Fresh Salad-Spiration feat. Roasted Garlic

Let’s spring into April with good gut health! Our gut is “the largest organ of immunity in the body.” There are several ways we can ensure our guts are healthy. First, by having a daily source of probiotics, high fiber and plant-based foods in our diet. Many studies show that people who consume higher amounts of fiber have a greater diversity in their gut. The bacteria in our gastrointestinal tract feed off of the food we eat and in return these good bacteria keep our bodies healthy. Therefore, by combining natural sources of probiotics, plant-based and high fiber foods we can create an environment for growth of healthy bacteria.
