Your gut microbiome — the trillions of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms living in your digestive system — is directly influenced by what you eat. The right foods feed your good bacteria and help them thrive. The wrong foods feed harmful bacteria and cause your microbiome to become imbalanced. The good news is that your microbiome can shift within just a few days of changing your diet.
In this post we look at the best foods for a healthy gut — the ones with the strongest evidence for improving your microbiome, reducing inflammation, and supporting digestive health overall.
