1. “Feed the gut that feeds you.”
Add resistant starches like green bananas or cooked-and-cooled potatoes to fuel your good bacteria.
2. Your gut loves routine.
Eat meals around the same time daily—your microbiome thrives on rhythm and consistency.
3. Chew like you mean it.
Digestion starts in the mouth. Aim for 20–30 chews per bite to give your gut a head start.
4. Bitters before meals = better digestion.
Naturally bitter foods like rocket, dandelion greens, or lemon water can prime your gut for digestion.
5. Stress makes your gut shut down.
Take 5 deep breaths before eating to switch on your parasympathetic (“rest & digest”) mode.
6. Rotate your probiotics.
Try different fermented foods weekly (like kefir, kimchi, kombucha) to diversify your gut flora.
7. Move it to move it.
A short 10-minute walk after meals can support digestion and reduce bloating.
8. Your gut bugs have a bedtime too.
Poor sleep disrupts your microbiome. Prioritize 7–8 hours of quality rest for optimal gut health.
9. Mushrooms = Microbiome magic.
Functional mushrooms like reishi, lion’s mane, and cordyceps boost gut immunity and balance. Check out our range of gut powders with medicinal mushrooms here!
10. Your skin reflects your gut.
Breakouts or dullness may signal an imbalance. Gut-first skincare is the real glow-up. |
