What do bacteria eat?

This workshop of the Institute of Agrochemistry and Food Technology (IATA-CSIC) aims to inform about the importance of healthy eating to have a suitable gut microbiota, from birth to adulthood. This activity will introduce substrates from food sources that metabolize different groups of bacteria, including the importance of breast milk. Then a game will be made in which an image of a food (or a food) will be displayed and you must guess whether the “good” bacteria prefer it or dissyed. Participants will be divided into two groups and will try to get the questions raised right. They will be writing down in a sheet divided into two columns the right/harmful foods to promote a healthy microbiota.
