Eczema skin rashes stem from an issue much deeper than the skin itself. Steroid creams and topical treatments only mask your symptom. In order to heal your skin you must heal your gut. This is true for all skin rashes and acne.

Are you or your child struggling with oral thrush, vaginal yeast infections, bloating, fatigue, fungal infections, rashes or unstable moods? If you answer yes to two or more of these it is very likely you have a candida yeast overgrowth.

If you or your child suffer from food allergies, intolerances or sensitivities that don't genetically run in your family - this is an indication that the gut bacteria is significantly imbalanced. This imbalance causes inflammation which blurs the communication pathway from the gut to the brain making it so the body incorrectly respond to different foods at different times.

It takes two years for the gut to restore itself just from one course of antibiotics. And this one course increases your chance of a major depressive episode by 24% in the next 12 months. If you now go back to your doctor within that 12 month period to get a second course, your risk of major depression goes up to 54%. Not to mention your skin, digestive and immune health.

Needless to say, it is really important to heal your gut after taking antibiotics.

It is estimated that 80% of people in the United States have parasites. This is problematic because these invaders feed on our food, causing malabsorption and nutrient deficiencies. This can lead to various symptoms such as fatigue, headaches and weakened immunity. Not only that, but the presence of parasites can trigger inflammation and damage the intestinal lining, negatively impacting your gut health. .

Contrary to what your doctor will mostly likely tell you, the answer to digestive issues isn’t a laxative or a fiber supplement. These are bandaids that don’t heal your body. The body experiences diarrhea or constipation when something is off inside. That something is most often an imbalance in the gut bacteria.

Many hormones and neurotransmitters stem from your gut so when there is an imbalance, your body is not able to produce optimal amounts. This means you don’t get the happy chemicals to your brain. Which results in depression, anxiety, anger and unstable moods. The gut brain axis is really powerful and if your gut is imbalanced that communication pathway becomes blurry making it hard to focus.

During utero a babies gut is sterile. They get their first exposure to bacteria when they pass through the birth canal. The mothers microbiome becomes the babies. The unfortunate part about this is that many mothers unknowingly have a gut imbalance that they pass onto their child during birth. Or if the baby is born via cesarean section, their first exposure is environmental. An imbalance leads to symptoms like bloating and screaming for hours on end.

Leaky gut is a condition where the lining of your intestine becomes more permeable than it should be. Normally, this lining acts as a barrier, controlling what gets absorbed into your bloodstream. But with leaky gut, this barrier becomes compromised, allowing toxins, undigested food particles, and bacteria to pass into your bloodstream. If you suffer from chronic health issues like autoimmune diseases, allergies or asthma it is likely you have leaky gut.
