Nourishing the adrenals while optimizing the microbiome

We all know the negative impact that chronic stress has on the
body and how it can create, as Dr. Erin Stokes says, ‘cracks in the foundation’
of our health. I recently read a bit of fascinating insight into how stress has
a direct impact on digestion and how this can ultimately weaken our
foundation.
As I perused the latest issue of Emerson Ecologics’ “Element”
Quarterly Newsletter, I read a great article that outlines the connection
between stress and decreased levels of secretory IgA (SIgA). The article, which cites sources from The
Journal of Behavioral Medicine and the Annals of Clinical Biochemistry,
outlines the response to intense or long-standing stress and elevated cortisol
levels and the subsequent depressed levels of SIgA. Obviously, this impacts foundational health
as SIgA plays a critical role in mucosal immunity and is often referred to as
the immune system’s first line of defense. When SIgA is impaired, this has a
downstream effect on the digestive system’s functionality and provides an opportunity
for potentially unhealthy pathogens to thrive.
Simply put, this is why higher concentration Ashwagandha
extracts such as Sensoril and other adaptogenics such as Holy Basil are
included in many GI protocols; to support the adrenal connection to gut
health*. Oregano, Carpylic Acid and probiotics are wonderful options that can
be applied simultaneously to support a balance of gut bacteria while turmeric
and boswellia can support a healthy inflammatory response locally in the gut*.
Nourishing the adrenals while optimizing the microbiome might
end up being the magic combination for the stressed out, digestively impaired
patient who has ‘tried everything’ to feel better.
This scenario of heightened stress and susceptibility to
digestive imbalance is all too often observed in so many of our practices. This
is exactly why we might want to first look to supporting a healthy stress
response in order to provide the best possible support to the GI tract.

I was born epileptic and at the same time I was having gastro disorder, but I am now free and cured by Dr Itua Herbal Made Medicine. I was seventeen and sitting at my computer when I fell out of my chair. Only thing I remember is waking up with the worst headache I had ever had in my life. I had never taken medication and I hated swallowing pills but I had to start. I switched between all kinds of medication because I didn't take them like I was supposed to. One day I had just finished running errands and was at my sister's house when I fell to the floor again. I woke up with a bad headache and my 2 year old Niece leaning over my leg asking me if I was OK. By then I had just started college and was one the verge of losing my license. My school is an hour away from where I live so I really got set back because I wasn't allowed to drive until I got my seizures under control. I would love to know how others have handled their epilepsy! So My sister's friend Emma Told my sister about a herbal Doctor who resides in west Africa(Nigeria) Because Emma is from Africa as well, My sister told me about it then we decided to give it a try. My sister contacted him also tell him about my autism too.he assures my sister that his herbal medicine will cure my epilepsy and my autism, I paid for the herbal medicine then he delivered to Charleston Post office I was called to pick it up which i quickly did, I drank it for two weeks as prescribed happily I went for diagnose and find out my Epilepsy and Autism is gone and today making it 9 Months and I'm now free from Autism, Seizure and Epilepsy, I will continue to share Dr Itua Natural Herbal Medicine works.
