If you’re bloated, foggy-brained, or breaking out like a teenager—your gut may be calling for help. NEWS FLASH: gut health is everything.
From your immune system to your mood, your gut microbiome controls more than you might think. And when things go sideways? Your body has ways of telling you—and you need to know how to listen.
So, here are 7 sneaky (and not-so-sneaky) signs your gut needs some TLC—plus simple tips to get things flowing in the right direction.
1. You’re Bloated After Every Meal
Even healthy foods can cause bloating if your gut microbiome is out of balance. Fermented foods, high-FODMAP veggies, and even too much protein can ferment in your gut and create gas.
Gut fix: Add a high-quality fiber and prebiotic blend (like Hona Fiber + Greens) to help regulate digestion and support healthy bacteria. Also, chew more slowly—digestion starts in the mouth!
2. You’re Low on Energy (Even After a Good Night’s Sleep)
Fatigue can stem from inflammation in the gut. If your body is constantly trying to manage imbalanced bacteria or low-grade infections, it diverts energy away from other systems.
Gut fix: Boost your daily intake of greens, fiber, and polyphenols. A daily scoop of Hona Fiber + Greens supports the gut-liver axis, improves energy, and delivers plant-based nutrients that reduce inflammation.
3. You Can’t Seem to Focus
Brain fog is a hallmark symptom of an unhappy gut. That’s because of the gut-brain connection—aka the vagus nerve highway that links your belly to your brain.
Gut fix: Balance your microbiome with soluble fiber, probiotics, and fermented foods. Avoid ultra-processed foods and excess sugar, which feed the 'bad guys' in your gut.
4. Your Skin Is Acting Up
Acne, eczema, and rosacea are all signs of internal inflammation. When your gut lining is compromised, toxins leak into the bloodstream and trigger skin reactions.
Gut fix: Add anti-inflammatory foods like leafy greens, turmeric, omega-3s, and fiber-rich supplements. Try eliminating dairy or gluten temporarily to see if your skin clears up.
5. You're Constipated (or the Opposite)
Let's get real—poop is your daily report card. Constipation, diarrhea, or alternating patterns usually mean your digestive system is out of sync.
Gut fix: Aim for 25–30 grams of fiber daily. Most Americans get half that! Hona Fiber + Greens delivers a gut-friendly blend of soluble fiber, probiotics, and greens to keep things moving naturally.
6. You Get Sick Often
Did you know that 70% of your immune system lives in your gut? If you’re catching every bug going around, your microbiome may need support.
Gut fix: Strengthen your immune defense by nourishing your microbiome with prebiotics, fiber, and antioxidants. Avoid unnecessary antibiotics and load up on gut-friendly plants.
7. Mood Swings & Anxiety Are Your New Normal
Feeling more anxious, moody, or depressed? The gut produces over 90% of serotonin, the happy hormone. A dysregulated gut can directly impact your mental health.
Gut fix: Add fermented foods, prebiotics (found in Hona Fiber + Greens), and magnesium-rich foods to your routine. Also, stress less—yoga and breathwork can help reset your nervous system.
The Bottom Line: Heal Your Gut, Heal Your Life
If you recognized even a few of these signs, your gut is waving a red flag—and it’s time to respond with love, not restriction.
Supporting your digestive health doesn’t have to be complicated. With small, consistent changes—like adding Hona Fiber + Greens to your daily routine—you can nurture your microbiome, boost your energy, and actually feel good again.
