I’m sure you have heard all the words….leaky gut, probiotics, IBS, Gerd!!! Just to name a few! But what is it and what should I do about it?
There are many commercials on the television regarding these issues. They even have a emoji for it…💩. First here the facts:
Microbiome is the genetic material of all microbes-bacteria, fungi protozoa and viruses that live on and inside the human body. The number of genes in all microbes in one person’s micrbiome is 200 times the number of genes in the human genome. What does that mean? Well, all these micros live in you body, mostly in your stomach, they are like little creatures that help break down the food in your stomach and intestines. Once your food is broken down it can then be absorbed into your blood stream to nourish your body.
Symptoms of an unhealthy gut: 1. Upset stomach, or disturbances like gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea and heartburn 2. A high-sugar diet 3. Unintentional weight changes 4. Sleep disturbances or constant fatigue 5. Skin irritation 6. Autoimmune conditions 7. Food intolerances
Five Steps to optimal digestive health: 1. Eat whole, unprocessed foods 2. Eliminate food allergies 3. Treat any infections 4. Replenish your digestive enzymes 5. Get good fat….(avocados, yogurt)
Hope this information is helpful, do a search in google for more information and remember 💩 is a good thing!
