In this video, we look at how the body breaks down under stress and nutrient depletion and how real healing begins. Most people wait until symptoms show up, but by then, around 85% of the affected cells are already damaged. That’s stage five on the health continuum- just one step before crisis or death.

Dr. Farley explains this using the analogy of a 55-gallon drum: your body draws daily from a reservoir of vitamins and minerals, ideally refilled by food. But most people are born depleted and stay depleted due to chronic stress, poor diet, and inherited imbalances. Your cells are forced to ration nutrients and shut down non-essential processes to survive.

We also unpack how government-recommended daily intakes (like 60mg of vitamin C to avoid scurvy) are set just to barely prevent deficiency diseases NOT to promote true health. These numbers were based on food surveys from the 1950s and tell us only what’s needed to barely survive, not thrive. The truth? Most people are walking around with cells under constant stress, starved for nutrients, and juggling biochemistry on the edge of collapse.

The takeaway? Symptoms are the last sign of dysfunction. True healing begins when you support the nervous system, restore nutrient reserves, and give your body what it actually needs,

not just to avoid disease, but to function optimally.
