The ultimate purpose of these pages is to inspire your understanding of truly vital health topics, empowering you to live your best life.

• Once you grasp these critical concepts, the choice becomes clear: Will you take proactive steps to achieve and sustain optimal health, or will you follow the more common American trajectory — one that often ends in a premature departure from life, preceded by one or two decades of poor health? The path you choose can make all the difference.

Imagine someone who buys a new car but neglects its maintenance. They rarely change the oil or filters, forget to top off fluids, skip tire rotations, and ignore tune-ups altogether. Over time, the car begins to sputter, wear down, and eventually breaks down far earlier than it should. Now, consider this: How many of us treat our own health the same way?

The consequences of neglecting car maintenance — or your health — may not be immediate, but they are inevitable.

• Skipping an oil change won’t cause a car to break down overnight, but over time, neglect adds up. We all understand that an unmaintained car will eventually fail, yet the delay between inaction and the resulting breakdown often catches car owners by surprise. It’s human nature to procrastinate, even when we know better.
• The same principle applies to our health. The gap between neglecting healthy habits and the eventual consequences can lull us into complacency. But make no mistake: failing to maintain your health today paves the way for tomorrow's breakdown. The longer we wait, the greater the cost.

Your Body is More Important Than Your Car

Ironically, people often give less thought and care to the physical health of their body than they do to their vehicles, mistakenly believing that maintaining their health can be put off for quite awhile advancing a career, raising children, serving God, country, or other noble causes. But regardless of the reason, neglecting the maintenance of one's body leads to one inevitable outcome: a guaranteed decline in health. The wise choice is clear — take care of your health, or suffer the consequences.

Three Habits that destroy the health of most people.

1. Trusting others too much — especially those who benefit from your poor health and your early death, such as big business, big pharma and big government — can be dangerous. It's essential to take charge of your own health by understanding the real truths about wellness.
2. Not thinking about your health — and not believing that a person you see in a coffin, hospital bed, struggling with joint pain, losing memory, functioning with limited mobility or low energy, etc. may very likely be you in the future, unless you learn to act smarter than they did. Especially failing to consider what are one's particular health risks is the height of unthinkiness or arrogance (take your pick).
3. Failing to plan your daily routines so as to establish the Six Habits of Health. The old saying is true: If one fails to plan, the result becomes the same as if one had planned to fail.
