ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Food sensitivities start in the gut

Your gut (starting with the mouth and ending at the opposite end) is instrumental when it comes to food allergies and sensitivities. In altered gut function, the probability of allergies or skin disorders is more likely to occur. Understanding this relationship can help to eliminate the challenges of food and skin sensitivities. 

In your gut you have “good” bacteria, yeasts and other microbes that are essential to the health of the whole body — this is referred to as your “gut microbiota.” You also have “bad” bacteria and microbes. Most of these are naturally in your gut, and belong there (with some exceptions), and as long as they are low enough in numbers compared to the “good guys,” all is well. When the “bad guys” dominate, or are not well controlled by the “good guys,” disease occurs. This condition is called “dysbiosis.”
