INTEGRATED GUT HEALTH
About
Our skin is our largest organ. While it’s important to feed your skin from the outside with the best ingredients and nutrients, it’s also important to feed your gut and inner health!
If our gut is inflamed and not functioning properly because there’s too much bad bacteria, the good food we eat will not be getting through to create the right balance of hormones and nutrients which influence our skin’s health. You won’t be sleeping well, you might be constipated, bloated and you’re likely to be stressed and crave sugary, processed foods! All these things we usually attribute to different reasons, however the truth is that we can blame them all on our gut biome. If we want to change things in our life, then we need to keep our gut healthy!
Poor gut health can lead to acne, breakouts, inflamed skin, psoriasis and eczema; these are tell tale signs that your gut health is not as good as it could be. So we need to feed our good bacteria and allow them to take over from the bad bacteria– and just like that we have clearer skin!
It feels better, looks better and is healthier!

Everyone is talking about “guts” lately. Specifically, gut health. Your gut is your gastrointestinal tract: starting where the food goes in and ending where the waste comes out. The stomach and your small and large intestines are all part of it too, which are made up of good and bad bacteria. A healthy gut will have more good bacteria than bad, have normal contractions when food is consumed, and will be able to digest the food that comes through; taking the vitamins and minerals that it needs and sending the rest off to be disposed of.

Your gut flora is a term used to describe the trillions of bacteria that live in your gut and your digestive system. A healthy gut will be made of around 85% good bacteria and around 15% bad. To begin with, we want them there. We’re not going to treat them with antibiotics – in fact, antibiotics can kill the baddies and the goodies! It’s thought they begin their colonisation in an individual’s gut at birth, though more recent research is suggesting they begin their presence in the womb. Research is saying they’re so good that we need to reconsider them as being the true brain of the body!

About
Put simply, you could say all of your bacteria creates a balance throughout the body. They influence so many aspects of a person’s health and wellbeing that it’s safe to say we cannot survive without them! They affect our mood, our immune system, skin and weight. Not only do they help make several vitamins, they influence the making of many hormones, assist in our sleep patterns and clear mindedness and to top it off, they produce 95% of our serotonin – keeping us happy and sane! But if the bad bacteria take precedence, you may have loose, unformed stools, or constipation, maybe your faeces are foul smelling, you feel gassy and foggy headed – these are some of the most common signs that your gut flora is out of whack.
