Turns out taking prebiotic supplements is less effective for remodelling the intestinal microbiome than increasing the diversity of prebiotic fibre forms within your diet. This reinforces the idea that in most instances we have greater influence on our gut health through our dietary choices than therapeutic interventions.
There are occasions where probiotic supplements are indicated & will prove incredibly useful but if you’re just going for optimal intestinal health on a daily basis then more abundant whole, plant based foods are your golden ticket. Fermented foods will always be handy too - they give prebiotics & probiotics in a perfect pair.
Halve the carrots & slice the onions, toss with 1 teaspoon avocado oil, season & roast at 200°C for 30 minutes.
Add to a bowl, toss with the lentils, chopped parsley & the juice of a lemon then serve!.
