GUT DYSFUNCTION
(Acid reflux, IBS, Inflammatory bowel disease, cramps, bloating, bowel changes, and gas)

We are not what we eat, but rather what we absorb. Gut dysfunction and nutrient malabsorption lead to a variety of gut specific symptoms, but are also the leading cause of systemic inflammation. Systemic inflammation is now recognized to be a significant contributor in the development of chronic diseases such autoimmune disease, cancer, heart disease, and dementia.

The physicians at Healix Health utilize testing designed to assess food intolerances and cross reactivities, digestive tract inflammation/infection/maldigestion, and microbiome alterations as well as micro-nutrient deficiencies. This testing, along with a comprehensive patient history, provide the basis for an individualized treatment plan.

Healing and optimizing gut function is one of the most proactive steps we can take toward disease prevention and healthy aging. It optimizes our immune function and provides nutritional support to ensure we can repair our tissues and continue to enjoy optimal vitality.
