Greetings and welcome to real men.
Feel is it your host Andy? Grant, I'm an author coach and
healer, you can visit the integrate.com to learn more
about w. Women feel exist to remind men
that they're human beings. They have the right to
experience and express all of their emotions.
We have conversations that most men are not having but that all
men can benefit from. You know, one of the most
emotional relationships, many ofus have is with food and that is

(00:25):
often mirrored in a love-hate relationship with their own
bodies. The best thing I did for my
physical health last year was a program called wild fit in late
2021. I went into a prolonged period
of depression and misery. I gained over 30 pounds in just
three months last summer, finally feeling better about
myself and taking positive actions.
Again, my weight was the final obstacle.

(00:47):
That's when I discovered my guest.

Eric's dedication and passion for improving the quality of

(01:09):
human lives across the world, was the inspiration behind his
Flagship program. Wild fit globally, recognized as
the most effective Health transformation program on the
market, welcome to real men. Feel Eric Thanks for having me.
Good to be here. So, I want to start, you do not
call while fit a diet. Why is that?

(01:31):
Well, it's really a matter of grammar.
Frankly, you know, with every with every other species on
Earth, we worker, we refer to their diet in a scientific sense
that you know like an elephant has a diet.
It eats about 200 kilograms of grass and bark and seasonal
fruit in a drink 70 liters of water.
And that's its diet, and, and a cheetah each 2.5.

(01:54):
Kg kg of meat. Fresh meat only, it won't eat
dead meat. That's its diet.
And leaf cutter ants. Well, they don't eat leaves, but
the point is they have a diet and it is only really humans
that go on a diet, you know, we've we do this with words
every now and again, where we change the meaning of a word to
suit some marketing Trend. So diet went from a species way

(02:17):
of life, to Temporary alterationto your normal day-to-day
existence in order to help you, squeeze in that dress for a
special occasion. You know, and and it's it's not
functional that that use of the word diet.
And by the way, Way, there's only a few like, there's a few
humans, go on diets and our pets.
Go on diets and by the way, who are the sickest animals on
Earth, Did you create wild fit because you had a challenge with

(02:42):
your own own weight? Or was it, was it something else
that prompted you to do it? You know I wasn't very I wasn't
very cognizant of weight as a problem, I was overweight but
you know, antibody morphologies.Interesting, when you're hanging
around with people, you tend to get a sense of your weight
relative to their weight. So you know, if you're at a if

(03:05):
you're at a county fair and Minnesota looking like, You were
me, you'd feel pretty bloody thin.
Let me tell you, but, you know, the average person would walk
around and they wouldn't feel particularly overweight because
everybody is in that condition and you know, I think that it,
you know, in my early 20s, I wasoverweight but what I was
dealing with that was more acuteto me was a variety of really
difficult symptoms. I had terrible allergies.

(03:27):
If I walked anywhere near a cat or dust, I would II my sinuses
would completely shut down. I had to just have problems that
cause debilitating pain. My doctor had ordered me to have
throat surgery. You know, I was like I was
really suffering a lot. I had terrible cystic acne and
so those things routinely sent me to doctors and, and those

(03:47):
doctors routinely gave me pills and creams and inhalants, and
even injections and all kinds ofdifferent things.
And nothing really worked for meuntil I Revisited my
relationship with food. So, and when I did that, all the
symptoms went away. But I also lost about 35 pounds
in the first month or so. And I wouldn't have said I
needed to. But of course, once I did, I
realized I did. Yeah, that's why I was really

(04:10):
impressed about when I when I first heard about this was that
you get this this program makes you healthier and and just
happens to lose you lose weight for a lot of people they do.
Yeah, it's a strange twist that it's maybe two orders of
magnitude more effective at Weight Loss than any other quote
diet that's ever been developed.And, but it's not, it's not a

(04:33):
diet program and it's not a weight loss program.
It's a lifestyle program but of It plays into a very important
principle. And that is that is is when
somebody develops a healthy lifestyle, which means being
well-nourished, but also runningthrough proper seasonal.
Change when they go through these metabolic modes, then what
happens is that they right size.And and by the way, that means
that our clients that are under weight gain weight, and I mean

(04:54):
it's our clients that are overweight lose weight.
And our client said are already at a normal weight and up
changing your body composition to a healthier competition with
a higher muscle in the lower, you know, lower fat level is,
what's unique about this. Compared to other diets is that
it's not sort of this temporary thing.
Well funny built into the question, right?

