4 simple ways to boost your gut health this January.

January is a helpful time to run a little sensor check on your health and wellbeing so that you're ready to emerge from your hibernation and fly into February fit and well. Here are just 4 very simple ways to help support your gut health.

1. Eat Fermented Foods.

These foods are rich in probiotics and include foods such as kimchi, sauerkraut, miso, water kefir and kombucha. This can be very beneficial for encouraging a diverse microbiome and promoting good gut health.

2. Stay Hydrated.

This is really important, especially when increasing fibre into your diet. Moisture is also essential to mucosal lining health and supports an environment favourable for good beneficial bacteria

3. Consume Prebiotic Foods.

For more information on prebiotic foods, take a look at our blog HERE. This includes foods such as asparagus, leek, garlic and chicory root (as you find in our range of Nutty One Bars!)

4. Include Diverse Plants in your diet.

Eating an array of vegetables including herbs and some fruits as well as seeds/nuts helps to encourage a diverse microbiome (a good balance of gut bacteria). It is important alongside this to avoid foods that are sugary and processed.
