I know that kombucha is good for gut health, but I never really looked too deep into it and why it’s “so healthy” for you. I try to drink it often, but it’s only whenever I feel like I haven’t been eating very healthy recently and this will help me feel better. This probably doesn’t make that much sense, but I have to admit that’s what I do! I do actually enjoy drinking kombucha so a lot of times it’s just for the taste. Most of the foods that I eat that do have an effect on gut health, I eat just because I like that food or I’m in the mood for that. For instance, yogurt. I don’t eat it a lot because of the health benefits, I eat it because I want a quick and easy breakfast. One of the foods I forget that does play a role in gut microbiota is kimchi which we eat frequently in my household like BBQ for dinner. Now that I’ve taken this class, I want to be more mindful of what I am eating not just for the taste but because of the benefits that could come out of it!
