Digestive + Autoimmune + Women’s Health | Functional Nutrition
The gut microbiota helps to support our immune sys The gut microbiota helps to support our immune system by doing a number of things. 

It takes the nutrients we consume from out diet and turns it into energy. 

It makes vitamins. Like it literally creates vitamins such as biotin and vitamin K. 

It puts on its armor and defends our body against harmful pathogens. 

It acts as a barrier to help support our immune system by blocking all the bad things from coming in.

But here is the deal. It can't do all that if it is weak and dismantled. And when that happens, we start to feel pretty lousy, we become more susceptible sickness and autoimmune gene triggers, and our hormones go haywire.

By working to find stress management strategies, choosing anti-inflammatory foods, and balancing our bacteria through diversity we can work to provide our gut with as many good gut bugs as possible --> to do all the cool things it can do to help support our health!

If you are ready to tackle your health and find out what this looks like for you sign up to work with us! We have many options available, ranging from 1:1 sessions, high touch signature programs, or our online course, The Functional Gut Approach!

While medical testing primarily looks at the reproductive system, LexStart looks at what’s going on throughout your body and your gut. 

Our gut microbiome is important to take care of. Furthermore, having enough beneficial bacteria throughout our gut is important. If there’s not, that’s when things go haywire. 

Our gut bacteria plays an important role in our immune system, hormone balance, digestion and more.

If you want to optimize your fertility, you need to optimize your gut!

Fun Facts: ✨ The gut microbiota is considered to Fun Facts:
✨ The gut microbiota is considered to be a full fledged endocrine organ 😮
✨The gut microbiota plays a HUGE role in the reproductive endocrine system of a woman
✨The gut microbiota interacts with estrogen, androgens, insulin, and other hormones
✨ Imbalances in the gut microbiota can lead to several diseases and conditions, including pregnancy complications, adverse pregnancy outcomes, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and endometriosis

All of that to say, there are many variables that can affect fertility, but nutrition should not be overlooked!

Working to optimize gut health through nutrition and lifestyle is a great addition to other medical interventions.
