While working with a client last night and putting together a plan for him, I was inspired to take on the task of addressing some of the most common health problems I come across. Having worked with food over these years, I have heard, read, and studied how certain plants have been known to help with different types of ailments. It really makes since, if you think about it. According to PBS: “Today, about 40 percent of our prescription medicines come from plant extracts or synthesized plant compounds.”
Something as simple as a natural, higher fiber diet helps with digestion, weight control, heart health [1], among other things. There are also certain plants that are believed to help with chronic inflammation. A very common ailment in the USA.
I find it very empowering to think that we can control what we eat and in turn can provide the right nutrients for our body to function properly and heal properly. Keep an eye out for some truly powerful blogs coming soon that represent the “meat and potatoes” of eating for health.
