Gut health is one of the most exciting and fast-evolving areas of nutrition science, and in this masterclass, I unpack the latest research to help you optimise your digestive system for overall health. From the role of dietary fibre to the intricate workings of your microbiome, we cover the fundamentals, practical applications, and actionable steps you can start today.
Whether you’re curious about the best foods to feed your gut bugs, want to understand how fermentation impacts digestion, or are looking for strategies to improve bowel regularity and reduce inflammation, this episode will give you both the science and the tools to take control of your gut health.
What I cover in this episode:
- How your gut microbiome influences everything from immunity to mood
- The different types of dietary fibre and why diversity matters
- What happens during fermentation and why it benefits your gut
- How short-chain fatty acids are produced and their role in health
- Strategies to increase fibre intake without discomfort
- The link between gut health and chronic disease risk
- Practical, evidence-based tips for nurturing a healthy microbiome
Optimising gut health isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about building daily habits that feed and protect the trillions of microbes living in your digestive tract. This masterclass will show you how.
