Bridging the Gap between Gut Health and Pelvic Health
Most people do not realize how nutrition can either build the bridge or widen the gap between your gut and pelvic health. Emerging research and clinical experience show that gut health and pelvic health are deeply intwined. From bloating and constipation to inflammation and muscle tone, what you eat can directly influence how your pelvic floor feels and functions.
Protein, Magnesium, Healthy Fats, and Hydration are the 4 pillars to supporting gut health and pelvic health.
Protein - supports tissue repair, muscle tone and collagen production.
Magnesium - helps relax muscle tissue, reduce cramping and support regular bowel movements
Healthy Fats - Omega-3’s and monounsaturated fats reduce inflammation, support hormone balance, and improve tissue elasticity.
Hydration - adequate hydration can decrease constipation, decrease bladder irritation, and decrease muscle fatigue.
By focusing on these 4 pillars, you are not just eating for digestion or muscle tone , your are creating a foundation for long-term pelvic health, hormonal balance and whole-body resilience.
