What is inflammation?

Inflammation is how your body fights infections and heals from injuries. Sometimes, however, it gets out of hand and lasts longer than it should. This is chronic inflammation.

Chronic inflammation may appear as fatigue, skin issues, joint pain, poor injury recovery, persistent pain, bloating, weight gain or loss, and malaise.

Here are just a few fruits and veggies that are in season for the month of October! Which is your favorite?

Produce that is in season tastes the best!

A wonderful way to support local farmers is by purchasing seasonal produce at farmers' markets!

It can also save you money, as you can find seasonal produce in larger amounts, which means they may go on sale more often at your local grocer

Hope everyone had a wonderful summer. The season will linger on until September 22.

It's super hot out in Southern California! You can still enjoy summer fruits and vegetables like watermelon - while its peak season is in July & August, the last harvest is in September.

As for berries, did you know that the season for locally grown raspberries in California runs from April to as late as November? Now, if they would only last more than a day in the fridge, but that is another story.

Zinc is an essential trace mineral.

Here are a few of the benefits of zinc:

Supports healthy immune function: Zinc helps with the growth and activation of immune cells. It also strengthens our immune defense by regulating immune pathways.

Wound healing: Zinc plays a crucial role in our body's healing mechanism. 🤕

Reproductive health: Zinc helps with male and female reproductive health. Zinc helps with germ cell development, fertilization, and pregnancy. A zinc deficiency can affect fertility.

Zinc isn't naturally produced in the body. So try to incorporate zinc-rich foods into your diet and consider supplementation if needed.

What is mindful eating?🍽️

Mindful eating can help you pay more attention to your experiences, cravings, and physical cues when you eat. Research shows that it can help with binge eating and improve digestion.

Here are some ways to practice mindful eating:
⁠
➡️ Eat more slowly
➡️ Chew your food thoroughly⁠
➡️ Minimize distractions⁠
➡️ Use all of your senses
➡️ Notice emotional triggers
➡️ Stop when you are comfortably - but not overly - full

Try it anytime and anywhere - a small pause can transform eating into a connection with food. 🤍
