BLUblox

The podcast is sponsored by BLUblox. I have become so passionate about light optimization recently, and filtering out computer light and blue light entirely after the sun sets. I wasn’t doing anything about this until about a year ago, and I was experiencing eye strain, migraines, and an unexplained wired and tired feeling, especially at night. Now I wear BLUblox computer filter glasses anytime I’m looking at screens, and BLUblox sleep lenses at night, and I haven’t experienced symptoms since.

BLUblox was created because they saw the need for a product that was exactly in line with the peer-reviewed academic literature. There are a lot of cheaply made lenses out there that don’t actually block all the blue and green light. Don’t waste your time on that, go to blublox.com/wellfed, and use the code WELLFED for 15% off.

It’s something that we’re all familiar with and, in most cases, embarrassed by. You’re probably wondering what I’m talking about…gas. While it might be common, the majority of people don’t want to have it. What can you do to reduce it? Can it be prevented?

Eat for nutrition! Think about your macronutrients and micronutrients! We hear this all the time. But HOW does it all happen? How does your omelet turn into fuel for your cells? What actually happens to get our broccoli from the way we eat to the way our bodies can use it? This episode has your answers! Included is not just the anatomy and physiology of the gastrointestinal tract but the daily steps we can take to ensure proper function plus tools for extra support and repair. After all, perhaps it's not so much about what we eat...but what we absorb!

Think maybe you go too much? Are you like many of us who hold it 'til we get home and is this a problem? Answers to these questions are just the beginning of what you'll learn in this episode! Plus, Jenn tackles what our bowel movements say about our overall health and the increasing prevalence of colorectal cancer in those under age 50. You do NOT want to miss this episode.
