ION*Gut Health
supports the body’s production of beneficial enzymes through redox
signaling (cellular communication).
Those beneficial enzymes support the tight junctions (the seals between cells) in our gut lining – the barrier protecting us from toxic substances like glyphosate and gluten while allowing the entry of beneficial nutrients.
Keeping Your Gut Healthy
It’s a critical barrier to keep strong so that a vibrant microbiome can flourish. Good health depends entirely on gut health because a lot more than digestion happens in the gut. It’s also where proper immune system function begins and the majority of our neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, are created.
Say yes to ION*Gut Health and you are saying yes to optimal gut-brain connectivity and feel-good transmissions, protection from the toxins we face every day in our air, water, and food, immune function, digestive wellness, and supported gluten tolerance.

Power Quotes From The Show
How Will You Use Food To Embody Health?
"We as humans really need to make an intentional choice about what our highest quality of life is and then we can live into that however we decide to embody it. If someone listening to this really believes that their highest quality of life is feeling good, thinking clearly, good body composition, good libido, muscle tone, good sleep, emotional stability, then we need to make choices that support that. Those choices may not always be the same entertainment choices in regards to food that we're used to making. It’s up to us to decide what we want out of this life. What do you want out of this health? Are you going to use food as entertainment, to deal with stress, to get you through moments where you’re bored or uncomfortable or anxious, or are you going to try and use food to embody, create, and manifest this highest level of health that you can in your body?" - Dr. Paul Saladino
The Myths About Meat & Plants
“Red meat and organs, eating ‘nose to tail,’ is something that’s been a part of the human diet for millions of years. It has shaped us as humans, it’s a central part of who we are, and if we don’t do that, we will not obtain optimal health. Eating those foods, well-raised, is integral to our optimal health as humans. It’s always been part of our evolutionary blueprint. Plants do exist on a toxicity spectrum and if we’re struggling, I want to give people tools to understand which ones are the most toxic, least toxic, and then how to leverage that so that they can find their optimal health and solve that quality of life equation for the best answer for them.” - Dr. Paul Saladino
