Happy International Pilates Day!

As I move into my 50th year I am more and more grateful for my decision to become a Pilates teacher over 25 years ago. The springs are both my best friends and greatest enemies. 😅😅. Many mahalos to all of my teachers, friends, and students that have been part of my journey. Remember to breathe!

This week’s microbiome definition:

SCFAS (SHORT-CHAIN FATTY ACIDS)

Short-chain fatty acids are the primary microbial metabolites produced from fiber fermentation. This include butyrate, acetate, and propionate. Short-chain fatty acids are what determines our health or sickness.

What does that mean for you? Short-chain fatty acids are produced by good bacteria when they eat fibers and polyphenols. You must eat a variety of fibers and polyphenols in order to support a variety of species who produce the short-chain fatty acids in order for you to be healthy!

If you are interested in building a diverse and resilient microbiome to eliminate you pain and build a long and enjoyable life consider investing in yourself and joining me for Upside-Down Nourishment or returning to Upside-Down Nourishment personalized programs, please fill out this form to see if we might be a good fit to work together.​ Do not let distance stop you!

REMEMBER, self care is health care! If you don’t care for yourself you won’t be able to care for anyone else.

Have a beautiful day!
