Fruit and Vegetables || Gut Health and Nutrition Diversity
The microbiome of fruit and vegetables plays a significant role in promoting diversity in the gut. Fruits and vegetables are teeming with fiber, which serves as food for the beneficial bacteria in the gut. When we consume a variety of fruits and vegetables, we introduce a wide range of nutrients and plant compounds that nourish and support different strains of bacteria in our gut.
The diverse array of bacteria in our gut has been linked to various health benefits, including improved digestion, enhanced immune function, and even mood regulation. By fostering a thriving microbiome through a colorful and varied diet, we can create an environment that supports the growth of beneficial bacteria while keeping harmful ones in check.
Bacterial diversity in the gut plays an important role in human health. The crucial question, however, is where are the sources of this diversity? It is known that an important part of the maternal microbiome is transferred to the baby at birth, and the same happens during the breastfeeding period via breast milk. Further sources were yet to be discovered.
A microbiome is the totality of all microorganisms that colonise a macroorganism (human, animal, plant) or a part of it, for example the intestine or a fruit. While the individual microbiomes are becoming better understood, little is known about their connections. "The proof that microorganisms from fruits and vegetables can colonise the human gut has now been established for the first time,"
This suggests that the consumption of fruit and vegetables, especially in infancy, has a positive influence on the development of the immune system in the first three or so years of life, as the intestinal microbiome develops during this time. But even after that, a good diversity of gut bacteria is beneficial for health and resilience. "It simply influences everything. Diversity influences the resilience of the whole organism; higher diversity conveys more resilience,"
