Health Starts in the Gut

Kerry Locatelli, BNAT

Have you ever heard the phrase “Health starts in the gut”? 

Our gut health supports digestion, nutrient absorption, and may even support our mood. Inside our gut, we have trillions of bacteria, known as the gut microbiome. These tiny organisms support the breakdown of food, the normal healthy production of nutrients and balance good and bad bacteria within the gut. 

We want to look after the integrity of the gut lining. A healthy gut lining acts as a barrier. It also supports immune health and maintains healthy gut function. 

Regular bowel movements are important too as this supports the normal healthy elimination of waste and toxins from the body, maintaining a healthy gut. 

Staying hydrated and getting regular exercise also plays a role in maintaining gut health. Water supports digestion, and physical activity keeps things moving smoothly. 

At GO Healthy, we have a range of products to support gut health, including GO Gut Soothe 

This product contains ACTAZIN ™ and Glutamine to support a healthy bowel, soothe bloating and support gut comfort. ACTAZIN™ is a specialised blend of natural green kiwifruit components grown and processed in New Zealand. This scientifically studied ingredient is shown to gently support the digestive system and contains dietary fibre which acts like a prebiotic to support some good bacteria in the gut.  It also contains antioxidant polyphenols that may support immune health and Glutamine that may support intestinal mucosa health and a healthy gut lining. 

Always read the label and use as directed. If symptoms persist see your healthcare professional. GO Healthy, Auckland TAPS PP5193
