In this episode, I’m speaking with Dr. Jason Hawrelak, world-renowned microbiome expert, gastrointestinal specialist, and author of over 60 research papers dedicated to gut health. He is, in my opinion, one of the foremost gut/microbiome experts on the planet. So this is a MUST-listen.

In this podcast, Dr. Hawrelak and I discuss:

• The invisible but highly active “organ” that affects everything from mitochondrial function to our nervous system to cancer treatment outcomes

• The truth behind microbiome testing and what to know before you get your results

• 3 primary connections between your microbiome and mitochondria 

• The mitochondrial poison some people produce in their own GI tract connected to Alzheimer’s, blood sugar dysregulation, and neurotransmitter imbalance 2 GI and mitochondrial-damaging substances that most Americans consume every day

• The crucial short-chain fatty acid created by your microbiome that feeds your colon…and your mitochondria
