3 Beverages for Gut Health

Looking for something different to drink that will support a healthy gut? 🥤

Try these ➡️

🫚 Golden Milk

Golden milk gets its color from turmeric. It’s made by warming 2 cups of a milk of your choice on the stove with 1 tsp of turmeric powder and any other spices or sweeteners to taste (cinnamon, ginger, cardamon, black pepper, vanilla, maple syrup, etc.) Turmeric has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties to benefit the gut!

🧉 Kombucha

Kombucha is a fizzy fermented tea that can be purchased at the store or made at home (you’ll need a SCOBY for the fermentation process). It’s rich in B vitamins as well as probiotic bacteria to support the gut microbiome.

🍵 Green Tea

Green tea is rich in catechins, which are antioxidant polyphenols that have been shown to promote a healthy gut microbiome.
