🔬 What the Research Says About Gut Bacteria and PCOS
‍
Studies reveal that people with PCOS often have an imbalanced gut microbiome, with lower microbial diversity and changes in bacterial composition.
‍
Study highlight: A 2020 mini review published in Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology
found that women with PCOS had lower levels of beneficial gut bacteria and increased pro-
inflammatory strains. These changes were present in both lean and obese individuals.​
Source: Reprod Biol Endocrinol. 2020; 18:86.
‍
This suggests that the gut microbiome might influence insulin sensitivity, inflammation, and
even hormone production. The research confirms what my clients experience and I see in
clinic. My clients who complete our Gut Repair Program experience immediate and
long-lasting change by introducing a healthy fibre laden diet and targeted nutritional
supplements and herbs.

👩‍⚕️What Is the Gut Microbiome?

The gut microbiome refers to the trillions of bacteria, fungi, and other microbes that live in the gastrointestinal tract. These microbes help:
- Digest food
- Synthesize vitamins
- Regulate the immune system
- Protect against pathogens

👩‍🏫But there’s more!
Your gut microbiome also communicates with your endocrine system, which produces and regulates hormones throughout your body.

When I help women recover their hormonal balance with food, nutrition and herbal medicine, addressing
gut microbiome balance is an integral part of the strategy.

Natural medicine and Naturopaths have always understood that to optimise your hormonal health, it is crucial to optimise your digestive health. Science is now also revealing the powerful link between the two with more research into the gut microbiome and the way it impacts our hormones.

Thank you to all those who came to our Women’s Health Morning tea and listened to talks on Gut health, Prebiotics, Microbiome testing, hormones and skin health from Eloise Charleson, Natalie Elliott and Michelle Bourke. It was a fun and nurturing morning with practical take-away tips to integrate straight away, new friends as well as delicious gut friendly hot chocolate.

Eloise has been working with Gut and hormonal health for 27 years and started integrating microbiome stool testing 10 years ago.

“The tests available have improved over the 10 years and can be incredibly valuable for addressing acute symptoms as well as establishing a tailored preventative health diet" says Eloise.

When people come to see her who have been suffering from digestive issues for many years and tried numerous diets and strategies she finds that the microbiome test results can help target the exact path for quick resolution of symptoms.

“Some of my clients had become afraid of food as they no longer knew what they could eat without triggering severe discomfort”. If this is the case the microbiome test clarifies which specific prebiotic foods are necessary to transition to a health-promoting gut microbiome. For more information check our website or BOOK an appointment.

Congratulations to those of you who were quick enough to snap up the Gift bags and can enjoy the Gift Voucher towards a Beauty Treatment with Tammy or Verity.

Did you see the interview with our Senior Naturopath and Nutritionist in the Subi Mag? " "It might be those micro moments" she explains, "like a breathing exercise that only lasts a couple of minutes, that help shift the body into a state of rest and repair." Restorative health care is the wisdom of natural medicine.

Do you suffer from Endometriosis?
