Episode notes

Digestion affects your overall health and is continually being more (and better) researched. Today, Sue and Alex are diving into part one of a 'digestion starter pack' to get you in the most optimal place to digest your foods. Listen in as they break down what constitutes good digestion, bad digestion, and ways to improve your digestion.

As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Without further ado, let's get into today's episode.
