We live in a diet-obsessed world: vegan, paleo, keto, high-carb, low-carb, vegetarian. There’s a constant debate about which one is the best.
There isn’t a superior “one-size-fits-all” diet. There is, however, one universal principle: no matter what we choose to eat, it must end up in our cells to nourish our bodies and provide us with health benefits.
FACT: when it comes to improving your health, very few factors are more important than GUT HEALTH. Sadly, most of the population has very poor digestion which leads to gut issues and inflammation. The standard American diet does a fantastic job irritating and inflaming the gut.
What’s even worse is the solution (popping a couple antacids or prescription medicines) masks the problem, eventually making it worse. Even more devastating, most people are totally unaware just HOW much less-than-stellar digestion impacts their sleep, mood, mental and emotional states, energy, hormones, skin, and overall health.
Adrenal fatigue, also known as the “21st Century Stress Syndrome” occurs when the adrenal glands become overtaxed by excess cortisol release and can no longer produce the levels of cortisol (and other hormones) necessary to maintain optimal health.
Chronic dysregulated blood sugar is one of the biggest stressors on the physical body. Eating foods that cause large spikes in blood sugar will eventually break the metabolism or result in metabolic dysfunction.
