Go With Your Gut: Healing From Within

Digestive discomfort such as constipation, bloating, diarrhea, food intolerance and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are extremely common.  These conditions can really make life difficult, and affect one's social life, career, family relationships and general enjoyment of life.

Underneath the surface, the health of the gut and the 'microbiome' (your unique collection of gut bacteria) are now known to play a role in the development of many other seemingly unrelated health issues.  Research is showing links between unhealthy gut bacteria populations and conditions such as diabetes, weight gain, allergies, eczema, low immunity, autoimmune diseases and even your mental state.  

With these conditions all on the rise, it just makes sense to ensure we are looking after our gut health.  

At this workshop, Linda will be covering the latest information and useful tips on gut health, including:

-What has happened to our gut over the past few decades - why are these conditions now so common?
