Why is gut health important?

The importance of gut health is highlighted by the fact that there is a broad list of digestive symptoms that lead people to seek medical attention and that these complaints are quite prevalent in our community. Nausea, heartburn, vomiting, constipation, food intolerance, stomach pain and cramps, weight loss, loss of appetite, and blood in the stool are some of the symptoms in this category. Most often, these symptoms point to innocuous illnesses that may have an impact on the quality of life but are not life threateniung.
In many ways, good health depends on a healthy GI tract. Numerous findings from clinical research make it abundantly evident that the gut's role is by no means limited to the digestion of food and subsequent absorption of nutrients and liquids. The GI tract helps to maintain health by ensuring the digestion and absorption of nutrients, defending the host against several pathogens, and sending signals from the periphery to the brain.

A healthy gut has the right balance of bacteria and other microbes in your digestive tract. You can naturally improve your gut health by consuming certain foods and adopting healthy lifestyle habits.
Eating food rich in fibre, and packed with prebiotics, can assist in gut-boosting abilities. Similarly, regular exercise can encourage a surge in various healthy bacteria in the gut. Products like NutriKane R help optimise diet management.
