Great video. Just a quick warning note for exercising and "mimicking a fever" - if you have any viral symptoms at all it is important NOT to exercise, or you can really run the risk of triggering chronic fatigue. I learnt this the hard way (long distance runner who continued to exercise through glandular fever, thinking that sweating would help me - now chronic fatigue sufferer). If you have any viral or virus-like symptoms, SKIP the exercise and just stretch and rest. Return to exercise once any viral symptoms have passed X

Speaking of gut health, this morning I was just looking over the 3 Day Juice Cleanse I bought from you a few years ago. (I have it printed out and in a nice binder!) I plan to do it at least for today. Awesome information in this video!

Yay! We hope you enjoy it! Just thinking about doing it over here again soon!

[@heathervanhoof8549]

You two are true warriors of health! Love your passion and knowledge. Your enthusiasm is addictive in such a positive way. Love the testing you've shared, digital detox, meditation, outside activities and the list goes on... My holistic dr. has had me on 50,000 IU of Vit. D as well and my levels were tested and in the middle range...agreed. Thank you both for sharing your gifts with all of us looking to live a cleaner and healthier life. Blessings...

[@robertturner1308]

Very good ideas. You all seem to be doing great! For vitamin D one thing I do is buy mushrooms and put them on a baking sheet out in the sun for a day under a window screen to keep bugs away. I learned that mushrooms at the grocery store are normally grown in the dark but if you take them home and leave them in the sun they will produce vitamin D just like our skin can. Gill sides up makes the most Vitamin D. I always cook them afterwards in stews or on the stove just in case but I like it as a way to boost vitamin D in a natural way.

[@EatMoveRest]

We’ve heard that too! So cool!

[@knowthyselfandyoullknowthe8216]

thank you so much for the wonderful idea to drink the vinegar with fizzy water, I've tried but with normal water and I just couldn't and with fizzy water it's amazingly good....love it ! Thank you so much, apple cider vinegar is a REAL natural medecine.

It's really interesting to get a blood glucose meter and test regularly (daily). Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo has free information about blood sugar and cortisol that is so interesting. I was surprised at what causes fluctuations in both including stress, exercise, sleep etc! I think you'd find the meter results daily and after certain meals, etc. fascinating if you love blood test results!

To avoid caffeine, what's the best tea that can still give you that boost in the morning, but doesn't have caffeine? I was a big coffee drinker and keep trying to switch to tea but like you said stress puts me back on coffee, right now I'm drinking jasmine pearls tea which still has some caffeine since it is green tea. Do you do the apple cider vinegar at night or before meals?

[@EatMoveRest]

Yes to the apple cider! As far as energizing tea, you could try something with cacao! Or try juicing, I get a zing from ginger turmeric shots!

[@reganstandlick7520]

EatMoveRest I don’t own a juicer. Where do you get the shots? what brands of cocoa would you recommend?

[@panes840]

Great 👍. Please note that zinc supplements even taken at a low dose but taken for too long is toxic. You can research this. Taken short term (e.g. only a few weeks) is great though 👍 . Whoke Food is much, much better.

I hope you can help me, I have been vegan for over a year, I soak all beans and grains with ACV and cook and ferment after. I eat almost 3,000 calories a day. I steam greens that are high in oxalates. And eat other greens raw. I take all necessary supplements. I take Udo's DHA for omega 3,6 and 9. Eat no processed foods. Shop mostly at farmers markets. My hair started falling out within a few months (still occurring), started to have tooth sensitivity, rashes on my arms and I now have irregular periods. My husband does not have any of these symptoms and we eat the same thing for breakfast lunch and dinner. Can you, or anyone else out there help? Thank you
