The World Health Organization who states that, “Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease.” So, if you think about it, modern life is hard on all these aspects of your health — including, gut health.

The entire digestive tract is affected by emotional stress, the foods you eat, food intolerances, medication, irritants, toxins, antibiotics, disturbances in your sleep, past emotional traumas, your spirituality, your ability to relax, your beliefs, and your biomes.

Hence, it’s not just food or exercise that impact your health.
