Understand the symptoms of an unhealthy gut and how to repair it naturally
Your gut does more than just digest food—it’s central to your immunity, mood, energy, and overall health. When your gut is out of balance, your body sends warning signs. Let’s break down five key indicators that your gut might need attention.
Chronic digestive problems like bloating, gas, diarrhea, and constipation are hallmark signs of gut imbalance. An overgrowth of harmful bacteria, low digestive enzymes, or inflammation can disrupt normal digestion.
Suddenly reacting poorly to certain foods (like dairy, gluten, or eggs)? This may stem from a damaged gut lining that allows particles to escape into the bloodstream, triggering immune responses.
The gut-brain axis means your cognitive clarity and energy are closely tied to gut health. Leaky gut and poor nutrient absorption can lead to low B12, magnesium, and other deficiencies that drain your energy.
Acne, eczema, and psoriasis often reflect internal inflammation and microbiome imbalance. A healthy gut helps regulate inflammation and skin barrier function.
Increasing research links gut permeability to autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s, rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus. Healing your gut can ease these responses.
