Dr. Kien Vuu starts his TEDxTalk with a sobering statistic:
50% of the people in the United States have a chronic disease (like high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, arthritis, obesity).
25% of the people in this country have multiple chronic diseases.
As a country, we have never spent more on healthcare, and we have never been sicker.
That’s the bad news.
The worse news is the majority of these chronic diseases are caused by our own lifestyle choices around things like sleep, nutrition, movement, stress, relationships and purpose (or lack thereof).
The great news is these chronic diseases are caused by our own lifestyle choices.
Which means you have the ultimate authority to move your body’s biology from stress/survival state to thrive state.
Dr. Kien Vuu has walked the walk. 5 years ago he found himself in a chronic survival state, being overweight, hypertension, diabetes and on multiple prescriptions.
In a period of 4-6 months, using the approach he outlines today, he was able to dramatically shift his state of being from survive to thrive.
Who is Dr Kien Vuu:
- He’s a sought after medical doctor specializing in peak performance, human optimization and longevity
- Instead of helping his patients deal with chronic illnesses, which is where spent the majority of his career as the chief interventional radiologist at his hospital, he helps his patients focus on achieving chronic states of well being, or Thrive States
- He’s the author of Thrive State: Your blueprint for optimal health, longevity and peak performance
In this episode:
- The important distinction between acute and chronic diseases
- The 7 pillars that make up your Bioenergetic State, which is the frequency/vibration that is broadcast to your cells that tells them whether you are in survival or thrive state
- A beginner’s guide to the microbiome and an at home test recommendation
- A beginner’s guide to epigenetics
- How identical twins, with the same genetic markers can experience vastly different states of well-being, all tracing back to these lifestyle choices
- And Byran shares the recipe of his morning well-being drink, which he calls The Shot of Terrible-ness
