What are some hidden causes of digestive issues that may lead to gastrointestinal discomfort or dysfunction?

Stress profoundly impacts digestion by promoting biofilm formation, damaging the gut lining, speeding up transit time, causing leaky gut, and disrupting the microbiome. Key stressors include emotional stress, antibiotics, and medical treatments. To mitigate these effects:

1. Manage stress effectively.

2. Consider L-glutamine for gut support.

3. Use probiotics and fermented foods cautiously, adjusting as needed to a carnivore diet if bloating persists.
