When I tell my patients “food is medicine”, I don’t mean perfection, I mean progress. Your gut health affects your immune system, blood sugar, energy, even mood. The bacteria in your gut responds to what you feed them. More fiber and Whole Foods support balance. Highly processed foods tend to increase inflammation over time. But I also understand real life. Healthy food can be expensive. Some neighborhoods don’t have easy access to fresh produce. Many of you are working long hours, raising families, doing your best with what’s available. This is not about guilt, it’s about small, realistic steps.
