What is the Daily Wellness Score?

My “Wellness Score” is an integrative wellness approach and targeted nutrition designed for wellness and longevity. This score is based on cutting-edge applied science. 

What does applied science mean? It means we have tried this with thousands of people and it works. 

The Wellness Longevity Score is my life's work of precision nutrition medicine and lifestyle medicine simplified into a 20-point score made up of the 10 best foods and 10 health habits that turn on healing in the body. 

Score points are added for eating plant foods and score points are subtracted for eating processed sugars and animal foods. Score points are also added for practicing health habits associated with beating disease and living longer.  Score points are subtracted for smoking or vaping and for drinking alcohol above one drink per day.   

A higher total score indicates eating and living a lifestyle that is aligned with wellness.  A diet and lifestyle that turns on our body’s ability to fight disease, boost immunity, heal the gut, regenerate our blood vessels, change genetic expression, and improve our mood and cognitive function, while improving energy and performance and allowing us to live younger --- longer.

How The Score Has Transformed Thousands of Lives

I have observed people from all walks of life over the last decade who have used The Score as a simple tool to educate, inspire, and motivate to stay on track for a lifetime of wellness.

I have heard their stories that getting scores of 18+ out of 20 points see cravings change in just ten days.

Meals with fewer calories start making them full longer. 

Muscle mass increases while body fat drops, and those overweight experience healthy weight loss.

Their waist circumference drops up to an inch in just ten days. 

Symptoms and risk biomarkers such as high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high fasting insulin, and elevated cholesterol all improve while reducing the need for medication in just ten days with a score of 18+ out of 20 points.

When you start to practice a lifestyle with a score of 18 points or above for 10 days, you're guaranteed to move toward your targeted health goals, and when you practice scores of 18 points or above for a lifetime, you’re living a lifestyle associated with living longer.

Treating the Root Cause 

I have seen the quality of life of our TakeTEN^Ⓡ patients and TakeTEN^Ⓡ program participants drastically change from mental fog to clarity and fatigue to energy. These results happen because we are treating the root cause of the problem; we are eating the foods and practicing health habits that reduce the risk for disease by triggering healing in the body. 

This happens through boosting the immune system, healing the gut flora, healing blood vessels, reducing blood pressure, changing genetic expression, regenerating body tissue, and fighting cancer.   All important physiologic responses to what we eat and how we live defeat disease, promote wellness, and help us live younger longer.

We're also physiologically changing the body's hunger and fullness cues to drive us to eat more of what makes us well and less empty and excessive calories. Eating the right foods in the right amounts fuels our body with sustained energy and gives us the energy to do MORE of what makes us well.

The Importance of a Wellness Ritual

Our members create personal wellness rituals based on their preferences, goals, and intentions. 

This Daily Wellness Longevity Score allows us to gather actionable insights from our daily habits, including our diet. Then, we can start connecting the dots in higher Wellness Longevity Scores with feeling better, feeling more energy, and significantly improving our risk factors, supporting wellness and longevity.

Once you experience this feeling, most people never want to go back to their old lifestyles that resulted in exhaustion, inflammation, and overall poor well-being.

Start your Wellness Journey

When you open up The Score, you’ll  see questions like, “How many cups of berries do you eat in a day?” and, “How many cups of beans do you eat in a day?” and, “How many minutes of exercise do you get?” 

Before these questions make you too nervous, take a deep breath. It is okay if:

• You are generally guessing, assuming that you, like me, don't measure your berries and greens daily.
• You answer “none” to nearly all of the questions. We all start somewhere, and the average score is 10. 
• You feel tempted to lie just so that you score higher - but don't do that! It isn't helpful; all good healing starts with telling the truth. 
• You see foods you never want to eat. I will do a deep dive into great replacements in an upcoming podcast.
