Fiber For Gut Health

Fiber Is Vital For Your Health

 Here's a very informative video on the importance of fiber in your diet.
  

  • Your diet influences your health not just by the micronutrients it contains, but also by how it affects the bacterial colonies residing in your intestinal tract
  • Soluble dietary fibers promote health by fueling beneficial bacteria to produce short chain fatty acids that help regulate your immune function and form ketones to fuel your tissues
  • Rising obesity and disease rates are fueled by factors that alter the microbial composition of our microbiome. This includes C-sections, antibiotics, and dietary changes, especially the avoidance of breastfeeding
