How to Improve Your Gut Health
There are many great reasons for you to want a healthy gut, such as a better immune system, better digestion, increased cognitive function and so on. Most of this can be improved by watching what you eat, avoiding certain foods and adapting your lifestyle to increase your chances of having a healthy gut and, in turn, better health overall.
Here are some points to think about:
A healthier diet.
Likely the first one you will think of when approaching better gut health, but still an important one. Adding more fibre to your diet, such as whole grains, vegetables, fruits and legumes (peas, chickpeas, lentils and beans), will help. It is also a good idea to cut out as many processed foods as possible, as these aren’t generally conducive to a healthy gut.
Some fermented foods, such as sauerkraut and kefir (which is a fermented food or drink, usually made from milk), are made with live cultures and are extremely beneficial for a healthier gut. And in case you’re wondering where to buy kefir, you can find it in various supermarkets, stocking popular brands including Biotiful Kefir.
Stay hydrated.
Drinking plenty of water is healthy in a variety of ways, one of which is keeping a healthy gut. It helps with digestion, nutrient absorption and maintaining an optimal body temperature. Most people will benefit from drinking about four to six cups of water a day.
Physical exercise.
Increased physical exercise is also beneficial in many different ways, including improved mental health, better fitness levels and gut health. Studies show that consistent exercise routines will benefit the microbiota in the gut (microbiota being the microorganisms, such as bacteria, in the gut).
Reducing stress.
You might have noticed in times of great stress that you may experience stomachaches, constipation and other similar symptoms. This, of course, affects our gut more negatively. So it is important to also consider finding ways to manage and reduce the stress in your life, especially that which is most in your control. For that which isn’t in your control, there are various ways to manage it, such as physical exercise, mindful exercises, meditation, breathing techniques and making sure you get plenty of sleep.
Get plenty of sleep!
A well-rested body will be less prone to stress, which reduces the risk of digestive problems and disturbances (to name one example). Plenty of sleep and rest will also give you more energy, in turn making it easier to participate in your chosen physical activities. All of these points are interlinked: keeping stress levels down and getting plenty of exercise should improve your ability to sleep; in turn, plenty of sleep helps those two areas as well.
Final thoughts.
There is no one solution to improving your gut health; all of the above points need to be in action as they all play a role in supporting a healthy gut. Think of it as a recipe where the most important ingredients can’t be left out or switched out. You should take all of the points into consideration in order to maintain the best health in your gut.

Healing from stomach pain, bloating, swelling, low...

Healing from stomach pain, bloating, swelling, low stomach acid, diverticulitis
I POST THIS IN THE HOPES THAT IF SOMEONE ELSE IS EXPERIENCING THIS, THAT IT WILL HELP YOU!
I have been suffering from excruciating stomach pain the past few months, prior to that, I had clues something was going on but not sure what. I am not a doctor person, they have never, ever really helped me, so I take my health in to my own hands and do a ton of research! I knew I was experiencing diverticulitis, I could feel "wounds" in 3 different places anytime I ate. So much so, it almost sent me to the ER 3 times. Sever pain in the upper chest and lower back area. I actually thought I had colon cancer. I also had symptoms of itchy feet and hands, especially at night, I learned this is the liver working but it is compromised. Also had what seemed like sever allergies after I ate, just a drippy nose, this is also a sign of low stomach acid.
If I could say 1 thing to EVERYONE, it is to protect your gut lining, morning and night! I was having severe diarrhea the end of December, the whole month of January, every single day! It started to escalate when I drank harataki water. I think this irritated my gut lining even more, without me realizing it. It was horrifying to be some where and have to run to the bathroom. And don't get me started on nuts, rush to the bathroom instantly. What helped immediately when I took it in Jan, was grass fed gelatin!! I took it once and my stomach calmed down and actually had a normal bowel movement! This helps protect and cover the lining of your stomach, as well as the papaya enzymes.
It is something I take regularly NOW & the papaya enzymes without fail! But I still could tell something was missing ... I came across a guy on tiktok that said, gut issues probably stem from low stomach acid. I was told yers prior from a holistic dr that I did have low stomach acid, but took capsules and never did again. I think this is what slowly, but surely got me to all of the pain, diverticulitis, bloating, swelling, severe fatigue that I was experiencing. Your body shuts down bc you have a missing component of stomach acid!! Your whole body is trying help to break down the food leaving you lifeless after you eat!! Then leaves your stomach and whole body bloated + swollen bc food is still in your system, just fermenting! Hence, all the burping, farting.
Dr Clarke BETAINE HCL capsules have been a LIFE CHANGER!
Low stomach acid makes you more susceptible to parasites, weight gain, bloating, bc after years of little to no stomach acid, the parasites. bacteria eat at your gut lining making tiny little holes in it, shooting everything into your system!
Sorry if this sounds like a jumbled mess but I pray whoever needs this will get the same relief I am getting. I now walk 10,000 steps a day, the BETAINE HCL are a Godsend bc I don't get bloated when I eat anymore!! HALLELUJAH!!!!! My calves and ankles don't get swollen either. I am seeing major changes in my body now that I am giving it what it needs. The allergy symptoms have all but disappeared too! I no longer have to blow my nose 20 times a day or all night.
My next step is to clear out the liver of liver stones ... this is where the low stomach acid stems from. If the liver is overloaded, everything else in the body pays for it. Hopefully, once I start doing these regularly and heal the liver, I can wean myself off the betaine HCL. Until then, I will continue to take them! I am so happy and hope this helps someone out there that's suffering.Advertisement

Cholesterol for Tight Junctions in Leaky Gut

Cholesterol for Tight Junctions in Leaky Gut
Phospholipids and Cholesterol are good for many things including healthy gut. Eggs are a good source for both. Lecithin is a great idea too.
The structure of biological membranes typically includes several types of molecules in addition to the phospholipids comprising the bilayer. A particularly important example in animal cells is cholesterol, which helps strengthen the bilayer and decrease its permeability. Cholesterol also helps regulate the activity of certain integral membrane proteins.

MK4 is involved in making proper Lipid Bi-layers and Ion Channels in our cells.

Moringa powder too alkalizing??
Has anyone tried Moringa powder for deficiencies? I tried one tablespoon and it gave me indigestion. I had reflux at night where food came up but it wasn't entirely acidic. Did it further alkalize my already low acid stomach? -
