Publisher's Summary

Learn the truth about the healthcare industry, how little your genes influence your health, the real impact of lifestyle and daily toxin exposure, and how to shift the paradigm.

Trust in the medical profession is at an all-time low. The healthcare industry is worth trillions of dollars and growing exponentially, but people in general are getting sicker. Many of us are suffering from chronic illnesses, unwanted weight gain, cardiovascular complications, and mental health problems. So are our children. There is a better way.

Emma Tekstra uses her unique perspective as an actuary and thirty-year veteran of the employee health and benefits industry to outline how anyone can take control of their health by understanding the three major categories of ill health (infectious disease, chronic conditions, and mental health) and how they are all intimately connected.

Inside How to Be a Healthy Human, you’ll receive practical guidance and discover:

  • A simple approach to nutrition.
  • The symbiotic interaction of humans with nature and with microbes.
  • A new way of thinking about disease and diagnoses.
  • A fresh outlook on mental health and neurological conditions.
  • A recipe for healthy aging.
  • Resources, further knowledge, food hacks, and much more!

How to Be a Healthy Human is full of practical advice anyone can use to obtain vibrant health and vitality.

What the critics say

“A delightfully thoughtful and well-researched faith-centered book that will benefit anyone wanting to turn their life around and get healthy! And getting healthy is the prime directive in a time when public health authorities and medical regulators have demonstrated failure after failure in their approach. Positive, easy to read, and deeply informed. Sure to become a helpful, healthful favorite go-to resource for many!”—Rick Kirschner, ND, VNMI, bestselling author, speaker, and filmmaker

“A highly readable book full of important health information. Emma Tekstra educates the reader with a wealth of longevity research, cutting-edge science, and spiritual insights.”—Jennifer Margulis, PhD award-winning science journalist, author of Your Baby, Your Way, and co-author of the bestseller The Vaccine-Friendly Plan

“In How to Be a Healthy Human, Emma Tekstra exposes exactly what’s wrong with modern medicine, from doctors being taught next to nothing about nutrition to their seemingly sweeping trust in and reliance on Big Pharma. Touching on nearly every aspect of our existence that impacts our health, from technology to spirituality and everything in between, Tekstra deftly weaves information and insight into a hopeful, helpful, actionable, and wonderfully readable guide. Equal parts comprehensive and compelling, this book deserves a spot on any wellness bookshelf and should be required reading for all traditionally trained medical professionals.”—Dr. Pierre Kory, author of The War on Ivermectin, cofounder of the Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance, cofounder of the Leading Edge Tele-Health Clinic
