Health & wellness specialist Richard Sutton explained that if you have a healthy gut you have a healthy physical, mental and emotional approach to life

November 27, 2018

On Tuesday November 27th, the WIZO Women Inspired branch, hosted Richard Sutton, a health and wellness specialist, who gave an inspiring and informative address at the home of Joceline Basserabie in Johannesburg. He discussed his belief that a person’s gut controlled all aspects of the individual, including his/her brain. His main message was that if you have a healthy gut you have a healthy physical, mental and emotional approach to life.

He presented a wealth of information on this subject, in particular relating to diet control, for example including the use of pro-biotics, berries, seeds and nuts in one's diet. He also emphasized the importance of exercise as part of a healthy regimen.

The event was attended by about 70 women, who expressed gratitude for Richard’s insights. The proceeds of the event will be applied by WIZO towards the improvement of the lives of women and children in Israel.
