What Are We Not Paying Attention To That We Need To?

This week’s episode is a powerful blend of scripture, science, and soul-searching. As we prepare to study the Word of Wisdom in church, I want to revisit the question that first sparked Doctrine & Covenants 89: 👉 “What am I not paying attention to that I need to?” In this episode, I share insights from the International Conference on Nutrition and Medicine, where leading doctors—including Dr. Kim Williams, Dr. Gemma Newman, Dr. Kristi Funk, and Dr. Dean Ornish—revealed groundbreaking research on how diet and lifestyle can reverse disease, prevent cancer, and even improve Alzheimer’s. What struck me most? Their findings echo counsel given in the Word of Wisdom nearly 200 years ago. Why eating meat sparingly isn’t just good advice—it’s prophetic. How factory farming fits the definition of “excess” and “extortion” warned against in scripture. Why supplements can’t save us, but food can. The surprising link between fiber, digestion, and reduced breast cancer risk. A lifestyle approach that’s been proven to reverse heart disease, prostate cancer, and now Alzheimer’s. If you’ve ever wondered whether the Word of Wisdom was ahead of its time—or if there are parts of it we’ve been ignoring—this episode will challenge and inspire you to take a fresh look at both scripture and your plate. ✨ Check out PlantWhys!
