Last week, I was challenged to think about what “health” means to me. That’s a funny thing to think about for me, because my definition has evolved drastically over the last few years. In the past, I would have most likely considered “health” to be the absence of sickness. In fact, I would have considered...
The Father of Medicine, Hippocrates, is famous for saying, “All disease begins in the gut.” Through my studies and research, I am convinced now, more than ever, that this statement is incredibly valid. “Gut health” has become quite a hot topic, especially among those interested in holistic health. Intriguingly, unhealthy guts are being attributed to...
