Nuts are one of the healthiest savory snacks❣️💛❤️

They're a great source of fiber, protein, and healthy fat❣️

This combination provides long-term energy, helps you to feel full and satisfied, and may help with weight loss or management❣️

These are the top 3 nutrients I prioritize when building my plate:

1. Protein

2. Fiber (vegetables & fruit)

3. Heathy fats

Anything after that is simply out of pleasure or if I have room, but those are the top three nutrients that always get priority.

By prioritizing your plate with the right nutrients you will feel full and nutritionally satisfied, reducing the likelihood of overindulging in nutrient-deficient foods that will harm your health and cause cravings for more of the same. Over time, you will also gradually shift your palate to crave healthier foods.

🫘 horse beans- only old-world beans that were eaten also by our ancestors. the rest of the bean kinds were discovered in the new world (America)

Ooh, one of my favourite dinners.

Salmon, avocado (not had any in quite a while!), cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli with sea salt and black pepper.

Juice squeezed from my half orange earlier with apple cider vinegar and soda water.

I've thoroughly enjoyed my food today.

Sure, I'm missing my porridge but it will return 😋.

What are the best foods to eat for a healthy gut?

"Gut Health 101: The Best Foods to Keep Your Tummy Happy (And Why It Matters)"

Let’s talk about your gut—no, not the one you’re trying to tone at the gym. Your gut health is the unsung hero of your overall well-being. A healthy gut means better digestion, a stronger immune system, and even improved mood (thanks to the gut-brain connection).

But with so much buzz around probiotics, prebiotics, and fermented foods, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Here’s a no-BS guide to the best foods for a healthy gut, backed by science and real-life practicality.

1. Fermented Foods (Hello, Probiotics!) Fermented foods are packed with live bacteria that boost your gut microbiome.

Yogurt: Look for “live and active cultures” on the label.

Kefir: A tangy, drinkable yogurt with even more probiotics.

Sauerkraut: Fermented cabbage that’s rich in gut-friendly bacteria.

Kimchi: A spicy Korean staple that’s great for digestion.

Kombucha: A fizzy, fermented tea that’s trendy for a reason.

Pro Tip: Start small—too much too soon can cause bloating.

2. Fiber-Rich Foods (Fuel for Good Bacteria) Your gut bacteria thrive on fiber, which they ferment into beneficial compounds.

Whole grains: Oats, quinoa, and brown rice.

Fruits: Apples, bananas, and berries (with the skin on).

Vegetables: Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and carrots.

Legumes: Lentils, chickpeas, and black beans.

Real-Life Hack: Add a handful of beans to your salad or swap white rice for quinoa.

3. Prebiotic Foods (The Probiotics’ Best Friend) Prebiotics are non-digestible fibers that feed the good bacteria in your gut.

Garlic and onions: Add them to soups, stir-fries, or roasted veggies.

Asparagus: Grill it, steam it, or toss it in a salad.

Chicory root: Often found in coffee substitutes or fiber supplements.

Jerusalem artichokes: A nutty, potato-like veggie that’s prebiotic gold.

Pro Tip: Pair prebiotics with probiotics (e.g., yogurt with banana) for a gut-health power combo.

4. Healthy Fats (Because Your Gut Loves Them Too) Good fats reduce inflammation and support gut lining integrity.

Avocado: Creamy, delicious, and full of fiber.

Olive oil: Drizzle it on salads or roasted veggies.

Nuts and seeds: Almonds, walnuts, chia seeds, and flaxseeds.

Real-Life Hack: Add a tablespoon of chia seeds to your morning smoothie or oatmeal.

5. Bone Broth (Gut-Soothing Superfood) Bone broth is rich in collagen and amino acids that repair the gut lining.

How to use: Sip it like tea, use it as a soup base, or cook grains in it.

DIY option: Simmer bones (chicken, beef, or fish) with veggies for 12–24 hours.

Pro Tip: Look for low-sodium store-bought versions if you’re short on time.

6. Polyphenol-Rich Foods (Gut Microbiome Boosters) Polyphenols are plant compounds that feed good bacteria and fight inflammation.

Berries: Blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries.

Dark chocolate: Go for 70%+ cocoa (in moderation, of course).

Green tea: Sip it hot or cold for a double dose of antioxidants.

Red wine: A glass occasionally can be beneficial (but don’t overdo it).

Real-Life Hack: Add a handful of berries to your yogurt or oatmeal.

7. Hydration (The Unsung Hero of Gut Health) Water keeps your digestive system running smoothly.

Daily goal: Drink half your body weight (in pounds) in ounces.

Herbal teas: Peppermint, ginger, and chamomile soothe the gut.

Pro Tip: Start your day with a glass of warm water and lemon to kickstart digestion.

Conclusion A healthy gut isn’t just about popping probiotics or eating one “Superfood.” It’s about a balanced diet rich in fiber, fermented foods, and anti-inflammatory ingredients. Small, consistent changes—like adding sauerkraut to your sandwich or swapping chips for nuts—can make a big difference over time.

One Last Thing: Listen to your body. If a food makes you feel bloated or uncomfortable, it might not be right for you. Gut health is personal—find what works for you.

Saturated fats are primarily animal-based fats (with the exception of some plants). Unlike healthy unsaturated fats that are liquid at room temperature, saturated fats are solid at room temperature. Saturated fats are the inflammatory fats, while unsaturated fats are anti-inflammatory. Regularly consuming saturated fats may raise cholesterol and increase risk of heart disease. It can also contribute to high blood sugar and fatty liver disease. If you consume it, it is recommended you do not exceed 13 grams/day. Lean towards your anti-inflammatory and brain health fats, the unsaturated fats.
