Digestive Health

Gastrointestinal health is crucial for multiple reasons. It is responsible for the digestion and absorption of the foods we eat to ensure we get the vitamins, minerals, and macronutrients necessary for energy production. The gut is essential for immune responses and defending against pathogens and inflammation. The brain and gut share direct communications leading to mental clarity and well-being. It is increasingly recgonized that dysbiosis in the gut is associated with insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. Lastly, but most obvious that poor gut health is associated with bloating, gas, and poor quality bowel movements.  Prioritizing gastrointestinal health contributes to overall wellness and longevity.
