Good bacteria for your gut are a variety of foodsOur intestines, as we have already said, are home to hundreds of bacterial species. Their active growth requires foods that will stimulate it.
The standard diet of modern people, however, stimulates not the multiplication but the death of beneficial bacteria and the development of pathogenic microflora. Diversify your diet with nutritious foods rather than fatty foods, sweets, fast food, and chemical products and drinks.
Add fiber-rich foods to your dietVegetables, fruits, herbs, and legumes are the foods our microbiome loves. An important factor for the bacteria in our intestines is the fiber in our diet, especially the quality types of it. These also include
TASLIM to help you understand how to build good bacteria in your gut.
Speaking of how do you get good bacteria in your gut, the following foods are worth consuming:
- Wholemeal cereals, different types of cereals in the wholemeal form
- Beans, chickpeas, lentils
- Broccoli
- Onion, garlic
- Almond, pistachio
Add fermented foods to your regular dietThese are foods that have undergone natural fermentation processes. Examples of fermented foods:
- Kimchi
- Sauerkraut
- Kefir
- Kombucha
All fermented milk products are good for gut bacteria. It is important that they have no sugar or other impurities. Any vegetables that we want to preserve for longer, we freeze or sauerkraut, with only salt.
Use whole grain cerealsDo not use maximally purified cereals in your diet. All cereals should be whole grains made from unprocessed grains. You will find a lot of fiber and healthy vitamins in the husks of grains, as well as the intestinal benefits of beta-glucans, representatives of undigested fiber.
Eat food rich in polyphenolsPolyphenols are antioxidants that serve as fuel for the beneficial bacteria in our microbiome.
Polyphenol-rich foods include:
- Cocoa and dark chocolate (promotes the growth of bifido and lactobacilli)
- Green tea
- Almond
- Onion
- Blueberries
- Broccoli
Eat foods rich in probiotics and prebioticsYou can read more about these products in the articles on our website.
Do not use flavour enhancersWe are talking about artificial sweeteners, namely aspartame, sucralose, and saccharin. They directly affect gut microflora, which leads to diabetes and obesity. These sweeteners often cause diarrhea by disrupting the intestinal microflora.
