Why gut health matters

Did you know 70% of the immune system exists in the gut? Our gut health impacts not only physical and psychological well-being but also our immune system. This is why it is so important to not overlook gut health.
– Kirby Sorenson, Moshy’s Lead Dietitian

You might be surprised to learn just how much your gut affects your overall health. It’s not just about avoiding bloating or discomfort (though that’s a huge bonus too).

Your gut affects:

•  Nutrient absorption
•  Immune system function
•  Mood and mental clarity via the gut-brain axis
• Skin health and inflammation
• Energy levels and sleep quality
  

What is the role of the gut-brain axis?

Our gut is deeply connected to our overall health, especially our brain, via the gut-brain axis. This bidirectional communication highway involves nerves, hormones, and immune pathways, creating a constant dialogue between your gut and your brain.

The trillions of microbes in your gut produce compounds, including neurotransmitters like serotonin, that significantly impact your mood and mental well-being. An imbalanced gut can send signals to the brain that contribute to anxiety and stress. Conversely, mental stress can affect gut health.

Nurturing your gut through diet and lifestyle can profoundly improve digestion, immunity, emotional balance, and overall vitality. It’s truly a two-way street impacting your entire well-being.

What’s inside the 28 Day Gut Health Meal Plan?

• Fibre-rich meals and snacks

Whether you’re dealing with bloating, low energy, or just want to feel better in your body, this plan gives you the tools to get there naturally.

Gut health Q&A with Kirby

We’ve asked Kirby to answer some of the most common gut health questions from mums. Here’s what she had to say:

“Good gut health” means having a balanced and diverse community of microorganisms in your digestive tract. These microbes help digest food, absorb nutrients, and support your overall well-being.

You likely have good gut health if you experience regular and comfortable bowel movements, minimal bloating or gas, and a strong immune system.

Signs your gut health could be improved include frequent digestive issues (like bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhoea), but also potentially less obvious symptoms like persistent fatigue, skin problems (like eczema), or even mood disturbances.

The gut microbiome refers to the trillions of microorganisms (including bacteria, fungi, and viruses) living primarily in your large intestine. It’s like a vast and complex inner ecosystem.Everyone is talking about it because research continues to uncover just how influential these microbes are on our overall health. They actively participate in digesting food, producing vitamins, training our immune system, influencing our brain function, and protecting us against harmful pathogens.

Not necessarily! While eating well is a great start, other factors like diversity of food, stress, sleep, medication, and even genetics can impact your gut microbiome.

For example, a diet lacking diversity or specific types of fibre might not fully support a thriving gut microbiome, even if it seems healthy on the surface.

Here’s Kirby’s expert advice:

• Eat a variety of plant-based foods: Aim for a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Different plants feed different types of beneficial gut bacteria, promoting a healthy and diverse microbiome. Studies have shown that people who include 30 or more types of plant-based foods each week in their diet have more robust gut bacteria than those who only consume around 10. This variety can come from veggies, fruits, herbs, legumes, whole grains, nuts, seeds and even spices.

• Prioritise fibre: Fibre acts like food for your good gut bacteria and helps with regular bowel movements.
• Choose whole grain options: For example brown rice instead of white rice, wholemeal or multigrain bread instead of white bread.
• Stay hydrated: Drinking enough water is essential for overall digestive function and helps keep things moving smoothly.  
• Manage stress: Chronic stress can negatively impact your gut health. Incorporate calming activities such as mindfulness, deep breathing, or mindful eating into your daily routine. Light exercise, especially after meals, can also support digestion and help reduce stress.
• Get enough sleep: Quality sleep is important for overall health, including the health of your gut. 

Can gut health be healed with diet alone or do you need supplements too?

For many people, significant improvements in gut health can be achieved through dietary changes alone. 
However, in some cases, supplements like probiotics or prebiotics might be beneficial, especially under the guidance of a healthcare professional. They can be helpful for specific situations, but diet should always be the foundation.

How long does it take to notice a difference in gut health?

This varies by individual. Many people notice improved digestive symptoms like bloating or regularity in as little as a week or two of making dietary changes. Other benefits, like clearer skin or better mood, may take a few weeks to months as your microbiome adjusts.

➡️ Consistency is key!

How to help your kids improve their gut health?

You can help your kids build a healthy gut by:

• Encouraging a diverse diet: Offer a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
• Including fibre-rich foods: Make sure they’re getting enough fruits, vegetables, beans, and whole grains.
• Limit processed foods and sugary drinks: These can negatively impact the gut microbiome.  
• Promote an active lifestyle and good sleep habits: These contribute to overall well-being, including gut health.  
• Be mindful of antibiotic use: Use antibiotics only when necessary and as prescribed by a doctor, as they can disrupt the gut microbiome.  

Remember, small, consistent changes can make a big difference over time. If you are still feeling unsure and would like further information or need individualised support, we recommend seeking advice from an Accredited Practising Dietitian.
