In this episode, we’re chatting all about coffee.

I’m going to cover some of the benefits, and potential adverse effects of coffee, and give you some suggestions on how you can make coffee work for you, not against you.

I believe that in most cases, we can avoid having to give it up or take a break, so if you’re also a coffee lover, I’ll try my best to allow you to keep having coffee, but without any negative side effects.

When we think of gut health, for most people, it’s only digestive symptoms that come to mind.

Here’s the thing though: you don’t have to have gut symptoms to have a gut problem.

So yes, there are digestive symptoms that can be linked to leaky gut, like bloating, constipation or diarrhoea.

But because of leaky gut, seemingly random symptoms like fatigue and period pain, can be caused by what’s going on in our GI tract.

In this episode, I cover:

• the signs you may have leaky gut
• what leaky gut is, and how it actually causes symptoms
• how to overcome leaky gut
