Health is Like an Onion

Writer's picture: Chris CosbyChris Cosby



We often focus on symptoms and want to find a solution to the symptoms. This is usually because the symptoms are bothering us. What's causing the symptoms though? Have you ever considered the digestive system as the root cause to your symptoms?

The digestive system begins where? In the mouth. Yes, even the tongue can give you an idea of what the status of your health is in the organs of the body. It's time to pay attention to our digestive system, the whole digestive system. The digestive system runs from the mouth > esophagus > stomach > small intestine > large intestine > sigmoid colon.


Let's look at health from the example of an onion: an onion has many layers, correct? As you peel each outer layer away, you end up reaching the core of it. Some layers are larger than others. Health works the same way. In order to find the root cause of your symptoms, you need to begin peeling away the layers -one layer at a time. As each layer is peeled away, you may have smaller or bigger layers present themselves. Deal with each layer one at a time so not to overwhelm the body.


Beginning with the digestive system, this layer is a rather large layer and it may take a longer period of time to bring balance to it. Functional medicine testing can help narrow down what is truly going on inside the intestines. If this is not in your budget, find a practitioner who does muscle testing (aka- applie kinesiology) to see what the body truly needs. We can be given many supplements by health care practitioners but we may not need all those supplements. Every single body is unique, so what works for one person may not work for another person.


Are you ready to take back your health or simply take steps to begin improving your health?
