Many of us have problems with digestion, but we don’t talk about it. Health starts in the gut for so many reasons so digestion is key. Improving digestion is important not only to extract and absorb the healthy foods that you eat, but to improve your immune system. We’re about to reveal the key to improving your digestion.

Reasons for poor digestion

Now there are a lot of reasons for digestive complaints — stress, nutrient deficiencies, food allergies, or H pylori bacteria. Sometimes, it’s as simple as timing and chewing your food. One of the major culprits of poor digestion includes low hydrochloric acid in your stomach and low enzymes that are released from your pancreas and your liver. If you can do this one thing before every meal, you can improve your digestion dramatically. Get rid of the embarrassing gas and bloating, pain, constipation, diarrhea, and improve your immune system.

The key to improving digestion

So, the key to improving digestion is taking digestive enzymes. There are a number of reasons why the standard American diet causes poor digestion. Sometimes it’s an underlying condition, like diabetes or obesity, which will need to be addressed. But oftentimes, you can do something as simple as taking a digestive enzyme before each meal to help break down the food. You can eat the healthiest diet in the world, but if you’re not breaking down those nutrients and your body is not able to absorb them appropriately, then a healthy diet is not as helpful as you think.

Digestive enzymes include things like amylase, protease, lipase, phytase, cellulase, invertase, and maltase, which help to break down nutrients into the smallest pieces so that your intestines can absorb them.

If you have underlying conditions obviously they need to be addressed. We’ve actually developed a supplement containing these digestive enzymes combined with other ingredients like zinc, sodium alginate, slippery elm, marshmallow root, DGL, and berberine to help coat the stomach and help with issues like acid reflux. It also helps coat the intestines to improve absorption. It’s a combination of digestive enzymes and healing agents. Berberine is an herb that can help combat the negative effects of H pylori bacteria such as acid reflux, gastritis, gas, pain, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea, if you are able to absorb these nutrients, many of these digestive issues will go away.

The name of the supplement is True Digestion, and you should check it out. Taking these digestive enzymes before each and every meal can make a huge difference, and help relieve all kinds of GI complaints and improve the function of your immune system.

So I’m happy that you checked me out. Make sure you share this, you like this, you share it with your friends and loved ones who may also have problems with digestive complaints. Hit the bell, sign up for notifications. We post several times every week. And again, this is your channel to improve your health and wellness, and to achieve optimal health.

Thanks so much, I’m Dr. Ryan Shelton.

 

 

 

 

Here’s a pretty common question that keeps coming up: Is eating eggs healthy for you? This conversation came up in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, when doctors and researchers showed that cholesterol had a link to cardiovascular disease, stroke, heart attack, diabetes. But new research has shown that dietary cholesterol intake has very little to do with your risk factors for those chronic diseases.

Cholesterol and chronic diseases

The body produces cholesterol, but it is not the underlying culprit for all of these chronic issues. Inflammation is the real culprit, causing damage to blood vessels. The body uses cholesterol as a “paste” of sorts to try to protect itself from further damage.

There was a lot of interest in the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s about dietary cholesterol intake, and, of course, eggs have a considerable amount of cholesterol, specifically in the yolks. But research in the last decade has clearly shown that the intake of eggs has virtually no increased risk factors for chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, stroke, and Alzheimer’s.

Are eggs healthy?

We know that eggs are a complete protein. They’re high in choline and lutein, both of which are great for eye health, nerve transmission, and cell signalling. One study showed that the intake of eggs on a daily basis had no effect on plasma cholesterol or blood cholesterol. Another study has shown that the daily intake of eggs has no effect on increasing risk factors for cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome. Another study in Korea showed that the daily intake of eggs actually decreased the risk of metabolic syndrome.

One study done on a Mediterranean cohort showed that there were no changes in blood cholesterol or triglycerides. Another study has shown that the daily consumption of eggs actually improves the good HDL cholesterol to bad LDL cholesterol ratios.

Another cool study has shown that eating the whole egg, both the yolk and egg white, actually improves your body’s potential to increase muscle protein.

So, avoiding the yolks, which is higher in cholesterol, may diminish that effect.

We know that certain proteins (like red meat) increase the risk factors of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, but studies have shown that eggs do not. They are a complete protein, and high in nutrients like choline and lutein.

