Get Your Gut Health Together
3 Great Reasons to Get Your Gut Health Together
by Audretta Hall
I received a crash course in gut health about 15 years ago when I lost my third close relative to a complication of the digestive system. The coroner actually spoke to the family at the funeral. He spoke words that changed my health focus (and life) FOREVER! “The Death of your body begins in your colon,” he said. And his words rang in my ears like the bells in the movie “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”.
I left that funeral and went straight to researching. I needed to know HOW to get my gut health in order. I figured if death started there, I’d better take care of it before IT took me out too! It didn’t take a detective to put the clues together. The people with the same eating habits, with the same genetics, were dying from the same diseases!
I had been battling the disease of obesity for most of my life. I’d lose 40 pounds then gain 50 pounds back! I tried every ‘diet’ imaginable. The only thing I was consistently losing was my MIND trying to stay on those restrictive programs.
When I started concentrating on saving MY LIFE, by getting my gut health together, I lost (and kept off!) 100 lbs. Who knew that focusing on my digestive tract would be the key to opening the door to weight loss success?
So here are three great reasons to get your gut health in order: 1. It is one of the Easiest Ways to correct Several Health Issues OBESITY, Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Acid Reflux and several forms of Cancer are all associated with a digestive system that is not working properly. Get it ‘moving’ correctly and you take a few steps closer to getting your total health in order.
2. The Digestive tract Heals Itself! The lining of your intestine replaces itself every 15 to 20 days. I just had to go a few weeks limiting the amount of dairy, alcohol, bread, meats and sweets that I took in because these are some items that got my system ‘off track’.
3. It lets you know when you got it RIGHT (and Wrong!) A few signs that your system is in order: You ‘go’ within 30 minutes of eating. When there is some input, there should be output. Your Output FLOATS. Your Output Comes out like toothpaste out of a tube.
A few signs that your system needs attention: Constipation, bloating, painful eliminations, loose stool. Some more serious signs: Off color (dark black, white, yellow, RED etc.), not eliminating for days at a time and excessive elimination.
I have more energy and look better now in my 50s than I did in my 20s!
