How can we Restore our Gut Microbiome?

Pharmacology is currently looking at products on how they can restore our normal flora inside our inside cells. They are taking this science and twisting it and making synthetic drugs/compounds to fix the problem.

We need more nutritional support to change our gut microbiome. Our focus is how to change the microbiome from being dysfunctional to how to get it functioning properly.

Chronic illness has 2 features that make it dysfunctional:

    • Lack of diversity – the more diverse the healthier you are. Studies show that longevity increases if it’s all balanced properly
    • Lack of bacteria or “keystone” strains – all protective organisms are being eaten by our foods- pesticides and junk food is only eating away and not strengthening our bowels.

You will never be able to reseed your gut. There are strains in your gut, anaerobic bacteria (meaning oxygen-dependent bacteria), that are alive in our gut, but they are just not enough.

You need a probiotic that can go in and recondition the gut, not replace the strains. We want to make it a healthy place for these good anaerobic bacteria to multiply and thrive.

Let’s use a garden analogy – you are keeping your garden healthy, but the more it rains and the more chemicals hit your garden, the more it continues to wilt away. If you were to toss a handful of seeds into the garden, you just hope that a few will take so that your garden can grow again – same with probiotics. They are seeds placed in our gut to help multiply our good bacteria that are already present. No lab can replace these anaerobic strains of bacteria. They don’t breathe the same oxygen – it will never be the same.

Now let’s say that we hire an intelligent gardener who can go in weed out the garden, cover it from the chemicals and focus deeply on the soil – this is like reconditioning your gut.

We aren’t just taking the chance of throwing seeds into the garden in the middle of the acid rain, we are focusing 1:1 on this replenish.

Valerie and the entire team at well rooted have been an intergral part of my sons health journey. After visiting multiple Drs and not receiving a clear answer, I was at a complete loss on how to help my son. After our initial meeting with Valerie, I immediately knew we were at the right place! Not only did she take the time to listen but reassured both my son and I that we would get to the root cause of the issue. It hasn’t been a quick fix, however, after 6 months my son was feeling better and back to himself and I couldn’t be happier! Valerie didn’t just put a bandaid on the situation, but truly got to the root cause. I’m hopeful for my sons future and it wouldn’t be possible without the help of Val and the entire staff at well rooted. I feel truly blessed to have found them and highly recommend them to any parent who has been let down by the traditional health care system.

Jessica, since we started seeing you I loved how you’ve always fought for our daughter’s. You’ve seen us thru some scary times but ALWAYS place our daughter’s first and that’s why when you moved we decided to follow you. You’re awesome and my daughter’s don’t trust anyone else but you. Continue doing you Jessica, you’re awesome!

Where do I begin????? I’m going to begin by telling you all a little back history about how I found this Diamond. I went through the wringer with my toddler since the day she was born. Doctors under the sun couldn’t give me anything but short answers, I paid so much money for better care and I was tossed around with questions and no answers. My baby was in need of somebody to just examine her properly and no matter how hard I looked it seemed impossible. that was in the past, until Jessica welcomed us with open arms, found the problem and continues to bless us with answers to our concerns by addressing them in a way that nobody ever has. We have seen major improvements in our daughter by following everything Jessica says, if you got to this page, I highly reccomend her. My daughter has seen so many doctors, been poked and pronged so many times that she doesn’t even like to be seen anymore. Trauma. But Jessica is patient, and kind. And she will find a way to get them to like her. My kid smiled for her and that was enough for me. And our kids have the same exact birthday, which felt like another sign to me!
Through our office visit, never once did I feel rushed or nervous. She never judged us for our choices as parents, and she always led us into a better path. Because of Jessica our daughter has a chance at a positive life with a promising future and I could not be more happy to have found her. This woman knows her stuff and she actually cares about people. I’ve never met someone in the medica field that I trust more than I trust her. I don’t know what I would do without her, I feel so grateful and I literally cried after our first visit when she gave us answers… and that’s how much I got out of her visit. Happy tears!!! Please don’t ever leave Jessica!!!Thank you Jessica.
