The 3 E’s and 4 R’s For Gut Health

Posted by Dan Hammer //

Our goal is to give you a road for for improving your gut health. One that is fairly easy to follow. We say “fairly easy” because we acknowledge that any change can be a challenge.

Hopefully over the last 4 posts on gut health it’s clear that your microbiome is critical to your health. A healthy and diverse microbiome usually leads to better health and wellness. It also improves your ability to manage your weight.

In our Mircobiome Research eBook we talked about addressing the 3 E’s which are:

Eliminate Dysbiosis

Eliminate Leaky Gut

Eliminate Inflammation

It’s these 3 conditions that you have to address. If you address them properly, then you’ll experience a tremendous shift in your overall health. Read More →

Prebiotics and Probiotics to Recolonize Your Gut

For most people the combined use of prebiotics and probiotics to recolonize their gut is a new concept or method. Yet this combination of prebiotics and probiotics is exactly what is needed.

When you examine the research in this area, you’ll see a heavy emphasis on what are called Probiotics.

Probiotics are good bacteria that will help you recolonize your gut flora with the types of bacteria that promote good health.

You can obtain them from supplements, food, or both.

Fermented foods are best because helpful bacteria are used to ferment or breakdown the food into more easily digested components. The top four foods in this category would be: Read More →

What Does It Mean to Have a Leaky Gut

While the medical community does not recognize a leaky gut as a major contributing factor to all sorts of health issues, there is a growing body of science showing how a leaky gut, or what is called intestinal permeability, is wreaking havoc on people’s health.

This health concern is not new.

In fact, Hippocrates recognized it when he stated,

“All Disease Begins In The Gut.”

Ideally, your intestine is designed to be a very selective barrier to everything you consume. It does this by creating what are known as “tight junctions.” As you can see in the below image created by Dr. Vincent Pedre for Happy Gut, these tight junctions are loosened so that undigested food particles, toxins, and pathogens can enter your blood stream.

Preventing Toxins Caused By Microbiome Dysbiosis

Microbiome dysbiosis usually produces toxins that result in a leaky gut and inflammation of your intestinal cavity. To prevent these toxins from entering into your blood stream and causing additional health issues we use the term “purify the gut microbiome.”

This means returning this microbial community back to a diverse collection of beneficial bacteria that will protect the intestinal cavity, as well as aid in the proper digestion and elimination of the foods you consume.

There are two basic approaches to eliminating the toxins caused by microbiome dysbiosis:

Using pharmaceutical drugs and antibiotics

the use of natural nutrients, prebiotics, and probiotics.

Why Your Microbiome is Key to Good Health

In 2001 the term Microbiome was coined by a researcher named Joshua Lederberg. The term applies to the 100 trillion microbial cells that each person carries on and in their body.

Whether you believe in evolution or Creation there is a symbiotic relationship between these microbial cells and human cells. A symbiotic relationship that either leads to good health or poor health.

In fact when you look in the mirror what you see is your human expression of your human cells. However, if you had the eyes of a powerful microscope you would see a world of microbial cells that outnumbered your human cells by a factor of 10.

Which has lead researchers in the area of the microbiome to use the phrase “We Are Only 10% Human!”

Why is this important?

Because the makeup of your micriobiome significantly, if not entirely, impacts your health and wellness. To the point where every major disease and illness today has a link back to your microbiome.

Formula for Wellness

The future of health care from the nutrition industry is amazing and addresses what I call the formula for wellness. The following image will help you understand this formula:

By optimizing your health, while minimizing your potential for disease, you can maximize your wellness.

Now as I look at this formula the question that comes to my mind is this:

Is there one area within the body that can do both?
