But first, get your GUTRIGHT®!
GUTRIGHT® is a Modbiotic® formulation. It is a concentrated form of naturally healthy modbiotic compounds that were once found in abundance in our traditional diet, which was loaded with skins, peels, seeds and fiber.
GUTRIGHT® is simply supporting the balance we once enjoyed when we ate a more natural diet. Just as we may supplement our diet to replace the deficient micronutrients with a multi formulation, or take extra fibre or supplement with oils; we can “spike” our diet with modbiotic compounds with GUTRIGHT ®.
Your modern diet and lifestyle may be directly affecting your gut. Our food has changed and too much sugar and too little plant polyphenols may be having a massive impact on your gut. Polyphenols are healthy parts of the peels, leaves, seeds, and sprouts of plants that impact your gut microbiome. A diverse microbiome is the epicentre of your gut health.
Just as we look to fortify our diet with foods high in nutrients, vitamins and fiber to compensate for our changing foods, eating and farming we can now do the same thing with them for the lower levels of polyphenols in our foods by adding GUTRIGHT® Modbiotics® into your diet.
What makes our gut healthy?
Having the right number of bugs and the right combination of species of bugs for your body is what you are striving for. The majority of these bugs live in and on us because they are in our environment and food. More often than not it is not a deficiency of microbes but usually, a problem occurs when we get an overgrowth of the wrong types of bugs or even an overgrowth of what may be considered healthy bugs that disrupt the balance. We can have too much of a good thing.
Our eating has changed & our food has changed
Our food has changed due to farming techniques, harvesting, storage and food preparation techniques along with our food choices and purchases.
Per gram of fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and grains, we now consume:
- More sugar
- Less fiber
- Less Modbiotic® compounds; from fiber, pulp, skins, peels, and seeds
- Pesticides that may alter the microbes in our gut
- Fewer micronutrients
We eat a “balanced” diet but not a varied diet
We eat the same food all year round and we don’t eat with seasons. In nature, we would cycle between different fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, legumes and grains through the seasons. Eating what is fresh and available for the season and then having months off while we wait for it to return. We have been taught to have a balanced diet by balancing our food groups in each meal or day but we tend to select the same foods, our favorite foods to consume most days, all year round.
We do not have regular intermittent fasting. In nature we go through phases of feast and famine, our metabolism learns to adapt to changing ratios of protein, carbohydrates, and fats and eating at different times of the day.
Without this variation and change, there is a constant food supply for certain microorganisms and deficiencies of favorite foods for other microbes and that will fuel an overgrowth of some and deficiencies of others. We need diversity.
