What Would You Do If E.Coli Threatened Your Colon?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that ground beef is the origin of a multi-state E. coli outbreak which started in March 28, 2019 and has so far sickened 109 people in six states, including 17 hospitalizations. E. Coli, is a Gram-negative, facultative anaerobic, rod-shaped, coliform bacterium causing more drama than the House Wives on BRAVO! These facultative anaerobes constitute about 0.1% of gut microbiota and fecal–oral transmission is the major route through which pathogenic strains of the bacterium cause disease.

Our guest Cynthia Thurlow tells her heroining tale of being super healthy one day, to being hospitalized and having a surgeon threaten to remove her colon the next! Could E. Coli be the culprit? This could happen to you so you better listen! Cynthia is a Western medicine trained NP, TEDx speaker x 2, functional nutritionist and passionately believes that the inherent power of food and nutrition can be your greatest asset to your health and wellness journey. She lives in Washington, DC with her husband, boys and two crazy doodles! https://chtwellness.com
