The new year is here and people are searching for ways to improve their health for weight loss and muscle gain etc.

When we talk about the lower gut it can’t be stressed enough how much it dictates your overall health and that it is as important as any other major organ in your body. Some of the benefits of maintaining a healthy gut biome are weight management, better absorption of nutrients which help with energy and muscle building (as well as many other functions in the body), and the ability to fight off viruses by boosting your immune system.

Here are some foods to include in your daily diet to improve your lower gut biome:

🌿Beans, chickpeas and lentils (fermentable fibre)

🌿 Kefir, kombucha

🌿 Fibre (fruits, vegetables etc)

🌿Raw walnuts

🌿 Green leafy vegetables

🌿 Yogurt with live bacteria

🌿 Fermented vegetables
