Learn the Secrets of What Longest Living & Healthiest People Do & Don’t Do
This week’s video is on the ten major causes of death in the US and four behaviors that might just help you live longer.
The backdrop of “pushing up daisies” was just a coincidence. LOL.
The “EPIC” ( European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition–Potsdam Study ) study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine studied 23,153 people’s adherence to 4 simple behaviors:
In those adhering to these behaviors, 93% of diabetes, 81% of heart attacks, 50% of strokes, and 36% of all cancers were prevented. (2)

This week’s blog is about the dangers of sitting too much.
The other day I spent some time in the woods with a good
friend, Charlie Fritz. He told me he enjoyed watching these
videos but asked if I could include some action in the videos
rather than just standing or sitting. Sounded like a good
idea to me, Charlie. So this week’s video is an easy way
to turn your treadmill into a standing, treadmill desk.
My total cost to transform my treadmill into a treadmill
desk was…drum roll please… ZERO. See how this was done in the video.
Dr. James Rouse recently did a post on how we are now spending
90%+ of our time indoors and the associated effects. Conversely, James
explains how getting outdoors for as little as seven minutes
a day had tremendous benefits and some great insights on the
effects of being outdoors on depression. It is clearly worth
listening to Dr. James’s video post { Click Here } .
After Charlie suggested I incorporate some movement I saw Dr. Greger’s
video on Standing Up For Your Health. Amazing benefits in standing.

This week’s video is a chance for me to says Thanks!

I injured myself during a bike ride a few weeks ago
and Dr. Stephen A. Black did his magic once again.

In this short video I talk about how Steve was able to help
alleviate my pain almost instantly. Steve not only helped
me with my injury but reinforced the power of a team
in accomplishing your goals.

In 2009 three scientists won the Nobel Prize for their work on telomeres. Their work was groundbreaking science on understanding aging and longevity

My video this week explains what telomeres are and what you need to know about their effect on longevity.
When it comes to nutrition and what we eat many of us think we have to be perfect. I saw a video this week I wanted to share with you. The bottom line is it is about Progress NOT Perfection! Most of the time perfection equals paralysis.
If you don’t want to, or think you can’t go Vegan or Vegetarian, what does the science say if you just ate less meat! Dr. Greger’s video answered just that question. Enjoy!

Been battling a bit of a cold this week but in the scheme of adversities it is incredibly minuscule.
But it does remind me that the journey is about progress not perfection. And perfection usually equals paralysis.
Absolutely fascinating TED talk. Professor Wendy Suzuki shows aerobic exercise actually grows the brain – literally grows it larger – increases memory, learning and possibly creativity!
Memorial Day is the unofficial start of summer but watch that sun.
