STOP Eating Like This Immediately - The ONE Mistake That Is Killing Your Digestion and Energy - with Dr. Len Lopez

💬 message Denise Dr. Len Lopez has been a licensed chiropractor and natural medicine specialist for over 30 years. He's the guy who coined the phrase “eating right and training smart,” and he’s sharing how that’s expanded into a whole philosophy for success in every area of life.We start by diving into what "healthy" really means, especially for those of us navigating our 40s, 50s, and beyond. Dr. Len dropped some serious wisdom about digestion that was a total lightbulb moment for me. He explained that, just because you ate something doesn't mean your body absorbed the nutrients! We get into the crucial role your gut plays, and how eating how you eat (not just what you eat) can literally turn your digestive system off. Think less "warrior on a horse with a turkey leg" and more "sit, eat, and relax."But the conversation really takes off when we talk about his "Five Steps a Day" app, which helps you build success from the inside out. He breaks down the acronym S.T.E.P.S. and how tracking these small, daily actions for your body, mind, and spirit can create massive change. It’s all about those tiny, actionable steps that fill up your bucket and move you out of negative self-talk and into a virtuous cycle of life.This conversation is simple, clear, and powerful, and it’s going to give you the perfect actionable next step for wherever you are in your journey.I loved what Dr. Len said about knowing your "Land of Milk and Honey" - your goals - because if you don't know where you're going, don't be surprised if you land in the land of headaches and heartaches. This is a must-listen for anyone who wants to take charge of their well-being and mindset!To connect with Dr. Len Lopez and check out the Five Steps a Day app, you can find more information here:Website: www.DrLenOnline.comSocial Media: https://www.instagram.com/drlenlopez/Thank you for spending time with me today on the Thrive After 45™ podcast!
