Blueberries are packed with antioxidants and polyphenols, which help reduce inflammation and protect the gut lining, while also offering fibre that feeds beneficial bacteria. Bananas, especially when ripe, are rich in soluble fibre that supports smooth digestion and act as a natural prebiotic, helping to nourish the friendly microbes in your gut.
