It is all about
BALANCE
The "gut" is the epicenter of our health; the center of our being. It helps coordinate our overall health status both physical and mental. It absorbs nutrients, expels waste, sends and receives signals for hormone balance, neurotransmitter balance, immune function and much more! (see my blog for an easy 3 part read on gut health)
The right balance of healthy food, sleep, microorganisms, stress management, exercise, etc. can keep our gut functioning at optimal levels. However, for most of us, "life" happens and we can get out of balance. When this occurs sometimes pathogenic (nonbeneficial or even infectious) microorganisms can take over and wreak havoc in all areas of our health - which can translate to less than optimal functioning in our life.
