  • Gut Health: God’s Design for Whole-Body Wellness

    When God created us, He designed every part of our body to work together in harmony. One of the most overlooked but powerful systems He gave us is the gut—often called the “second brain.” The Gut as the Second Brain Our gut is lined with over 100 million nerve cells, communicating constantly with the brain through the gut-brain axis. This is why what we eat doesn’t just affect digestion—it influences mood, immunity, hormones, and even brain function. • When our gut is healthy, we feel more energized, focused, and resilient. • When it’s out of balance, we may experience inflammation, fatigue, brain fog, poor immunity, or even anxiety and depression. God’s Word reminds us: “I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” – Psalm 139:14 (ESV) Indeed, our gut is a testament to His intricate design. The Gut-Body Connection The gut is connected to nearly every system in the body: • Immune System: About 70% of your immune cells live in the gut. A healthy microbiome strengthens your defenses against illness. • Endocrine System: Gut bacteria help regulate hormones that affect mood, stress, and metabolism. • Nervous System: The gut produces neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, directly influencing mental health. • Inflammatory Response: A balanced gut reduces systemic inflammation that can lead to chronic disease. “Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.” – 3 John 1:2 (ESV) Best Foods & Supplements for Gut Health God has given us abundant foods and natural supports to nourish and restore gut health: • Colostrum – Often called “first milk,” colostrum contains immune-boosting antibodies, growth factors, and nutrients that repair the gut lining and restore balance. • Fermented Foods – Sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, kombucha, and miso deliver living probiotics that replenish good bacteria. • Fiber-Rich Foods – Lentils, beans, oats, apples, and leafy greens feed healthy gut flora. • Healthy Fats – Avocado, olive oil, and flaxseed help reduce gut inflammation. • Omega-3s – Found in salmon, sardines, and chia seeds, these fight inflammation and support gut-brain communication. • Herbal Supports – Ginger, peppermint, and licorice root calm the digestive tract. “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” – 1 Corinthians 10:31 (ESV) Recipe: Healing Gut-Nourishing Soup Here’s a simple gut-healing soup that combines soothing, nutrient-dense ingredients: • 1 Tbsp olive oil • 1 small onion, diced • 2 cloves garlic, minced • 2 carrots, chopped • 2 celery stalks, chopped • 1 zucchini, chopped • 1 small sweet potato, cubed • 4 cups bone broth (or vegetable broth) • 1 tsp turmeric • 1 tsp ginger (fresh or powdered) • Sea salt & black pepper to taste • 2 cups chopped spinach or kale • 2 Tbsp miso paste (stirred in at the end, off heat) • Optional: 1 Tbsp flaxseed or chia seeds Directions: 1. In a large pot, warm olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sauté until fragrant. 2. Add carrots, celery, zucchini, and sweet potato. Cook 5–7 minutes. 3. Stir in broth, turmeric, ginger, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 20–25 minutes until vegetables are tender. 4. Turn off heat, stir in spinach/kale and miso paste. Let sit 5 minutes. 5. Serve warm, topped with flaxseed or chia for added gut fiber. This soup is warming, soothing, and full of nutrients that restore balance to the gut. Simple Fermentation at Home Another way to support gut health is through fermentation. Try this easy sauerkraut: 1. Shred 1 medium cabbage and place in a large bowl. 2. Add 1 Tbsp sea salt and massage into the cabbage until it releases liquid. 3. Pack tightly into a jar, making sure the cabbage is submerged in its own liquid. 4. Cover loosely and let ferment at room temperature for 5–7 days, checking daily. 5. Once it tastes tangy, refrigerate and enjoy! “And God said, ‘Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food.’” – Genesis 1:29 (ESV) Herbal Tinctures + Supplements for Gut Health  Many herbal tinctures are excellent for gut health because they help with digestion, reduce inflammation, balance gut flora, and soothe the intestinal lining. Here are some of the most beneficial tinctures: Chamomile Tincture • Calms the digestive tract, reduces gas and bloating, and eases stress that often worsens gut issues. • Gentle enough for children and sensitive stomachs. Peppermint Tincture • Relieves indigestion, cramping, and IBS-type discomfort. • Soothes the smooth muscles of the intestines. Fennel Tincture • Reduces gas, bloating, and colic. • Especially supportive after meals to ease digestion. Licorice Root Tincture  • Coats and protects the stomach lining. • Supports repair of leaky gut and helps with acid reflux. Marshmallow Root Tincture • Rich in mucilage, it soothes inflamed gut tissues and protects the intestinal lining. • Great for people with leaky gut or ulcer-type discomfort. Turmeric & Black Pepper Tincture • Reduces gut inflammation, supports liver detoxification, and helps maintain balance in the microbiome. Slippery Elm Capsules  • Another mucilaginous herb that soothes and coats the gut lining. • Helpful for constipation, diarrhea, and irritation. “Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.” – Proverbs 16:24 Just like God’s Word nourishes the soul, herbs and natural supports nourish the body when used wisely. Your gut truly is the foundation of your health—physically, mentally, and spiritually. By choosing nourishing, whole foods, adding probiotics and colostrum, and leaning on God’s design, you can bring healing and balance to your entire body. Let’s care for the gift of our bodies as a temple of the Holy Spirit. “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own.” – 1 Corinthians 6:19 (NIV) ⚠️ Disclaimer: These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and this information is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

