A record number of people looking for relief from stress, anxiety, pain, or other complaints are turning to one botanical extract with a newfound sense of hope. In fact, hemp extract is sometimes referred to as a “cure-all” because it can help to address a wide range of symptoms. However, this extract is sometimes misunderstood.  

When you consider your digestive system, it’s unlikely that the first thing you think about is your stomach acid. However, this acid is one of the most critical steps in the digestive system, allowing your body to break down the foods you eat in order to extract the beneficial vitamins, minerals, and nutrients in food. In this episode of Healthline Live Radio Show, Dr. Robert Marshall, Ph.D. and co-founder of Quantum Nutrition Labs, discusses the importance of hydrochloric acid.

In the last few months, we’ve been faced with enormous challenges that have caused a strain in our home and work life.  The coronavirus has led to high-stress levels and poor mental health.  With shelter-in-place restrictions and those with a history of anxiety problems, stress has only exacerbated. The effects of anxiety lead to increased food cravings, poor sleep, and digestive problems.  In addition, one can experience mood swings and a lackluster immune system. Here's why your gut health matters even more right now. 

You know the feeling - you’ve just finished eating a large meal and you feel stuffed, sluggish, and heavy. Looking back, you probably should not have eaten those last few bites or taken that second helping. Sometimes, it can be easy to overeat, but did you know that it can lead to digestive problems, type 2 diabetes, and obesity?

Your magnificent gut microbiome (that houses all the combined bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses that live within your intestinal tract) has a direct impact on many health aspects, including athletic performance, weight, and digestion. In addition, did you know that these abundant, beneficial bacteria may actually play a role in determining how long you live? 

The quality of your diet is a key factor to your overall health and wellness. When you choose to fill your diet with fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, you “power up” your body with pristine nutrients that include high-quality vitamins, minerals, and fiber. However, did you know that some foods that are thought of as “healthy” can be damaging to your microbiome?

The outbreak of COVID-19 has prompted many people to take precautions to keep themselves safe. Last week, Dr. Justin Clark, PhD,  answered a variety of key questions related to the virus.

The world is fast-paced and constantly changing. Careers, family, school, and relationships might pull you in several directions, making it difficult to maintain a healthy diet, regular exercise schedule, and adequate sleep. However, all these things are important in order to achieve your own best health.
