Gut Health

For those who are at a healthy weight — but still struggling with digestion.

Gut health refers to the balance and function of bacteria and other microorganisms in the digestive tract, especially in the intestines. A healthy gut not only helps with digestion and nutrient absorption but also plays a crucial role in immune function, hormone regulation, and even mental health. The gut is often called the "second brain" because of its strong connection to mood and overall well-being.

Maintaining good gut health is important because an imbalance in gut bacteria (called dysbiosis) can lead to issues like bloating, constipation, diarrhea, food intolerances, inflammation, and weakened immunity. Over time, poor gut health may contribute to chronic conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), autoimmune diseases, and even anxiety or depression.

Several factors affect gut health, including diet, hydration, stress levels, sleep quality, antibiotic use, and physical activity. Eating a fiber-rich diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, fermented foods (like yogurt or dahi), and prebiotics supports a diverse and healthy gut microbiome. Avoiding highly processed foods and managing stress are also key to maintaining gut balance.

frequently asked questions

Your gut microbes feed on what you eat. Diets high in fiber, fruits, vegetables, and fermented foods promote good bacteria, while processed foods and too much sugar can harm them.

Yes! Stress impacts digestion and the balance of gut bacteria. Chronic stress can worsen symptoms like bloating, cramps, or changes in bowel habits.

Poor sleep disrupts gut bacteria balance and can worsen digestive issues. Good sleep supports a healthy gut-brain connection and helps regulate digestion.

Yes. Regular physical activity supports gut motility (movement of food through the digestive system) and encourages a more diverse microbiome.

With consistent changes like improving diet and lifestyle, many people notice gut health improvements in a few days to a few weeks. Long-term balance may take months.
