If You Want To Improve Your Food Sensitivities and Gut Discomfort, You Should: Believe in the reality that you do not have to constantly live in pain Learn about how your body, mind, and consciousness are connected Use result-oriented solutions, like digestive enzymes, that can bring you results quickly   Hormones and gut health aren't often discussed in the same sentence, but the truth is that your hormone issues could very well stem from an imbalance in your gut microbiome. Digestive enzymes can not only help heal your symptoms; they can implement the fundamentals of gut health that we all need to function properly.   Why You Should Love Digestive Enzymes as Much as They Love You Steven Wright knows about the struggles of gut health first hand. After spending almost half a million dollars overcoming his own health challenges, he decided to take matters into his own hands and graduated from the Kalish Functional Medicine Institute. Since then, he has founded healthygut.com, a service dedicated to helping people alleviate their symptoms through the transformative power of digestive enzymes.   The Importance of Loving Your Microbiome What you eat every day is shaping your microbiome without you even realizing it. Your microbiome can only flourish if it is provided the necessary tools for it to grow. Digestive enzymes work within a capsule to ensure that you don't have to rely on the food you ate that day in order to uplevel your digestive functioning.  If you are able to take full advantage of what you are consuming, your cells will have a better ability to break down the foods you are eating and alleviate the symptoms that are causing your challenges.   The Fundamentals Are What Matters If you are struggling with not being able to eat what you want or live life the way that makes you comfortable due to your symptoms, your microbiome could be the catalyst. By understanding the daily support that your gut needs in order to function optimally, you can get back to the fundamentals of gut health.  Your enzymes control basically everything that is happening in your body, so why not support them in the best way possible in order to improve your overall daily health? If you are struggling with symptoms that you just can't get to the bottom of, digestive enzymes could be your path to easing your discomfort.
