founded his highly regarded Eleven Eleven Wellness Center in 1992, way before the now omnipresent concept of wellness was even a thing. Since then, Lipman’s holistic approach to health and command of cutting-edge nutritional science has garnered him a tony patient list that includes Sienna Miller,
The idea is, you make one change, it becomes a habit, and then it’s like a ripple effect. You know what I always say—it’s the ordinary things that we do and take for granted that have extraordinary benefits to our health, things people don’t even think of as benefiting their health, like listening to music, or going for a walk in the forest or on the beach, or having a pet, or being grateful, or being kind to others, or being of service. I mean, I could go on and on.
It’s usually not the food that is the problem, it’s what we’ve done to the food. That’s a perfect example. Natural fats, avocados, coconut oil, meat from grass-fed animals, eggs, these are all good, healthy fats, and it’s only in the past 50 years that we fell into this low-fat ideology. For centuries it was never a problem, and it shouldn’t be a problem now. Hopefully, it’s turning back, and hopefully my book will help turn the tide and make people not be scared of food. Eat natural food.
Yeah, my take is that it’s the source of the meat, whether beef or bacon. If the pork is humanely pasture-raised and comes from a good source, then I don’t have a problem. I’m not a big eater of pork, personally, but I do love bacon occasionally. But only if it’s pasture-raised. Again, it’s that concept of what we’ve done to the animals. Meat or beef is an easier example. Cows are ruminants. They have two stomachs.
I mean, I know how good I feel when I go for a walk barefoot on the beach, or I’m sitting outside when it’s dark, and I’m looking at the stars, and I’m just trying to somehow articulate that there’s something healthy about the natural things in the world that we take for granted. There’s something about the natural world that is… I don’t know if the word is healing.The star treatment is simply sitting quietly and gazing at the stars.
Well, we don’t yet know for sure, but I’m very concerned about all this EMS, the electromagnetic fields that are created by all this Wi-Fi, and we’re just starting to see the effects on some people who are sensitive. You’ve got to be careful. Now, it’s always a balance. There’s a lot of good that comes with tech, just like there’s a lot of good that comes with the industrialized life. I just think we’ve got to be a little careful about being on Wi-Fi too much, etc.
Milk no . The rest sounds good
