Do you experience constant bloating, skin-related issues, and even get sick despite eating your greens and working out regularly? It’s not you; it’s your gut that’s messing with you. On some days, it makes you feel nauseated. And on other days, you’ll have sudden breakouts and sugar cravings that make no sense. Before you Google these issues and receive a scary answer, have you checked your gut type? Do you have a bloated, toxic, or entirely different kind of gut? Take this quiz to know which gut type you have, and what you need to feed it to get things right.
Do You Know What Your Gut Type Is? Take This Quiz To Find Out!
You have a gastric gut.
Your gut is sensitive and thrives on routine. Stick to regular meals, eat easy-to-digest foods like khichdi, curd, bananas, and cooked veggies, and avoid skipping meals.
You have an inflamed gut.
Cut back on ultra-processed foods and sugar, and load up on calming options like fruits, leafy greens, soaked nuts, and simple home-cooked meals.
You have a stress gut.
Your gut feels everything your mind does. Slow down where you can, prioritise sleep, and add grounding foods like oats, dal, ghee, nuts, and warm herbal teas to your day.
You have a dysbiotic gut.
Your gut bacteria are out of sync. Focus on fibre-rich foods, fermented options like curd or kanji, reduce sugar cravings, and build balanced meals that keep you full longer.
You have an autoimmune gut.
Your gut is extra sensitive and needs gentle care. Stick to foods you tolerate well, keep meals simple, and support your system with anti-inflammatory foods like fruits, veggies, healthy fats, and adequate protein.
Q1. What type of foods should you eat to reduce inflammation in the body?
