Have you ever heard the phrase "does not kill you will make you stronger"? In fact, according to Dr. Kaitlyn Clarke, a masseur and functional dietitian at the Urban Wellness Clinic, especially when our body (and digestive system) responds to stress.

So a thousand years ago, if you were chased by bears, Your body's ability to produce cortisol will help you escape the bear (cough, so it won't kill you), it will help you increase your overall tolerance for stress next time (making you stronger).
This question? Now the bear is being replaced by constant work emails and always-on expectations - leading to stressful situations, nature affirmed never intended. “However, in today's world, our modern, high-speed lifestyle creates a chronic stressful environment,” Dr. Clark said, which means cortisol overload.
"Prolonged stress can trigger an immune response in the intestines and brain," Dr. Clarke explained. "[This] also changes the intestinal environment or microbiome by promoting excessive growth of bad bacteria, reducing digestive enzyme production and lack of motility."
Fortunately, digestive problems have been created through the system. Five simple steps can alleviate this stress overload, Dr. Clark likes to call it five R.

Step 2 - Replace: Then, you must replace the enzymes and secretions required for proper digestion, such as hydrochloric acid and bile. Taking digestive enzyme supplements can help digestion return to normal.
Step 3 - Re-inoculation: Next, you can re-plant the beneficiaries to solve the bad bacterial bacteria that may overgrow. Dr. Clark recommends using at least 25 billion CFU of high-yield bacteria from high-quality sources, such as Renew Life's $3 billion additional probiotics, which produce three times more bacteria and strains than the main probiotics.

Zinc, l-glutamine and vitamins A, C and E all help to cure the intestinal lining.
Step 5 - Rebalancing: By assessing your overall state of your overall stress level and looking for ways to lower them. “Considering ot her lifestyle factors can enhance or ease your stress levels,” Dr. Clarke added. "Make sure you get enough sleep quality, keep plenty of water, and exercise!" Oh, all these work emails? Remember to reduce the time on your screen and open up time for you. (Your instincts will thank you.)
