Skin cancer rates have exploded.

1 in 5 Americans will develop it in their lifetime.

But almost no one’s asking:

Why is this happening?

Here’s the hard truth about skin cancer, what’s really causing it & how to actually protect your skin: Image
1. The Real Reason Skin Cancer Is Skyrocketing

It’s not just “the sun.”

We’ve been told to fear sunlight — when it’s one of the most healing forces on earth.

The real culprits?

• Processed diets
• Toxin buildup
• Mitochondrial dysfunction
• Vitamin D deficiency

Your skin isn’t weak.

It’s being sabotaged.
2. Sunscreen Is Not Saving You

Most sunscreens are full of:

• Endocrine disruptors (like oxybenzone)
• Synthetic chemicals
• Nanoparticles that absorb into your bloodstream

They block your body’s ability to make vitamin D.

And when they mix with chlorine or heat?

Some even become carcinogenic.

You’re trading sunburn for hormone collapse.
3. Your Body Needs the Sun

Sunlight is not the enemy — it’s medicine.

Daily sun exposure:

• Boosts vitamin D (cancer-protective)
• Regulates hormones
• Powers your mitochondria
• Reduces depression and inflammation

It’s not about avoiding the sun.

It’s about building a strong relationship with it.
4. How to Actually Protect Your Skin

1) Eat skin-protective nutrients: vitamin E, astaxanthin, zinc, collagen

2) Build your solar callus gradually (get daily sun)

3. Avoid chemical sunscreens — use mineral-based if needed

4) Detox your body (sauna, clean water, real food)

This is skin cancer prevention at the root.
The Hard Truth:

Skin cancer isn’t a random curse from the sun.

It’s the result of a broken modern lifestyle:

• Bad food
• Toxin overload
• Vitamin D deficiency
• Fear-based messaging

You don’t need more SPF 100.

You need to fix the system inside you.
What’s your number one tip for healthy, sun-protected skin?

The Bible mentions specific foods that fuel the body God gave you.

I’ve studied these, eaten these, and used them to stay lean and strong.

Here are 8 Biblical foods that support fat loss and muscle building:

1. Pomegranate Image
Adorned Solomon's temple pillars (1 Kings 7:20)

Antioxidant champions:

• May reduce exercise-induced inflammation
• Supports recovery
• Rich in vitamin C
• Natural nitrates for blood flow

Better than any recovery drink.
2. Fish

Jesus ate fish regularly (Luke 24:42)

High in protein and omega-3 fatty acids:

• Supports muscle growth
• Reduces inflammation
• Improves brain function
• Protects heart health

Modern bodybuilders swear by salmon for good reason.

Most men are unknowingly destroying their fertility every single day.

Here are 8 silent killers that are murdering your sperm count (& how to fix them): Image
1. Heat is your enemy

Your testicles hang outside your body for a reason - they need to stay cool.

Stop doing this:

• Hot tubs and saunas daily
• Tight underwear crushing your boys
• Laptop directly on your lap for hours

Switch to loose boxers and keep that laptop on a desk.
2. You're swimming in estrogen.

Craft beers, soy-loaded protein bars, and sugary desserts flood you with phytoestrogens—or stack belly fat that turns T into estrogen.

Fix:

- swap beer for mineral water/dry red
- trade soy for grass-fed whey, and ditch sugar + seed-oil junk

Hormones win.

Your body’s power plants:

The Mitochondria.

They’re responsible for:

• Controlling cell repair
• Turning food into energy
• Powering every cell in your body

But when they break down?

Your entire system collapses.

Here’s everything you need to know (& how to fix yours): Image
Image
1. What are mitochondria?

Think of mitochondria as your body’s energy factories:

• Convert food & oxygen into ATP (your energy currency)
• Regulate metabolism
• Control aging at the cellular level
• Decide if a damaged cell should repair itself — or die

Without them, life stops.
2. Why are they important?

When your mitochondria are strong:

• Energy feels endless
• Recovery is fast
• Mental clarity stays sharp
• Aging slows down

But when they weaken, dysfunction spreads everywhere.

Steven Bartlett just had a world’s top nutritionist on his podcast.

Alan Aragon.

He revealed shocking truths about protein, belly fat, & weight loss that 99% of people wouldn’t know...

Here are my top 7 takeaways: Image
1. You're Eating Too Little Protein (Not Too Much)

99% of overweight people under-consume protein.

"Almost everybody with body fat issues is protein deficient."
2. The "Metabolism Damage" Myth is Killing Your Progress

Your metabolism isn't broken - you're just moving less.

When dieting, people burn 200-300 fewer calories from fidgeting alone.

The fix? Be conscious of your movement between workouts.

Methylene Blue was discovered over 140 years ago.

& the medical industry has been hiding it from you…

Why?

A medical dye that became something bigger.

But how it works changes everything...
2. How it actually works

It supercharges your mitochondria, giving your brain more energy.

The benefits sound incredible:

Most men ignore their body's warning signs until it's too late.

But doing this now will save your life after 40 years old…

8 mobility exercises that heal and bulletproof your body:
To start…

Your body is designed to move freely through full ranges of motion.

Modern life destroys this with:

• 8+ hours of sitting
• Hunched shoulders from phones
• Zero overhead reaching
• Repetitive movement patterns

The result? Pain, injury, and dysfunction.
1. Deep Bodyweight Squat (2 minutes daily)

This single position fixes:

• Ankle stiffness
• Hip tightness
• Lower back compression
• Poor posture

Work up to sitting in a full squat for 2 minutes straight.

Your hips, ankles, and spine will thank you.
