The Gut Stuff, a B Corp Certified company, was founded by twins Alana and Lisa Macfarlane with the aim of educating consumers about what action can be taken to promote positive gut health.
Steven Snowdon, lead development chef for Lexington Catering, said: “The Gut Loving Kitchen is a fantastic concept which will help our customers look after their guts. We have combined our culinary expertise with The Gut Stuff’s knowledge to create nutritious choices that will help to promote positive gut health; the food prepared in the Gut Loving Kitchen reflects what The Gut Stuff stands for and helps customers make choices that are both healthy and delicious.”
Lexington Catering has trialled the Gut Loving Kitchen concept at one client site- Linklaters. The new concept aims to promote the importance of consuming food that is high in fibre, has a variety of plant-based ingredients and includes ferments as these are all beneficial for good gut health.
Co-founders Alana and Lisa added: “Gut Health is linked to mental health, dementia, immunity and many other diseases and it is critical that we educate people to understand the food choices that are good for their guts. We are excited by Lexington’s passion to educate its customers on this important issue and that they share our commitment to encourage customers to change their eating habits to support positive gut health.”
Following the successful pilot, Lexington Catering is now planning to roll out this concept to other sites where it provides catering.
