Why do African Americans face the highest rates of chronic illness, stress-related disease, and early death?It’s not just biology-it’s the cumulative impact of history, racialized trauma, and structural neglect.Learn the truth about Black health and wellness.In Black Wellness Barriers, Dr. Tawainna Houston-a licensed Naturopathic Doctor and cultural wellness educator-uncovers the deep roots of Black health disparities in America. Blending historical research, public health insight, and holistic healing wisdom, she reveals how centuries of systemic racism have left biological imprints that still shape our physical and mental well-being today.From the myth of Black biological inferiority to the rise of chronic conditions like hypertension, reproductive cancers, and autoimmune disorders, Dr. Houston connects the dots between past injustices and present-day disease vulnerabilities.
