Discover How Modern Life is Making You Sick to Your Gut
One breath, one moment, one day at a time . . .
In an experiment in the 1990’s in Arizona, scientists created a tiny version of Earth inside a dome to learn how planet’s living things grow. They designed and created a Biodome or sanctuary in which life would thrive without the need of external resources, a closed ecosystem. This perfect environment meant that it had the perfect amount of radiation, so you didn’t have to use any sunscreen. The water was clean, so you didn’t need to filter the water. There were enough nutrients in the soil, so supplements were not needed. Once the trees and plants were planted, everything seemed to grow and grow and grow, as expected. The trees were very tall, but once they grew to a certain size they would crack and come crashing down.
WHY was this happening?
Scientists were baffled. They didn't understand why these trees were falling over in this closed system. When they came to realize that they had forgotten to take into account environmental components outside of the dome, such as wind, pollution, storms, and other factors.
WHY are these external factors so Important?
When tree fibers experience wind, they move back and forth, causing them to shiver and grow stronger with deeper roots in order to withstand the never-ending barrage of gusts for many years to come.
WHY does this matter?
The same principles apply to digestion. Our digestive system is designed to be like a biodome in that it is self-contained. Our environment internally, like that of the tree, must be strong enough to respond and flexible enough to adapt.
Say Goodbye to Gas & Bloating
Are you looking for more energy, better digestion, and sustainable weight loss?
Do you often experience gas or bloating after meals, regardless of what you eat?
Do your pants suddenly feel like they shrank two sizes?
Or do you experience frequent heartburn?
Have you tried removing inflammatory foods that contain gluten, sugar, dairy, alcohol, and processed foods, and take probiotics, but still feel gassy and bloated for no reason?
Our digestive process is very complicated and works in a north-to-south fashion, as it needs to follow a specific sequence for optimal digestion. For example, if your brain is not signaling your pancreas to produce the necessary enzymes to break down your food, you will experience gas and bloating.
The good news is . . . you do NOT have to continue suffering. What you need is to figure out which part of your digestive process needs support. At Advanced Wellness, our integrative health coaches take a holistic approach to health and wellness. We can help you find the food and lifestyle choices that best support you.
Are you tired of feeling bloated and uncomfortable? If yes, you are not alone.
Are you ready to feel better?
"All disease begins in the gut."
Hippocrates said this more than 2,000 years ago.
We’re only now understanding how right he was. Today, many researchers believe that the gut flora or intestinal microbiota and the gut barrier or intestinal permeability will determine the state of your health.
The Gut Flora: A healthy garden needs healthy soil. Our gut is similar because it is home to 100 trillion microorganisms. That’s 10 times more bacteria than all the human cells in the entire body, with over 400 known diverse bacterial species. In modern life there are several things that contribute to an unhealthy gut flora, including:
Medications - antibiotics, birth control pills, and NSAIDS (Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs like aspirin and ibuprofen)
Diets high in refined carbohydrates, sugar, and processed foods
Diets low in fermentable fibers
Dietary toxins, like wheat
Industrial seed oils
Chronic infections
Chronic stress
The Gut Barrier. The gut barrier is a gatekeeper deciding what gets in or stays out of the body. The gut is a hollow tube, like a garden hose, that starts in the mouth and passes through the esophagus, stomach, small intestines, and large intestines to the anus. When there are no holes or tears in the intestinal barrier or garden hose, it allows nutrients into the body and keeps out toxins, infections, viruses, etc. However, when the digestive tract has holes or tears in it (called Leaky Gut), chunks of undigested food, toxins, infections, and/or viruses are allowed to move into the body and can lead to food sensitivities and health challenges.
