181 - Nourishing Your Cells Year Round w/ Dr. Michelle Jorgensen
Description
In today’s episode, Dr. Michelle and I discuss her new book, "Living Well with Dr. Michelle," and explore some interesting concepts that can help us all improve our health. Here are three key takeaways that I think you’ll find helpful:
Dr. Michelle's CellWell model highlights that health starts with our cells. It focuses on four key needs: supplies (nutrients, water, air), support (environment and lifestyle), security (defense against harm), and signals (cell communication). This model simplifies health, emphasizing the importance of meeting our cells' needs for better well-being.
Dr. Michelle connects our health to the changing seasons, explaining that our bodies have different needs at different times. Through her seasonal assessment, you can identify what your body requires, such as using seasonal foods and practices to address symptoms like water retention or coldness in winter. This approach encourages adapting health strategies based on what your body needs.
Dr. Michelle advocates for a holistic approach, viewing the body as a whole rather than focusing solely on symptoms. Sharing her journey, she highlights the influence of environment, nutrition, and lifestyle on health, encouraging natural solutions and addressing root causes before turning to medications or invasive treatments.
I can't wait for you all to listen to this episode! Tune in now.
