If you're looking for a business coach as a wellness practitioner, no doubt one of the very best for integrative medicine practitioners is Katie Corbin.

She has a deep understanding of what wellness practitioners have to go through to integrate the healing arts with systematic business development growth.

She also has an exceptional ability to help clients make decisions they instinctively know they need to make but haven't yet found the clarity to act upon.

With boots on the ground entrepreneurial experience, she has successfully launched her own acupuncture and wellness clinics.

Katie Corbin is a talented business coach who masterfully blends intuitive insight with practical, real-world experience.

I cannot more highly recommend her.

You can schedule a connection call with her to learn more if you are interested to learn more about what she offers:

Feeling depressed or anxious or extremely fatigued? ๐Ÿ˜ด

It could be that your gut is off, and itโ€™s affecting your brain. ๐Ÿง 

Hereโ€™s why. โžก๏ธ

Over 95% of our serotonin and over 50% of our dopamine is made in our gut. ๐Ÿฆ 

Serotonin is the feel-good chemical, also intimately involved in memory, learning, and attention. ๐ŸŒŸ

Dopamine helps to activate feelings of self-satisfaction around reward and pleasure. ๐ŸŽ‰

This means that an imbalance in the microbiome, such as after a round of antibiotics, could lead to a neurotransmitter imbalance, and cause anxiety (low serotonin) or depression (low dopamine). ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

This also means that when we improve the function of the gut, we also improve neurotransmitter production and balance. ๐ŸŒฑ

This is why assessing the gut-brain axis can be critical to health. โš–๏ธ

What Hippocrates forgot to mention is, โ€œAll health begins in the gut.โ€ ๐Ÿ

Read that again. ๐Ÿ‘†๐Ÿพ

What happens in the gut does not stay in the gut. ๐ŸŒฑ

Thatโ€™s why the gut is the gateway to chronic disease as well as optimal health. ๐Ÿšช

Over 2500 years ago, Hippocrates, who some consider the founder of modern medicine, said, โ€œAll disease begins the gut.โ€ ๐Ÿฉบ

Today what Hippocrates said is more true than ever before, borne out by thousands of studies on the microbiome, where up to 100 trillion cells and 70% of our immune system resides. ๐Ÿ”ฌ

Checking serum B12 levels is critical to assess gut health as well as to consider bacterial overgrowth. ๐Ÿ”

Why?

Approximately 20% of gut bacteria can produce vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin). ๐Ÿฆ 
, more than 80% of gut bacteria require B12 for their metabolic reactions. ๐Ÿ”„

Though research is extremely limited, what this means is that B12 deficiency or excess can be intimately entwined with microbiome status. ๐Ÿงฌ

Vitamin B12 plays a key role in: ๐Ÿ”‘

Red blood cell formation ๐Ÿ”ด
Neurological function ๐Ÿง 
DNA synthesis ๐Ÿงฌ
Energy metabolism โšก

Leaky gut isnโ€™t a question of if, itโ€™s a question of when.

Also known as intestinal permeability, leaky gut happens ... to everyone. ๐ŸŒ€

Some common causes:

Diet, such as processed food ๐Ÿ”
NSAIDs, antibiotics, steroids ๐Ÿ’Š
Stress ๐Ÿ˜“
Dysbiosis ๐Ÿฆ 
Candida ๐Ÿ„
Infection ๐Ÿฆ 
Inflammation ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Environmental exposure ๐Ÿž๏ธ

In my opinion, we are wired for intestinal permeability, as an evolutionary safeguard mechanism, in acute cases. ๐Ÿงฌ

Weโ€™re just not meant to have leaky gut chronically, 24/7.

The truth, though, is that leaky gut is a symptom of something deeper, not a root cause in and of itself.

Treat the cause(s) of leaky gut, not the symptoms, for lasting results. ๐Ÿ’ก
