Episode notes
The foods we consume have a significant impact on our microbiome. Fermented foods like Kemchi, Kefir, and Kambucha play a crucial role in promoting positive effects on the body by interacting with the host in a beneficial way. Polyphenols found in colorful foods like onions, grapes, nuts, green tea, and even red wine and grape juice, are important as they can be broken down by microbes to produce essential chemicals. Polyunsaturated fatty acids, known as poofus, are vital for the functioning of membranes and cells and can directly affect the microbiome. Conversely, processed foods and artificial sweeteners have been consistently linked to negative effects on the microbiome, emphasizing the importance of avoiding them in our diet.
