There are numerous reasons to eat a diverse diet, from preventing nutrient deficiencies to aiding your digestive system and more. While it can be easy to stick to what we know, it's important for our health to incorporate a variety of protein sources to hit our macronutrient goals.
A diverse diet supports a healthy gut microbiome. This is essential for proper digestion, nutrient absorption, and overall digestive health. A wide variety of foods provides a range of fibers, prebiotics, and probiotics that nourish and promote a diverse population of beneficial gut bacteria.
Eating a variety of foods supports micronutrient balance. Each nutrient plays a specific role in the body, and an inadequate intake of any particular nutrient can have detrimental effects on your health. Eating a diverse range of foods helps to maintain a balanced intake of micronutrients, ensuring that you meet your body's requirements for optimal functioning.
A diverse diet can prevent food sensitivities. Consuming a limited range of foods increases the risk of developing sensitivities to those specific foods. By diversifying your diet, you reduce the likelihood of developing adverse reactions and increase your tolerance to a wider range of foods.
Incorporating new protein sources into your diet can offer numerous health benefits, including a healthier gut, better nutrient absorbtion, fewer food sensitivities, less nutritional deficiencies, and even a more pleasurable food experience!
