There are many different nutrients you can take to improve and optimise your health. The difficulty is often knowing where to start. Probiotics and prebiotics are important for your gut health, magnesium can help you sleep better, turmeric can help reduce inflammation, zinc if you have poor skin etc

Having a healthy gut is so much more than what you are eating, it’s a whole way of living that moulds and shapes your microbiome. Your microbiome is not only modulated by factors such as diet and antibiotics use, infection and disease, but also physical activity.

Exercise is linked to not only the increase in the number of beneficial bacteria but also to increased microbial diversity. The more active you are, the more good guys you will have in your gut as well as a greater variety. Email Inspiration, Gut Brain, Beneficial Bacteria, Physical Activity

There are various factors which can affect zinc bioavailability including:
· Excess sweating
· Ageing
· Casein in milk and calcium
· Iron and high amounts of copper
· High cadmium levels
· Phytates in cereals, corn and rice

If you’re experiencing a number of these deficiency signs, why not increase your intake of zinc-rich foods such as lentils and chickpeas, cashews, walnuts and sesame seeds, spinach, mushrooms and quinoa.

Dehydration

How many cups of water have you drunk today?

Did you know drinking enough water is vital for both our gut health and our mental health? - Water is necessary for maintaining serotonin levels - Dehydration causes constipation. - When we don’t have enough water to flush waste from the digestive tract, toxins recirculate into the bloodstream and throughout the body. - Dehydration creates a gut environment that is favorable for the proliferation of bad bacteria For most people, 2 liters/8 cups of water is a good daily goal.

What is something you are going to work this week?

Being healthy is not just about eating or not eating certain things. Health is holistic so it’s important to also address things like sleep, hydration, social interaction and mental wellbeing. Improving your health is all about taking small steps in the right direction. It would be too overwhelming to change everything at once!
