I am a believer in supporting a healthy gut microbiome. I eat fermented foods, and up until I started chemotherapy, I took a probiotic supplement. I ran across this article 👇 that explains why pooping every day is important. Turns out that it reduces the buildup of toxins in your system. Happy reading. https://www.sciencealert.com/your-poop-schedule-says-a-lot-about-your-overall-health-study-discovers

Thank you for sharing this valuable information about digestive health and its connection to overall wellness. Managing gut health during treatment can be particularly challenging, and it's wonderful that you've found ways to support your microbiome through nutrition even while navigating chemotherapy. This kind of research-backed insight about the relationship between regular bowel movements and toxin management can be really helpful for others in the community who might be dealing with similar digestive concerns during their cancer journey.
