I could talk about gut health until the cows come home, so speaking to Rebecca was an absolute pleasure this morning. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the gut microbiome and agrees about the importance of the first thousand days. If you're looking for a probiotic for anyone in the family, this podcast is for you.

We discuss everything surrounding the topic of gut health, from when to start taking a probiotic and how often, to the development of an infant's gut and allergies, including whether allergies can be grown out of. We touch on eczema, colic and reflux and round off with the importance of moderation when it comes to nutrition and processed food. My takeaway buzzwords from this podcast episode are 'diversity' and 'variety'.

It's good for Teens to have protein before bed. Easy forms are:

• Cheese
• Turkey
• Low sugar yoghurt
• Nuts

Good things to look out for teens:

• A good multi-vitamin
• Probiotics
• Fish oils (great for hormone balance)
• And think about zinc for boys

Kombucha can be a good alternative to lemonade and great for their gut health

Breakfast – eggs and yoghurt are a good option, or a nice nut milk with porridge. A protein shake is better than nothing

Mid-afternoon snacks are important – remember the importance of protein again as this helps with mood swings and keeping blood sugar levels constant