(05:15):
It's it really, it really is nota diet.
It's not. It isn't a diet in the sense
that it isn't. The temporary thing that we're
using a system called behavioralchange, Dynamics and effective
transformation, so that what happens is, as you know, when
you first of all, the programs very sticky.
So when people listen to video one, they want to listen to
video too. And they want to go to video

(05:35):
through and they want to talk totheir coach.
And so there's No, they don't have to pay attention the it,
you know, it's kind of like this.
There are books that you have to, like, force your eyes down
the page. And then there are books that
pull your eyes down, the page. Well, this program pulls you
through it and so that's a big part of it.
But the other thing is that the things that we do during the
program, create new neurology and and what that means is that

(05:58):
it helps people reduce the dependency on say, restriction
and willpower which is never going to work in the long term.
And so what happens is when we pull people People like year
after they've done the program, some eighty percent of them
report that they're still way ontrack and even those that report
that they're not largely mostly 90%, tell us that, they didn't
go all the way back to where they were.

(06:20):
They just didn't keep improving quite the way they wanted to,
and they could. So it's the whole point is, is
that the way the way a Diet Works is to give you a whole
series of restrictive rules, many of which are
counterproductive to the goal, all of which are designed to
harm. Self-esteem.
And and then you're supposed to use willpower to hold on to

(06:42):
that. And then, of course, the average
person, it can only do that. The average is six days.
So the average person can only hang on for about six days and
then they relapse doesn't work. And what is the food?
What is the eating in the program based on, right?
Okay, so let's say this that there are three, there are three

(07:04):
aspects of wild fit that are allrequired for it, to be this.
Effective and one of course is like robust nutrition.
You know, that that's the key thing on.
One of our principles, we have aseries of principles and one of
the principles is that your health is more dependent upon
and determined by you getting enough of your needs met, then

(07:26):
you eliminating things. So right away you know most
diets like they just go up to you and they rip your heart out
of your chest. You got to give up all your
favorite stuff. That's the first thing they open
with. Well that's going to be a
problem for most people especially when you get The
emotional linkages and the and all the stuff they've gone
through. So the the first thing that we
do is we focus on improving nutrition and where are the

(07:47):
nutritional knowledge comes fromis nutritional anthropology?
It comes from human history foodscience?
These days is it's so flawed that it's that it's irrelevant.
In fact, no irrelevant would make it isn't strong enough,
it's dangerous, that's what it is.
Irrelevant woodsy La, what. I know the food science that you

(08:07):
largely In the mainstream Press,today is actually dangerous and
I can just give you one example.I read, two conflicting articles
in the Daily Mail that talked about the health or not of
eating eggs, one article said that the eggs were healthy and
would even help prevent diabetesin the other article said that
eggs, increase the risk factor for diabetes.
Now, this is insane. I so I decided to do, you know,

(08:29):
I don't know if you know this but a lot of people get their
education from the headlines, which is clearly a bad idea.
So I decided to do something novel.
I read the actual article and then Went even more novel and I
read the study and here's what Ifound out.
Is that in the study what they determined was that a percentage
of the people in the study therewas flying around. 1200 people
in the study was done in China and a percentage of them found

(08:51):
that the consumption of eggs correlated with an increase in
blood sugar. So somewhere between that and it
appearing in this one of the most widely read Publications in
the world. The editorial, the writer, the
editorial staff moved it from correlates with an increase in
blood sugar. Sugar to creates diabetes like
you know whatever but then I went deeper into the study and

(09:14):
what I found deeper into the studies that it only happened
with women, that's odd. I mean that's that's odd.
So then I read the disclosures of this study and in the
disclosures the study they said that women on this study largely
did not enjoy eating eggs in theform of scrambled fried boiled,
or poached, and ain't. And they consume their eggs.
As baked goods do not spend cakes cookies.

