April 1st is TOMORROW! Let's set a goal to drink more water each day.
Water is critical for proper cellular function, eliminating toxins, and helping us think more clearly.
Aim for 1/2 your bodyweight in ounces every day!
Let's do this!!

Many people are dealing with food sensitivities today. The majority don't know that that's what is going on! They just feel lousy or have stiff joints, brain fog and fatigue or others. As you'll see below, it isn't as simple as avoiding corn on the cob or corn tortillas, either! There are so many derivatives that start from corn that people unknowingly apply to their skin or ingest because they just don't know. Check out the list below!

Traveling with Health in mind!
1. Plan ahead
-I brought snacks and some food that I could rely on if we got in a pinch
2. Relax
-It can't (and won't) all go according to plans, so try to allow yourself some grace and enjoy!

My son and I have been on a week-long trip. He had 2 activities to attend and, being under age, needed a chaperone and someone to check into the hotel rooms! 😄
We spent 2.5 days in Louisville, KY and then boarded a flight for Orlando, FL. We spent 4 days there. My sister joined me for a couple days and we went a to a few fun places: Clearwater Beach, Madame Trussauds Wax Museum and Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum. (I didn't realize how tall some notable people are/were! 😄)
Traveling doesn't stress me out because I plan ahead! I don't expect to find quality snacks on the road so I pack some.
Restaurants generally have healthy options available now. You just have to ask!

Where have you traveled this summer?

What we eat has an effect on our bodies, for good or for bad. One of the primary ways our bodies are negatively effected by food is via our gut bugs. The bacteria that inhabit our GI tract are sensitive to chemicals, too. When you consume fake sweeteners it will alter your microbiome and that will affect your health negatively. Science has proven it. Check out this article for more information. https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opinion/artificial-sweeteners-alter-gut-bacteria-in-humans-70395?fbclid=IwAR1HlNfT35tPhIdkpp_LNdNQpn7KJ8IeWn09bt-qoFroyWvv0jfNkDwt11E

When consumed for as little as two weeks, common alternatives to sugar affect intestinal bacterial communities, with some reducing the body's ability to regulate blood glucose levels, a study finds.
