“All disease begins in the gut” - Hippocrates. Although it’s been over two thousand years since Hippocrates made this statement, it has never been as true as it is today. Our digestive tracts are passageways through one end of the body to the other that for the most part, provide a barrier between the outside world and our insides. It’s only through the digestive process involving specialized cells that the nutrients from food actually enter the body and any disruption in the health, function, or interaction of these cells with each other or their environment can significantly compromise not only the absorption of nutrients but also our overall health.
It is crucial to approach healing of the GI track holistically, both nutritionally and with chiropractic adjustments. Our bowels are full of nerve endings.

Misalignment will affect blood flow and that will also stress digestion. Our bodies are connected in two way manner, sending feedback messages through vast net of the nervous system. That is why it is important to treat GI problems from both sides respectively with alignment of the Atlas at chiropractors office and nutrition help of a health coach.
Today, stress, poor diets, toxic chemicals in our food, water, and environment, consumption of alcohol, and frequent use of antibiotics all compromise gut function, deplete our healthy supply of beneficial bacteria and provide opportunities for yeast strains, parasites to take over. In addition, a weakened intestinal wall can disrupt the normal transport and surveillance of foods from the gut into the body, can cause food sensitivities, and can trigger autoimmune reactions, leading to such things as rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, and eczema, hashimoto decease, brain inflammation, other disease and uncomfortable symptoms.
