Happy Wednesday! We are so ready for the Thanksgiving break! No matter what your plans, we hope everyone stays safe and has fun with family and friends! Don’t forget Shop Small Saturday! We need to support small businesses in our neighborhoods! At the half, we have Dr. Jen Myers from Sunwarrior on, so get excited! First up we have Dr. Jonny Bowden up talking about the credibility of research studies we see on the news, so let's get started! Jonny Bowden Dr. Jonny earned six certifications in personal training and fitness. Jonny Bowden is known as The Nutrition Myth Buster and is a nationally known expert on weight loss and health. He is the best-selling author of 15 books, including “The Great Cholesterol Myth” and “The Most Effective Ways to Live Longer.” He has a Masters degree in psychology, a PhD in holistic nutrition, and is board certified by the American College of Nutrition. His books include “Living Low Carb,” “Smart Fat,” “The Great Cholesterol Myth” and “The 150 Healthiest Foods On Earth.” Credibility Of Research Studies We See On The News We’re talking with Dr. Jonny Bowden today about the credibility of the research studies we see constantly in the news. It seems every health article cites a study like “Bacon causes heart disease” or the numerous studies on COVID. How do we know what to believe? Dr. Bowden heard a study on the news this morning, “It’s safer to fly on airplanes than go to the grocery store.” The study was done by the airlines! It doesn’t mean that it’s not valid, but they do have something to gain. When you pay for a study, you’re 5Xs likely to get the results you want. You want to look at the study and who did it. Were there phases to the study, i.e. Phase one, two & three? How many people participated? The vast majority of drug studies are done by Big Pharma. Studies are like diamonds, some are fake, some real. Have a healthy skepticism when looking at these studies and do your own research. Also, listen to the podcast to hear what Dr. Bowden has to say about holiday eating! It’s great advice and something you can use every day! Jen Myers Dr. Jen Myers is a Doctor of Natural Medicine, Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and a Certified Genomics/Nutrigenetic Specialist. She is the Chief Genomics Officer and Master Formulator on two Scientific Advisory Boards focused on DNA-based supplementation. Myers instructs Physicians and Practitioners how to implement Nutrigenomics into their practices to provide a more personalized approach. She is also a formulator for Sunwarrior plant-based proteins and has published a number of articles on their behalf. Sunwarrior and Nutrigenomics Dr. Jen Myers talks about Nutrigenomic Testing. It’s a way to look at our cells and genes and find out if we have any glitches in our DNA that may cause us to have issues with nutrition and weight. It looks at your nutritional pathways. Do you utilize nutrients effectively? She says that more than 75% have a significant genetic issue with nutritional pathways and converting certain nutrients. For instance, some can’t absorb folic acid normally, and we need that for our “gasoline” to run our system. Dr. Myers says don’t wait until you have a health issue to take a nutrigenomics test. Would you wait for your car to run out of oil? Everyone should have this test to know which vitamins to take. The number one reason people use supplements is to feel better. What if you could know exactly what your body needed? It’s just a cheek swab to get the results. Thank You! A big thank you to our guests, Dr. Jonny Bowden and Dr. Jen Myers, formulator for Sunwarrior. Visit her website for more insight! If you would like to purchase any of Dr. Jonny’s books, click here. Thank you to all of our One Life Radio listeners. We truly appreciate each and every one of you, so If you’d like to hear more from One Life Radio, please subscribe to our podcast.

Brittany Madera sat down with Jodi August of the Greater DuBois Chamber of Commerce to talk about the importance of Shop Small Saturday.
It’s the weekend after Thanksgiving here in the U.S. and for a lot of entrepreneurs, this is when you send out all your messages promoting your deal for Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Shop Small Saturday, or whatever you want to call it. Whether you’re running a ‘sale’ this weekend or not for your course, your book, your coaching, your mastermind, or any other sale, I would love for this to be your last sale you ever run. Ever. I made the mistake of running different sales to my digital products. Did I make money? Sure, quite a bit, but what it cost me was perceived value. People who bought my course at $297 instead of $497 automatically started to see what my sale telegraphed: that I didn’t believe the value of my course was worth it’s posted price. Don’t discount your genius, that insight you worked so hard to develop and refine to serve your audience. If you want to add value, give bonuses on top of your set price for your products. It adds even more value without cheapening the insight you already infused into your product or service. By adding bonuses, you raise the ceiling on the value instead of lowering the floor. Have a great day today and remember, your Message matters! The Keynote Clarity for Thought Leaders Flash Briefing is presented by Jon Cook, founder of Keynote Content. Jon and his team help thought leaders, namely speakers, coaches, and consultants, craft and share their messages to better serve their audiences. Connect with Jon and his team at Keynote Content by visiting keynotecontent.com. You can subscribe to The Keynote Clarity for Thought Leaders Flash Briefing by visiting bit.ly/KeynoteClarity and enabling it there. Then, all you have to say is, “Alexa, what’s my flash briefing?”
