It’s no surprise we are seeing things like studies done on Herbalife and their products with scary findings.

The most recent, linked the use of Herbalife to liver failure and found traces of heavy metals, toxic compounds and pathogenic bacteria.

Now, I don’t think the ‘original’ idea of the founder was for it to end up this way.

Yet, it has.

When I consider the health industry, I actually right now see it as a ‘reactive’ industry.

A study (whether good or rubbish) is released implicating a certain food – then the next week there are ‘supplements’ to help.

It’s a crazy scenario in my brain!!

Yet with all this reactivity, things are getting worse.

Lifetime expectancy went DOWN for the first time in our modern world.

With all this money we spend on ‘research’ for things like heart disease, cancer and such like…

You would think we are getting closer.

Truth is, we are not as the answer is very much under our own noses.

Yes, you are born with genes, you inherit many things from parents.

Ladies can thank mothers for their little cellular batteries (mitochondria) which dictate your energy and so on.

Yet this is a TINY piece of the puzzle.

You could argue I got the dregs of the gene pool.

Born with spinal deformation, HLA genes that triggered to set off an autoimmune disease…

A brain tumour.

You’d think I’d have a right to moan, right?!

Yet, here I am 10 years free of ANY and all illness.

How so? Firstly.

I spent 10 years, studying, researching and applying changes to my life.

From my mind to my body.

I pride myself on going pretty deep.

Those that get me speaking on health can attest!

But I haven’t to date found a ‘quick’ way to restore years of poor choices and believe me I’ve tried them all.

From shake diets to apple diets to cabbage soup diets to fasting etc

Yet let’s be honest NONE of them are set up to be long term.

What I teach is not a ‘fix’ it’s the fundamentals of health at a biochemical and cellular level.

Do all the ‘lymphatic drainage’ you want or ‘fix’ the digestive system or try to balance hormones…

Yet understand this…

A system is made up of organs, organs are made up of tissues and tissues are made up of cells.

Trillions of cells.

If we do not know what is creating imbalance in the cells, it’s all reactive work.T

ake bruising easily – we can easily point to Vit C deficiency.

So you take a few grams a day over a month.

What if it doesn’t get better?

Or what if it does but when you come off the supplement, it comes back.

Have you learnt anything? No.

My view is to understand why a deficient pathways would occur.

That’s where

• Environment
• Food
• Deficiencies
• Genetics
• Sleep
• Stress
• Radiation

To name a few have to be assessed!

It’s a little rant but you might learn something about your own health and body…

Today, I sat down with a big, strong dude, who on the outside looks fine.

Yet, he reached out to me after hearing about the work I have done with others on their health.

I asked him to describe what was happening for him and what he has done to date to remedy it.

The smile dropped from his face as he started to recall where all this started 5 years ago.

Some simple nerve pain in his face, progressed to issues with nerves in his hands and feet.

After MRI which was inconclusive, they mentioned a lesion in the brain, which could signify MS.

That’s just standard conventional medicine, of which I don’t have the beef with.

He intuitively knew the tests and drugs they were offering in the conventional realm were silly, masking a deeper issue.

So he started to research and look on forums for answers to the symptoms he faced.

During this time, symptoms were progressing and anxiety and panic were added to the list of issues faced.

Over the years he had countless blood tests, with practitioners telling him he had all sorts of issues…

From lyme disease and co-infections to neurological disorders.

He spent thousands on consulting, tests and supplements but sat in front of me feeling worse than he has since the start of all this.

So much so, thinking he wanted to just give up.

So why does the health & wellness industry suck most of the time?

They FAIL over and over to treat someone as an individual.

Most just see someone as a set of symptoms and protocols.

Telling the person that THIS test will solve it all for you.

IT’S BULLSHIT.

It’s the reason I don’t specialise in a single area, it creates too many biases.

Honestly, I could bitch and moan hugely about how he has been failed but it’s pointless, I’d rather just help him feel better.

And here’s how that will happen.

1. Full case history.

Just in our chat today we identified events and triggers he hadn’t considered or been asked about.

That gives us a greater picture to work with.

2. We overview all past tests to see the patterns that emerge and what is relevant to his personal picture to get better.

Most blood tests are rubbish sadly, thus it takes much better quality tests / labs to ensure accurate answers.

3. We work top down.

It doesn’t matter of you have a parasite, a neurological disease or other, until you can get the system of the body firing, you’ll never heal anything long term.

You’ll forever be relying on supplements and restrictive diets to feel better short term.

4. We optimise the mind and body.

Everyone has junk in their mind, emotions they haven’t dealt with and stress that can overwhelm.

If you don’t acknowledge the role of the mind in the health of the physical body, it’s destined to fail.

5. Always review progress.

Even in the WORST cases there should be improvements within 3 weeks. This doesn’t mean total reversal, it means change.

That change might be better energy, waking up feeling better or simply feeling less shit.

Yet if there is no change, good or bad. Something is being missed.

So, if you are reading this and feel on a hamster wheel of health issues, struggling with your emotions or life.

Don’t be afraid to ask questions of the people that help you.

It’s imperative that you are seeing the roadmap of where you are going and how progress is being met.

If you have had testing, stuck to the diet, taken the supplements and still no change.

The answer ISN’T more testing.

The answer is to ask, WHAT are we missing from the foundations.

Some foundations are :

Circadian Rhythm
Sleep
Blood Glucose Management
Emotional Stress

If you run to supplements, testing and protocols without doing the above FIRST,

It’s a place of frustration,

Just like the new client that saw me today.

As ever, if you are frustrated, stuck, ready to finally have answers and be free of struggle and pain.

I’m here.
