  • 8: Debunking 8 Common Health Myths

    Today I walk you through 8 common health myths that may be holding you back from reaching your goals. 

    Some of these myths are related to fasting, some are related to weight loss, and some are related to health in general (including heart health).  All of them still persist to one degree or another in the media, pop culture, and the medical establishment.

    If you can shift your mindset away from these myths, you'll have an easier time creating a healthier lifestyle.

  • 7: How to eat REAL FOOD (& why it matters so much!)

    Today I explain what I consider “real food”, or “whole food”, and why this is such an important topic.  (Hint: Processed food is a major driver of obesity, diabetes, and other chronic illnesses).

    I share several specific benefits you'll get by making improvements in the type of food you eat, as well as some practical tips on how to go about it, step-by-step.

    I think this is a fundamental topic, and if you take action here you'll likely experience a dramatic improvement in your own health, and also be able to help your children have better long-term health.

  • 6: Who Should Fast, and Who Shouldn’t? [No + Maybe + Yes]

    Today I walk you through my perspective about who should or shouldn’t be fasting.  

    I explain 3 groups:  Those who should NOT fast, those who SHOULD fast, and those who fall somewhere in between -- the “maybe” group.  The first group is easy to explain, but the 2nd and 3rd groups have a lot more nuance, and take a bit longer. 

    Overall, the vast majority of people fall into the group who would very likely benefit from intermittent fasting (or any type of fasting).
