EP70: Why Everything You Know About Food is Wrong w/ Kevin Geary

b'The Problem: The government has lied to us about food for nearly forever. From unnecessary fears about saturated fats to a ridiculous idea that we need 8 servings of grains a day. Face it, we\\u2019ve been duped. Their food pyramid is a scam, but does that really surprise us?\\n \\nKevin\\u2019s Solution: \\nBuild a podcast and online fitness and wellness platform based on his own, personal experience from being unhappy with his own health and how he transformed (aka rebooted) his own body.\\n \\nComplete Show Notes: \\nKevin went through a personal health transformation in 2009. He went for a physical and the doctor told him that he had high blood pressure and was close to becoming a diabetic. He likes to say that he \\u201cdieted\\u201d up to a weight of 225 lbs. The combination of calorie restriction and excessive exercise worked for a while, but then he\\u2019d crash and binge and lose all gains. He decided that something more permanent was needed. Kevin decided that he had a poor relationship with food and became very curious about his OWN body and how it works and wants rather than what some government or doctor tells him what will build a successful food relationship. \\n \\nAt the time, Kevin was the co-owner and instructor of a martial arts school at the time and wanted professional change too. During his own body transformation, some of his students started to take notice and asked him if he could help them. This demand slowly turned into a business opportunity. Remember, if there\\u2019s demand there\\u2019s a potential business opportunity. \\n \\nSo he emailed his list from the karate business and created a couples health and wellness program. It was successful! He had 7 couples that wanted to join and the Rebooted brand was started!\\n \\nYou don\\u2019t want to miss the part where we discuss sugar and how it\\u2019s actually a drug; hooking into your body and making you physiologically dependant. Yes, there\\u2019s a withdrawal period from sugar and Kevin chats about why it\\u2019s wise to take some time to be curious about your possible dependence.\\n \\nFood Pyramid\\nBoth Kevin and myself aren\\u2019t big fans of the state-sponsored food pyramid and remain quite skeptical. We discuss the origins of the pyramid and why it could have been politically manipulated rather than actually being created for our actual benefit. Sounds like a gov program, no?\\n \\nFor liberty-minded people, this is a MUST listen podcast. We\\u2019ve gotta take care of ourselves, we all know this, but Kevin breaks it down in very libertarian language. Remember, property rights are derived from the body so if you respect property then keep getting closer to the root. \\n \\nKeep building freedom!\\nAshe\\n \\n \\nContact Info:\\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/thekevingeary\\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thekevinmgeary\\n \\n \\nPodcast Resources:\\nDeath by Food Pyramid by Denise Minger - https://www.amazon.com/Death-Food-Pyramid-Politics-Interests/dp/0984755128\\n \\n \\nRebootedBody - Kevin\\u2019s health, wellness and fitness platform\\nhttps://rebootedbody.com/\\n \\nKevin\\u2019s Podcast - High quality info and interviews\\nhttps://rebootedbody.com/show/ \\n \\nSix Figure Grind - Find out how to grind and work to build your own freedom rather than someone else\\u2019s.\\nhttp://sixfiguregrind.com \\n \\nPLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW ON YOUR FAVORITE PLATFORM!\\nYoutube: http://www.youtube.com/c/LibertyEntrepreneurs\\niTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/liberty-entrepreneurs/id1057809945?mt=2\\nSoundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/liberty-entrepreneurs\\nStitcher Radio: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/liberty-entrepreneurs-podcast\\nTuneIn Radio: http://tunein.com/radio/Liberty-Entrepreneurs-Podcast-p805213/\\nGoogle Play: https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Iqp3bpqbhske6s6476yfy2yyylu\\nPlayer.fm: https://player.fm/series/liberty-entrepreneurs'
