Most people think sleep and gut health are separate issues—but the truth is, they’re deeply connected.

According to sleep expert Dr. Matt Walker, there’s a bidirectional highway between your gut and your brain, and it’s called the vagus nerve.

Ever stopped to ask why you crave junk food or alcohol? For many, it’s not about hunger—it’s about anxiety, boredom, and social identity.

Breaking free from unhealthy habits often means reshaping your social life, and that can be uncomfortable. But true friendships don’t require food and alcohol to connect.

What’s been your biggest challenge in making healthier choices?

We often talk about the social determinants of health—poverty, stress, access to food—but what about the commercial determinants of health?

Multinational corporations profit by making us sicker while taxpayers foot the bill. The government subsidizes the production of ultra-processed foods, funds their consumption through food assistance programs, and then pays for the consequences through Medicare and Medicaid.

🚨 75% of food purchased with food stamps is ultra-processed junk.
🚨 10% of it is soda.
🚨 Coca-Cola makes 20% of its U.S. profits from government food programs.

Meanwhile, the very people selling these products avoid them themselves—just like Steve Jobs wouldn’t let his kids use an iPad.

It’s time to wake up to how the system is rigged against us. The only way forward is to reclaim our health through real, whole food.

Do you think the government should stop subsidizing junk food? Let me know in the comments. ⬇️

Sitting for hours at a time doesn’t just affect your energy—it can seriously disrupt blood sugar control.

A recent study reveals that interrupting prolonged sitting with short bursts of movement can significantly improve glycemic control.

In the study, participants who performed 3 minutes of walking or 10 bodyweight squats every 45 minutes had better blood sugar regulation compared to those who stayed seated or even those who took a single 30-minute walk.

These frequent, targeted bursts of activity were shown to activate key muscle groups like the quadriceps and glutes, leading to better glucose management throughout the day.

This is proof that you don’t need to spend hours in the gym to support your metabolic health. Frequent, intentional movement throughout the day can be a powerful tool to improve blood sugar control, especially for those of us with sedentary jobs.

How will you fit this into your day?

The health of America is in crisis—and we need leaders who are ready to face the facts, ask the hard questions, and fight for meaningful change.

I’ve known Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for 20 years. He’s a man of integrity, deeply committed to transforming the health of our nation. He believes in science—not as a set of settled answers, but as a process of asking bold questions and seeking the truth.

Right now, 38% of teens in the U.S. are pre-diabetic. We rank 48th in life expectancy worldwide, despite spending nearly $5 trillion annually on healthcare. Much of this is driven by a broken food system, ultra-processed foods, and a lack of focus on chronic disease prevention.

RFK Jr. is not anti-vaccine. He supports vaccines and has vaccinated his own children. He’s simply asking for transparency, accountability, and rigorous scientific inquiry into the safety and efficacy of all medical interventions—including vaccines. This is not about conspiracies; it’s about ensuring we have honest conversations rooted in data, not dogma.

If you believe in standing up for health, integrity, and truth, you can make your voice heard by calling your senators to express support for RFK Jr.

Here’s how you can help:
-Call or email your senators to advocate for honest leadership in addressing our nation’s health crisis.
