Happiness and our Gut Bacteria: Are they connected?

COULD our gut bacteria influence our mood? Apparently so. Researchers are now investigating the relationship between the bacteria in our gut and how we think and feel. Gut bacteria has been linked to depression, anxiety, and mood swings. My personal experience with this confirms this.

Massaged Kale with Fennel Salad

This salad is delightfully nourishing and gives you all the benefits of kale, without the digestive distress. When you massage kale you break down some of the tough fibers in the cell wall that make raw kale hard to digest. When our family started eating healthy we couldn’t digest kale very well.
