What is gut health?
Put simply, your gut refers to your intestines, which houses millions of tiny organisms (microbiomes) that are responsible for digesting the food you eat, nutrient absorption and getting rid of waste.
Your gut is the key to a healthy lifestyle, because with an unhealthy gut, the body struggles to get rid of wastes which can cause uncomfortable symptoms such as brain fog, diarrhea, constipation, gas and even joint pain!
How can you optimize your health:

Reduce your stress
One of the biggest things that can impact your gut health, which people don’t often think of is stress!

Stress hormones can also reshape the gut’s bacteria levels which leads to indigestion and constipation.
Here are a few foods that can manage stress:
Get moving:
Exercise can be very helpful for improving your gut health, it can reduce inflammation, decrease stress and help with digestion and absorption of nutrients.
