Kevin was devastated about his diagnosis.  At the time, Kevin had gut health issues, poor energy, wasn’t sleeping well, and had high stress.  So, Kevin knew he had to address everything to fix his health. Finally, Kevin got the right plan for his health and bones.  [06:10] The Answer To Your Health Problems Won’t Come From The Pharmacy  Kevin always thought that the answer to his health problems would come from a pharmacy or a doctor.  Throughout his life, Kevin took sleeping pills, antidepressants, antibiotics, and countless other medications to help address the signs and symptoms of his condition.  However, he never really received a complete resolution of those issues because he was just covering up the cause. Kevin just wanted to divest himself from thinking that the solution to his health was in a pill.  [09:20] The Importance of Gut Health For Your Overall Health Your body and your bones are like plants. To grow, they need nutrients and the right conditions. Most people focus on nutrients like salads and smoothies. They’re not considering the soil. Our gut is like the soil; it is where we absorb almost everything.  To absorb anything, you need roots in your soil.  Our roots are called villi. They're these tiny little hairlike projections that cover our small intestine. The villi will shuttle nutrients into your bloodstream so they can travel where they are needed in your body.  When you have poor digestion, you won’t be able to break down food properly.  [13:4
