It's Wednesday morning at eight thirty nine and taking your calls to keep you smiling
0:05
with the healthy place. It's too Jim, how you doing this week?
0:16
Bahalo and Alohawk calling in from the great state of Hawaii. Join it with
0:21
my family. How are you, mister Sean fraz I'm doing really good.
0:24
It is great to talk with you, my friend. I hope you're getting
0:26
plenty of plenty of sunshine. I know you also are an active guy.
0:30
You like to do some Did you get a chance to get out to some
0:32
rock climbing or anything while you're out there? Oh, we are climbing on
0:37
rocks. I am showing my young men here there's ten and eight how to
0:40
climb rocks, and how to surf, and how to swim and how to
0:44
just enjoy a nice time. And we got my cute little girl here at
0:48
twelve and our baby boy two years old. Just a blast with the wife
0:53
and we are just enjoying it to the mac. Oh. That is great
0:56
to hear. And it's great for you to take time this morning to check
0:59
in with us. And we've we've got some great emails this week also,
1:02
of course, and we mentioned if you ever have questions. You can email
1:04
Tim at find your Healthy Place dot com. Even better, just head on
1:07
over to the website find your Healthy Place dot com. You can start a
1:11
live chat right there with a wellness consultant. Even better than that, just
1:15
stop in. It's such a great group of people. Whether it's a Fitchburg
1:18
location, it's on Praier east side of Madison and Tim, of course this
1:23
week. Halloween was this week, and I know a lot of us probably
1:26
had that giant bowl of candy. Maybe we started a little bit of pregaming.
1:30
I ate a little candy before even Halloween started. And Jackson writes in
1:34
with a very very timely question. He said, at my last yearly checkup,
1:38
my blood sugar level was in the pre diabetes range. My doctor didn't
1:44
seem very concerned and said we should discuss medication, which I inevitably when I
1:49
inevitably developed type type two diabetes, I feel like there has to be something
1:53
I can do to prevent my blood sugar levels from continuing to increase. What
1:57
are the options for dealing with this in a more natural way? And that
2:00
email from Jackson, Yeah, Jackson, excellent, excellent question. It's a
2:06
common question in our stores. Common questions for our community. We all intake,
2:10
you know, carbs, which gets converted into sugar, and we all
2:14
take in just straight sugar through a variety of sources, and that spikes that
2:17
insulin. So we want to find ways and natural ways if we can to
2:22
balance out those sugar levels. And there's a few different products that have good
2:28
amount of science and good reason to believe that it will help you. And
2:31
Glucose Control by Evergreen is one of our top selling products. So you can
2:38
go to a website you type in glucose support and it'll pull up that product.
2:43
And what I like about it is that has a nice blend of alpha,
2:46
the poeic acid that's your top universal antioxidant. It literally converts glucose into
2:52
energy, So not only will it help balance your sugar levels, but it
2:54
will also convert those sugars into natural energy, helping you feel a little bit
3:00
more even throughout the day. Berberine, mulberry, Jaminia, selvestra, banana
3:06
leaf are all a couple other examples inside that product that bring the insulin levels
3:10
to a balance. And we have had a number, sewn number of Type
3:15
two diabetics. This is not to be confused with type one diabetes, Type
3:19
two diabetics that have been pre diabetic that no longer are, and a smaller
3:25
amount but still there Type two diabetics that have no longer needed the medications by
3:30
need by taking this supplement here. So this has been my favorite for some
3:34
years. The other product I like to bring up is clinical OPC grape seed
3:39
extract. Clinical OPC grape seed extract. These make a nice team, the
3:46
two products together a lot of science on this one. We in fact,
3:50
if you stop into one of our stories, you can ask for a free
3:53
book on the clinical OPC grapes that extract so incredible for the heart and diabetics.
