Gastrointestinal Health
Including Weight Management and Diet & Nutrition
As we age, our bodies natural processing cycle begins to decrease and slow - often we see signs of failure within the bodies ability to process and digest food. Digestive system problems such as heartburn, gas, bloating and constipation are a reflection of what’s occurring throughout your body. Your digestive system is a complex ecosystem of bacteria—gut health shifts are present when stomach acid, gut immunity and gastrointestinal flora change. A healthy gut is critical to maintaining little to no inflammation and managing a strong immune system.

Diet & Nutrition
Diet and gut health are very closely linked. Avoiding processed foods, high fat foods, and foods high in refined sugars are important for maintaining a healthy microbiome, as these foods can promote the growth of damaging bacteria. There are also foods you can eat that actively promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, contributing to your overall health.
Navigating the different nuances of diet and nutrition while also managing GI distress can often cause additional stress and be overwhelming. Our expertly trained staff provide counseling, testing, and structure to help you overcome these health concerns, identify any disease or illness, and implement changes that are sustainable.
