S2 E20: New Clinical Findings Related to the Gut Microbiome
May 20, 2025
Let’s get one thing straight: all the bloating, fatigue, hot flashes, and stubborn weight issues are not just “hormone problems” or “aging” – they’re gut problems in disguise.
In this episode, I’m breaking down 8 new studies that provide a front-row seat to what researchers are looking at regarding the microbiome – from birth to menopause and beyond.
And spoiler alert: it’s way more interconnected than you think.
We’re talking:
→ How teenage gut health begins in the delivery room
→ Polyphenols in green coffee extract are the bomb for metabolism (yep, really)
→ Why periodontal disease treatments need to be re-evaluated
→ The misconception (and truth) about using fermented foods after antibiotics
→ And a surprising new discovery about pediatric blood pressure
These studies are right up our alley – focusing on the essential role of the microbiome in human health. They’re a bit nerdy, super practical, and I’ve got some ready-to-implement tips for your clinical practice.
Here’s What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ How birth history, screen time, and stress show up in the teenage microbiome
✅ How microbial shifts during menopause can trigger metabolic and mood issues
✅ Why not all fiber is created equal — and what you should actually be recommending
✅ Surprising ‘insights’ about using fermented foods post antibiotics – and the real truth
✅ How to use probiotics, polyphenols, and strategic types of fiber like a total pro
Grab your pen. This one’s loaded.
