Thirty plants a week, and which ones your gut likes
Updated 29 October 2026
Thirty plants a week is a 28-day Ojafi plan: eat thirty different plants across each week, counting vegetables, fruit, whole grains, beans, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices. Nothing is taken away. At the end you know which of the plants you added sit well with you and which do not, so you keep the variety without the bloating.
What it asks
Thirty different plants across the week. Herbs, spices, nuts and seeds count, so it is easier than it sounds: a handful of mixed seeds, a tin of mixed beans, and the herbs in tonight’s dinner are several already.

| What you give up | Nothing |
Why the variety
Most of us eat too little fibre, and the NHS suggests getting it from a range of foods. Adding a lot of new plants at once can also cause gas for a while, which is why this plan watches how each one sits instead of assuming they all agree with you.
How Ojafi plans work
- Every plan has a length and says up front what you will know at the end.
- You log meals and how they sat, about a minute a day.
- At the end Ojafi tells you which of the plan’s claims held for you, and which did not.
- No plan takes a food away. Ojafi suggests what to add or when to eat, never what to cut.
Plans run in the Ojafi iPhone app, which is in review now. The food journal they build on works in your browser today.
Questions people also ask
- What counts as a plant?
- Vegetables, fruit, whole grains, beans and lentils, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices. Each different one counts once a week.
- Will eating more plants make me bloated?
- It can at first, especially beans and some vegetables. Adding them gradually helps, and the plan shows you which ones are worth keeping.
