The holidays are beginning, and so starts a prolonged assault on our microbiome. The bacteria that inhabit our gastrointestinal tracts are responsible not just for proper digestion, but also for mood, metabolism, weight, and immunity. Martie Whittekin, Board-Certified Clinical Nutritionist, author, and host of her own nationally-syndicated talk radio show, Healthy by Nature (www.HBNShow.com) describes the many functions served by our internal microbial community; how stress, junk food, sugar, alcohol, acid-blockers, chemically treated tap water, unnatural birth practices, vacations to exotic venues and toxic food additives can threaten our microbiome. What role do probiotics play? How to select the proper probiotic? What are PRE-biotics? What are bacteriocins? How, when, and in what quantity should you take probiotics? What role does aloe vera play in restoring GI health? Click Subscribe to the Intelligent Medicine Podcast for Free from your Favorite Podcast Provider

Leyla Weighs In: Exercise as a Drug-Free Longevity Pill
In my 40-year history in medicine, I’ve never endorsed a weight-loss product, because most don’t deliver—until now.
The science behind Calocurb and its active ingredient, Amarasate®, is so compelling that I can support it as a plausible alternative for curbing appetite and enhancing satiety to help you shed pounds.
Calocurb works by activating your body’s own appetite-regulating chemical messengers, including GLP-1, which signal specific areas of the brain to effectively manage hunger. It’s safe and effective, with no chemicals, synthetics, or caffeine—and it doesn’t cause jitters.
For a limited time, you can get 10% off your order by using code DH10.
