Eat Only Nutrient Dense Whole Foods
It is imperative for optimal health that you eat REAL food and nutrient-dense real whole foods.
When you eat processed and or ultra-processed foods, it will take far more calories to obtain 100% of your nutrients in a day, or you may never reach this goal.
There are also studies that have shown that an ultra-processed, nutrient-poor diet, is linked to changes in behavior and even acts of violence.
As shown in the chart below our caloric intake has increased since 1961 as has obesity rates. Charts supplied by oneworlddata.org.
More than half the calories Americans consume now come from ultra-processed foods.
I am going to show you that by eating a nutrient-dense diet you can eat far fewer calories and drop fat fast!

I'm not sure living forever interests me, but I certainly want to live long enough to see the world, preferably on foot, and to see the vision of the world I want for my Grandchildren and their peers come to fruition. I am on a mission to create optimal health in myself and share what I learn with the world, so together, we can live long and prosper!
