More than 70 percent of complaints are associated with cardiovascular and blood sugar health.” - Jenn Trepeck“It doesn't require biohacking to achieve the level of health and vitality and lifestyle that most people, I think, are looking for." - Jenn Trepeck"I think that's a big mistake that people make...the body's physiological response to stress exists even when we don't mentally think we're stressed.” - Jenn Trepeck“There's a correlation between grip strength and cognitive health.” - Jenn Trepeck“With age, the prostate can change in size, shape and flexibility or suppleness and it's these changes that create the symptoms." - Jenn Trepeck“Your waist circumference is a strong predictor of low testosterone. So as your waist circumference increases, it can be an indicator of low testosterone, and that can happen, by the way, in men as young as 30.” - Jenn Trepeck “You cannot supplement your way out of poor nutrition.” - Jenn Trepeck “Awareness is Key. Consistency is King.” - Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn’s Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramMen's Health Shop (Jenn’s favorite supplements for men’s health)
