Gut Health is Key to Immunity: Strong Microbiota Fights Disease, Boosts Health

• A balanced gut microbiota, comprising beneficial bacteria, is crucial for overall health and disease prevention.
• Dr. S. K. Gautam from Ganesh Shankar Vidyarthi Medical College, Kanpur, emphasizes that a strong gut microbiota enhances immunity.
• Healthy gut bacteria aid digestion, nutrient absorption, and combat harmful bacteria, reducing issues like gas, constipation, and acidity.
• Diet plays a vital role: yogurt, raw onion, garlic, bananas, sprouted grains, porridge, and green vegetables promote good gut health.
• Harmful habits like excessive fried/junk food, sugar, and unnecessary antibiotics weaken gut microbiota and immunity.

Why It Matters: Prioritizing gut health through diet and lifestyle strengthens immunity and keeps diseases at bay.
