it lists "garlic", "clay", and "kefir" as the perfect trifecta to intestinal health.
I am discovering that gut health is the foundation. Gut issues are linked with every ailment from IBS to autism. It seems prudent to keep the digestion working well.
She does a great job at explaining the benefits of each of the three. I am jumping in and checking out some of her suggestions!!
I am skipping on the garlic for now :)
The article suggests Redmond Clay but I read in the comments about Terramin Clay and researched a bit. Decided to go with Terramin. This is my second day and I think I am seeing results already.
I ordered raw kefir with my local dairy order this week and it arrived yesterday. What an interesting adventure. My first impression of the taste is "alcoholic milk." I guess I shouldn't be surprised that fermented milk would remind me of beer. ;) Until I grow acustomed to the taste, mixing in some cocoa powder, stevia and spices does the trick to make it enjoyable for me.
I have been experiencing some minor health issues recently that do not jive with the "cleanness" of my eating and lifestyle. I suspect some internal imbalances. It is my hope and expectation that adding the clay and kefir will help to take me to the next phase of my healing journey.
