HOW TO SUPPORT YOUR GUT HEALTH
The health of your gut plays a key role in your overall health and well-being.
Our gut breaks down food, processes it, draws out nutrients, sorts the useful from the waste, disperses to our vital organs and bloodstream, creates hormones, has a direct phone line to our brains, is home to billions of vital bacteria, produces feel-good serotonin, fuels our bodies, disposes of the waste. Oh, and it’s our second brain. Phew! It’s no wonder here at Supercharged Food we Love Your Gut.
Learn how to support your overall health by loving your gut.
