All this restaurant food has done wonders for your gut - if you consider the establishment of a miniature ecosystem complete with its own weather patterns and the potential for a gut-based government. The gut microbiome, once a tranquil community of helpful microbes, has now been transformed into a thriving metropolis. The high intake of processed foods has led to an unprecedented boom in construction, with skyscrapers made of cheeseburgers and pizza slices. Meanwhile, the gut flora has evolved into a sophisticated species, capable of producing their own reality TV shows and demanding a referendum on the future of digestion. Experts warn that if you don't start feeding your gut some fiber soon, it might just declare independence and start its own food truck business. So, if you notice your stomach growling for more than just food, it might be the gut's latest attempt to raise awareness about the lack of greens in your diet.
