#56 Gut Health - Caroline Peyton

"Many of us are beginning to learn today just how important it is to know what is going on in our gut. And that gut health is important to our overall health." Caroline Peyton

 

Caroline Peyton has an holistic approach to health and wellbeing. In this episode we start out chatting about how our gut is invisible and we tend to ignore it unless there is a problem. However, making sure that what goes into our gut, how it survives and thrives in there or doesn't and the impact of that on our lives - from moods to stress to ill health is fascinating. Caroline's enthusiasm helps us visualise what is going on and she broadens it out to cover so many areas, including:

• If you are a tea and/or coffee drinker are you aware of the impact on your body?
• How much hydrating fluid do you consume daily? 
• If you have a desk based job how much do you move around and exercise? 
• How many pieces of fruit and vegetables do you consume daily?
• How do you know if you have an intolerance or an allergy?

And we keep returning to the fact that our bodies are amazing - how it does its best to cope, but sometimes if we push it a little bit too far, it will start to try and tell us that it's not so happy. We have to tune in and listen to our bodies.
