World Digestive Health Day 2026 falls on Friday 29 May. It is the one day a year set aside for gut health, a subject that often gets brushed aside. It exists to get digestive problems talked about openly, and to ease the embarrassment that keeps so many people quiet. This...
For most people, dairy does not appear to cause gut inflammation. It tends to become a problem only if you have lactose intolerance, a milk protein allergy, or a gut condition such as IBD or IBS. In those cases, dairy can trigger real digestive symptoms and, for some people, add...
World IBD Day is the international day of awareness for Crohn's and ulcerative colitis, taking place each year on 19 May. It exists to give visibility to one of the most misunderstood chronic illnesses in modern medicine, an illness that affects around 10 million people worldwide and more than 500,000...
Yes, mindfulness can improve your gut health. The main reason why is that your gut and brain are in a constant two-way conversation through the gut-brain axis. Practices like slow breathing, meditation, and mindful eating activate the vagus nerve, lower cortisol, and shift your body out of fight-or-flight into rest-and-digest,...
Anxiety makes your gut health worse because the brain and gut are linked by a two-way communication network called the gut-brain axis. When you feel anxious, your brain sends distress signals that change how your gut moves, weaken its lining, throw off your gut bacteria, and make you more sensitive...
Breathwork can improve your gut health. Research suggests that slow, controlled breathing activates your vagus nerve, which switches your body from stress mode into digest mode. This helps lower cortisol that damages your gut lining, while your diaphragm physically massages the digestive organs beneath it. During my recovery from Crohn's...
Plant-based proteins support gut health because they come packaged with prebiotic fibre and resistant starch that animal proteins lack. These compounds feed beneficial gut bacteria and studies suggest they may help produce short-chain fatty acids that strengthen your gut lining and reduce inflammation. The best plant protein sources for gut...
Yes, your gut has its own circadian rhythm. It follows a roughly 24-hour cycle that determines when it digests food, absorbs nutrients, produces enzymes, repairs its lining and rests. This clock operates independently from the one in your brain, and it's set primarily by when you eat rather than when...
Acid reflux is when stomach acid rises back into the oesophagus through a weakened valve called the lower oesophageal sphincter (LES). When this happens frequently or causes tissue damage, it is classified as GERD. Common triggers include caffeine, alcohol, fatty foods, smoking and chronic stress. Natural management strategies include dietary...
There are two main types of Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. If you are living with IBD, like I did for 16 years, you are most likely dealing with one of these two. There are also two additional types worth knowing about, Indeterminate Colitis and Microscopic Colitis....
Diarrhoea is the passing of loose or watery stools three or more times in a 24-hour period. It is a symptom, not a disease. Something underneath is driving it, whether that is an infection, a medication, food, stress or a chronic condition. Globally, diarrhoeal diseases caused an estimated 1.17 million...
Constipation is the infrequent or difficult passing of stools, typically defined as fewer than three bowel movements per week. It is one of the most common digestive complaints worldwide, affecting an estimated 2% to 27% of the adult population depending on how it is measured. Yet most people either suffer...
Gut inflammation is more than an upset stomach. It is your immune system flooding your intestinal lining with white blood cells in response to a perceived threat. These cells release inflammatory compounds called cytokines that damage tissue, disrupt your gut barrier, and interfere with normal digestion. When this response won't...
Peristalsis is the series of involuntary, wave-like muscle contractions that propel food, liquid, and waste through your entire digestive system. These contractions are coordinated by your enteric nervous system, a network of over 100 million nerve cells that operates independently of your conscious control. What makes peristalsis fascinating is that...
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) affects 11% of people globally, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood conditions in medicine. Your gut looks perfectly normal on every scan and test, yet you're living with daily symptoms that doctors struggle to explain. At its core, IBS is due to a gut-brain...
