What happens when microscopic yeast start running the show? If you don’t get some candy in you NOW, someone might get hurt. So you go for the strong stuff (caramel, ice cream, cupcakes), blaming yourself for caving. Again. But it’s not your faulty willpower keeping you in these saccharine shackles. It’s Candida…and it’s at the root of…
Check out the list I’ve compiled to find a combination of NPR articles (check out what the Buddhist nuns in Korea have to say about fermented foods!), a Radiolab podcast on gut health, and the Microbiome Medicine Summit which includes dozens of leading health experts sharing about all aspects of healing with fermented foods.
Fact: When you are less stressed out, you digest better. We may be used to tuning out stress, but living in constant fight-or-flight survival mode is a killer for the gut microbiome.

This week I went on a camping trip in the woods with some amazing people. There were 5 adults and 8 teenage boys. We jumped off rocks into ice-cold water, walked through the lush rainforest under trees dripped with lichen, and laughed when we discovered that the raccoons had eaten our chicken. The best part…
