Our overall wellbeing is deeply connected to what we consume. For women, this connection between nourishment and overall wellbeing is stronger. This International Women’s Day, understand your body’s interconnectedness and discover the benefits of balanced nutrition for your health.
Good nutrition means more than just eating well; it’s about your body’s ability to absorb and use those nutrients effectively. This is where gut health plays a crucial role, especially for women. The gut is often referred to as the body’s “second brain” because of its profound impact on our physical and emotional wellbeing.
DNA testing provides a scientific approach to understanding your gut functionality by analysing genetic markers that affect digestion, nutrient absorption, and gut microbiome composition. This in-depth analysis allows wellbeing experts to craft a personalised diet that nurtures beneficial gut microbes and supports overall health. By aligning your nutrition plan with your genetic makeup, Dharana at Shillim ensures that every meal contributes to your unique wellbeing goals. For women, maintaining a healthy gut is even more crucial due to its role in various aspects of health:
-
Hormone Balance
The gut plays a vital role in regulating hormones like estrogen that impact menstrual health, mood, and metabolism. A well-balanced gut helps eliminate toxins, preventing imbalances that could lead to issues like irregular cycles, PCOS, or mood swings. -
Reproductive Health
Good gut bacteria support fertility, reduce the risk of infections, and enhance overall reproductive wellbeing, making gut health a crucial factor for women at every stage of life. -
Better Moods and Mental Wellbeing
The combination of seasonal diets and nutritional meals regulate mood and mental health. Poor gut health from unhealthy eating habits is linked to anxiety, depression, and increased stress levels. A healthy gut promotes emotional balance, reducing mood swings and mental fatigue. -
Stronger Immune System
Nearly 70% of the immune system resides in the gut. A healthy gut strengthens immune function, helping the body fight infections, reduce inflammation, and recover faster from illnesses. -
Clearer, Healthier Skin
An imbalanced gut can lead to skin issues like acne, eczema, and dullness. A healthy gut promotes clearer skin by reducing inflammation, improving hydration, and enhancing nutrient absorption.
