RECIPE: GUT HEALING GOLDEN OATS

Bodhi Wellness Golden Oats

Gut Healing Golden Oats

Serves 1

Have you considered that every meal you eat is another opportunity to nourish your body, support your gut and feed your microbiome (the good bugs that live within your gut)?

This gut healing breakfast porridge is a nice variation to your standard porridge, full of gut-friendly ingredients to support a healthy and happy microbiome

Turmeric: a potent anti-inflammatory, supports digestion and liver detoxification
Blueberries: contain polyphenols which work as an antioxidant and promote the growth of certain strains of beneficial bacteria
Pumpkin seeds/pepitas: a wonderful source of fibre and zinc, which is essential for digestion enzyme production and gut healing
Oats:: a great prebiotic to feed your beneficial bacteria living in your gut
Kefir: lots of research on this fermented dairy product that contains live bacteria, making it a great probiotic to support a healthy, happy microbiome. Plus a nice source of protein to keep you feeling fuller for longer
Honey: early research is recognising honey as having potential prebiotic effects on our microbiome (plus it tastes absolutely beautiful with all the other ingredients in the porridge)
