This article was written by herbalist Jon Keyes, 2017. What we are starting to discover is that one of the main reasons for illness is due to the damage that stress does to the gut and to the gastrointestinal microbiota: http://herbsformentalhealth.com/trauma-the-gut-and-healing-building-deep-resiliency-with-herbs/
Healing the gut can be instrumental in healing the underlying physical wounds of trauma that can be carried to adulthood in the form of a damaged microbiota, poor digestion, inflammation, fatigue, autoimmune disorders, anxiety and depression.
