Supercharge Your Gut Health With Food
There are many factors that contribute to the health of your gut microbiome. Your sleep quality, stress level, and how much you exercise all play a role. But, the #1 factor that determines the health of your gut is…
…Your diet.
You’ve heard the saying: you are what you eat. And it’s so true.
If your diet consists mostly of sugary, processed foods, then your gut isn’t going to be happy. But, if you feed your gut the right foods and nutrients, then amazing things can happen.
Here are the top recommendations for restoring and maintaining a healthy gut:
Cut back on sugar and processed foods
Sure, enjoying a fast food burger or a slice of cake once in a blue moon is totally fine. But, when you eat a lot of processed or sugary foods, you destroy your gut health. These foods feed the bad gut bacteria that cause bloating and indigestion, while decreasing your amount of good, healthy bacteria.
Fill up on veggies
Vegetables should be your primary source of carbohydrates. Veggies like broccoli, kale, spinach, and asparagus, as well as low-sugar fruits, are incredibly nutritious and gut healthy. They contain prebiotics, a type of fiber that feeds the good gut bacteria to support healthy digestion.
Eat healthy fats
Research shows eating a lot of saturated and trans fats can be harmful for your gut. Saturated fats from butter and fatty cuts of meat can stimulate bad bacteria growth, while lowering your good bacteria. To promote a healthy microbiome, opt for unsaturated fats like olive oil, eggs, salmon, avocado, and nuts.
Restore balance with probiotics
Probiotics rebalance your gut by adding more healthy bacteria. While probiotics can be found in fermented foods, like sauerkraut and kimchi, you’d need to eat A TON of these foods every day for it to really make a difference. That’s why a probiotic supplement is so important.
But not all probiotic supplements are created equal… In fact, some work a lot better than others.