Whilst eggs are healthy to eat, you should still try to limit it to one egg per day, seven per week.

 

If you suffer from high cholesterol, you may want to talk to a physician about limiting egg consumption a little more. But the research shows that consuming approximately one egg per day has no negative effect on cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or Alzheimer’s.

 

 

 

Of course, it also depends on how you cook them. Boiling is a simple healthy way to cook and eat eggs. It doesn’t have all of the added fat when you fry an egg. Scrambled eggs are great too because you can include vegetables in the mix that have antioxidant effects. Just remember — eggs are healthy. Don’t be scared of them!

Since the 1940s, the majority of strategies and products out there are focused around appetite suppressant and appetite control. Whilst it’s important to control your cravings and appetite as part of a weight loss program, there are other strategies to help you burn fat internally. This means not just restricting the calories you eat, but also helping your body burn current fat stores.

There are three key nutrients that will help your body do this, and we’ll be looking at them more closely here.

 

3 Key Nutrients That Burn Fat

1. Chromium

The first of these nutrients is chromium. It’s actually also known as glucose tolerance factor. When it comes to weight loss, blood sugar is the root culprit and insulin is the target hormone that tells your body to store calories. So, if we can get better control of glucose and insulin, then weight loss will happen much more easily.

Chromium actually binds to amino acids and helps your body absorb them. Chromium has been found in both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes to help people lose weight. It decreases fasting blood glucose, hemoglobin A1C, and insulin resistance. So on top of controlling your appetite and cravings, you can also change your body’s metabolism so that you’re not storing fat but burning fat instead.

2. Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)

The second nutrient is ALA. It’s found in meat, spinach, cruciferous vegetables, carrots, beets, and root vegetables. Alpha lipoic acid helps to moderate glucose and insulin levels in your body. It has also been shown to help with neuropathy in individuals with high blood sugar. It improves insulin sensitivity which affects how your body responds to the calories. It encourages your body to burn fat instead of storing it.

 

3. Milk thistle

The third is not actually a nutrient, it’s an herbal agent called milk thistle. Milk thistle has been shown, in multiple studies, to improve blood sugar and insulin sensitivity. There is a component of milk thistle called silymarin. One study has shown that intaking milk thistle for just 45 days decreases blood glucose by 11%, and insulin by 14%. Improving blood glucose and insulin is important in helping your body burn fat. Milk thistle has the added benefit that it protects the liver and improves liver function for blood glucose.

We’ve actually developed a supplement called Trim 14 which includes these ingredients, and also some appetite suppressants. I encourage you to check that out. It’s highly effective for the patients that have used it so far. So, again, these are the three key ingredients that help you burn fat. Not restrict calories, not restrict appetite, not control cravings. We can do that through the supplement. But look at these three nutrients that have the ability to change the body’s way of dealing with blood sugar, with insulin, and whether or not we store fat or we’re burning fat.

 

Make sure to share this with your friends and loved ones. Check out some other videos that I’ve created about weight loss and about diabetes, and offer your feedback and ideas.

I believe in the original meaning of the word doctor, which is ‘docere’. It means teacher. So, I’m here to teach you how to become optimally well and healthy.

Want to improve your vision? Check out this number one master tip that will help you improve your sense of sight.

 

The #1 Tip to Improve Your Vision

The number one tip to improve vision? Eat color. The secret is in the “nine and five” method: eat nine servings of fruits and vegetables with five different colors, each and every day. Try this method for 30 days.

 

 

Retina

The retina in your eye has specific targeted cells that absorb colors like a sponge and use them as powerful antioxidants. The colors in berries, fruits, veggies, and dark leafy greens are rich in carotenoids, lycopene, ziazanthene, lutein, betacarotene, vitamin A, taurine, and vitamin C, which can help improve your vision.

 

Fresh Fruits and Vegetables

You may have to shift how you shop at the grocery store as you’ll be looking for colors now. Choose fresh fruits and vegetables, but frozen ones will do too. You might have to make room in your refrigerator for all of these new foods because they take up a different amount of volume or space in your refrigerator and freezer than processed foods would in your pantry or cupboard.

 

 

So, color is the real master tip for helping to improve vision.

