Justin's Health Suggestion Guide Part 1 of 10

 



Hello again Dear Readers in today's post I will beginning a ten part series that will cover some advice to improve your health. Note: I'm not a doctor, so whatever I am going to say in this series is "not intended to treat, diagnose, prevent, and or cure any disease". (just covering my butt in case the medical establishment wants to sue) 😒. Each segment I will give 20 tips to increase your personal wellness. The last segment will be a summery/Conclusion page that will wrap it up. *This is my plan for post for the following year, although I may make more post than this in 2024.

*Update: due to another big project that I'm currently engaged in, I cannot promise this ten part series will be complete by the end of 2024, although it may still.

The categories I desire to cover are as follows:

  • Benefits of Good Nutrition (Vitamins & Minerals)
  • Benefits of Good Nutrition (Vitamins & Minerals) pt2
  • Drawbacks of Processed Foods (Toxins and Processing)
