Killer number one in our society is cardiovascular-related. It's big time. And that is because we wear clothes. We are never being stimulated through cold, warm, and pressure. It's no longer there.

It's amazing how simple it can be, how simple we can tackle this serial killer: the cardiovascular-related diseases. We can tackle it with a cold shower a day...

We all are able to battle inflammation, to have control, top-down, in our body, much more than we thought possible—at least to be able to guarantee happiness, strength, and health, which is all related to hormones and the control of the immune system and nervous system.

We are able to adapt about to anything. We are built to be able to adapt without stress into any stressful situation.

Just be happy, strong, and healthy. And the rest is bullshit.