Conclusion

In addition to this, we have developed a supplement called Vision 20, along with other researchers. It contains powerful antioxidants, with high levels of lycopenes, ziazanthenes, lutiens, and betacarotenes. You can try this supplement risk free for 30 days.

We are going to reveal the single best way to fix erectile dysfunction in 30 days. And it’s really quite simple! This topic is directed towards men, but women are encouraged to share this with their male counterparts too because, as we know, men can be a little intimidated about medical information and interventions.

 

Balance your hormones

The single best way to fix erectile dysfunction is to balance your hormones. You’ll need to balance out several hormones including testosterone, thyroid, DHEA, growth hormone, insulin, and kidney hormones. To help balance insulin and kidney hormones, we need to get your blood sugar and blood pressure under control. We also need to balance out those other hormones, making sure that they’re within normal range for your age group. We can always look at good nutrition, herbal supplements, and L-Arginine, but if your hormones are not in balance, then you can have a more difficult time achieving an erection.

We’ve developed a masterclass of five pillars of health: nutrition, exercise, mind-body relationship, detox, and hormone balancing. We’ve also developed a supplement called Barbarian XL, which is tremendously effective at providing men with the erections that they desire. When we put all of these five pillars of health together, combined with the supplement, it’s remarkably effective. But we have to make sure that those hormones are in balance first before anything else as that provides the foundation.

 

Oftentimes, if we don’t have balanced hormone levels, even the most effective medications will not work. But if you apply the five pillars of health with the hormone balancing, you’ll see remarkable results.

The single best way to fix erectile dysfunction in 30 days is to make sure you get those hormones in balance.

 

Subscribe to the page, share with your friends, with your loved ones, like the page, give us feedback and ideas. We always want to know what your process is and what you want to learn more about.

I uploaded similar videos on how to make sure your blood pressure is under control, how to make sure your blood sugar is under control, and to make sure that these other hormones (thyroid, testosterone, DHEA, growth hormone) are all under control. Make sure you check those out, too. Subscribe to the channel so you can learn more week by week, and take care of yourself and achieve better erections.

Thanks so much for joining me today. We’ll have more later this week. My name is Dr. Ryan Shelton.

 

 

 

We’ll be exploring the ugly truth between longevity and modern conventional medicine. Historically, longevity has been defined by something called Vital Statistics, which is run by the CDC every year in the United States. It takes into account things like death rate, infant mortality and life expectancy. Modern medicine has increased life expectancy to about 78.6 years. However, the situation has changed. The most recent report by the CDC shows that the deadliest and most common killers of Americans include heart disease, cancer, accidents, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, pneumonia, kidney disease, and suicide.

When we look at longevity, it’s a mathematical process where we look at infant mortality and life expectancy over time. Modern conventional medicine has done a fantastic job on improving infant mortality and decreasing infections. These used to be the number one killers, but through improved infant care, better maternal care, the development of antibiotics and vaccines, we were able to improve mortality rates. But, again, the conditions have changed. Diseases and the afflicted are not reducing in numbers, they’re only changing in type.

So it’s no longer infant mortality and infection that is skewing longevity and the length of life, but the chronic diseases that now affect us all that are the major cause of death.

Modern Medicine vs. Longevity

Modern medicine is mostly about control and palliation. It is a reactive type of medicine, not focused on being proactive and preventative. And that’s the ugly truth – that it’s a reactive approach to health. They wait for the disease to come about and then they react to it. It’s not focused on being proactive and preventative. In the case of most other medical care, it’s mainly about control, slowing the advance, reducing distress, minimizing disability, and prolonging death, which are all noble causes, but it’s different than promoting quality of life and improving longevity in beneficial ways.

Longevity is more about the quality and prevention of chronic disease.

Longevity is bigger than just medicine itself. It’s health promotion, education activities with clean water, nutritious food, clean and disaster-free habitation, proper sanitation, control of pollution, poverty alleviation, empowerment of the deprived and disadvantaged, and lifestyle modifications. It includes a change in world view or a paradigm shift for most physicians. Wellbeing implies the presence of positive emotions and the absence of negative emotions, mature character traits, including self-directedness, cooperating with others, self-transcendence, self-satisfaction, and quality of life. Character strengths and virtues, such as hope, compassion, and courage, are all now measurable by scales.

