Biohacking Back from Crohn’s Disease

In this episode Ingrid De La O who is the co-founder of Tusol Wellness talks to Angela about her own journey, bio hacking her way back from Crohn’s Disease, to being in a place where she can choose what she wants to eat. After arriving at a point where she got tired of waiting for someone else to fix her, she began to look at a holistic approach treating the individual as a whole, to enhance the quality of life. Her journey led to the founding of Tusol Wellness, who produce organic smoothies which are produced without mechanical extraction to make sure that the products are ultra-clean and do not contain any heavy metals. She shares great advice and information about the ways you can boost your pharmaceutical deficiency and improve your foundations of health to support your body’s resilience.   KEY TAKEAWAYS We often look at and treat the symptoms in isolation. Not treating the individual as a whole to enhance the quality of life because everything is connected. We are not able to currently get our food and medicine from one place as our indigenous ancestors did. We are eating inflammatory foods without enough diversity across our diets. There are hundreds of flavonoids available to you through different plants, fruits and vegetables in your diet but we tend to consume the same things every day. The extraction process for plant products is often done through hexanes because it’s cost-effective. Hexanes have been associated with hurting the cell membranes and damaging the central nervous system. If you are eating fibre with your probiotics then they are able to attach themselves to the fibre and travel successfully into your intestine. If you can fix your foundations of health then your body will be resilient to other things Focus on getting your sleep right – so your body can regenerate. We are more than 75% water if you have good quality water that is conductive then you are helping your body. Always eat the highest quality foods to support the foundations of health. There is a balance between pushing to increase your resilience and moving back to do less. Doing less can lower the inflammation and lower your stress. Your body will always keep you in check   BEST MOMENTS ‘We need a vast medicinal food chest ‘A lot of the heavy metals become part of your matrix for years’ ‘It’s having the whole plant and everything that goes with it, the medicinal qualities that really make the difference’   VALUABLE RESOURCES Tusol WellnessHigh Performance Health podcast series\ Transform your sleep DNA optimization  High Performance website  Female Bio Hacker   ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster   Angela is a Nutritionist, Health and Performance Coach.
