Gut Health
Gut health isn’t just about feeling comfortable after meals. It is central to feeling energetic, maintaining a positive mood and supporting your immune system.
When the gut is balanced, it digests food efficiently, absorbs nutrients and eliminates toxins. A healthy gut supports energy, clearer skin, and stable moods. However, stress, poor diet, certain medications and environmental factors can disrupt the delicate balance of gut bacteria and lining. This imbalance can lead to issues like bloating, irregularity, and overall discomfort.
With so many day-to-day factors influencing gut health, it’s important to understand how simple habits can make a difference.
Tips for maintaining gut health
Good practices include:
staying hydrated
managing stress through movement and relaxation
being mindful of any medications that disrupt gut flora
eating fibre-rich foods like fruits, vegetables and legumes
prioritising probiotic-rich foods like yoghurt, kefir and kimchi
maintaining a balanced diet.
Forming these habits nurtures the good bacteria in the gut, helping to regulate immunity, stabilise hormones, and even influence emotional wellbeing. Prioritising gut care helps to maintain long-term health and vitality.
