The speaker lists tips for being healthier, including getting enough vitamin D, sunlight, and sleep, staying well hydrated, and being careful not to injure oneself during exercise.
The speaker recommends taking a combination of ZMA and 5-H2P before going to sleep to improve sleep. To ensure a good sleep posture, the spine should be in an organized, braced position while standing.
The speaker discusses the benefits of children wearing flat shoes, citing examples of sailboating and a middle school book, and emphasizes the importance of exercise for children.
