Can Fermented Foods Improve Gut Health? β Doctor Reviews
A brand new study shows that fermented foods lead to a healthier microbiome; a healthier microbiome leads to a healthier gut, which vastly improves your entire bodily health and your overall well being. In the study of 36 people, researchers found that those randomly assigned to eat plenty of fermented foods, such as yogurt, kimchi, and kombucha, showed an increase in their gut microbiome diversity.Β
The microbiome refers to the vast collection of bacteria and other microorganisms that naturally dwell in the gut, and alsoΒ on your skin and your sinus cavities, that are on your lungs and your organ systems. Research in recent years has been revealing just how important those microbes are to the body’s normal processes, from metabolism and nutrient synthesis to immune defenses to brain function.
The study suggests that microbiome is important for the body’s normal processes. One of the things that we know from research is that you can take someone who has insulin resistance and you can introduce a bacteria to them in the form of a probiotic, and it will help improve their insulin resistance problems.
You can take somebody who has nutrient deficiencies and improve their nutrient capacity simply by introducing certain probiotics, because they help produce nutrients. About 80% of your immune system is tied to your gut health. If your immune system is struggling, your gut health is likely struggling, and vice versa. And there’s a lot of emerging research showing that people who have decreased cognitive function, also have a decrease of certain types of probiotics. Fortunately, there are immune support probiotics that can help your gut.
There’s still much to learn about what constitutes a healthy microbiome, but broadly speaking, greater diversity is believed to be healthier.Β
Scientists have found much greater microbiome diversity among certain indigenous populations who still live pre-industrial lifestyles, and typically do not suffer from modern ills like obesity and clogged heart arteries. The makeup of any one person’s microbiome is influenced by many things, including genes, health conditions, stress, and medication use, particularly antibiotics.Β
If you have a weak microbiome, you’re far more susceptible to yeast infections, bacterial infections, skin conditions, autoimmune diseases.
Diet is considered to be a key player in the microbiome, and the Western typical diet is not only heavy in processed foods and low and whole plant foods, but it also is very low in probiotic-rich foods. The average American has zero fermented foods in their diet.
A great way to get a large diversity of probiotics is to eat fermented food. I recommend that you eat fermented food every single day. You don’t have to eat a ton of it. You just need to eat some and include it in your diet daily.Β
You can buy fermented foods, though beware that they tend to be more expensive at the grocery store because they require refrigeration. You can also make them at home. Here are a few examples of good sources of probiotics that you can make for pennies in the comfort of your own kitchen.
1) Sauerkraut
It’s very simple to make you literally just chop up a whole bunch of cabbage and, you know, you put a salt on it and stick it in the jar and let it ferment on your counter. It’s very simple to make, and it’s delicious.
2) Kombucha
Β If you make kombucha in your home, it literally costs like pennies. If you buy in the store, it’s a little bit more expensive.
3) Sourdough Bread
That’s with fermented yeast, which is really delicious.
4) KimchiΒ
5) Yogurt
It’s actually pretty easy to make yogurt yourself. If you buy yogurt, make sure you’re looking for added-sugar-free options with a lot of live cultures.
6) Cheese
I don’t recommend making cheese, as it’s more difficult, but it’s a good source of probiotics, too.
7) Kefir Grains
They’re easy to get, and you can make a lot of really good drinks with that.
8) Fermented Pickles
They are easy to make at home, or you can buy them.Β
Remember, improving your gut health is a vital first step to improving your overall health.
One of the things you can do is take probiotics daily but also do your best to increase your intake of fermented foods.Β
