Why Is Gut Health Important?
You know I’ve been on my own personal “figure it out” journey these past six months.. very imperfectly, I might add.
Research continues to emerge demonstrating that the bacteria in our gut plays an important, if
not VITAL, role in our physical and emotional well-being.
And we mean VITAL, because improving the health of your gut may help improve all the stuff
we struggle most with:
• Gas
• Bloating
• Irregular bowel movements
• Cramping
• Indigestion
• Weight loss
• Poor sleep quality
• Low energy
• The appearance of your skin
• Mood
• Reduce inflammation in your body….
Doesn’t this sound AMAZING? So if you’ve been meaning to get the lowdown on why gut health
is so important, and how you can get started on this journey for yourself, KEEP READING!
Why is Gut Health Important?
What is most commonly referred to as “the gut” is really the Gastrointestinal Tract- an organ
that includes both the stomach as well as your intestines. Also…I know. I know this all sounds
like health class but stick with me here. It will be worth it.
Let’s continue…the GI tract is responsible for taking in food and transporting it from the mouth
and into the stomach, digesting it in order to extract and absorb the energy and nutrients found
within, and removing the resulting waste from the body. You can see how important this is for
the overall health of your body: you need this energy from food in order to function properly, if
at all.
But the reason that gut health has been getting so much media coverage lately is that there
seems to be much, much more to the picture than originally thought.
Here’s the deal: research is beginning to reveal that the gut could impact aspects of your
health that seem to have nothing at all to do with your digestion, such as the function of your
immune system, your brain and heart health, your weight, your mood, your skin, your sleep
quality, and potentially even more.
This right here, is why there is soooo much buzz lately about gut health. We now know that
what we eat, the amount of stress we experience, how much sleep we get, etc., all contributes
to either us having a really healthy gut, or the opposite. And if we have the opposite, and we’re
experiencing less than desired health issues or body concerns, it MAY be connected to your gut.
There’s a lot to learn here when it comes to our gut, brain, and how it affects our overall health.
This is why Super Trainer Autumn Calabrese, has taken all of this confusing information, and
created The 4 Week Gut Protocol specifically to help all of us understand our gut, improve the
health of it, and possibly by connection, improve other conditions that plague us.
What is The 4 Week Gut Protocol?
The 4 Week Gut Protocol is a unique nutrition program designed to help promote overall gut
health, as well as isolate the most common foods and ingredients that can cause gastric
distress, and may be holding you back from achieving your health and fitness goals.
You don’t know if something such as a type of food, some stressor or the like, is affecting your
health, until you eliminate it from your daily life.
Autumn walks you through, step-by-step, exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to do it in
a way that isolates the potentially problematic foods and other lifestyle factors.
Over the course of 4 weeks, she’ll show you how to remove 7 characteristically troublesome
foods so you can slowly but effectively remove, replace, and rebalance.
