Do you know we have the same number of bacteria in our body as the number of human cells that make us up? The majority of these bacteria live in our gut, comprising what is known as the gut microbiome.🌺
The science of gut microbiome is evolving so rapidly, sometimes it’s overwhelming for us physicians as well. Traditionally, gut microbiome was considered as crucial for our gut health, but now its role is also being linked to mental health (gut-brain communication), weight loss, heart health, and a reduced risk of several chronic diseases.🌺
And how do we maintain a healthy gut microbiome?
It’s good to start with the basics: Include one probiotic (containing friendly bacteria) at least once a day in your food. One of the easiest ways to achieve this is to have curds daily.🌺

I have black (rice) vinegar every day. Also found a lovely, tasty Korean version made from plums. I’ll send a photograph if I find it again. There are some kinds of yoghurt I can’t have. Icelandic yoghurt (skyr) is perfect for me – all of the benefits you have outlined here.

The sheer variety available now is mind-boggling. To imagine the day when the only curd available was the one you set yourself at home! 😀

I know right? I have some friends who make their own in their kitchen. The most amazing taste sensation you’ve ever had.

We still set normal curd in the kitchen everyday, but not Greek yoghurts and such.
