Do You have a leaky gut?!

                                        

Seven Symptoms of Leaky Gut & How To Heal It | PLEIJ Salon + Spa

  Hi There Friendssss!

 Im back at it again! This time discussing the leaky gut syndrome. Honestly Im trying to raise awareness of this syndrome because I believe many may have this undiagnosed condition. Making some simple adjustments to your diet CAN correct this and dare I say it....Even HEAL it! So now that Ive made major claims lets dive right in to the science ( my favorite part) shall we?  Insert diagram below hehe. Im very visual so Id like to provide a visual to assist in the explanation.


Leaky Gut Syndrome: Causes, Symptoms, Foods to Eat & Foods to Avoid |  Medanta



As you can see on the diagram above. Inside of our gutt, there is a microbiome and within that microbiome we have a gut lining. A normal gutt lining has a pretty solid lining and doesn't let anything through into the intestinal walls. When we have a "Leaky gut" it means our gutt lining has been compromised meaning the lining is not secure anymore so particles of undigested food seep through the lining into the intestines which usually cause inflammation. This inflammation then  alerts the immune system and provokes adverse effects in defense to the inflammation to the abnormal issue occurring within your gutt. This then causes many side effects. I will insert a diagram below explaining this further.

The good news is that there is hope! This can be rectified with the right approach. We have to begin by taking out inflammatory foods such as gluten, dairy, sugar and any additional food intolerances we may have. This is essential to the healing and can not be ignored. So this is my first step to healing. Add fermented foods such as apple cider vinegar and Kimchi or pickles to the diet. Add healthy fats such as Avacados, Fatty fish, olive oil. Lastly Probiotics and probiotics and postbiotics will definitely be needed for repair. L-glutamine and Zinc are essential for healing as well to repair the gut flora.

Symbiotic Smoothiee!



Good Morning friends!


Happy first day of December! New month, fresh new start for new beginnings! Today I really want to discuss the power of a symbiotic diet. Symbiotic organisms are basically two living organism working together or living together in the same environment. As we all know as the discussion of the microbiome has become very popular in the last couple of years. Concerning our gut health microbiome will affect our overall well being. In this microbiome we have both good bacteria and bad bacteria living amongst each other. There is also neutral bacteria that can be influenced by the majority of bacteria in your gut flora. We all heard of the importance of having probiotics in your system. Now pre-biotics have come into discussion as well. Pre biotics are said to be even more essential than probiotics due to the fact that prebiotics work as a fertilizer i your gut flora and assist in creating more probiotics in your gut microbiome. Once the Fertilizer has worked if you implement a good probiotic, then you'll be looking at an awesome digestive system. Having great digestion is so crucial because it is the way we excrete toxins from our body. If our bodies fail to excrete the toxins this way, then it will find other (not so ideal) outlets for example your skin. Ill dedicate an other post concerning that.






Well after that in depth explanation of the power of symbiotics and incorporating them into your regimen. Now id like to speak about my symbiotic smoothie, which is why im sure you've all tuned in. 

So here we go! Just a reminder this smoothie will incorporate probiotcs and prebiotics to improve your gut flora and microbiome. This smoothie should be taken on an empty stomach upon waking up. The reason why is because when sleeping you are in a fasted state. One you break the fast with beakfast....Hence the name break-fast hehe I know all these years it went over my head too lol When breaking the fast the first thing that hits your gut flora has such a great impact so its best to take this smoothie on an empty stomach for the best results.







Symbiotic smoothie recipe..... Blueberry Coconut Smoothie!

1 handful of blueberries

1 handful of spinach

1 cup coconut water

1 cup coconut milk

2 tsp vanilla extract

2 tsp of Psyllium (prebiotic)

2 tsp of probiotic (glow powder from beauty chef) 

(any powder probiotic of your choice) ( to choose a good probiotic please check the amount of strains contained inside and make sure to refrigerate it as well.)


Optional add ins:

Vanilla plant based protein powder of your choice... to make a protein shake


This smoothie should contain ideally no added sugar or milk since bacteria overgrowth could occur. To keep optimal probiotcs in your system, please follow keto diet for about 14 days while taking this smoothie first thing in the morning. You will see optimized digestion along with glowing skin. This regimen could also be seen as a 14 day detox.


 As always, I love to hear from you! Share with all who you think this post will help. Feel free to comment, subscribe, or like! Wishing you and your family peace,hope, and most importantly love!

Sleep Matters

Good Night Loves!






