You are not what you eat. You are what you digest, absorb, and eliminate. And when digestion breaks down, everything from your immune system to your brain function, hormones, skin, and energy levels begin to suffer.
Why Gut Health Is Ground Zero for Your Health
The gut is more than a digestive organ. It's an immune command center, a neurotransmitter factory, and a detoxification hub. In fact:
- 70–80% of your immune system lives in your gut.
- Your gut produces 90–95% of serotonin - a key neurotransmitter for mood, memory, and sleep.
- Gut bacteria regulate inflammation, metabolism, hormones, and even genetic expression.
Common Digestive Issues - Symptoms With a Story
Digestive dysfunction doesn't always show up as just gas or bloating. It can manifest in unexpected ways:
- Chronic fatigue and poor sleep
- Hormonal imbalances (PMS, low testosterone, thyroid dysfunction)
- Autoimmunity and joint pain
- Skin conditions (acne, rosacea, eczema)
- Mood disorders (anxiety, depression, irritability)
- Food sensitivities that keep multiplying
What's Really Going On in the Gut?
At Longevity Healthcare, we use advanced diagnostics to uncover what traditional medicine often overlooks:
- Leaky Gut Syndrome (Intestinal Permeability) – When the gut lining is damaged, toxins and undigested food particles enter the bloodstream, triggering inflammation and immune over-activation.
- Dysbiosis – An imbalance between beneficial and harmful microbes, often driven by antibiotics, stress, processed foods, and environmental toxins.
- Low Stomach Acid & Enzyme Deficiency – Often mistaken for "too much acid," low stomach acid impairs digestion and allows pathogens to thrive.
- SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) – A common root cause of bloating, IBS, and nutrient malabsorption.
- Candida Overgrowth – A fungal imbalance that can trigger sugar cravings, brain fog, and immune dysfunction.
- Undiagnosed Food Sensitivities – Gluten, dairy, soy, corn, and eggs may be fueling inflammation in ways you don't immediately recognize.
