Aren’t friends wonderful! 😍So blessed to live in such a beautiful area with incredible people‼️Over 10 years of our Summer Annual Block Party 🎈☀️ its a good time for hellos and goodbyes; Making new friends and some headed off to college for the semester. Amazing to watch all thethe kids grow up!
Krystal Mulder: You guys are great....and just a little FYI....I had a group of teenagers here yesterday (three of them being mine) and they were all talking about how awesome and hilarious of a teacher Mr. Merrill is!
Natalie Furbank3:03 I love this topic, the Merrill family are a great example of not judging people, and loving them.
Darren Burch Congratulations
to an amazing young lady, her caring & nurturing parents, and her
supportive siblings. This inspirational family personifies love.

Odessa Casper Oh My Goodness We just Love All you Videos We will have to try it sometime Thank You for Always sharing!!
Thanks Anna Pember MerrillAnna for the wonderful art project today. It helped us all remember 911 in a very fun way.
Our family is trying to live the 5 pillars of Health. 🍎 Our favorite Pillar is Spiritual/personal growth ♥️, but one that tends to be forgotten often is the importance of eating healthy/Biohacking our poor hijacked bodies. 😝 I often have people asking what I do to help my kids develop. 🤔 They used to spend time in wheelchairs and walkers, but they are getting around a lot better. 😃 Their bodies are working at their best‼️
I wanted to share one of my favorite tidbits that could help all of us
with our health, not just those with disabilities. It's a bit long, but
way worth reading. 👍🏻I love researching and learning how to move forward. It may be slower than others, but it's still forward‼️👏🏻
(I love this picture of my little, Caroline; you can see the
difference of biohacking for 9 months; her countenance, muscle
structure, strength. 💗
She was propped up against the door in the first picture, months later
she stood proudly.) We still continue to Biohack and see lots of
progress🙌🏻
what does your family do to biohack❓🧬
Prebiotics: more bang for your gut.
🧪 SCIENCE 🧫
The gut biome is such a big deal because it isn’t limited to gut health. Its far-reaching effects on the body as a whole are big. And profound. The gut biome can support your immune system. Your heart. Your metabolism. And much, much more. In fact, some researchers have started calling the gut biome the “second brain” 🧠 – probably for good reason.
In essence, your gut biome is made from bacteria, and other microscopic living things – which admittedly sounds gross, but it’s not. These bacteria regulate, shape, and determine how we digest our food, our immune response, and they also have a hand in helping us maintain a healthy weight. These bacteria are divided into two groups: probiotics and prebiotics. You’ve likely seen probiotics everywhere: advertised in the yogurt section of the local grocery store and featured in a lot of popular drinks. Probiotics are largely responsible for restoring the gut’s natural flora. They’re great.
But what about prebiotics? They’re largely unheard of, but they might be better for you than their more heralded sibling.
That’s because the gut biome is more complicated. Much more complicated than simply adding “good bacteria,” or probiotics. And that’s where prebiotics come in.
Prebiotics might not get the same street cred as probiotics, but they’re actually much better at promoting proper gut function as a whole. Put simply, they work with the diverse bacteria within your microbiome to help them grow and function. So although probiotics and prebiotics might sound nearly identical, they serve completely different functions. And here’s why you should consider reaching for probiotics AND prebiotics.
PREBIOTICS AND PROBIOTICS WORK BETTER TOGETHER.
Think of prebiotics and probiotics as a garden. Probiotics plant the seeds, giving your gut biome the good bacteria it needs. Prebiotics are the fertilizer, giving those bacteria, in turn, the food they need to thrive and do their job. Like a one-two punch for you gut (but in a good way), prebiotics and probiotics are better when they’re taken together.
PREBIOTICS ARE PROBABLY SITTING AROUND YOUR KITCHEN.
Unlike probiotics, you may not need to buy something special. That’s because they’re found in some fairly common foods, including:
Mushrooms
Apples
Potatoes
Garlic
Leeks
Onions
Artichokes
Asparagus
This makes prebiotics not just tastier – but a far more affordable option to your daily health routine. No more buying expensive yogurt or trendy drinks. Just open the cupboard and make yourself a healthy meal.
As you build your daily health regimen it’s easy to ignore your gut biome because it works largely unnoticed in the background. But please don’t. A healthy gut means a healthy brain, immune system, and heart. Fortunately, the solution is even easier. Add some prebiotics. Your body will thank you.
