Let’s Talk Gut Health
I want to talk all about gut health because it is one trendy topic right now. We’re seeing it pop up all over the health and wellness world, and that’s with GOOD reason!
Research continues to emerge demonstrating that the bacteria in our gut plays an important, if not VITAL, role in our physical AND emotional well-being.
And we mean VITAL, because improving the health of your gut may help improve all the stuff we struggle most with:
• Gas
• Bloating
• Irregular bowel movements
• Cramping
• Indigestion
• Weight loss
• Poor sleep quality
• Low energy
• The appearance of your skin
• Mood
• Reduce inflammation in your body
Doesn’t this sound AMAZING? So if you’ve been meaning to get the lowdown on why gut health is so important, and how you can use Autumn Calabrese’s upcoming program, The 4 Week Gut Protocol, to feel great again, then let’s keep on reading!
If you’re dealing with stomach woes, you’re not the only one. Things like stress, sleep, exercise, and the food you eat can all impact the health of your gut.
Beachbody Super Trainer and nutrition expert Autumn Calabrese is no stranger to tummy troubles.
She’s struggled with the issue over the years — but after much trial and error and working closely with her doctor, she’s finally learned how to uncover her “food sensitivities.”
And now you can, too.
It’s simple: Isolate foods that might be causing digestive sensitivities. Add in no-impact exercise.
Combining her firsthand experience and expertise, Autumn found a way to tackle her physically and emotionally challenging gastrointestinal issues while tying in a workout schedule that’s easy to follow and easy on the joints.
It all starts with The 4 Week Gut Protocol — a comprehensive nutrition program that shows you how the food you eat can impact your gut health and how much your gut health impacts your overall health.
The program can help you discover foods that are impacting your digestive health and give you the tools to help overcome discomfort.
Because studies show gentle exercise can help positively impact your gut health, Autumn also created 4 Weeks for Every Body to enhance the benefits of The 4 Week Gut Protocol.
Many people have gut issues without realizing it so Autumn encourages everyone to try The 4 Week Gut Protocol, and pair it with 4 Weeks for Every Body to minimize the impact on their joints.
Together, The 4 Week Gut Protocol and 4 Weeks for Every Body can help give you the tools to support your gut-healthy lifestyle and create a balanced food-and-fitness routine that’s right for you.
The 4 Week Gut Protocol
What is The 4 Week Gut Protocol?
The 4 Week Gut Protocol is a unique, comprehensive nutrition program designed to help promote overall gut health, as well as isolate the most common foods and ingredients that can cause gastric distress and undermine your health and well-being.
What should I expect from this program?
Autumn walks you through step-by-step instructional videos to show you exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to do it in a way that isolates the potentially problematic foods.
Over the course of 4 weeks, she’ll show you how to remove 7 characteristically troublesome foods so you can slowly but effectively remove, replace, and rebalance.
Who should do this program?
Anyone with digestive issues can benefit from The 4 Week Gut Protocol.
Will I receive recipes and advice on what foods to eat?
Of course! You’ll get food lists to make staying on track seamless, 8 program-friendly recipe videos and PDFs, and weekly tips to encourage and educate along the way.
Which supplements should I be taking?
Autumn suggests Beachbody Optimize for digestive enzymes that help support nutrient absorption and bioavailability.
The pre- and probiotic Beachbody Revitalize to help support beneficial flora in the gut, and Vegan Shakeology — all taken daily to help you get the most out of The 4 Week Gut Protocol.
These supplements can help support digestive health and help the body maintain the right environment for healthy intestinal flora.
Should I exercise while doing this program?
Research suggests that working out can positively affect gut health and doing so during The 4 Week Gut Protocol can help enhance your results, but it’s not required.
To avoid overtaxing the body, Autumn created the no-impact fitness program 4 Weeks for Every Body that can be done by itself or paired with The 4 Week Gut Protocol.
4 Weeks for Every Body
What kinds of workouts are in the program?
4 Weeks for Every Body is the perfect fitness companion to Autumn’s 4 Week Gut Protocol — a no-impact program that makes consistency and results achievable for EVERY BODY.
While exercise is recommended when you take on 4 Week Gut Protocol, it shouldn’t be so rigorous that it interferes with your body’s work in helping your gut.
Autumn expertly crafted these workouts around exertion, not impact, to fit your gut fix journey.
You’ll do a total of 16 workouts — 4 workouts per week for 4 weeks — all under 30 minutes (including the warm-up and cooldown!).
There are also 4 optional indoor cycling rides that you can integrate with your regular workouts.
The focus is on eccentric (lengthening) exercise that leverages the benefits of time under tension to maximize results.
Every minute is purposeful and effective — and designed to complement the results you can achieve with The 4 Week Gut Protocol.
Who Is 4 Weeks for Every Body for?
4 Weeks for Every Body is for anyone who’s looking for a manageable way to get results — a simple yet incredibly effective fitness program that’s easy on the joints.
The workouts make it easy to maintain consistency with no-frills, no-impact exercises that help your overall strength, mobility, and vitality, so EVERY BODY can get results.
What equipment will I need?
You’ll need a pair of dumbbells, and a core ball is recommended.
Here’s the deal…
Research is beginning to reveal that the gut could impact aspects of your health that seem to have nothing at all to do with your digestion, such as the function of your immune system, your brain and heart health, your weight, your mood, your skin, your sleep quality, and potentially even more.
This right here, is why there is soooo much buzz lately about gut health. We now know that what we eat, the amount of stress we experience, how much sleep we get, etc., all contributes to either us having a really healthy gut, or the opposite. And if we have the opposite, and we’re experiencing less than desired health issues or body concerns, it MAY be connected to your gut.
There’s a lot to learn here when it comes to our gut, brain, and how it affects our overall health. This is why Super Trainer Autumn Calabrese, has taken all of this confusing information, and created The 4 Week Gut Protocol specifically to help all of us understand our gut, improve the health of it, and possibly by connection, improve other conditions that plague us.
