Digestive Care_{Rebuild Your Digestive System}

Healthy digestion begins with prevention_{Chronic and autoimmune diseases are directly related to the gastrointestinal tract}

Our gastrointestinal system is a complex ecosystem. It is comprised of a microbiome of trillions of microbes and the study of the microbiome is exploding. The maintenance of this healthy microbiome in the gut is essential to host wellbeing and health. It is a cornerstone to optimal immune health, response to toxins and foreign substances, homeostasis, inflammation, and overall resilience.

When the intestinal microbiome is altered, by the ingestion of toxins, allergens, and unhealthy substances, it causes adverse effects to the health of the human host resulting in symptoms such as chronic constipation, cramping, bloating and diarrhea – you are what you eat. Assessing your complete digestive health provides an understanding of deficiencies that affect not only your gastrointestinal system but also your total body health.

Along with the normal aging process comes a reduction of microbial diversity in the intestinal microbiome. This is caused by a shift towards an unhealthy lifestyle factors and inadequate nutrition, resulting in increased markers of inflammation and frailty. These then contribute to the pathogenesis of many chronic disease, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and dementia.
