How To Reduce Inflammation, Heal Your Gut And Prevent Disease

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health and HigherDOSE. Gut
health literally affects your entire body. Your gut houses 500
species and three pounds of bacteria. Too many bad gut flora
(including parasites and yeast) or not enough good ones can spell
serious trouble for your health. This is why if you want to fix
your health, start with your gut. In today’s episode of my series
I’m calling Health Bites, I talk about the gut-immune and gut-brain
connection, what imbalances our gut health, and my top strategies
for reducing inflammation and healing the gut.  This episode
is brought to you by Rupa Health and HigherDOSE. Rupa Health is a
