On Changing the World… :: The Soul Of A Horse Blog

A lot of people dream about changing the world, but very few ever try it. Let alone do it. I’ve tried it twice. And have been blessed by being successful at it both times. To actually change the world, even if only a little bit. The first time was the original Benji movie. Most people think it was a Disney film. It wasn’t. Disney turned it down. As did every other studio in Hollywood. Twice. Once in the script stage and again after we had raised the money privately and independently produced the film. We had no choice but to attempt to distribute the movie ourselves. We made a lot of mistakes. But we also did a lot of learning, developed a new way of doing things, and Benji ultimately became the #3 movie of the year. Which brought a lot of happiness into the world. As I said, we were blessed.

The second time we played a role in changing the world was when Kathleen and I entered the horse world totally without a clue. We soon discovered that everything we were being told about the way horses should be kept and cared for made no sense. Was without logic. And turned out to be genetically incorrect. That inspired a new passion, and a new way to care for horses, and I had the gall to start writing a book to tell that story less than a year after getting my first horse. That book, The Soul of a Horse – Life Lessons from the Herd, and the books that followed, have changed the lives of tens of thousands of horses for the better all across this planet. Against the voices of traditionalists saying no, you can’t do that! It won’t work. But it does, and we proved that it does.

Someone else with a dream to change the world was Dr. Joel Wallach. Even as a child on the farm he was discovering the value of minerals and nutrition in creating good, illness-free health in animals. As he grew up and studied more, his passion grew, and an entirely new way of looking at health began to emerge. Dr. Wallach’s relentless 45-year pursuit of scientific truth and his persistent willingness to challenge the status quo has enriched the lives and improved the health and well-being of millions of animals, then millions of people. First as a scientist and a vet, then as a physician. His research has been published 75 times in peer-reviewed medical and scientific journals internationally. He has written several books, one of which is in the Smithsonian (Diseases of Exotic Animals). He has removed more than 900 diseases from the animal world and gone back to school at 40 to become a naturopathic physician so he could prove that the same research that works for animals also works for humans. And prove it he did.

And yet, for the most part, the medical and pharmaceutical world ignored him.

I understand how he must feel. I’ve been there and done that.

So Dr. Wallach finally said, “Enough!” “We will build an army of passionate crusaders and pay them a ridiculous amount of money to share the 90 For Life message with the most advanced nutritional products available anywhere at any price.”

I identify.

He didn’t quit. He didn’t give up. He didn’t throw up his arms and walk away. And he now has his army. And a publicly traded $20,000,000 company. He found another way to bring health to the masses. He re-invented the system. And all that money that a traditional company would be pumping into advertising, supply-chain staff and infrastructure, sales and marketing teams, media, etc, he’s handing back to that army.

Think about this. There was a clinical research study of adults all around the world who had contracted cancer and were being treated with chemotherapy. The study went on for 12 years. And the results were published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology stating that 97% of the time the chemo did not work.

But studies prove that taking 200 mcgs a day of the simple mineral selenium can reduce the risk of prostate cancer by 69%, colon cancer by 64%, and breast cancer by 82%.

But the naysayers persisted. Dr. Wallach had to sue the FDA three times in federal court to finally win the endorsement of the FDA in stating that selenium can prevent certain types of cancer.

Another study: the risk of breast cancer can be reduced by 462% by just eating meat cooked medium or rare, instead of well-done or seared. Who knew any of this?

Why didn’t we know?

You probably guessed it. Money.

The medical and especially the pharmaceutical industries are not interested in good health, in nutritional prevention, because there’s no money in it.

Your body can do amazing things. It can heal itself if it has the choices that it genetically needs. We’ve worked hard to give our horses the choices their bodies need, but we’ve ignored ourselves. Until now.

Listen to this amazing talk by Dr. Wallach about his life’s work:

Then watch this video of Dr. Joel Wallach’s history and an overview of the entire Youngevity 90 For Life program. Only eight minutes long :)

I have had two bad knees forever and they are now both pain free for the first time in years. I have two shoulder rotator cuff tears, and they are now without issue or pain. I feel better, healthier than I have in years. I’m off my cholesterol medication. My arthritis is gone. I have more energy. Much more positive attitude. I sleep better. I sing more to the horses (who are hopefully tone deaf).

100 years ago we were ingesting these 90 different minerals and nutrients every day but we are not getting them today because of the way our food is grown and processed. To make them available to our bodies we have to supplement.

And because these products are so good (and so real!)… and because those who try them get so excited about their results… and because the company has such a super compensation model… if you desire, you can be paying for your own products and putting substantial money in the bank while changing your life and other people’s lives for the better in very short order. And that, too, is exciting. See this short video: ygyinfo.com

Dr. Linus Pauling, one of the two greatest scientists of the 20th century, acknowledged by his colleagues as the most influential chemist since Lavoisier, and a two-time Nobel Prize Winner, said that you can trace every sickness, every disease, every ailment to a mineral deficiency. Dr. Joel Wallach was listening and has clinically proven it, and the result is this program.

The 90 For Life program regularly takes people off Type 2 diabetes meds, off blood pressure meds, off cholesterol meds, off pain meds, and helps people lose weight. Dr. Wallach loves folks with arthritis because he says it’s so easy to fix.

The core of the program is the Healthy Body Start Pak 2.0 which contains three products that together deliver all 90 of the essential minerals, vitamins, amino acids and EFAs that your body is genetically designed to need and use. That plus the Welcome/Training Kit and a bottle of Ultimate selenium is a good place to start. I am on the Healthy Body Start Pak plus “add-ons” for Bones and Joints for arthritis, plus selenium. Kathleen is doing the Healthy Body Start Pak plus added calcium, and selenium. You can check all this out at http://joecamp.youngevity.com/ and I will sponsor you and walk you through if you choose to sign-up and get started.

Dr. Wallach’s mantra is 90-90-90. Use these 90 essential minerals and nutrients for 90 days and 90% of your problems will be gone.

I thank Dr. Wallach from the depths of my heart for changing our health and our lives. For not giving up. For standing against the naysayers with a new health paradigm based upon being healthy, disease-free, and living longer instead of waiting around for some illness to strike and then hoping there’s a doctor who can fix it. And I thank our internist, Dr. Chris Marasco, for being a most unusual MD who holistically promotes being healthy and disease-free. For focusing on prevention, not just cures and fixes.

They are most definitely changing the world. I am 76 and haven’t felt this good since… well… I can’t even remember. I encourage you to join us. To put your health and well being on offense instead of defense. You will not only be changing your world, we will all be helping Dr. Wallach change the entire world for the better. And I’ve always found that to be a good thing :).

The story of our journey with horses (to date) is told in the two books that follow: the national best seller The Soul of a Horse – Life Lessons from the Herd and its sequel Born Wild – The Soul of a Horse.

And what a story it is as two novices without a clue stumble and bumble their way through the learning process so that hopefully you won’t have to. If you haven’t read both of these books already please do because with that reading, I believe, will come not just the knowledge of discovery but the passion and the excitement to cause you to commit to your journey with horses, to do for the horse without waiver so that your relationship and experience will be with loving, happy and healthy horses who are willing partners and who never stop trying for you. Horses like ours.
