Five Supplements To Heal the Gut

Article At A Glance:

• Supplements are a powerful addition to quality, toxin-free foods to help individuals and children with autism reach their full potential.
• Probiotics, digestive enzymes, omega 3 fatty acids, L-Glutamine, and collagen protein are 5 supplements that can reduce inflammation and improve gut function.
• The goal is to introduce supplements one at a time to achieve simple, sustainable changes.

In addition to toxin-free, nourishing foods, supplements are critical to fill in the nutritional gaps and help our children get out of survival mode to a place where they can thrive. Here are five specific supplements to support strong gut health:

1. Probiotics

Probiotics are live microorganisms that improve gut health by helping to balance out the good bacteria and reducing inflammation. Aspire Nutrition’s signature product BioHeal is a probiotic that is sugar-free, dairy-free, toxin-free, filler-free, and gluten-free. It also contains 3 million CFUs (colony forming units) from 12 strains to offer comprehensive gut support.

2. Digestive Enzymes

Our bodies contain enzymes that help break down the food that we eat. By giving an added boost of digestive enzymes through supplements, the symptoms of autism can improve because there isn’t inflammation from undigested food crossing into the blood and the brain.

3. Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Omega 3 Fatty Acids are fish oils that reduce inflammation. They occur naturally in some fish and are also available as a fish oil supplement.

4. L-Glutamine

L-Glutamine is an anti-inflammatory amino acid that fixes the leaky gut. It covers the cell walls and strengthens the body’s ability to permit only good bacteria to pass through.

5. Collagen Protein 

Collagen protein is available in either supplement form or bone broth. It effectively decreases gut permeability and gets those tight junctions back to improve the balance of good and bad bacteria.

As we have discussed before, beginning supplements can seem overwhelming and intimidating. The goal is not to do everything at once but to start small and implement sustainable life changes to improve gut health and overall functioning.
