When it comes to your health, the reality is your blood pressure check isn’t enough. But the good news is there are plenty of small actions we can take every day so that we feel better — and never settle for less when it comes to our own wellbeing.
The more you embrace maintaining good health, the better opportunity you create for living a more energetic, joyful, and meaningful life.
My guest today is Dr. Allison Fox. She’s a practitioner of integrative and functional medicine in Maplewood, New Jersey. I’m so happy that she’s joining me today to discuss a more expansive way of thinking about health.
