Food is information that controls your gene expression, hormones, and metabolism. When you eat the right foods, you balance blood sugar, restore hormonal balance, and reduce stress’s damaging impact.

[Frank Lipman MD @DrFrankLipman]

To stay well, the non-negotiables are good sleep, frequent movement and stress reduction – but they’re not the whole picture. The 4th foundational pillar of good health is your food. Think fresh, whole foods, either farmer’s market or organic (or both) to get the best quality.

The more studies I read about the profound impact vitamin D has on our health, the more crucial I think it is to know your levels. A recent observational study found that aging men who had insufficient levels of vitamin D had a higher mortality risk.

While I appreciate the concern of getting too much sun, and there is reason to be careful, that’s not to say your skin should never see the light of day. In fact, your body, like most living things, actually needs sun to survive and thrive.

Stop measuring days by degree of productivity and start experiencing by degree of presence. - Alan Watts

If being a leader isn't costing you anything (comfort, fear, popularity) --you aren't a leader.

Having 12oz of high quality coffee first thing in the morning can be extremely beneficial, however having coffee and caffeine later in the day can alter hormones and add extra stress on the adrenal glands.

[Frank Lipman MD @DrFrankLipman]

When your bacterial community is in balance, your gut wall is strong, intact, and it’s all systems go. But, when it’s out of balance, and you have too many bacteria making pro-inflammatory metabolites rather than anti-inflammatory ones, that’s when the problems start.

Teas to Help Combat Inflammation

[Mark Hyman, M.D. @drmarkhyman]

Are you getting enough fiber into your diet? You need fiber to keep healthy from top to bottom, as well as to provide food for the healthy bacteria that work within you to promote health.

[Frank Lipman MD @DrFrankLipman]

Hormesis is a biological phenomenon in which low-level exposure to small stressors actually creates an adaptive, beneficial physiological response. It’s a controlled way of pushing your body just a bit beyond its comfort zone, cueing it to recover and repair.

#Magnesium is often referred to as the “relaxation” mineral, thanks to its demonstrated ability to combat insomnia. You can always take a magnesium supplement or try taking a warm Epsom salt bath. #health #wellness #sleep
