Everything you are…every cell in your body…at one time, was the food you put in your mouth.
Think about that for a moment. Your food choices dictate the quality of your cells!
If you choose McDonald’s food, you become McDonald’s food. If you choose organic vegetables, you become, at some point, organic vegetable and all the great health benefits that affords.
Trust me….I’m as guilty as anybody (This is Dr. Josh speaking!). On March 16, 2024 I was 241 lbs and struggling. I was dealing with high blood pressure (152/92), elevated resting pulse (104), swelling in my legs from an obscure injury while training Judo and overall, not feeling well. I was heavy (size 48 jacket with 40″ pants) out of shape (my good friend, Mike Ellefson Sensei, would tell me (I’m sure), “don’t be so hard on yourself. Round is a shape!” He’s not wrong in this case.
Sometimes, we have to push off the bottom before we make real change. I did just that. As of July 8, 2024, I weigh 197lbs. My waist size is 34″; Jacket is a 44. My strength has increased, my sleep is better, my blood pressure is sitting at 132/62 with a resting pulse of 59.
What did I do?
It’s a long story but it all starts with proper nutrition and a healthy nerve system. Other “new” habits formed include: Daily exercise including cardio/weights/battle ropes/bike/balance/core work, infrared sauna 5-6 days/week and increased water consumption. The 21 day detox (Standard Process) was a great jumping point for me.
Knowing how to eat (and what NOT to eat) to allow the full expression of your innate, or inborn intelligence, is vitally important to a fully functioning nerve system. It can not be stressed enough that if your health is to improve, you must feed it well!
