Podcasts about your gut

When you decide to grab a bite to eat, do you think about how to feed your gut microbes? Most of us don't. Even if we did, their only means of stating their preferences is somewhat after the fact. Do you end up feeling less than well? Perhaps the denizens of your gut aren't happy. In this episode, we consider how to support your microbiota and whether that can reduce the inflammation that seems to accompany modern life. At The People's Pharmacy, we strive to bring you up‑to‑date, rigorously researched insights and conversations about health, medicine, wellness and health policies and health systems.

Feed Your Gut Right to Fight Inflammation Dr. Will Bulsiewicz is a gastroenterologist who urges all of us to focus on a healthful fiber-rich plant-strong diet to maintain our microbiome in good shape. He has described his own evolution from a busy medical student relying heavily on processed food products to a whole-food plant-based enthusiast. Eating a wide variety of plants is one of the easiest ways to make sure we are getting the nutrients our gut microbes need. Why are the trillions of microbes in our large intestine so important? Dr. Bulsiewicz (aka Dr. B.) shares the story of a patient who was overwhelmed by a serious C. diff infection. A course of clindamycin for a skin infection had decimated her normal microbiome and left an open field for C. diff to flourish. Instead of treating her with surgery and even more potent antibiotics, Dr. B. and his colleagues utilized a fecal transplant. She got poop from a healthy person into her colon and left the hospital a few days later in good health herself. What Is the Link Between the Microbiome and the Immune System? Inflammation is one of the primary signs that the immune system has gone into action to fight off a perceived foe. There is a close relationship between the gut microbes, the gut barrier and the cells of the immune system. Between 70 and 80 percent of immune system cells are present in the gut (Nutrients, March 9, 2021).  There is just one layer of cells in the gut barrier, firmly attached to each other through tight junctions. If those tight junctions break down, pathogens and toxins can get from the gut into the bloodstream and activate the immune system into creating inflammation Medicines That Harm the Intestinal Barrier Diets that are high in salt have a negative impact on the integrity of the intestinal barrier (Nutrients, Nov. 25, 2025). In fact, a diet high in salt can reduce the number of Lactobacilli in the gut by 90%. This also affects the permeability of the gut barrier, which can contribute to auto-immune conditions. When we asked about inflammatory bowel disorders such as Crohn disease or ulcerative colitis, Dr. B. told us he thinks it's a mistake to classify them as auto-immune conditions. Instead, he suggests we should consider these conditions as due to the immune system rejecting the microbiome. Some of them might be initiated and perpetuated by failures in the gut barrier that allow certain organisms or their toxins into systemic circulation. A number of medications can also harm it, most notably the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Agents like ibuprofen, naproxen, celecoxib and meloxicam may disrupt the tight junctions that keep the intestinal barrier intact (Gastroenterology, Feb. 2018).  In some cases, they may also upset the balance of microbes. Four Keys to an Anti-Inflammatory Diet There are several different dietary patterns that allow you to feed your gut and fight inflammation. Good evidence supports a DASH diet, a Mediterranean diet, pescatarian, flexitarian, vegetarian and some vegan diets. We asked Dr. B. to summarize the four features healthful eating patterns share. They include adequate fiber, plenty of polyphenols, healthy fat and fermented foods (think of sauerkraut or kimchi). Fiber and Flatulence One drawback of a high-fiber diet is that when microbes in the colon ferment the fiber we can't digest, they produce gases. It has to go somewhere, or it will cause sensations of cramping and bloating. Consequently, fiber is often associated with flatulence. Dr. B. suggests that there may be more gas, and it may be loud, but it shouldn't be stinky. Smelly farts are born of sulfur, which is more common in a diet containing garlic, onions, crucifers like broccoli or cabbage, fish, eggs or meat. Plant-Powered Plus We wondered what might be included in the “plus” category when you feed your gut and fight inflammation. Dr. B. offers a few things that you might not expect in a book about diet, but they are related to reducing inflammation. One is to go outside early in the day, every day, to get your circadian rhythm in sync. Another is to maintain your emotional connections with family and friends. Still another, just as important, is to nurture your spiritual core. This Week’s Guest Dr. Will Bulsiewicz describes how a plant-powered diet can fight inflammation Will Bulsiewicz, MD, is a New York Times bestselling author, award-winning gastroenterologist and internationally recognized health expert. Dr. Bulsiewicz directs the Gut & Microbiome Center for Excellence, a physician-led executive medicine and telemedicine practice based in Mount Pleasant, SC. Dr. Bulsiewicz is the author of several books, including his latest book, Plant Powered Plus: Activate the Power of Your Gut to Tame Inflammation and Reclaim Your Health.

Are you buying the same vegetables he does? We also get insights on his favorite recipes for grains like farro. And we discuss the effect of coffee on the gut microbes. If you want to feed your gut to encourage certain microbes, remember that consistency is crucial. You can't eat a specific food once and expect it to make a difference. But consuming it several times a week will ultimately add up. We also discuss antidotes for flatulence, if you are interested in that.

