Summary

Chronic inflammation is a precursor to a myriad of diseases and illness, and the foods and lifestyle choices we're making are largely at fault.

This week's guest on the Yoga Talk Show hopes to change all that—and more.

If you're a vegetarian, live a high-stress lifestyle and/or are over 50 years of age, there's a very good chance you need to supplement with vitamin B12. B12 is one of the few vitamins that our body doesn't produce on its own. If you don't eat or supplement with B12, you will develop a deficiency that could lead to anemia, nerve damage, mood and mental health problems.

doctor. If you are on any kind of plant-based regime it's probably smart just to
