Finally A Way To Test The Health of Your Microbiome and Gut

How can you improve your gut health without knowing what is going on in there? That is where a gut health test comes in. Dietitian Nutritionist Georgia Saler, is owner of Vitality Nutrition and Wellness Center in Linwood, NJ. She uses the lab results from a simple assessment to improve her client’s gut microbiome. This test assesses bacteria, yeast, viruses, and parasites in the gut microbiome, alongside relevant digestive and inflammatory markers. The panel measures hundreds of species of microbes at once, providing the most comprehensive digestive health test on the market. In this episode, we take a closer look at the importance of our gut or “second brain” and how this test can help you make changes that improve your life. If you're experiencing any of the common symptoms of leaky gut, microbiome imbalance, GI disorders, or abnormal digestion, you may benefit from knowing more about what is going on in your gut. Our gut contains trillions of microorganisms, both harmful and beneficial, known as our “gut microbiome.” Maintaining a healthy balance of microorganisms within our microbiome is crucial. Factors such as diet, exercise, medications, and even genetics can affect its composition and diversity, impacting various aspects of our health for better or worse. An imbalance of unhealthy and healthy microbes in the intestines may contribute to weight gain, high blood sugar, high cholesterol, and other disorders. https://vitalitynutritionandwellnesscenter.com/
