Are mask mandates coming back? While many states have thankfully passed legislation to protect their citizens from possible future COVID tyranny, it seems that the Biden administration is preparing to go COVID mode again this fall and winter. This all raises the question of how we should be thinking about our health and the practical steps that we can take to regain control of our health. I am joined once again, by my good friend Dr. Ashley Lucas, who many of you know helped me very much in my personal journey to regain control over my health and lose the weight that I wanted.   Highlights:  “Your belly fat actually causes your body to be inflamed.” - Dr. Ashley Lucas “During the height of the pandemic, obese individuals and even individuals who are overweight were more likely to suffer severe outcomes from the infection.” - Dr. Ashley Lucas “We’re a community of people who have stepped up to take control of our health and it’s important for all of us to have the support that we need going forward. I think maintenance is where all the work is to be done.” - Dr. Ashley Lucas  Timestamps:  [02:30] Dr. Ashley’s thoughts on the possibility of Covid mandates coming back [03:55] Why reducing belly fat can protect you and help you fight infections better [05:33] Other practical health tips you can take to boost your immune system prior to flu season [07:54] The common misconceptions about weight loss [11:02] Dr. Ashley’s free maintenance support program and why it’s very important in any weight loss journey [12:40] How PHD Weight Counseling works   Resources:  Get the tools you need and learn how to achieve your health and weight loss goals at our free Q&A HERE: https://event.webinarjam.com/register/148/38zwysw The Freedom Economy Index is a survey of over 50,000 small business owners in the parallel economy.