(09:36):
And what have you? And that correlated with an
increase in blood sugar, and allof that gets translated into an
article. It says eggs, cause diabetes,
you know, so the so food sciencetoday is and is absolutely
bought and paid for half the time some companies are paying
to increase the demand of their food, the other half.

(09:56):
They're paying very heavily to decrease the demand of the food
they're competing with. So in this case that article was
almost certainly pushed ahead bysomebody in the carbohydrate
industry that wants to see people eat less eggs because
eggs are so safe. Creating that they, that
they're, you know, they want people to eat their eggs.
They want them to eat their carbohydrate products instead of
eating eggs. So we're in this game of Risk

(10:17):
for the food industry is fighting for our plate.
Share all the time. So I have a better question if
you suddenly got yourself an exotic pet and you had to figure
out what to feed it. Would you go to Harvard website
or PubMed? And look for the latest
double-blind study. That was funded by a pet food
company to figure out what you should feed your pet, or would
you watch the nature channel, right?
Right. It's nature Channel within an

(10:39):
hour. You would have a pretty good
understanding of what your animals lifestyle is, because
there it is in nature. Well, we have both present-day
hunter-gatherer communities and we have the archaeological
record, there is no question about the evolved human diet.
There is no question anybody whowants to argue.
There's a question just doesn't know or well they know and they
have an agenda. So when we look at nutritional
anthropology, we were able to create a very good makeup of,

(11:01):
not only what we ate, but in roughly, what ratios and also in
what seasonal Cycles, we ate them in and and that that's
where the Churchill underpinningof wild to comes from then I've
already hinted towards this is second feature.
That's very you know, that's unique and a big part of why.
Well, if it's such a differentiator is that we
recognize that not only did our ancestors evolved to survive

(11:22):
seasonal, fluctuation, but to utilize those seasonal modes,
they are important to us. It's actually important to go
through seasonal, fluctuation and, and when you fail to do
that, you put your body out of balance.
And then the third piece really has to do with the behavioral,
change the psychology of it. It will power alone is never
going to get the job done and you're changing Urology.
Has to happen in the program is designed to do that.

(11:45):
Yeah. And it does that amazingly well,
I don't know if there's a conscious gamification but it
was fun. Like every Friday you call it
enhancement day and it's like ohWhat's it gonna be?
What's it going to be in? The community is excited to find
out what the new thing is, it worth is new thing or whatever
might be. It was really interesting and
you know, a lot of other programs make a big point of

(12:06):
exercise as well. So how much exercise Is required
in Wild fit? Well, frankly, no exercise is
required. We encourage people to undertake
something that we call intentional movement and that is
to, you know, take extra steps and forego the Rockstar parking
and skip the elevators for the few floors.
And that's the leaders in that kind of stuff.
And, and, you know, we also don't discourage somebody, if

(12:28):
they want to go out there and exercise, unless there are
particular profile, which is to say that they're carrying, say,
over about 30 pounds. And they really have A fair bit
of weight, they want to release.And in that case, will often
discourage them from doing intensive exercise, particularly
if they're women because they, that increases cortisol
production, which has the effectof potentially slowing down the

(12:50):
weight, release the truth is your body shape.
In terms of, you know, releasingweight is 95% food and 5%
exercise that 5% exercise is incredibly important, but if you
do it in the wrong order it's frankly dangerous.
That's one of the biggest piecesI took out This ayat always why
I want to lose weight. I'm going to exercise more and

(13:12):
eat less, and, and nothing changed or sometimes, I would
even gain weight. So, yeah, it wasn't till I
realized, I was, well, family realize.
I was, I was putting my body into starvation mode and my body
was fighting to keep all the fatted could because it's like,
what are you doing to me? Yeah, yeah.
That's exactly what right? And you know, the the diet
industry on the whole, I mean they asked people in calories

