So Should I Eat Apples, or Not?

A few months ago, I stopped eating bananas and apples. I had enjoyed them for years, but DayTwo, one of the new generation of high-tech microbiome tests that I reviewed earlier in NEO.LIFE, said those particular fruits weren’t good for me. Since then, my sleep has improved. Coincidence?

Recently I tried another new microbiome test, from a company called Viome. It agrees that I shouldn’t eat bananas. But Viome says I should have an apple or two every day. Who’s right?

Microbiome diet tests are based on the fact that much of what you eat isn’t fully digested directly by your body. Some of the food is instead broken down and converted to useful molecules by the microbes in your gut, microbes that are different from person to person. It’s part of the reason why doughnuts will make most people gain more weight than walnuts—even if both servings have the same number of calories. It’s also why changing my diet might have helped me sleep better: bacteria in our guts make the precursors to most of the body’s supply of melatonin. And if your microbes are depleted through antibiotics, a food you enjoyed in the past might suddenly cause you an upset stomach.
