Written by: Claudia Haller NBC-HWC Spring is a season of renewal, not just for your closet or calendar. As the days stretch longer and winter gives way to warmth and blooms, your body may also start asking for a reset. That heavy comfort food phase around the holidays? It's normal. But now’s a great time to lighten the load and embrace the season’s vibrant, nutrient-rich produce, especially the kind that loves your gut as much as you do.

Cravings are something we all experience. While a desire for your favorite Thai restaurant doesn't always have a deeper meaning, your cravings are often trying to communicate something more to you. Sometimes cravings can be your body's way of telling you what you’re lacking. Deciphering these clues will give much insight into what's going on inside of you and how you can fix it.
Inflammation is something we hear a lot about, but where does it come from? Inflammation happens when a physical factor triggers an immune reaction; it is actually the body's normal response to injury or illness. However, when it persists over an extended period of time, it can cause a variety of health issues. Over time, chronic inflammation can trigger your immune system to attack healthy tissue and organs in your body which can increase your risk for diseases such as diabetes, cancer, and rheumatoid arthritis.
Are you someone that often questions why you feel the way you do? When you reflect on your day, do you ever wonder what triggered your discomfort at times? Many of us wonder about our bodily reactions, but how many of us actually act on them?
When our bodies react poorly to foods that we consume, we rarely ever take the time to figure out just what is causing our discomfort. Rather than just being curious about these reactions, it’s time for you to discover the root of the issue and work towards a solution. Fortunately, there is an extremely organized and easy-to-use tool at your disposal: a food journal. Has digestive discomfort ever caused you not to enjoy a day or a special occasion the way you planned?
How smoothly your digestion works can truly make or break your day, especially when you deal with chronic discomfort. Constant acid reflux, bloating, gas, or nausea are things you don't want to have to deal with ever -- much less daily. I have some good news: You can make a few routine shifts to leave your digestive systems feeling a lot more regulated, and it'll be worth your while to explore these and find what works best for you. |
