About IDoWell
The IDOWELL web offering is a not-for-profit website designed to enhance public health by addressing the challenge that we know in medical circles as Metabolic Syndrome (MS). MS is a clustering of hypertension, diabetes, obesity and high cholesterol in people in our Western society. These conditions can have a hereditary factor in causation, but manifest in humans primarily due to faulty lifestyle choices. In its simplest terms, the lifestyle interventions that address MS are three in number, and they are simple to understand. Yet, they are not necessarily easy to implement, given the powerful anti-health media messages that surround us.
At the root of MS are three insidious lifestyle habits: a lack of adequate physical activity, a diet laced with refined carbohydrates, and inadequate hydration. The solution? We are glad you asked! To be healthy in America, you need 30 minutes of brisk walking twice a day, a whole plant foods diet, and two glasses of water before each meal. Does that sound too simple to be effective? There are many evidences from responsible research endeavors that show that these three interventions are extremely effective in banishing Metabolic Syndrome, as well as cancer, from our lifestyles.
Soooo… are you ready for the challenge? Remember that the interventions are simple, but because of habit and convention in our society, not necessarily easy to overcome. Still, anything good is worth fighting for. And in truth, the rewards are astronomical, in terms of good health, peace of mind, and a potential for a loving connection with our Creator. Join us on the Journey to Wellness!
