Unlocking The Science of Gut Health: 5 Things You Need To Know
Gut and digestive health have become hot topics in the wellness world, and could even be considered “mainstream” at this point. We have come a long way in recent years. When I started on my health journey 8ish years ago, I knew little about the microbiome (and even less on how it affected both my mental and physical health). During this process, I’ve found it empowering and more motivating to make changes when I know the science behind what’s actually going on in my body. So today I thought I’d share some fascinating information about the role your gut plays in your overall health, so you can make more educated decisions when it comes to your lifestyle habits.

How To Navigate The Grocery Store
Nutrition has become such a controversial topic (when it really doesn’t have to be!) Should I be eating meat? Not eating meat? What about dairy? Is gluten really that bad?

What’s the Difference Between Health and Wellness anyway?
You hear the words “health” and “wellness” thrown around, often together, especially when it involves fear tactics (“this ingredient will give you cancer!”) and / or for marketing purposes (“buy our product and be free of disease!”) Obviously I’m exaggerating here but you get the picture.
