We often don't think about our gut health, but there's a gut-brain connection that affects our physical health. Dr. Shawn Weiss joins Suzanne to talk about improving gut health.

Dr. Shawn says, "There's such a gut-brain connection, it all affects your physical health. Your gut has its own ecosystem, called the gut microbiome. Think about this: there's 100 trillion types of bacteria, viruses, fungi, all living in your gut, in this microbiome. And what's funny, there are types of bacteria and organisms that are found nowhere else in the world, only in the human gut. It's getting a lot of attention, I'm so glad now that people are paying attention to it. When I practice my root-cause health, I'm digging deeper into the gut and the root causes of the illnesses and the symptoms we're having. We want to know what is affecting your gut... Poor nutrition, processed food, is going to certainly cause a lot of inflammation in your gut lining. Your junctions in your gut line are supposed to be nice and tight. They're not supposed to be permeable. And so when you're eating a lot of processed food, or things with a lot of toxic things, the junctions will separate and it's called "leaky gut" Well, what happens with that? That stuff gets out into your bloodstream."

Dr. Shawn adds, "I do a 60 days to optimal health program. You're going to have a form to fill out. I'm doing sleep questionnaire, stress questionnaire, and we do gut testing. That's how we start the whole thing. We want to lead you to optimal health by making small changes in all of those areas of optimal wellness. And I consider those stress, sleep, nutrition, gut health, emotional health, and exercise."
