Introduction
Our intestine is much more than just a digestive organ. Considered by many as our "second brain", it maintains a fascinating relationship with our entire organism. In this article, I invite you to discover this remarkable connection and how to take care of it on a daily basis.
🌿 The intestine: an extraordinary ecosystem
Our digestive system houses a microscopic universe of incredible richness. Billions of microorganisms – bacteria, fungi, viruses – coexist in our intestine and form what is called the gut microbiome.
This unique ecosystem:
- Weighs up to 2 kg – as much as a human brain!
- Contains an extraordinary diversity of microorganisms
- Plays a central role in our digestion and overall well-being
- Communicates constantly with our organism
The good news? We can take care of this ecosystem through our daily lifestyle habits.
🍵 Japanese wisdom: the intestine at the heart of well-being
For millennia, traditional Japanese medicine has placed intestinal balance at the centre of overall well-being. This ancestral wisdom is now recognised by modern nutritional science.
The traditional Japanese diet naturally incorporates many fermented foods :
- 🌾 Miso – fermented soybean paste consumed daily
- 🫘 Natto – fermented soybeans, very rich in nutrients
- 🥬 Tsukemono – seasonal fermented vegetables
- 🍵 Kombucha – fermented tea drink
- 🌿 Amazake – sweet fermented rice drink
These foods have been an integral part of Japanese food culture for centuries – long before modern science took an interest.
How to take care of our intestinal ecosystem
Here are the simplest and most effective approaches to take care of your microbiome on a daily basis :
A varied and fibre-rich diet :
- 🥦 Consume at least 30 different types of vegetables each week
- 🍎 Choose fibre-rich foods – fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains
- 🥛 Incorporate naturally fermented foods – yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, miso
- - Limit ultra-processed foods and foods high in refined sugars
Stress management :
- 🧘 Chronic stress can disrupt the balance of our gut ecosystem
- - Practise relaxation techniques regularly
- 🏃 Moderate physical activity promotes microbial diversity
Respecting natural rhythms :
- 🌙 Our body follows natural circadian rhythms
- - Maintain regular meal times
- 🌙 Avoid eating too late in the evening
Wise use of medications :
- 💊 Some medications can disrupt the natural balance of our microbiome
- 👨⚕️ Always consult your doctor before taking or stopping any treatment
- 🌿 Talk to your doctor about strategies to support your natural well-being
🌾 Polysaccharides: a fascinating area of research
Among the most studied natural substances in the field of nutrition, the polysaccharides hold a special place.
These complex carbohydrates, naturally present in:
- 🍄 Certain mushrooms – such as Shiitake
- 🌊 Seaweeds
- 🌾 Rice bran and other whole grains
Are the subject of numerous scientific studies exploring their potential role in supporting the body's natural balance.
Japanese research is particularly advanced in this field, exploring substances that have been used in traditional Eastern medicine for centuries.
