What products changed my life?
This is one of those questions that I get all the time. My answer often surprises people. The truth is that the biggest change in my life didn’t necessarily come from any products. It was simply cleaning up what I was putting into my body that really changed everything for me. It was through that long process of cleansing that I found out about foundational nutrients and their powerful health benefits though.
The first ones I was introduced to were various forms of micro-algae, one of which was marine phytoplankton. The marine phytoplankton stood out, but I didn’t think much of it at first because it came diluted in a litre of juice. Each bottle cost around $50 and contained maybe a dropper-full of marine phytoplankton. The juice wasn’t therapeutic either, it was used to hide the taste of the small amount of phytoplankton it contained. I only kept taking it because I noticed after about a month that it was starting to change my health, my perspective and my life. But I knew it could be better. The cost was ludicrous for the amount of phytoplankton in each bottle. I realized that if such a small amount was improving my health, then a raw, unprocessed marine phytoplankton supplement would be a hundred times better.
That became my focus: to find raw, fully concentrated products that would have the greatest benefits for my health. I traveled to Europe where I was introduced to a group of biologists growing raw marine phytoplankton in a sealed off ocean-like environment (You can see the photos and discover more about the selective growing process here). I felt amazing immediately after trying it. It was the cleanest phytoplankton I’d ever tasted. That was it for me. I couldn’t go back. Every day I could feel myself getting exponentially healthier. I was used to feeling worse as I aged but this feeling was the opposite. Every day that I grew older, I only felt better.
Looking back, I wouldn’t give marine phytoplankton all the credit. That feeling of youthful health (which I feel even more today) stemmed from my commitment to fixing my body with proper nutrition. My health had been on a slow and gentle descent downward my whole life up to that point, until my body unravelled. It was understanding the power of proper nutrition that helped me reverse that descent. The more I learned and the more I discovered about nutrition and clean eating, the more I realized that I could continuously feel better into the future. You probably hear on a daily basis from companies telling you that you can reverse aging. I always laugh when I see those advertisements or claims because that’s not what you want. You don’t want to stop aging because the only time you stop aging is when you die. Proper nutrition and the products I take don’t help me stop aging, they help me to age gracefully. You can feel better and look better as you age, you just need to give your body the proper fuel to do that.
Your body is a powerful tool if you respect it…
You don’t own your body. It can be taken away from you at any moment. I nearly learned that the hard way because I didn’t respect my body enough and I didn’t give it the nutrients it needed. Luckily, I had a wake up call and I was able to fix my health. I’ve known others who weren’t afforded that luxury. I watched friends and colleagues my age unwind and die before anyone knew what was happening. In each case it was shocking. It was such a gradual descent downward that no one saw their health deteriorating until it was too late. You don’t want to let that happen to you. You want to constantly be in a state of re-methylation, where your health is gradually increasing instead of declining. You want the last years of your life to be as good as any and when your time does come to pass, you want it to happen quietly in your sleep after a long and wonderful day.
I had a friend, Lee Vale, who died in his sleep when he was 97. Lee used to say, “nothing feels as good as feeling good”. I would always laugh when he said that, but it’s undeniably true. Do the things that support your body. If you’re going to be alive you may as well feel fully alive. Don’t just be healthy, be super-healthy. That’s what the Activation Products team and I are all about. That’s what our whole body health products are all about. I’ve said this before, but there is no such thing as a magic pill that will fix all your problems. Give your body the right nutrients, and you will get the results you are looking for in return. There’s nothing more powerful for your long-term health.
