If you want to regain your magnificent energy, feel good allover and achieve long term health then start by fully understand the "Gut Connections". The gut is no longer seen as an entity with the sole purpose of helping with all aspects of digestion. It’s also being considered as a key player in regulating inflammation (as we all know, inflammation is the common factor for virtually all diseases in the body) and immunity (responsible to prevent diseases!).

Multiple studies have now confirmed a dramatic link between the health of our microbiome and the strength of our immune system. Low-fiber diets, limited exposure to nature, and overzealous use of pharmaceuticals have messed up our microbiome, making many of us more susceptible to viruses than we naturally should be. But the good news is that, unlike our genes, our microbiome is constantly evolving, offering a pathway back to health for those who are suffering and proven protection for those who want to stay well.

Three Points to remember

How? Simply by taking a probiotic formula morning and night. I prefer to recommend taking those first thing in the morning in a glass of room temperature water and at night just before retiring (1 capsule A.M. and 1 caps at night).

Products recommended:  Eleven Elevated - When beginning a probiotic regimen, start with Eleven Elevated for 30 days then transition to Probiotic Eleven as a daily use probiotic. You may also use Eleven Elevated periodically to boost or strengthen your daily regimen or under times of increased stress.

A leaky gut is the pathway for how toxins enter the body through the GI tract and create all kinds of mayhem once they are in, sort of like party crashers who slip through security and proceed to make a mess of the venue.

Prebiotics are non-digestible carbohydrates which become a food source for probiotics, explains Mayo Clinic. Prebiotic substances induce the growth of bacteria and fungi which contribute to the well-being of the host, notes Wikipedia.

Foods that are a good source of prebiotics include
Oats, Ananas, Asparagus, Berries, Dandelion greens, Garlic, Leeks, Onions, Acacia gum (gum arabic), Jerusalem artichokes, (different from regular artichokes).
Cabbage (white or red) is an inexpensive and versatile prebiotic food that can be consumed as cabbage soup or as a salad.

But what if you do not like or are not vegetables friendly?
