By Sally Cross, Natural Change Coaching.

Today I am sharing with you how chronic stress can affect our digestive system..

Some of us may not recognise that we are in a state of chronic stress, as the symptoms we experience have become the norm! 


Here we can look at some indicators…


Changes in appetite

Food cravings

Eating disorders

Gastro-intestinal problems: 

Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease(GERD)

Gastritis

Ulcerative Colitis

Irritable Colon

Irritable Bowel Syndrome(IBS)

Dysbiosis (leaky gut)

Microbiome disruption

Nausea

Diarrhoea

Constipation

Stomach ache and cramps


Also there is some research indicating that a highly stressful event can trigger autoimmune conditions like Coeliac Disease and Non-Coeliac gluten sensitivity.


What can we consider to help alleviate stress?


Improve our life/work balance

Consider a Lifestyle check-in

Medicinal herbs for reducing stress and calming gut
