“Hippocrates himself said, ‘all disease begins in the gut'.
The gut is a powerhouse within the body — it converts food into energy, delivers valuable nutrients into the bloodstream, manages waste, and protects against disease.
In fact, the gut is an intrinsic link to bettering our overall health and wellness. “Each of us has significant control over our own gut health, but often people do not take the time to consider it until they’re not feeling well.”
While it may be easy to overlook, taking proactive steps to promote a healthy gut is one of the best tools we have for preventing disease and optimizing our larger sense of well-being.
What does the gut do?
“The gut” refers to the entire gastrointestinal tract. It starts at the mouth, travels through the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine/colon, and ends at the a**l ca**l/rectum.
“The role of the gut is extensive, it participates in many functions, but its main responsibility is digesting food. Digestion is both a mechanical and chemical process.”
Approximately 70 percent of the immune system is ruled by the gut."
