Gut-Friendly Eating Made Easy: Kimchi, Bone Broth and Everyday Meals

Looking after your gut does not need a complicated plan. Small, tasty habits go a long way, and a few fermented and slow-cooked foods make them easy. This Women's Month, here is a simple week of everyday meals.

What You'll Need

• Kimchi (250g, 500g or 1kg jar)
• Dr Broth bone broth, 750ml
• Kimchi Probiotic Tonic or Ginger Water Kefir, for a drink
• Eggs, rice, vegetables and a little patience

Method in a Nutshell

1. Start the day with eggs and a spoon of kimchi on the side.
2. At lunch, add a few slices of kimchi to a rice bowl or a toasted sandwich.
3. For supper, warm a cup of bone broth and sip it, or use it instead of water when cooking rice or soup.
4. Keep a bottle of kimchi tonic or ginger water kefir in the fridge as a tangy afternoon drink.
5. Start small. If fermented foods are new to you, begin with a spoonful and see how you feel.

A note on health

Fermented foods and bone broth are tasty parts of a varied diet. They are not a cure for anything, so if you have a health condition or are pregnant, check with your doctor or dietitian about what suits you.