3:59
Those are the two. Nichel Jackson a great email, and of course
4:01
you can always email Tim at find your Healthy Place dot com. That's Tim
4:04
t I am at finds your Healthy Place dot com. And I've got to
4:08
ask you to Tim as we as we were just talking about about diabetes,
4:12
I know one of the things that uh, you know, and as somebody
4:15
who who doesn't always eat the most healthy and is not always the most wise
4:18
with my diet, I think we're all guilty of that. Time. One
4:20
of the things my my doctor in the past has always brought up with me
4:24
about blood sugar and those type of things and I good levels and all that,
4:29
but he always he always would tell me, he says, you know,
4:31
one of the things about diabetes is if you can do things in the
4:34
early stage, make some simple lifestyle modifications, eat better, those kind of
4:39
things, take the proper supplements, you can actually prevent yourself from developing that
4:45
illness, which anybody that knows anybody that's that's suffering from diabetes, once you
4:48
have it, it can as as we've you know Jackson talking about it can
4:53
be you can just revoc on your life. You know. I have a
4:56
very good friend that passed away named Rick, and he's battled type of diabetes
5:00
and he wasn't able to get his arms around a healthier diet and it took
5:03
his life. And it can be very difficult to watch loved ones or walk
5:08
to ourselves goes through some of that. And diet really is everything when it
5:13
comes to type of diabetes. As much as I like to bring up supplements
5:15
that work and I work with those and sell them all day long because they
5:18
help people, diet is your best starting place. You know. I have
5:23
a little bit of a hero in this industry named doctor Whittaker, and he's
5:26
out of California area, and he has cured hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of
5:30
people, maybe in the thousands by now. But there was a point because
5:33
he got so bold with telling his community that I, hey, you know
5:39
somebody type of diabetes, we can cure him, and so much to the
5:42
point that the state of California file a lawsuit saying, hey, this is
5:46
a degenerative disease. You can't tell people that you can cure this. And
5:49
doctor Whitaker said, listen, this is a very easy disease to cure naturally,
5:55
and here is a hundred examples. And he literally brought in, you
5:58
know this before digital was popular, maybe fifteen years ago or so, brought
6:01
in one hundred real case studies, real examples, real people that he that
6:06
were a type of diabetic for some years, and he totally cured of type
6:11
of diabetes. So from a dietary standpoint in perspective, it is is not
6:16
a disease you have to live with. So if you're listening right now you
6:18
have a pre diabetic or type two diabetes, I want you to know the
6:21
truth. And the truth is that you do not have to live with diabetes
6:26
in your life, and you know, through diets supplements you can get that
6:30
under control. There is there is something more dramatic too about bringing phone book,
6:34
stacks of paper with clinical research into a court. Were much more dramatic
6:40
than handing over a USB drive. I just you know, bring in like
6:46
the wheelbarrel. And you know, I guess the best part of the end
6:49
of the story is he won. You know, they said, wow,
6:51
okay, you win. That's hard to argue with that. That's reserve.
6:56
Talking this morning with a good friend Tim O'Brien from the Healthy Place, the
6:59
website find your Healthy Place dot com. That's fined your Healthy Place dot com.
7:03
Three locations right here to serve you, Sun Prairie, Fitchburg, east
7:06
side of Madison as well wellness consultants standing by. They'd love to see your
7:11
smiling face this morning, or of course find them online finds your Healthy Place
7:15
dot com. That's fined Your Healthy Place dot com. And Tibby as you
7:18
were talking there too, just about you know, about helping people, whether
7:21
it's whether it's people with type two diabetes or pre diabetics, and you know,
7:27
get that message of like overall health, overall longevity, and let's talk
7:30
about using that word overall kind of the big picture mission at the Healthy Place.
