How Variety in Your Microbiome Keeps You Strong

gut health Oct 14, 2025

"Building and protecting diversity in your microbiome is one of the best ways to create lasting health and resilience."

Why Diversity Matters

  • The more diverse your microbiome, the more adaptable and stable it is. 
  • Different microbes perform overlapping jobs - this is called redundancy, which acts like a backup system.
  • Low diversity makes the microbiome fragile and more likely to break down after stress.

What Resilience Looks Like

  • A resilient microbiome can recover after illness, stress, travel, or dietary change.
  • It bends but doesn't break - helping you tolerate more foods, exposures, and challenges without getting sick.
  • Resilience depends on diversity, keystone species, healthy barriers, and strong communication between microbes and your immune system.

What Weakens Resilience?

  • Frequent antibiotics
  • Processed, low-fiber foods
  • Chronic stress and poor sleep
  • Environmental toxins and over-sanitization
  • Lack of exposure to nature, pets, and real food variety

Would you like to explore the diversity of your microbiome? Have you had on-going stress, and haven't been sleeping well?

It could be your gut's warning signs.

As a Functional Diagnostic Nutritional Practitioner, I run functional lab work to help identify HIDDEN stressors and dysfunctions that are downgrading health and creating or contributing toĀ Metabolic Chaosā„¢, which describes what's going on inside that is producing unwanted symptoms.

Once healing opportunities are identified through carefully selected labs and a thorough history, only then can individualized, time-honored natural protocols be recommended that will change how well the body functions. When improvements are made, true healing occurs.

I have 2 coaching opportunities left for the month, at the lowest cost possible.

This 4-month program includes 5 labs (Gut Health, Mucosal Barrier Integrity, Hormone Health, Metabolic Wellness & Food Sensitivity). We'll then develop a full individualized DRESS for Health Success Program for you.

I don't want you to miss this healing opportunity.
