Learning and Living Well | Lauren Bryson

Connect with the powerful healing properties of food! Today KJ chats with Nutrition Consultant, Lauren Bryson.  Lauren  discovered the world of holistic healing after experiencing her own personal health crisis  in which she bounced in and out of hospitals for years and received countless unneeded prescriptions and misdiagnoses. Reclaiming her power, Lauren found remedies for her body imbalances using nutrition and holistic lifestyle practices.

Today's chat highlights Lauren's goal of educating and empowering clients in learning the healing properties of food (including the coolest gig- teaching Elementary school kids how to Cook For Life ) and the fascinating gut-brain connection.  Plus, listeners are introduced to the ultra sexy topic of microorganism communities  = The  Microbiome.
