Our Guide to Gut Health

Our guide to Gut Health

In most traditional medicine systems, including Chinese Traditional Medicine and Ayurveda, Indian herbal traditional medicine, the gut or gastrointestinal system is the star of the show. Mainstream medicine and research have now caught up to this ideas and we now know that gut health is directly related to overall health and many conditions can be linked back to digestive issues and inflammation in the gut. We also now understand the importance of a healthy gut microbiome and the wide-reaching effects of any imbalances here.

It is therefore important to support your gut through optimal nutrition as well as adding exceptional quality raw, organic supplements to support digestion, cell renewal in the digestive tract lining and microbiome balance.

The endocannabinoid system and your gut

The Endocannabinoid System is the overarching regulatory system that controls the gut-brain axis and protects the gut. The gut is packed full of cannabinoid receptors which play a particularly important role in the anti-inflammatory processes as well as gut motility. The ECS also interacts with your gut microbiome. Supporting the ECS is therefore beneficial in a wide range of gut issues such as IBS, inflammatory bowel diseases, chronic nausea and chronic abdominal pain.
