We know that stress has a negative influence on our health. And yet, as high performers, we simply cannot eliminate all the pressures we face. But what if we could build a higher level of stress resilience?

Dr. Shawn Talbott contends that we CAN better equip our bodies to handle stress by improving our gut health. And in the process, we can strengthen our immune system AND take our mental fitness to the next level.
