The saying “you are what you eat” holds true. Every time you visit a doctor, they inquire about your family history, as your genes are more likely to express their limitations when exposed to higher levels of inflammation in your body.

We see countless ads on TV, radio, and in magazines encouraging healthier habits: lose weight, exercise aerobically and anaerobically 3-4 times per week, eat more fruits and vegetables, choose grass-fed protein, opt for complex carbs, boost omega-3s with fresh fish, drink water, moderate alcohol consumption, get enough rest, reduce stress, and take a multivitamin. All of these actions help reduce inflammation and improve your health. In our Westernized society, it’s crucial to supplement our diets with vitamins, minerals, herbs, and other nutrients to support a healthier, more vibrant you.
