Fibers and Omega-3

Do you know what the ingestion of dietary fiber together with omega-3 fatty acids can do to your intestines? 

​

Living in our belly you have more than 1.000 different species of microorganisms. They live with us 24/7, all the time. Sharing our meals, reacting to our stress levels and even enjoying when we go out for a walk. 

Not all of those bacteria are good bacteria. There is good bacteria and bad bacteria in this population in the intestines. There is a necessity to have a balance in between this population, because this balance or homeostasis, brings the health to our gut and automatically to our whole body.

​

One of the secrets of great health is to ingest enough amounts of dietary fiber together with abundant and high qualitative Omega-3. The reason is because when we have abundance of both substances in the gut, our bacteria can produce what is called SCFA - Short Chain Fatty Acids. SCFAs are very important molecules that can keep us free from diseases, giving us enough energy to enjoy life.
