Your gut does so much more than just digest food... your gut health impacts everything from your energy, mood, immune system and even your skin! 🤯 If you’re looking to feel your best this year, taking better care of your gut is a good place to start. And the best part? You don’t need to buy a ton of expensive supplements to improve your gut health!
Here’s 7 super simple gut-healthy habits to try out in the new year:
🥦 Add an extra serving of fruits or veggies to your meals each day. Your gut loves fiber and plants are packed with it! Plus, eating a wide variety is super important for good gut health.
💧 Drink a glass of water first thing in the morning. Hydration is key for digestion and overall health. Bonus: it helps wake you up too!
🍶 Try a new fermented food each month. Fermented foods like kimchi, kefir or yogurt are full of probiotics (aka the good bacteria your gut loves). Never tried kombucha? 2025 is your year!
🧘 Take 5 minutes a day to do deep breathing. Stress is your gut’s arch nemesis. Taking some time to help reduce stress can work wonders for your digestion.
📱 Track your meals & gut symptoms. Whether it’s bloating, diarrhea or other symptoms, logging it can help uncover patterns and triggers. (The Injoy app is great for this! 😉)
🚶 Take a short walk after lunch. Movement supports digestion and helps prevent that mid-afternoon slump. Even a quick 10-minute stroll can help!
🍌 Add a prebiotic to your routine. Prebiotics (like bananas, garlic or onions) feed your gut’s good bacteria and help your gut microbiome thrive.
