Stewed Apple for Gut Health Podcast
In this podcast episode, I explain why stewed apple is one of the simple gut-supportive foods I recommend most often in clinic.
If you have a sensitive or irritated gut, or you struggle with bloating, bowel irregularity or digestive discomfort, this episode will help you understand why cooked apple may be gentler than raw apple.
You’ll hear why stewed apple can be so valuable for gut health, including the role of apple pectin, prebiotic fibre, quercetin and butyrate.
This is not complicated nutrition.
It is a simple, practical food-based approach that may help nurture the gut over time.
