Food is fuel.

Food is essential.

Not quite mid-August. Let the Halloween festivities begin.

Scary when you think about it.

Think about what?

Becoming so physically inactive you can’t remember what it feels like to be physically vibrant.

Even scarier, to be okay with this for the rest of your life.

Vitamins as medicine

One of your excellent accomplishments can be to have as few prescriptions as possible. i have two vitamins, and monthly allergy shots prescribed. That’s it.

If you have an incurable disease, you will likely have prescribed meds.

Here are Dr jeff’s self-prescribed “not-over-the-counter” prescriptions:

  1. Mind
  2. Body
  3. Spirit
  4. Work
  5. Home

More specifically…

  1. Read, watch, listen, and create nothing but positive, growth mindset material
  2. Do rigorous cardio and strength exercises, rest and fuel well
  3. Use gratitude, forgiveness, surrender, and compassion for peace and contentment
  4. Live within your means and do work where you get-to-do more than you have-to-do
  5. Prioritize your priorities and let your life be your message
