Health Travel Junkie focuses on the niche of Health and Wellness-centric travel. This includes e.g. vegan, vegetarian, flexitarian, keto and paleo related travel tips. Plus, fitness-related content such as finding a gym in your travel destination.
Our ideal readers are those who aspire to improve their health and wellness while traveling (and why not also at home). Although pro-athletes and Nutrition PhD’s are welcome, this is not our main target market. We target our posts at the layman who seeks quality info relating to health and wellness-centric travel.
However, we are not medical doctors and HTJ does not provide medical diagnosis or -advice.
HealthTravelJunkie is active since 2017.
I’m Daniel, owner and creator of Health Travel Junkie. Although I’ve been vegan for a long period of time (2 years), I don’t follow any specific type of diet (apart from eating clean and healthy). My diet includes free-range meat, as well as plenty of vegetables, nuts, grains and fruits. I don’t see the need to rigidly only follow one specific type of diet, as you might miss out on benefits of other diets. However, eating close to nature is important. Thus if I had to choose 1 diet, I’d consider Paleo.
I stay fit and work-out regularly, using different modalities such as Crossfit, Gyms, Road Running, hiking and whatever other activities I find while traveling.
One of the reasons for starting Health Travel Junkie is to promote a healthy lifestyle while researching health and wellness in different parts of the world.
If you enjoy seeing new places, experiencing healthy local foods, and keeping fit while traveling, you’ll feel right at home here. Other topics include alternative medicine, nutrition, supplements, wellness and a few legal highs.
My education includes degrees in Business and I.T.
I’ve also completed, and passed with distinction, a university module on Nutrition. This gave me a good basic understanding of Nutrition as a science, while also showing the flaws in that industry.
Of course, I’m not a registered nutritionist, and I don’t want to be one. As I would get censored by the corrupt medical authorities if I had an “official” medical qualification.
“Medicine” vs Natural Health
This is some of the problems with the field of modern medicine:
- They push artificial sweeteners as if it does no harm – despite academic research suggesting otherwise.
- They encourage water-fluoridation, although its banned in many countries and potentially very harmful. Alternative health viewpoints get censored by unethical health authorities. And rational debate is discouraged.
- Medical doctors lack sufficient understanding of the benefits of herbs and alternative medicine.
- Nutrition as academic science lacks the passion many health bloggers have. For example, wellness bloggers (e.g. FoodBabe and NaturalNews – whom the corrupt establishment doesn’t like) will point out all the hidden preservatives and chemicals on a food label. While ranting on and on about the importance of a healthy, natural and organic diet (which is good, since it can’t be overemphasized).
- Mainstream Nutritionists follow the narratives prescribed to them by these tyrannical large organizations (e.g. the communist China-funded W.H.O.) and profit-greedy big pharma corporations. If these practitioners don’t toe the line, they can have their medical licenses revoked. Thus, flushing 5 years of studies and an entire career down the drain, simply for speaking the truth.
- Nutrition as an academic science is very biased to protect the corrupt pharmaceutical industry. This is at the expense of alternative medicine and alternative views about health. Advice like “Eat clean and healthy, avoid chemicals, avoid fluoridated drinking water” can’t be bottled and sold as a pill. But if you get sick first, then they can sell you a pill as a solution.
- The unscientific farcical “corona lockdowns” and fascist “mask mandates” since 2020, further prove that the medical industry is extremely corrupt, and not to be trusted.
- The unethical medical establishment promotes the debunked field of medicine called “Germ Theory”. This puts your power to be healthy, outside of yourself. On the other hand, I promote the empowering field of medicine, called: “Terrain Theory”. This refers to taking self-responsibility for your health, and realizing that your health is mostly within your own control, if you are willing to have a healthy lifestyle through regular exercise, and a clean diet, etc. The problem is, big pharma can’t profit from Terrain theory. They can only profit if you are sick.
