As I near 100K on this platform and closing in on over 1 million across platforms I’m reflecting on what it means and how can I best serve the audiences that I’ve built. If you’ve been here for a while or even if you’re new, I think my love and commitment to health optimization is clear. Optimizing my health has been my personal and professional pursuit for a decade, but as I think about what could be most beneficial to you outside of sharing my protocols and health content I want to remind you that I love Jesus, and if you don’t have a relationship with him, I hope to plant a seed. Our lives here on this planet can be made exponentially better with improving our health and we can even get more years here with the people that we love but personally, I’m not scared of death because I know that I’m going to a better place I’ll be going to heaven as long as I continue to follow the Lord. Our time here is finite, but your time with him can be forever. The best things of my life I’ve been gifts from the Lord from my husband showing up out of nowhere and us getting married four months later, to the peace and joy he brings on a daily basis I could go on and on. And if you’re asking yourself the question that I do often get asked: how can I live a life that’s built on science and still believe in God. Well, God is backed by science. Religious service attendance: 33% lower all-cause mortality in women (Harvard, n=74,534). The same biomarkers we optimize with labs and wearables respond to prayer and contemplative practice: lower IL-6, lower cortisol, higher telomerase activity, longer telomeres, higher BDNF. I see myself log restored daily during prayer. Now if you’re asking why I believe Jesus existed: Most people don’t realize this, but the existence of Jesus as a real historical person is accepted by virtually every credentialed historian of antiquity, including secular and atheist ones. Contemporary scholars of antiquity agree that Jesus existed, and biblical scholars and classical historians view the theories of his nonexistence as effectively refuted. The classicist Michael Grant (a secular historian) put it this way: “In recent years, no serious scholar has ventured to postulate the non-historicity of Jesus, or at any rate very few have, and they have not succeeded in disposing of the much stronger, indeed very abundant, evidence to the contrary.” Now there is a debate over his identity, that is theological. Did he do what we’ve been told he did, is he who we’ve been told he is? Well, to that I would ask you this question: if we know that having faith in something bigger than yourself is a positive for longevity, if we know that prayer can improve biomarkers, if we know that faith can produce stronger marriages and relationship (also beneficial to longevity) and we know that Jesus existed, what’s the downside in exploring what it could look like to have a relationship with him. Now, if you’ve made it this far, I know you followed for heath and longevity, but I do want to share this because as grateful as I am to get to do exactly what I love every day and build a following for it, at the end of my days, when this life ends, I want to show up in front of God and say that I shared my love from him, that I wanted to make heaven crowded, and I hope I’ll see many of you there. Oh, and by the way in the Bible were called to be good stewards of our health 🙂‍↔️❤️
