Gut Health
Your gut includes your stomach, intestines and colon. It is responsible for breaking down food and absorbing the nutrients thereof into the body and excreting waste. Research indicates that your gut microbiome influences every part of the body, and is connected to:
- The Immune system
- Mental health
- Autoimmune diseases
- Endocrine disorders
- Gastrointestinal disorders
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Digestion
Brain-Gut Connection
This refers to the communication between your brain and gut, via the nervous system. More information is sent through the gut than any other organ in the body. The gut also has the most nerve cells than any other body system and forms 80% of the immune system.
The brain and gut must have a sound path of communication, to ensure the body receives the nutrients it needs. The Brain-Gut connection is, among others, responsible for:
- Hunger and satiety
- Food sensitivity
- Digestion
- Metabolism
- Mood
- Stress levels
- Pain tolerance
- Cognitive function
- Immunity
