Before the era of antibiotics and modern medicine, the healing power of fresh air, sunshine, and nature was widely acknowledged. Sicknesses were often treated with rest in the open air, as people understood that nature has its own way of restoring balance. There’s a reason why being outdoors, surrounded by fresh air and natural light, has been proven to improve mental and physical health.

The image highlights the healing power of nature, reminding us that sometimes the best treatment for the body and mind is simply to spend time in nature. Whether it’s hiking in the mountains, relaxing by a river, or just sitting under a tree, the benefits of fresh air and natural surroundings can’t be overstated.

It’s easy to forget the power of nature in our fast-paced lives, but it’s never too late to reconnect. Step outside today and take a deep breath—let nature rejuvenate your body and mind. Where do you love to spend time outdoors?

Digestion made "simple": where each nutrient gets in

Your gut isn’t just one tube. Different nutrients are absorbed at different checkpoints. Here’s the simple breakdown:

1️⃣ Mouth & Stomach

Carbs begin breaking down with salivary amylase.

Proteins start with stomach acid + pepsin.

Vitamin B12 binds to intrinsic factor here.
🟢 Example: Without stomach acid, B12 can’t be absorbed properly.

2️⃣ Liver & Gallbladder

Bile salts emulsify fats, making them easier for enzymes to digest.
🟢 Example: Bile acts like dish soap, breaking fats into smaller droplets.

3️⃣ Pancreas

Sends enzymes into the small intestine: amylases for carbs, proteases for protein, lipases for fat.
🟢 Example: These enzymes finish the job of turning food into absorbable units.

4️⃣ Duodenum (first section of small intestine)

Carbs → disaccharides.

Proteins → amino acids.

Fats → monoglycerides + fatty acids.
🟢 Example: This is where most chemical digestion happens.

5️⃣ Jejunum (middle small intestine)

Main absorption zone: sugars, amino acids, iron, calcium, folate, and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K).
🟢 Example: Low stomach acid or no bile means nutrients here get poorly absorbed.

6️⃣ Ileum (end of small intestine)

Vitamin B12 + intrinsic factor absorbed.

Bile salts recycled back to the liver.
🟢 Example: People with Crohn’s disease affecting the ileum often end up B12 deficient.

7️⃣ Colon (large intestine)

Absorbs water, sodium, potassium, and leftover bile salts.
🟢 Example: This is why diarrhea causes dehydration. Water absorption fails here.

Each nutrient has its own “checkpoint” along the gut. Carbs, proteins, and fats mostly absorb in the jejunum, B12 in the ileum, and water + electrolytes in the colon. Smooth digestion depends on stomach acid, bile, enzymes, and every section of the gut working in sync.