  • Healing the Gut: A Kingdom Approach to Digestive Health

    “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.” – 3 John 1:2 At Kingdom Come Home, we believe in honoring the temple God has given us. That includes caring for the very core of our physical well-being: the digestive system. Your gut is not just where food is processed—it’s where healing begins. It affects your immune system, your brain, your energy, your hormones, and even your emotions. God designed our bodies with incredible healing power, and nature is full of His provision. Let’s look at four time-tested, holistic remedies that support gut health—and why they’re a blessing for you and your family. Slippery Elm Bark: A Gentle Healer for Inflamed Tissues Slippery elm has been used for centuries to soothe the digestive tract. It becomes mucilaginous when mixed with water—forming a slick, soothing gel that coats and protects the lining of the stomach and intestines. Benefits of Slippery Elm Bark: • Soothes heartburn, indigestion, and ulcers • Reduces inflammation in the gut lining • Supports regular bowel movements • Gentle enough for children and sensitive individuals “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” – Psalm 107:20 At Kingdom Come Home, we offer Slippery Elm Bark supplements, crafted with organic herbs—safe for every season of life. Organic Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother: Restoring Digestive Fire Apple cider vinegar (ACV) with the “mother” is a fermented tonic rich in beneficial enzymes and probiotics. Just a small daily dose can make a big difference in how your gut processes food. Benefits of Organic ACV: • Balances stomach acid and improves digestion • Supports nutrient absorption • Aids in bloating and indigestion relief • Encourages a healthy microbiome “So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” – 1 Corinthians 10:31 Our Organic Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies are a convenient, palatable way to get your daily dose—no sour face required! Activated Charcoal: God’s Natural Detoxifier Activated charcoal is a powerful substance made from burning natural materials like coconut shells or hardwoods, then treating them to increase their surface area. This allows them to trap toxins and gas in the gut and gently carry them out of the body. Benefits of Activated Charcoal: • Relieves gas and bloating • Helps remove toxins and harmful bacteria • Supports a healthy microbiome balance • Can calm food sensitivities or reactions “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.” – Psalm 51:10 We suggest using Activated Charcoal Supplements as needed after meals, during detox protocols, or when exposed to questionable food or drink. Castor Oil Packs: Gentle, External Support for Internal Wellness God’s design for healing includes not just what we take in, but also how we care outwardly for our organs. Castor oil packs are a traditional remedy applied externally to the abdomen, stimulating the lymphatic system and supporting liver and bowel function. Benefits of Castor Oil Packs: • Encourages detox through lymph and liver support • Relieves constipation and bloating • Reduces inflammation and abdominal pain • Promotes hormone balance “You shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water, and I will take sickness away from among you.” – Exodus 23:25 We recommend incorporating Castor Oil Packs a few nights a week for deep, restful healing while you sleep—because even while you rest, the Lord is working on your behalf. God Cares About Your Gut Your digestive health matters to God. He designed your body with wisdom and placed within His creation every good and perfect gift we need to heal. “My son, give attention to my words… for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh.” – Proverbs 4:20-22 At Kingdom Come Home, we’re honored to walk with you on this healing journey—offering you pure, purpose-driven products that support your body the way God intended. Let’s heal from the inside out, with wisdom, with faith, and with the goodness of His natural design. ⚠️ Disclaimer: These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and this information is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

