Kiran Krishnan is the Chief Science Officer at Just Thrive Probiotics. He is a research microbiologist that has been in the industry for 16 years. He has promised to educate us today about spore based probiotics in a way that is easy to understand. rIn this episode of the Clean Eating for Women podcast, we talk about: Kiran gives us a probiotic overview We learn what spore based probiotics are 80% of our immune system exists in our gut Some highlights of this episode on Probiotics for Healing with Just Thrive Microbiologist Kiran Krishnan: Kiran's super power is that he is a nerd that can talk to humans. He is going to explain some complicated topics in an easy to understand and "digestible" way. I heard Kiran on another podcast and knew he would be a great guest for the show. [01:13] Probiotics were first invented by Elie Metchnikoff. He put forth the idea that illness comes from an overabundance of bad bacteria. Auto intoxication. Using good bacteria to counteract bad bacteria. [02:11] A probiotic should be a live microorganism. It's a bacteria of some sort that can get into your system and make significant and valuable changes to the rest of the population in your digestive system and immune system. [03:17] If we have the right type of bacteria in our gut, we can create a significant amount of value in the way our body and our immune system functions. A probiotic is a good bacteria that goes to work for you fixing damage that we have done to our microbiome. [04:08] Things that can damage our microbiome can be too much sugar or taking antibiotics. We are a collection of thousands of organisms that work together as a whole. Our modern environment disrupts the cycle. Preservatives, pesticides, herbicides, glyphosate, chlorine, fluoride, and 80% of our personal care products destroy our bodies bacterial cultures. [04:52] Spore based probiotics form an endospore to protect themselves. They can survive in stomach acid. Then in the gut, they recondition the environment. They find bad bacteria and kill them off and feed the good bacteria through prebiotic foods. [11:33] Leaky gut is what is driving chronic inflammation that is driving chronic disease. Endotoxins leak through the intestinal lining and get into your bloodstream. This sets off inflammation and starts the process of disease. Obesity, brain fog, anxiety, depression, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, cancer, and autoimmune diseases are all caused by toxins leaking from the gut. [19:42] Spore based probiotics are able to stop leaky gut in 30 days. It can help heal and reverse the entire condition. Metabolic endotoxemia is the process of digestion increasing intestinal leakiness. [25:59] The vast majority of the body can heal if we put it in a healing state. We can't be in a healing state with a continuous flood of toxins and inflammation just from eating food.

Tina Chow the blogger behind Fit Chicks Cook is famous for healthy meal prepping. I am so excited to have her here today to talk about her new cookbook the Everything Healthy Meal Prep Cookbook. We're going to talk about her book and meal prepping and everything fun about staying healthy. In this episode of the Clean Eating for Women podcast, we talk about: Tina's health journey and how she got into real foods How eating better changed Tina's life Tina's meal prepping routine Some highlights of this episode on how to make veggies taste delicious: Tina Chow is famous for meal prepping. It's no surprise she got the cookbook deal. She is pushing 200,000 followers on Instagram. Her account exploded because she was featured on a lot of bigger account. She has a full-time job and the meal prepping is something she does on the side, but she is passionate about it. [01:55] She got into meal prepping because she led a busy life and cooking from scratch was so time-consuming. She also wanted to be healthier. She joined a gym and decided to get into shape. How fitness is 80% diet and 20% exercise. [03:16] Tina began researching and came across some meal prepping pioneers on Instagram. She used Instagram to keep her accountable, but things exploded practically overnight. Eating better and meal prepping made her feel so much better. [05:36] Meal prepping is now a normal thing that she does on every Sunday. She gets her groceries on a Saturday or Sunday morning and then spends a few hours on Sunday batch cooking everything for the week. [07:05] Her first meal was a stir fry with sweet potatoes, asparagus, and chicken. She just started with her lunch for the week. She started small and then added more meals from there. She now preps for every meal. [08:40] Her mason jar salads get a lot of attention. If she is known for anything it would probably be that. Taco salad in a jar is one of her specialties. The recipe is in the cookbook. [11:06] The best advice Tina can give for people just starting out is to start prepping with just one meal. Start small and then add on from there. Be open minded to new recipes, but not all at once. [15:11] Snacks are things that are easy like boiled eggs with carrots and tomatoes or nuts and fruit. Cottage cheese with a green apple is another choice. [22:15] A publisher approached Tina over email. Simon & Schuster were actually in the market for a meal prep cookbook author. She had a large following and the publisher knew that eating healthy and meal prepping was a trend that they wanted to follow. She took time off to focus on writing the book.

Kate Van Horn the Co-Creator of the GoodFest wellness festival is here to talk about the festival, her recovery story, body love, and all good things. In this episode of the Clean Eating for Women podcast, we talk about: What GoodFest is all about Letting go of labels and still living authentically Tools like yoga helped Kate heal from her eating disorder Some highlights of this episode on body love & all the good things: GoodFest started in Philadelphia and the first festival ended up with 350 women from all over. Then they decided to try a festival in L.A. Then they are going back to Philadelphia, but they are also planning to go to Austin and Seattle. [01:35] The spirit of loving yourself and finding like minded women at GoodFest. They want it to be an inclusive community. Wellness should be fun and exploratory, not rigid. People should go to GoodFest with an open mind, and take what works and leave the rest. [03:10] Kate's personal journey of figuring out where she belonged and letting go of labels. She thinks it is important to feel you identify with others. She started out as plant based vegan, but struggled with it. Being able to make choices and be in alignment with our food choices. Letting go of labels can be a feeling of relief. [06:28] Not being rigid left more room for being creative. This actually snowballed into the Good Festival. Flowing led to more opportunities and made things more fluid. Just allowing things to be along with having trust leaves room for flow. [10:00] Kate loves yoga and thinks it was the final piece of the puzzle that helped her eating disorder. Mindfulness and moving intuitively really helped her healing process. Her yoga practice started as a home practice where she was at peace with her body. [12:04] Having an accountability buddy or working with a specialist when working on recovering from an eating disorder. Everyone benefits from talking through things, but it is also empowering to have tools like yoga. There is a lot within us that we can do when we are ready. [16:25] Finding balance in finding speakers for GoodFest. They chose a panel for the L.A. GoodFest because people have had different food experiences. They want to represent different voices. They also chose the food freedom route. They framed it as a relationship with food and discovering what food is best for each person. [18:56] One of the purposes of GoodFest is for women to have a place where they aren't judged. Kate wants it to become the norm when people in the wellness community get together. [24:06] The next GoodFest on 8/11/18 will feature Kelsey Patel and Ruby Warrington, a panel, yoga, and Alexis Joseph. It will end with a meditation. They are going to have large groups instead of tracks. It's going to be a main stage format.
