The Freedom to Live 5 things Friday
Every Friday, 5 things of value from the integrative health sciences.
The best of the best functional medicine, educational resources, research, quotes, books, tips, advice etc. all from the key pillars of the integrative health system.
1. Symptoms are Messages: How I rebalanced the subtle hints of Cancer, Hair Loss, and More.
2. Everything works in: Foundations and Levels
Last week when I spoke about the B-Complex, I mentioned that not all vitamins are manufactured equally. Certain brands, in the big-box retail market, typically use the inexpensive and synthetic forms which are not easily absorbed or converted properly.
The CanPrev brand is a good solid retail brand that uses bioavailable or activated forms. The brand is formulated by naturopathic doctors and is both affordable and becoming more available in everyday retail experiences.
For level 1 and 2 foundations, these are great options. However, for more specialized health rebalancing protocols, it's important to speak with a practitioner who can guide you down the right path and align you to the right protocols for you.
3. Plant-Centric: Just eat lots of plants!
Whichever you call it; centre it around plants!

Exercise: 007 style!
During one of my workouts last week, I was reviewing an old audio course, IMPACT by Matthew Hussey. And here's what he was saying:
After the last Daniel Craig Bond movie, guess what the #1 google search was?
Daniel Craig body.
Now everyone's looking to get the workout that gets the Daniel Craig body.
But here's what people are missing.
The body isn't the important factor, it's the WAY that person wears the body and plays the role.
People get it backwards, they want to be like that person, so they go out and get the clothes, hair, and body. But the reason people love the clothes, hair, body etc. is because of that person.
If a different person was wearing those same clothes, hair, body etc. they wouldn't emulate.
So the moral of the story is: Focus on being a great person with a great body, style, and of course HEALTH!
