Description

Your body's natural defence systems are designed to fight threats like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. However, rates of these health problems are rising, and the latest scientific research suggests that the key to protection lies in the foods we eat. Dr William Li explains that each of your body's five defence systems - angiogenesis, cell regeneration, the microbiome, DNA protection, and immunity - is intimately connected to the foods you consume. Discover how certain foods can boost your body's natural defence systems and help you live longer. Dr Li reveals the surprising role of foods like hot cocoa, cheese, and coffee in maintaining healthy gut bacteria and reducing the risk of certain diseases. He also proposes a simple 5 x 5 x 5 framework, inviting you to choose five foods and eat them five times a day to fortify your defence systems. This approach is not about dieting or cutting out, but about incorporating healthy foods into a plan for life-long change.