  • God’s Gifts from the Sea: Nourishment, Healing, and Abundance

    From the moment God created the heavens and the earth, He filled the seas with treasures both seen and unseen. In Genesis 1:20–21 , we read that the waters were commanded to “bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life.” These living waters have sustained humanity for centuries, providing nourishment, healing, and strength. At Kingdom Come Home, we honor these divine provisions by carefully sourcing ocean-sourced supplements—ensuring purity, potency, and reverence for the creation God has entrusted to us. All of our sea moss is wildcrafted from the pristine waters of St. Lucia, harvested in harmony with nature to preserve its powerful benefits. The Purity of the Source Matters Just as Proverbs 4:23 tells us to “keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life,” we must also guard the sources of our nutrition. Ocean-harvested plants and animals draw their strength from the waters they grow in. Polluted waters can diminish their goodness and introduce harmful elements. This is why we only use wildcrafted sea moss from clean, unpolluted waters—never pool-grown or artificially processed—so you receive the full measure of God’s provision, untainted. Sea Moss Tincture Psalm 104:24–25 reminds us, “O Lord, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. So is this great and wide sea…” Sea moss, often called “God’s ocean multivitamin,” contains 92 of the 102 minerals our bodies need. Benefits of St. Lucian Wildcrafted Sea Moss: Supports immune function with a rich array of minerals Promotes healthy digestion and gut lining repair Nourishes skin, hair, and nails from the inside out Encourages thyroid health through natural iodine Helps maintain energy and vitality Our Sea Moss Tincture delivers these nutrients in a quick-absorbing form—perfect for those who want maximum benefit with minimal preparation. Sea Moss & Bladderwrack Gummies When sea moss joins forces with bladderwrack—another God-given sea plant—the benefits multiply. Bladderwrack adds additional minerals, antioxidants, and compounds known to support thyroid function, joint health, and metabolism. Together, they provide a double dose of oceanic nutrition in a tasty, convenient gummy. These gummies are perfect for daily wellness, travel, or for those who want a nutrient boost without mixing powders or tinctures. Sea Cucumber Supplements While less well-known than sea moss, the sea cucumber is a biblical-level treasure from the deep. Rich in chondroitin sulfate, amino acids, and antioxidants, it has been valued in traditional cultures for centuries. Benefits: Supports joint health and mobility Promotes healthy skin renewal and collagen formation Contains compounds that support immune defense May help reduce inflammation throughout the body The sea cucumber is a living reminder that God’s provision often comes in humble, unexpected forms—yet its impact on our health can be profound. Spirulina Supplements Though technically a blue-green algae, spirulina thrives in mineral-rich waters and has been used as a nutrient powerhouse for generations. Benefits: Rich in protein, iron, and essential fatty acids Supports detoxification by binding to heavy metals Encourages healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels Strengthens the immune system with potent antioxidants Spirulina’s deep green color is a visible testament to the life-giving chlorophyll within—a gift from the Creator that nourishes us from the cellular level. Honoring the Giver by Honoring the Gift The ocean’s bounty is more than a collection of nutrients—it is a reflection of God’s creativity, wisdom, and generosity. As stewards of these gifts, we must harvest them responsibly, protect their purity, and use them to glorify the One who provided them. Job 12:7–10 beautifully declare s, “But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this? In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.” At Kingdom Come Home, we invite you to taste and see that the Lord is good—through the pure, wildcrafted gifts He has placed in the sea. ⚠️ Disclaimer: These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and this information is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
