FORGOTTEN HEALTH

The “Forgotten Basic” of Gut Health:
“Be Good to Your Gut” pt. 2

blog-2

Welcome back!

Last time, we discussed my “secret weapon” for surviving suspect meals - Holiday or otherwise - with your Gut intact …

Check out “Be Good to Your Gut” pt. 1 to find out what it is. Why?

Because there’s nothing worse than a Leaky Gut!

Fortunately, there are some simple DIY ways to fix it ...

The problem is most people get distracted by all the “BSO’s” - aka “Bright Shiny Objects” along their health and wellness journeys.

I should know ...

I invested a ton of money in biohacking gadgets, tools, and treatments only to come full circle and realize one thing; they’re only a temporary fix.

They can never make up for a profound nutrient deficiency, for example, or a body wracked by toxins …

If your goal is feeling better and having more energy long-term, then you need to be consistent with BASIC stuff anyone can do day in and day out.

That’s why this time I want to focus on a “Forgotten Basic” no one talks about much …

Enzymes

I guess they’re not BSO enough, or maybe most folks think you can get enough from food.

While raw foods such as fruits and vegetables are a great source of enzymes, you’d have to eat a TON of them every day …

And your body NEEDS enzymes. Why?

Enzymes break down food into its smallest parts, and these molecules - like amino acids - are then used to build, repair, and maintain a healthy body.

It’s not just about eating a healthy diet; it’s about what your body can utilize from a healthy diet. And enzymes can’t do their job if your body doesn’t have enough in the first place …

The problem lies in the typical modern diet …

A traditional diet is usually served with enzymes at the beginning of the meal; Korean food has kimchi and Japanese has miso, for example.

If both are made the traditional way, the fermentation process produces enzymes.

Unfortunately, our modern diets consist of predominantly enzyme-deficient cooked and processed foods.

This is NOT good for your body. Here’s why …

In the absence of supplemental enzymes, the bulk of digestion ends up happening much further down your intestinal tract than it should, in your small intestine …

As a result, the chance of undigested food being absorbed into the body is greatly increased.

This triggers an immune response, causing systemic inflammation and a chain of other health problems …

Why Your Body Needs Enzymes:

1. Bloating

2. Gas

3. Food allergies and sensitivities

4. Skin conditions

5. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies

6. Intestinal flora imbalances

And that may not be the worst of it …

When undigested food reaches your colon, it feeds harmful bacteria and fungi, leading to more toxin production in your gut – one more reason you need supplemental enzymes.

But that’s still not all …here’s something else even more disturbing …

Without proper digestion, the nutrients you consume from the food you eat won’t be adequately absorbed; you can end up eating a “healthy diet” but still be malnourished.

With less and less nutrients in the food we grow every year, this is not something you want to risk …

blog-2a

Again, it’s what your body can utilize from a healthy diet that matters …

AND you also lose enzyme production in your body as you age, which is like adding insult to injury.

Now, I’ve been taking enzymes regularly for several months now, and it’s a subtle effect. But …

When it comes to gut health, subtle can be life changing …

I’ve found I don’t feel as “weighed down” after a meal, and things that used to irritate my gut don’t anymore …

If you’ve ever suffered from gut issues, you know that last one is a BIG deal!

Enzymes help with hard to digest foods like gluten, dairy, grains, nuts and seeds, sugars, beans, and broccoli.

Also, I’ve found taking enzymes before bed helps me sleep better because my digestion isn’t working as hard – again, quality of sleep vs. quantity. Remember?

So, if you end up eating too late at night, take extra enzymes before bed; they make a huge difference!

Like most of the DIY health tips we’ve talked about so far, they’re all-natural, easy to use, and super inexpensive …

I’ve tried them all, and Bioptomizers “Masszymes”are by far the strongest and the best value.

They also contain many more varieties of enzymes in the right proportions to each other and come in a bigger bottle - not a little one you have to replace all the time.

You should take at least 3 capsules right before eating and sometimes 3 after, so you go through a lot!

Remember, being healthy is a daily struggle, and eating the right kinds of foods AND drinking enough of the right kind of water may not be enough …

Even if you think you’re getting plenty of exercise and sleep, you may need to re-discover this one all-important “Forgotten Basic” to get your body back on track …

Especially if you overdid it with the comfort foods and festive cocktails this Holiday!

Once you do, you should sleep better and have more energy so you can start feeling your best all day, every day. After all …

A Healthy Gut = a Healthy You!

Tune in next time to discover the 2 things most people do every day that you should NEVER do to your gut … and how to avoid them …

‘Til Then … Be Good to Your Gut!

… and Have a Happy AND Healthy New Year!
