Your microbiome

Resolve gut issues
Your gut is alive with a microbiome and its health or composition impacts your immune system and overall health.
Unfortunately, fungal and bacterial overgrowth of pathogenic species can occur following excessive stress, poor diet or following antibiotic therapy. This can lead to "leaky" gut epithelium which initiates food sensitivities and autoimmune disorders.

Microbiome Dysbiosis Explained
The surface of your gut
In a well maintained microbiome, symbiosis the beneficial bacteria (green) reside on the smooth and continuous mucus layer (light blue) which protects the gut lumen and villi. However, following severe stress or multiple antibiotic treatments, the composition of the microbiome can change, with pathogenic bacteria (red) and/or overgrowth of yeast (orange circles). These microbes release chemicals (red and orange dots) into the local environment that disrupt the mucus layer, and create small holes in the gut lining. Through these holes, the chemicals from the microbes as well as partially digested food particles can pass through into the systemic circulation. These foreign food particles can create an immune response which can lead to food sensitivities and possibly autoimmune conditions.
Symptoms of candida dysbiosis
Skin itching, sugar cravings, irritability, fatigue, bloating, brain fog, depression, thrush (white coating on tongue), muscle aches or weakness and elevated oxalate levels.
Symptoms of bacterial overgrowth
Bloating, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain and gas.
