At its core, this Spring Gut-Health Detox Salad is a symphony of raw, nutrient-dense vegetables paired with a fermented dressing component. Unlike heavy Caesar salads or cream-based bowls, this recipe focuses on lightness and enzymatic activity. The goal of this specific dish is to introduce various types of plant fibers to your microbiome. Your gut is home to trillions of bacteria, and they thrive on diversity. By combining leafy greens, cruciferous cabbage, and root vegetables like carrots, you are essentially throwing a feast for your beneficial gut microbes.
