Episode 21:34 Happy Birthday BetyLou - Reflections On 80 Years Of Healthy Living

This week marks the 80th birthday of "Alabama's nutritional genius… the one and only BetyLou Pierce."

On this episode we not only honor BetyLou we get her to share her wisdom on how to live a long, happy and healthy life.

Specifically, BetyLou goes into detail regarding the Physical, Nutritional, and Emotional/Spiritual strategies she employs that have kept her vibrant, strong and fully active at 80.

In fact, over the past 40 years, these strategies have helped her avoid taking any prescriptive drugs… or even visiting a medical doctor.

That's amazing!

So, what are her secret strategies?

They're all laid out in this episode.

In fact, you might say that this information is more valuable than anything you could learn at medical school or in a graduate level course.

It's that good!!!

Episode 21:32 - What I Would Do If I Got Covid

The sudden surge in Covid cases has caused a lot of people to ask… "What can I take to overcome Covid?" On this week's episode we answer that question. Sort of. You see, we don't actually believe in "treating" Covid. Instead, we believe in doing things to strengthen the Immune System so IT can "treat" Covid. For example, one of the supplements we would take is Vitamin C. However, we would NOT take Vitamin C to "treat" Covid… we would take it to nourish and strengthen our Immune System so IT could treat Covid. Speaking of Vitamin C, it is just a PART of one of the seven strategies we would implement if we had Covid. All seven are things we would start doing the moment we felt sick. Give this episode a good listen as it contains some valuable information. Then, please be kind enough to share it with a friend.

Episode 21:31 - The Current Covid Crisis

Things seemed to be going pretty good regarding the Covid pandemic.

Cases and deaths were down… mandates were lifted… and the world was getting back to some sense of "normal."

Hard, and with a lot of controversy.

Specifically…

1) What may have caused it?

2) Is it truly a variant?

3) Who is most likely to get it?

4) How to overcome it?

These are some really good questions… and we provide some really good answers.

Episode 21:30 - The Effect Of Vaccines On Your Body's TWO Immune Systems

As you know, from listening to last week's episode of the Get Healthy Alabama podcast, your body has TWO Immune Systems:

The Cell Mediated Immune System and The Humoral Immune System.

Working together, these two Immune Systems keep you healthy and safe from pathogens (bacteria and viruses).

This week's episode focuses on the impact that vaccines have on these two Immune Systems.

And, believe it or not, the answer is actually quite simple:

Vaccines SILENCE the Cell Mediated Immune System and ACTIVATE the Humoral Immune System.

It really is that easy.

Well, at least it SOUNDS easy.

The truth is this:

Understanding what it means to SILENCE the Cell Mediated Immune System and ACTIVATE the Humoral Immune System will take a little work.

But don't worry… that's what this episode is for.

In fact, by the time you're done listening to this episode, you're not only going to understand the effect vaccines have on your your TWO Immune Systems, you're going to understand the effect they have on your overall health.

In addition, you will be truly informed when it comes to vaccines, allowing you to make educated decisions when it comes to whether or not you should get them.

One more thing:

Because this information is so important, there is a video that goes with it.

Get the video by visiting GetHealthyAlabama.com/21-30

Also, please share this episode, and the video, with a friend.

Episode 21:29 - Understanding Your Body's TWO Immune Systems

It seems that EVERYONE has an opinion regarding the Covid vaccine.

That's fine.

What's troublesome is the lack of "reason" supporting their decision… whether "for" or "against" the vaccine.

For example, very, very few individuals can answer this one basic question:

"What effect does the vaccine have on the TWO Immune Systems of your body?"

Don't feel bad if you can't answer this question because, up to now, no one has taken the time to teach you the answer.

Not your doctor.

Not your nurse.

And certainly not any of the so-called "health experts" or government officials on TV.

Well, today that's going to change.

On this week's episode of the Get Healthy Alabama podcast (available today!) we are going to PREPARE you to answer that question.

Yes, "prepare" you. You see, before you can understand the effect a vaccine has on the TWO Immune Systems of your body, you first must know something about these TWO Immune Systems.

That's where this week's episode comes into play.

On this episode you'll learn the primary role of each Immune System AND how they work together to keep you healthy and safe.

That will then "prepare" you to answer the question asked earlier:

"What effect does the vaccine have on the TWO Immune Systems of your body?"

This question, and its answer, will be the topic of next week's episode.

For now, listen to this episode and share it with a friend.

It's really, really important that you "get" this.

In fact, this information is so important, that I included a short, five-minute video (at GetHealthyAlabama.com/21-29) to go with it... a video you don't want to miss.

I also included a one-page chart you can print out that summarizes the functions of your TWO Immune Systems.

Episode 21:28 - Whether You Believe It Or Not, You ARE A Bodybuilder - An Interview With Lane Jones

You may not realize it, but you ARE a bodybuilder.

Perhaps not a "competitive" one, but you ARE, everyday, "building your body."

The type of body you are building is based upon the type of decisions you make.

That is, you're either "building" a healthy body… or an unhealthy one.

This fascinating truth is one of the driving forces behind Lane Jones' work as a competitive bodybuilder AND as the owner of Lane's Rock Solid Fitness in Citronelle, Alabama.