(13:34):
trick, they don't understand that the metabolic response to
calorie restriction is to hold on tighter.
R-right, they asked people to count calories.
Well, that is also stressful andwe're raising cortisol level.
They asked people to wait, wait,wait, themselves all the time
that's stressful. They asked him to do intensive
levels of exercise, which most of them aren't in the physical
shape to be doing. So they damage their knees and
what have you and and then on top of all that, they asked them

(13:56):
to feel guilt and shame. When they can't stick to the
incredibly complex set of rules of the diet and of course, guilt
and shame are both food triggers.
So the diet industry is basically designed to damage
your self-esteem and Trigger food.
Savings as it always been this way, did was there ever food
marketing that we just accurate and trying to help consumers?

(14:17):
You know, I don't know that there's like one particular evil
executive working in a software company in Atlanta Georgia II
just you know, just randomly. But what I do think is that, you
know, I think with this way, I saw a comedian do this.
Once I wish I could give credit but I'll just, I'll just steal
it and hope that somebody knows where it came from.

(14:38):
But it's like, you know, you could get all angry and you
could go, that's it. I'm so mad at what the food
industry's doing and they sneak sugar into.
In their manipulative marketing campaigns.
I want to go to the food industry and I want to punch
somebody in the face, okay? Who you going to punch in the
face or you gonna go punch the girl at the retail or the boy at
the retail counter who's was clearly not their fault.
So you better go find the manager of the store but it's a
retail chain saw his faults now we got to go maybe go directly

(15:01):
to manufacture that Nabisco and I want to punch them in the
face. So I think I can't believe
you're doing this to us. Only that person's just doing a
job, that's the job they got. They're not, they're not evil,
they're just hitting the target.So why are they doing it then?
Oh, you know why? It's because the CEO that That's
who we gotta punch in the face. We got to go punch the CEO in
the face. We're doing it.
Well, the CEO toe is really justdoing what the board told him to

(15:23):
do or her to do. So, what we got to do is go find
the members of the board and punch all of them in the face,
right? You know, that you guys did this
to us, you see you board membersthat Nabisco.
It's your fault. Only only the board members are
really, they're really just trying to.
They're really just trying to dowhat the shareholders told him
to do so who are the shareholders?
Well, they shareholders are. The large Pension funds that

(15:46):
you're in my parents have their pensions in.
So we got to go punch our parents in the face.
You know what, I'm trying to getat is that I don't think there's
a specific evil person making this stuff happen and I think
occasionally there are people that in the food industry.
That really mean to do good things.
But if we take a look at like Kellogg's for example, Kellogg's

(16:07):
has, you know chemical materialsthat are in their food in
America that they have acknowledged are bad and that
they specifically Cause problemswith attention deficit.
Like, they've acknowledged that they then undertook to remove
those things from their food. They missed their own deadline
for removing them because a theyhaven't found the right
formulations to replace them yet.

(16:27):
With meanwhile in the EU, Kellogg's make cereal there
without those chemicals. Because in the EU, there are
regulations that protect the citizens against that kind of
thing. So you know it's it's hard to
know exactly when all this started but I will say this,
it's not new. And it really comes down to you
and me because if you and me 20,000 years ago were walking

(16:50):
along and we return to one of the camps that we as
hunter-gatherers would occasionally return to.
And we haven't been there for about two years and we sit down
and we look over and we go, oh my gosh.
What's going on over there? Like what Andy?
There's do? You know that one fruit that we
really like it's growing right? Where you and I sat last year.

