Our bodies are hosts for microscopic living organisms: we can’t see them with the naked eye, but they are constantly replicating throughout our systems every day. There are over 100 trillion bacteria in our digestive system alone - more than the amount of stars in the Milky Way galaxy. These bacteria live in a constant fight for balance between ‘good’ and ‘bad’, and our everyday actions have a profound effect on who wins.
Restoring balance to our gut bacteria can be tricky, but the consequences of leaving imbalances to run rampant can wreak havoc on the whole digestive system - and the whole body. We rely heavily on ‘good’ bacteria to aid with our natural digestive processes, such as breaking down and absorbing nutrients, the motility of the food passing through, and keeping the levels of ‘bad’ bacteria in check. In this week for the Luminous Body podcast, we’ll be exploring how our environment and actions affect the balance of bacteria in our gut, and how we can use functional testing and holistic healthcare to identify and treat imbalances. We’ll be looking at a range of influences such as medications and diet to examine the link between bacteria and the perfect body host conditions. The workings of the bacteria in our gut are based on an incredibly complex system, that has widespread effects on not just the digestive processes but can extend as far as mental health disruption as well. We’ll also be discussing the prescription dietary protocols and supplementation that can aid in the healing and restoration of balance to the ‘good’ bacteria our gut requires to function healthily. This week shares another personal story, with Jaxson documenting his experience of suffering from SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) after multiple extensive transitioning surgeries, and the intense medication that followed. He shares his journey vulnerably and authentically and proudly shows how holistic healthcare helped to heal not just his gut, but his outlook on life for the better.
