Woop Woop! Our new topic is gut health and skin! 👏 A subject close to my heart 🤓 How strong is the gut-skin connection and how does it work? Might skin problems originate in the gut? What's the latest science on this? What are the best natural options for skin care? 💚

The vast majority of sugar we consume isn't from table sugar or honey added at home. It's actually from sugar added to processed food.🧐🍫🍰🍬🍡 Food manufacturers add whatever quantity it takes to reach the 'bliss point' where the food becomes almost impossible to resist!🤤

How well do you know sugar? 🤔 The glycemic index (GI) is a ranking that measures how different carbs affect our blood sugar levels. Honey's there in the middle 🍯🐝🍯 It's sweet but also comes with gut-healing probiotics + enzymes, unlike others on the list 👏 Glucose is worst!
