You could be eating the healthiest food in the world but if your digestive system isn't working properly - it doesn't count!
One of the most important processes in the body is how it breaks down food and absorbs nutrients. Those little nutrients feed more than 75 trillion cells in the body to help keep you healthy all day.
If there are any issues within the digestive tract, the body will talk to you via symptoms such as:
-
Heartburn, indigestion or acid reflux
-
Pain in the abdomen or feeling bloated after eating
-
Constipation or diarrhoea
-
Excess flatulence or belching
-
Different coloured or smelly stools
-
Undigested food particles in bowel motions
-
Low levels of iron, folic acid or vitamin B12 test results
-
Food allergies or Intolerance (gluten, dairy, sugar)
-
Cravings or nutrient deficiencies (zinc, magnesium)
Nutrition intervention plays a key role in the successful management of gastrointestinal disease. Certain foods have the potential to improve overal intestinal health, stimulate intestinal healing and decrease intestinal inflammation.
We can design a health protocol for you based on your situation to minimise any gastrointestinal symptoms you may be experiencing and to support optimal digestion and absorption of nutrients.
