Have you ever felt a “gut feeling” about something? It turns out that there’s a lot more to it than just a feeling!

The gut is a complex network of organs that plays a critical role in overall health and well-being. From digestion to immunity, the gut plays an integral part in our function.

Recent research has revealed that the gut microbiome — the makeup of bacteria and other microorganisms in the stomach and intestines — can profoundly impact our health, from increasing inflammation to affecting our emotional state.

Fortunately, there are natural ways to heal the gut and improve our health. So let’s discuss the importance of gut health and explore the various natural methods to heal the gut and improve overall health.
