Episode Transcript
In today's episode of two minutes motivation. I'm going to be talking to you about three things that you can do to support a healthy gut microbiome. I had an incredible conversation with Dr. Marvin Singh this week. He's an integrative gastroenterologist, and we talked about improving gut health among other things.
So if you haven't checked out that episode, I highly recommend you do. Gut health is so important for your physical health and for your mental health. So I really wanted to take a little time today to talk about three things that you can do starting today to improve your gut microbiome.
The first thing is to increase your fiber. Sounds really simple, but it can have a very powerful impact. High fiber foods are things like beans to look at eating more lentils, more kidney beans, more black beans. Play around with it. There are so many options and see what resonates with you and your body also incorporating things like raspberries and avocado and pears and apples. Those are all things that are higher in fiber, whole grains and oats. So you have a lot of options, but definitely try and incorporate more high fiber foods into your diet.
The second thing is to drink more water, staying hydrated is incredibly important and it also can help support a healthy body and healthy mind. So make sure that you're drinking enough water.
The third thing is to manage your stress. Having stress is a natural thing. We all have it, but you need to be able to manage it and to minimize your stress and to help your nervous system come back into balance. So having healthy stress management techniques, doing things like meditation, mindfulness, breathing, techniques, movement, all of that can help manage and reduce your stress.
So those are the three things that I wanted to share with you today. Increase your fiber, drink a lot of water and manage your stress. I hope that this helps you. And until next time, this is Kristel Bauer with Live Greatly inspiring you to awaken your ultimate potential.
