Main Points From Today’s Episode
For every one person with a wheat sensitivity who has gut problems, there are eight people who have problems somewhere else in the body. The most common system of the body that's affected is your brain.
2. Brain fog can happen because of 13 different mechanisms. The most common one is a lack of blood flow to the brain, and Dr. O’Bryan’s book gives you strategies to improve your brain’s clarity.
Be kind to yourself: allocate one hour a week to work on reducing your toxic load. As you reduce toxicity, your resistance gets stronger.
