WEEKLY CHALLENGE!
It’s PREBIOTICS week.
Prebiotics are one of the unsung heroes of great digestive health.
They are plant fibers that can be found mainly in complex carbs.
They feed the good bacteria in your gut, and they’re loaded with potential health benefits:
They can keep your blood sugar and cholesterol levels in check.
They help give your immune system a boost.
They help you feel fuller longer.
They support a healthy digestive system.
Your challenge: eat a DIFFERENT prebiotic food THREE TIMES this week.
Here are some choices:
Apples
Asparagus
Bananas
Cocoa
Cooked and cooled potatoes
Dandelion greens
Flaxseed
Garlic
Leeks
Oats
Onions
PLUS … cooked then cooled potatoes (as in potato salad) contain resistant starch, another form of prebiotic.
Which three will YOU be adding? Let me know below!