 Life is great to live and be in the moment and sure being active and lively has its effects but something is often times overlooked is our sleep cycle. Yes, our sleep cycle! With the popular concept of "Ill sleep when I'm dead" or the ever so popular  "Yolo" we forsook sleeping in order to do other things. Little did we know how devastating this is for our bodies. Yes, I used the word devastating! It truly is, there are booming studies as researchers are taking a deeper look into the circadian rhythm of our bodies and how it affects out body. There are natural behavioral changes that we go through throughout the 24hr period. The majority of us are always plugged in and glancing at screens all day long. Its become such a habit to stay connected, however the blue light on our devices may be altering our sleep patterns. I have noticed how hard it is for me to wind down and actually fall asleep. I really struggle with receiving a good nights rest. Experts recommend that we should be sleeping about 7-9 hours daily. I cant speak for everyone but I know for a fact Im lucky if I get 6 hours of sleep. 

So first things first, lets start to break this down....



What is a Circadian Rhythm?



Circadian Rhythm runs on a 24hr schedule. It focuses on how light naturally affects the body. The name originates from the latin phrase "Circa diem"  translating into the "around the day". In 1729 a scientist named Jean Jacques d' Ortous de Mairan conducted an experiment on a Mimosa plant in a light controlled room and saw how the plant grew and reacted to light controlled settings. It is the same for all living creatures. Our cells run on a biological clock that responds to light. The study of this is called chronobiology. The research from these new studies are revealing to us how deeply our sleep cycles greatly affect our well being. Now since everyone is biologically different, everyone circadian rhythm will be slightly different but generally its similar considering its affected by the light. Considering that its vital that we understand that we will need consciously start winding down and creating a sleep routine to prepare us for a better nights rest. I've inserted a diagram that demonstrates the 24hr cycle.




Create a Night time routine!

1. Start dimming the lights- 2hrs before actually going to sleep

2. No device usage- Start restricting the usage on your devices such as tvs, laptops, phones. The reason is because it emits blue light which will also affect your melatonin levels impeding enhanced sleep.

3. Stop physical activity- about 2 hrs before bed

4. Early Dinners- Try to have dinner in the 5pm to 7pm window to allow your body time to digest and breakdown the food any consumption of food afterwards will disturb your sleep cycle.

5. Take a hot shower- As the day ends our body temperature tends to cool down so by having a hot shower you raise your balance your body temperature therefor enhancing your sleep.



Benefits of sleeping an adequate amount of sleep

1. Improve immune system

2. Promote weight loss

3. Reduce risk of illness and disease

4. Increase brain function

5. Improve your mood 

6. Reduce inflammation

7. Balances hormones



Ok guys and gals thats all I got for today, deff hope this was it for you! Share with your loved ones and share any feedback with me in the comments. Enjoy the rest of your day and work on improving your sleep cycle!

The Importance Of Achieving Hormone Balance

 


Helloooo there Friends!


Hormones have often times been overlooked when considering our health. Mainly because of its complexity. As our studies and research advances, so does our understanding of more complex human functions. New studies are showing the importance of achieving hormone balance and how it may be impacting our health goals. There are several factors that can throw your hormones off balance. The reason why this is important is because it could be delaying your weight loss goals or causing other issues to occur such as the following:

You will experience the following if your hormones are out of balance:

1.Acne
2.Insomnia
3.Excessive sweating
4. Weight gain
5. Changes in heart rate
6. Mood Swings
7. Fatigue
8. Irregularities in menstruation


The following are some of the hormones in your system.


Hormones :
1.Insulin- Allows cells to take blood sugar for energy or storage. It is also the main hormone for fat storage. Especially if you are insulin resistant.
2. Leptin- Other wise known as the "Satiety hormone" It reduces appetite and makes you feel full or satisfied.
3. Ghrelin- Other wise known as the "Hunger hormone" when your stomach is empty it release a message to the hypothalamus indicating you should eat.
4. Cortisol- Otherwise known as the "stress hormone" mainly because its released when your under stress.
5. Estrogen- The main female sex hormone produced by the ovaries used for regulating the female reproductive system.
6. Neuropeptide- Hormone produced by the brain and the nervous system
7. Glucagon- Hormone produced by the gut when nutrients are deposited into the intestines.
8. Cholecystokinin- A satiety hormone produced by cells in gut
9. Peptide YY- Gut hormone that controls appetite
10. Testosterone- Male major sex hormone
11. Androgen- Hormones contribute to the growth and reproduction
12. Growth Hormone- Controls the bodies growth
13. Melatonin- Regulates sleep and wake cycle.
14. Serotonin-Key hormone in stabilizing our mood, well being and happiness



Balancing your hormones is absolutely essential for overall well being. It is more common for the hormones to be out of balance than to maintain them in balance. Some cause for this is stressful situations,lack of sleep, thyroid issues, unhealthy diet, pregnancy, menopause. Hormones are a delicate part of the endocrine system and the chemistry of it can easily be altered. 






