My about story, health & the love Italian food!
I grew up eating devouring Italian food and thanks to my Dad’s Italian friends, many weekends were amazing, loud beautiful Italian conversations and making fresh pasta and pizza.
Over the years I’ve tried many food changes, food eliminations and a stint of Vegan, but nothing worked and in June 2023 my escalating digestive issues resulted in an ambulance trip to my local Emergency Department. Five days later I was diagnosed with Gallstones and NAFLD. For a guy who studied a lot of material in the past 4 years about health and nutrition, I was scared and angry that I had allowed this to happen.
After a few decades of complications that confused the medical experts despite dozens of tests & procedures that no doubt were connected to the ED visit, I’m now enjoying incredible steady weight loss, zero bloating or digestive issues and feeling great!
During the aftershock of the diagnosis I heard about Earthing (grounding), which is the practice of connecting with the earth’s electrical energy through shoes-off on the ground outdoors or using special mats connected to the grounding system in your home power points. I decided to try it, the results began within hours.
In less than 24 hours of earthing my small eyes had opened wider than they’d been in my life, I checked the earliest photos i could find. I feel more energetic and healthy than I have in many years and my diet is more pescatarian with occasional organics meats but the butter and olive oil days are gone due to the Gallstones.
I’m excited to be on this journey with amazing foods and my grounded earthing mat and I’m convinced that Earthing will help me reverse my NAFLD. I understand that Gallstones are not reversible without surgery but there’s always a hope!
I hope my story will inspire you to try earthing (you’ve got noting to lose getting your feet on the ground) and take more care in the foods we buy and eat. We should understand more about safe practices, chemical treatments and ethics of the food we eat, more about this in my articles.
To better health and more music!
