Emily Leeming, a microbiome researcher at King's College London, dietitian, and former private chef, emphasizes the importance of eating fermented foods daily to boost gut health. She notes that emerging research indicates these foods can increase microbiome diversity, which is crucial to overall health.
"We are really understanding more and more that this collection of a hundred trillion microorganisms are influencing every aspect of our health," said Leeming. This reveals the significant role gut bacteria play in our overall well-being.
"Kefir, I find really easy to incorporate in different things," she said, suggesting that this fermented drink can easily replace yogurt in smoothies and other recipes.
Leeming suggests keeping fermented veggies in the fridge to encourage daily consumption. This habit, along with adding kefir to meals, helps maintain diverse gut health.
