4w ago01:01:11Tap to summarizeIan Clark is the CEO of Activation Products, a business built to inspire people to strive for perfect health. At 46, Ian's health started to unravel completely — he had a large tumor near his colon and prostate, significant heart disease, and his liver went off the rails. He was also coming out of a business bankruptcy at the time. He was told he had roughly 1,000 days left to live. He asked his doctor to hold off on surgery for three months and gave himself that time to find a natural path. He started researching everything he could on nutrition and superfoods, completely changed his diet, and began rebuilding from the ground up. He is also the host of the show Younger Than Yesterday Podcast, available everywhere podcasts are found.
