Steps To Improve Your Microbiome

It's likely you've heard about your microbiome. You know, the good bugs that live on your skin, in your gut, lungs and yes, even in your vagina.

We're made up of 90% bacteria - they out number us by 10:1! Yep, there's more of them than cells in your body.  So it makes sense that we take good care of them and create an environment where these healthy bugs want to hang out in.

Besides, these microbes are the ones needed in strength to provide us with immune health, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial functions. The beneficial bacteria on your skin also promote a balanced, healthy complexion.

In your gut, your microbes specifically allow you to digest your foods, absorb your nutrients and allow adequate detoxification from toxins and wastes. Yes, they help move your poo through your colon and promote a regular and complete toilet stop.  They even play a role in the way you think, feel and sleep, through the influence they have on the production of your neurotransmitters, serotonin and melatonin. 

The balance of your microbes can also impact your baby, unborn baby and/or your one-day-baby's health. The health of your future generation begins with your preconception wellbeing and continues with the maternal nourishment you provide throughout pregnancy- and a big factor is the health of your microbiome. 

These are times when you particularly want to focus on good gut health, plus encourage a beautiful balance of bacteria throughout your body.

In this episode I share steps for you to improve your microbiome and I think some of them will shock you!
