Happy Sunday, my fellow healthy living nut.
As I'm prepping for my next virtual BYOG Party in less than 2 weeks, I've been reminded of amazing research about the spine and posture.
Remember, this BYOG Party is all about how to upgrade your posture and spinal health, which is especially crucial as we age.
In my email two days ago, I mentioned little-known facts about neck and back pain, such as causing the 2nd highest number of doctor's visits...
Aaaand being responsible for the most non-cancer related opioid prescriptions in the US.
You can imagine how much I love seeing that. (sarcasm)
Well, I'm confident you understand how neck and back pain can be directly related to your posture and spinal health.
But, did you know this research conclusion from way back in 2004 and 2005:
"Older men and women with hyperkyphotic posture have higher mortality rates."
"Hyperkyphotic posture" meaning an excessive rounding of the mid back curve with forward head posture and "slumped" appearance. (It's also usually accompanied by rounded shoulders.)
"Higher mortality rates" meaning they die earlier than those who don't have a hyperkyphotic posture...
... And it could be as much as 15 years earlier!!
If that's not shocking enough, here's another kicker:
Hyperkyphotic posture was specifically associated with an increased rate of death due to atherosclerosis. (Meaning, cardiovascular disease.)
To leave no doubt about what this means, allow me to put this together for you.
Yes, poor posture and spinal dysfunction not only causes chronic neck and back pain (and all the health and life issues that come with that).
Poor spinal health and posture is ALSO correlated with a shortened lifespan and cardiovascular disease!
Let that sink in.
So, I'm positive you see why my virtual BYOG Party on Wednesday, October 19th is so necessary.
You're highly encouraged to attend, especially if you have a spine and want to live a long, healthy, active life.
And, of course, Be Your Own Guarantee for your health, life, AND absolutely your spine.
Have a super Sunday, my friend.

Hi Jimi,
Every part of your body - from your brain to your heart - relies on hormones.
These "chemical messengers" are how our organs communicate with each other and they largely determine how you look, feel and function...
But the flow of hormones in your body is a very delicate dance. When hormonal activity is not in balance, a number of problems can arise, from disturbances such as poor sleep and weight gain to life-threatening diseases like cancer and heart disease.
The good news is that there are some easy natural steps you can take to rebalance your hormones (and also shed weight, boost your energy and nourish your brain health).
With that in mind, I've got something amazing to share with you...
In a few days, I'll be joining renowned natural hormone expert, Dr. Afrouz Demeri, for a worldwide webinar that we're calling Holistic Hormone Secrets. In this FREE talk, we'll be sharing some simple practices you can use to restore hormone balance and rejuvenate your body from head to toe.
Click here for full details and to sign up now
I can't tell you how excited we are for this! Together, Dr. Afrouz and I will examine a number of common hormone-related challenges and dive into some simple ways to heal these issues naturally.
In this webinar, you will learn:
Dr. Afrouz Demeri is considered to be one of the top hormone health experts in the world, and for good reason. After healing herself of a debilitating hormone-related illness in her twenties, she dedicated her entire career to understanding how this complex system within us works.
She is the former Director of Functional Medicine at University of California Irvine's Department of Medicine, is a sought after national speaker on hormone and reproductive health, and is regularly featured in major publications and documentaries.
Our goal behind this webinar is to give you a full body and mind reboot that will leave you feeling beautiful inside and out, turbo-energized and filled with inspiration.
This is something you don't want to miss!

How to Address Sinus Infections Naturally | |
Hey Jimi, Today I am joined by Evan to talk about a common problem– sinus infections. Sinus infections (also called sinusitis) are no fun. The inflammation can cause symptoms common to the common cold. Many people can contract a sinus infection after having a cold or the flu. A bacterial infection usually causes sinus infections, but viruses or fungi can also cause them. These infections can either be acute or chronic. In this episode Evan and I discuss several natural treatment options, such as nasal flushing, which can help clear your sinuses, as well as dietary strategies to help recovery! >> Click here to listen to the episode!<< | |

The Reason Drugs Cause Problems
Dr. David Brownstein, M.D., writes:
Most drugs work by poisoning enzymes and/or blocking receptors in the body. Enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions. For instance, digestive enzymes help to break down food so that the body can utilize nutrients to make energy and support other bodily functions.
Receptors are sites in the body molecules bind to in order to stimulate a process. In other words, after a receptor is bound by an element, it causes the body to initiate a response. In the thyroid gland, iodine binding to its receptor causes the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormone.
Special: You're Worried About Your Skin, But It's Your Gut That Matters
You simply cannot maintain good health if your enzymes are poisoned and your receptors are blocked.
When I was in medical school, I thought drug therapies could cure all ills. Only when I went into private practice did I begin to question what I had been taught.
Once I started looking at the body as a holistic, interconnected organism, I realized that absolute reliance on drug therapies was not the best way to treat patients.
Instead of poisoning enzymes and blocking receptors, I began to look for methods that supported the body’s physiology, rather than relying on drugs that negatively altered it.

