As a recent podcast guest, Dr. John Douillard (Alter Your Health #142) pointed out, for all animals besides humans, life depends on season eating. For example, a deer eats mainly twigs and bark in the winter time, which feed the shifting microbial environment in the deer's digestive tract. If the same deer ate the tree bark in the summer, it would likely be fatal! This is due to the fact that the deer would lack proper microbes to aid in digestion of plants eaten out of seasonally.
If eating out of season can literally KILL some animals, one would think it may also be important for human beings to follow the seasons as well to achieve and maintain optimal health.


Remember the importance of WFPB nutrition for optimal health. Eating whole, real foods is important regardless of the season! The natural season of winter does NOT mean pumpkin pie, Christmas cookies, eggnog, or cheese wheels.
So, let's dive into our favorite foods for this winter season...
