Use Food As Medicine To Heal the Mind & Body

The Standard American Diet (SAD) causes inflammation in the body, which leads to a host of physical and mental health issues. In this video, functional medicine physician Mark Hyman explains the effects of an ultra processed diet and goes on to talk about how we can use food to combat disease and illness. He discusses some foods we can eliminate for the biggest impact, things to think about when eating meat, and ways to tell how nutritious our produce will be. The bottom line here is that food is information that we give our bodies, and the more “whole” we eat, the healthier we will be, no matter what diet or nutritional values you subscribe to.
