In this episode of the Diet Doctor podcast, I sit down with physiotherapist and health advocate Abdul-Raouff Baghdadi to discuss how modern stress, poor movement habits, and industry-driven health approaches are affecting our well-being. We explore how excessive screen time and sedentary lifestyles have led to a decline in both physical and mental health, and how simple, practical strategies can help reverse these effects.

Abdul shares his holistic approach to healing, integrating physiotherapy, chiropractic care, and prophetic medicine to optimise recovery and improve long-term health. We dive into grounding techniques, breathing exercises, and the importance of movement throughout the day—challenging the myth of "perfect posture" and highlighting the benefits of habit-stacking.

This episode is packed with actionable advice for anyone looking to improve their health, reduce stress, and rethink the way they approach healing and movement.