“What if your bloating, fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, stubborn weight gain, and hormone symptoms are actually starting in your gut?” In this episode, Dr. Mariza sits down with Dr. Cassie Smith — dual board-certified endocrinologist, founder of Modern Endocrine, and author of Fix Your Gut, Fix Your Hormones — to unpack the powerful connection between gut health, hormone balance, stress, metabolism, inflammation, and reproductive health. Together, they dive into how chronic stress, poor gut health, blood sugar dysregulation, inflammation, and lifestyle overload silently impact everything from cortisol and insulin to estrogen, progesterone, thyroid function, and fertility. Dr. Cassie explains why so many women are told their labs are “normal” while still feeling exhausted, bloated, anxious, inflamed, and disconnected from their bodies — and why gut dysfunction is often the missing piece conventional medicine overlooks. They also explore the growing metabolic and hormonal crisis happening in younger women, the connection between PCOS, insulin resistance, gut dysfunction, and birth control, and why many women are struggling to restore healthy cycles and fertility later in life. This conversation is a powerful reminder that hormones do not work in isolation. Your gut, nervous system, metabolism, sleep, stress resilience, and hormones are all deeply interconnected. If you've been feeling like your body is trying to tell you something but nobody has connected the dots yet, this episode will help you understand where healing truly begins. DR. CASSIE SMITH Dr. Cassie Smith is a dual board-certified endocrinologist and the founder of Modern Endocrine. After becoming frustrated with the limitations of conventional medicine, she built a practice focused on uncovering the root causes behind hormone dysfunction, metabolic issues, fertility struggles, and gut-related symptoms. She is also the author of the book Fix Your Gut, Fix Your Hormones. IN THIS EPISODE Why chronic stress has such a powerful impact on gut health and hormones How gut dysfunction contributes to fatigue, brain fog, bloating, anxiety, and weight resistance The connection between estrogen decline, microbiome diversity, and inflammation Why insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction are rising in younger women The hidden relationship between PCOS, gut health, cortisol, and fertility Why birth control is often used as a Band-Aid instead of addressing root causes The foundational lifestyle habits that support gut and hormone healing Why slowing down, resting, and reducing nervous system overload matters for recovery QUOTES “Your hormones are doing the best they can in the environment you give them.” “It doesn't matter how many supplements or hormones we throw at you if the foundations aren't in place.” “Your gut is where all healing begins.” “Your body cannot heal in survival mode.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Get your “Fix Your Gut, Fix Your Hormones” Book by Dr. Cassie Smith https://guthormonefix.com/ ⁠Order my newest book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Modern Endocrine Website Modern Endocrine Instagram Modern Endocrine Facebook Modern Endocrine Tiktok Modern Endocrine Youtube Hormones, Metabolism and You PodcastThe Menopause Gut Book by Cynthia Thurlow RELATED EPISODES  741: Estrogen, Gut Health, Mitochondria, and Cardiovascular Health: What Changes In Perimenopause with Dr. Siobhan Mitchel 743: Why Your Heart Risk Changes in Menopause (And What You Can Do About It) with Dr. Jayne Morgan 738: The Hidden Link Between Inflammation, Hormones & Fertility with Dr. Natalie Crawford  740: Why You're Bloated, Gaining Weight & Feeling Off in Menopause (It Starts in Your Gut) with Cynthia Thurlow

Send us Fan Mail About 90% of your serotonin, the chemical most people associate with happiness, is not made in your brain. It is made in your gut. In this conversation, Dr. Shawn Talbott, PsychoNutritionist and founder of 3 Waves Wellness, sits down with host Yusuf to explain why the place that processes your lunch is also, in a very real way, processing your emotions. You will hear how the gut-brain axis works in plain language, the everyday signs that your two brains have stopped talking to each other (tired in the day, wired at night), what modern food and chronic stress are quietly doing to your microbiome, and where supplements honestly fit alongside a whole-food approach. Grounded, practical, and the kind of episode that changes how you look at your next meal. About the Guest: Dr. Shawn Talbott is a nutritional biochemist with a PhD from Rutgers and an executive master's in entrepreneurship from MIT, and a self-described PsychoNutritionist who integrates nutrition, biochemistry, and psychology. He has authored multiple academic textbooks and best-selling books including Mental Fitness, developed nutraceuticals that have generated over a billion dollars in global sales, and is a multi-time Ironman triathlete and ultramarathoner. He runs the 3 Waves Wellness Center in Plymouth, Massachusetts, where he trains Certified Mental Wellness Coaches in the microbiome-gut-brain axis. Key Takeaways: Your gut is your second brain. Around 90% of serotonin, 70% of dopamine, 80% of melatonin, and a large share of GABA and oxytocin are produced in the gut, not the head. Neurotransmitters are simply signals. When the signals are balanced, you feel good. When they are out of balance, you feel low, unmotivated, or anxious, and that is biochemistry, not personal failure. Modern food and chronic stress imbalance the system. Highly processed, low-fibre diets starve helpful bacteria, and chronic stress quietly grows the harmful ones, creating a feedback loop that drags mood down. Tired in the day and wired at night is a hallmark sign. If you cannot find energy in the morning but cannot wind down at night, your gut-brain conversation likely needs attention. Modern problems often need old-fashioned solutions. Eating more like your grandmother did, more whole foods, fibre, fermented foods, and colourful flavonoid-rich produce, solves much of what supplements alone cannot. Supplements have a place, but only if they are evidence-based. Look for companies that name their strains, share the research, and treat supplements as a way to help you feel well enough to make better lifestyle choices, not a shortcut around them.

