What if the solution is in the grass...?

What if good remedies for bloating, brain fog and indigestion were just outside your door?

And you didn’t have to spend so much on supplements or superfoods from half-way across the world?

Well, there is and you don’t!
One frequent complaint I hear from new clients is that they have too many supplements.
  • They don't know what to do with them all.
  • They don’t want to toss them out because they paid good money for them.
  • They definitely don’t want to be told they need any more!

Thus, I often look to how to supplement their supplements with wild natural foods (what a novel thought!).

And with recent global events, it does seem like the perfect time to get back to nature, find some peace of mind, and build self-sufficiency.

Here are two easy wild foods to start with. They are common throughout Canada and some parts of the USA, and they are abundant right now!

WILD ROSE: 

​A simple tea made from rose petals or rose hips can improve digestion, nourish the good bacteria in the intestines, and stimulate the body’s production of bile.

Rose tea is also relaxing and can be an effective remedy for constipation.
RED CLOVER:

​Flower heads and a couple of their leaves can be added to salads or a tea. They 
stimulate the digestive organs, improve digestion, reduce inflammation of the bowels and help relieve gas.

​If taken at night, it will help both you and your gut bacteria to sleep by soothing the nerves!

And I haven’t even broached the subject of MUSHROOMS yet. But soon. And July is going to be ALL about using local wild foods to nourish your gut and aid digestion. (There are so many, I can't wait to share them with you!)

So maybe try avoiding the stores this month folks... we're heading outdoors!  Get your shoes on and I'll see you in the next post!

After seeing various health professionals over the years, doing my own research, trials and tribulations, I can (say) that this is the real deal, and that what she provides people is a holistic, realistic approach to healing oneself through food"  ~ Elizabeth G.
