Health is not just about the body. It starts with your mind and what you do to it. We all know that nutrition is one of the most important aspects of health and wellness, but we need more than that for optimal health and performance. Our bodies are much more, and there is no dispute on the importance of taking care of your whole self. Sleep, exercise, meditation, emotional and mental wellness, and proper fasting practices are also vital in optimizing your health and performance as an athlete at any level.

Join the conversation with Jimmy Moore as he shares about how you can take care of the whole of you by balancing nutrition, sleep, fasting, and workout. Jimmy is a Low-carb, health, diet, weight loss, and fitness specialist. He educates people on nutrition, low-carb weight-loss diets, and health to help them find a  health plan that works for them.
