Optimization is the only way to save the decline we’re experiencing in society and health. It solves the issues caused by living in a blue light era, problems associated with food and SSRIs. Our goal as a society is to build a firm foundation for our health and it starts with how you think. Things like mindfulness, inflammation control, nutrition, detoxification, sleep, exercise and total hormone balance are incredibly important. Thanks to wearable technology, we can create a rich data set to help people become scientists of their own health. The body has an unlimited potential to heal itself, and this is what we have to lean on.
