Digestive System Protocol
A.K.A. your second brain protocol

Over 2000 years ago, Hippocrates said, “All disease begins in the gut.”

Now, 2000 years later, doctors, scientists, and researchers are starting to realize just how right he was! Over the past 20 years, research has revealed our gut health is fundamental to our overall health and well-being.

Gut health seems to be a( the top of everyone’s mind. A quick look at Google trends and you will find that the search term ‘best foods for gut health’ had a 350% increase from 20
12 to 2017 in the USA. More and more people are learning that healing our gut will go a long way in healing our various ailments. It has been studies that simply improving the gut bacteria in a patient can help support the health of diabetics, heart health, IBSA, obesity, autoimmune disorders, ADHD, as well as healthy emotions and peace. 

Doctors have now linked over 170 health conditions directly to an unhealthy gut! 

Our gut is often referred to as our little brain or second brain. The technical term for it is the enteric nervous system or ENS. It is comprised of two thin layers that contain more than 100 million nerve cells that line your entire GI (gastrointestinal) tract, from your esophagus all the way down to your rectum. While most focus on only the intestinal tract, it is important to realize that a healthy gut starts in your mouth with your saliva enzymes.

Probiotics are the healthy or good bacterial in your gut., When you are sick, it usually means there is more bad bacteria than good bacteria. Eating foods rich in probiotics is a great way to support the health of good bacteria in your gut. Yogurt, kefir, and sauerkraut are excellent sources, but many people need to supplement with a broader spectrum of healthy probiotics. One of the best broad-spectrum probiotics on the market is Life 9 TM from Yong Living.

Many researchers believe supporting intestinal health and restoring the integrity of the gut wall will be one of the most important goals of medicine in the next 10 years and for good reason!

Our gut is the epicenter for health in our body. If your gut is healthy, so are you! If it’s unhealthy… you are too! Your gut is responsible for:
  • Digestion
  • Vitamin, mineral, and nutrient absorption
  • Protection from infections
  • Metabolism
  • 75% of your Immune system
  • 95% of your serotonin production
These six functions are absolutely fundamental to our overall health and well-being which is why researchers from the Mayo Clinic, Harvard Medical School, Yale, and M.I.T are all saying, “Death begins in your gut!”

Storage
You may create multiple capsules ahead of time or create one each day. Keep in the freezer in a labeled glass container.
 
How long should you use these capsules?
  • Do not take multiple recipes at the same time. Use only one for a couple of days and then rotate through a few to see what works best for your body.
  • There are two types of Vitality line essential oil capsules you may make: daily capsules or bomb capsules.
  • Daily capsules may be created as a recipe states and used for daily support.
  • Bomb capsules may be created using double or triple the recipes to create a ‘bomb’ for your system. A ‘bomb’ is a stronger capsule intended to give more aggressive support. Bombs should only be used 1-2 times over the course of 4-8 hours and only once per month. Please consult your doctor if you are sick. 
  • Daily capsules and bombs are meant to help support your terrain, meaning they strengthen your already healthy systems, protecting them from dipping below the wellness line.
  • Do not take multiple capsules for multiple systems at the same time. Give at least four hours between capsules.
