Surprising Nutrients & Foods for the Gut, Power & Control #1060

August 13, 2019

Today we have Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, the Paleo Mom, on the show with us talking about surprising nutrients & foods for the gut! She is SUCH a wealth of information. The last time we spoke with Dr. Sarah was when we met her in April at PaleoFX in Austin, we had so much fun (picture below.)

Today Dr. Sarah talks about surprising nutrients and foods that can benefit the health of your gut microbiome. Oh, what a trendy word: microbiome. But let's get real, a healthy gut is so important for your overall health. Most people walk around deficient in vitamin D, and this is a crucial vitamin for everyday functions of the body. Dr. Sarah tells us how to know if you're deficient and how to correctly supplement or get it from food. Then we talk about all the other aspects of our diet that can impact our gut either positively or negatively.

DeWone Bennett continues his topic from last time on power and control in relationships. We talk about where this kind of behavior originates in a person, because that can be a factor on whether or not its "fixable." When someone seeks power and control in a relationship, it can start small in ways like removing you from certain friends or family members. Then it can turn into more serious actions that will take your own power away. It's a very slippery slope when you are engaged in a relationship with someone who is controlling, so listen to the advice from licensed professional counselor, DeWone Bennett.
