As we near the autumn equinox, it’s a great time to revisit eating seasonally and cook up some cosy meals with locally available produce.1https://hubbub.org.uk/how-to-eat-seasonally-in-the-uk-a-month-by-month-guide There’s no better way to nurture your gut during this cosy season than with fresh, seasonal vegetables.
Why eat seasonally?
Eating seasonally gives you fresher produce with better nutritional content. Plus, it’s better for the environment as it cuts down on transportation and supports sustainability.2https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/discover/gardening-tips/guide-to-seasonal-food#rt-september By choosing locally grown produce, you can support your local farmers and economy. You’ll also get the benefit of a more affordable, diverse range of fruits and vegetables. Remember, the key to a healthy gut is a diverse and balanced diet. Seasonal eating is a simple yet powerful way to keep your gut happy and balanced, all while enjoying what nature offers at its best.