Since the time he was 12 and went to see "Rocky", Lane has been committed to building his body and his health through physical activity.

In the years that followed, Lane maintained his passion for working out while also acquiring a desire to follow in his parents footsteps by becoming a school teacher… a job he has done for the past thirty years.

About ten years ago, Lane decided to combine these two passions by opening his own gym… the aforementioned Lane's Rock Solid Fitness.

In his gym, Lane teaches people how to workout safely and strategically so that they can "Get Healthy" while creating the body of their dreams.

Like any good teacher, Lane knows the value of learning. To that end, he has invested his time and resources in educating himself the best he can regarding exercise and nutrition.

However, unlike so many "health coaches" and "personal trainers", Lane didn't get his information solely from some on-line courses.

Instead, he went to THE BEST… as in a few of the BEST bodybuilders of all-time: Eight time Mr. Olympia Lee Haney, the legendary Frank Zane, and former Mr. World Steve Davis.

Picking the brains of these brilliant men has enabled Lane to become a better bodybuilder (at age 53!) AND a better trainer for his gym members.

On this episode, Lane shares some of his vast knowledge with us… and he does so with an engaging style, along with a voice that sounds just like Matthew McConaughey, lol.

If you want to build a better body this episode is for you!

Episode 21:27 - Words Of Wisdom From The Amazing BetyLou Pierce

With over forty years experience as a nutritionist, BetyLou Pierce is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to natural health and healing.

On this episode she shares some of that knowledge with us.

Specifically, she covers four topics:

1) How the body can heal itself. 2) Why being healthy doesn't mean you never get sick. 3) The power of listening to your body. 4) Supplements: WHAT to take and WHEN.

What's most impressive about BetyLou is that, although she has worked and/or owned a health food store for over forty years, she refuses to treat every health problem with a supplement.

That is, instead of suggesting a supplement or two (or three or four) to her customers as a treatment, she first tries to talk to them about their diet.

About what may be CAUSING their problem.

How many health food stores do that?

Seriously.

If she wanted to, BetyLou could suggest bottle after bottle of supplements to her customers.

And they'd buy them!

However, she doesn't believe in the "a pill for every ill" mindset… even if it is a vitamin or herb.

Instead, she believes that the human body can heal itself IF it receives the nutrition it needs from your diet.

Of course, supplements help… but only as a "supplement" to the improvements you make to your diet.

Give this episode a good listen as BetyLou goes deep into these topics and provides practical steps you can take to help your body heal itself.

And, when you're done, share this episode with a friend :)

After living through a brain aneurysm, Patty Leonard knew that her health was a mess.

Severe depression and high blood pressure were only two of the conditions she battled with.

The treatments offered to her consisted of pharmaceutical drugs only.

That didn't sit well with Patty.

She wanted more.

She wanted her body to heal.

Knowing that "popping pills" would never heal her, Patty sought after a more natural approach.

An approach based upon the belief that the body CAN heal itself.

An approach that addressed her Physically, Nutritionally and Emotionally.

Fortunately, she found what she was looking for!

And her body DID heal itself!

On this episode, Patty shares her amazing health journey.

A journey that has allowed her to get off her antidepressants… get off her blood pressure medicines… and has left her in the best shape of her life at age 53.

Learn all about the strategies Patty employed, including a powerful emotional and spiritual breakthrough she recently experienced.

Then, do someone you love a favor and share the episode with them :)

Episode 21:25 - How Anedra Brown lost 99 pounds: Diet, Exercise… and Dealing with Emotional Trauma

Back at the beginning of this year (2021) we recorded an episode with Anedra Brown called "How To Lose 67 Pounds Without Even Trying."

It was very well received.

Since that time, Anedra has continued to lose weight… still without trying.

To date, she has lost a total of 99 pounds.

Her secret?

She focuses solely on Getting Healthy!

That is, she does NOT try to lose weight. Instead, she focuses her efforts on Getting Healthy!

As a result, the healthier she gets, the more weight she loses.

This "program" has worked really well for her… until recently.

Seems like her health improvements, and weight loss, have stalled.

This puzzled Anedra as she knew she still had a long way to go on her health journey.

She also knew that she was doing everything right, such as:

Avoiding bad foods while eating healthy ones, taking whole-food supplements, exercising, and taking time each day to "SEE" herself healthy.

However, despite her best efforts, nothing seemed to help.

her progress had come to a halt.

Then, one day, it hit her.

The weight she was at now was the same weight she was at in 2014.

Why is that significant?

Because in 2014 Anedra experienced an emotional trauma.

An emotional trauma that she responded to by putting on weight.

An emotional trauma that she had never fully dealt with.

An emotional trauma that wouldn't let her continue on her path to better health.

Anedra realized all of this and decided to do something about it.

Specifically, she decided to DEAL with the emotional trauma she experienced seven years ago.

She did… and her body responded by dropping 9 pounds in two days!

Yes… nine pounds in two days.

Her health progress is no longer stalled.

Best of all, she's not done yet.

Learn more about Anedra and her story by giving this episode a good listen.

She talks about the emotional trauma and how she dealt with it.

Her story will teach you, inspire you… and give you some ideas on how to advance on your health journey.