(17:11):
Remember we had the handfuls andwe were eating, you don't think
Think we did that to you I mean something like that had to
happen right? At one point in time.
Some early human spotted the pattern we throw the seeds there
or we drop them or and they start growing along that path or
in that spot and the minute we spotted that.
Here's here's the next conversation.
Well Andy, since we now know howto grow food, should we grow the

(17:34):
yummy? Sweet stuff, or the green?
Bitter stuff. And that's where it all went
wrong. The minute.
We could start growing for pleasure.
So you've mentioned just now eating for pleasure but also the
guilt and shame are. What are the most common
emotional issues or resistance tied to food?
Wow, there are so many they and really it really all begins in

(18:00):
childhood. I'm sure you've seen this, but
you've got a child, you know, running down the street, trips
falls lands, lands, hard. Looks up immediately for parent
if it cannot find a parent and it wasn't hurt that bad.
And what does it do? That child just gets up keeps
playing but if mummy or daddy ornearby, you know, it's right and

(18:23):
no Mommy, your daddy being in. Good parents would do anything
to end. Their child's painting, the
cookie and the minute, they handover that cookie.
The child stops crying. So first of all the parents
learn shit, that works well and secondly the child learns.
Oh look, The Cookie is related to love and healing and
Anesthesia it, neutralizes pain.And so now, you wonder why it 45
years old, you walk in and buy aback box of Chips, Ahoy on

(18:45):
scarf. The thing down, well, because
you're in pain. So, there's, there's a bunch of
those types of things. But then, there's also the food
industry that have very intentionally attempted to
remove your capacity for conscious decision making by
anchoring emotional states to their food.
You deserve a break today, you deserve a kid cap.
I mean, it was entirely about trying to get you to go right in

(19:07):
and get their thing the minute. You are on a break and, and, and
like, let's be clear. They have the best marketers in
the world, because most of them are now owned by tobacco
companies. So in those tobacco people, they
knew what they were doing manipulating.
I mean, they were manipulating people into doing something
that's obviously not a good idea, inhaling smoke.
I mean, anybody sitting around acampfire, nose inhaling smoke is

(19:29):
obviously not a good idea and they managed to trick the vast
majority of the people at the time to do that thing.
And once they had to move out ofthat, they moved and took those
manipulative marketing. And addiction programs and what
have you moved them into the food industry.
So it seems we're at the mercy of unconscious parenting and
very conscious and deceptive marketing.

(19:50):
There you go, there you go. It's like, it's like, you know,
one of the, one of the ways to look at it is often talk to
parents and like, I don't reallywant to, I don't, you know, I
don't like sales and like well Itell you right now, the entire
Destiny of your children comes down to who the who's the best
sales people in their life? Because the drug dealer down,
the street is the salesperson and they're going to sell them
on it. Drugs, you got to sell them off
the drugs. So, you know, it really comes

(20:12):
down to that and the trouble is that most parents don't
understand what's going on with the food industry and they don't
understand. Like I was really blown away.
I was in a restaurant with some very good friends of mine and
this is some years ago now. But we're at this restaurant and
they had a little boy and he wasabout two and a half or
approaching 3 years old and the father ordered a Coke which I
just, I forgot people did that. Like, I forgot that people do

(20:35):
that. It's like, sometimes I see
people smoking to go. Oh my God, they still do.
That I didn't know I have sheltered myself, but so we
ordered a Coke and then he poured some of the coke into a
little glass and he handed it tohis son at two and a half years
old. And I'm like, Hold on.
Now, what is going on here? And then the kid wouldn't take
it because kids shipped it. Typically don't like new things,
right? So so they don't like new things

(20:57):
that's, you know, so that's why it's hard to get them to eat
broccoli because if they didn't grow up eating it, then it's new
and they don't want to have it. So the kid doesn't want any
goes, no, come on. Give it a try and get a try.
No kidding. The father took on the role of
the drug dealer. Come on kid.
You're gonna love it. You're gonna love it so much,
give it a try. And of course the kid does and
And there it is. The addictions begun.

(21:17):
Well, if it were me as a parent I would have waited.
As long as I could for that introduction to happen, I
wouldn't have forbidden it, don't get me wrong.
That doesn't work either. Forbidding it just activates the
child's desire to Rebel. What I would have preferred to
do is wait until it was unavoidable Because by the time
it's unavoidable, the child has a better sense of consequences,
you know, a four or five year old.

