paleo diet and gut health
The paleo diet is a way of eating that focuses on consuming whole and unprocessed foods that were available to our ancestors during the Paleolithic era. It typically emphasizes lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds, while excluding grains, legumes, dairy products, and processed foods. Gut health refers to the balance and well-being of the digestive system, specifically the gut microbiome. It involves maintaining a diverse and beneficial community of microorganisms in the gut, which play a crucial role in digestion, immune function, and overall health. The paleo diet, with its emphasis on whole foods, can potentially support gut health by providing essential nutrients and fiber while minimizing intake of potentially harmful substances found in processed foods.
