Welcome to Episode 1 of the Be Organic Podcast
Did you know symptoms like IBS, bloating, constipation, difficulty losing weight, hormonal imbalances, depression, anxiety, chronic fatigue, frail hair and nails, skin issues, and brain fog are all linked to inflammation? Most often when someone chronically experiences these symptoms, they work to treat the symptom itself, rather than treating the root cause of the symptom–which most often is inflammation.
In this episode of Be Organic, Dr. Will Cole chats with us on what’s causing our inflammation and also provides us with a step-by-step process on how to heal, including what foods to avoid, supplements to use, lifestyle practices to adopt, and ways of eating to explore.
