Your outside starts inside - Happy Gutober!
"Radiating from within" is a phrase often used to describe glowing, healthy-looking skin and overall spark and well-being. And who among us doesn’t want that? Gut health plays a crucial role in achieving this kind of radiance. What we put into the gut shows on the outside (and the inside, but that’s a whole other story).
The gut, our gastrointestinal system, is home to trillions of microorganisms, including bacteria, that are collectively known as the gut microbiome. Maintaining a balanced and healthy gut microbiome is essential for not only digestive health but also for promoting clear skin and an energetic vibe.
Clinical nutritionist and Supercharged Food founder, Lee Holmes says: ‘It’s no secret that I love the gut. It’s my favourite organ! It’s an unsung hero of health. That’s why the Supercharged team have created Gutober - to sing the praises of the gut and shine a spotlight on its many vital functions. Happy Gutober everyone.’

Here's how gut health is linked to your outsides.
Nutrient Absorption: The gut is responsible for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. A healthy gut lining ensures that essential vitamins and minerals are absorbed properly, which can support healthy skin, hair, and nails.
Inflammation: An imbalanced gut can lead to chronic inflammation. Inflammation can trigger skin conditions such as acne, eczema, or psoriasis, so reducing inflammation by maintaining a healthy gut can contribute to clearer skin.
Immune Function: A significant portion of the immune system resides in the gut. A balanced gut microbiome supports immune function, helping the body defend against infections and potentially reducing the risk of skin issues.
Probiotics: Consuming foods or supplements rich in probiotics (beneficial bacteria) can help maintain a healthy gut microbiome. These probiotics can aid in digestion and support overall health.
Skin Conditions: There's a strong connection between gut health and certain skin conditions. For example, conditions like rosacea, acne, and eczema have been linked to gut imbalances.
To support "radiating from within" through gut health:
- Eat a balanced and diverse diet with plenty of fibre, fruits, and vegetables. These foods promote a healthy gut microbiome.
- Keep your gut clean to optimise its performance. Love Your Gut diatomaceous earth and fulvic humic are brilliantly gentle gut cleansers.
- Consume probiotic-rich foods such as yogurt, kefir, kimchi, sauerkraut, and kombucha.
- Consider taking probiotic supplements, especially if you have specific gut issues.
- Stay hydrated, water is important for digestion.
- Manage stress, as chronic stress can negatively impact gut health. Practice relaxation techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.
- Avoid excessive consumption of processed foods, sugary snacks, and alcohol, as these can disrupt the gut microbiome.
If you suspect gut-related issues are affecting your skin or overall health, consult a healthcare professional for personalised guidance.
Remember that achieving a healthy glow from within is not only about gut health but also encompasses other factors like a balanced diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and a good skincare routine. All these elements work together to create a vibrant and healthy appearance.
Love,
The Supercharge Your Gut Team
