Lesson Overview

2.18 – Inflammation, Gut Health & Muscle Repair: Your gut affects muscle gain because digestion controls how well you absorb the nutrients you eat. If your stomach is irritated, even a perfect meal plan can turn into poor recovery and weak workouts. Inflammation can make muscles stay sore longer and make joints feel more sensitive under load. Some people think they need a new program, but the real issue is food choices that keep their body inflamed. Ultra-processed foods, low fiber, and poor hydration can slow digestion and reduce energy in training. When the gut is healthier, your body uses protein better and refills glycogen more efficiently. Better digestion often improves sleep too, which boosts recovery even more. Paying attention to bloating, bathroom habits, and energy swings helps you spot problems early. Simple improvements like more whole foods, more fiber, and better hydration often create noticeable strength gains. Managing inflammation also helps you train more frequently without feeling broken down. When gut health improves, your muscle-building plan starts working the way it was supposed to. This is a powerful advantage for natural lifters.
