BEST Thing For Your Immunity Is To Be Fit, Healthy, & Lean

Contrary to popular belief, still the best thing you could do for immunity is to be fit, healthy, and lean. Oh, that was, hey, that was controversial just about 12 months ago. Can you believe that? Now it's, now it's trending news. Oh my God. Both sides of the fence. I don't, I don't care. Still to this day, there's no supplement, no, no nutrient, no medicine, no nothing that will protect you from disease. Like simply being healthy, fit, and relatively lean, not shredded, but relatively lean. And it's crazy that that conversation was almost censored or ignored for so long. I feel like you're fat shaming right now. It's not. It's just facts. Stop with all that. I know. This is more of that like misinformation campaign stuff. I know. That doesn't mean that you should treat people crappy if they're having challenges with that stuff. Obviously it's a very challenging thing to do for lots of people. So you still show empathy, but it's a fact. Did you see that the latest, they said that the right now, and this is kind of side topic, but right now 75% of people who are dying from the latest variant, 75% have, you ready for this? At least four comorbidities. Not one, not two, not three, but four comorbidities. I didn't think we had anybody. I thought only like one person allegedly died from Omicron. That was early on when they said that. I just heard that just like a few days ago. I don't know. Is that still true? No, I don't think so. Are they actually reporting that where they let you know there's those four comorbidities? That was a CDC director. That's great. What makes me upset about this is forget all the politicization around it and all that stuff. It's always been true. And I hate that, that that was never communicated to people. Now I will say, well, I feel like you could have done both too. Yes. I feel like you could have done both. Like, I mean, even the way, like I suggested to my parents, like I, you know, because they, I know how unhealthy they are. I was like, you guys should probably go get the vaccine, but you should also try and get some vitamin D. I think you guys should be exercising right now, trying eat a cleaner diet. Like, I don't understand why it had to be either or. I don't understand why they couldn't have also recommended that this is something that everybody should try and do. Because let's be honest, if you're morbidly obese, you're not going to get healthier fit in six months, you know, after that. But you can make it, Dan. Well, you can head in the right direction. Yes. You know what I'm saying? You can start to head in the right direction. And so I think that it just surprises me that we, we had to do this kind of either, or it had to be like, you were, you were part of the anti-vaxxers who were just going to try and exercise and be healthy, or you had to be pro vaccine and then stay indoors and **** working out and **** the sunlight. Like, why can't there be like, couldn't there have been middle ground? Well, okay. We have to consider this, that anytime there's something major, it gets politicized because it's like a gift. It's like a gift from the, the, the political gods. When something crazy happens and you're a because it's very easy to use it to make yourself look like a savior or whatever. And it's not a popular message to say this, Hey, everybody, here's something you can do. That's not a popular message as a politician with the popular message is always everybody else's fault. Yeah. This is what we'll do. We'll do this for you. We'll solve it for you. And so if you tell people, there's some responsibility on your end, you're probably not going to sway them or cause this division, which is very, uh, you know, beneficial to political parties. So it's just not a popular political message. Nobody wants to do that. Do you think that if this, if, if COVID would have hit us in a, a non-election year, do you think that the way the CDC and everybody else would have handled this would have been different? I think it would have been similar, but it would have been, uh, I think, okay, so here's the deal. Every two years or some kind of an election, whether it's congressional or presidential. So no matter what's going to be landing, it's always, it's always an issue that can get a bill passed or spending, or just to make your opponents look bad or make you look good. Right? So whoever's in power, obviously it's their fault. Everybody's dying. Oh, now I'm in power actually was the guy before me. It was his fault. Here's my solutions. Yeah. So, and here's the truth. It doesn't make you invulnerable. Obviously there's all, you could be fit and healthy and still have all kinds of problems, but the numbers show that at least two thirds of cancers can be prevented through a fit and healthy lifestyle. Heart disease, the vast majority of heart disease is prevented with a fit and healthy lifestyle, chronic autoimmune issues, great data that shows that either you won't get any, or if you do, the severity of them gets greatly reduced. Like pretty much any illness or disease or chronic health issue is positively impact by being fit and healthy. It's sometimes doesn't prevent everything obviously, but if you're going to go into a situation that's challenging, you can do. Yes. And I think that's, that's the most frustrating part being in the fitness and the health community. And I think that's why, you know, there was a lot of reserve with a lot of the information out there is because that was just glossed right over and wasn't brought to the forefront. It's like, well, what you can do is really make better efforts, better conscious decisions about what you're putting in your body and you know, how you're actually like moving around and exercising in order to maintain this healthy body to stave off or just make yourself more resilient. That's the thing. You just, you're more resilient when you're strong and you're healthy. Well, I want to officially welcome you to the club now. You're on, you're on, you're on team COVID now. So we've all, we've all officially gone through it. I am a little disappointed how easy it was for you. I thought you being the fattest one, you would definitely suffer the most. So I really, I really thought I was a little upset. I was a little upset that I think it was harder for me. Hey, you know what's funny? There's like a clear divide for a lot of things in our, in my mind. Listen, there's a clear divide. Like you and I, Adam are so similar in certain ways. And Justin and Doug are very similar in certain ways. And one of the ways that they're similar is they both seem to have mutant immune systems. You and I will always get the most. The fact that Justin didn't get it the first time, like it's hard to describe this room for someone is like, we have zero ventilation in here. We are all talking, yelling. It's like we're in a small hot tub and somebody pees. You're going to get pee on yourself. Yeah. And those were like the more nasty versions, right? And I got the little like lame, like weak, you know, I was kind of feeling something, but it was gone. Yeah. I know. Well, that's good. I'm glad that you're, it was, it was totally nothing for you, which is great. Yeah, no, I, again, yeah. I'm glad. Both your, both your boys or one boy has it right now? Uh, no, both, both got it. How was it for them? Same with, same like it was with me. They were just like sort of achy. And then, um, and then it just kind of came and went and now they're doing, you know, backflips and cartwheels. That's so awesome. And Courtney didn't get it at all. Not at all. Yeah. Wow. So weird. Bizarre. And for me, it was funny. Cause like, uh, for the longest time, I'm like, what is it? You know, uh, is it because I'm like, maybe it's cause I'm like more dirty than the guys. Like dirt under my nails and I'm just like always exposed to more bacteria. Just like a more of a bacteria guy. I don't know. He's always, he's rolling around in the tree. Yeah. Yeah. It's just like pig pen, you know, from like Adam showers like three times a day. I don't care, dude. I'm out there, you know, in the mix. You got a point. You got a point here.
