Vicky Countess Coaching Asks: Is Your Gut Annoying?

"Can we talk about something frustrating for a second?”, asks Vicky Countess, founder of Vicky Countess Coaching.

You're eating right.

Calcium, magnesium, K2, collagen: you've got the whole bone-loving lineup dialed in.

And yet the results aren't quite matching the effort.

“If that's you, I want you to know that's not in your head, and it's not a diet problem,” she said.

It might be a gut problem.

Vicky knows because she is dealing with one herself right now (the bloating, the digestive chaos, all of it).

Ask her husband, he's tired of hearing about it.

Here's what she means: if your gut lining is inflamed or your microbiome is out of balance, a lot of those nutrients just... pass through.

They never actually make it to your bones.

And the research backs this up.

Harvard Medical School's Marcus Institute for Aging Research found that a healthy gut microbiome plays an important role in regulating bone density and can even improve osteoporosis.

Researchers now call this the "gut-bone axis."

Your gut isn't a bystander in bone health, it's the gatekeeper.

The good news?

You don't have to just guess what's going on in there.

There are functional lab tests that can actually pinpoint what's disrupting your gut — low stomach acid, an imbalanced microbiome, inflammation, whatever it might be.

That's exactly what Vicky is doing right now instead of just throwing supplements at the problem and hoping.

And if your local provider doesn't offer these tests, know that as a certified health coach, Vicky can order them for you and help support you through what they uncover.
