A HUGE welcome to our very first guest interviewee, the fabulous Rebecca Edwards! What an absolute treat to have Rebecca on the podcast and share her informative & powerful insights on all things probiotics, microbiome & your gut (and SO much more!)

We talk oral microbiome (and how the microbes in your mouth can influence your risk of Alzheimer's & cardiovascular disease), vulvovaginal microbiome & how it's affected by your intestinal tract, and how mental health is *in fact* impacted by the beautiful bacterial ecosystem in your gut. With so much ground clearly & concisely covered, probiotic myths busted & LOTS more, this is a must-listen for ANYONE looking to improve their health or be in-the-know on the human microbiome.

      The Nuanced Naturopaths Podcast is a friendly conversation between two friends, us! Karinda and Julie. We’re passionate about finding the nuance in natural health. As degree-qualified naturopaths, we like to ask the questions that need to be asked - about all aspects of health, healing and well-being. We delight in questioning firmly held beliefs and finding the nuance in all subjects health-related and beyond. Sometimes it can get a little technical, but hopefully we explain things in a way that's accessible to anyone interested in natural health, whether you’re a practitioner or someone who wants to learn more and optimise your wellbeing. It’s a chat about poop, periods and everything in between - buckle up for a laugh, a cry and for some things you are yet to consider about your health! Stay nuanced!