7:33
People might be surprised it's really about longevity and really about living a great
7:39
life, isn't it. Yeah, dude, you know, life truly is
7:43
a gift and health truly is a gift. And our job, more than
7:46
anything, is to remind people of that every single day. I like to
7:51
say that we sell hope more than we sell supplements. I tell our team
7:57
that, and if we can remember that in every single customer interaction, the
8:01
goal for our community is to remind them the gifts of health and the gifts
8:05
of life, and we do that in a thousand different ways. So if
8:07
you're listening right now, and you know, what I would want you to
8:11
remember is that that health is a gift, life is a gift, and
8:15
that you're a gift. And you know, we might roll our eyes to
8:16
that if someone's saying that about us, but it's so true. You offer
8:20
something to our community that no one else has with your specific set of strength
8:24
and personality and humor. You know, all that stuff is so powerful to
8:30
a healthy, vibrant community. And there's so much intensity in life and in
8:33
the world and in our news, in our media. You know, we
8:39
need to take care of ourself. We need to nourish life and nourish our
8:43
health. And so at the healthy place, you come in you ask the
8:46
question, Hey, I'm low on energy. We'll tell you natural ways to
8:50
increase your energy and you'll feel better. You know, you come in,
8:52
Hey I have too much stress. We'll find there's natural supplements that really help.
8:56
And I'll tell you, Sean, there's nothing cooler than somebody coming in,
9:00
you know what. We'll kind of like, not sure what they're looking
9:03
for, and that's okay. They're sort of like, Hey, I'm just
9:05
gonna gonna test something out. There's nothing cooler to me than having that conversation
9:11
talking to them a couple of weeks later from a simple supplement that costs thirty
9:15
bucks and it can radically change your life. And I'm not exaggerating there.
9:18
Because energy. If you don't have any energy, you're dragging yourself around.
9:24
If you don't have you know, quality of life. You know, if
9:26
you have too much stress, anxiety, depression, you have sleep problems,
9:31
all of these things, you know, you know, join the club.
9:35
The rest of the community is battling these issues too, and there's natural alternatives
9:39
that work. You don't always have to go down a drug train or a
9:43
surgery train. There's natural alternatives that work, and that's our job to help
9:46
educate on that. You know, one of the things I've loved over the
9:50
decade or oh nearly decade, you and I have been been talking, which
9:52
is hard to believe, but it's it's been so informative. It is we're
9:56
just we're just we're just a couple of years off from a It's amazing to
10:00
think. And of course people always ask me what's Tim like and I always
10:03
tell them he's just the same guy you get on the radio, is the
10:07
same guy that you see when you get to hang out with them. But
10:09
the other thing I love hearing is is when people tell me about their personal
10:13
experiences. And we get callers too that call the show each and every week
10:16
that that share their story and kind of reflect that mission that you were talking
10:20
about. And when you say things like, you know, changing lives with
10:24
supplements and people actually calling back saying I had this issue that was that was
10:28
holding me back from you know, from achieving things or affecting my quality of
10:31
life, affecting my relationships with my family and other things. And then they
10:35
call back a week or a month later and say, oh my goodness,
10:39
and folks can listen to back the podcast. It's absolutely thing I think.
10:43
I think the misconception is is that there's these national chain health food stores,
10:46
and actually they're the folks that got me into this trade. So I love
10:52
them and I'm not knocking them. But I think our community views if they
10:54
haven't been into our stores, they sort of view us as the same,
10:58
like all another supplement store, another health food store, Like we're dynamically different
11:03
because we've created something intentionally dynamically different. And when you come into our stores,
11:09
you'll see a wellness consultant who was hired based on integrity and passion,
11:13
not on knowledge and sales training. You know, knowledge can be learned,
11:20
and integrity and passion cannot be cannot be taught. You know, you need
11:24
to either have it or you don't. So you come into our stores and
11:28
then we run our stores on core values like community and customer and integrity and
11:33
knowledge, and so then it's sort of you we created. It's just it's
11:39
I'm real proud of it. John because we created this army of wellness consultants.
11:43
So when you call our store, when you come into our store and
11:46
you have an honest question around your health or a loved one's health, you're
11:50
going to get a passionate response with several options that have been tried and true.
