

But let me just say that up until now, I've gotten better and better every year.

Let's just say that every year, I've gotten better and better at diagnosing what ails me. So if there's anything, anything that feels doesn't feel right, anything that isn't doesn't seem to be working in tip-top condition, including my emotions, my mindset, all that stuff, it's all the same to me.

It doesn't matter whether it's physical, mental, or what have you. It's, it's all the same in terms of I handle it the same way.

So I kind of wonder about it, and see what pops up but there's also kind of a quasi checklist that I'll run through and see if there's anything that's different in any of those areas. One of the first main things I'll check is nutrition.

So I'll ask myself, you know, what have I been eating, eating and drinking?

What's different really about what I've been eating or drinking?

Have I been eating or drinking more of one thing, if nothing's different?

Have I had more of one thing?

Did I have that one thing and a certain part of the day, because that really makes a big difference, especially as you get older, you know, if you if you eat too late, yeah, you could be eating old good stuff?

But if you eat too late, sometimes that'll affect things you may end up with heartburn, you may end up with the acid reflux, and you may end up with, you know, feeling groggy in the morning, just because you ate too late, you got your blood sugar spiked, or whatever else, all the other things that happen with that.

But looking at all the different things when it comes to nutrition,
