Ever wondered why your digestion seems to have a mind of its own? 👀⁠
⁠
It might not just be about what you’re eating… your nervous system could be driving your gut symptoms. When your body is stuck in “fight-or-flight,” digestion slows, sensitivity increases, and those frustrating gut issues start to show up. ⁠
⁠
👉 Some key signs your nervous system may be involved:⁠
〜You bloat after just a few bites, even with “safe” foods.⁠
〜 Symptoms flare during the workweek, but ease on weekends or holidays.⁠
〜 Sudden urge to run to the bathroom before big events.⁠
〜 Appetite changes, eating too much or too little under stress.⁠
〜 Digestion worsens when multitasking, scrolling, or rushing meals.⁠
⁠
Your gut and nervous system are deeply connected, supporting one means supporting the other. 💛⁠
⁠
A few simple tips from us here at Perth Health Collective:⁠
✨ Mindful eating.⁠
✨ Stress management.⁠
✨ Finding some calming practices to help your digestion thrive.⁠

Did my anxiety cause my gut issues… or did my gut issues cause my anxiety? 🤯⁠
⁠
The truth is, it can actually be both. Your gut and brain are constantly communicating through the gut-brain axis, and when one is out of balance, the other often follows.⁠
⁠
👉 Anxiety can disrupt digestion, alter gut motility, and shift your microbiome.⁠
⁠
👉 Gut issues like dysbiosis, inflammation, or leaky gut can influence mood, neurotransmitters, and even fuel anxious thoughts.⁠
This creates a vicious cycle where your gut and mind keep triggering each other.⁠
⁠
Supporting both your gut and your nervous system is key to breaking the loop. ⁠
⁠
Small daily steps like nourishing your microbiome with a balanced diet, prioritising rest, practising stress management, and mindful movement can make a big difference. ✨⁠

Your microbiome thrives when it’s exposed to a wide range of foods and healthy lifestyle habits. Here's our checklist for supporting a healthy gut diversity ⁠
⁠
1️⃣ Dietary fibre (25g+ daily): fibre fuels your good gut bugs, helping them produce short-chain fatty acids that reduce inflammation, support immunity, and even influence mood. For example oats, chia seeds, pears, broccoli.⁠
⁠
2️⃣ Prebiotic fibres: these special fibres selectively feed good bacteria, helping them thrive while crowding out less helpful microbes. For example, garlic, onion, asparagus, lentils, beans.⁠
⁠
3️⃣ Colourful plant foods: each colour brings unique antioxidants and phytonutrients. The more variety, the greater your microbial diversity, like cross-training for your gut. Foods like blueberries, spinach, turmeric, beetroot, green tea.⁠
⁠
4️⃣ Healthy fats: extra-virgin olive oil is packed with polyphenols that beneficial bacteria love, while also lowering inflammation. Swapping this in for saturated fats supports a healthier microbiome. One way to do this is to drizzle olive oil on salads, roasted veggies, or dips.⁠
⁠
5️⃣ Lifestyle habits: sleep and time outdoors regulate your circadian rhythm, reduce stress, and positively shape your gut environment. These non-food factors are just as important as diet. Aim for 7-8 hrs of quality sleep + 20–30 mins of daily sunshine or movement outside.⁠
⁠
Building gut diversity isn’t about quick fixes, it’s about consistent, daily choices that nourish your whole system.⁠

Your gut loves nature just as much as you do ⁠
⁠
Time spent outdoors reduces cortisol, activates your rest-and-digest response, and exposes you to beneficial environmental microbes that help diversify your gut microbiome.⁠
⁠
You don’t need to go off-grid to get the benefits; a few minutes of sunlight, a walk by the water, or eating your lunch outside can make a difference.⁠
⁠
Try this today: step outside for 10 minutes, take 3 slow breaths, and feel your body shift out of “go” mode and into “flow” mode.⁠
⁠
Who notices a difference when they head outdoors? ⁠
⁠
We know we do (and our kids as well!)

Before you buy another probiotic, make sure you’re doing these 3 things… ⁠
⁠
Probiotics can be helpful, but they’re not a quick fix. If your foundation isn’t in place, even the best supplement won’t deliver the results you’re hoping for 💊 ⁠
⁠
Here are 3 essential steps to support your gut before reaching for another bottle:⁠
1️⃣Eat a variety of plants: a diverse, plant-rich diet (30+ different types a week) fuels microbial diversity. The more variety you eat, the stronger and more balanced your gut ecosystem becomes.⁠
⁠
2️⃣ Prioritise lifestyle foundations: your gut feels everything - stress, poor sleep, lack of movement. By managing stress, moving daily, and resting well, you create the conditions your microbiome needs to flourish.⁠
⁠
3️⃣Feed your good bugs with prebiotics: think of prebiotics as fertiliser for your gut. They fuel beneficial microbes so they can protect your gut lining, support digestion, and strengthen your overall health.⁠
⁠
Probiotics work best when these foundations are already in place. Think of them as the cherry on top, not the whole cake 🎂⁠
⁠
Save this post as your reminder before you reach for probiotics.

So… you’ve been accidentally f*cking your gut 😅⁠
⁠
All jokes aside... we see these common mistakes day in and day out in clinic (heck, we are even guilty of making them sometimes) and they can seriously mess with your digestion, energy, hormones, and mood.⁠
⁠
The good news? Your gut is incredibly resilient, and with a few small changes, you can turn things around 👇⁠
⁠
🌱 Fuel it right → eat whole foods rich in fibre + prebiotics⁠
☕ Balance your caffeine → enjoy your coffee with food, not instead of it⁠
😴 Prioritise sleep → your microbes love 7–9 hours a night⁠
🧘 Manage stress → your gut + nervous system are best friends⁠
🚶 Move your body → gentle movement supports motility + microbial balance⁠
⁠
What’s one habit you’re working on improving this week? 👇

Is the carnivore diet all it makes out to be? 🔍⁠
⁠
You’ve probably seen the carnivore diet gaining traction, eating only meat and zero plant-based foods.⁠
⁠
What this extreme approach tends to do to your gut microbiome is one reason we approach it with caution.⁠
⁠
🥦 When you cut out fibres, phytonutrients, and prebiotic compounds (all found in plant foods), you’re removing the primary fuel for beneficial gut bacteria. ⁠
⁠
Without that nourishment, your microbiome loses diversity and resilience. That means fewer protective microbes, less production of key compounds that support gut lining health, and a potential increase in gut inflammation.⁠
⁠
Over time, this imbalance can lead to:⁠
❌ A weakened gut barrier⁠
❌ Increased systemic inflammation, since more substances may pass through the compromised gut wall⁠
❌ Reduced nutrient absorption, you might be eating more protein, but your body isn’t getting as much out of it.⁠
❌ A less adaptable microbiome, one that struggles to handle stressors like pathogens or dietary shifts⁠
⁠
Now, we aren’t saying meat has no place in your diet, but removing entire food groups is risky. If your gut is already sensitive, or if you struggle with digestion, this kind of diet shift could do more harm than good.⁠

Remember, gut health is highly individual. What works for one may not work for all, which is why it's important to work alongside a qualified healthcare practitioner who can tailor a diet that works best for you.
⁠
Your microbiome loves diversity, what’s your favourite gut-loving food?
