Your gut has influence over, well, pretty much all of your body. It’s something we covered with naturopath, clinical nutritionist and founder of The Gut Cø Pernille Jensen, who gave us all her gut health tips. In fact, it’s actually possible to eat your way to happiness by consuming certain fibrous foods. Avocadoes and potatoes are also good for boosting your gut health.