In order to achieve balance with regulating your hormones we can to first consider what affects the hormones. We can begin with nutrition. It is essential to eat enough protein and healthy fats with every meal. A helpful side note is that consuming eggs has so many nutritional components that will make your body very happy. Daily exercise will also assist in regulating your hormones.Skip on the sugar, minimizing your sugar intake will assist in not having insulin spike and mood irregularities not to mention bacteria loves to grow on sugary food and drinks. Consider trying out the Keto diet for about 3 weeks and see if your seeing an improvement overall. Its also super important to prioritize your sleep schedule. Try to get 7-9 hours of sleep daily. I know its challenging but lack of sleep really does a number and get your hormones all kinds of wacky.








Well thats it for now, Im going to be starting a series on hormone health soon! I've become very passionate on this subject and I appreciate all your support and love! As always feel free to share this content with those who you feel it will help! Dont forget to comment down below or reach out and connect as I love hearing from your all!

Rid yourself of all the toxins!

 

Hi Guys & Gals!


Something that is unavoidable are the constant toxins that our bodies are repeatedly exposed to on a daily basis. Toxins are defined as an antigenic poison or venom derived from a microorganism causing disease. We become exposed to toxins in various ways whether it be externally or internally. Externally exposure can occur through food additives, pesticides, various chemicals, tobacco products, and pollution. External exposure can occur in various forms such as application to the skin, however the majority of toxin enter our bodies through inhalation or otherwise known as breathing. Due to this, its very important to be aware of what we are surrounded by. A fun fact is that the majority of beauty products that have fragrance have loads of chemicals that FDA does not have to list. This is a perfect example of how toxins can secretly enter our bodies. As stated by the above by the definition of the word the reason it is essential to avoid these toxins is that, these toxins can cause disease and illness within our bodies. Internally toxins can be cause through bodily waste, hormone fluctuations and stress. When speaking about detoxification, its important to say that the liver is the main organ that excretes the toxins from our bodies. Therefor making it one of the most important organ as its function is crucial for our overall well being. Detoxification is an essential bodily process on a cellular level so that our bodies can function properly. Although our bodies do have the ability to do this on its own we can aid the process through doing a cleanse or a detoxification for about a week. Ideally a detox should be conducted for roughly a week. 



What are the Benefits of conducting a 1 Week detox!

1. Weight loss! - Once you get rid of all the unnecessary items in your body, not only will you feel better but you will also feel lighter.

2. Balance PH levels - Reaching a Ph balance is very important with weight loss because if your levels are low or acidic than it can result in our body storing acid in our fat cells in turn creating more fat cells which is the exact opposite of what we are looking to do.

3. Be disease free! - As stated above the entire purpose of ridding our bodies of toxins is to be HEALTHY! As toxins promote disease and illness.

4. Improve digestive system- Toxins can disrupt our microbiome cause illness such as diabetes, obesity, allergies, and gastrointestinal problems.

5. Improve Immunity!- Similarly as we steer clear of  these toxins we also improve our own immunity functions which aid us In preventing disease and illness.

6. Slow the aging process- Toxins do a number on your face and cells so by being aware of them you will in turn look younger.

7. Improve the quality of life-  Less toxins means less disease which means a happier life

8.Clear Skin!-  Less toxins means beautiful skin!

9. Mental and emotional clarity!- With less of the gunk in in your body, everything will be clearer.


TOXINS PUT UNNECESSARY STRESS UNTO THE BODY, SO DETOXIFICATION IS IDEAL!






Detox methods!

1. Drink loads of Water!

2. Lemon Water!

3. No Sugar

4. Avoid processed foods!

5. Eat Antioxidants rich foods

6. Eat food rich in probiotics or take a supplement

7. Sweat it out!

8. Epsom salt bath!

9. 3 day water fasting

10. 3 / 5 day juicing fast ( Juices must be sugar free, meaning no fruit)


Now your on to live your best life toxin free! Live a healthy and beautiful life and remember to take it one step at a time! Be easy and breezy! We as always share and spread the word with friends and family. Comment/like/subscribe!

