If you want to lose weight, or maintain your healthy weight, you need to know about the link between bad gut bacteria and weight gain.

In studies of twins in which one was obese and the other was thin, the twins’ gut bacteria were completely different! The obese one suffered from bad gut health, and—you guessed it—the thin twin had good gut health.

That compelling evidence indicates that if you eat foods that enhance good gut bacteria, you’ll also be able to sustain a healthy body weight.

The reason your gut exerts influence over your weight is because it determines how much energy your body absorbs, and also lets you know if you are hungry or full.

If you’re like me, it’s VERY important for your body to notify you when you’re full or you’ll just keep eating and eating and eating.

Gut health is partially hereditary, but you can change the balance of your gut bacteria by consuming foods that promote good gut health.

Let’s delve into how gut health affects your weight.

Facts on Gut Bacteria

Your large intestine contains good and bad bacteria. Consuming foods that encourage the good bacteria to flourish makes your gut healthy and improves your digestion.

The bacteria perform functions like telling your immune system to ward off infection and producing vitamin K and other vitamins.

Akkermansia muciniphila and Christensenella minuta are good gut bacteria that aid in weight loss. They are found in thin people and linked with avoiding weight gain. The holy grail of bacteria!

The Difference Between Good Gut Bacteria and Bad Gut Bacteria

Good gut bacteria help your body perform necessary functions such as fighting off bad bacteria, viruses, and fungi; balancing your gut microbe so that there’s more good bacteria than bad; preventing inflammation; and good digestion.

Bad gut bacteria cause autoimmune disorders like type 2 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis.

You might have too much bad gut bacteria if you suffer from gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and heartburn.

Other indications of an excess of bad gut bacteria include eating a high-sugar diet, chronic exhaustion, not sleeping well, food intolerances, irritated skin, and weight changes.

The great news is that you can fix your imbalanced gut bacteria and be super healthy just by modifying your diet! You’ll most likely lose weight, too.

Items on the list above can be occasional treats, but remember that link between bad gut bacteria and weight gain.

The occasional indulgence in foods and drinks that are bad for your gut bacteria is as forgivable as it is inevitable. If it somehow happens (so quickly that you didn’t even realize it passed through your lips), just leave the incident in your past and move on.

If you follow the healthy gut bacteria rules (most of the time) you can fix your gut, be trim, and feel great.
