Unhealthy gut microbiome linked to several diseases
Inflammation can be a natural and healthy response in your body, but when inflammation becomes chronic we can be in real trouble. Today we know that inflammation is linked to several diseases such as diabetes 2, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, arthritis, skin & mental health issues to name a few. Consequently, managing inflammation is key to prevent and treat various diseases.
The good news is that doctors are learning that you can look to your fridge and not just the medicine cabinet for the solution. Think Mediterranean style diet, more vegetables and fruits, whole grains and fiber, herbs and spices, and fatty fish such as salmon.

“The gut produces much of the body’s serotonin, which affects mood and sleep. Functions of the gut, and its activity, interact with our sleep/eating rhythms and emotions.”