So this means that conventional medicine needs to have a paradigm shift away from control and palliation to prevention and cure. We’ve developed a masterclass which focuses on longevity, and we use the five pillars of health, diet and nutrition, exercise, balancing hormones, detox, and mind-body relationship. We’ve also developed a supplement called Longevity Activator, which actually helps to transform your genes and the pathway that you take in longevity to provide a better quality of life.

 

So, again, this involves a paradigm shift looking more on prevention being proactive and looking towards cures.

Be sure to check out my other videos. I’ve made some on high blood pressure, diabetes. Give us your feedback and ideas. I always want to hear what you’re interested about, so I can help educate you on health and wellness.

Thanks so much for joining me. Again, my name is Dr. Ryan Shelton.

 

 

 

Here are seven diabetes superfoods that you need to eat daily, and the best thing is – they work fast! If you start to make these seven superfoods part of your daily routine, you can see rapid changes in your blood glucose level and stabilization of haemoglobin A1c.

 

Cure Diabetes Fast 7 Superfoods

1. Beans and legumes

The number one superfood is beans and legumes. They are terrific sources of fiber, protein, magnesium, and calcium. A study done in 2012 showed they helped to lower blood glucose levels, blood pressure, and triglycerides in people with diabetes when eaten at least two to three times a week. Earlier studies in the early 2000s showed that the single most important food that diabetics can begin to incorporate into their diet to help stabilize blood sugar is, in fact, beans and legumes.

2. Seafood

Superfood number two: fish and seafood, especially cold-water fish, salmon, mackerel, and shellfish. Look for low mercury sources of fish and seafood. Trout is a terrific source of omega-3s and minerals. A British study showed that it has helped lower risk factors for cardiovascular disease and kidney disease in individuals with diabetes.

3. Nuts and seeds

Nuts and seeds are rich in fiber and protein. A study done in Canada in 2014 looked at data from 12 clinical trials and showed that eating just two servings of nuts and seeds a day lowered and stabilized blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It helped with cholesterol levels and reduced risk factors for something called metabolic syndrome.

4. Berries

Any dark berries such as blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries make up this group of superfood. Researchers at Harvard School of Public Health found that for every three servings of blueberries eaten per week, people can reduce their risk for type 2 diabetes by as much as 26%.

 

5. Dark leafy greens

This includes kale, spinach, collard greens, and mustard greens. According to a review published in the British Medical Journal, eating one and a half cups of dark leafy greens each day can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by up to 14%.

 

 

6. Yogurt

The sixth diabetes superfood is yogurt. Greek yogurt is recommended as it’s a little higher in protein and a little less in carbohydrate content than normal yogurt. It is also really high in calcium, magnesium, protein, and those all-important probiotics which can help with mental health, gut health, cardiovascular health, and, certainly, help lower your blood pressure.

7. Avocado

The seventh superfood that helps reduce your blood sugar is avocado. Avocado is high in monounsaturated fats, fiber, potassium, and lutein. In 2013, a study showed that avocados can help lower cholesterol, promote normal blood sugar, and reduce inflammation. People with diabetes have a real problem with inflammation, and insulin is a pro-inflammatory hormone which increases risk factors for a number of eye conditions, kidney conditions, and circulatory conditions. So, anything we can do to help reduce inflammation is beneficial.

These are the seven superfoods for diabetes. What you can do tonight is have a plateful of beans, legumes, lentils, and dark leafy greens. You should start eating these foods as often as you can (daily is best!).

Let’s talk about a silent killer that affects millions of people in the world — non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, or fatty liver disease. Find out the number one tip on how to stop it, if not reverse it.

About your liver

The brain might be the “General” of our bodies, but the liver is certainly the “Captain”. It has so much importance to your health. On average, an adult liver is approximately 3.5 pounds and has over 500 functions in the body. It affects your immune system, digestive system, and detoxes everything that comes into the body either through the mouth, skin, or nose. It also affects your brain directly.

 

An incredible thing about your liver is that it is regenerative. You can take 90% of your liver out and over time, it can regenerate.

What is fatty liver disease?

