The adage “you are what you eat” is correct. Every time you visit the doctor, they ask about your family history. Your genes are more apt to express their limitations when disposed to more inflammation in your body.

Ads on the TV, radio and in magazines try to inspire more healthy habits: lose weight, aerobic and anaerobic exercise 3-4x’s per week, increase your fruit and vegetables, eat more grass fed protein, only complex carbs, increase omega 3 by eating fresh fish, drink water, moderate alcohol consumption, get your rest, reduce stress, take a multi-vitamin and mineral, etc. All of these reduce inflammation and make you BETTER. In our Westernized civilization, it is essential to supplement our nutritional habits with vitamins, minerals, herbs, and other supplements to promote a healthier you.
