As the saying goes, trust your gut — and this isn’t only figuratively. One of the most overlooked aspects of health is our digestive system. We tend to ignore and underestimate the symptoms we experience around our gut. But with its link to our brains, our guts play a much more significant role in our overall health. The simple act of eating healthy foods can completely turn your life around.
Kirsty Wirth joins us in this episode to share how reexamining gut health impacted her and her son's life. She talks about the road to recovery, specifically her family undergoing fecal microbial transplant (FMT). Kirsty highlights the importance of in-depth gut health testing, cutting out junk foods, and consuming healthy foods. She further discusses the two types of fermented food and how we can incorporate it into our diet.
If you’re having trouble with your digestive system and want to know which healthy foods to choose, this episode is for you.

‘I have seen how important your gut is and how it can completely change the pathway of your life. It can completely change who you are as a person.’
‘You don't just suddenly wake up one day and you've got cognition issues; that's coming from somewhere.’
‘So the first thing is just test, don't guess... We [can] really find out what is happening in our gut, and we can find out what it is doing to the rest of our body.’
‘If you want to make change, you've got to front up to make the change.’
‘If they don't include fermented foods and they don't include nourishing foods for their gut, they're relying on willpower. No one can get anywhere with willpower.’
‘It's what everyone finds hard and doesn't know, is that you should never rely on willpower. Diets will never work.’
‘DNA is not what we should be focusing on. It's actually the microbes and those fungi and viruses that make up our whole body that actually interacts through that.’
