Is your gut health driving you crazy?

Just a quick search in Pubmed reveals thousands of studies – which look into how poor digestion can trigger disease – including mental and emotional problems. Many experts call the gut our ‘second brain’ – due to its role in determining what happens to our health. In other words, our entire outlook on life depends on the health of our gut.

With over 100 trillion bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in our microflora – the physical matter of our digestive system – out number our cells by 10 to 1 and play a HUGE role in our physical, mental and emotional condition.

So, who should listen to this program? Well, I guess, only those people interested in protecting or improving their health. If you have trouble concentration at work, suffer with chronic disease (of any kind) or just feel sluggish during the day – even after sleeping for hours and hours – then, you should pay close attention to what we’re about to reveal in this program.

What are the greatest threats to digestive health?

In a nutshell, stress, infections and heavy metals pollute the gut and can cause a wide variety of serious health problems. If you’re experiencing brain fog, bloating, gas, heartburn or any kind of nutritional deficiency – then, you should immediately work on improving digestive function.

During this program, Dr. DiMartino outlines the best ways to identify digestive problems – including the 5 best medical tests to perform, before deciding on a treatment plan. In addition, you’ll discover the “5 R’s” to help heal the gut. This is a systematic approach to cleaning out the body and regaining a strong immune system – which reduces your risk of disease.

Editor’s note:  During this event, Dr. DiMartino talks about the five tests that every person should consider when trying to figure out the source of their digestive problems, including:

  • The Heidelberg test
  • Breath test
