These healing recipes include plant-based foods and drinks that are easy to make and are beneficial for both gut and immune health. Included is a list of probiotic foods and prebiotic foods!
Research has shown just how important gut health is to overall health. Gut health is so intertwined with the brain, that it’s been deemed the ‘second brain’. It’s believed that 90% of serotonin receptors are located in the gut, showing just how closely linked gut health is to mental health, too. An unhealthy gut has been linked to food sensitivities, allergies, IBS, sugar cravings, anxiety, depression, acne, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, fatigue, ADHD, and much more. Put simply, heal the gut: heal your mind, body, and soul. I’ve gathered some of my favorite anti-inflammatory and gut healing foods from some of the best food bloggers out there + some useful tidbits to help you on your journey to optimum health, blood sugar, and digestion! Ready to live a healthier lifestyle? Let’s get started!
How to Improve Gut Health Naturally
Include probiotic-rich fermented foods in your diet.
Include fermentable fibers a.k.a. prebiotics into your diet.
Eliminate high inflammatory foods, GMO foods, inorganic foods, highly processed and refined foods, and packaged foods, and limit dairy, gluten, and refined + unrefined sugars of any sort.
Consume more healthy fats and omega fatty acids such as those found in coconut oil, avocados, walnuts, and hemp seeds.
Include sprouted grains and seeds in your diet.
Take a probiotic capsule daily and/or digestive enzymes.
Set aside some time each day to exercise, even if it’s just ten minutes of stretching.
Get plenty of sleep and reduce stress as much as possible.
Incorporate foods high in antioxidants, such as blueberries, strawberries, artichokes, kale, and beans.
Eat whole foods.
Consume a wide variety of spices.
Prebiotics v.s. Probiotics + Health Benefits
Prebiotics are fibers that are not easily digested and ferment in the gut. The process of fermentation feeds the ‘good’ bacteria in the gut. Benefits:
Helps increase the absorption of much-needed vitamins, minerals, and nutrients.
Provides a cleansing and detoxing effect on the digestive system, helping to eliminate ‘bad’ gut bacteria and pathogens.
Helps support a healthy immune system.
Reduces inflammation in the digestive system.
Aids in weight loss and maintaining a healthy weight.
Probiotics are bacteria that are the by-products of the fermentation process in fermented foods. Probiotics are considered to be ‘good’ bacteria and help feed the gut more of what it needs. Benefits:
It increases the good bacteria in the gut and decreases the bad.
It can replenish and repopulate the gut with good bacteria after the overuse of antibiotics.
Provides the groundwork to help improve every aspect of health, which we all now know is rooted in the gut, including improving mental health, eliminating allergies, improving heart health, helping digestive disorders, reducing sugar cravings, weight reduction, improving your immune system, and much more.

Dependent ingredients are things you harvest, like crops, gathering foods, artisan goods, animal products, or in this case, tree sap. I pick maple bars because even though they cost 200g per bar, they heal most of your health, and you can get they any time of year.
Pasta: Pasta dishes are a great option for large groups, as they can be prepared in advance and are easy to serve. You could make a big pot of spaghetti or fettuccine with a variety of sauces to choose from, such as tomato-based, creamy or pesto.
Finding Secret Note #10 and then meeting Mr. Qi at floor 100 of the Skull Cavern will award the player with a cutscene in which Mr. Qi gives the player "Iridium snake milk", which will increase maximum health by 25 points.
Taco bar and big pans of baked ziti are my two least expensive but easy options. A little more expensive is pulled pork (can make ahead!) and baked beans and salad but you could also do pulled chicken thighs. Taco/nacho bar works, you can also premake some casserole type dishes and just warm in oven day of…
Spicy Eel is definitely a fan favorite when it comes to top cooking recipes in Stardew Valley. It provides a +1 Luck boost and a +1 Speed boost for 7 minutes. It also grants players 115 Energy and 51 Health points. Given its easy ingredients, it's a very cheap and achievable food to make.
Sleeping. Sleeping restores the player's initial energy level for the next day. Going to bed at or before 12:00AM normally restores energy to its maximum.
Ancient Fruit is the most valuable crop you can grow in Stardew Valley. This special crop requires a little extra effort and attention to grow, but they are worth crazy money and are well worth the trouble! 500g for your first harvest.
