This article explores the hidden physiological reasons our immunity drops during seasonal transitions, how lifestyle and micronutrients influence the gut-immune connection, and what practical steps you can take to stay resilient when everyone else is reaching for tissues.

As summer fades and autumn arrives, your body needs time to adjust. Learn how to align your nutrition, sleep, and habits with the season to stay balanced, energized, and resilient.

Understanding methylation is like discovering your body’s hidden control panel — and the nutrients that support it may be simpler than you think.

Science is showing us that our diet does more than fuel us — it can influence how our genes express, affecting long-term health and even future generations.
