GUT HEALTH & RESTORATION
Why is Gut Health so important?
The gastrointestinal tract, or gut, plays a vital role in overall health, impacting chronic conditions, the immune system, brain health, and more due to its symbiotic relationship with trillions of microorganisms. Proper nutrition and environmental factors significantly influence gut health, making it a key focus in cutting-edge research for various diseases.
Some important facts about your gut:
- Approximately about 70-80% of your immune system resides in your gut.
- Microbial cells outnumber body cells by 10 to 1.6. Your microbial genome outnumbers your human genome by 150 to 1.6.
- Gut microbiota produces 90% of your serotonin. Western diet and food additives impact gut health, which is linked to various health issues.
- Bacteria in the gut produce hormone-like substances and regulate hormone output, with the microbiota being considered another endocrine organ, which can alter dramatically in response to diet.
Eat the right foods:
- Choose whole, unprocessed foods whenever possible.
- Opt for organic foods to reduce toxin exposure.
- Consume at least 3 cups of vegetables daily, preferably organic and varied.
- Include protein in every meal, especially if you are physically active.
- Eat fermented or cultured foods daily, like homemade kefir for beneficial bacteria.
- Use healthy oils like extra virgin olive, coconut, avocado, and sesame oil for flavor.
- For those with gut issues, limit dairy to kefir and yogurt without additives or sugars, and include ghee and eggs.
Take the right supplements:
- L-glutamine has been shown in studies to assist in repairing the gut lining.
- MegaSporeBioticTM is a spore-based, broad-spectrum probiotic that has been shown in clinical trials to improve leaky gut within 30 days. This is an amazing probiotic for anyone, increasing microbial diversity for anyone and making your gut environment suitable for essential species to proliferate.
- MegaPrebioticTM feeds the essential bacteria.
- MegaIgG200TM is a great detoxifier! Contact us for any of these products at 1percentbetterboris@gmail.com
- Other supplements that help repair the gut lining: Quercetin, Curcumin, Resveratrol, EPA/DHA, and Bifidobacteria.
Remove the wrong toxins and gut-damaging factors:
- Sugar
- Artificial sweeteners
- Any food sensitivities
- NSAIDS
- Smoking
- Unnecessary antibiotics
- Preservatives (carrageen and citric acid are evil)
- GMO foods
- Excessive alcohol consumption (we suggest no alcohol-it is an actual toxin)
- Stress-super important to reduce stress: try to meditate daily, do yoga or mindfulness.
- Eat low-mercury fish, such as salmon, shrimp, trout, and sardines.
- Stay away from harmful oils: corn, canola, soy, any regular vegetable oil, blended olive oil (this is mainly corn oil).
