Jeffrey E. Berger, CEO of Abundance in Optimum Wellness, wellness partner with Amare Global, a holistic mental wellness company focused on the microbiome (gut-brain axis, or GBX) and vice president of Cape Coral’s Holistic Chamber of Commerce, is hosting a free Take a Mind Break webinar workshop from 10 to 11 a.m. each Saturday morning on Zoom. Participants learn about Microbiome 101 and the plant-based, science-backed and clinically trialed holistic protocol that’s improving the health of many.

“The Microbiome Project’s research is showing that your gut plays a significant role in those living with physical and mental conditions where stress, anxiety and fatigue are at an all-time high,” says Berger. “Our gut is a very integral component of this multidirectional communication network. The GBX connects our gastrointestinal system (gut), nervous system (brain), and immune system (axis) with a vast array of cellular and biochemical messengers throughout the entire body, including the microbiome, hormones, cytokines and neurotransmitters.” Berger has been on a successful path, having already reversed Type 2 diabetes and lost 60 pounds.
