So here's the elephant in the room... there has been a significant rise over the past several years in all-cause mortality... meaning more people are complaining of symptoms from headaches to muscle pain and even more severe issues such as heart conditions, high blood pressure, autoimmune disease, and turbo cancers.

Heal Your Gut
DISCOVER THE SECRETS TO FINALLY HEALING YOUR GUT!
There is no "one-size-fits-all" solution or magic pill you can take to achieve optimal digestive health. Any holistic approach to gut health has to take into consideration diet, nutrition and lifestyle factors such as stress, exercise and sleep. Let's not forget that when we eat we are not only feeding the 'person' but also the 'trillions of microorganisms' in the gut that take signals from the environment and turn them into biology. Everything we do, from what we eat to how we feel, has the power to shape our health destiny.
It is a known fact that a healthy gut leads to a healthy body. A gut free of irritating foods, toxins and infection along with a flourishing gut ecosystem, is our best defense against chronic disease, from the common cold to debilitating autoimmune conditions. All my wellness programs addresses the gut first and what I consider the most likely factors that contribute to poor health and other chronic conditions including autoimmune disease: a diet consisting of gluten, food allergens, processed foods and abundant sugar, toxins from the environment and lifestyle factors including stress and sleep.
As more and more research is telling us, if you want to address any chronic illness or prevent disease from taking hold in the body, you must start with a sound healthy gut and intestinal ecosystem.

The New Biology
The relatively recent discovery of the microbiome is not only completely redefining what it means to be human, to have a body and to live on this Earth, but it is overturning belief systems and institutions that have been entrenched for centuries. Life (and healthy outcomes) is not just about your genes—it’s about connectedness and relationships ...
The Immune-Microbiome Connection
Cooperation Is Resilience The microbiome and the immune system are one in the SAME. The immune system as we know it couldn’t exist without the microbiome. Take infants for example they basically inherit the immune system of their mother, which gives them protection for maybe a few months.1 During birth, bacteria from the mother’s vagina is ...
You Are A Rainforest— Biodiversity & The Microbiome
Rainforests have been hailed as the undisputed champions of biodiversity among the world's natural ecosystems, containing far higher numbers of species on a per-area basis than any other place on the planet. Though rainforests cover less than 2 percent of Earth's total surface area, they are home to 50 percent of Earth's plants and animals. But ...
Our Microbiome—One Big Primordial Soup
We ALL, every THING, come from the same source and same terrain. We ARE intrinsically interconnected to every kingdom in the taxonomic rank: animals, plants, protista, fungi, eubacteria (single-celled bacteria) and archaebacteria (the most recent addition to the kingdoms of organisms). That means we are linked to microorganisms like bacteria, ...
The Clinical Chameleon (Gluten-Related Afflictions)
If you suffer with chronic food allergies and sensitivities, gut issues, autoimmune symptoms, or even things like mood swings, depression or neurological issues, then consuming wheat/gluten better be on your radar as a possible suspect contributing to your symptoms and poor health. While I don’t think that wheat/gluten necessarily needs to be ...
Glyphosate Rescue Remedy
For the past few decades many of our precious food systems have been tainted by any number of herbicides and pesticides. The one that comes to mind more often here in the U.S. especially given all the recent press and lawsuits, is Monsanto’s (now owned by Bayer) glyphosate-based herbicide Roundup, which we are now discovering can cause a host of ...
Are YOU Intolerant to Gluten or Glyphosate?
Move over gluten... there’s a new dietary villain in town and its name is glyphosate. It seems as of lately there has been lots of talk about glyphosate, the key ingredient in the herbicide Roundup, being maybe one of the most important causal factors related to digestive problems reminiscent of celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. But are you ...
How Emotional Stress Causes Leaky Gut
If you’ve ever wondered whether your emotions can effect your digestion (and your peace of mind), just recollect the last time you felt “butterflies in your stomach” before a big event or felt sick to your stomach after spending an afternoon with one of your “Xs”. It’s fairly obvious that there is definitely a brain-gut connection going on. But ...
Nature’s Most Wanted: Anti-Nutrients
What’s the hype (or not) about eating seamlessly harmless foods like grains, legumes, nuts and seeds? More specifically, what's so wrong with the energy-yielding nutrients or proteins found in them in particular... gluten, lectins, wheat-germ agglutinin, phytates, tannins, etc.? The bottom line is… can you continue to eat some of your favorite ...
