For so long, gluten has been demonized. In the pursuit of improving their health, people have eliminated this particular structural protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and triticale.

You have a lot more control over your health than you may think! (Or than people in the medical profession may have told you.)

When things get challenging, we often turn to external sources for solutions - whether that’s a partner, doctor, or someone else. So rather than learning how to holistically care for our mind, body, and soul, we look to others for band-aid solutions. If you’re ready to take your health into your own hands, then you’re going to love this masterclass with Kelly Noonan Gores. 

Kelly Noonan Gores is the director of the Heal documentary, author of Heal, and host of the Heal with Kelly Podcast, interviewing leading doctors, scientists, spiritual teachers, and healers around the globe on her mission to find out the true extent of human potential and healing.
