What’s Wrong With My Digestion?
Inflammatory disease, immune health, allergies, digestive complaints, mental health, mal-absorption of nutrients, hormone imbalance, cardiovascular disease and learning & behaviour problems are just some examples of illnesses that begin with compromised gut health.
Did you know…
- 70% of your immune system is controlled by cells in your gut (intestines) so if gut health is compromised so is your immune system.
- Many essential vitamins and enzymes are manufactured in a healthy digestive system.
- Absorption of essential micro and macronutrients occurs within the digestive tract.
- Compromised digestion leads to a host of escalating health problems.
- Gut health problems often begin at birth and are made worse by diet and lifestyle.
The human body is like a planet inhabited by various micro-creatures which we can’t live without. Microorganisms are prolific on our skin, eyes, lungs, excretory organs, and in our digestive system. A healthy adult has approximately 1.5 – 2kg of gut bacteria. This is a highly organised micro-world. Certain species predominate and control others.
Health problems related to poor digestion and immune problems include:
- Colds and flu
- Abnormal weight gain
- Cancer
- Inflammatory disease
- Abnormal weight gain
- Arthritis, Gout and asthma
