- Why is digestive health important?
Our digestive system is constantly working, even when we are asleep. Good digestive health is vital for both our physical and mental well-being.
It’s important to know that 90 per cent of serotonin receptors live in the gut. That’s why we believe if we can help our patients achieve a healthy gut, they are more likely to enjoy a healthy mind.
Serotonin is essential for your mental health and sense of well-being, and it’s also crucial for proper gut function. When our digestive health isn’t as good as it should be, our body tries to tell us in different ways.

The most common signs and symptoms when digestive system in in disharmony:

- Food Intolerances – dairy, gluten and wheat
- Food Intolerances – amines, salicylates and glutamates.

These symptoms and conditions are the body’s way of telling us that an underlying cause or concern needs treatment.
