For decades, we have been told to stop eating wheat and dairy. That list has grown to include unprocessed rice, beans, grains, lectins, oxalates, phytic acids, nightshades and many more food groups that have been consumed by our ancestors for hundreds of thousands of years. Today 74% of the American population complain of digestive issues and 70% are either overweight or obese. Heart disease, cancers, mental health and cognitive issues are all on the rise, even with our young people, and it all starts in the digestive system.
Of course we should stop eating foods that make us feel bad but how do we fix the cause which is a broken down digestive system? You will learn how to repair your digestion by “eating it all” as long as it is unprocessed, preferably organic and more seasonal. Our microbiome was designed to change seasonally just like the microbes on the food and soil change with each season. Studies now link seasonal microbes on your food to optimal health, immunity and longevity–and you won’t believe how simple it is to inoculate your gut with the right microbes for each season with a few seasonal foods.
In this program, John will also teach you how to get your diaphragm working again as many studies link specific diaphragmatic exercises to reversing some of the most common digestion, cardiovascular, sleep, joint and cognitive concerns.
