About Dr Shawn Talbott:
Dr. Shawn Talbott is fascinated by the links between diet, biochemistry and psychology: the idea that what we eat changes the biochemistry of our bodies, and influences how we think, feel and behave. The “gut-brain axis” is what Doc Talbott refers to as, “The missing piece of the puzzle,” for optimizing mood, energy, focus and overall wellbeing. “Understanding the connection between our microbiome and our brain is fundamentally changing how we think about human performance, both physically and mentally.”
Doc Talbott holds a MS in Exercise Science from University of Massachusetts and a PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry from Rutgers. He also holds advanced certificates in Entrepreneurship and Innovation from MIT. He is a Fellow of both the American College of Sports Medicine and the American College of Nutrition. As a Diplomate of the International Olympic Committee’s Sports Nutrition program, he has educated elite-level athletes in a variety of sports including at the United States Olympic Training Centers.
