Gut health seems to be quite a hot topic these days. I think it is because we are finally realizing how much of an impact our gut has on our overall health and wellness. Bad gut bacteria not only contribute to digestive problems. It can also cause mental health problems like stress and anxiety, lead to poor focus and brain fog, and many other issues.

Today I’m going to be talking about signs of digestive problems. Some are pretty common and others I didn’t know was related until I learned about it myself. So first let me ask you what kinds of digestive problems have you had in the past or have now? Comment below.

5 Signs of Digestive Problems

#1 Gut or Stomach Discomfort

So think about how you felt after eating breakfast or lunch today. Did you feel tired? Did you have heartburn? What about bloating? Running to the bathroom shortly after eating? These are pretty classic signs that you are having digestive problems. All of these signs point to bacteria in your gut not being balanced properly.

#2 Food Cravings

The next common sign of having digestive problems is having specific food cravings.
While these can also be from other conditions, you should talk to your doctor about your gut health if you have an intense craving for foods that are sweet. Sweets and sugar tend
to be a big sign of an imbalance of your gut health and gut bacteria. Have you had antibiotics recently? It rids your gut of both bad and good bacteria, so you might have an
increase in sugar cravings due to the good bacteria being out of balance in your gut. My mom was just in the hospital last week and was pumped full of antibiotics. She is having all kinds of digestive problems right now.

#3 Your Breath Smells

When most people notice that someone has bad breath, their first reaction might be to
pull back and avoid the subject, but telling someone that they have bad breath could be
life-changing for them because bad breath is often a sign of much more important
issues. Many people who have bad breath simply have digestive problems that they
haven’t become aware of yet. Paying close attention to when your breath smells can
also give you an indication of what’s triggering it specifically.

#4 You’re Tired After Meals

Do you feel energized and lively after meals, or tired and lethargic? How you feel after a
dinner can say a lot about the state of your digestive health. Sometimes it can be as
simple as needing to have more fiber in your diet, but one major issue that people have
is a clogged and plaque-filled large intestine. These buildups of waste can prevent your
body from absorbing the vital nutrients that it needs to stay healthy and alive. This could
also become more serious when the weight of trapped material begins to cause internal
injury to your intestinal lining. How you feel after you eat is a good indication of digestive problems.

#5 Adult Skin Issues

So, a pimple suddenly rises on your cheek. Then a few days later another, and another.
Is this just adult acne? Well, it’s possible, but it’s a fairly common thing for people with
digestive problems to have skin issues. The bacteria that often causes acne only comes about due to a heavy presence of the good bacteria that fights to keep you body healthy and your skin free of bacterial colonies. If you are sure to get enough good bacteria to fight the bad, then your skin should naturally clear up a bit. Many skin issues begin in the gut such as Rosacea, and Eczema.

Why do we have so many digestive problems? 

See here’s the thing we are bombarded with chemicals every day even if we are trying to keep ourselves healthy by eating all organic, non-processed foods, and purifying our water supply. There are chemicals in your home, your work, and especially places like the grocery store. The world is full of toxins so there is no way to completely avoid them. All we can do is minimize our exposure and help our body eliminate what it is exposed to.

What can we do about it? 

How old are you? You have probably been alive at least 30 years; me over 40. You probably have quite a build up of these toxins in your body. This slows everything down and hinders elimination. A way you can help your body is to have an all-natural herbal detox. This is something we all should do a few times per year to keep our body systems running smoothly.

I don’t mean you need to Fast for 7 days, drink only liquids or consume a minimum amount of calories. You won’t have to eliminate certain food groups or feel deprived at all. There is no need in starving. You can still live a normal life, but feel lighter, and have more energy.

I have a Detox program that I run live only a few times a year. It is called Fresh Start Detox. You don’t have to change your diet at all. Obviously, the cleaner, less processed the food you are eating the better the results you will get, but you don’t have to wait for everything to be perfect either.

It is better to do this detox without changing any of your bad habits than to wait for this magical time where the stars align and you have everything ready. Never is everything going to be perfect.

This detox is for anyone whether you are a beginner to detoxes or you have done them in the past. All it requires is you drink a natural fiber green drink, and a couple plant sourced capsules that will help your body detoxify and get rid of the gunk. You do this twice a day and that is it you can go on with your regular life!
