Description

Gut health is at the heart of overall well-being, playing a crucial role in supporting our immune system, mental health, and resilience to stress. The gut is often called the “second brain” because of its powerful impact on mental health as well as immunity.
 
But there's so much more to the gut than taking a probiotic supplement! In this episode I walk you through the key elements of the digestive system that have an impact on your gut microbiome, starting with the brain.
 
I discuss...
  • The cephalic phase of digestion and how to help it work properly
  • The one thing no-one is doing enough of
  • The foods that help you digest your food
  • The one bacteria that has the biggest impact on your gut function (and how to feed it)
  • All about pooh!

This is an episode about an old school topic that no one is talking about anymore in the protein-mania world we're in! So I'm bringing things back to what's truly important for good health and mental wellbeing.
