Ep 51 Rebuilding Health: How What We Eat...

Dr. Amy Shah
About this episode

On this inspiring episode of Save Yourself, I’m joined by a special guest—my very own son, Jaden. He shares his personal health journey, highlighting a life-changing incident that profoundly impacted his understanding of nutrition and overall well-being. 


Together, we explore the transformative events of the past year, such as Jaden's severe jaw injury and its aftermath, shedding light on how it underscored the importance of what we eat and how it directly affects our emotions, energy, and motivation.


We'll also discuss our recent family trip to Morocco, the benefits of good nutrition, and some practical New Year’s resolutions to improve 2025. From weight training to better sleep habits, and even simple dietary changes, we provide actionable insights to help you elevate your health and wellness journey. 


Thank you for being part of this incredible community!
