Nutrition, Diet & Healthy Living

Fiber is a Superfood

​Fiber in plants increases the growth of healthful bacteria, which  converts the soluble and fermentable types of fiber into short chain fatty acids, promoting great health benefits to help: ……………………………………..

*Reduce inflammation
*Lower high levels of blood sugar, cholesterol and blood pressure
*Reduce hunger
*Produce beneficial mucus that lines your colon to help prevent the harmful bacteria from penetrating there.

Eating foods containing soluble fiber help the good bacteria to overgrow the bad ones.  Soluble fiber is found in vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, nuts and other edible seeds.

Your current diet and lifestyle determines which bacteria live in your gut. Here are four ways you can change your colon bacteria:
1. Increase your intake of vegetables, beans, fruits, unground whole grains, nuts and other seeds.

2. Daily exercise promotes the growth of your colony of healthful bacteria.

3. Avoid mammal meat, fried foods, foods with added sugar and all drinks with sugar in them.

4. Regular chiropractic care allows your central nervous system to function appropriately by taking irritation off of the nerves going to the stomach and/or intestines, which positively influences your digestive system and the health of your gut.

Make chiropractic a regular health habit for the whole family to ensure your spines and nervous systems are working the best they can.
