Did humans suddenly require processed grain at 8:00 AM to survive?Or did we get handed a story—and build our daily life around it? The “Breakfast” story (and why it mattered): The idea that “breakfast is the most important meal of the day” didn’t come from ancient wisdom—it was heavily amplified by modern marketing. A widely cited example is a 1940s General Foods campaign used to sell cereal and promote a “good breakfast” as a performance requirement for work and school. To be clear: humans have always eaten in the morning sometimes.But the mandate—“eat immediately, eat carbs, eat packaged”—is modern. THEN (human default): For most of human history, food was: - Seasonal + local - Protein-forward (when available) with fibrous plants - Naturally time-restricted (periods of scarcity were normal) - Minimal ingredients (because “ingredients lists” didn’t exist) Your nervous system was designed for alertness when hungry (“hunter mode”).That’s not starvation—that’s adaptive biology. NOW (the modern food environment): Over the last ~150 years, the biggest shift isn’t that we eat more.It’s what we eat—and how engineered it has become. 1) Ultra-processed food became the default Today, over half of calories in the U.S. come from ultra-processed foods. And historically, processed/ultra-processed foods rose from under 5% to over 60% of the food supply across the last two centuries. Ultra-processed = food designed for shelf life + hyper-palatability, not human thriving. 2) The rise of “always eating” We went from “eat when you can” to structured grazing: - breakfast snack - lunch snack - dinner dessert Constant stimulation → constant insulin signaling → constant appetite noise (for many people). 3) The metabolic disease curve didn’t come out of nowhere Adult obesity prevalence is now around 40% in the U.S. That’s not a willpower failure. That’s an environment failure. And yes—many things contribute (stress, sleep, toxins, sedentary life, meds, etc.).But food is the daily signal that hits your hormones, gut, brain, mitochondria, and immune system.

MORNING — Simple/Beginner Routine (10–30 minutes, no perfection needed) Today I posted my own morning routine on Facebook - for those interested in a paired down beginner version to create consistency and build better habits, I’m posting one here! (my original facebook post is here: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1MkfaGhPCc/?mibextid=wwXIfr) If you’re overwhelmed, start here. This is the “minimum effective dose” morning routine that builds energy + blood sugar stability. Step 1 (first 5 minutes): Hydrate - 16–24 oz water - Add a pinch of sea salt or electrolytes if you have them Step 2 (within 30–60 minutes): Protein-first Pick ONE: - 3 eggs + fruit (or sautéed veggies) - FAGE full fat (5%) plain Greek yogurt + berries (or Good Cultures full fat fermented cottage cheese) - 1 scoop of I Am Amino - Leftovers: meat + avocado - Goal: ~25–35g protein (start with 20g if that feels hard) Step 3 (10 minutes): Light movement Pick ONE: - 10–20 min easy walk - 5–10 min mobility + stretching - 10 minutes on LifePro Vibration Plate - 3 rounds: 10 squats + 10 wall pushups + 30 sec plank(Keep it easy. Consistency > intensity.) Step 4: Caffeine rules (optional) If you drink coffee: - Have it after water + some protein - Add electrolytes later in the morning if you tend to feel shaky/tired and to replace magnesium loss. Step 5: One anchor habit Choose ONE for the next 7 days: - Protein-first breakfast - 10-minute walk - No phone for the first 10 minutes - In bed 30 minutes earlier That’s it. Do this 5 days/week and you’ll feel a difference.

Hey Bedrock Nation — if you’re feeling puffy, inflamed, snacky, or like you need a clean “reboot,” this is one of my favorite tools to reset the terrain. ✅ I just uploaded our Guided 72–84 Hour Fast handout. It walks you through: - Why 72+ hours matters (gut microbiome + immune reset signals) - The stages of fasting (what’s happening in your body at 0–12, 12–24, 24–48, 48–72+ hours) - What to expect (hunger waves, energy shifts, brain fog → clarity) - Electrolyte strategy to make this feel doable - How to break the fast correctly so you don’t wreck your gut or digestion - A simple Sunday → Thursday 84-hour schedule you can follow Important: This is designed as a true guided protocol — not just “not eating.” Your plan matters. 🔗 Download the handout here: 🧂 Electrolytes we recommend: Hydrate, SALTT or our DIY electrolyte recipe "ketoraid" and possibly, IDLife LOAD or I AM Aminos for muscle support (see your team member for help) Before you start — comment below with: 1. Your start date (Mon is my favorite) 2. Your fasting goal (bloating, cravings, insulin resistance, autoimmune flare reset, etc.) 3. Your biggest concern (headaches, low energy, sleep, social events) I’ll be watching the thread and coaching you through the common speed bumps. 🤍— Leanna For more understanding on the how and why of fasting take the FREE mini course by clicking on the classroom tab above!
