Improving Your Gut Health

 

Your gut is the seat of your immune system,

A healthy gut helps to create a healthy mood (think anxiety and depression), and plays a role in maintaining a healthy weight. But did you also know that faulty gut function also causes:

  • Autoimmune conditions

  • Food cravings

  • Makes you feel exhausted.

  • Greatly contributes to skin conditions .

Poor gut function can cause:

  • Low energy/vitality

  • skin sensitivities (eczema, psoriasis, acne for example,

  • high candida

  • Food sensitivities/intolerances

  • Environmental allergies

  • Toxic overload in your body

  • Increased inflammation and joint and muscular pain

  • Decreased ability to sleep deeply

  • Headaches/Migraines.

 

Together we’ll work towards healing your gut.

Food for Thought!

 
  • 75% of your immune system is in your stomach. So if you get sick a lot or for longer or more intensely than others, let’s look at your gut.

 
  • More diverse bacteria in our gut plays part in sending less hunger signals.

  • If you have less diverse microbiome bacteria you are more prone to storing fat.

 
  • 95% of Serotonin, or the Happy Hormone, is produced right in the gut!

 
  • The gut and the brain are linked by the longest nerve in the body called the Vagus nerve. More impulses go from your gut to your brain. Rather than your brain to your gut. So I ask, which is really the first brain? Heal the gut, heal the brain!
