Description
Are You Ready to Take Your Gut Back?
When the pandemic hit in 2020, my herbalism education business took off. I was doing weekly, sometimes daily, livestreams explaining health and educating people on the current news of the pandemic. People needed to know what complicated terminology meant, how viruses spread, and how disease works. Herbalism played a key role in helping keep people healthy and thwarting the grip of disease. But there were still some who succumbed to it even with herbal preventatives. Why?
As I began praying to the Lord in 2022/2023, during a season of rest, I felt firmly that God wanted me to start viewing health from the inside out. I knew this already. I knew that what you put into your mouth affects your body. But I simply didn’t know how important your gut really was in regard to health.
All health and disease stem from the gut. Between 70% and 80% of your immune system is located in your gut. If your gut is out of order or leaky, you cannot remain in a state of health. The herbs and vitamins that you take cannot properly be absorbed into your body. In which case, it doesn’t matter what you take as a preventative…it won’t work efficiently if your gut is out of order.
This really hit me hard. For years I had been an advocate for herbalism, but not giving the full picture to my clients and those who trusted me to educate them. And so, here I am, aiming to remedy that.
My name is Amy K. Fewell. I am an author, herbalist, homesteader, and kingdom builder. Not coincidentally, all health and disease can be filtered through the lens of the word of God. We are called to be healthy. We are not called to live in a state of disease. Our bodies are a temple, afterall. How can we further the kingdom if we are debilitated, sick, and exhausted?
The goal of this book is to teach you all about your gut, how it works, why it works, and why it doesn’t work. It’s to show you that if you can fully heal your gut, you can be set free from things you’ve prayed to be set free from your entire life. Have you ever considered that sometimes we aren’t set free from ailments because of our lifestyle? Why heal something if we’re just going to continue living the same way? God wouldn’t be very honored in that, would He? It would give us a foothold to call Him a fraud.
As we go through the text of this book, my hope is that your eyes will be opened to why your gut is one of the most important things in your body. If we can heal the gut, we can heal our entire body. If we can heal the gut, we can have mental clarity and live a better life. If we can heal the gut, we can teach others how to heal, too.
There are darker days ahead of us in this world. Would you like to be unhealthy and laying in bed when the next pandemic hits? Or would you like to have a rock solid gut and immune system that keeps you healthy and allows you to help others too? I know which one I prefer…
