Give Your Gut a Break with Bone Broth

Liquid diets have long been touted as quick gut-fixers… And not for no reason.

So many diseases have been linked to a microbial imbalance — a disproportionate bacteria distribution in your gut — that people have come up with all kinds of solutions ever since humankind started listening to our guts.

Because there are more than 100 trillion bacteria in the digestive system — great than in the entire rest of our bodies — there’s a pretty big margin for error.

Different Gut Issues and How to Eat for Them

Modern Western medical science has spent many years overlooking one crucial area of the human body: the gut.

Shocking, considering 60-70 million people are affected by digestive diseases in the United States alone. And, because only 36.6 million receive a gut disorder diagnosis on their first doctor’s office visit, 60-70 million may be a conservative figure.

Whole30 and Your Gut Flora

Someone in your office is doing “Whole30” this January, and they’re likely telling everyone about it.

And if you haven’t heard anyone talking about it… then it might be you.

If you haven’t heard of it (and you weren’t listening while your coworker explained it), “Whole30” is a month-long exclusionary diet. For 30 days, you cut out soy, dairy, grains, alcohol, legumes, and added sugars. 

So… probably most of what your regular Western diet consists of. The idea is that after 30 days, a participant would slowly start to introduce food groups back into their diet, so that they can see which foods may have been secretly irritating them or causing discomfort. Sort of like the idea behind the FODMAP diet for those with bowel issues.
