Superfoods are a great way to nourish the gut microbiome as they are packed full of vitamins and nutrients, which help a large array of microorganisms survive.
Turmeric
Turmeric is a great anti-inflammatory spice, indeed one study concluded that turmeric’s “unique anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and ability to modulate gut microbiota make it a potentially useful addition to our collection of treatments for IBS.”
