Gut Health: Foundation to Your Health

At Water's Edge, we consider your gut function the foundation of your health. All the body's organ systems, including hormone, immune, and neurological, are dependent on a properly functioning digestive system with good flora balance, low inflammation, and optimal absorption and elimination.

Causes of Digestive Symptoms

There are many reasons you may be experiencing digestive symptoms. Finding the exact cause of your symptoms is essential for treatment. Some causes of digestive symptoms include:

Food allergies
Food sensitivities
Low acid production
Low enzyme production
SIBO – Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth
Yeast overgrowth
Parasite infection
Poor immune function
Leaky Gut Syndrome
Celiac disease
Chemical sensitivities
Structural issues (gallstones, strictures, hernia, etc.)

Treatment of Digestive Disorders

We use advanced gastrointestinal testing to determine the cause(s) of each individual's symptoms.

Then we focus on dietary changes, digestive tract healing, and restoration to return to normal function in the digestive tract. When we heal the gut, we find that many symptoms resolve. This allows us to move forward with fewer obstacles and less medication needed to reach your health goals.
