TRAUMA, STRESS AND NUTRIENT ABSORPTION

TRAUMA, STRESS AND NUTRIENT ABSORPTION

When we live in a constant state of doing, pushing, worrying, or surviving — the body begins to quietly shut down the very systems that sustain us.

Under high stress or emotional trauma, the nervous system prioritises survival, not digestion.
Blood flow is diverted away from the gut.
Stomach acid and digestive enzyme production drop.
The lining of the intestines becomes more permeable — inflamed, reactive, “leaky.”
Nutrients that once nourished now pass through unabsorbed.
You can eat the best food in the world — but if your body’s in fight-or-flight, it simply can’t receive and assimilate it.

This is the heartbreak and the miracle of the human body — it protects us, even when it costs us.

But we can rebuild.

Liquid nutrition — like the formulas in the Amanda Allen Nutrition range — offers a bridge back to balance. This is what saved me.
These are pre-digested, cell-ready nutrients that bypass compromised digestion and begin gently feeding, fueling and restoring the body again.

• Green Goodness calms inflammation, remineralises cells and restores alkalinity.
• Radiance Smoothie provides bioavailable collagen, amino acids, and minerals that repair the gut lining.
• PARA-X and Zeo Body Detox support microbial balance and detox pathways — clearing the backlog of stress, toxins and parasites.
• Wildfire Cider awakens the metabolism, restores gut pH, bile flow, and enzyme activity.

When the body can’t do the heavy lifting, these formulas do the work instead.

Healing begins with absorption — not just of nutrients, but of peace.
When we soothe the nervous system and offer nutrients it can actually use, the body remembers how to heal itself.

🕊️ Feed yourself in ways your body can receive.
That’s where true recovery begins.
