With most of the population suffering from a leaky gut and associated symptoms, why not balance your microbiome and take action on your own unique genetic markers? Emerging scientific research shows how environmental influences can affect the expression of our genes. Further discoveries point to the fact that some of our genes can be turned on or off primarily based on nutritional supplementation. You are one-of-a kind, so your supplements should also be as unique. NucleoGenex is the only company able to formulate a precision nutritional supplement to a microgram dose for you, based off your own genetic markers.

What is Physical Literacy?
Physical literacy is the mastery of a range of fundamental movement skills that enable and encourage lifelong participation in physical and sporting activities. It’s the philosophy that underpins physical education in schools, and more and more, it’s being seen as the most effective antidote to childhood obesity and the many problems associated with our increasingly sedentary lifestyles. Sportball champions physical literacy by focusing on and promoting building skills for life, including sport skills, pro social skills, and motor skills. Sportball’s curriculum teaches physical literacy through its methodology, in which all games, activities, and instructions have a purpose and expected outcome.

The Effects of Stress on Your Hair
It has been said that stress can make you go gray or cause you to lose your hair. But can it? Hair loss due to stress can occur after a traumatic life event such as divorce, death, or severe financial worries. This temporary hair loss, called ‘telogen effluvium,’ can also be caused by factors such as hormonal changes, illness, or poor diet. Hair evolves in a cycle of growth (anagen); transition (catagen); and resting (telogen). Prolonged or extreme stress can cause hair to prematurely enter telogen and break more easily. Stressful events can shock the hair cycle, pushing more hair into the shedding phase.
A Natural Source of Probiotics
Fermented foods are the most natural source of probiotics – bacteria that are good for your gut. As one of the oldest ways to preserve food, fermenting involves a process called lactofermentation, where bacteria feed on starches and sugars in food and create lactic acid. This promotes good bacteria and beneficial B vitamins, vitamin K, enzymes, and short chain fatty acids that are great for our health when consumed. Some common food items that contain probiotics include yogurt, sauerkraut, kimchi, kombucha, milk and water kefir, certain cheeses, tempeh, and miso. Try adding as many fermented foods as possible to your daily diet!
