Your gut microbiome is composed of good bacteria & bad bacteria (over 100 trillion!). Having both is normal, and essential. We want more of an abundance of the GOOD bacteria though in order to feel our best and have out bodies function optimally. These bacteria play a role in metabolism, immune system, and production of essential bio-compounds including vitamins and hormones. An imbalance of this bacteria can cause bloating, lethargy, food sensitivities, skin conditions & significant changes to your mood!Dysbiosis (the imbalance of bacteria) can happen due to a number of reasons including aging, use of antibiotics, eating a diet low in fiber because the gut microbiome thrives on complex carbohydrates, any chronic disease, and an unhealthy lifestyle.So how can we keep the bad bacteria at bay and the good bacteria thriving?✅ Adding in probiotics (live bacteria & yeasts) specifically Lactobacillus rhamnosus - occurs naturally in the gut and helps fight IBS symptoms, diarrhea and cavitiesFood sources: kefir, miso, sauerkraut, kombucha. ✅ Adding prebiotics (food for good bacteria)Prebiotics help stimulate certain bacterial populations to multiplyand survive in the gut.Food sources: Raspberries, apples & pears with skin, brown rice, lentils, beans, potatoes with skin plus many more!
