Ep. 46 Interview with Travis Burch: Sick Buildings and the Pillars of Health
This is by far the most comprehensive interview I have done on how to be the healthiest you can be. Travis Burch was sick for 8 years "Muscle weakness. Brain fog. Debilitating fatigue. Couldn’t sleep. Couldn’t digest food well. Couldn’t concentrate on anything. Extremely low body temperature. Days of recovery after the smallest physical effort." Through constant research he turned his health around, and now shares his knowledge through blog posts, with his members, and with coaching clients. He has several pillars of health he has narrowed down from his experiences that will help everyone live a fuller and healthier life.
