You must first establish a strong foundation of health. The cornerstones of optimal health must be established and maintained to optimize physical and emotional wellbeing, build a strong immune system, and maintain a healthy body composition.
What are the foundation stones of health?
(This list is not exhaustive)
– You must maintain an optimized nutrient status – amino acids, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, other micronutrients, hydration, phytonutrients, calories (note that calories come last for adults)
– You must prioritize your circadian biology (biological clock system) and get sufficient sleep
– You must move your body and engage in consistent exercise (preferably strength training).
– You must balance your overall stress environment so that you maintain a balanced nervous system
– You must optimize your environment so that it supports your health rather than erodes it
