TRUE HEALTH doesn't come from medicine, surgery or specific procedures.
They help - and are necessary in urgent/emergency situations - but they don't build everyday health.
Think honestly: how many people do you know who take various medications, have had tests, treatments, surgeries... and are still not healthy - or feel that way?
The health that allows you to LIVE (and not just survive) comes, in practice, from these 15 habits that only YOU can learn, adopt and do for yourself:
1) WATER: drink a glass an hour to keep blood, brain and cells at their best, preventing symptoms of chronic dehydration.
2) RESPIRATION: 3 deep breaths per hour to optimize oxygenation, reduce stress and promote fat burning and mental clarity.
3) FOOD: ++ real food, ++ proteins, good fats and fiber; less gluten, dairy products, refined carbohydrates and ultra-processed foods (ideally with a functional nutritionist).
4) EXERCISE: always strength + aerobic exercise, several times a week, and move around every hour standing/sitting. More muscles = metabolic and circulatory “savings” to age well (including the brain).
5) SLEEP: 7-9 hours of quality sleep, in a dark and quiet environment, with a light meal in the evening, to repair tissues, balance hormones and consolidate memory.
6) SUN: a few minutes a day with maximum skin exposure (without sunscreen in this short period) for vitamin D, circadian rhythm and mood.
7) THE 3 OTHER HEALTHS: cultivate better thoughts, active spirituality and healthy relationships - mind, spirit and bonds directly modulate the body.
8) STRESS: reduce unnecessary sources, change the way you react and use meditation, exercise and stoicism to get out of hyper-alert.
9) INTOXICATIONS: reduce toxins (cigarettes, alcohol, excess medication, radiation, processed foods) and support the liver, kidneys, intestines, sweat and breathing in detoxification.
10) SUPPLEMENTS: correct deficiencies (vit. D, C, magnesium, omega-3 etc.) - always together with good habits and under good supervision.
11) PROFESSIONALS: study a little about health every day and have check-ups with GOOD doctors and other professionals.
12) LEARN, ACT AND BELIEVE: transform content into a plan, disciplined action and continuous review, trusting in the process.
13) IKIGAI: discover your purpose - what drives you - and do more of what brings you closer to it.
14) MEDITATION: daily practice to optimize mental/cerebral functioning, hormones and immunity.
15) STRETCHING: daily, to preserve mobility, posture, circulation and relaxation.
👉 That's just the summary. The complete, scientific and practical step-by-step is in my - free - PDF book and audiobook at https://dominesuasaude.com.br/
🔥 My challenge to you:
Read (or listen to) the book. Practice what's in it. If you really do it, your health and your life will improve - energy, focus, productivity, results, happiness and longevity.

These contents above act as a practical, simple and direct start. They show the fundamentals that most move your health in the right direction.
If you want to delve deeper into each of these topics and understand more clearly how to apply all of this in your day-to-day life, I recommend you follow the complete content below.
To get the most out of this step-by-step process, it's important to first understand why most people's health has gotten so much worse in recent years, especially after 2020 with the pandemic. This helps you recognize where you are going wrong today and why you need to act differently going forward.
Why has the HEALTH of the majority been bad since 2020, since the pandemic?
Laziness to seek out good knowledge and apply it to routine
Poor lifestyle habits
Metabolic triad: processed foods + insulin resistance + chronic inflammation
Hormonal disorders, especially involving cortisol and chronic stress
Multisystemic impacts of the pandemic (protein spike by the disease and “experimental immunizers”; damage to physical, mental/social and spiritual health; discontinuity of prevention, diagnosis, monitoring and care)
✅ Health system paradigm: focus on treatment rather than prevention, misinformation and polypharmacy (overuse of medicines)
Excessive exposure to screens and information, especially low-quality information
With that clear, the STEP BY STEP you'll find below will make a lot more sense, because it's designed precisely to help you correct these factors and rebuild your health on a solid footing.
With that clear, the STEP BY STEP you'll find below will make a lot more sense - but before you follow it, it's essential that you have the right map at hand.
That's why I'm making the book available for free Master Your Health, which brings together in a simple and straightforward way the practical principles and essential guidelines that my best patients have applied to transform their health. It acts as an initial, objective and applicable guide to help you understand where to start, what to adjust first and how to evolve consistently.
With it, you'll have the foundation you need to make the most of what follows - which isn't just “more content”, but a way of going deeper into the same fundamentals as the book, exploring each topic in more detail, with examples and practical ways. Many of the links and recommendations presented below also appear within the book, organized to make them easier to implement on a daily basis.
After reading this map, it's also worth watching my most recent video on why so many people put off check-ups and prevention. This content delves into one of the first adjustments you'll need to make when applying the habits in the book: overcoming the tendency to put off basic care and understanding, in a clear and objective way, how the lack of prevention and regular follow-up silently compromises your health over the years.
In the video, I explain the main mechanisms of self-sabotage, the fears and beliefs that make most people neglect the obvious - even though they know what they should do - and I show why this initial change is essential for the rest of the step-by-step process to really work.
And after watching this video on prevention, I recommend you also watch the lesson “Success with HEALTH is Sustainable Success”.
It deepens an essential idea for everything you will start to build from now on: there is no lasting success - in any area of life - without sufficient health to sustain it.
In this lesson, I show you in a practical way how health directly influences your productivity, your ability to achieve, your mental clarity, your well-being and even the way you enjoy your achievements. It's content to broaden your perspective and prepare you to apply everything in this post and in the book with much more awareness.
Now you can count on a wide and diverse selection of articles, full of enriching videos and texts, which will help you deepen your knowledge of the various ways to improve your health.

It is essential to establish healthy habits and follow them on a daily basis in order to have a healthier life.

17 - CHECK - UP
In order to get a comprehensive view of our health and identify areas that need improvement, it is necessary to carry out examinations and check-ups. This is not just limited to our physical body, but also covers our mental and spiritual health.
Before we go any further, I recommend you watch my resubmission of the lecture, given at the beginning of February 2019 at the Ministry of Justice for some of its civil servants. It was a great success, highly praised and well commented on at the end of the event and ever since. I hope it is having a positive impact and changing many people's lives for the better.
Now that we are making progress in improving our health, we may need to adjust hormones and neurotransmitters (modulation: raising the levels of those that are low and helping to reduce those that are too high). These processes don't necessarily require the direct use of hormones, but rather provide conditions for the body to balance itself.
19 - HORMONES
Did you know that adjusting your hormones could be the key to achieving full and balanced health?
20 - NEUROTRANSMITTERS
In addition to hormones, neurotransmitters are also essential for the optimal functioning of the brain and mind.
In the case of specific problems, symptoms or illnesses that persist even after the appropriate adjustments have been made in the previous stages, it is possible to consider using remedies, whether natural or not. It is important to note that if they are used before the appropriate time, they can interfere with the body's balance and the process of treatment, improvement and healing.
16 - Health, Symptoms and Diseases - How to improve and prevent better
We're going to cover the essentials for achieving, maintaining and improving your health, without relying on the excessive use of medicines, which are often used prematurely and abusively these days.
