The JCN Clinic Podcast Show

Probiotics are often marketed as a universal solution for gut health, but what if they’re not always helping, and in some cases, making things worse? In this episode of The JCN Clinic Podcast, we unpack why popping probiotics without proper guidance may be doing more harm than good. We explore the reality that not all probiotics are created equal, with different strains exerting very different mechanisms of action. We discuss how probiotics may aggravate existing dysbiosis, why caution is needed for certain gut conditions such as SIBO (particularly products containing prebiotics), and what the research really shows, highlighting the mixed and often condition-specific outcomes seen in studies. You’ll also learn how probiotics can sometimes mask underlying gut dysfunction rather than address the root cause, and the potential risks of long-term or inappropriate use. Most importantly, we shift the focus to what to do instead: how to take a more strategic, personalised, and evidence-informed approach to gut health that supports true healing rather than symptom suppression. If you’ve ever wondered whether probiotics are right for you or why they haven’t delivered the results you expected this episode is a must-listen. ============================================== Get your copy of e.a.t cookbook using the unique discount code here - https://jessicacox.com.au/product/e-a-t-cookbook-by-jessica-cox/ ======================================================= The JCN Clinic Podcast is a place where Jessica and Carissa get real about nutrition and living a healthy life.

So many people reach a dead end with gut symptoms, even after countless GP visits, specialist appointments, and “normal” test results. In this episode of The JCN Clinic Podcast, Jessica and Roshelle dive into what to do next when you still don’t have answers. They unpack the common patterns they see in clients who’ve tried everything but still feel unwell and explain how a thorough review of your health history, diet, and lifestyle can reveal hidden triggers your GP may have overlooked. Jessica and Roshelle also discuss the role of functional testing with respect to Microba functional stool testing and how as clinical nutritionists they use this advanced technology to assess microbiome imbalances that standard testing often misses. =========== =============== Show Notes: Get your copy of Easy Meals Food Plan here - jhttps://jessicacox.com.au/product/easy-meals-food-plan/ Find out more about our Gut Health Nutrition Package with Roshelle here https://jessicacox.com.au/theclinic/gut-health-nutritionist/ =================================== The JCN Clinic Podcast is a place where Jessica and Carissa get real about nutrition and living a healthy life.

In this week’s episode, Jessica is joined by fellow Clinical Nutritionist Christine Smith from The JCN Clinic to unpack the 14 most common mistakes people make when trying to lose weight and why these missteps often make it harder to see lasting results. From calorie counting confusion and overly restrictive diets to excessive cardio and neglecting strength training, Jessica and Christine explore how these common traps can slow metabolism, trigger rebound weight gain, and leave you feeling frustrated.

You’ll hear why focusing on long-term change, balanced nutrition, sleep, and stress support is far more effective than short-term restriction.

Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutrient issues we see at The JCN Clinic, but what if the real problem isn’t your intake, but your absorption? In this episode, Jessica sits down with Rebecca, Director of Education at Activated Probiotics, to explore why maintaining healthy iron levels depends so deeply on gut health. Rebecca covers: • Why iron insufficiency is often driven by gut dysfunction rather than diet alone • The fascinating connection between iron and immune function • How the physiology of iron absorption relies on a balanced digestive environment • The emerging research on the role of the microbiome in iron metabolism • And how specific probiotic strains are being studied for their potential to support iron uptake With over twenty years of experience in complementary and integrative health, Rebecca is a qualified naturopath, educator, and passionate science communicator. She’s lectured to students and practitioners across Australia, the UK, Canada, and the US, sharing the latest research in microbiome science and its impact on human health. If you’ve ever struggled with stubbornly low iron levels, this conversation will help you understand why and how supporting your gut might be the key to restoring balance from the inside out ============================================================= Show Notes: Get your copy of e.a.t cookbook using the unique discount code here - https://jessicacox.com.au/product/e-a-t-cookbook-by-jessica-cox/ ============================================================= The JCN Clinic Podcast is a place where Jessica and Carissa get real about nutrition and living a healthy life.
