Vogue spoke to a medical scientist and public health nutritionist on the key signs to look out for when it comes to identifying an unhealthy gut.
7 Signs You Have an Unhealthy Gut“When it comes to gut health, the first thing to understand is whether you’re suffering from constipation or diarrhea, as both are signs that something’s not going well,” says Dr. Amati. Symptoms like these can indicate that the gut is having an issue processing food or there is a microbial imbalance.
If you are suffering from any of the above symptoms for a prolonged period of time, make sure you see your GP. Dr. Amati also recommends getting more mindful about your diet and how it impacts your day-to-day functioning. Keeping a food diary is a really great way to start analyzing your intake, whether that’s taking notes in a book or recording via photos on your phone—whatever is easiest. “Just make sure that you record it, along with how you felt that day,” she says. “Try keeping a diary for at least a week—it usually reveals a lot about what might be going on.
“One of the first things we would recommend, especially if it’s an irritable bowel syndrome related disorder, is following a low FODMAP or elimination diet, which can be really helpful to understand what it is that’s triggering the response,” she says. “This is really best done with a professional because ‘elimination diet’ does not mean removing it for life, but rather about removing or decreasing foods for a period of time, then slowly reintroducing them to see what happens.
