{Gluten Free} 4-Seed Health Bread
Happy Monday! I made it through the Gut Cleanse week and I am feeling pretty chuffed with myself – and so should you if you were cleansing with me. 😁 So in the spirit of keeping things clean – I came up with a new recipe for a healthy Gluten Free Seed Bread yesterday… So, you know that meme – ‘You don’t go to Dischem knowing what you need, Dischem tells you what you need”?

{DF / GF / Vegan} Reset your Gut before December
When someone suggests you “go with your gut” — they are more right than you probably realize. That is because your gut is actually considered your second brain and it is changing the way we understand the links between digestion, mood, health and even the way we think.

While not only critical for these everyday functions, your gut also holds a life force of its own. Food does not just digest from chewing and swallowing;…
