Depressed?\u00a0 Some days are just \u201cdown\u201d days — and sometimes there are tough situations that make our lives stressed.\u00a0 However, it could be your internal \u201cflower garden\u201d that is making you so sad and lethargic.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Your gut contains flora, designed by God to be your garbage disposal system.\u00a0 It separates the nutrients from the waste and helps move the garbage out. \u00a0So what happens if your internal plants and good bacteria look like my flower garden did this past hot Oklahoma summer?<\/p>\n

Nutrients don\u2019t get delivered and the garbage doesn\u2019t get taken out.\u00a0 Toxins float around in the system, lodging in the brain as well as other organs. \u00a0For those on a weight loss journey, you find yourself always wanting to eat, because you are starved for nutrients.\u00a0 The load of toxins can make you feel tired and depressed, which gives you a lack of motivation to stick to your plan.<\/p>\n

What can you do?\u00a0 You can cultivate your flora by taking good probiotic supplements. And guess what kind of eating plan is good for your gut?\u00a0 Yes, there is a link between too much insulin and not enough healthy gut flora.\u00a0 Eating a low glycemic diet will help keep your system healthy and on track.<\/p>\n

Just another reason for making the best food choices!<\/p>\n

Eating to live and living for Christ,<\/p>\n
