🎯 The 30-Day Microbiome Experiment: Eating Only What My Gut Bacteria Wanted

30-day microbiome experiment

The Crazy Idea

Have you ever wondered who’s really in charge of your food cravings? What if I told you it’s not your willpower, but trillions of tiny bacteria in your gut calling the shots?

I read a Harvard study showing our gut bacteria send direct messages to our brain requesting specific foods. Not us. THEM.

So I devised a radical experiment: 30 days eating ONLY what my gut bacteria craved. No diets, no rules, no calorie counting. Just pure bacterial instinct.

But there was a problem: my microbiome was imbalanced. The “bad” bacteria were in charge, constantly screaming for sugar and junk food.

The solution? I took LeanBiome for 2 weeks first to reset my gut and put the good bacteria in power.

🧪 The 2-Week LeanBiome Preparation

30-day microbiome experiment

Before starting the actual experiment, I needed to reset my gut. Here’s what 14 days of LeanBiome did:

1. Repopulated my gut with the 9 specific probiotic strains
2. Reduced inflammation with Greenselect Phytosome®
3. Balanced hunger hormones (ghrelin/leptin)

Results AFTER 14 Days (before experiment even started):

• Sugar cravings reduced by 60%
• Abdominal bloating disappeared
• Morning energy noticeably improved
• Lost 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg) without changing diet

This alone was mind-blowing. LeanBiome worked WITHOUT any dietary changes.

📅 The 30-Day Experiment Diary

DAY 1-7: The Weird Phase

What my gut asked for: Strange combinations! Cauliflower for breakfast, avocado with lemon in the afternoon, fish for dinner.

The science: My newly balanced microbiome wanted REAL nutrients, not empty calories.

Result: Lost 4.6 lbs (2.1 kg) in ONE WEEK. My body was clearly deficient and finally getting what it needed.

DAY 8-14: Cravings Disappear

The phenomenon: Walked past a bakery… NOTHING. No desire for sweets whatsoever.

The science: The good bacteria (especially Lactobacillus rhamnosus) stopped asking for sugar. They were satisfied with fiber and nutrients.

Result: Energy stable all day, no 3 PM crash.

DAY 15-21: Explosive Energy

Radical change: Waking up at 6 AM naturally, no coffee needed. Consistent energy throughout the day.

Explanation: Healthy microbiome → Optimized B vitamin production → More natural energy.

Observation: My taste buds were changing. Sweets started tasting TOO sweet.

DAY 22-30: The New Normal

Complete transformation: My relationship with food fundamentally changed. I wasn’t “fighting cravings” anymore—I simply didn’t have them.

Final realization: This wasn’t a diet. This was my body functioning as it was designed to.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

30-day microbiome experiment

Q: Can I do this experiment without LeanBiome?
A: Possibly, but much harder. Your microbiome needs to be balanced first, otherwise you’ll just be listening to bad bacteria asking for junk food.

Q: How long until I see results?
A: With LeanBiome: 2-3 weeks for reduced cravings, 1-2 months for significant weight loss. Without: can take 6+ months to rebalance naturally.

Q: Do I need to completely change my diet?
A: Not drastically. LeanBiome will naturally make you prefer healthier foods. It’s the good “side effect.”
