Understanding the gut-heart connection helps explain why digestion matters for your heart. The gut microbiome influences inflammation, lipid metabolism, and vascular function, linking digestion directly to cardiovascular health. By supporting a balanced digestion, you can positively affect the gut-heart connection and help manage risk factors like high cholesterol or elevated blood pressure. Practical steps—such as increasing diverse dietary fiber, enjoying fermented foods, and reducing ultra-processed items—give you a real-world path to healthier heart signals from your gut. InnerBuddies offers a robust Gut Health Operating System to turn gut science into actionable heart-health benefits. Our platform provides a Gut Microbiome Health Index, a 0–100 score that signals gut quality, built on an exclusive IP deal with EAFIT University in Colombia. We also show Bacteria Abundances with a top 40 panel so you can see how you compare to a healthy cohort, and we label Bacteria Functions as positive or negative, showing where the gut-heart connection stands in terms functional impact.
