You may think that signs of an unhealthy gut may be totally obvious. Ya know gas, bloating, indigestion and upset stomach or even constipation. This is not always the case.

  7. Cravings for sugar or carbs
  8. Arthritis or joint pain

  10. Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, celiac disease or Crohn’s

 

 

Any of these ring a bell? What about the not so obvious signs?

Let’s go into that a bit more here. If you have an unhealthy gut, things like toxins, microbes, undigested food particles, and more can escape from your intestines and travel throughout your body via your bloodstream. SERIOUSLY!! They are leaking into your body causing way more than a little gas or upset stomach. While you may be treating that upset stomach with some over the counter meds, there may be a deeper root cause that needs to be addressed
