Hello Friends! Today begins my 3 episode series: All About Gut Health! 

Some of you may know that I am a Ph.D. student who has a love for conducting research on the gut-brain connection. Gut health is so important, and I will be posting a 3 part series sharing gut health stories from two inspiring athletes, Sonia P, and Ali Feller. Then, for my final episode, I will talk all about the research on the gut-brain axis, share my personal gut health story, and answer YOUR gut health questions! 

Today, I have a wonderful guest, Sonia. Sonia is a Division 1 runner who has an inspiring story of how she dealt with gut health issues due to underfueling, overcame underfueling, and healed her gut. We talk in-depth about how intentional or unintentional underfueling or "clean eating" can impact one's gut microbiome and lead to GI distress that impacts many areas of one's life. Sonia gives many words of wisdom and gives great advice on how healing your relationship with food can heal your gut. If you have ever dealt with gut issues or underfueling, or are interested in gut health, this episode is for you! You can connect with Sonia and see her wonderful content on her Instagram, linked below!
