I’ve continued my geek journey on the microbiome. I still believe it is one of the most important things to consider in terms of our overall health and well-being.
Part 1 can be found here
I’ve just completed Tim Spector’s book ‘Food for Life’ which is very good. He’s generally against using supplements, but I personally think supplements are helpful and often more cost effective than his ‘best selling author’s salary’ diet.
Diversity is key to maintaining a healthy microbiome. This means it it beneficial to eat a wide variety of plant foods to give a wide variety of fibres and polyphenols. I still take probiotics, Inulin and have as much live fermented foods as possible. Remember nuts, seeds, grains, herbs and beans all count so it’s quite easy to get a good blend.
This lecture is very informative and is the basis for this part 2 thread. I hope you find it useful.
