What food is best for a gut health plan?

What is gut health prime? 

Gut health affects our sleep, mood, energy level, and most importantly, the functioning of our other major organs. Chronic constipation, hyperacidity, and bloating have become epidemics. It affects our hormones, and research shows that a bad gut can lead to autoimmune disease.

What food is best for a gut health plan?

Make your diet more fibrous - Some of the most common gut health foods comprising soluble fibers are:

  • Millet - There are two types of millet, rich in dietary fiber, and soluble and insoluble. The insoluble fiber (Nuts, Beans, Vegetables, Whole-Wheat flour) in millet is called a "prebiotic," meaning it supports the good bacteria in your digestive tract.
  • Oats- Oats contain all three parts of the natural grain, are minimally processed, and are a good source of dietary fiber.
  • Legumes - Beans and legumes are excellent sources of dietary fiber, protein, B vitamins, and many other important vitamins and minerals. There is some evidence that they may help lower blood sugar, promote heart health, and maintain a healthy gut.
  • Seeds and Nuts - Most nuts and seeds are rich in proteins, healthy fats, and fiber.

Some foods to improve gut health that are rich in insoluble fibers are:

  • Whole Grain - If you want your stomach to function well, you must include whole grains in your daily diet. Whole grains are rich in fiber, antioxidants, and other micronutrients. Fiber from wheat is good for your gut health because it's prebiotic that helps support the good bacteria in your gut. Rice can also help prevent constipation due to Loose-Stools.
  • Green leafy vegetables - Leafy green vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, and kale are rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, and iron. Eating more leafy vegetables can heal your stomach and make it work better. 
  • Fiber-Rich Food - A fiber diet can reduce reflux, ulcers, and the risk of health problems such as hemorrhoids and irritable bowel syndrome. 
  • Prebiotics - Adding prebiotics to your diet improves digestion and bowel movements. Bananas, custard, watermelon, and grapefruit are some probiotic-rich fruits.
  • Probiotics - Probiotics are live bacteria that are reported to provide health benefits when consumed, often by improving or restoring the gut microbiomes. Adding a probiotic to your diet improves digestion, and promotes heart health. Yogurt, Kefir, Traditional Buttermilk, and some types of cheese.

Herbs & Spices - Turmeric is immensely effective for inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. 

Spices like-

  • Black cumin - Supports digestion and decreases digestive problems including gas, bloating, and stomach pain. 
  • Coriander - It promotes digestion and gut health.
  • Fennel - Fennel has been shown to aid digestion by reducing intestinal inflammation and reducing gas-producing bacteria.
  • Ginger - Ginger encourages efficient digestion so food does not linger as long in the gut. 
  • Cardamom - It helps with digestion. 
  • Garlic - These feeds the bacteria to work better and make your gut work better overall.

 It not only adds flavor to your food but also increases the secretion of enzymes for better digestion. You should eat slowly and chew your food rightly so that the digestive enzymes can work on the food. To keep your body fit, you should do regular exercise in your program.

What foods should you avoid for gut health?

 A gut diet meal plan is essential for preserving digestive health and avoiding chronic diseases associated with unbalanced gut flora. Avoiding foods that can harm beneficial gut bacteria or result in unpleasant stomach symptoms like bloating, constipation, or diarrhea is crucial for maintaining a healthy gut.

 Foods should be avoided-

  1. Refined Sugar
  • There are reasons to reduce sugar intake. One reason is that excess sugar suppresses healthy gut bacteria, which can cause inflammation in the body.
  • Refined sugar is quickly digested in the first part of the small intestine, making your blood sugar and starving all your gut microbes.
  1. Alcohol and other beverages
  •  Regular alcohol consumption can alter the gut microbiome and encourage the growth of bad bacteria in the gut, leading to intestinal disorders.
  • Intestinal failure can manifest as increased intestinal permeability, which can lead to many health problems.
  • Also, too much coffee, soda, and chocolate increases caffeine in the body, which irritates the stomach.
  1. Heavily processed foods
  • Frozen entrees, fast food, white bread, and canned vegetables are just a few unhealthy foods that can affect your gut microbiome. 
  • These foods are not ideal for the growth of healthy bacteria, as they contain unhealthy nutrients such as sugar and nutrients and fiber.
