Our digestive system provides nutrients for all the other intricate systems in the body such as the respiratory, muscular, cardiovascular, reproductive, lymphatic, skeletal, endocrine, and nervous systems. Therefore, a weak digestive tract that is not capable of breaking down and absorbing valuable vitamins and minerals can lead to and/or exacerbate serious degenerative diseases.
To ensure that vital nutrients are getting to where they need to go, it is critical that our intestinal tract is strong and resistant. An intestinal lining that is weak and damaged can lead to a leaky gut (which allows partially digested food particles into the bloodstream) and malabsorption of essential vitamins and minerals. These issues can be linked to diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, celiac, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s, food allergies and several others.
Due to its significant impact on the rest of the body our protocols will typically start with looking at digestion and making the necessary repairs to help you strive toward better health.
