Episode notes

Exploring the personal health odyssey of a young individual overcoming degenerative bone and disc disease, who, through a transformative realization about health and nutrition, embarks on a path of self-healing amidst the challenges of conventional nutrition education influenced by industry standards.

After being diagnosed with degenerative bone disease at 20, Shawn Stevenson began aggressively researching how to heal himself, discovering the monumental impact food, movement, and sleep have on health. Stevenson started eating radically cleaner, gently exercising, and allowing his body to dictate natural sleep rhythms, which catalyzed rapid weight and pain loss while reversing much of his "incurable" spinal degeneration. He stresses that the decision to truly get well sparks a journey of asking the right questions to uncover solutions, taking personal responsibility through lifestyle shifts rather than blaming genetics, and trusting your body's innate healing abilities once provided the proper building blocks through nutrition and lifestyle. Stevenson is living proof that what we put in our mouths directly correlates to what happens to our overall health, so we must get clear on what our tissues actually need, then work with rather than against the body's self-corrective nature.
