HH339: What Is Going On Inside Your Gut?

Welcome back to another edition of health hack. I am Melissa Deally your host. And once again I am continuing sharing with you the access that you have to add home lab testing. And if you have any gut issues going on discomfort after eating, bloating, gas, etc. There's heartburn. There's so many people out there today struggling with gut health issues. This lab test is so beneficial to you to discover what is going on. So this lab test will show you whether you have any candida overgrowth, bacterial overgrowth, whether there's any mold or fungus in your gut, it also tells us what's going on with neurotransmitter function because of that gut brain connection. And it's really important to know that because our feel good hormones, serotonin and dopamine are made in our gut. And if our gut isn't functioning at its best, it can't do that. And then we don't feel our best. And we might go to the doctor and let them know that we're feeling depressed, and we end up being put on some kind of medication. Whereas we could look at what's going on with the health of your gut and restore the health of your gut so that your body can naturally start producing normal levels, and optimal levels of serotonin and dopamine again, this lab test also shows us your levels of key vitamins, so that we know whether you're deficient and need to be supporting your body more. And we will burn through our vitamins and our minerals when we are under stress. And because of our nutrient depleted soil systems these days, it's very hard to get excess vitamins from our food alone, but knowing what your vitamin levels are, and if they're deficient, being able to supplement with the exact vitamins your body needs, that's really key information to have. This lab test also shows us the how your detox pathways are functioning, and whether they're functioning well and you're able to detox the toxins that are getting into your body or if we need to be supporting the body again with some nutrients to help those detox pathways. And it also shows us your mitochondrial function and your mitochondria are your energy powerhouses in the body. And if they aren't functioning well then it's very difficult for you to feel like you have good energy. So so much information packed into one really key lab test. And all you have to do is a first morning urine sample, freeze it and then send it off FedEx to the lab, you get everything you need in the kit, including the FedEx bag, it couldn't be easier and it gives you so much wonderful information. So if you'd like to know what's going on with your gut, remember that all health or all disease even starts in the gut. That's what Hippocrates said 1000s of years ago, and we know that's true today. So when we optimize the health of our gut, our overall health can be optimized as well.
