Let’s talk about how to relieve muscle stiffness and increase your range of motion. Many of us have been taught to stretch by holding a position for 30 to 60 seconds—this is called static stretching. But this is the worst way to stretch your muscles. Tight muscles are weaker and are more susceptible to injury and inflammation. When you stretch incorrectly, you can easily strain or pull a muscle. Motion is all about the coordination of contraction and relaxation of the muscles. One of the best ways to stretch is a method from a book called The Whartons’ Complete Strength Book, and it’s called Active Isolated Flexibility. How to stretch correctly (using Active Isolated Flexibility): 1. Identify the muscle you want to stretch 2. Contract or tighten the opposite muscle as you stretch 3. Stretch to a comfortable limit and hold for two seconds and then relax Repeat this method of stretching eight to ten times per muscle. This would be a great warm-up before you exercise. You may also want to consider a version of this as part of the rehab process for a less severe injury.

This is Not Designed for Human Consumption

Why is junk food so addicting? Let me explain why you can’t resist junk food, why you should stop eating junk food, and how to easily identify toxic foods with my new app. Find out which foods to avoid so you don’t fall victim to the obesity epidemic! Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: Is junk food bad for you? 0:40 Junk food addiction 1:33 Why you can't resist junk food 2:49 The new Dr. Berg app! 3:33 Toxic foods to avoid 5:39 Lab-based meats My free app helps you identify toxic foods. By scanning the barcode, the Dr. Berg app will tell you how much sugar, starch, and seed oils are in a product. To make a profit, food companies must create an irresistible product that never leaves you fully satisfied so you will continue eating it. Food scientists work to create the perfect combination of sugar, starch, seed oils, salt, and flavoring to create maximum pleasure, also known as the bliss point. Artificial flavor chemicals are very different from natural flavor chemicals and are 300 times more intense! When you repeatedly consume these chemicals, you can develop dopamine resistance. Junk food is devoid of nutritional value and lacks protein. Junk foods are not food in the true sense of the word. Food is defined as something that gives you energy and helps you sustain life, something junk food can't do. Here is a list of some of the worst junk foods. Avoid these foods! 1. BBQ chips 2. Cheese pop 3. Plant-based meat 4. Fast food 5. Artificial maple syrup 6. Extra virgin olive oil 7. Imitation crab 8. Cheese products 9. Artificial sweeteners 10. Artificial honey 11. Plant-based milk Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 59, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Start consuming the best foods for your eyes—they're easy to include in your diet! DATA: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8300367/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3740325/ Video on Grass-Fed Beef Study: ▶️ https://youtu.be/fSgmqsl3Twk 0:00 Introduction: How to support your eyes 0:10 Eye health explained 2:04 The most important nutrient for the eyes 3:35 Carotenoids for the eyes 4:05 What to eat for healthy eyes 6:19 Learn more about the best ways to support the eyes! Today I want to cover the best foods for the eyes. Your eyes are highly complex, and it's important to support them to help avoid vision problems and other issues. The most important nutrient for the eyes is DHA, which is an omega-3 fatty acid. DHA has many important functions and protects against macular degeneration and inflammation. It also inhibits the formation of extra blood vessels in the eyes that could affect vision. DHA is destroyed by blue light, UV light, and omega-6 fatty acids. Carotenoids are also very protective for the eyes, specifically lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin. The best foods to support the eyes: • Oily cold-water fish (bluefin tuna, salmon, herring, cod liver, cod liver oil, oysters, and sardines) • Grass-fed beef • Pasture-raised, organic egg yolks • Walnuts • Chia seeds • Flax seeds • Dark leafy green vegetables • Shrimp It's also crucial to avoid omega-6 fatty acids and sugar to support healthy eyes.
