What Happens If You Raise Your Health Priority?
If you raise the level of priority that you place on your health, as long as the health problems associated with having lived at the lower priority are not permanent, they should improve.
What Happens If You Live At a Higher Level of Priority?
If you continue to live at that higher level for a reasonable length of time, you get healthier. Even after the symptoms associated with the former health condition go away, you will likely prevent the prior health problem from returning.
What Happens If The Higher Level of Priority Becomes a Lifestyle?
If you made the higher level of priority your lifestyle, you could expect that your health would improve. In fact, it would cause your health to increase to that of the higher priority. In time, you would be able to maintain that higher level of health and wellness easily.

The Ultimate Question About Your Health
The ultimate question is, “on a scale of 1-10, how important is your and your family’s health?” The answer is always “10.” As a “10,” you and your family would be continuously looking for and adding constructive, healthy lifestyle changes, which minimally would include making sure your family has their nervous system checked to achieve their best possible health.
