Insomnia, Sleep And Gut Microbiome

Are You struggling to sleep? Have you considered the connection between gut health and insomnia? There is a relationship between your quality of sleep and gut microbiome health. You might even have unwanted intestinal visitors who need to be evicted!

Not only does the health of your microbiome affect how you sleep, but it is also affected by the lunar cycle and events such as the recent supermoon.

What Take-Away Foods Did To My Microbiome

After travelling for the past six weeks going in and out of hotels in the UK and the UAE, plus jet lag, I arrived back in Australia to find that the jet lag tricks (like our Rejuv Bedtime Blend and making my Rejuv Moon Milk) that I had successfully used in the past weeks prior, were no longer working.

So I ‘called myself into my office’ and completed a urine test on myself, and there it was, staring back at me clear as day… I had a parasite (and a little candida overgrowth). I wasn’t surprised.

After defaulting to salads as my grab-and-go options they are simply not washed as well as what I eat at home (I mainly choose organic and always soak fruit and vegetables in apple cider vinegar and water to kill off any parasite eggs) increasing my risk of parasite overgrowth. 

I  must say I felt great travelling and loved seeing all of my dear clients and colleagues, but it wasn’t until this full moon hit that I had the ‘a-ha’ moment! Add to this our celebrations of my son’s and husband’s birthdays. Eating cake and drinking champagne was the perfect combination to feed my intestinal visitors.

Parasites & The Full Moon

The thing with parasites is that they reproduce and hatch over a full moon due to the drop in melatonin and surge in serratonin. This is why many of us also find it hard to sleep when the man in the moon shines down on us, bursting through our curtains.

Dealing With The Parasites To Heal The Gut

So what is my plan? It’s pretty simple… tomorrow I will start on my Gut Healing Protocol to kill off all parasite overgrowth, candida and fungus. This will also have a positive effect on my immune system. Starting the Gut Healing Pack within the next two weeks is the most effective because of the recent full moon. 

I will keep you posted on my progress, and you can also see this blog that I wrote with lots of foods to clear parasites alongside the Gut Healing Pack. I’ve done many Gut Healing Protocols over the years. I treat these the same way as servicing my car… your gut also needs regular service.

I have tried only to use foods to heal my gut but with limited success. When you combine herbs with the diet, you get fast and effective good results. 

A Pack To Restore Gut Health

Here is a glimpse of what is in the Gut Healing Pack and how it works. This pack is excellent for anyone who wants to cleanse and detox or is suffering from IBS, bloating, wind, constipation, leaky gut, eating disorders, digestive disorders or if you’re having trouble losing weight. This pack also positively impacts your mood, energy levels and immune system.

The Gut Healing Pack includes a parasite cleanse, best started two weeks before the next full moon.

We at Rejuv Wellness have been using this protocol for many years with great success. We have recommended it to several clients over the years. Not only are IBS symptoms reduced, but many have stopped using anti-depressant and anxiety medications due to their healed gut microbiome.
