#687: Bulletproof Your Immune System: Beyond Flu Shots and Fear

Every fall, it starts the same way.

You run into the grocery store for whatever you need for dinner.

And before you even get to the front door, you've got a sign out front that says flu shots today.

No appointment needed.

Get five dollars off your order.

Get some fuel points.

Absolutely free.

So here's a question worth carrying with you every time you see that sign.

When was the last time anybody handed you a free product, particularly pharma, plus a coupon for taking it purely because they were worried about your health? Because we know that that's their primary concern, right? Welcome to Vitality Radio.

I'm Jared St. Clair.

And today we're going to Talk about bulletproofing your immune system and without the need for any kind of pharmaceutical intervention.

We're going to do this by flipping the conversation you hear every single cold and flu season.

The mainstream conversation is all about the germ.

Avoid it.

Sanitize it.

Inject against it.

My conversation today is about you, your terrain, the soil that that germ comes in contact with.

Today, we take a hard look at the flu shot, follow the money behind it and spend most of our time on the part that's fully in your control, which is taking care of your body.

If you've rolled up your sleeve for a long time and taken that flu shot, I'm not here to shame you.

I'm here to hand you some information that nobody at the pharmacy counter is likely to do.

I see these signs every year.

I see flashing billboards at Walgreens and CBS and here at Smith's, but that's Kroger or any of the number of grocery stores that you have around your place, Publix or whatever it is.

And they're everywhere and they're all free.

And a lot of times they're giving you a coupon to take it.

Why? Why this aggressive push? Well, we'll get into that in just a minute.