Q: What is the link between low vitamin D and breast cancer and what are the root causes of low vitamin D if it is not a lack of sun? Humans need sunlight for their cells to work. When we avoid nature, we are actually increasing our risk of some types of cancers. Our environment works with our bodies to provide optimal health. Breast cancer has a strong association with low levels of vitamin D and lack of sunlight. Some studies show breast and colorectal cancer incidence rates are highest in countries distant from the equator and lowest in near-equatorial countries. Why might that be? Because Vitamin D plays a huge supporting role in the immune system. Benefits of Vitamin D:
The American diet is notoriously low in vitamin D and most Americans spend the majority of their time inside. Vitamin D is a potent inhibitor of aromatase (the enzyme converting testosterone into estrogen) – so it will directly lower. Q: What role does the health of our liver have in estrogen dominance? Reduced liver function may contribute to estrogen dominance due to its function in helping the body get rid of estrogen. The liver inactivates estrogen during Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the detoxification cycle. If the liver is too busy struggling with burdens like overconsumption of alcohol, a deficiency of B vitamins, or trying to detoxify drugs and other pollutants, it may not be able to break down estrogen through either one of the phases. This may prevent the excretion of estrogen via bile, urine, or the bowel and ultimately may cause excess estrogen. Q: What is the link between synthetic hormone replacement and the risks of breast cancer development? Synthetic HRT means that the molecule is similar, but not identical to the natural hormone they replace. The standard medical treatment until 2003 was synthetic hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with horse estrogen and artificial progestins. The Breast Cancer Detection Demonstration Project performed studies that showed that women who were on Premarin (synthetic HRT) had a rate of endometrial cancer that was five times higher than that of non-users. These findings rightfully led to HRT’s negative reputation. Progestins have also been found to cause issues in some women including liver malignancy, asthma, and pulmonary aggravation. Q: We know that emotions and stress play a huge role in health. What are the top stress interventions you give to your patients? Make peace with your past, read philosophy, meditate, EVOX biofeedback therapy, daily affirmations, Wim Hof Method of breathing, Solfeggio frequencies, spend time in nature, eat nutrient-dense foods, and have daily sunlight exposure. |

| Jimi, American bumblebee populations have dropped by 89% and disappeared altogether in eight states, yet Big Ag has continued to dump MILLIONS of pounds of bee-killing neonic pesticides on American farmland each year. Bee decline isn’t just a problem for the bees – studies have shown that declines in bee populations negatively affect our own food supplies, including the production of apples, blueberries and cherries. As if that weren’t enough, emerging research is showing that neonics may also harm kids’ developing nervous systems and brains. And the CDC has found neonics in 50% of children in the U.S. ages 3 to 5! The EU has already banned the use of four neonics. But the U.S. is still dragging its feet. Do you think the U.S. should BAN neonics? We need 2,000 of our top supporters to take our survey before midnight tonight to help us formulate our plans. Your response will help us figure out the best way to protect bees and ban harmful pesticides. If you have just two minutes, please complete this quick survey! |

5 signs of an underactive thyroid
Is your weight gain and exhaustion caused by an underactive thyroid? Sometimes it can be hard to tell.Today, I’d like to share with you 5 signs that your thyroid is impacting your health.
1. Unexplainable weight gain
You put on weight easily and struggle to lose it - no matter how much exercise you do how clean you try to eat.
2. Extreme fatigue
Every day you wake up tired and go to sleep tired. You sometimes can’t even get out of bed… and in the afternoon, you can barely function.
3. Brain fog
Focusing on tasks is a real chore - much more so than in the past. It takes a lot out of you just to think about certain things, and concentrating is much harder than it should be.
4. Digestive problems
You’re often bloated, constipated, and have chronic gas. Digestive discomfort is so common for you that you think, “oh this must just be what everyone feels.” I’m here to tell you - it’s not.
5. Emotional distress
You have mood swings and struggle with bouts of anxiety and depression. Sometimes it seems hopeless that there’s no way out of it.
If you struggle with 1 or more of these symptoms, it may be because of an underactive thyroid.
You see, your thyroid secretes hormones that control your metabolism.
And as you age, your thyroid can be damaged from both stress and toxins from the standard American diet. So it stops secreting key metabolic hormones, which affects nearly every area of your health.
The most shocking part?
Experts estimate that more than 40% of the US population have symptoms of low thyroid function…
The older you get, the more likely you are to suffer from a thyroid disorder…
And women are 500% - 800% more likely than men to have a thyroid disorder.

Go Beyond Guidelines for a Healthy Heart
By Chauncey Crandall, M.D.
Many doctors, and patients as well, take their health cues from new medical guidelines that government officials and private healthcare organizations release from time to time in an effort to engage the public on health issues of national concern.
Special: Dr. Crandall Saved His Own Heart With This
While these recommendations can be helpful for most Americans, they often don’t go far enough — especially if a person wants to achieve optimal health or reverse existing ailments such as heart disease. Here are some suggestions if you’re interested in going beyond standard guidelines.
Diet. While the government suggests a balanced daily eating plan divided among fruit, grains, protein, vegetables, and oils, stick to just whole grains, limit red meat to once or twice a month, and get 80% of your menu from vegetables, fruits, beans, and legumes, which offer protein.
Cut Your Salt. Guidelines recommend people consume less than 2,300 mg of sodium (salt) — about 1 teaspoon. Although it will take time for your taste buds to grow accustomed to less-salty food, you’ll eventually adjust to less sodium. Eat whole, fresh foods and avoid packaged and processed foods, which are often packed with salt, not only for flavor but also as a preservative.
Exercise. The National Institutes of Health advises that some physical activity is always better than none. For major health benefits, work up to at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity each week. If you’ve been sedentary or have medical issues, consult your doctor first.
Blood Pressure. It’s important to keep your blood pressure within ideal limits, but sometimes doctors, patients, and even the government disagree. A healthy blood pressure is a systolic reading of 120 or less and a diastolic reading of 80 or less, which is commonly referred to “120 over 80.” Losing weight is the best way to lower blood pressure naturally, but people with high blood pressure may need medication as well.
Cholesterol. People with heart disease need to keep their total cholesterol at 150 or below, as research shows that people who belong to the “150 club” rarely suffer heart attacks. And always strive to lower your target numbers by natural means.