11:56
You know, we we are like a I like to say, a
11:58
wellness consultant army, working with our community, constantly communicating with each other,
12:03
what worked for this, what works for that. Hey this didn't work when
12:07
I tried this for migraines, but hey we found this that did, and
12:11
we as a team keep improving and you know, thirteen goodness, fourteen years
12:16
into this thing, we have gotten really good. You know, I say
12:20
it again and again. We don't pretend to be doctors or pharmacists. You
12:24
know, we have some of the best in the world here in Madison,
12:26
Wisconsin. What we do and what we do extremely well, is our expertise
12:31
around supplements, brands, good better best, forms of ingredients, good better
12:35
best, what's working for this or that in the natural supplement nutracurceutical space,
12:41
good better best. We know nutrition, and we will guide you, will
12:45
be a light, will point in the right direction. And that's what we're
12:48
passionate about, not being the only source, but joining arms with the other
12:52
sources in Madison and Dane County. That's literally changing our community for the better.
12:58
It's really exciting. I really like those words. I'm dynamically different,
13:01
that is for sure. And that's a great thing about the Healthy Place got
13:03

13:52
Place dot com. I got a bunch of great emails, great questions before
13:56
we get to that real quick, tim. I know you're in Hawaii,
13:58
so you may not it may not have heard, although I bet you've probably
14:01
got some emails and some calls from from folks. Get a little bit of
14:05
snow here the last yes, Yeah, taking it all in, which which
14:16
means a lot of us are going to start spending more time indoors and closed
14:18
spaces around around people. And one of the things that happens. As much
14:22
as we love spending time with folks, sometimes those folks are carrying germs and
14:28
other illnesses, and there are things you can do to really give your immune
14:31
system the best odds to fight back again against those And I know you guys
14:35
bundle some things together as well at the Healthy Place. But it's really an
14:37
important conversation to be having this time of year, your overall health when it
14:41
comes to the changing of the seasons. Oh yeah, I don't think people
14:46
have any idea how much one supplement can do to boost your immune system.
14:50
And I've I've seen and my face has been built in supplements over time.
14:54
You know, I grew up in this industry. I watched my mom work
14:58
in a health food store. You homeschool growing up, and we go to
15:01
mom to work. So I would watch just thousands of consultation and I'd see
15:05
these people come back over the months and over the years and report their successes
15:09
and their victories and their challenges, and you just start to get it in
15:13
your DNA and then starting to actually, you know, sell myself supplements and
15:18
journeying with these individuals for years and years and years. I think of some
15:22
of my favorite customers that have just been there since the early days, and
15:26
you know, you get to journey with these people and you watch it and
15:28
then you watch it in your own life, and you watch it in your
15:31
kids' life of how much of a difference one supplement can make in a virus
15:37
or a sickness or a flu. And so I'd like to bring up a
15:39
couple of things. You know, hey, you get the flu, everybody
15:41
should have activated charcoal capsules in their house. First fine or symptoms or the
15:48
flu, take some activated charcoal. It's incredible because it absorbs bacteria. You
15:52
know, emergency rooms use them when people have overdosed on toxins or some sort
15:58
of poison control uses it for getting all the bacteria and toxins out of the
16:03
body. And flu you know, you have this bacteria and the virus and
16:07
activated charcoal absorbs it. Because it's super poorous and if you're looking to strengthen
16:14
your system against the viruses common this time of the year, elderberry is something
16:18
everybody, every family should have in their house. Elderberry is inexpensive and it
16:23
works. You know. I bring up the University of Sydney clinical a couple
16:29
of years back that it actually prevents bacteria or viruses rather from entering the cells
16:34
and it lessens the duration and severity of viruses. There's a bunch of products
16:40
that contain elderberry. Get a good one. One of our top favorites is
16:42
one called Elderberry Boom. You can go to our website type in Elderberry Boom
16:48
and that has a nice kick of your active compound simbucus, which is the
16:52
X compound in elderberry, along with your top vitamins and minerals for boosting the
16:56
immune system. And I would say this time of the year, just take
17:00
it for the whole winter. Something like elderberry broom one to three capsules,
17:04
one to three times a day. You can't overdose on it and void does
17:08
it work. It just works. Fantastic stuff. This morning, as we
17:11
talk with Tim O'Brien from the Healthy Place online find your Healthy Place dot com.
