🤸‍♂️ Exercise can change your gut microbiome 🚴

A new study of middle-aged adults in Canada (just regular people—not athletes) found that exercising 150+ minutes per week had a positive effect on the gut microbiome.

Most people focus on foods to support a healthy gut. This study shows that exercise works too 🙌

What’s even more exciting is that a healthier gut microbiome could translate into better:

✔️ Skin

✔️ Mood

✔️ Digestion

✔️ Metabolism

✔️ Brain Health

✔️ Immune Function

✔️ And Overall Health

This study showed that the gut microbiome responded more to a longer duration of exercise, whereas the exercise intensity didn’t matter.
