This episode is all about the gut microbiome and how fermented foods can play a key role in supporting it. I break down how foods like yoghurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi help nourish beneficial bacteria, improve gut balance, and ultimately strengthen immune function. We’ll look at what the research says, how often you should include these foods, and practical ways to add them to your diet for better gut and overall health.

A must-listen if you’re curious about how your food choices directly influence your immunity and wellbeing from the inside out.
