How to Tell if You are Healthy

Are you healthy? This video shows you how to tell if you are healthy. It is based upon an often quoted recent study on what percentage of Americans are healthy. There is a link to the study below. I review the factors that tell a person’s metabolic health. The factors that control one’s health include blood pressure, waist circumference, glucose control, lipids, medications amongst other things. Tune in and find out to see how to tell if you're healthy. Like all my videos this one is closed captioned for hearing impaired and foreign-language viewers.

What a wonderful lecture by a doctor who talks with so much common sense He even includes his cats as an ADDED bonus to relieve stress which is so important to our health. LOVED & SUBSCRIBED

doctors often like chronic patients especially in society where health expenditure is covered by public compulsory health insurance. My motto is that the best doctor is the one I don't need at all:).

When my son developed multiple allergies at a very young age, I went down the rabbit hole of nutrition. I never went to school for it, but instead learned a had a thing for studying biology and understanding how the body functions. I’m a bit nerdy that way. It’s been an interesting journey and along that journey, I learned about how industrial food production took place, how marketing affects the public and sadly the medical advice sometimes regarding food, what is in our food, and how to prepare food in the most nutritionally advantageous ways. It’s ended up culminating in growing a large proportion of our food, and some of the traditional ways to prepare/preserve it for maximum nutrition. This has led to a pretty healthy family. Not perfect by any means, but I’d wager far healthier than average.I truly wish that more people understood how critical diet is to health! I think our communities would be far healthier and able to ward off disease and metabolic disorders.

I have social anxiety, so I always imagine myself petting my favorite cat when I am getting blood pressure taken at the Dr.'s office. It works like a charm.

Another concise, no nonsense, valuable presentation. The kitty is just a bonus...

Any day I don't have people standing over me saying "Doesn't he look natural" is a good day for me.

Laughter should be on your list, it reduces cortisol. You obviously understand this notion. Adding your cats to your serious video on health was a perfect example of how to have balance in our lives with stress reducers. Simply brilliant, and you earned my subscription.

I have been bingeing on your videos & I just love them. Your demeanor during your presentations & the easy manner in which you communicate inspires confidence. The videos are short, but packed full of valuable information. I just wish I could multiply you 1million times & populate health facilities all over America with your passion for educating people & helping us all to obtain an optimal level of wellness. You are a gem & I’m so fortunate to have found your channel. I am now a new fan & subscriber. Thank you for all your hard work, advice & help, it really matters!! PS the cats are a very pleasant bonus, they are beautiful !❤️

[DDLTex]

In respect to this Video it is worth saving because it has vital information, in which Dr. Moran includes body index, what is normal blood pressure and a detail PowerPoint . I really appreciate this information . May you have a pleasant evening.

Dr. Moran, the bringer of enlightenment and the friend of felines

[SophieBird]

I just discovered your channel. Your presentation is so refreshingly calm and easy to listen to in this shrill world we are in today. I knew it would be great when I saw the kitties.

[joannnorelius]

Wish he was on the tube educating everyone!😊. Thanks Doc.

[Jupiter_Crash]

Thank you! As the weather is getting rainier I just ordered a treadmill to get through the winter. It’s not only for metabolic health but mental health too. I appreciate your straight talk and expertise. Stay safe and healthy everyone!

[Ravenelvenlady]

I am perfectly healthy. I came here for the cat. Thanks Doc. ❤😻❤💖

[anitaalarcon]

Be safe you & family in Jesus Name🙏

I wonder if not being on medications is one of the key signs of health because, by definition, if you need medication you must not be healthy, or a recognition of the fact that medications themselves are detriments to good health.

[reidarandersen]

Thank you for posting these videos. This particular one caught my interest and confirm my good health. I have been consistent with exercise (my lifestyle)since my late 30ies and after 35 years of a regular regime of various exercise I can hook off the 6 criteria for good health. After moving to US in 2008 I found myself in a "dangerous" place, too much processed food etc. In Norway I could visit a restaurant twice a year, in US per week - at least. As you say : food as medicine and the other factors- imperative. Again, thank you. Love your cats.

[jerusalmit]

Why is it that the best advice is often free and we do not take it?
I ❤️ those cats. They make me happy, a merry heart is good medicine. Thank you!

[markburks]

Could you do a video on the topic of COVID Infection being the fault of unvaccinated? While this is likely true for those with comorbidities, I believe governing agencies are using this narrative incorrectly, as there is a known percentage of the population that are metabolically healthy. We should not be pressured into taking these vaccines. We should be able to have our physician sign-off that we have successfully passed this 6 category evaluation and do not require a vaccine because we too are helping establish herd immunity. I believe this is actually the highest state of protection our society has against this virus as well as the most common causes of death.

You make a lot of sense Doctor. This is great, thanks for sharing (oh and we like cats too).
