Adaptogens are pretty cool. There’s a few big ones in a new thing I just started. 🙏🏼
I didn’t know much about this one:
✨ Schisandra: just ONE ingredient in Uplift ✨
(ashwaganda is another! I knew about that one)

I didn’t know this but natural adaptogens work better the longer you take them — Schisandra is one of them! It’s been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for *thousands of years* because it benefits nearly every organ system within the body. Just a few:

✨ helps regulate cortisol and mental stress 🎉
✨ helps you produce more glutathione (your master antioxidant!) 🎉
✨ helps detoxify the body 💩
✨ supports and cleans the liver ❣️
✨ helps to improve digestion 🎯
✨ anti-aging benefit for the skin 💕
✨ helps prevent and fight adrenal fatigue 👏
✨ helps to improve heart function ❤️
✨ helps repair negative effects of stress 🙏🏼
✨ works in multiple “meridians” within the body to restore internal balance and health 💯
✨ benefits and results increase the longer you take it!😅

“The term “Gut health” describes the function and balance of bacteria of the many parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Ideally, organs such as the esophagus, stomach and intestines all work together to allow us to eat and digest food without discomfort. But that's not the case for many people…💓

🖤Why should we pay attention to our gut health?

All food is ultimately broken down in the gut to a simple form that can enter the bloodstream and be delivered as nutrients throughout our bodies. This is only possible with a healthy digestive system. A healthy gut contains healthy bacteria and immune cells that ward off infectious agents like bacteria, viruses and fungi. A healthy gut also communicates with the brain through nerves and hormones, which helps maintain general health and well-being.

🖤What are the signs of gut health problems?

Everyone at some point experiences digestive problems such as abdominal pain, bloating, loose stools, constipation, heartburn, nausea or vomiting. When symptoms persist, it may be a sign of an underlying problem that needs medical attention.

🖤What else should we know about gut health?

👉Food choices are common causes of heartburn, bloating and constipation. If you experience these symptoms, start using a food diary to see if there are links between your symptoms and certain foods. Avoid fried foods and consume alcohol and caffeine in moderation, as they are not healthy in the long run. If you keep having gastrointestinal problems despite making wise food choices, consult your doctor.

👉Adequate sleep is essential for gut health. It is not uncommon for people with disturbed sleep to suffer from nausea, bloating, constipation and other digestive concerns.

👉Regular exercise is known to reduce stress levels and help maintain a healthy weight, which can have positive effects on gut health.

👉Antibiotics can wipe out both bad and good germs in the gut. Avoid taking antibiotics for conditions such as common colds or sore throats. These illnesses are usually due to viral infections that do not respond to antibiotics anyway.

🖤What can we do to support our gut?

Taking a good quality probiotic can make a big difference. The friendly bacteria are essential for a happy gut and play a pretty big role in good health overall. One upping the probiotic by taking a TRE-biotic can be a total game changer! Ours has 3-in-1 Microbiome Matrix™ technology featuring three key factors: GOS prebiotic helps beneficial gut bacteria populate faster and with greater density; NeuroFlora™ probiotic complex provides 3 scientifically selected strains of acid-resistant bacteria shown to support microbiome diversity, immune health and brain and cognitive health; and EpiCor® GI+, a whole food fermentate, supports a healthy gut lining for optimal micronutrient synthesis and overall wellbeing.💓

Also, choosing to supplement with Collagen can have huge benefits to the intestinal wall and stomach. The ultimate goal of improving gut health is to heal and seal the gut. By healing the gut lining, impermeability is restored, food is digested the way it’s meant to be and the lining is sealed. The body is no longer working overtime to curb the inflammation and your immune system gets a well-deserved break. Collagen is an essential component for healing and sealing the gut and is now recognized as one of the key supplements for gut health. Besides providing the building blocks for new collagen in the body, the amino acids delivered by hydrolyzed collagen support gut health. They also help to maintain the integrity, growth and function of the intestine.💓
