The gut is the only organ system that can carry out functions without the need of the brain’s impulses. In fact, it has the power to act as its own brain earning the title as our “second brain.” Did you know that our gut is also home to: -Its own nervous system called the enteric nervous system. -95% of the body’s happy hormone, serotonin. -70% of all the immune cells within the body. The decline in gut health in the United States is costing people their lives due its important roles as a first line of defense, second brain, and emotional center within our bodies. Afterall, Hippocrates was right when he said, “All disease begins in the gut.” Unfortunately, the majority of Americans are suffering with some sort of gut-related issue and are not being treated appropriately. The current medical model has previously failed to recognize the impact gut health has on the entire body’s wellbeing. This epidemic can be reversed, however, with functional medicine principles, comprehensive diagnostic testing, and individualized care.
