Why a Digestive Cleanse and Nutritional Supplements?
Your gut is literally your second brain, created from the identical tissue as your brain during gestation, and contains larger amounts of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is associated with mood control. It's important to understand that your gut bacteria are an active and integrated part of your body, and as such are heavily dependent on your diet, vulnerable to your lifestyle and disrupted by pharmaceuticals.
Recent research indicates that; physical and psychological stressors, environmental toxins, medications, processed foods, sugars and more increase inflammation in the gut. This inflammation will interfere with the signals transmitted to the brain.
Depression is often found alongside gastrointestinal inflammations and autoimmune diseases as well as with cardiovascular diseases, neuro-degenerative diseases, type 2-diabetes and cancer.
A gentle Digestive Cleanse will tackle gut inflammation and eliminate many of the toxins residing there allowing the good bacteria to flourish and aid in the increased production of serotonin and the uptake of much needed whole food nutrients … naturally. This helps to retrain the body's systems filters to function normally once again.
Whole Food Nutrition is Extremely Important.
An increasing number of clinical studies have shown that treating gastrointestinal inflammations with probiotics, vitamin B, D and omega 3 fatty acids, through attenuating pro inflammatory stimuli to brain, may also improve depression symptoms and quality of life.
According to a study (2015/8) run by the Mental Health Center of Kayseri Education and Research Hospital, obesity ran at a higher than normal rate among depressed patients, dementia sufferers and caregivers and essential vitamin / mineral / fatty acid levels were much lower as well as the ability to uptake nutrients.
Depression, anxiety, stress all take a physical toll on the body. The first order is to help bring body systems back into balance.
