Hi, I’m Weis Dietitian Emily Santanna with the Weis HealthyBites tip of the week. The topic of gut health is very important. Many foods can have a positive influence on our gut health. Prebiotics, probiotics, and fiber are three parts to focus on.
- High fiber foods can help with fullness and GI regularity, think beans, produce, nuts & seeds
- Prebiotics feed our gut bacteria and can be found in oats, onions, beans and more
- Probiotics are good bacteria in our gut and come from a variety of fermented foods including yogurt, sauerkraut and sourdough bread.
