Gut friendly bacteria need plant fibre to feed on and survive. So if your diet is low in fibre, consider adding some.

If you would like to read an article on how fibre modulates your gut microbiome, please click HERE. This is from that article: “Dietary fibre is nutritionally important, and has health-promoting food ingredients. Modern dietary practices have seen a significant reduction in fibre consumption compared with ancestral habits. This is related to the emergence of low-fibre “Western diets” present within industrialised nations, which may create a prevalence of gut diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, type II diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome. The characteristic metabolic parameters of these individuals include insulin resistance, high fasting and postprandial glucose, as well as high plasma cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL).
Gut microbial signatures are also altered significantly in these cohorts, suggesting a causative link between diet, microbes and disease. Dietary fibre consumption has been hypothesised to reverse these changes through microbial fermentation and the subsequent production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), which improves glucose and lipid parameters in individuals who harbour diseases associated with dysfunctional metabolism.”

Hi Bruce, thank you for your comment. Digestive health is the gate keeper between ease and dis-ease. 🙂
