✨ Did you know that lithium—a trace mineral naturally found in some mineral waters—may hold the key to protecting our brains and even reversing memory decline?

Harvard researchers just shared groundbreaking findings showing that lithium deficiency could be one of the earliest triggers for Alzheimer’s disease. Even more amazing: in studies with mice, lithium orotate actually reversed signs of brain aging and memory loss. 🧠💡

This is why I’ve long believed that bioavailable lithium should be considered an essential nutrient. My personal favorite source is Crazy Water #4 from Mineral Wells, TX, which is naturally rich in lithium. Second to that, I recommend lithium orotate as a supportive option.

That’s also why I created “Great Minds Mushrooms with Lithium Orotate”—to provide my clinic and doctors across the country with a powerful, natural tool for supporting cognitive health. 🌿🍄

We don’t have to accept cognitive decline as inevitable. Prevention, nourishment, and smart choices make all the difference.

Let’s spread the hope and knowledge—because great minds truly deserve to thrive! ✨

🌞 Sunlight is Healing — and It’s Time We Talk About It

At Strong On Health, we share a lot of books with our clients—and one of Dustin Strong’s all-time favorites is:

Light: Medicine of the Future by Dr. Jacob Liberman.

This groundbreaking book challenges the modern myth that the sun is harmful. Instead, it reveals how our indoor lifestyles, sunglasses, fluorescent lights, and sunblock-overuse may be doing more damage than good.

📚 Dr. Liberman helped over 15,000 people—including Olympic athletes and trauma survivors—using the healing power of light to support:
✨ Cancer recovery
✨ Depression and anxiety
✨ Visual problems
✨ Hormonal balance
✨ Immune function
✨ Stress and fatigue
✨ Even learning disabilities and sexual dysfunction

Now, 30 years later, Dr. Roger Seheult is reaffirming this truth with powerful modern science.

In a recent interview, he shared that:

🌅 Just 2 minutes of morning sunlight can increase dopamine by up to 250%
🧬 Sunlight boosts mitochondrial function, energy, and immune health
💤 Circadian rhythm and sleep are directly improved by daily light exposure
🫀 And yes—low vitamin D + high cholesterol may simply reflect sunlight deficiency

☀️ This is why we now ask every client:

“Are you getting at least 15 minutes of sunlight daily?”

It’s not just a nice idea—it’s a healing strategy.

We’re more inspired than ever to share what inspires us.
Join the movement. Make space for sunlight. Heal at the source. 🌿



🌿 Here’s your self‑care prompt for today:

Get at least 15 minutes of outdoor sunlight—ideally in the morning.

It’s free, natural medicine.

Want to build this into your routine or pair it with infrared/red light sessions?

Carla at Premier Yoga & Fitness has been helping Dustin Strong, Holistic Nutritionist & Wellness Specialist get his mitochondrial fix with his weekly Wednesday ritual to start his day in her infrared sauna at the studio, but he still shoots for that minimum 15 minutes of the real thing.

Sounds like a good start—we’re here to help you find yours.

🛒 Weekend Grocery Tip for Living Longer & Thriving 🫘

When clients come to Strong On Health, one of the first questions we ask is:

“How many days a week are you eating beans?”

Why? Because the WHO found that eating just 20g of beans a day (that's about 2 tablespoons!) can reduce your risk of dying in the next year by 8%.

That’s powerful—and accessible—knowledge we all deserve.

As you do your grocery run this weekend, consider making beans a pantry staple. They're not only nutrient-dense, fiber-rich, and affordable—they're also delicious in so many ways.

🌱 Need some inspiration? Check out this great article from Blue Zones with 5 delicious ways to eat a cup of beans each day:

Let’s reclaim our birthright of vitality—one bean at a time. 💪✨
