Episode 21: The 3 Things You Should Be Doing to Restore Your Gut Health

Do your stomach issues have a silent hold on your life? Have you been to the doctor and her tests say "Everything's fine." but you just don't feel right. If that's the case, you might be suffering from dysbiosis- an imbalance of different organisms in the digestive tract. And it's not just your stomach that is affected, either. It can lead to skin reactions, chronic fatigue, weight gain/loss- to name a few. Did you know that 90% of your immune system lies in your gut? Your entire digestive system is like a massive, distributed sensor network - constantly sampling what's going on in your body and letting your brain know when there are any problems. Your entire mind-body connection depends upon it! What happens when you don't take care of your gut? All kinds of stuff - from depression and anxiety to skin conditions and chronic pain. And the culprit is not some random virus--it's actually bacteria (or rather, lack thereof).  Gut health? What is that!?! Well let's dive into the world of digestion. Our gut is where the battle for optimal health begins. The digestive system can either be a source of health and wellness or it can be a source of illness and disease. Until about 10 years ago, most people thought that our digestive system was separate from the rest of our body - and that stomach acid or antibiotics were bad for us. However, we now know that the gut is the center of our immune system - and we continue to discover how this is true. If you have chronic digestive issues, or if you simply want to feel better, here are some things you should be doing to boost your gut health.  Gut health is something that is becoming more and more popular these days, but what does it actually mean? In this podcast, we discuss 3 things you can do to restore your gut health.
