The common mistakes in our daily lifestyles, according to Luke, that lead to problems related to fat gain, fatty liver, high triglycerides and diabetes are as follows:

1. Late-night dinners
2. Insufficient gap between dinner and bedtime
3. Late-night snacking
4. Sugar or sugary white carb breakfast, empty stomach
5. Cardio, no or less resistance training
6. Low vitamin D3 levels
7. Sleep deprived
8. Alcohol - Luke mentions, “Thinking drinking a lot of alcohol solves life's problems, makes one happy and is a mental health drug.”
9. Less protein and more carbs on the plate
10. Too little carbs and too little protein
11. Low-fat diet
12. Ultra-processed diet- According to the lifestyle coach, these foods contain ‘junk junk junk calories'
13. Chronic stress - He says, “Always wanting to be in control of everything ... trying to be perfect all the time, thinking one is in control,” gives chronic stress to the body
14. Lack of connection with nature
15. Wrong friends circle

He adds that when insulin levels are always high, it disables fat burn “because one is always eating and snacking, never giving the gut a rest to reset.”

At the end of his post, Luke then also states, “One bad weekend negates all the efforts of Monday to Friday,” revealing that proper diet, exercise, and sleep are among some of the key things that should be a regular part of daily activities.

Understanding the consequences of these problems, Luke discusses that if these major lifestyle mistakes can be eradicated, it will help cure multiple chronic diseases.
