What You'll Learn
Your Digestive System, Microbes, and the Microbiome
An imbalanced microbiome can lead to weight gain, inflammation, excessive hunger, high blood pressure, obesity, and more. Understanding what the microbiome is, how it functions, and how it impacts your digestive system as a whole are the building blocks of this course. We’ll provide you with an in-depth overview of these systems and how both good and bad bacteria make up the body’s microbiome.
The Gut-Brain Connection
The gut is your “second brain” because it’s in constant communication with the brain. The two are so intimately connected that your digestive issues can be the cause or result of anxiety, stress, and depression. You’ll dive deeper into how the gut-brain axis impacts your hormones, nervous system, inflammation, and mental health – and why you need to listen to your body when you have reoccurring issues, including, gas, bloating, constipation, acne, fatigue, and more.
Food Intolerances and Conditions of the Gut
There’s a lot of talk these days about allergies and intolerances, but do you actually know the difference between them? We’ll dive into ways food can irritate the gut – from basic food allergies to more serious conditions, like leaky gut, Crohn’s, celiac, IBS, and SIBO. You’ll also learn to recognize symptoms, warning signs, and when it’s time to work alongside healthcare practitioners to guide your clients (or yourself!) to better health.
Supporting Your Gut with Diet
From macro- and micronutrients to pre- and probiotics to supplements and fermented foods, diet is a major component of optimal gut health; you are what you eat. We'll explore foods that promote good bacteria and help contribute to a diverse microbiome. You’ll also understand the importance of bio-individuality in making food recommendations for those who have specific intolerances or conditions.
Supporting Your Gut with Lifestyle
When we think of things that are harmful to the gut, we tend to focus on the foods we eat. But did you know that one of the biggest killers of healthy gut bacteria is stress? You’ll understand how stress impacts your cortisol levels and digestive system and wreaks havoc on your body. We’ll also cover a variety of everyday toxins, including antibiotic use and pollution, and the healing tools you need to reduce inflammation and balance your gut.
