There are a lot of voices in the health and wellness space. Dr. Mark Hyman is one of the few I trust. As a leader in the functional medicine movement, Dr. Hyman focuses on the root causes of chronic illness rather than simply treating symptoms. He’s deeply committed to connecting the dots between what we eat, how we live, and how we feel. 

So, when he signs off on – and personally uses – a product, I pay attention. His personal stack includes a few products from Big Bold Health, a brand founded by Dr. Jeffrey Bland, a pioneer in functional medicine and one of Dr. Hyman’s teachers and influences. Curious about their hero ingredient, an ancient superseed that's been cultivated for over 3,500 years and features immune balance and health-promoting properties, I tried their HTB Sprout Powder. Here are 4 reasons why I’d recommend trying the brand Dr. Hyman considers crucial in his long-term health journey.
