Happy gut, happy life!
I am SO excited to announce my partnership with Simply Biotix on National Love Your Gut Day!
Simply Biotix is a maker of probiotic supplements including Gutsy which is a berry-flavored powdered probiotic that tastes amazing and simply dissolves on your tongue!
As a dietitian, I am passionate about gut health because our gut microbiome is influenced by what we EAT.
Certain foods like those that contain probiotics & prebiotics, support the “good” gut bacteria linked to:
- Stronger Immunity
- Better Digestion
- Synthesis of B vitamins & Vitamin K
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that are contained in many of the foods we eat, especially fermented foods This includes:
- Yogurt
- Kombucha
- Sauerkraut
- Kefir
- Kimchi
Prebiotics on the other hand are natural, non-digestible food components that promote growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut. They can be found in:
- Asparagus
- Bananas
- Onions
- Garlic
- Whole Grains
Enter to win a SIX-MONTH supply of Simply Biotix’s Gutsy HERE. Winner will be announced 3/19, 12 pm EST!
This Love Your Gut Plate is made with many of these gut-loving foods including asparagus, whole grains and lots of veggies. Plant-based foods, in general, are all good sources of prebiotics.
