The process unfolds in three main phases: the cephalic, gastric, and intestinal phases. At the centre of this orchestration is the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS)- particularly the vagus nerve- which governs much of the body’s “rest and digest” activity. Proper PNS function is essential for stomach acid production, protein digestion, vitamin B12 absorption, and the release of digestive enzymes. https://www.glow-nutrition.co.uk/blog/how-to-look-after-yournbspgut-this-christmas monthly 0.5 2023-12-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/636d21846eaec223f4b10919/fe4a30d3-3d81-4d8b-a0b9-beaf0bf503b1/Christmas-Dinner-for-One.jpg Blog - How To Look After Your Gut This Christmas - Each of us has approximately 100 trillion microbes in our gut.

Lack of adequate chewing can lead to bloating, constipation, and heart burn. Our saliva contains digestive enzymes so starts the break down process so we can get the nutrients from our food, while the act of chewing signals to our stomach to prepare for what’s to come. Aim for 30 chews a bite! Breathwork before a meal can also go a long way. 3-10 deep diaphragmatic breathes can help calm the nervous system getting us into the rest & digest phase needed for optimal gut health. https://www.glow-nutrition.co.uk/blog/irritable-bowel-syndrome-is-this-you monthly 0.5 2023-12-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/636d21846eaec223f4b10919/e3ac7f08-88de-47a5-b335-c9417ba2a74f/images.png Blog - Irritable Bowel Syndrome- Is This You? - Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common gut disorders globally with estimates that it affects 1 in 10 people![1] IBS is an umbrella term to describe many symptoms related to the gut.

In working with a nutritionist they may also recommend specific items based on the individual's dietary restrictions, allergies, and health goals. As well as this even though I am a professional I am just like everyone else when it comes to food shopping! I can be prone to the same temptations and the occasional impulse buy. It may sound simple but it’s why I never shop without thinking through what it is I want to buy and eat. A couple of minutes over the weekend thinking about and planning your week’s meals and what ingredients you will need can go a long way! Planning is key to making it easier on ourselves to leave the supermarket with a healthy and nutritious shopping basket. https://www.glow-nutrition.co.uk/blog/blog-post-title-one-sg4aw monthly 0.5 2023-10-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/636d21846eaec223f4b10919/1697713723957-KC2M3KQ90GQ83LKXC5VR/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Getting The Glow - When you start searching for answers to how to get healthy, ‘glowing’ skin, it’s amazing how many suggestions focus on outside-in solutions. In a way it makes sense, after all, if we apply topical treatments, such as the right serums and moisturizer, our skin is going to look healthier.

So I want to take you through a variety of simple but effective ways you can support healthy skin through the food choices you make. https://www.glow-nutrition.co.uk/home daily 1.0 2026-03-16
