Orange

Oranges may seem like humble breakfast companions, but boy, this fruit is a champion in the nutrition department.

How so? How about all this: According to the American Institute for Cancer Research, oranges contain a number of phytochemicals, including cryptoxanthin, carotenoids, and flavanoids, that can help fight against a number of cancers. Cryptoxanthin, found in other fruits besides oranges, such as mangos, tangerines, and papayas, has been found to reduce the risk of cervical cancer. Found in many orange-colored fruits and vegetables, carotenoids may inhibit cancer cell growth and aid the immune system. Flavanoids may inhibit tumor growth and can boost the body’s production of detoxifying enzymes. Oranges are also a good source of thiamin, folate, potassium, fiber, and, of course, vitamin C — all of which are necessary for maintaining cell health. Quite the resume for a single fruit.

What constitutes a healthy gut?

A healthy gut microbiome relies on richness and diversity of the bacteria present. Having a wider array of microbes in the gut creates a healthier and more resilient environment, whereas symptoms of an unhealthy gut tend to present themselves when a lack of diversity and balance exists. Research shows that while genetics are a factor, diet has emerged as having substantially more of an impact on the inner workings of your gut, so what you eat truly matters.

Most nutrients, including fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, are absorbed in the small intestine. However, nutrients that are partially digested or undigested, such as resistant starches, fiber, and some protein, can make their way to the colon. Most of the microbiome resides in the colon, so nutrients that reach the colon become a food source for the bacteria. Nondigestible carbohydrates and some undigested protein are fermented in the colon, yielding gases such as methane and carbon dioxide, and short-chain fatty acids.
