Modern science views humans not simply as a separate biological species, but as a complex "superorganism" consisting of human cells and trillions of microorganisms. Our bodies are inhabited by about 38 trillion bacterial cells, which even exceeds the number of our own cells (about 30 trillion). This vast microbial community - the microbiome - is our invisible inner world, which controls immunity, metabolism, mood and even eating habits.

Summer and early autumn are traditionally associated with fresh vegetables, fruits and various berries. It seems completely natural to change the heavy winter diet to light salads. However, modern science considers this change in diet not just as a way to get vitamins, but as the most important tool for nourishing our "superorgan" - the intestinal microbiome.

The arrival of summer is traditionally associated with a change in diet: heavy winter food is replaced by fresh vegetables, herbs, and the first berries. For our body, this is not just a change in menu, but a critically important stage in the renewal of the gastrointestinal tract (GI) and its main "superorgan" - the intestinal microbiome.

Every year, the medical and scientific community celebrates World Digestive Health Day to draw attention to the critical role of the gastrointestinal tract (GI) in our lives. For a long time, the digestive system was considered only as a mechanism for processing food, but today we know that it is the center of our immunity, metabolism and even mental health.

Holidays, family gatherings, and spring and summer picnics are traditionally associated with joy and relaxation. However, for our gastrointestinal tract (GI), this period often turns into a real test. Consuming large amounts of processed foods, meat, fried foods, sweets, and alcohol leads to a feeling of heaviness, flatulence (bloating), heartburn, and bowel movements.
