Summary
Research is showing that many of our common mental health issues are rooted in the immune system. - Autumn Smith
Today on the podcast we're joined by Autumn Smith, co-founder of Paleovalley and co-host of the top-ranked Optimize Paleo Podcast, as she shares the important role nutrition plays in our mental and emotional wellbeing.
Autumn suffered acute digestive issues since she was a teenager and numerous experts failed to offer solutions that worked. After years of dealing with poor gut health and a lack of abundant energy, she decided to take matters into her own hands. Through extensive research, experimentation, and some help from her loving husband Chas, she adopted a Paleo diet and was able to completely resolve her health issues.
With her newfound vitality and zest for life, she quit her job as a trainer and launched Paleovalley with the belief that everything you eat and every added ingredient is an opportunity to either detract from your health or improve it.
Join us on Wellness + Wisdom 135 as Autumn shares her strategies for clean eating, tips to navigate our misleading nutritional landscape, and the psychological tools we need to create lasting behavior change.
