Nourishing Your Gut: The Vital Role of Fiber

Nourishing Your Gut: The Vital Role of Fiber

November 13, 20231 min read

Microbes thrive on the richness of complex carbs found in fiber. Unfortunately, our modern diet, often rich in simple carbs from sodas and packaged snacks, fails to sufficiently reach the gut's microbial community. This lack of fiber starves our gut microbiota, leading to reduced diversity.

When deprived of fiber, gut bacteria face starvation, risking their decline or resorting to consuming the protective mucus lining of the gut. This mucus acts as a shield against pathogens, preventing inflammation and disease. The crucial lesson here is clear: nourish your gut microbes with fiber to prevent them from feeding on your own protective barriers.

Quitting my demanding corporate IT job at a Customer Relationship Management company was a life-changing decision. Burnout pushed me to explore new horizons, leading me to culinary arts, functional nutrition, and sales training. Each step reignited my passion and guided me back to technology with a renewed purpose: to help others make a bigger impact. Now, I thrive in empowering service-based businesses to harness CRM technology to stand out, and build lasting, meaningful connections that drive sustainable growth.
