Good gut health is the key to good health for the entire body. For this it is important to understand how specific foods, gluten for instance, react with the digestive system.
Cholesterol has had a bad rap for many years now, but research has shown us how it is essential for the body. It is important to remember that fats are essential for working of the body and the brain, and depriving the body of this is actually detrimental.
Detoxing is an important process for maintaining good health. Natural sweating, saunas, intermittent fasting, and certain detox procedures and supplements can help in the process.
Inflammation is at the heart of mental degeneration, physical disease and ill-health in general. We now understand how to arrest and even reverse a range of diseases simply by controlling and reducing inflammation.
