How is this recipe good for supporting the microbiome?

Lentils

Packed with fermentable fibres and resistant starch, which your gut bacteria convert into short-chain fatty acids like butyrate this directly supports your gut lining, reducing inflammation, and improving overall gut function.

Garlic & Onion

Rich in prebiotic fibres (like inulin and fructooligosaccharides) that selectively feed beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacteria, helping to shift your microbiome in a more favourable direction.

Extra virgin olive oil

High in polyphenols like oleocanthal, which support a healthier balance of gut bacteria and help reduce low grade inflammation within the gut.
