Gut Health Support: 7 Science-Backed Ways to Boost Digestion


Discover seven science-backed ways to boost digestion and gut health, all aimed at practical improvements for daily life. When you focus on gut health support, small, consistent changes can ease bloating, improve comfort after meals, and support overall wellness. This approach blends everyday habits with evidence-based insights so you can feel steady, energized, and more in tune with your digestive system. Seven core strategies underpinning gut health support include: choosing a diverse, fiber-rich diet that feeds beneficial microbes; incorporating fermented foods and probiotic-rich options; staying well hydrated throughout the day; timing meals consistently to support digestion; adding regular physical activity; practicing stress management techniques; and prioritizing sufficient sleep. Together, these steps help balance gut function, reduce gas and bloating, and promote smoother digestion. To empower both individuals and organizations, InnerBuddies offers a robust Gut Health Operating System that powers science-backed gut health support at scale. The platform features a Gut Microbiome Health Index (0–100), derived from an exclusive IP deal with EAFIT University in Colombia, plus detailed Bacteria Abundances and Bacteria Functions that show how you compare against a healthy cohort across multiple metabolic pathways. Target Group analysis dives into how specific populations—whether Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, Power Sport, or Skin & Hair Health—are influenced by gut microbiome function, delivering actionable insights for targeted wellness goals. This is complemented by Personalized Nutrition Advice, using data from 3-day food diaries and stool samples to tailor recommendations, and Personalized Probiotics and Prebiotics advice to match your individual microbiome profile. InnerBuddies also brings these capabilities directly to consumers through gut test solutions, so you can access the same evidence-based framework outside of a corporate setting.
