What if the men you admired growing up lived high on the hog - literally, meaning their sizable bellies, made larger with the fried and unhealthy foods they ate, were thought to be proof of good living and gave them status amongst their peers. “Man look at that belly! You must be living good!”
Randy Jackson, world renowned musician, producer, executive, American Idol Judge, and founder of Unify Health Labs, found himself in the ER being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and facing the fact that at 358 pounds, he was actually killing himself with food.
So what would you do if you wanted to turn your death sentence into a life reclamation? Would you take the advice of the professionals and get to the bottom of why the diets you tried never worked? Or would you decide that “what you don’t know can’t hurt you” and continue to eat like there was no tomorrow?
