I'm going to share the lessons that changed my life, although it took me 30 years to learn them. Learn from my mistakes to avoid years of misery!

1. 100 vitamins a day

I thought that the solution to chronic fatigue syndrome, severe insomnia, arthritis, and other chronic illnesses was to just take more supplements. Vitamins and supplements will only be effective if you also maintain a healthy diet.

2. Colon detox

A colon detox also flushes out good bacteria and electrolytes, and often involves juice. You shouldn’t do any cleanse or fasting program that involves juice, as the body can’t get into ketosis because of the sugar. Herbal detoxes release toxicity, which creates an immune reaction, leaving you sick for weeks. Get on the right eating plan, focusing on animal protein, vegetables, and probiotics for better gut health.

3. I’ll eat healthy when I graduate

In college, I was living on carbs, drinking strong coffee, and feeling tired all the time. Much of this fatigue was just due to blood sugar fluctuations. I eventually discovered the healthy version of the ketogenic diet, which turned things around.

4. Right shoulder pain

Right shoulder pain is almost always caused by referred pain from the liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts.

5. Disregarding intermittent fasting

Snacking and frequent eating keep your insulin high. Our bodies were not designed to graze! Intermittent fasting is one of the top health tips that changed my life! I immediately lost weight and inflammation.

6. Kale shakes

Kale shakes are okay, but excess fiber isn’t always the best option for gut health.

7. Magnesium deficiency

Magnesium can help prevent kidney stones and muscle spasms, and also supports a good night's sleep.
