Episode #204 - Protecting your N.E.s.t.

Dr. Hampton has a podcast called Protecting Your N.E.S.T. and I was so honored when he invited me to be a guest. The conversation was so good that I just had to share. 

Dr. Hampton is a board-certified Family Medicine and Obesity Medicine physician with a focus on helping patients reverse the root cause of disease.

To illustrate his health framework, Dr. Hampton uses two acronyms: 

N.E.S.T. which stands for

N: Nutrition (what and when you eat)

E: Exercise

S: Less stress/more sleep

T: How you Think/less Trauma

And R.O.P.E. which is

R: Relationships

O: Organism (avoiding the bad/adding the good)

P: Pollutants

E: Emotions/Life Experiences

You’ll hear him reference these throughout our talk. Both are great mnemonic devices for keeping health fundamentals top of mind.
