You think your gut and microbiome are just a health thing? Hell no.
Your gut is your second brain—and it plays a direct role in your business.
Don't believe me? Check out these facts:
- About 90% of your serotonin is made in your gut, which means gut health impacts mood, focus, and happiness.
- Around 80% of your immune system is housed in your gut, meaning poor gut health can lead to chronic illness and inflammation.
- People with an imbalanced gut microbiome have a higher risk of heart disease due to increased inflammation and higher cholesterol levels.
- There are about 100 trillion microbial cells living in your gut, which is 10 times the number of human cells in your body.
If your gut is out of whack,
your business, your brain, and your energy are suffering. We're not just talking about bloating or an upset stomach—poor gut health can tank your focus, drain your energy, wreck your sleep, and even mess with your mood. If you're walking around feeling foggy, sluggish, or constantly craving junk, your gut might is screaming for help.
🚨 Warning Signs Your Gut Might Be Screwed Think gut issues are just about digestion? Think again. Here are
some red flags that your gut might be running on fumes:
✅ Constant bloating, gas, or heartburn
✅ Skin issues like acne, eczema, or dandruff
✅ Brain fog or low energy that won't go away
✅ Cravings for sugar and simple carbs
✅ Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
✅ Frequent colds and immune problems
✅ Bone density or oral health issues
✅ Chronic inflammation and autoimmune struggles
If this sounds familiar,
your gut is just begging for a reboot. 👇 15 Ways to Fix Your Gut (and Your Performance) ASAP
1. Cut Out Artificial Sweeteners & Processed Crap High fructose corn syrup and artificial sweeteners
disrupt gut bacteria and make healthy microbes turn against you. Simple rule: If it comes in a box, bag, or bottle,
it's probably screwing up your gut.
2. Rethink Plants (Yes, Really) Not all plants are your friends. Legumes, raw veggies, and hybridized grains can
wreck digestion by interfering with nutrient absorption. Stick to:
✅
Well-cooked, organic veggies (zucchini, carrots, potatoes—peeled and soaked first)
✅
Fermented foods (sauerkraut, kimchi)
✅
Easily digestible greens (seaweed, lettuce, asparagus)
3. Tap Water? More Like Toxin Soup Your water might contain chlorine, fluoride, heavy metals, and even
chemical runoff from industrial plants. If you don't have a good filter, get one yesterday.
4. Balance Your Amino Acids Too much methionine (found in muscle meats) feeds bad bacteria. Offset it by eating
bone broth, stews, and collagen-rich foods. Your gut (and joints) will thank you.
5. Quit Wrecking Your Gut With Coffee & Alcohol Hate to say it, but excessive caffeine and alcohol strip your gut of
B vitamins and minerals, which are essential for digestion. Swap in bone broth or herbal teas to heal your gut lining. Don't overdo it with the java & tequila.
6. Stop Snacking Like It's a Full-Time Job Your gut
needs time to reset between meals. Constant snacking disrupts the
migrating motor complex (MMC)—aka the cleaning cycle of your intestines. Let your gut breathe.
7. Go Organic or Pay the Price Glyphosate (aka weed killer) is
everywhere in modern agriculture. It's been linked to gut damage, autoimmune issues, and even cancer. If you're eating conventional grains, soy, or corn, you're
inhaling this stuff daily. 8. Fix Your Fat Intake Good fats
fuel your gut, bad fats
wreck it. ✅
Good: Extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil, grass-fed butter
❌
Bad: Canola, soybean, cottonseed, and anything "vegetable oil"
9. Ditch Plastics & Non-Stick Pans Plastic chemicals and Teflon leach into your food and
disrupt gut bacteria. Stainless steel and glass are your new best friends.
10. Reset Your Circadian Rhythm Your gut follows
your sleep cycle. If your sleep is garbage, your digestion is too. Fix it by:
☀️
Getting morning sunlight ASAP 📴
Blocking blue light at night ⏰
Keeping a regular sleep schedule 11. Go Outside & Touch Some Grass Gut health isn't just about food.
Sunlight, fresh air, and grounding improve microbiome diversity. Don't be a cave goblin—get outdoors.
12. Get Your Nutrients in Check Your gut needs
vitamin K, zinc, B vitamins, glycine, choline, magnesium, and selenium to function properly. Deficiencies = disaster. Load up on:
🥩
Grass-fed meats (especially liver)
🍳
Egg yolks 🥔
Potatoes 🥥
Coconut water 13. Cut Out A1 Dairy Not all dairy is created equal.
A1 casein (found in conventional milk) causes gut inflammation. Try
A2 dairy (like goat's milk) or raw dairy instead.
14. Manage Your Stress Before It Manages You Stress destroys gut function. It lowers digestive enzyme production, wrecks your microbiome, and keeps you in
fight-or-flight mode 24/7. Quick fixes: ✅ Walk outside after meals
✅ Deep breathing before eating
✅ Eat in calm environments (not in front of a screen)
15. Think Bigger Than Just "Gut Health" Digestion isn't just about your gut. If your
liver, pancreas, gallbladder, or stomach acid are off, everything else
falls apart. Gut health is a
whole-body game. Bonus: Walk After Meals One of the simplest hacks?
Go for a walk after eating. It improves digestion, regulates blood sugar, and helps prevent bloating.
Your Gut = Your Edge A wrecked gut slows your brain, tanks your energy, and keeps you
playing at half-speed. Founders who prioritize their health
outperform, outlast, and out-earn those who don't.
LFG 🚀
