If you can't sleep 7+ hours a night without interruption, your gut isn't healthy. And doing a stool test such as the GI Map will give a lot of insight into what's causing your insomnia. 
In this episode, you'll learn:  - how the GI Map looks at gut health and shows why you can't sleep.
- the 3 top gut issues that impact sleep.
- how an unhealthy gut leads to other imbalances in the body that sabotage sleep. 

Emmanuel just started the Insomnia Insight program and he's already sleeping better! 
“When I saw I have H Pylori, a lot of things started to make sense. Believe it or not, many functional medicine doctors I visited in the past didn't detect it using the other tests they use. I quickly started reading about what HP does and how it results in decreased absorption, inflammation, etc. It now makes sense why none of the other treatments I tried in the past had any effect. I have been taking the supplements for a week. For the first time in years, I had 3 nights in a week where I slept 7 hours straight. So something right is definitely happening. I learned not to raise my hopes too fast but I feel something is changing in my gut.”
