Eric Edmeades presents WildFit as a program reframing public health as an individual self-care issue rather than a healthcare-system problem. The program centers on two pillars: (1) identifying and obtaining the species-appropriate nutrients the human body evolved to need, and (2) radically changing psychology and relationships with food (undoing food-industry conditioning). WildFit uses education, psychological exercises, and community/structure to build lasting habits; it explicitly avoids exercise prescriptions, calorie counting, food restriction, or inducing hunger. Promised outcomes include changed food preferences and a feeling of true freedom to eat or not eat desired foods.

The paradigm shift that we need to have right now is that we do not have a health care problem. We do not have health care problems in our various countries in the world. What we have is an individual self care problem. That's the paradigm shift we need to have. We need to recognize that our experience of life is up to us. The solution at this point is two things. The one is to recognize that as a member of Homo sapiens, there are some specific nutrients that you need. And long before you think of giving up that or giving up this or I need to reduce my calories. No, the first thing you need to think about is what are the foods that my body evolved requirements for and how am I going to get enough of them? That's a major, major part of the solution. And the next part of the solution is to radically change your psychology. You see, what you need to remember is the food marketing industry is spending millions of dollars hiring psychologists and marketing experts to get you to eat food that boosts their profitability and destroys your body. And so what we now need to do is undo that. We now need to really, really begin to understand food. And I'll offer you one more thing that's part of the solution. Structure. It takes time to change and create habits. And so when you've got a structure where with a community around you, the odds of you making a change that actually lasts and creates a lasting impact in your life are magnified in a really powerful way. The Wildfit challenge is predominantly about two things. It is about correct nutrition for our species and correcting our psychology and changing our relationships with food. And we make that happen through a really careful combination of really effective, effective education and then really powerful psychological exercises that will help you to break habits and change relationships with food. You will truly start to dislike foods that you currently really love and wish you didn't. And you will also begin to really love foods that right now, maybe you don't and wish you did. Wildfit is a personal mission of mine and has been for a long, long time. And it comes down to this. I want people to enjoy their lives and I don't want people's lives being cut short or their quality of life being diminished by the greed and profit quests of all the food manufacturing companies and pharmaceutical companies around the world. We right now have a personal health challenge and we have a national, in almost every country, healthcare challenge. And we can change that. And so what you're gonna experience is very soft, incremental changes to your psychology throughout the entire program. And the end result is you're gonna have a different relationship with yourself and a different relationship with food, and you will find yourself fully free. What I mean by fully free is that you will be able to eat what you want and not eat what you don't want. You know, some of our clients come to us and they go, but, Eric, I don't want to. I don't want to do a whole health program because I love my freedom around food. But then I have to ask them, do you really feel free? Like, can you not eat ice cream? Can you not eat pizza? Because what I want to do is get you to a place where you cannot eat it when you don't want to. In WildFit, what we will not ask you to do is do exercise. We might ask you to consider some intentional movements, like, you know, going up the stairs every now and again. But there will be no exercise related to this program. We will also not ask you to restrict your food intake whatsoever. We will not want you hungry ever. If you are hungry while you're on this program, frankly, you're doing it wrong. We will also not ask you to even think about calories. You will certainly not be calorie counting in any way, and certainly you won't be restricting them. There are things, you know, that you're dealing with right now, and there are also some things that you may not even be aware of. In three months from now, those things will look very, very different. Welcome to WildFit. This is a program that completely transforms people's lives. And I can't wait to welcome you to the.
