Your gut is your biggest elimination organ, it helps you to rid your body of toxins and waste. When it is not functioning optimally it affects your hormonal system, your immune system, your circulation system, your ability to detox & your mental health.
When your gut is happy (low inflammation, healthy lining, plenty of good bacteria, low dysbiosis) it helps your body to maintain balance within these systems, and allows you to get on with living life! No matter where you are on your health journey, looking after your digestive is number ONE. Once your digestion is functioning at its best, this creates the foundation for your body and all its systems to find balance.
