Want to “heal your gut naturally”, but don’t know where to start?!
Look no further than my story of overcoming the “worst” gut issues for some inspiration, and these 3 easy steps to heal your gut naturally! (made simple)…
Did You Have “Golden Poo” Today?
Before we get into the “nitty gritty” details of how to heal your gut naturally, I have to ask…Did you have the golden poo today?
You know: complete elimination…S or C shaped…easy to pass in 1 or 2 pushes…and that feeling of euphoria like your little dog gets when he does the doo…golden poo…
Anyone?
C’mon…Ha, ok I am partially joking.
But you know, your gut is pretty important for your overall health and today, we’re going to help you understand a bit more about why that is, and more importantly how to improve it.
The Root Cause of “Bad Gut Health”
Let me ask you a question: Why is it that our great grandparents ate foods like steak and potatoes, smoked cigarettes, worked hard for very little pay, and never went to the gym a day in their life – yet they were 3 times less likely to be overweight, or face diseases that we do today—like cancer, autoimmunity and heart disease?
Meanwhile, in our generation, more Americans have a chronic disease than do not, 88% are metabolically unhealthy, and the annual cost spent on treating diabetes alone is about what experts estimate it would take to end world hunger—all this despite gyms on every corner, 24/7 access to health information at our fingertips, and 1 out of 2 people on a diet at any time, eating gluten-free everything.
Many of us know what to do, and are even taking action…But something is not working! (And it’s not about the food. It’s not about more knowledge).
Studies shows that a big part of that answer comes down to BAD GUT HEALTH. Something researchers call the “disappearing gut microbiome theory.”
Plain and simple: Our ancestors has healthier guts—almost 50% more microbes than we have today—connected to better health overall…
Hippocrates once said that “all disease begins in the gut.”
And I say, “all wellness begins in the gut” too. Health is an inside job.
Cool Facts on How Heal Your Gut Naturally
Your gut determines your metabolism and weight. Mice given gut bacteria from obese subjects gain weight, whereas mice that get bacteria from lean subjects lose weight—no change in their diet or exercise at all.
The gut influences your immunity—at least 70% of it; inhibiting cancer tumor growth, skin breakouts and food intolerances.
Your gut impacts your blood sugar and cravings! Hate brussels sprouts? You are a super-taster—with a complete different profile of gut bugs than the salad lovers of the world…just like if you can’t stop craving cheese or sweets, you do too. (Meaning you finally have scientific evidence why you ate that whole plate of cookies—They made you do it!).
And, the gut influences your brain. In fact, it’s called your “2nd brain.”
There are over 500 million neurons—brain cells—inside your gut alone, and experts say 99% of all disease is related to stress — as stress sends signals down the gut brain axis influencing how you feel.
Explaining why we all know a 90 year old fat and HAPPY Uncle Joe who smokes cigars, eats bologna on white bread and orange soda, and sits in his “lazy boy” every single day of his life, yet seemingly lives symptom free.
Whereas 20 and 30-something year-old Dr. Lauryn, eats pristine, works out every day—sometimes twice, and takes boatloads of supplements, but gets diagnosed with over 10 chronic diseases no doctor could explain.
That was my experience…until I figured out how to heal from the inside out. You can totally heal your gut naturally following this as your guide.
