GUT HEALTH
The health of your gut affects your entire body.
Your gut health affects nutritional status, hormone balance, weight, immune function, inflammation and pain, how well you get rid of toxins, energy levels, sleep quality, brain function, and more! Your gut affects your whole body!
my EXPERTISE:
gut function
Gut function (digestion, motility, gut lining) REALLY impacts your health.
food reactions
Even if a food is "healthy," if you are reacting to it, it's not healthy for YOU.
gut microbiome
The microbes living in your gut can cause MANY different symptoms.
Gut and food tests can be normal.
You can have gut microbiome imbalances and food reactions, even with normal test results!
Your GI tract (mouth to booty!) is almost 30 feet long, and different areas have different functions, environments, and microbiomes. It's impossible for stool tests or imaging to reflect everything going on in your gut! Your body can also react to foods through many different pathways, and food testing only evaluates a few of those. That's why your overall symptom picture is ALWAYS more important than your test results, and it's why you need someone on your team that understands gut health AND the rest of your symptom picture!

Clues you've got gut trouble:
If you have any chronic symptoms, your gut health IS playing a role!
This may surprise you, but you can have NO gut symptoms and still have digestive issues, food reactions, or microbiome imbalances that are significantly affecting your overall health! And if you DO have gut symptoms, then your gut is definitely impacting your health!
So what causes the function, health, and balance of your gut to decline? Things like dietary choices, food reactions, many prescription drugs, stealth (hidden) infections, poor sleep, unmanaged stress, toxins, sluggish detox pathways, and unprocessed trauma.
That's why it's necessary to take a whole-body approach when optimizing your gut health!
Expert Insight
Detox and gut health go hand-in-hand!
You can’t have a healthy gut when your body is loaded with toxins, and you can’t properly detox your body when your gut isn't healthy!
You have to address BOTH!
Dr Mamie has been a life changer for me. I have had stomach issues for a long time, and as most people, have used doctors in our medical field. I have taken their tests and the medicine as prescribed. I was counting on this system to help me, but I never got better, I only got worse.
As a matter of fact, they looked at me in quizzical amazement because their test showed nothing was wrong. After my stomach totally shut down, I began looking for different alternatives. I mentioned this once to a prominent GI doctor and he flatly told me to not to bring up this information to him again. That was about the time the news broke that Zantac causes cancer. That was a medication I was using.
I decided to never go back. I changed my diet and started on a journey to find someone who knew and understood the new research and was equipped to handle my issues.
Dr Mamie was the answer to that search. She first of all listened to me with respect and compassion. She looked at older lab test results and new ones she ordered, and a plan was formed. She gave me diet advice, a vitamin regimen, and natural medicines to take care of the issues the doctors should have caught.
Today I'm so much better, and I give Dr Mamie the credit. She is there with me every step of the way encouraging me. I will continue seeking her skilled advice, and encourage anyone who feels left out of the current medical system to come see Dr. Mamie! ~C.P.
