Why fixing your gut is the only way to reverse autoimmunity #healing #guthealth #shorts

This is a huge driver of autoimmune disease and it's called leaky gut. And what that means is that the lining breaks down in your gut between basically your intestinal contents, poop and food, and your bloodstream. And then poop and food literally leak across that barrier. And right across that barrier is 60% of your immune system. And your immune system is there to protect you against foreign invaders. And it starts to overreact. And over time, that confusion can turn into your body attacking itself. If you're struggling with autoimmune disease, what should you focus on? Whole, real, unprocessed food. Lots of fruits and veggies. Lots of good fats like olive oil, avocados, nuts and seeds. High-quality protein. Foods that help your gut. Fiber-rich foods with prebiotics in them. Fermented foods. Polyphenols. All these are critical for feeding the healthy gut bacteria and help with regulating immunity. Because food isn't just calories, right? It's information for your immune system. Even a so-called healthy food can become a trigger if your gut's compromised.
