Gastro-intestinal health refers to the health and functioning of your GI Tract, as it relates to digestion, how you absorb food, immunity, and microbial health.
There can be many causes of GI issues, such as: lack of adequate nutrition, poor digestion or imbalance, food allergies or intolerance, even stress can affect your gut.
At Root, our dedicated team wants to work with you to find, address, and treat the root cause of gastrointestinal imbalance symptoms such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas and indigestion.
Health starts here. What we feed our bodies is a critical aspect in achieving Whole Body Health. Food is medicine and the right food will support immune system function, tamp down illness driving inflammation, soothe digestive complaints, ease anxiety & depression, improve heart health and reduce the risk for a host of cancers.
While we intuitively understand the importance of food in causing and relieving health issues, most doctors are much more knowledgeable about prescribing drugs than foods and the ‘food as medicine’ philosophy has been largely overlooked.
The food we eat can be either medicine, or a slow form of poison. Food as medicine is not only an integral part of the natural medicine we practice at Root, but it is also one of our four pillars of whole body health alongside movement, immunity, and pause. This is because the food that we eat is scientifically proven to impact our physical and mental health. At Root, all of our providers consider the diets of their patients when practicing natural medicine.
At Root, a food as medicine approach means starting with a base of whole food, plant-rich, nutrient-dense foods, adding lean, healthy proteins and boosting with super foods & key nutrients such as adaptogens, healing herbs or key supplements most of us are lacking, such as Vitamin D or immune system fueling Vitamin C.
