Join me as we find out: • How does the digestion process work? • If cooking breaks down important enzymes, what solutions are there? • Are dishes with complex ingredients more challenging for the body to digest? • Is their enzyme formula for everyone? • When is the best time to take probiotics? Also, Wade and Matt will tell us about: • The five stages to digestion. • The importance of enzymes. • The importance of focused eating. • How many probiotics miss their mark. It was a pleasure to have Wade and Matt on the podcast to share their wisdom and knowledge: "Enzymes are like cutting the grass, and probiotics are like mulching the grass."
