Taking care of your microbiota: Tips and benefits
Small changes in your diet and routine can make a big difference in your bacterial flora. Improve your mood, reduce pain and prevent diseases with these tips to take care of your microbiota.
What is microbiota?
The microbiota is a group of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa that are necessary for maintaining our well-being. They are present in various parts of our body, such as the mouth, small intestine, large intestine and skin. They help our immune system distinguish between harmful and beneficial bacteria.
Consequences of an unbalanced microbiota
Dysbiosis is an imbalance in the intestinal microbiota. This can loosen the junctions of the digestive mucosa, allowing unwanted substances to enter the circulation. It also affects the intestinal mucus, which acts as a defensive barrier. As a result, it can damage the immune system, leading to allergies and autoimmune diseases.
How does microbiota affect your brain?
- Microorganisms produce substances that enter the blood and reach the brain, causing damage.
- They influence your immune system, generating more inflammation that affects the brain.
- They stimulate cells of the enteric nervous system, which can influence the rest of the nervous system.
- They affect the cells of the intestine, which produce hormones that regulate hunger.
Composition of bacterial flora
The microbiota is determined by several factors:
External factors:
- The diet you follow.
- Your daily habits.
- The infections you have had throughout your life.
- Exposure to different microbiotas.
Internal factors:
- Genetic profile.
- Immune system.
- Hormonal balance.
What is the best diet for the microbiota?
The Mediterranean diet has neuroprotective effects, while a diet high in trans fats and sugars damages your brain.
Diets rich in soluble fiber feed beneficial bacteria such as Prevotella and Bifidobacterium, which produce short-chain fatty acids such as butyrate, helping to keep your gut healthy and your mucosa impermeable, which generates an anti-inflammatory effect and reduces anxiety.
Increase your polyphenol intake by consuming:
- Nuts.
- Mushrooms such as shiitake.
- Soluble fiber.
- Green tea.
- Olive oil.
- RED FIG™
How to improve bacterial flora?
The first step is to improve the environment for your microbiota by changing your diet.
Changes in flora can take up to a year, but some can occur in just one day when switching from a high-fat, high-sugar diet to a low-fat, high-fiber diet.
Recommended prebiotics:
- Inulin.
- Fructooligosaccharides (FOS).
- Galactooligosaccharides (GOS).
- Resistant Starch.
- Pectin.
- Beta-Glucans.
- Xylooligosaccharides (XOS).
- Polydextrose.
- Arabinoxylan.
- Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs).
- RED FIG™
Practical tips to improve the microbiota
- Increase your consumption of soluble fiber: Incorporate more fruits, vegetables and legumes into your diet.
- Consume polyphenols: Add nuts and mushrooms like shiitake to your diet.
- Reduce foods high in trans fats: Opt for a more balanced diet rich in vegetables.
