If you can eat whatever you want, be glad. Once gut microbiome is damaged, it’s pretty much irreparable without fecal transplants (and even that sounds like it only helps the intestines, not the stomach).

That said, kefir helps a lot, but only short-term.

I’m not sure that’s true. How would it get there originally, other than through what you eat?

  If you seriously don’t understand how bacteria get in your innards, you should probably spend a couple hours reading about how your own body works, what with it being your sole manifestation in this finite life.
  
  Firstly, indeed you’re likely to ingest some bacteria with crappy food from a shitty food place. Now guess which regions and social stratums are likely to buy prepared food more than others, instead of cooking at home, while you’re registered on feddit.uk.
  
  Secondly, people occupying the same space have been shown to exchange gut bacteria pretty quickly. Unless you’re exclusively working from your own home, get ready to catch some helicobacter pylori now and then.

    You’re confusing biome with parasites.

    Nonsense. The microbiome can be repaired, it just needs the right foods, right sleep, right amount of time.
