Today we continue our gut health series, focusing on the second underlying cause of gut issues: imbalances in our microbiome!!

Our microbiome is the ecosystem of the trillions of bacteria that live in our gut. When the balance of bacteria is off, we can experience a plethora of gut issues like IBS, anxiety, indigestion, weight issues, immune function and so much more. Our gut is at the root of so much that happens within our bodies, which is why when there's imbalances within the gut that go unchecked, we can see it leading to bigger imbalances and dis-ease later on.

Our gut is home to 80% of our immune system, meaning that it has a major effect on our overall health, energy, and vitality. A healthy, balanced gut is crucial for our wellness, which is why today we're learning the most common causes of imbalance within our gut microbiome, how we can notice when it's imbalanced, and what we can do to bring balance to our gut, short and long term.
