Resetting Your Gut Microbiome With Elimination Diet

Resetting Your Gut Microbiome With Elimination Diet

Gut microbiome includes:
Over a thousand species of bacteria, as well as viruses, fungi and parasites.
It forms an integral part of our metabolism through digestion and absorption of nutrients.

An elimination diet is a short-term diet designed to isolate the foods causing your gastrointestinal symptoms.

These are often foods that your gut microbes like to eat. When too many microbes are eating too many of these foods, they produce too many byproducts, causing intestinal gas, diarrhea and other symptoms. Starving them is one way to reduce them.
