Let’s Meet the 6 Gut Types
Great job taking the first step toward understanding your gut. Most people resonate with more than one gut type, but noticing which quiz questions you answered “yes” to can help you identify where to begin. Each “yes” response corresponds to one of six distinct gut types, each reflecting a common pattern of imbalance such as bloating, constipation, cravings, skin issues, or inflammation. Recognizing your dominant traits can guide you toward the most effective support, whether that is a self-paced course or personalized coaching.
Your gut type profile reveals the most common disruptors, along with a holistic recovery plan that includes mindset, lifestyle, and nutrition strategies. Each gut type also comes with a specially designed meal plan to help soothe your symptoms and gently reset your system.

Explore the 6 Gut Types
The Stressed Gut
Bloating or Gas After Meals
Appetite Swings
Cramping During Digestion
Tension in the Gut
Quiz Question
Do you often feel bloated, crampy, or gassy after meals?
YES
When you are constantly in “go mode,” your body struggles to rest and digest. Chronic stress and nervous tension can lower stomach acid and digestive enzymes, making it harder to break down food. This often leads to gas, bloating, or cramping, especially after meals or during high-stress periods.
The Inflamed Gut
Brain Fog
Ongoing Fatigue
Immune Reactivity
Mood Swings or Irritability
Quiz Question
Do you experience brain fog or fatigue regularly?
YES
When your gut is inflamed, it can throw off the gut-brain connection and sap your energy. Inflammation is often triggered by food sensitivities, poor gut lining integrity, or immune dysfunction, all of which can leave you feeling foggy, drained, or emotionally off balance.
The Sluggish Gut
Constipation
Slow Motility
Low Energy
Mental Fatigue
Quiz Question
Do you go more than one day without a bowel movement?
YES
When elimination is slow or irregular, it can signal issues with motility, hydration, or fiber intake. A sluggish gut may cause toxin buildup in the body, which can leave you feeling heavy, tired, and mentally foggy. This happens as your system struggles to stay in rhythm and function smoothly.
The Reactive Gut
Immediate Reactions to Foods
Skin Breakouts
Rashes
Sudden Symptoms
Quiz Question
Do you notice eczema, rashes, or other skin reactions that come on unexpectedly?
YES
Your gut-skin connection may be signaling imbalance. Reactions like these often trace back to leaky gut, histamine intolerance, or unaddressed food sensitivities. When the gut barrier is compromised, the immune system can overreact and cause symptoms that seem to appear out of nowhere.
The Imbalanced Gut
Dysbiosis
Candida
Overgrowth Signs
Irregular Bowels
Quiz Question
Do you crave sugar, especially after your meals?
YES
Sugar cravings can be a signal of microbial imbalance in your gut. Overgrowth of yeast or certain bacteria that feed on sugar may disrupt your natural hunger signals and energy levels. Addressing this imbalance helps restore healthy digestion and steady energy throughout the day.
The Sensitive Gut
Frequent Heartburn
Acid Reflux
Easily Bothered by Foods
Mild Bloating
Quiz Question
Do you experience heartburn or acid reflux more than once a week?
YES
Digestive discomfort from acid is not always caused by too much acid. In many cases, it happens because acid moves to the wrong place or the digestive system is not functioning well. This gut type benefits from gentle care that focuses on repairing the digestive lining and restoring overall balance.
