    I Ate Wheat in Europe But I’m Gluten Free in America - Why?

    While on vacation in Italy - I ate pizza, pasta, and bread - yes, the regular gluten kind. I didn’t have digestive issues, no aches and pains, mood swing or brain fog, and when I got home, I hadn’t gained an ounce! But I got back onto my gluten free lifestyle when I got back to the U.S. Why? ON this episode I discuss how the food in Europe is different than here in the US, how wheat has been hybridized, signs of food intolerances, why it is critical to test for celiac disease, and which bread I recommend eating and why it needs to be organic in the U.S.

    Curb Kid's Constipation - Naturally without MiraLAX!

    Curb Kid's Constipation - Naturally without MiraLAX!

    Chronic constipation is the #1 cause of kid’s belly pain. Most constipated kids are given MiraLAX - you just stir it into water or juice and problem solved, right? Well, some parents are concerned about possible side effects, and according to its label it is is only supposed to be used for adults for 7 days, max.
    Get natural ways of resolving constipation, including what I recommend before adding in fiber, my favorite types of fiber, tips on the microbiome, and also a surprising deficiency that could lead to gastroparesis and constipation.  This is primarily focused on kids, but the tips apply to all ages.

    Is Intermittent Fasting Good, or Deadly?

    If you read the latest headlines, Intermittent fasting is bad, really bad - in fact, it could kill you. A new preprint study found that it is linked to a 91% higher risk of cardiovascular death. But there is also a large body of research that shows that intermittent fasting is good for you - it has been shown to boost the immune system, improve blood sugar, cholesterol, metabolism, weight and benefit longevity. So is Intermittent fasting good for us, or could it kill us? Dr. Kurt Perkins joins Sara on the podcast to discuss.
