Why Healing Your Gut Matters.

The intestinal tract is the most important organ of the immune system. 80% of the lymph system is in the thin walls of the large intestines. When there is sluggishness in the intestinal tract, mucous membrane permeability slows down and the wrong intestinal flora is allowed to populate. This compromises the immune system. Symptoms include; loss of vitality, fatigue, depression, brain fog, aggressive behavior and vulnerability to infections.  The majority of allergies are assigned to the mal-functioning of the intestines. The intestine is the largest mucous membrane surface of humans. Most toxic materials which are absorbed, pass through the gastro-intestinal tract and/or are detoxified and excreted again.  The liver, kidney, lymph, lungs and skin surface follow secondarily, as organs of detoxification. Stress also, whether it is psychological or physical, affects the muscle tension of the intestine. 

The primary task of the gut microbiome AKA large intestine is, above all, the absorption of water, minerals and vitamins. A further function is, as described above, the elimination of toxic materials. In most cases, it is the intestinal bacteria, which line the whole large intestine like a fine film, that make the distinction of what the intestines should eliminate and what must be absorbed for balanced human performance. The large intestine is populated with several billion bacteria, which synthesize vitamins, e.g. biotin, folic acid, nicotine acid and vitamin K. In addition, they destroy disease-causing bacteria. The functional intestinal flora is irreplaceable for the absorption of vitally necessary amino acids, fatty acids and trace elements. This internal system regulates human behavior including calorie craving addiction to food. 

We are in a position to effectively fight “dysbiosis” ( a disturbance of the natural coexistence between humans and their intestinal bacterial flora). Through poor quality food, synthetic processing agents, lifestyle, environmental toxins and medical drugs especially antibiotics, and just aging itself, the equilibrium of the microbiota is disturbed. As the natural detoxification capacity of the body tissue is decreased it results in the extracellular tissue thickening and accumulation of protein in the lymph and thereby decreased oxygen supply for cells. Through practical consumption of living and precise cultures, we are able to gently recolonize the intestinal beneficial bacteria.

Inflammation of the intestinal lining can result in Immune deficiency syndrome.  It does not matter how much protein or prebiotics once consumes in a day if there is an imbalance of the beneficial microbes in an individual gut microbiome.
