A gut health-focused diet nourishes the gut microbiome, comprising probiotic and prebiotic-rich foods. Probiotics in yogurt, kimchi, and kefir introduce beneficial bacteria, aiding digestion and bolstering the immune system. Prebiotics, abundant in garlic, onions, and oats, fuel these probiotics, promoting their growth and activity in the gut.
Fiber-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains support a healthy gut environment, aiding in regular bowel movements and maintaining gut lining integrity. These components contribute to improved digestion and nutrient absorption and may reduce the risk of digestive issues like constipation or bloating.
While a gut health diet is generally beneficial, sudden drastic changes might lead to temporary discomfort. Introducing dietary modifications gradually is advisable to allow the gut to adapt and minimize potential risks.
