Affecting 80% of the population, leaky gut syndrome is the root cause of a litany of ailments, including chronic inflammation, allergies, autoimmune diseases, hypothyroidism, adrenal fatigue, diabetes, and even arthritis. In order to keep us in good health, our gut relies on maintaining a symbiotic relationship with trillions of microorganisms that live in our digestive tract. In Eat Dirt, Dr Axe explains that what we regard as modern improvements to our food supply – including refrigeration, sanitation, and modified grains – have damaged our intestinal health. In fact, the same organisms in soil that allow plants and animals to flourish are the ones we need for gut health. When our digestive system is out of whack, serious health problems can manifest and our intestinal walls can develop microscopic holes, allowing undigested food particles, bacteria, and toxins to seep into the bloodstream. This condition is known as leaky gut syndrome and manifests differently in every individual. In Eat Dirt, Dr Axe identifies the five main types of leaky gut syndrome and offers customizable 30-day plans for diagnosing and treating each 'gut type' with diet, lifestyle, and supplementation. He explains that it's essential to get a little 'dirty' in our daily lives in order to support our gut bacteria and prevent leaky gut syndrome, and offers simple ways to get these needed microbes, from incorporating local honey and bee pollen into your diet to forgoing hand sanitizers and even ingesting a little probiotic-rich soil. The premise is simple: identify your gut type, learn which foods to eat and to avoid, incorporate your daily dose of 'dirt', and make simple lifestyle changes.

Are you struggling with IBS, Crohn's Disease, constipation, IBD, or other gut issues, and nothing is helping? If you have tried everything and aren’t feeling better, your vagus nerve might be the culprit. Trauma, chronic stress, or surgery can damage your vagus nerve and put you into a perpetual state of fight, flight, freeze, instead of rest, digest, and heal. When the vagus nerve isn’t working properly, there is a lack of communication between the gut and the brain. This makes it hard for your body and your gut to function properly. “The Vagus Nerve Gut-Brain Connection: Heal Your Vagus Nerve and Improve Gut Health,” gives you easy exercises to stimulate your vagus nerve. There are really simple things you can do, like breathing in certain patterns, that train your body to turn off your stress response, allowing the vagus nerve to put you into a state where you can rest, digest, and heal. This practical, concise guide gives you actionable steps you can easily take to improve the function of your vagus nerve in just a few minutes a day. Special bonus chapter is included to help you heal your child's vagus nerve. Includes information on how to tone your child's vagus nerve and how to help them get into the important rest digest, and heal state they need to have a healthy gut. In Meditations to Soothe the Vagus Nerve, we will explore how to use guided meditation, mantra-based meditations, EFT, and mindful visualization to restore balance to the nerve. We will also explore breathing exercises designed to activate the vagus nerve and bring us back to a peaceful state. Finally, the book offers practical advice on how to incorporate these meditations into your daily life to help you restore your vagus nerve to full functioning. With step-by-step instructions, this book will help readers understand the connection between the vagus nerve and relaxation and will provide meditative techniques to reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep and digestion, and enhance overall well-being. With the help of this book, you’ll be able to soothe the vagus nerve and enter a state of rest, digest, and heal.
