Key Takeaways:

Hormones are messengers and signals that float around the body. What the endocrine system does is it sends out these messengers, and wherever there’s a receptor for that hormone, you get an effect.
Hormones are incredibly important when it comes to bone density.
If you’re stressed out all the time, this idea of balance between good bacteria and bad bacteria goes out of whack.
As far as nourishment goes, you need to eat the right combination of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. And those ratios are really critical in terms of producing energy.
Whether or not to take bio-identical hormones might depend on how old you are. People who are really old generally feel much better and function better if they’re taking bio-identical hormones.
The general principles of health-building involve corrective diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, and supplementation.

Action Steps:

Don’t just cram down a bunch of supplements. Rather, make sure you don’t get exposed to the virus that’s going around.
Build a good, strong resistance to things. This boils down to being healthy.
Eat right. In other words, eat good, nutritious food.

Reed said:

“If you lived yourself into trouble -- you ate yourself into it, you lacked-of-sleep yourself into it, stressed yourself into it -- then you can reverse that every step of the way. You just need someone with a system to follow.”

“A sense of wellbeing should go along with being well-nourished. It should nourish your brain as well.”
