There has been a lot of speculation surrounding the bacteria in our gut and how to maintain it healthy or balanced. Gut health is traditionally measured by motility (transit time, stool frequency, stool consistency), histology (structure of cells), permeability of the gut, endoscopy, and other measures of compounds in the stool or tissues. More recently, gut health has also been assessed by the diversity of the bacteria in the gut and what kinds of bacteria can be found.

With that in mind, it is important to point out that the bacteria in our gut depends on the food we eat for energy. Foods high in dietary fiber have a positive effect on the human gut microbiota, or simply any moderated intake of food and drinks with pre and probiotics. Waku for example contains 6 grams of prebiotic fiber, which basically represents 25% of the daily fiber intake we should be consuming.

Here at Waku we are huge fans of delicious sweet desserts and savory snacks. But even though cakes and donuts are delicious, and so are most of the fast desserts we are used to buying, they are not always the healthiest options, nor the most nutritious and delicious ones. That is why, today we have gathered our top 5 all time favorite dessert recipes that you can make from the comfort of your own home by using very easy to obtain ingredients and with the great plus that they are all vegan!

So grab your pen and paper and start writing the names of these amazing recipes down so that you can make them for yourself, your kids, your family and friends and not only be their favorite person, but make them feel a thousand times better with a healthy but still very yummy dessert.
