Why is gut health important?
Eat Whatever You Want!
They say different foods affect different parts of the body! But there's one body part the food definitely passes through. i.e. The gut.
The human gut is more complex than previously thought and has a huge impact on whole-body health. A healthy gut contributes to a strong immune system, heart health, brain health, improved mood, healthy sleep, and effective digestion, and it may help prevent some cancers and autoimmune diseases.
This newsletter will tell you more interesting facts about the same! Additionally, we have a surprise gift for you in this newsletter. Watch out ;)
4 signs of an unhealthy gut!

Why should we pay attention to our gut health?
All food is ultimately broken down in the gut to a simple form that can enter the bloodstream and be delivered as nutrients throughout our bodies. This is only possible with a healthy digestive system. A healthy gut also communicates with the brain through nerves and hormones, which helps maintain general health and well-being
Do this: Eating a healthy and diverse diet, getting good sleep
Don't do this: Not doing the aforementioned

*The microbiome is the genetic material of all the microbes - bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses. Trillions of these microbes exist mainly in your intestines and on your skin. Most of the microbes in your intestines are found in a “pocket” of your large intestine called the cecum, and they are referred to as the gut microbiome