Is Fish healthier?





 Hi Loves! 


I have to admit, I was inspired by earth day.! A while ago during my high school years I viewed a video demonstrating the animal cruelty towards the animals in the food industry and it deeply impacted me enough to become vegetarian for a few years. The majority of people who turn vegetarian will decide to go down that route due to the health benefits that they would like to witness. The majority of people actually have a harder time digesting animal protein and also many experts have claimed that the high stress environment and poor conditions these animals are exposed to deeply affects them and considering we then ingest them. We would be consuming all of the toxicity the animal just underwent. 





For many years I personally believed that fish was the healthier route and that it was fine because fish do not feel pain or so I believed. Recent studies have revealed that fish do indeed feel pain and mourn each others death. The fishing industry is under immense scrutiny due to the recent claims that they are overfishing and destroying the oceans habitat. The majority of our carbon stream from the oceans so with this new knowledge I was re-inspired to go down the vegetarian route but due to my personal faith beliefs and health issues do not permit me to fully carry this out. I have recently discovered alternate route to consuming animal products. I always knew about veggie burgers however I didn't know that they had also developed something similar for fish! I would love to encourage everyone to decrease their animal consumption as their main source of protein. Actually considering our oceans are so polluted due to the trash just being thrown into the oceans now among other pollutants in the ocean. Fish is actually not that healthy or safe for consumption. So why not give the alternative options being plant based. I personally will be embarking on this journey as well. I'll probably document how it went for me as well. Lets works together to create a better world to live in. Lets dream for a moment... A world of peace, gentleness, kindness, empathy, and several actions done in love and consideration for one and other! They say it all begins with the person in the mirror so as our friend Michael said "Lets make that change!" Well its been great as always! Be sure to follow, like, subscribe and spread the word to all your loved ones!

Walk your way to Weight loss!

 

Greetings Friends!


Back again with another simple suggestion for us to spring into action together! Wellness is definitely not easy however even one step along the right path can lead to a beautiful journey. Similarly enough walking can actually lead to weight loss! Yes I said it! Well typically the common concept has long been if you want to lose weight, put on your running shoes and chose your favorite playlist and get outside and go running. While Cardio does have benefits and I do enjoy running form time to time but new research has shown that walking may actually be just as beneficial with less impact and strain on your body! This was first introduced by Dr. Lee who discussed of "Manpo-Kei" which translates to 10,000 steps! In Japan the average person walks about 10,000 steps a day. As we know Japan is largely being studied since they have so many centenarians which makes it a well known blue zone. The more recent studies are indicating that 10,000 steps can lead to weight loss, stress relief, improved glucose levels, and reduced blood pressure. Walking same as with running will assist your body in burning overall body fat! So in America the average person walks about 2,000 to 3,000 steps a day, by increasing our steps we can then in turn burn more calories. 10,000 steps is equivalent to 5 miles which burns and estimated amount of 2000/ 3500 calories. 3,500 calories is equivalent to 1 pound of fat! This means you will see an average of about 1 pound weightless a week if you're consistent with this. Now to walk about 10,000 steps it takes about 40 minutes of walking although you can try and achieve this goal just by being more mindful throughout your day of your goal! This is just another excellent example of a simple and sustainable habit that can lead to lasting and satisfactory results! 10k is our goal and ideally once this step is a habit we can definitely increase our wellness routine to something more challenging but one step at a time! 


As always this has been my pleasure! Please be sure to like and subscribe and spread the word! Support is always needed on our wellness journey, so be sure to find a community with the same goals in mind as you!

Spring Water Fasting Challenge!

 Hi Friends!

Fasting really has been a revolutionary journey and the most simple but Pro-active habit that we can incorporate for our health. I'm a big fan of water fasting because of its healing properties. I've had my own personal journey with it. I will upload a vlog and progress pictures soon. Today I just wanted to encourage everyone to try it. I know a lot of people are familiar with intermittent fasting however Waster fasting has a lot more health benefits. Specifically the 72hrs water fasting is immensely great for the overall healing of our bodies. I had such a great experience with the fasting period that I decided to start incorporating it into my regimen. I will now do it once a month. I really do believe its great to put into your wellness regimen. 

Below is a chart of the hourly timeline of what will occur as your proceed with your fast for motivation to pull through!
