The first thing that came to mind was plant based food and fiber which I know in past weeks we have talked about being healthy for the gut microbiome. I always eat some type of fiber, or plant based food because it is known for being &#8220;healthy&#8221;, but I usually don&#8217;t directly think of my microbial communities. The same would go for eating less processed foods which may increase &#8220;bad&#8221; bacteria. Overall, I would list these as unintentional choices because I don&#8217;t eat this knowing that I am improving my microbial communities. This week we also focused on prebiotics and probiotics, which I would say are intentional choices of helping create a positive impact on the microbial communities. These are known to help increase the &#8220;good&#8221; bacteria and microbial communities and are usually taken for that purpose of some sort. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weeks prompt asked us what choices we make in terms of nutritional\/food consumption that may have an impact on our microbial communities.
