At Function Health, which is the company that I co-founded to help people track their own personal health data, it's shocking.
70% are low.
In the Quest reference range, which is the standard reference lab we use, 70% are low in one or more nutrients at the level that's not the level I think is good or you would think is good.
Like vitamin D of 30 is not good.
It should be 50.
Or a ferret in their iron stores is 16 is not good.
It should be 45.
Between lower than 45, you'll get hair loss and fatigue and all kinds of things.
sleep issues and other things, and omega-3 fats and vitamin D. And it's amazing to see the problems in a population that actually is pretty health forward because they're actually going to do proactive things about their health.
So what about the rest of the population?
So I think providing basic nutrients is so important.
But I want to kind of loop back, David, because what you said kind of struck me was, you're not doing what you're doing now
To stay healthy at 50, you're doing what you're doing now to stay healthy at 80.
So kind of walk us through a day, the life of David Beckham in terms of your health routine and what are the foundational things?
Family, connection, love.
What is that exercise that makes you cry?
Amazing.
You're eating healthy.
You're with family.
You're laughing.
