Recipes for the Microbiome: The health of the human microbiome is profoundly influenced by the foods we consume. Our diet plays a pivotal role in nurturing the trillions of microorganisms that reside in our gut, which are essential for digestion, immunity, and overall well-being. To support and feed the microbiome effectively, it’s important to include a diverse range of nutrient-rich foods and specific combinations that promote microbial diversity and health.
I have compiled over 150 recipes in my extensive guide to feeding the human microbiome. These recipes are designed with the specific purpose of nourishing the gut’s beneficial bacteria, using whole foods and balanced combinations of ingredients. Whether you’re looking to improve digestion, boost immunity, or simply enhance your overall health, these recipes offer delicious and practical ways to support your body’s microbial ecosystem.
At Living Ground, our commercial kitchen also serves as an apothecary, dedicated to creating these microbiome-friendly recipes. Additionally, our natural health and whole foods store offers many of these products, making it easier for you to integrate these beneficial foods into your daily life. I share these recipes openly, driven by the belief that knowledge and access to health-promoting foods should be available to all. By fostering a community around these practices, we aim to improve human health, one microbiome at a time.
