5. Chronic fatigue
People who are dealing with chronic fatigue syndrome are also experiencing abnormal levels of specific types of gut bacteria, as most studies suggest. As a matter of fact, the relationship between chronic fatigue and an unhealthy gut is so powerful that a recent study suggests that approximately 80 percent of people who have chronic fatigue, were diagnosed due to their gut bacteria tests.
Dealing with an unhealthy gut can also impact your circadian rhythm, the latter affecting your sleep. So, if you’re feeling tired all the time, maybe it’s because of your gut. Talk to your doctor regarding this issue, he or she may determine the root cause, therefore suggest possible treatment.
How to restore your gut health
The first step to take in restoring your gut health is to determine what may have caused the imbalance in the first place. A naturopathic doctor may be the solution for you, as he or she can perform tests in order to see if foods damaged your gut health or something else.
However, it’s best to boost the growth of beneficial bacteria when you’re experiencing diarrhea, gas, bloating, or constipation. Add foods high in fiber to your diet, as well as collagen-boosting ones such as salmon and bone broth in order to help your gut.
