364. Jason Hawrelak on Probiotic Science & Health: The latest probiotic research findings from the recent global conference.

Fancy a cheat sheet of 10 key probiotic and gut health needle-movers? Dr Jason Hawrelak, one of Australia’s leading researchers, teachers and clinicians in the gut health and probiotics space, is recently back from a global probiotic conference in ITALY, and on this show we cover: Probiotic recommendations, testing and choline for preconception health and babies. The question Jason asked world leading leaky gut expert, Dr Fasano: “Given the results of your two pivotal ex vivo studies, where you found gluten (gliadin) could cause temporary changes in intestinal permeability, even in healthy intestinal cells, do you agree with the recommendation, that some have made based on your research, that all humans should strictly avoid eating gluten?”. What did he say?! Irritable Bowel Syndrome and the use of Partially Hydrolysed Guar Gum? Still a good idea? Probiotics being bad for SIBO patients: Debunkable? Surely it's essential to have a deep understanding about which ones in which cases might be most helpful? Ellagitannins - get to know them and get consuming them: here's why...Blasto: Not so black and white as simply being 'bad and must be killed?'Glyphosate effect on Microbiome: What has a new study in November revealed? Dr Jason Hawrelak is one of the leading Australian practitioners and educators in gut health and probiotic science.
