Having green bananas helps promote a healthy gut microbiome. They are rich in resistant starch and can regulate blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity.

Ginger stimulates the movement of food through the digestive system, thereby decreasing constipation and bloating.

Bone broth is high in glutamic acid, which helps to aid and heal leaky guts and maintain the functioning of the intestinal wall. 

Apple stew contains pectin which promotes the growth of healthy bacteria and reduces inflammation in the gut.
