Being healthy is always my number one priority. When I’m healthy my energy levels are high, my sleep quality is good, my training intensity is where it needs to be, my digestion is regular. When all of this is in check, it definitely shows in my physique as well as in my performance in the gym.

When learning about our wellness line I discovered so many ingredients that are in our products that I had never even heard of. These ingredients are key to my overall health and ensure that all the work that I do day in and day out, inside and out of the gym, is actually worth it.

A Note On Gut Microbiome Health

It’s actually incredible how much the health and balance of your gut microbiota (the thousands of tiny microorganisms, bacteria, virus and so on) that inhibit your gastrointestinal tract (GI) impacts both the body and the brain (through the complex interaction of the gut-brain axis). This network of living bacteria communicate and signal the brain which in turn results in energy, mood and emotional outputs.

Maintaining optimal gut health and increases the balance of positive ‘good’ gut bacteria over negative and harmful ‘bad’ good bacteria is genuinely so important – and such a massive emerging field of research; we’re just scraping the tip of the iceberg.

Through advances in science, testing your gut microbiome is now accessible and affordable, with gut microbiome testing now being offered to you at home. Samples are sent to high tech laboratories and results can be accesses, assessed and compared to cross population statistics. Testing your gut microbiome and making quick changes to your nutrition and lifestyle habits is an extremely powerful tool to allow you to achieve optimal health.

We’d strongly urge you to take a look at how the health of your gut might be impacting your performance and your mental health. If you do get a chance, and give it a go, let us know how you get on.
