Dr Mary Pardee

Listen Later

There’s so much that goes into gut health, and this episode goes into all the important aspects that you need to know. Dr Mary Pardee is a naturopathic doctor and founder of modrn, which focuses primarily on gut health, and incorporates a range of treatments and techniques tailored to specific individuals.

We talk about…

  • An overview of the gut anatomy and the GI tract
  • How significant the gi microbiome is for the entire microbiome
  • Helminthic therapy (i.e. worms) for IBS or crohn’s disease
  • Signs of good/bad gut health
  • What a good bowel movement should look like
  • The role of fibre as the main fuel source for your gut microbiome, Mary’s simple tip for getting more fibre in your diet, and why it’s a double-edged sword when it comes to bloating
  • Bloating - what causes it and common ways to treat it, including things you can do at home
  • Why you should wait four hours between meals
  • Herbal teas that help with different types of gut issues
  • Fermented food - why diversity is important
  • A guide to farting - what’s normal and what’s healthy
  • How fasting impacts your gut health - when fasting is a good idea, and when it isn’t
  • Why meditation is one of the things she recommends to her patients the most
  • How to know if it’s time to do something about your gut health 
  • Her guide to testing the impact of different foods on your health - how to take them out, how long for, and how to add them back in.
  • The connection between gut health and skin health - things like eczema and dermatitis
  • Prebiotics and probiotics - the difference and the uses for each
  • Why you should chew your smoothies
  • How antibiotics impact gut health, and the issues to avoid when taking them

    • If that seems like a lot, it is! But it’s digestible (pun intended) and usable, and all really interesting.
