Eating the rainbow is only the beginning.

The phytonutrients in colorful foods interact with the ecosystem within us. Gut microbes can transform many of these plant compounds into new metabolites, while phytonutrients can also influence the composition and activity of the microbiome.

It’s a two-way conversation: plants ↔ microbes ↔ us.

And because our microbiomes differ, two people can eat the same food and produce different phytochemical metabolites.

I think of this as a kind of Phyto-Fitness: cultivating the microbial ecosystem that helps us interact with the chemistry of plants.

Eat the rainbow. Feed the ecosystem. Keep the conversation going.

"Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food!"

While fiber itself has many important health benefits, some of its protective effects may actually be due to the presence of polyphenols, a class of phytonutrients found in plant foods. https://bit.ly/2qFGw8F

If you've ever been on a sodium-restricted diet, you know how salted foods can start tasting too salty. You just naturally start favoring less salty food. A similar thing can happen with fat, too. https://bit.ly/2MmG0aV

"Breathing is the simplest thing you do all day, and one of the most powerful. It happens whether you notice it or not, but when you bring awareness to it, breathing becomes more than a biological function — it becomes a tool for regulation, clarity, resilience, and presence."

It doesn't take much fat from plants to make a difference either. For example, just three grams of fat in an entire meal may be enough to boost nutrient absorption. Dark green leafy veggies are the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. What’s the best way to prep them? https://bit.ly/2EoChbd
