After reading part 1 you should be convinced that having a healthy microbiome is key not just to digestive health, but also to health in many other ways as well .

Heartburn is very common and see it all the time with the people I work with. Sometimes people don’t get heartburn but they do feel that food sometimes just sits in their stomach. In either case, the root cause is the same.

Usually when someone is faced with heartburn and that uncomfortable feeling like the food is not digesting they will turn to antacids to remedy the problem. This has the effect of neutralising the stomach acid (know as Hydorchloric acid or HCL) and the heart burn goes away. Problem solved, or so you think, till the condition comes back again.

Essential Oils for Fabulous Weight Loss

So I took out some peppermint and inhaled it a few times and amazingly my stomach settled down and the headache dissipated. Ok, it’s not that amazing really, the ability of peppermint to settle the stomach and relieve headaches is very well know. But what is not very well know is that essential oils could help with weight loss.
