Rethink obesity and create lasting health by harnessing the power of how our bodies work.
Americans are living through a modern famine. With obesity on the rise and a cultural ideal of health built around "eat less, exercise more," our bodies are being deprived of nutrients at the cellular level. Slower metabolisms, weight gain, and lack of energy is our bodies' way of responding to the ever-increasing modern demands and environmental pressures. It's the norm in our busy lives to ignore the crucial elements that make up good health-sleep, fresh water, nutrition from nutrient dense foods, oxygen, movement, and more.
It's time to sound the alarm on the obesity epidemic and reveal the real truth: Obesity is not the problem; it's the symptom of a much larger health crisis.
Dr. Kathy Campbell invites you to shatter the confines of conventional thinking around health and obesity. While obesity is labeled as personal failure, she propels you toward an enlightening realization: it's time to look at our culture of health. Based on her popular TEDx talk with a unique blend of medical insight and her personal journey with obesity, Dr. Campbell reframes the healthy eating narrative to put the power of your health back in your hands.
You'll learn:
- The critical steps to create a culture of health around you, including the vital roles of community, connection, and purpose.
- The unique clues your body is giving you and how to decipher these physical signs to unlock lasting health.
- How to define your health goals, recognize the external factors influencing your health, and navigate life's challenges in a way that supports your well-being.
- The complex interplay between our primitive bodies and our modern culture and how to put the pieces of foundational health in place.
- Dozens of health strategies and practical exercises that put you on the path to eat more, support your biochemistry, and start your pathway to get off the pills derailing your health.
Obesity: The Modern Famine is a blueprint for a healthier future. In a culture that reliably produces disease and obesity, Dr. Campbell offers a rallying cry for personal transformation for the life you want to live-one of vitality, well-being, and thriving health.
