Although we’re increasingly understanding more about the role of our gut health, it’s a pretty complex area and still very much in its infancy. Enter DJs Alana and Lisa Macfarlane (AKA the Mac Twins), founders of The Gut Stuff, who have a unique and funny approach to gut health, making it understandable and accessible to all. In this episode, they share with Gemma how they went from party-loving DJs to wellness gurus and why everyone should know about their own pooing habits. Along with one of our resident experts on the podcast, Holland & Barrett nutritionist Isabel Tarrant, they talk us through fibre, poo and why 30 is the magic number.
