One of the largest body sites that microorganisms like to populate is the gut. The gut contains 95% percent of our microbiota. Our microbiota plays an important role in digestion and the syntheses of vitamins; the development and maintenance of the immune system; communication with the brain and other tissues, and many more amazing processes.
Microorganisms outnumber our own cells by ten-to-one; Humans are made up of approximately ten trillion cells while our hidden microbial world that inhabits us has one hundred trillion cells.
The microbiome is the collection of all the genomes and genes housed in the microbiota. In us, the human genome contributes to approximately 23,000 genes that make us, well us! Many changes in the gut microbiota have been linked to a whole array of disorders and disease states including depression, food intolerance, obesity, cancer, inflammatory bowel disease and chronic disease.

This short clip is from a video years ago where Cyndi was talking about skin care, and an interesting perspective many of us may not have thought about. What products do you wash into the waterways going swimming, showering, cleaning your house and washing your dishes?

Getting older doesn`t mean getting weaker, sicker, more tired or less independent: how you treat your body NOW will impact how you feel as you age. Don`t wait for the symptoms of old age to catch you before taking care of your health, start today!
As Cyndi has said in a reel before, it is wrong to think of yourself as separate from the world and separate from each component of yourself. The phytochemicals found in plants helps protect the human body from disease, inflammation and illness. How amazing is the system we`re a part of?
Slow and steady wins the race when it comes to your health!
Even when the dietary guidelines tell you something, corporations will still act in pursuit of profit and nothing else. If you are feeding your baby formula, make sure you`re taking the time to read the ingredients and find an option that works for you.

We are made up of more than just our genes: how you eat can impact how your genes are expressed, what diseases, disorders and illnesses you may overcome and what lifestyle adjustments you will have to make to enjoy a long and healthy life.
