DISEASE STARTS IN YOUR GUT

A gut program I really have great results with in my medical practice is from the scientific team from Designs For Health. I studied under Dr. Raphael Kellman, MD regarding Obesity, Autoimmune Disease and Depressioin. The far reach of the microbiology of your gut is very critical to your health.

It is time for a shift in our perception of bacteria from pathogen and enemy to our most important health ally! Essentially its the greatest turnaround in science  in 150 years. The gut bacteria are critical to lifespan and healthspan.  The scientific literature on the microbiome has recently been sky rocketing with more than 90% of roughly 4,000 articles indexed by PubMed on the topic being published within the past 5 years! 

There is NO SUCH THING as a good or bad microbes, we are designed to need both. The question is "how do you care for your gut?" The bacteria all work together to perform specialized functions.  Antibiotic pharmaceuticals can help or hurt the gut depending on what is going on with each individual. GMO's have been implicated as something that can hurt the bacteria in the gut as well as taking certain medications such as antacids.

Here is a product I recommend to start patients on a healthy GI Program. 
Digestzymes are digestive enzymes with betaine HCL to support optimal digestion of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. The use of digestzymes before meals may be helpful when patients experience gas and bloating after eating, constipation, or a feeling or fullness after eating only a small quantity of food.
