What does “70% of the immune system is in your gut” really mean?? 🧐
The abundance of sources online can sometimes get so convoluted that instead of encouraging the layperson to actively know more about their gut… You kind of just give up. 🤷‍♀️
But not today! 🙌
In this week’s podcast, we have research microbiologist Kiran Krishnan (@kiranbiome) who will break down the super complicated nature of the microbiome’s relationship with our immune system using easy-to-follow, beginner-friendly analogies.
In Kiran's words, the microbiome acts as the eyes and ears of the immune system.

Namaste ~ I’m delighted you keep bringing Kiran back on, what a treat for us! He has such a warmth about him and explains seemingly complex things in easy-to-comprehend ways. The message about how people with already compromised health has a slower immune response is very helpful to understand. Bless your hearts.

Hi Lala! Thank you so much for your kind words, we also love speaking with Kiran and learning from him! ❤️

[@Sander611]

So much information, and so important. This should be taught in every school and college. This should be what is coming from CDC and NIH instead of pushing a dangerous bioweapon on the population. I will need to listen to this again.. thank you Matt and Sarah.. thank you Kiran..

What a brilliant interview about the gut microbiome. Kiran was incredible at explaining this subject so clearly. The discussion thought provoking. Although there were lots of matters to be concerned about such as how we are killing our soil and how antibiotics are adversely affecting our gut microbiome, Kiran gave me hope that we can improve things by making conscious decisions about how we live and what we eat. Thank you all so much. I will certainly be sharing this video with my family and friends.

Preliminary research indicates that optimising vitamin D status and including fermented foods in one's diet both improve gut diversity and composition. Active vitamin D status is affected by the gut microbiome so the relationship is bi-directional.

Is there any protocol to heal the gut so that a peanut allergy dissipates? Kiran is phenomenal

[@GoodnessLover]

Thank you! Research on this topic is in early stages, but there does seem to be hope for overcoming a peanut allergy by modulating the gut microbiome. Supplementing Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG has been shown to improve the effectiveness of Palforzia, an oral immunotherapy created to treat peanut allergies. Additionally, FMT is being looked into for its potential to treat peanut allergies. You can take a closer look at ongoing research here: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7761723/.

Hi! I was wondering if cats are helpful with microbiome as much as dogs?!

Having animals, leaving windows open, and getting a little dirty in nature are all great for diversifying your microbiome! 😊

[@awakenedheartroom]

I have a question, I have a CIBO breathe test that I need to take. I have had conflicting info on preparing for the test. I saw a video where the man was saying not to take probiotics for 2 weeks before. My test is only asking that I fast for 24 hours before the test. It doesn't really say to fast anything before that 24 hours. The test is very expensive and I don't want to waste my money. Is there anything I should be fasting before the 24 hours that can interfere with the test?

[@GoodnessLover]

Here are some suggestions for preparing for the test from SIBO expert Dr. Nirala Jacobi: sibotest.com/pages/about-the-sibo-breath-test.
