14 Day Health Challenge
“If you can’t fly,
then run; if you can’t run then walk; if you can’t walk then crawl, but
whatever you do keep moving forward.” – Dr. Martin Luther King
Over the last year I have been making many small steps to improve my health. I started with a cleanse and supplement program from my own chiropractor. I feel much better and have so much more energy. I know as an athlete with CMT, I have to take extra good care of my body. I think it will help slow progression of my condition.
So I am going to continue progress with a 14 part health challenge sponsored by Milwaukee Chiropractor Dr. Jay Davidson. This doctor has a weekly radio show where a different health topic is discussed.
Here are the principles for the Maximized Heath program.

5. Minimized

day participants will receive an email or on-line video from Dr. Jay
