Healthology Gut-Fx Formula Powder

Gut health is the foundation of our overall health. Our digestive system allows us to break down and absorb nutrients (and energy) from food and eliminate toxins from the body. It is also the control centre of our immune system, and produces many of our hormones including serotonin and dopamine, which impact our mood, sleep, appetite and the nervous system.

The gut lining is like a neighbourhood made up of houses along a street. If we have a good neighbourhood, there are people living in each home who take care of their yards and go to work to contribute to society as a whole. Cars may drive down the street in this neighbourhood, but they only pull into driveways and enter homes if they’re invited guests.

The digestive tract is similar to a well-oiled machine. It is lined with individual cells that are home to beneficial gut bacteria. These bacteria help keep the gut lining healthy and perform important functions that benefit the body, including immune system and hormone functioning. The gut lining selectively absorbs nutrients from the contents passing through the digestive tract, and the rest is excreted from the body.

When the lining of our gut is inflamed, it can be compared to a bad neighborhood. The good neighbors move out and unwelcome guests move in, causing problems throughout the area. These guests don't take care of the properties or contribute positively to the community. Similarly, an unhealthy digestive system often has an overgrowth of unhealthy bacteria or yeast, which leads to inflammation in the gut lining. This condition is known as "leaky gut syndrome," which hinders the digestive tract from performing its normal functions, resulting in symptoms throughout the body.

Leaky gut can be caused by antibiotic use, eating inflammatory and processed foods, some medications, contracting traveller’s diarrhea, prolonged stress. These factors can negatively alter the gut flora, resulting in inflammation in the digestive tract.

When our digestive tract is inflamed, we may experience bloating, gas, heartburn, nausea, abdominal discomfort, constipation, diarrhea, or mucous in the stool. If we have prolonged issues with our digestion, it leads to whole-body symptoms, including fatigue, anxiety, depression, frequent cold and flu, and inflammatory issues like eczema, acne, joint pain, and autoimmune diseases like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
