Dysbiosis: Is Your Gut Garden Overrun with Weeds?

Frequent infections in the sinuses, ears, lungs, skin, bladder, kidney or urinary tract can all be signs of an unbalanced gut microbiome also known as dysbiosis. 

Taking an antibiotic because you have an ear infection may resolve the infection in the short term. 

But it won’t keep it from happening again. 

Using a steroid inhaler because your cold turned into bronchitis or pneumonia should help you today.

But it won’t keep it from happening again next time you catch a cold.

If you have recurring yeast infections taking a course of antifungal meds from your doctor each time might work for a while.

But it’s not going to solve the underlying problem. 

These are all bandaid approaches to treat the symptoms of a larger issue.

Your infections are going to keep coming back unless you get to the root cause of them.

The root cause of recurrent infections is often dysbiosis. 

An imbalance in your gut flora. 

We can think about the gut microbiome as a beautiful garden.

This garden has a variety of colorful flowers.

But like all gardens it is also at risk of growing weeds.

The healthy bacteria that we need in our gut microbiome are the flowers.

The unhealthy organisms that can create major issues for us are the weeds. 

When your garden is left unchecked the weeds can take over and smother the nice flowers. 

If you are someone who struggles with frequent or recurrent infections (anywhere in your body), your garden is likely being taken over by weeds.

The good news is I am a master gardener and I LOVE flowers. 

It’s not too late to pull out the shovel and gloves and clean up the weeds so your flowers can show their beauty.

And YOU can feel your best and avoid those nasty infections.

Let’s clean up your beautiful garden together.
