Healthy Gut ~ Healthy Brain


MY GUT AND DIGESTIVE ISSUES THAT HAVE PLAGUED ME MOST OF MY LIFE

In my journey to improve my health, I starting doing research on the Internet, reading books to educate myself about my condition. I am extremely blessed to have two great friends and colleagues who have assisted me to see the issues and then what I needed to change to get the results I was looking for.
Both Dr. Gary Johnson and Doctor of Naturopathy, Vicki Eide have shared so much knowledge and made health altering recommendations to allow me to have a good outcome.  I will forever be grateful for all the help they have afforded me.  They are truly “Treasures”.
I was introduced to “Brain Maker”, written by David Permutter, MD and “Wheat Belly” by Dr. William Davis.  In my opinion, a must read for everyone.  These books have information for everyone.  From your infant baby to your Great Great Grand Parents, there is something for everyone.  The sooner you start to understand why having a healthy gut will affect your life outcome.  Do we want to live a full life feeling great every day?  If we do, then it us up to us to educate ourselves and with the information, put it into practice.
I love shopping at my Whole Foods Coop.  You just feel healthy walking into the store.  I have heard the comment, “but it is so expensive shopping there”.  My comment back is always the same.  “What price do you put on your health”?  No more caged chicken eggs for me, no protein full of antibiotics and no fruit and vegetables sprayed with pesticides.  Our choice is not complicated.
While I want to live til at least 90, I only want to if I have my mind and physically feel great.

 
It truly is up to all of us to educate ourselves and connect with people who have dedicated much of their lives to understanding how to make smart choices.  That is really in the end what it is all about…….SMART CHOICES.

    
Make it a great day and live your life with passion!
