What does a HEALTHY Microbiome Look Like?

This is a question that needs to be asked if you want to experience greater health!

The reason being that your MICROBIOME is connected with virtually every aspect of physical health (and to some degree, mental health)!

HEALTH BEGINS IN THE GUT.

Some highlights from today's MM episode on MICROBIOME...

- Every part of the body has a MICROBIOME, but here we're of course focusing on the GUT
- A HEALTHY microbiome is a DIVERSE microbiome
- Why you should NOT swallow probiotic capsules or rely on fermented food to modulate your microbiome
- Prebiotics are your gut bugs' best friends, and every plant food has them!
- Diversity of the microbiome begins with a diversity of plants on your plate
- Your microbiome serves YOU through creating short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that are potent antiinflammatory and healing compounds
- Antibiotics, including herbicides/pesticides, are certainly harsh on the gut, but a healthy microbiome creates resilience!
- If you have digestive issues, increase plants/fiber LOW and SLOW