I want to tell you about a woman who was doing everything right.  Eating clean, working out consistently, tracking everything, taking all the supplements. She'd been doing this for two years. And in those two years her weight had gone up, her energy had gotten worse, and she'd started waking up every morning with this low-grade dread about her body that she just couldn't shake.  She went to her doctor. Labs came back normal.  She went to a functional medicine doctor. Got a supplement list. Came back six months later feeling exactly the same. And at some point she started to quietly believe that maybe she was just the problem. She wasn't. And if any part of that sounds familiar, stay with us because that's exactly what today's episode is about. We are going to break down exactly why smart, disciplined women are doing everything right and getting worse results, why the medical system keeps missing it, and what's actually going on in the gut, hormones, and metabolism that standard testing never finds.   Time Stamps:   (1:22) A Story About A Women Doing “Everything” Right (7:12) Does This Sound Like You?

Featuring: Tenzin Choden, MD, University of Chicago MedicineThe GI Research Foundation produced this podcast with a sponsorship from Metro Infusion Center.As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass — a condition known as sarcopenia. But for people living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), muscle loss can be more severe and may even impact treatment outcomes.In this episode, we sit down with Tenzin Choden, MD, board-certified gastroenterologist and clinical researcher at UChicago Medicine, to explore the connection between sarcopenia and IBD. We discuss why muscle health matters in digestive disease and whether a promising, noninvasive technology — intestinal ultrasound, funded by the GI Research Foundation — could help clinicians better measure and monitor sarcopenia in patients.Could this approach transform how we care for people living with IBD?

Featuring: Emma Levine, MD, University of Chicago MedicineThe GI Research Foundation was able to produce this podcast with a sponsorship from Metro Infusion Center.In this episode, Dr. Levine, a current fellow with The University of Chicago Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition Fellowship training program, shares her 2025 GI Research Foundation Young Investigator Awards study on the reciprocal relationship between sleep and inflammation in IBD. We talk about why poor sleep is so common in people with IBD and how it can worsen disease activity—even when symptoms seem under control.

Human reason: what is it? How does it cooperate with faith and the will? How can we distinguish between authentic reason and its counterfeits—particularly in an age of relativism, pluralism, scientism, and artificial intelligence? Here to unpack a heavy topic is Fr. Gregory Pine, a Dominican friar, instructor at Dominican House of Studies in Washington, DC. You may recognize his voice as a frequent contributor to podcasts like Godsplaining and Pints with Aquinas. Following a talk with our juniors, Fr. Pine graciously joined us in the studio to offer a wealth of ideas on this natural capacity and inclination to understand God's world.

Mental health isn't one-size-fits-all. Most of us have learned that depression is a chemical imbalance that works like a disease - you either have it or you don't, and if you do you can seek treatment through psychiatric medication. While this model of depression has helped destigmatize mental illness, it also has its limits. Today, I'm speaking to Ellen Vora, MD, about new approaches to treating depression and mental health tips.  If you want to cut past the noise and finally get to the root cause of your depression, this episode is for you. Ellen and I discuss SSRIs, birth control, inflammation, and more – and as always, we're giving you tips you can implement now to help with your depression. 3:03 Is It Normal To Feel Sad All the Time? 9:05 Genetic Components in Depression 20:31 How SSRIs Work 25:39 False Moods 27:12 SSRI Withdrawal 36:47 Dealing with Grief 39:41 Spirituality & Mental Health 44:27 Postpartum Depression  51:02 Physical Root Causes of Depression 56:58 Finding Your Root Cause 1:00:33 Should You Test for Thyroid Problems? 1:06:34 Hormonal Birth Control, AKA The Pill 1:08:33 Finding Community 1:13:41 PMDD 1:23:38 Your Gut and Your Brain For more from Ellen Vora, find her on Instagram @ellenvoramd, online at https://ellenvora.com/, and get Ellen's book The Anatomy of Anxiety here.
