Short talk by Aaron Hartman, MD arguing that the human body has an innate ability to self-heal which is often blocked by lifestyle and environmental factors (processed food, poor sleep, chronic stress, polluted/moldy buildings). He recommends basic interventions—real food, clean fats, eight hours sleep, stress reduction, distancing from toxic relationships—to restore self-repair and claims large shares of major diseases are attributable to diet and exercise.

Your body wants to heal, you just gotta get out of the way. So what do I mean by that? Your body has this natural ability to self heal and self repair. But we put roadblocks in the way. We eat processed food, we don't get enough sleep, we stress all the time. We live in moldy buildings with unclean air. And all of a sudden these roadblocks block our body's ability to self heal and self repair. Well, guess what? Finding out where your body is getting blocked can help your body self heal and self repair. It can be as basic as starting to eat real food, using clean fats, sleeping eight hours a night, de stressing, getting away from those people that are kind of toxic. Then all of a sudden your body will start to heal and self repair. 80% of heart disease and 75% of most cancers can be related to diet and exercise alone. So all of a sudden these basics can eliminate the number one killer in our country and the number two killer. So get back to the basics. Eat real food, get sleep, de stress, your body will thank you for it.