(21:38):
Child, can link up a temper, tantrum with the coke.
They drank an hour before they can figure that out, but not, if
they were already addicted from.M2.
I mentioned that some people's fears around hearing while fit
our that it's so restrictive. I can't live my life.
I can't go out to eat. I can't see people.
I've just got to, like, lock myself at home and not touch,

(21:59):
all the evil Foods in the world.Why would you say no, I can tell
you nobody, who does wild fit, says that?
It's the people who are thinkingof doing it, who think it's a
diet. And and so then they, then they
feel like that because diets have made them feel that way in
the past, a huge amount of what we have to do in marketing.
Say, look, it's not gonna be like anything you've done
before. Like it's just not, by the way,

(22:19):
you tell me on day one, when youshowed up, didn't you think it
was just like it was so different than anything you've
seen before you or even questionwhether or not it was saying is
that was that would that be fairto say?
Yeah, that's accurate. Yeah, it's that different And
so, you know, it's when people say that I have two different
responses, one is, you won't feel that way.
Once the once you've gone through the program because
you'll have new neurology about food and the other.

(22:40):
The other thing about that is that, you know, are you willing
to walk into a restaurant order food, you way you want to have
it and and you know because these days you go in a
restaurant and most of the itemson the menu, the way I look at a
menu is a menu is a badly organized list of ingredients.
The menu shows you what the restaurant has and the way
they'd like to serve it to you but it doesn't have to be that
way. And then some people go.

(23:00):
I don't want See that guy, you know, I want to be the bad guy,
you know. Can I have it with this?
And without that in a little bitof this and can you swap one of
the I don't want to be that guy?Well, you know what?
That guy is way less likely to get diabetes.
That guy is way Lesley. You have circular or problems
that resulted in a tation. And you know, vision loss, that
guy is way less likely to get cancer.
That guy's way less likely to have heart disease.
That guy is way more likely to live in his old age, and be able

(23:23):
to play on the floor with his grandchildren, because his knee
still bloody work. That's who that guy is.
And that has a lot to do with self-esteem.
It takes. Self-esteem to walk in and and
have it the way you wanted. It takes self-esteem to say to
your friends. I'd love to come for dinner, you
just need to know. This is the way it is.
For me, that take self-esteem and a big part of what wild fits
about is building self-esteem. A big part of the diet industry

(23:45):
is reducing self-esteem, and that's exactly what happened.
Somebody goes on a diet when they're done, they have less
self-esteem than when they started by the time you've gone
through the first three weeks ofwild fit you feel better about
yourself as a human being for pleb for a plethora of reasons
as you know? Yeah yeah some of the It's that
that I found unique to, it were the amount and level of coaching
happening, the the full concept of a being in a community.

(24:09):
This isn't something that that you just like, oh, I'll start
this by myself, my own schedule,like it's very organized.
And yeah, even again, it's ritualised with again with that
Friday waiting. What's next?
And what's it going to do to us now and, you know, that sort of
thing. But but again II surprise I
found it just surprisingly fun but the psychological aspects.

(24:30):
These were truly blow him out. Like I've done, I've done lots
of work but I was still like, shocked that every food that I
have ever overeaten was a food that was a reward in my
childhood and I never realized that and told you asked me to
look into it. Yeah, so it was little things
like that, that added up to Big differences.
And, you know, with my program ended on Thanksgiving Day which

(24:55):
was. I hope you can do Thanksgiving,
how can you? I'm like well we did it by
having the healthiest Thanksgiving ever had in our
lives and it was And you felt better the next day than anybody
else. Did after Thanksgiving.
Yep. Normally my normal Thanksgiving,
we always host, would everyone goes home and at midnight, I
finish like five pies by myself as a Penance as a reward.
And I feel gross for the next two or three days, that's my

(25:17):
normal Thanksgiving and that didnot happen this year and they
did not miss it. And then December, we went to
Las Vegas for a wedding and in some of the marketing, you say
you'll be able to withstand the most decadent Buffets in Vegas.
I'm like, oh we're going to put This is the test and yeah, it
all looked gross to me. I was amazed, I don't I think I

(25:38):
hope we were there for seven days.
I think we had one dessert. One set a really high end fancy
place. Not just eating like free ice
cream bars and just stuff like that anywhere.
So it not only did it work during the program, you know.
You you you there's a way of living the program.
So again, it's not this temp. It's a temporary thing kind of
with, with the structure but then it is really surprisingly.

