| 0:16.3 | It's a kind of irony that the more and more we get into it there is a potential pitfall where you can get so focused on the specifics of nutrition and trying to dial it in even more and more and going super detailed on stuff that perhaps |
| 0:21.5 | you're missing the bigger picture and doing things that are taking away from your overall health and again I mean that in the biggest sense of the world not just physical health that health and this is something I've talked about on a podcast recently is such a broad term that's not just physical health. |
| 0:37.2 | There's also like obviously psychological health, but there's all these other little factors that I would count as making someone a healthy human or not. |
| 0:50.8 | What's up my friend? My name is Ted Rice and today I'm coming to you from Bali Indonesia. |
| 0:56.0 | That's right, I'm on the island of Bali, specifically in the city of Ubit, |
| 1:01.0 | where I've been for the past couple weeks with my wife |
| 1:03.3 | Giselle and we're having such an amazing time I can't wait to update you on all the |
| 1:08.9 | incredible things that have been happening. I will tell you this, just recently I had the opportunity to go to a |
| 1:16.0 | cacao ceremony where we drink raw cacao, the stuff that chocolate is |

| 1:57.1 | loneliness, social isolation. And we even know that these other aspects of health that are typically left out of the conversation |
| 2:06.4 | when it comes to living a healthy life that these things have been proven by |
| 2:11.8 | science to increase inflammation |
| 2:13.4 | So even if you're exercising even if you're eating well and sleeping right if you've got these other things going on |
