The Gut-Brain Connection: Treating the root cause is the key to optimal health

At Fitcom India, we believe that true healing comes from addressing the root cause of a problem, rather than just treating the symptoms. One of the main issues that we see as a root cause of various health problems is gut imbalances. The gut plays a crucial role in our overall health, from the moment food enters our mouth to the moment it exits our body as waste.

But what exactly is the root cause healing? It means focusing on the underlying issues that are causing the symptoms, rather than simply masking them with medication. We strongly believe that no symptom or disease should be considered "normal" or "just genetics." Instead, we need to understand why we are affected by these illnesses and address the root cause of the problem.

For those with autoimmune diseases, gut healing is crucial. When proteins from our food leak into our bloodstream due to a damaged gut, they can trigger an autoimmune response and attack healthy tissues in our body. Even medication for skin conditions like psoriasis can cause gut imbalances and hormonal issues, ultimately risking our overall well-being.

In our practice, we always start with the root cause healing, and that begins with the gut. Many of our clients have seen improvements in their thyroid health, type-2 diabetes and sleepless nights by healing their gut and incorporating a higher fat, moderate to high protein and very low carb protocol.

It's time to shift our focus from symptoms to the root cause of our health problems. Don't settle for just masking the symptoms, as that may lead to further issues down the line. At Fitcom India, we believe that educating ourselves on the gut-brain connection is crucial for optimal health. So let's challenge our healthcare providers to address the root cause and not just the symptoms, because getting to the root cause is the key to optimal health.
