The common breakfast drink that could be harming your gut - not coffee

Brits are being urged by health experts to reconsider their breakfast drink choices to preserve their gut health. While many people enjoy a tea or a juice to wash their morning meal down, one of these options could be causing your gut harm.

Steven Hegarty,  founder of the plant-based gut health brand Biomel, says that orange juice in particular can spell trouble for your stomach. He said: “Despite being seen as a healthy start to the day, orange juice is packed with sugar, often more than some fizzy drinks. This sugar overload can wreak havoc on your gut, leaving it irritated and sluggish.”

“Orange juice, while a source of natural sugars, can contribute to blood sugar spikes and gut imbalances when consumed in large amounts.

“It may give you an energy boost initially, but it often leads to a crash later, which affects your overall mood and wellbeing.”

The high sugar content in orange juice not only imbalances your gut, but it can also disrupt the delicate microbiome.

This collection of bacteria in your gut helps digest food and absorb nutrients, and if it’s knocked off balance, it can lead to bloating, discomfort, and even affect your immune system.

Instead, Steven suggests Brits switch the sugary juice for  something easier on the gut, like a simple cup of warm water with lemon, which helps hydrate the body and kickstart digestion.

Steven also suggests making a few changes to your food choices in the morning to support gut health. “Opt for whole foods like porridge, eggs, or plant-based proteins such as lentils or beans.

“These options are not only good for the gut but also help you feel fuller for longer, reducing the temptation for sugary snacks before lunch.”
