Relief for your Gut
Did you know that over 50 percent of Australians experience digestive problems? Get the inside scoop on improving your gut health – for good.
The gut microbiome is a community of trillions of microorganisms, such as microbes, bacteria, viruses and fungi, which live in your intestinal tract. These microorganisms are necessary for every function that is critical to your health and wellbeing. They help with digestion, destroy dangerous bacteria and regulate the immune system and mental health. However, if the microbiome is put out of balance, for example, through illness, use of certain medications and inadequate fibre-rich foods, then it will have a negative effect on your health. Eating foods rich in fibre, especially prebiotic fibre, balances your gut microbiome by increasing production of ‘good’ bacteria and starving the ‘bad’ bacteria. Plant-based foods, such as carob, legumes, beans and fermented foods like kefir and yoghurt, are a rich source of fibre and prebiotics. Unpleasant and even painful symptoms of indigestion, gas and bloating can seriously affect your wellbeing by disturbing your metabolism, energy, mood and sleep patterns. Fortunately, Nature provides powerful remedies which have targeted benefits for gut health. Discover how two unique
ingredients can work together to detoxify and support your digestive system, restore gut function and efficiency, optimise your microbiome and improve your mental, physical and emotional health. Double Action – Detox and Support 1 Detoxification: Activated coconut charcoal is known as ‘Nature’s Gas Sponge’. It can effectively neutralise and remove many causes of gas and bloating. Activated charcoal can inactivate and remove germs, unhealthy bacteria, toxins, allergens and environmental chemicals which can accumulate in the body. This action removes the heavy burden on the digestive organs of having to constantly deal with these toxins and allows them to perform optimally. 2 Microbiome Support: Carob is high in fibre, which promotes a healthy gut, helps prevent constipation and supports regular bowel movements. Tannins in carob help improve gastrointestinal health reducing diarrhoea, heartburn and vomiting. The fibre in carob also contributes to a feeling of fullness, curbing excessive appetite and reducing overeating.
Go Vita loves … Zeb Health Yummy Gut TM a 100 percent natural and Australian-made gut health blend, containing the detoxifying power of activated coconut charcoal and the efficient prebiotic goodness of organic Australian carob powder.
