Our gut plays a critical role in many of our body’s functions and our overall health.  While its primary role is to digest food and absorb nutrients, the microbiome of the gut also impacts immunity, heart health and metabolism, as well as being the epicentre of our gut-brain axis - which affects mood, cognition and energy.

Poor gut health can lead to unpleasant and painful symptoms and trying to manage bowel urgency, wind and pain can also cause worry and embarrassment.

When our gut microbiome is out of balance, it can also affect our mental acuity.  Brain fog, low mood and tiredness are all symptoms that something might be out of balance in our gut.  Doctors are now confident that digestive health is integral for our overall health and well being.
