Foods to Improve Your Gut Health

1. Pure Water

For some reason, the most obvious cause of constipation is also the last to be considered: hydration!

When you don’t drink enough water, your body quickly becomes dehydrated. This means any waste in your intestines will become slow and ‘stuck’ because your body can’t add enough moisture to your stools. If this is the case, your stools will be small, hard, dry and lumpy.




2. Fermented Dairy Products

Yogurt and kefir are two types of fermented dairy products that can be invaluable to a constipated gut. They both contain probiotics, which are a type of ‘friendly’ bacteria that helps to break down food that you eat.

Probiotics have been shown to improve digestion and elimination by supporting a healthy gastrointestinal environment and maintaining bowel regularity.

3. Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are tiny black and white seeds from the plant, Salvia hispanica-gel. They’re rich in omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium.

The great thing about chia seeds is that they form a lubricating gel-like consistency when they absorb water. This gel can help to improve stool formation, keeping them moist and making them easier to pass. The omega-3 fatty acids are also renowned for their anti-inflammatory properties, which is highly beneficial to an irritated gut.

4. Legumes

When you’re wondering what to eat when constipated, your best bet is fiber-rich foods. Lentils, beans, and chickpeas are great for preventing and treating constipation.

Bill Gates: Steve Jobs Was the Only One Who Could Save Apple

Steve Jobs was the only one who could save Apple, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates said in a recent interview, according to Bloomberg.

Gates discussed Jobs’ leadership skills in an interview for CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria GPS,” explaining that the former Apple CEO, who died of cancer in 2011, succeeded “even when he failed.”

The Microsoft founder points to the NeXT debut as the living proof that Steve Jobs was the right man for the job, emphasizing that despite the 1988 computer “completely failed” and “was such nonsense,” the Apple chief executive “mesmerized those people.”

Gates also praised Steve Jobs for the way he motivated people, despite the fact that the Apple founder occasionally turned into what the Microsoft billionaire describes as an “a**hole.”

“I have yet to meet any person who” could rival Jobs “in terms of picking talent, hyper-motivating that talent, and having a sense of design of, ‘Oh, this is good. This is not good,’” he said as per Bloomberg.

“He brought some incredibly positive things along with that toughness.”

Gates tough with employees too
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, who created Apple together with Steve Jobs, previously described his former colleague as “very Trumpish,” pointing out that he often avoided arguing with him just because he wanted to avoid conflicts within the company. He revealed Jobs often said what he described as nasty things about company employees.

Meanwhile, Bill Gates, who is no longer actively involved at Microsoft, continues his charity work with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which he founded together with his wife back in 2000.

Gates revealed in the interview that he was also tough with other employees in his early days at Microsoft.

“[We had]a self-selected set of people who were mostly males, I’ll admit, and yes we were pretty tough on each other. And I think sometimes that went too far,” he said.