There can be many causes of liver disease, such as viruses or alcohol use. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is characterized by fatty infiltration of hepatocytes (or liver cells) in a person who consumes less than 25-30 grams of alcohol per day. It is a process where healthy liver cells are replaced with fat due to inflammation and bad habits. The danger with fatty liver disease in a moderate drinker or a non-drinker is that it’s mostly silent. Symptoms only appear in the later stages. You may notice bloating, the whites of the eyes becoming yellowish, or itching in your palms and feet.

It’s estimated that about 25% of patients have fatty liver disease, and they don’t even know it. If you’re overweight, your risk shoots up to 75%. You’re may be thinking, “Oh, I’m slightly overweight. I have a little pot belly, but everything is fine.” The problem is that fatty liver disease turns fibrotic and cirrhotic over time. It can progress to liver failure and kill you. The scary thing is most people don’t even know that it’s going on in their bodies. There are known risk factors of fat liver disease: obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, metabolic syndrome, high blood pressure, and many medications. Common (purportedly safe) medications can cause this kind of fatty liver damage.

Fatty liver disease cannot be solved with medication

There’s no medication to solve fatty liver. It’s all down to lifestyle. It’s about changing your lifestyle choices and habits so that your liver can repair itself over time. Things like weight loss, avoiding food allergies, avoiding refined grans, trans fatty acids, brominated vegetable oil, can be helpful and protective against fatty liver. We also know that adding things like Vitamin E, Vitamin C, L-carnitine, MIC, lipotropics, betaine, magnesium, zinc, lysine, taurine, omega-3 fatty acids, bitter vegetables, and cruciferous vegetables can help protect you against this disease.

The liver is the only organ that can regenerate in the capacity that it can. But it takes a long time, and you’ll have to be patient. You have to moderate your life so that the liver can regenerate. It takes months, if not years, depending on the advanced state of fatty liver disease.

Top tip to stop and reverse fatty liver disease

The research shows that the sugars, sucrose, and fructose, can aggressively advance fatty liver disease. So, avoid sucrose and fructose as much as you can. One study showed that individuals that eat more sucrose and fructose had a 115% higher rate of developing fatty liver disease. Avoid fast foods because they are laden with sucrose and fructose, and always read food labels.

 

Remember the documentary “Super Size Me” by Morgan Spurlock? He basically ate nothing but fast food for 30 days. That contains enormous amounts of sucrose and fructose. He had higher liver enzymes, ALT, AST, and his fatty liver disease progressed substantially. Multiple studies have shown that if you reduce your intake of sucrose and fructose, your liver has a better ability to repair itself. This is assuming that you’re doing your best with avoiding medications, abstaining from alcohol, and implementing positive lifestyle strategies. But the number one tip is try to limit sucrose and fructose. Cook at home more and enjoy meals with your family because you will have substantially lower levels of sucrose and fructose.

We’ve also created a supplement called Zenith Detox that helps the liver detoxify. It helps to repair and rejuvenate the liver. Check that out for sure.

We all know that the foods we eat affect us on the inside, as well as the outside. But did you know that there are certain foods that will make you feel and look older? There are five foods groups that have various mechanisms that actually change how you age. We’ll be giving you a little insight to each of them here.

5 Foods You Should NEVER Eat

1. Refined grains

Refined grains include anything made from white flour: baked goods, pastries, breads etc. These refined grains can spike insulin levels, which is a pro-inflammatory hormone that can cause devastation to both how you look and what’s going on inside of your body. So, avoid refined grains as much as possible.

 

 

2. Fried or charred foods

Fried or charred foods are responsible for something called AGE, or advanced glycosylated end products, which are responsible for binding up tissues and cells that make things internally stiffer and causes aging. Avoid anything fried or charred at any cost.

 

 

3. Sodas and juices

Sodas and juices are basically just sugar that spikes insulin levels, changes growth hormone levels and cortisol levels, and hormonally make you age at a much more rapid pace. Sodas and juices should be avoided wherever possible. They can be easily replaced with water or natural teas.

 

 

4. Anything in a box or bag

Now, this is a big food group. Imagine yourself walking through a market or a grocery store, going through the middle aisles, and seeing all of those boxes and bags. They’re full of ingredients that if you read them, you cannot (oftentimes) pronounce them. Those ingredients are associated with aging. They’re also typically very high in trans fats and partially hydrogenated oils. Trans fats and partially hydrogenated oils are preservatives to keep these foods on the shelves, but they age you. The body cannot process them in way that is healthful, so you should try to shop on the periphery of the grocery stores. Get fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, meats, cheeses, and avoid things in boxes and bags.

