A lot of our diet wreaks havoc in the bacterias living in our gut. Some examples are carbohydrates and artificial sweeteners. We need to balance our good and bad bacterias.\xa0Our gut microbiome\xa0is connected to other aspects of our body so we have to take care of it.\nTaking Care of our Digestive System\nYou have to take Fiber-rich foods like apple, banana, orange, strawberry, raspberry, vegetables, etc. Fiber is a type of carbohydrate that the body can\u2019t digest. Though most carbohydrates are broken down into sugar molecules, fiber cannot be broken down into sugar molecules, and instead, it passes through the body undigested. Fiber helps regulate the body\u2019s use of sugars, helping to keep hunger and blood sugar in check.\nSauerkraut is a great probiotic.\xa0Probiotics\xa0are live bacteria and yeasts that are good for you, especially your\xa0digestive system. We usually think of these as germs that cause diseases. But your body is full of bacteria, both good and bad. Probiotics are often called \u201cgood\u201d or \u201chelpful\u201d bacteria because they help keep your gut healthy. You can find probiotics in supplements and some foods, like yogurt. Doctors often suggest them to help with digestive problems.\nHow to Stay Youthful\nEating healthy is the key. Always remember that not all organic foods are pesticide-free. You can try setting up a small garden in your house so you can grow your pesticide-free foods!\nRemove soda in your diet. Some people buy soda to clean their house. Imagine putting that in your body!\nJudy gave us 4 choices and she\xa0said we only have to pick one and follow it.
