Changing My Life to Improve My Health

tppThe People’s Pharmacy is a great radio show broadcast nationally on Public Radio, providing health information about both medical and alternative treatment options.  Joe and Terry Graedon are the wonderful folks behind the show, and I’ve been friends with them for many years as I’ve followed their innovative insights into participatory medicine.

I was recently interviewed on their radio show about my own health-related journey over the past year.  In a nutshell, I went from being overweight and always tired to now being stronger than ever and back to wearing clothes that fit me in college.

You can listen to my story on Show 995: Changing Your Life to Improve Your Health.  You can also get the show on iTunes.

Spoiler Alert: My story doesn’t involve any wonder drug or fad diet.  It basically comes down to a lifestyle change involving lots of walking, strength training, not eating crap and eating lots of plants. 😉

Take care,
