Gut health, minus the nonsense.

Your liver and kidneys detox 24/7 — no juice required. A varied, fibre-rich diet does more for gut health than any cleanse.

Unless you have coeliac disease, wheat allergy or a diagnosed sensitivity, there is usually no need to avoid gluten. Many gluten-containing foods, such as wholegrain bread, pasta and cereals, can contribute fibre and support a balanced diet.

Probiotics are not one-size-fits-all. Evidence tends to be strain-specific and condition-specific. For many people, a good starting point is regular meals, adequate fibre, plant variety and fermented foods if tolerated.

Mild bloating can happen after eating, especially after larger meals or higher-fibre foods. But persistent, painful, sudden or worsening bloating should be discussed with your GP or a healthcare professional.

Refined carbs in excess might. Wholegrains, legumes and starchy veg are among the most gut-protective foods we know of.

Beans, oats, onions, garlic and frozen berries beat almost any superfood powder — and cost a fraction.
