Are Your Gut Issues and Anxiety Connected?

It’s a what comes first, the chicken or the egg situation…

Poor Digesiton: Lead to low nutrient absorption and deficiencies of vitamins and minerals. A deficiency of Magnesium, B vitamins (especially B6, folate, B12), Vitamin D, Zinc, Iron, and amino acids have been linked to higher rates of anxiety. Plus, gut issues like leaky gut, dysbiosis, pathogenic overgrowths, etc, contribute to higher rates of anxiety.

States of Anxiety: Keep you stuck in fight-or-flight - shutting off digestion, making it difficult for your body to absorb the nutrients you eat. This state promotes inflammation in the GI tract and feeds unhealthy bacteria, leading to GI problems like leaky gut and more.

In all honestly, it doesn’t matter which came first because when we do root-cause focused healing, we’re addressing both issues simultaneously.

• Reducing stress & regulating the nervous system (lowering anxiety)

• Eating nutrient-rich meals

• Supporting optimal digestion

• Supporting a healthy gut microbiome
