Feed Your Gut, Heal Your Trauma: Prebiotics and the Microbiome

Trauma can significantly impact the health of your microbiome.

Trauma can cause reductions in beneficial bacteria and increases in potentially harmful bacteria.

These changes in the microbiome can persist even after the initial trauma, especially if chronic stress continues.

Intergenerational trauma (IGT) can affect us in many ways, including the delicate balance of our gut microbiome.

Prebiotics are a type of non-digestible fiber that act as "food" for the beneficial bacteria in your gut. Think of them as fertilizer for your microbiome, helping those good bacteria flourish!

A healthy gut microbiome is linked to better mental and emotional well-being, which is crucial for recovering from IGT.

By incorporating prebiotic-rich foods into your diet, you can support your gut health and aid in your journey of healing from intergenerational trauma.
