The
important but overlooked role of the intestine.
Most
of us never give a thought to our intestines until they send
a loud and clear message that something is not right. We have
long
neglected our gastrointestinal health and have forgotten what
many cultures have long known–the state of our gut has a profound
influence on our overall health. It would seem that the gut is
more responsible than we ever imagined for our mental well-being,
our health and how we feel. It’s time to pay attention
to this unknown but critical brain.
Find YOUR doctor, not just A doctor.
For anyone who is suddenly diagnosed with a serious
illness or the possibility of a serious illness, determining what
steps to take next can be overwhelming. Finding the right doctor,
at a time when our mind is spinning, can seem truly beyond our ability.
When we are faced with a potential serious long term or life-threatening
illness, it becomes critical that whatever doctors we choose to
work with are doctors that we trust and like and feel really comfortable
with.
An advocate can be anyone--a friend, a partner, a child or parent,
or a professional who is trained to help.
