Thanks for sharing this! It’s interesting you talk about how meticulous you are about maintaining your health. I lost my health at a relatively young age and am now faced with losing what’s left of my independence - and it’s very difficult as private care is incredibly expensive and there’s really no place for someone like me to go.

I want to help people realize the VALUE of their health and independence… because you can lose them at any time. They’re worth trying to protect and hold on to.

You are absolutely right - good health is the most precious thing there is. I'm preparing a short series on what we actually eat. It may be of some use to you, but sadly diet cannot fix everything. Wishing you the best.

Hey Jim! I actually spent a few years researching diet and made a huge amount of changes - it did help a ton. I’m writing about it as well because one of the conditions I have is Mast Cell Activation Syndrome which unfortunately limits a lot of ‘healthy’ foods that I used to rely on to keep my inflammation down. It’s a beast to manage.

As you said - diet can’t fix everything. That said I firmly believe that having a healthy diet with a focus on reducing inflammation will HELP just about everything - even if it can’t FIX.

I look forward to reading your article!

"This post makes the point that the word cure is no longer mentioned in modern medicine. Diseases are managed. Never mind that there is solid evidence that type 2 diabetes can be reversed, and even cancer can be put into remission by adopting a low carbohydrate, high fat diet."

This is a huge tragedy that even doctors seem to be totally unaware and clueless much of th time, even though the information is right there!
