Understanding Holistic Nutrition For Better Health

Did you know that everything we consume creates a chain reaction in our bodies? 

This week's guest Danielle Ryan Brioda, who is a registered herbalist of the American Herbalists Guild, a certified holistic nutritionist and national educator at Four Sigmatic, explained that a holistic approach to our nutrition can provide us with a better understanding of how everything is connected and what we consume can either assist our healing and wellbeing or have the opposite effect of damaging our body's ecosystem.
