Gut health

The gut is in constant conversation with the brain, so gut symptoms often move with stress, mood and sleep as much as with food.

Tracking gut and mind together usually reveals more than watching either on its own.

What this area covers

Bloating and discomfort, the gut-brain axis, gut anxiety, and how food, stress and sleep shape gut symptoms.

When to seek support

See a GP if symptoms are persistent, you’re losing weight without trying, there’s blood in your stool, or it’s affecting your ability to eat or work.

How Kaya helps you track it

Kaya helps you log gut symptoms with what came before them — food, sleep, stress — so the triggers behind a flare become clearer over time.
