What Exactly Is Gut Health?

Your gut , or more specifically, your gastrointestinal tract , is home to trillions of bacteria. This ecosystem is known as your gut microbiome, and it plays a major role in:

  • Breaking down food & absorbing nutrients
  • Producing hormones and neurotransmitters (like serotonin , your feel-good hormone)
  • Regulating appetite and satiety (via hormones like GLP-1)
  • Training and strengthening your immune system
  • Communicating with your brain through the gut-brain axis

When your gut is thriving, you feel more balanced, energised, and in tune with your body. When it’s not? You feel it , through bloating, sluggishness, skin flare-ups, cravings, or mood dips.
