It Seems Nutritious, but Is It Really?
Did you know that not all the nutrients you eat can be absorbed? Even if they are absorbed, they still might not be used by your body.
Bioavailability refers to the proportion of nutrients that are absorbed and utilized in the body.

Finding Foods That Love You
Do you love a wine and cheese event? A beautiful and tasty charcuterie board filled with cheeses, olives, cured grass-fed meats and dried fruit, complimented with a well paired organic wine is perfect for social gatherings.

If you can figure out which food compounds are contributing to your symptoms, you can make better food choices, and eat foods that make you feel better.
