This week I wanted to tackle the topic of gut health.
We are almost at the end of Season 2 and I have yet to do an episode about gut health, so I decided the best way to start was with a high level overview of gut health.
This one is for everyone, whether you’ve been working on your gut health for years, or if the concept is completely new to you and you’re just wanting to get started.
Regardless of who you are, your gut health is absolutely essential for your well being and your ability to perform and your absolute best.
In this episode I share:
- What gut health actually is
- What influences our gut health
- The gut-brain connection and how powerful it is
- Ways you can measure your microbiome
- 5 non dietary strategies you can try to maximise your gut health
- The 6 dietary strategies to maximise our gut health
- How the 6 categories of plants help our gut health
- The importance of your fibre intake
- Why resistance starch is gold star fuel for our colonic bacteria
- How probiotics and fermented foods help
- Plant compounds that are really good for your gut
- Why our gut needs hydration
Key Quotes
“We don’t want our food and waste sitting in our body for longer than it should”
“What we consume plays a huge impact on our gut health.”
