Another pearl of wisdom from Dr Mark Hyman ❤️
I often recommend this to my clients. 🏃‍♀️ 🌿 🌳 ❤️🌱

Exercise is a great way to activate all the pathways for longevity and health.

You can't exercise your weight out of a bad diet, but it can be a critical step to building muscle, building cardiovascular fitness, and regulating insulin.

Just start with something if you're doing nothing. If you’re already incorporating daily movement, you can try out something like high-intensity interval training. You can also strength train, which helps maintain and build muscle for longevity.

A mix of light or short cardio and strength can be a powerful duo for staying healthy, which I’ve written extensively about in my book, Young Forever.

I personally lift three times a week for at least thirty minutes. Additionally, I love to go on hikes, go on bike rides, and practice yoga. How do you like to move?

It’s as simple as that!! 🌿☀️🪴🌱

Everyone who has had a sore throat, rash, hives, or a sprained ankle knows about inflammation. Those are normal appropriate responses of our defense system to infection or trauma. We need inflammation to survive.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
The trouble occurs when that defense system runs out of control, like a rebel army bent on destroying its own country. Most people are familiar with overactive immune responses and too much inflammation in common conditions like allergies, rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune disease or asthma. But few people know that hidden inflammation run amok is at the root of all chronic illness: heart disease, obesity, diabetes, dementia, depression, cancer and even autism.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
We may feel healthy, but if this inflammation is raging inside of us, then we have a problem.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
So what is the best way to control inflammation while we’re still upstream? First, identify the triggers and causes of inflammation, and then help the body’s natural immune balance reset by providing the right conditions for it to thrive.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Everyone is treating the downstream effects of inflammation, instead of addressing the cause: multiple problems that are really linked together by inflammation.⁣⁣⁣
⁣
If you feel like you’re still having issues, work with a Functional Medicine doctor near you. You can find one at ifm.org/find-a-practitioner.⁣

Cooking is your way out of sickness, and your path to freedom from processed food and towards vibrant health and a happier life. ⁣
⁣
When we cook, we not only nourish our bodies and souls, but we also rebuild our communities, strengthen the bonds within our families and it’s fun! ⁣
⁣
What will you be cooking tonight?⁣

Love Dr Hyman!! ❤️🌱🌿🌻

The foundation of health and longevity is diet.

You can exercise and meditate and sleep and take all the supplements in the world, but unless you focus on high-quality, nutrient-dense, whole foods personalized to your own needs and preferences, you will not achieve health or longevity.

Focus on food as medicine. Food is the most powerful drug on the planet. It is always the place to start; it works anytime, for anyone, at any age.

Upgrade your diet and biological software with each bite. Your fork is the most powerful tool you have to change your health and your life. Use it wisely.