5. Seafood

Number five comes with a caveat. It’s seafood. You have to be very mindful about how you choose your seafood. Wild Alaskan salmon is wonderfully effective to slow down the aging process, but if you choose certain seafoods that are laden and loaded with high mercury, cadmium, and arsenic levels, then you change the metabolism of your cells and mitochondria which affects how you age. Watch out for seafood that is high in mercury and other heavy metals, and be especially cautious about shrimp and salmon. Avoid bigger fish like swordfish, shark, and king mackerel. Because these fish are in the higher echelon of the ocean food chain, this means that they ingest all the heavy metals that the smaller fish (aka their prey) eat.

These are the five food groups that you should avoid, or consume with caution. These are the food groups that will affect how you age, and make you look and feel older.

I encourage you to share this with your friends and your loved ones, because I believe in the original meaning of the word doctor, docēre, which is a teacher.

So I post videos each and every week to make sure that you have the tools and the information that you need to live healthy and to live optimally well.

Thanks so much. I’m Dr. Ryan Shelton.

 

 

 

 

Who says facial treatments have to be expensive? We’ll explore the benefits of you making homemade anti-aging facial peels that will help you smoothen fine lines and wrinkles. Get started and use it consistently!

 

Cosmeceutical companies make peels and creams that are purported to make you look younger. However, we’ve found that most of the powerful ingredients in these products can be made at home.

You don’t have to spend $90 or more per bottle to have the benefits of facial peels.

There are two main components in these facial peels: alpha and beta hydroxy acids. They’re exfoliants that help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. They also reduce dark spots on the skin, which will help you look and feel younger. They should be used every single day for the best effects. These ingredients are wallet-friendly and cheaper than most of the facial products out there. To top it all off, they work just as well, or even better than, your off-the-shelf cosmetic products.

 

Alpha Hydroxy Acids Facial Peel

Alpha hydroxy acids uncover healthier skin beneath your older skin, and help younger cells come to the surface. The alpha facial peel is quite simple to make:

• ¼ cup of fine cane sugar
• ¼ cup of plain yogurt
• 1 egg white mixed with 2 tsp of water
• ¼ cup fine cane sugar

Whisk all the ingredients in bowl. It should become a slightly granulated paste. Apply this to your face, neck, and forehead. Try not to get too close to the eyes as it can be irritating. Wait 10-15 minutes for the peel to work on your skin. You can choose to scrub your skin and exfoliate. Then, use cotton balls or a washcloth to gently wipe the mixture off your face, or wash it off with cool water.

Beta Hydroxy Acids Facial Peel

Beta hydroxy acid peels should be used every day after you’ve done your alpha peels. Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1 tbsp baking soda
• ¼ cup of water
• 10 uncoated aspirin (crushed)
• 4-5 drops fresh lemon juice

Dissolve the baking soda with water. Crush up the aspirin and add it to the baking soda mixture. Add the lemon juice to activate the baking soda and aspirin. The mixture should be a fine paste. Apply it all over your face, forehead, cheeks, neck, and around the eyes (be careful not to get too close). Allow it to set for 10-15 minutes. Then, use a cotton ball or just cool water to wash it off.

Facial Peel for Sensitive Skin

If your skin is more sensitive, you can still make a facial peel suitable for you. All you need are two ingredients: green tea, and cucumber. Make a cup of green tea and let it cool to room temperature. Peel half a cucumber, and put it in a blender along with the cooled tea. Blend it up and apply it to your skin. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes before removing.

 

 

These facial peels are effective and extremely cheap compared to some other products that are on the market. Make sure that you moisturize your face after the alpha and beta facial peels as they are exfoliating.

You’ll look younger, you’ll feel younger, and that is what is exciting. I believe in the original meaning of the word doctor, ‘docere’, which means teacher.

So, I’m here several times a week to help educate you on how to take care of yourself in ways that you may not have heard before, but they’re effective.

I want your feedback, I want your ideas, I want you to share this with your friends and loved ones. I want you to hit the bell and subscribe to this channel, so that you make sure that every week you’re tuning in to learn new tools in health and wellness.
