Think of all the years you’ve been living on this planet. Now think of all the times you’ve eaten foods saturated with sugar, artificial sweeteners, trans fats, preservatives and pesticides. Think of the courses of antibiotics you were put on to kill the unhealthy bacteria in your system and think of all the chemicals, toxins and second-hand smoke you have inhaled in your life. Years of ingesting harmful substances andĀ antibiotics, thus wiping out the good bacteria along with the bad, have wreaked havoc on our gut health. The damage leads to compromised digestion, metabolism, muscle development and immunity and can even cause anxiety and cravings for sugar and/or alcohol. Gut health, which is often times the “missing link,” is important for everyoneā€”not just those with digestive issues or disease.

The old saying holds true: “Health begins in the gut.”Ā When it comes to evaluating your health or beginning a newĀ nutritionĀ program, the most critical (and often overlooked) starting point is the gut; where digestion, absorption and elimination all take place. It’s important to get this under control right off the bat as it plays such a vital role in metabolism, digestion and immunity.Ā Newborn babies get their very first healthy bacteria in the form of bifidobacteria from breast milk, but it’s important to make sure this isn’t the only time we are providing it to our body. Gut bacteria is essential to the digestive process and can boost our immune system by regulating the population of immune cells and preventing autoimmunity. A growing body of research is supporting the need for a greater focus on gut health. Gut bacteriaĀ plays a major role in metabolism and weightĀ by ensuring proper digestion, andĀ a 2011 study in the Proceedings of theĀ NationalĀ Academy of SciencesĀ suggests active intestinal bacteria is essential for normal development and decreased anxiety levels. Another study suggests gut health is essential for digestion and modifying gut bacteria may actually play a role in combating obesity.

Two key components that are beneficial for restoring, supporting and balancing gut health are probiotics (in the form of bifidobacteria) and glutamine. Probiotics work at restoring healthy gut bacteria that live in the colon.Ā I love howĀ this articleĀ puts it: “Your lifestyle, of course, becomes the lifestyle of all the critters that live within you, and itā€™s in our best interests to keep them all happy.” That’s what probiotics do.Ā Glutamine is an amino acid (building block of protein) which helps to rebuild and maintain the structural integrity of the thin lining of the digestive tract which is essential for healthy digestion, immune function and overall health. The combination of glutamine and probiotics promote healthy intestinal lining and proper digestion by rebuilding that intestinal lining and restoring the good bacteria.

So what can we do to restore gut health and promote a healthy environment for good bacteria to thrive?

  • Take a daily probiotic supplement, eitherĀ Pure Bifido Powder (great for kids and adults alike) or ProbioViveā„¢ capsules, in combination with Pure GlutaPowderā„¢ (or Pure Glutacapsā„¢).Ā These supplements work together to restore, balance and support gut health.
  • Include probiotics and fermented foods in your diet: Yogurt, Kefir (a dairy product), Miso (made from fermented soybeans), Kombucha (a fermented drink) and sauerkraut.
  • Reduce the amount of refined carbohydrates, sugar and processed foods you are putting into your body.
