Feed Your Microbiome, One Plant at a Time
AI meal plans built around plant diversity, prebiotic-rich foods like onion, garlic, leek and oats, and fermented foods like kimchi, kefir, yogurt and sauerkraut. Designed for everyday gut wellness, not symptom management.
OUTCOME
THE CHALLENGE
"Eat for Your Gut" Sounds Great Until Wednesday
The microbiome research is exciting, but turning it into a real shopping list and weekly cooking schedule is the hard part most people skip.
"I keep buying kimchi or kefir and it goes off because I don't actually work it into meals"
"I want more fiber and more variety, but I don't know how to structure a week around that"
"I want microbiome-friendly eating, not another supplement marketed as a probiotic"
THE SOLUTION
What if Plant Diversity and Fermented Foods Were Built In?
Imagine a weekly plan that quietly rotates 30+ different plants, leans on prebiotic-rich onions, garlic, leeks and oats, and schedules small servings of fermented foods you'll actually eat.
WHY IT WORKS
What a Microbiome-Friendly Plan Looks Like
Real meals shaped around the dietary patterns most consistently linked to a diverse, resilient microbiome.
Built-in plant variety targeting around 30+ different plant foods per week
Prebiotic-rich allium foods like onion, garlic, leek and shallot in everyday recipes
Fiber diversity from legumes, whole grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds and herbs
Oats, barley and other beta-glucan-rich grains rotated into breakfasts and dinners
Small, regular servings of fermented foods: yogurt, kefir, kimchi, sauerkraut and miso
Polyphenol-rich foods like berries, dark leafy greens, herbs, spices and extra-virgin olive oil
Resistant-starch sources like cooled potatoes, green bananas and legumes built into meals
Plenty of legumes and pulses for soluble fiber and microbial fuel
Sensible everyday meals — not ultra-processed "gut health" products and powders
HOW IT WORKS
How It Works
Our AI makes healthy eating simple with a personalized, science-backed approach
STEP 01
Share Your Plant-Variety Baseline
Tell the AI about the plants you already eat, any intolerances, and how adventurous you want to be. The plan is designed for everyday gut wellness, not for managing specific symptoms — see your clinician for that.
STEP 02
Get a Diversity-First Blueprint
Receive a weekly plan that tracks plant variety, prebiotic foods and fermented foods so 30+ plants a week stops being a slogan and becomes a checklist.
STEP 03
Cook Real, Plant-Rich Meals
Follow simple recipes built around legumes, whole grains, vegetables, herbs and small fermented-food servings — designed to feel like normal cooking, not a cleanse.
STEP 04
Rotate Variety Over Time
Each week the plan rotates in different beans, grains, vegetables, herbs and fermented foods so your microbiome stays well-fed and your meals stay interesting.
