Pharmacist Ben Fuchs discussed natural health remedies and the vitamins, nutrients, and minerals that our bodies need to maintain good health. He stressed the importance of understanding our mental states for a better quality of life. Fuchs explained, "You actually have two nervous systems: the nervous systems of fear and love." The sympathetic nervous system, associated with fear, can lead to various health issues, including hypertension and insomnia, while the parasympathetic nervous system, linked to love and relaxation, promotes wellbeing. He highlighted gratitude as a simple tool for activating better health, stating, "If you count all the things you're grateful for, you will activate the parasympathetic [side]."
Fuchs also emphasized the detrimental effects of stress on digestion and sleep, noting, "One of the worst things you can do is eat when you're under stress." He also addressed the connection between blood sugar and dementia, revealing that Alzheimer's is often referred to as "type three diabetes." Fuchs urged listeners to adopt healthier lifestyles to combat degenerative diseases, insisting, "You can not only prevent Alzheimer's, but you can actually reverse the symptoms." He pointed out the limitations of modern medicine in addressing chronic degenerative diseases, noting that 90% of healthcare costs stem from lifestyle-related ailments.
