Marjoram Roasted Cauliflower

  Okay, be honest… did you know roasted cauliflower was even a thing before AIP? Me neither. Pre-AIP I thought cauliflower was best served boiled with liquid cheese poured over it. B-O-R-I-N-G.

Host vs. Human: How Our Microbiome Controls Every Aspect of Our Health

Many health and wellness experts are uncovering the extent to which our microbiome impacts our health. Micro-what, you say? I’m talking about the balance of beneficial versus harmful microbes in our body. Did you know that 90% of our body’s cells are bacteria, protozoa, yeast, and even viruses?
