Sup, you beautiful bastards. Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco Show. Buckle up. Make sure you're subscribed. Otherwise, it will punch you in the throat. And let's just jump into it.

Y'all, we are killing ourselves right now. Just with the little everyday choices that we're making and, you know, we're all going to die one day. But there's no reason we have to sprint towards it.

But the good news is that researchers in this new study have found that it's really never too late. Because while they found that people with better diets, they're up to 14% less likely to die of any cause during the study period compared to people with worse diets.

They also found that people who increased their diet scores, right, having better diets, but just 20%.

They had an at least 8% reduction in mortality and a 7 to 15% drop in their likelihood of dying from heart disease. And while of course there was no better time to start taking care of yourself than right now,

it was also really never too late. With researchers finding that if a 20 year old switched from a typical

Western diet to like an optimal Mediterranean-style diet, they could add on average 11 to 13 years

to their life expectancy. But they also found that if you are a senior, right, you're 60 years old, if you switch things up, you could boost your life by nine years. And this is something I wanted to share also because it's a personal story to me. For those who have been watching, you know this, but earlier in the year I started having health problems. As a part of that and really just starting to worry about quality of life stuff. I started taking better of myself. Since then, I've lost over 60 pounds. Quality of life much better, mental health

much better. I think a lot of that is connected to just being more physical and eating better

foods. And hey, that's my experience, not necessarily yours. I don't know what every individual person

is going through. But for me, this is one of those stories that I'm doing for the people that have

left comments over the last few months that are like, this is inspiring me to start changing. I don't even really feel comfortable showing you this, but maybe also that's part of the reason why it's

beneficial that I show you this. Health and body-wise, I'm not where I want to be. I'm very

comfortable with myself, but I'm not where I want to be. What I'm going to show you is it was

supposed to be two of three frames, with the third being a final. But just from making better food choices, this is what my body change has been so far.

I also kept that old video around because I, to a certain degree, I suffer from some body dysmorphia.

Like I am who I am on the right, but like I'll feel like I am on the left.

And so while, of course, this is primarily a news show, I also feel like I have a relationship

with a lot of you, to a certain show. I also feel like I have a relationship with a lot of you to a certain degree.

Not going to make it super weird and like push the parissocial relationship. But, um, you know,

if you were looking for a sign or a reason or, or to be part of something where people are already

doing stuff, I hope that today can be that spark, that it can make it so that this is your day
