Quick answer: The Blueprint Gut Health Support Program is a functional medicine support program at Advantage Health Center in Jordan, MN, guided by Nurse Sarah. It follows three steps, heal, detox, and rebuild, to restore and optimize the function of every system in your body through the gut.
Why Gut Health Matters
In today's fast paced world, stress, too much sugar, a diet low in fiber, excessive drinking, regular use of NSAIDs like ibuprofen, and food sensitivities can all contribute to leaky gut. When the gut lining is weakened, incompletely digested nutrients, toxins, bacteria, and waste can leak through the intestines and into the bloodstream.
Those foreign substances can trigger an immune response in the body, including inflammatory and allergic reactions such as respiratory and digestive issues, headaches, joint pain, skin conditions, and more.
Signs Your Gut May Need Support
Frequent bloating, gas, or discomfort after meals
Digestion that feels unpredictable from day to day
Aches, stiffness, or puffiness that may be linked to inflammation
Feeling tired or sluggish even when you sleep enough
Suspecting certain foods do not agree with you
Headaches, joint pain, or skin conditions that keep coming back
How the Program Works
1. Heal
First, we focus on removing what robs your body of nutrient absorption and begin to seal your gut lining, so your gut barrier is strong enough to handle a detox.
2. Detox
Next, we clear out the invaders that have been causing the fire, including underlying infections and environmental toxins, and bind them so they are removed from the body instead of recirculating into your bloodstream. Along the way, we support your two key stress hormones, cortisol and insulin.
3. Rebuild
Finally, we rebuild your microbiome by restoring probiotics, balancing the acidity of your stomach (which your body needs to absorb protein, calcium, B vitamins, and iron), and supporting the IgG antibodies that help regulate a normal immune response.
