Enhancing your gut health is one of those things that sounds simple, but in real life can feel a little overwhelming. With so many products on supermarket shelves, it's hard to know where to start! The good news? You only need a few consistent swaps to make a meaningful difference.
When we're aiming to enhance our gut health, these are the key pillars: fruit and vegetable diversity to nourish the gut microbiome, prebiotics and probiotics to feed our gut bacteria and also fibre to keep digestion running smoothly!
In this video, we have shared some simple swaps that you can make when supermarket shopping that can help you boost gut-loving nutrients without overhauling your whole routine. Here's what we recommend:
- Plain salad kit → mixed salad kit
- Flavoured yoghurt → yoghurt with added active probiotics
- White crispbread → wholegrain and seed crispbread
- White bread/wraps → wholegrain bread/wraps
- Single frozen veg variety → mixed frozen veg variety
- Single canned legume variety → mixed canned legume variety
- White rice → brown rice
- Single frozen fruit variety → mixed frozen fruit variety
What is one gut-friendly swap you're going to try this week?
