Rebalance Your Gut Naturally in Just One Week
This 7-day plan is a gentle, food-first reset designed to support digestion, reduce bloating, and nourish your gut microbiome—without harsh detoxes or expensive supplements.
🌱 How It Works
Each day focuses on simple food choices, habits, and supportive routines. You’ll eat real food, drink herbal teas, and pay attention to your body’s natural cues. No calorie counting. No fasting. Just nourishment.
🧭 Daily Themes
Day 1: Reduce Sugar & Packaged Foods
Begin by removing processed sugar and ultra-processed snacks. Focus on whole foods: eggs, greens, fruit, oats, veg, nuts.
Day 2: Add Prebiotic Fibre
Support your beneficial gut bugs with foods like cooked onion, leek, garlic, green bananas, oats, and legumes.
Day 3: Include Probiotic Foods
Start with a tablespoon of natural yoghurt or a spoon of sauerkraut daily. Other options: kefir, miso, kombucha.
Day 4: Focus on Cooked Veggies & Soups
Give your gut a break with soft, cooked vegetables. Make a brothy veggie soup or try bone broth with rice or quinoa.
Day 5: Support Liver & Digestion
Add lemon water in the morning, bitter greens at lunch (rocket, dandelion), and herbal teas like dandelion or ginger.
Day 6: Reduce Bloat & Inflammation
Limit raw brassicas (cabbage, broccoli) and fizzy drinks. Choose soft-cooked greens, warm lemon water, and simple meals.
Day 7: Nourish with Variety
Create a colourful bowl with fermented veg, lean protein, good fats, whole grains, and herbs. Breathe. Walk. Reflect.
