gut health

Our gut, often referred to as the 'second brain’, holds a complex network of neurons and neurotransmitters, playing a pivotal role not only in digestion but also in emotional well-being and overall health. The diverse community of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microbes in our digestive tract influences various physiological functions, including digestion, immunity, and even mental health. Central to maintaining a thriving and balanced gut microbiome is the composition of our diet.

We’re into our second month of autumn and soon, as the days begin to grow shorter and colder, we’ll begin turning to the winter foods we all love so much - stews, curries and soups. Of course we can enjoy these dishes any time of the year, and one such dish that should be enjoyed all year round because of its purported health benefits, is bone broth.
