I didn’t expect my healing journey to start in my gut.
After months of fatigue, skin flare-ups, joint pain, and a drawer full of prescriptions that only made things worse, I knew something had to change. I was diagnosed with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, and instead of relief, the medications left me feeling even more disconnected from my body.
So, I stopped chasing surface-level fixes and started looking inward.
Gut Health Is the Foundation of Everything
The more I learned, the more I realized that the gut is more than just a digestive system. It’s the body's control center, impacting energy, mood, hormones, immunity, and even skin health. “The gut-brain connection goes both ways. A troubled intestine can send signals to the brain, just as a troubled brain can send signals to the gut.” [Harvard Health]
When it's off, everything feels off.
Your Gut Does More Than Digest
We often think of gut health as just about digestion, but it influences:
- Mood & emotional balance (thanks to the gut-brain connection)
- Hormone regulation
- Immune responses
- Skin clarity
- Energy levels
If your gut is out of sync, your body can’t communicate properly with the systems it’s meant to support.
Signs Your Gut Might Be Asking for Help
- Frequent bloating or gas
- Low energy or fatigue
- Brain fog
- Mood swings or irritability
- Skin flare-ups or sensitivity
- Irregular digestion
- Food sensitivities
How I Started Supporting My Gut (Without Going Extreme)
I didn’t go on a drastic cleanse. I just made consistent, intentional changes:
- Reduced inflammatory foods [Harvard Health]
- Drank more water
- Added fiber and whole foods
- Introduced gut-supporting supplements that worked with my body
