How to Detox Your Belly Each Morning

how to detox your gut

How many times have you heard the saying “listen to your gut”? Your gut isn’t just good to use to see if something’s off or not right. It’s important to listen to your gut since it’s usually trying to tell you something. Have you ever experienced butterflies when you’re nervous or felt gassy or bloated after eating certain foods? We’ve all been there before, and it’s your gut’s way of telling you that something is off.

Did you know that nearly 75% of Americans are living with some sort of digestive issue? An imbalanced gut has also been linked to chronic diseases, including obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and Crohn’s. Because nearly everything you do impacts your gut microbiome, it’s essential to make sure your gut is in tip-top shape, from the inside out.

Because your gut is connected to nearly every system and organ in the body, your daily choices and habits have a significant impact on it.

What you eat, how you feel, if you’re stressed out or not–all these things (and more!) can contribute to gut imbalances. Don’t think your gut being “off” is important, check out below.

Hydrate your butt off!

Water is one of the easiest (and cheapest!) ways to cleanse your body. Try breaking up your daily coffee, caffeinated beverage, or sweetened drink with just water. It’s the best way to stay hydrated consistently.

“Well, I don’t like the taste of water” I hear some of you say. Well, that’s fine, just add fruit.

Adding fruit to your water gives you both flavor and natural sweetener to your water, which may trick you into thinking you’re drinking a flavored drink.
