Description

Fatigue, headaches, skin problems including acne, joint pain, brain fog, and cravings can all be connected to gut health. In this episode, JJ explains why digestive health issues like leaky gut could be the culprit that holds your weight and health hostage. You’ll learn why our modern diet has wreaked havoc on gut health, the best way to get more fiber, why cold foods can be harder for your gut to break down, and the healing power of fermented foods, bone broth, and healthy fats. Plus, you’ll learn the connection between hydration and gut health (including JJ’s favorite tea for gut healing), why antacids can do more harm than good for acid reflux, why intermittent fasting supports a healthy gut, the #1 way to break a morning fast, and why eating breakfast can help you lose weight. “All disease begins in the gut,” Hippocrates said over 2,000 years ago. You’ll learn why – and how to help heal your gut – in this information-packed episode.
