Why is our GUT health SO important?

You’ve probably heard that 70-80% of your immunity comes from your gut which means if there’s an imbalance in your gut microflora chances are your overall immunity will suffer.
I recently attended a training day with Biocare on Gut adaptation with Alessandro Ferretti.

What did I learn?

  1. How we eat is sometimes more important than what we eat
  2. Eat food as close to its natural source as possible
  3. Gut tissue cannot regenerate while it's constantly digesting food Leave 3-3.5 hours from your main meal at night until sleeping
  4. Go back to basics - remove refined sugar, eat mindfully
  5. Your Gut is like a muscle which needs training and is the first line of detoxification
  6. Deficiencies can occur if you exclude whole food groups
  7. Leave 10 hours from dinner until breakfast to give your gut a break and a chance to repair

How to put these learnings into practise!

Think about how you eat next time you sit down, are you fully present and focussed on the flavours and textures of your food? Are you distracted by the TV, your phone or are you paying attention to chewing slowly? This is especially important with children who love to eat as quickly as they can as their minds are already planning their next adventure. You are what you eat is true but should also read you are HOW you eat which will give you many clues as to what could be going on inside your gut.

STOP, CHEW and ENJOY
