Have you wondered what Leaky Gut is and how you can go about preventing it? If so listen in as @glamgirlbikini coaches @chrisnicole_ifbbpro and @amyehinger fill you in. Leaky gut occurs when the tight junctions between cells of your intestinal lining are compromised and can no longer protect you from foreign invaders, leading to inflammation and hormonal disruption. Some of the Key Takeways from the podcast:
-
Your female hormones, your gut and your micro biome are intimately connected
-
A healthy gut is essential for removing excess estrogen and avoid hormone imbalances
-
Top causes of leaky gut include antibiotics, BC pills, chronic stress, high sugar diets, and low fiber diets
-
Gut imbalance may be a cause for weight gain
-
L-glutamine https://1stphorm.com/products/glutamine/?a_aid=glamgirlbikini , omega 3shttps://1stphorm.com/products/digestive-enzymes/?a_aid=glamgirlbikini , NAC, zinc, vit D, slippery elm, chamomile, marshmallow root, probiotics, and digestive enzymes are helpful supplements to heal the gut
-
Staying well hydrated throughout the day. Be conscious, however, of your intake at mealtime: Drinking while you eat can dilute the enzymes needed to break down your food.
-
Considering intermittent fasting — a shortened eating window gives your digestive tract a break and may help you feel better.
-
Eating a solid, nutrient-dense diet that’s high in produce and focuses on fiber.
Lifestyle Strategies to support your gut:
-
Eat in a relaxed environment
-
Practice mindful Eating. Be present with your food
-
Avoid drinking lots of fluids with your meals
-
