Herbs for gut microbiome balance and healthy gastrointestinal and liver function.

Promote Your Gut Health with Daily Support

When combined with a stress-reducing and physically active lifestyle, Gut Balance helps deliver on what Dr. Rawls believes are the five keys to supporting your foundation for all-around gut health:

• Stimulate Digestion: Effective digestion alleviates many forms of occasional GI discomfort and gives you the energy you depend on from the wholesome foods you eat. Consuming bitter herbal compounds primes the stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and intestines for optimal breakdown and assimilation of foods. This is especially important given that our production of digestive enzymes and stomach acid naturally decline as we age. Optimizing liver and gallbladder function supports bile production and excretion, which are important for proper fat digestion and absorption. Stimulating good digestion prevents undigested food particles from building up and becoming toxic or eroding the GI tract lining.
• Enhance Normal Detoxification: In addition to decreasing the inflow of toxins into the body, supporting the detoxifying abilities of organs such as the liver and kidneys is key. The more efficient the detoxification process, the sooner our liver is free to perform other critical functions such as producing and secreting bile, which are key to proper digestion.
• Support Your Gut Microbiome: Giving the gut microbiome a boost can go a long way towards making sure that the right combination of beneficial microbes are present to help convert and absorb the nutrients in our food and help us maintain a healthy intestinal lining. In addition, many of these microbes are involved in the production of mood-affecting neurotransmitters like serotonin that can affect our sleep quality and mental health.
• Nourish Your Digestive Tract and Decrease Gut Sensitivity: The gastrointestinal lining is not only home to our beneficial gut flora, it also serves as a protective and moistening barrier that prevents irritating food particles, microbes, and toxins from entering the rest of the body. Nourishing the gut lining can improve membrane integrity and minimize certain food sensitivities.
• Maintain Healthy Bowel Function: Supporting healthy bowel function not only relieves occasional GI discomfort, it also maintains one of your critical detoxification pathways. Soluble fiber, proper flow of bile and other digestive enzymes, and a healthy gut lining all contribute to normal, healthy bowel movements.
• Bonus Benefits: In addition to the above digestive-health benefits, Gut Balance also helps maintain cholesterol and blood sugar levels that are already within a healthy range. Ingredients in Gut Balance have also been used historically to support the skin, thanks to the liver’s role in skin health.*
