Creating a Healthy Gut

I’m tired of the phrase, you are what you eat. As you probably know, it’s more complicated in that. In Ayurveda thought, we say that you are what you digest.

And digestion goes beyond the food you put in your mouth. In fact, everything that enters the body needs to be digested—whether that’s your lifestyle, routine, career, relationships, or environment.

I break down digestion according to Ayurveda in my latest article with mindbodygreen. I cover:

• why your digestive fire is key to your health

• how to make your gut stronger & smarter

• how modern science aligns with Ayurvedic wisdom