17:17
Let's find your Healthy Place dot com. Stop on end. They'd love
17:19
to see you east side sun Prairie or Fitchburg location of the Healthy Place.
17:23
Chat with the wellness consultants got more emails as well. Victoria writes in she
17:26
because I'm really interested and I love this email. I'm really interested in learning
17:30
about herbs and natural things that can help increase longevity. I hope not only
17:36
to live a long life, but also be as healthy as possible. I'm
17:38
in my forties and want to do my best to get started. Now,
17:42
what do you suggest? And that is an email from Victoria. Victoria,
17:48
excellent question. I like to bring up the foundation with this kind of question.
17:53
Within the supplement industry, there's your most important supplements, and I'll bring
17:57
up three, perhaps the most important and powerful and effective three supplements. You
18:04
take number one, I'd have to say would be Heira Cercuman. Kira Health
18:11
is our top selling single product. It's curcumin, but it's a specialized form
18:15
of kirkcuman because people are taking turmeric and standardized kurcuminoids that are not absorbing into
18:22
your system and that's not really giving the benefits because you're not absorbing it.
18:26
And so a curcuman form that absorbs well is everything. BCM ninety five is
18:32
one of my favorites. It's just a turmeric essential oils, it's sunflower lessis
18:36
in, and it's standardized kurcuminoids. Bound together those three it creates something called
18:41
BCM ninety five kurcuman, and it cleans. It cleanses the inflammation out of
18:47
your system, out of your body. And if you don't know, inflammations
18:51
like the root of all pain, and it's like the root of or a
18:53
big part of all digestive disorders. It's the root of or a big part
18:59
of all degenerative diseases. That sort of blew my mind. So you know,
19:03
from a proactive standpoint and a preventative standpoint, daily cleaning your body of
19:08
inflammation goes a long long way. And so once soft cell a day,
19:14
you know, costs maybe twenty bucks a month, not not very expensive.
19:15
That is, if if people come in like what if one phila day,
19:19
tim one pilla day, what should I take? It's that one here a
19:22
health order, a website, stopping our stores. Get it. Everybody in
19:26
our community should be on it. In fact, we have a monthly a
19:29
WC Wellness Consiltent Strategy meeting and we're asking the question, how do we get
19:33
more of our community cleaning the inflammation out of their body. So we're literally
19:37
having that conversation. Number two, believe it or not is a quality.
19:42
And I say quality because most of them out there are not quality. Multi
19:47
vitamin get in a capsule, not a tablet, because most tablets are heat
19:51
compressed and don't absorb very well. Get in a capsule. It breaks down
19:53
well. Lively vitamin, multi vitamin. That's our our top seller. And
19:59
I like it because all the forms of the ingredients. You know, you
20:02
need to absorb what you're taking. So if you have a bian koboaloman B
20:06
twelve that's synthetic, your body doesn't absorb it very well. Massive kobolomin b
20:11
twelve will absorb really well. So the lively vitamin CO multi vitamin that has
20:15
all your higher absorbed, higher bioavailable forms of ingredients. And that's just because
20:22
we all need a multi because we're all nutritionally deficient in one way or another.
20:26
Everyone's nutritionally deficient in one way or another of foods. Not what it
20:30
was fifty years ago, certainly not what it was one hundred years ago.
20:33
Multi number two. Number three is a probiotic. So good and bad bacteria
20:37
in your body is always in a race which everyone's winning decides the state and
20:42
the health of the rest of your body. Enzyme production is backed up by
20:47
healthy bacteria, vitamin production. The list goes on. Gut health is like
20:51
the second brain, they call it, because your gut controls the health all
20:55
throughout your body. So take a good probiotic. That's number three, and
20:59
I'll see there because three the lot. But if you can get on those
21:03
three one each of those each day, that is a powerful approach to from
21:07
a supplement standpoint for general health general I was gonna say liability, longevity deivil
21:15
Brian from the Healthy Place. If you ever have a question, don't forget
21:18
it's always a great data stop. On end, they'd love to see you