(26:00):
Easy to keep going. If I know there are a lot of
foods that you are not a fan of,if they're if you had the power
to remove one food or so-called fake food, what would it be?
Well, you know it's sort of a funny thought exercise because
you know, you could you could you zero in on a particular
food, that that was like the linchpin or the Keystone

(26:23):
ingredient. That's in a lot of food.
You know, you could say well like refined sugar, for example,
but the truth is what I would doright now, if I really had the
power to do it is I would just delete all breakfast cereal,
just delete breakfast Europe because that's where a huge
amount of the problem. Starts for children and said,
they're being fed dessert. Every day before they go to
school. And we wonder why they have
attention deficit problems. And we wonder why they have I

(26:45):
hyperactivity problems. Well, guess what?
The number two ingredient on almost every breakfast cereal in
the world is number is sugar andthat in the old and generally,
if it isn't number two, it's because it's number one and then
kids are sprinkling sugar on topof it off.
And you know, we're honey or something like that.
So I would I would eliminate breakfast cereal.
I think Kellogg Kellogg did US UND.

(27:05):
I believe. He think he was, I think he
thought he was doing the right things and he had people going
on fasting and all kind of stuffyou just have leave.
Misguided and and he and being as misguided it is, he's now
caused Untold death and harm to hundreds of thousands millions
of people. And so I would I would remove
breakfast cereal if I could do it and we mentioned all sorts of
health issues and diseases that come about from the eating, the

(27:27):
wrong things. So is it truly the most
effective and cost-effective andspeed effective way to eliminate
Disease by changing. What we put in our bodies, You
know? Yeah, I can give you some sort
of, I suppose relatively hard evidence of that you see the,

(27:48):
your body wants to be healthy. Everybody's body wants to be
healthy. So, your immune system, let me
just back up from it. You don't have an immune system,
nobody has an immune system, there's no immune system.
Your body is an immune system. Every, every part of your body
is working to keep it healthy and heal it and protect it from
pathogens. He's like, you know, the
closest, Part of the, the one part of the body, you could kind

(28:10):
of argue has the strongest role in say, being an immune system
where the two parts of your lymphatic system and your
capacity for producing antibodies.
But the truth of the matter is, if you trip and fall and you
start to feel tingling in your fingers, that's your immune
system already preparing, you, for impact, your producing
coagulants to stop you from bleeding before you've even

(28:30):
given cut, like the immune system is just phenomenal.
Your body wants to be healthy. And so a really neat way to look
at this. Is how long does it?
To create type 2 diabetes. Well at the level of seed oil
and processed sugar and garbage production.
We were eating in the 70s, it took about 40 years, it took
about now, you can do it in 20 years, you know, but still it

(28:53):
takes decades, right? It takes decades, how quickly
can type 2 diabetes, be reversed.
Well, first of all, there are doctors who don't even know.
It can be reversed, they treat it like a chronic disease so
they can subscribe you to medicine for the rest of life.
But the truth is its reversible in the vast majority of cases
and it can be reserved reverse. First and six eight, nine weeks.
Like it can be done quickly. So if we were, I've never

(29:15):
thought of it this way before but it just popped in my head.
Let's thing with this way, if wethought of it, like a scale, how
much weight is on the scale thatthat it takes 20 years to create
the disease? Only we, how much we only have
to put the slightest, slightest weight back on the scale and
turn the whole thing around and six weeks, you know, anybody

