Gut health roadblock

You often suffer from bloating, heartburn or indigestion. The most common cause is an overgrowth of unhealthy gut bacteria that stops the digestive system working properly and alters the way you store fat.

What to eat

Fresh vegetables, steamed or grilled. Lean meats: chicken, turkey, fish, lamb. gluten-free wholegrains: brown or wild rice, oats, millet, buckwheat, quinoa. Fermented vegetables and live yogurt – both contain gut-friendly bacteria that help to reduce bloating, aid digestion and promote weight loss. Papaya contains papain, an enzyme that assists digestion. Ginger Tea is a natural anti-inflammatory that helps with fat burning. Fennel aids digestion, reduces inflammation and has diuretic properties. eat raw or chew on the seeds. avoid Processed foods, yeast, gluten, dairy, fried foods, coffee and alcohol.
