When was the last time you got a physical exam? In your teens or 20s perhaps?

Do you know more about how your computer works, your car or your iPhone compared to what is happening inside your own body!? There is a very good chance you do.

Sadly, many of us go years without getting evaluated and checked by a medical professional to find out the status of our health. Routine physical examinations and blood work may sound like a minor thing to do but it can reveal so much about our overall health and wellbeing. It could even save your life!

Functional Nutritionist Gillis Pellegrin from The Educated Dieter speaks with host Chris Wilson about the simple things all people can do to take ownership when it comes to their personal health and living a life strong by design.

“You have to treat your internal health and your physical health just as important as you see something that is completely non-negotiable in other aspects of life.” - Gillis Pellegrin