(29:36):
who's only ever about six weeks away from returning around
there. He's why?
Because the body was fighting the whole time, it was lifting
this phenomenal waiting. I can hold it, I can hold it.
I can hold it and all it needs for you to do is just take a
little off and then the body cango.
I got it. I've got it.
So, so what I would say is that,anybody healing from anything

(29:56):
injury disease, the first thing to do, is to get your body's
physical needs met. Good quality are good hydration,
sunlight nutrition, and sleep, take care of those things.
And then your immune, System is engaged and Magic can happen and
you can turn things around far more quickly than people even
realize how awesome. And then it may be that you

(30:17):
still need medical intervention.I'm not arguing against that.
I'm just saying that. What we do is we shortcut.
Oh, I'm carrying 40 pounds. I'll take ozen pick.
Well, only if you want to take it for the rest of your bloody
life because the studies are showing you come off it and you
put the weight back on or the vast majority of it back on and
you put it on quickly to the average person is only gaining

(30:37):
gaining. Something like Pounds a year, we
but apparently, I think something like people on his
impact, put back 70% of the weight within two years or
something. It's incredible.
Guess what once you start takingit, you're supposed to take it
for the rest of your life. Well, what if instead you just
change your lifestyle, you know,and didn't have to be on that
drug at $200, a month, plus the side effects.

(30:59):
So as Eric as the creator of lots of cool, beneficial things
products programs companies. I wonder what, what, what are
you most proud? Dove.
Well, I suppose you're asking professionally and I'm most,
really, I'm just take in children.
But yeah, taking take it how youtake it, how it lands with you.
I want I want it to be your answer and then there's not a

(31:21):
qualification on it. Well, I'll go I'll go with
professionally. The truth of the matter is that
I am most proud of wild fit professionally.
I've done some cool stuff in my life.
Like, I started a company that built, hyper-realistic trauma,
simulators that won awards from the US Army because we were
doing Hollywood, special effects, and we took that Tech
over. And we see, we literally saved

(31:41):
lives and I'm very proud of all that.
But the thing with wild fit is that at this stage, maybe
100,000 people around the world have been through our core
program, over half a million. People have been through our
master classes, we've helped people lose Millions.
Pounds. We've helped thousands of people
reverse type 2, diabetes and push a variety of other diseases
into remission. Get off, chronic medications and
massively, enhance their qualityof life.

(32:02):
And we're only at the beginning of that cycle and the joke of it
is I started as a hobby. I really like I started as a
hobby a and it's been my most successful business by far wow.
So I imagine that have you looking closer at other Hobbies
you have yeah yeah well pretty much everything I do now is a
hobby so that's good news. Cool awesome.
So Eric, what's the best way forpeople to learn more about About

(32:23):
wild fit. Well get wild fit.com is our
website. Obviously, that's a great place
to start. We even have a try wild fit
program where people can do the first two weeks of the program
and onboard themselves. And and and that's really really
a nice way to put their toes in the water.
You can also follow me on Instagram, I manage my own
Instagram. It's not an agency it to me, and
it's at Eric Ed needs and yeah, I think that's those are the

(32:47):
best ways. Awesome.
And I just want to stress to everyone listening, I pay paid
for the program. This wasn't some like, oh of you
have become my podcast. If I can do the program for you
was like that. Like I invited Eric on to want
to have a competition about thisbecause I was so impressed and
Blown Away by the program and the results.
And what am I five months removed from it?

(33:09):
And I think I'm three pounds above where the that
Thanksgiving morning when. When, after my 90 days, what was
your net change? You know, from the beginning of
the program, I was just under 30pounds. £30.
Yeah, only 29. It's really easy.
It's really easy to Discount that.
But you're talking about like ifyou ever if you ever if you ever

(33:31):
find yourself like it wasn't that big a deal.
Go take a backpack, stick 30 pounds, and it carried around
for the day and then the steering thing more than the
number is how like I've never felt as healthy.
Like yeah, I'm living on these the program is over.
I'm still living on the the vegetable concoction that that
you'll be introduced to if you do.
