GET MORE PROTEIN, BUILD MORE MUSCLE
Protein is a non-negotiable for building muscle, boosting immunity, and promoting longevity. It is essential. But most of us don’t get enough...
Aim for 1g of protein per pound of goal body weight (e.g., 150g for a 150-pound target). That’s about 1.5 lbs of meat or 1–1.3 lbs plus some cheese or clean protein powder.
Choose bioavailable sources like grass-fed beef, cheese, and other animal-based foods to fuel your body and truly thrive.
2. EAT ORGANS DAILY FOR VITAL NUTRIENTS
Organs were once the most prized foods on the planet, and for good reason. Packed with essential nutrients, they can truly change your life...boosting skin health, strengthening your immune system, and enhancing overall vitality.
If there’s one thing I’d suggest changing in the new year, it’s this: start getting organs into your diet as frequently as possible.
Find grass-fed liver or heart from a local farm or grocery store. Sear them with butter, grill them, or eat them raw (from a trusted source).
For an easier option, try our ABC Protein Powder or Meat Sticks, packed with nutrient-dense organs to fit your lifestyle. Your body will thank you.
3. SLEEP BETTER BY ALIGNING YOUR CIRCADIAN RHYTHM.
Sleep isn’t just important, it’s essential for your health. Why? Good sleep improves your energy, immune function, hormone balance, and mental clarity. And what controls your sleep? Your body clock, or circadian rhythm.
To align it properly, here’s the secret:
Morning Sunlight: Step outside for 5 minutes every morning and get sunlight directly in your eyes. Bonus points if you’re grounded on the earth while doing it.
Nighttime Prep: Block as much blue light as possible in the evening. Use dim lighting, candles, red lights on your devices, or simply read a book and connect with loved ones. Avoid the doom scroll. It’s not helping...
These simple habits, done daily, will transform your sleep and your health. It might sound crazy, but give it a try. You’ll feel the difference.
4. SWAP YOUR FATS & DITCH SEED OILS FOR GOOD
You’ve heard it before, but it’s time to get serious. Ditch seed oils for good. These oils are rancid, oxidized, and harmful to your body. Even olive oil isn’t ideal for high-heat cooking.
Instead, swap it out for grass-fed tallow...that’s why I created what I believe is the best tallow on the planet.
And here’s the real kicker: when dining out, ask restaurants to cook your food in butter. Most places will accommodate, and many are even switching to tallow! It’s not as awkward as you think, and it’s well worth it...
Seed oils take a long time to detox from your body, so if you want to truly thrive, you need to take this seriously. Cook with tallow, butter, or even coconut oil. This is how you thrive...
5. STOP EATING GARBAGE & EMBRACE REAL WHOLE FOODS
I know it’s hard—especially around the holidays, but it needs to be said: stop eating garbage. Cookies, cakes, candies, processed junk, and that nightly dessert or glass of wine. It’s all damaging your health. These are not human foods.
Here’s the good news: real, whole foods taste even better. Imagine starting your day with bacon, eggs, and fresh fruit, having chicken or burgers with cheese and a smoothie for lunch, snacking on a yogurt bowl with 100% raw, organic honey and fruit, and ending your day with steak, sweet potato, and a dessert made with eggs, butter, honey, and raw cream, maybe even raw milk ice cream...Delicious, right?
Eating like a human isn’t just nutritious, it’s incredibly satisfying. Take control of your health. Stop eating garbage, and fuel your body the way it was meant to be fed.
6. BONUS: BE A HUMAN, GET OUT IN NATURE
Your health thrives when you align with what it truly means to be human. Spend time outside in nature and ground your feet on the earth. Avoid doom scrolling and connect with friends and family instead.
Make time for hobbies and activities that bring you joy. Focus on eating real, nutrient-dense foods, especially animal-based options. Work on limiting stress and prioritizing your mental health. Don’t fear sunlight...it’s vital for your well-being. Stay mindful of harmful chemicals and avoid products that don’t serve your health.
I know life gets busy, but even small, daily changes that align more closely with how humans are meant to live can transform your health over time. Start today and you’ll thank yourself later.
