The Impact of Fiber and Fermented Foods on Gut Microbiome
1:04:29 - 1:11:10 (06:40)
A study conducted over several weeks found that an increased intake of fiber or fermented foods can have a positive impact on gut microbiome, immune and autoimmune function, and inflammatory markers. This suggests that a high carbohydrate, high fiber diet can make individuals better at digesting carbohydrates.

Summary
The digestive tract has a low to high pH gradient, so the gut is not entirely alkaline or acidic. Instead, creating an environment where appropriate microbiota can thrive is crucial to decrease the secretive inflammatory cytokines that impact both brain and bodily health.
