The gut is our main digestive organ and “second brain.” An imbalanced gut can negatively affect our body’s absorption of nutrients, blood sugar regulation, immunity, and even our mood. And there is a free method to help heal your gut: meditation.Dr. Sunjya K. Schweig is an expert in complex chronic illnesses and a practitioner of integrative and functional medicine for almost three decades. According to his clinical experience, meditation can reduce stress, which in turn has a positive effect on the gut via several pathways. Very importantly, meditation can modulate the gut immune system and systemic inflammation, thus facilitating recovery from gut conditions.
