And when kids see their peers walking around with bags or buckets full of sweets, it feels almost impossible to say no. But what if we reframed Halloween—not by taking away the fun, but by showing kids (and reminding ourselves) what’s really happening inside their bodies? That’s where gut-healthy Halloween ideas come in.
Many people think gut health is just about digestion—but the truth runs deeper. From leaky gut to gluten fears to stool test confusion, we explore 10 common gut health myths, what science actually says, and how to support your gut with wisdom, not hype.
