Hi friends,

If you heard last week’s episode on gut health, you know how much knowledge Dr. Will Bulsiewicz has to dish out! Author of Fiber Fueled and The Fiber Fueled Cookbook, Dr. Bulsiewicz is changing the way gut health is approached with a plant-based diet.

In this episode, we get into the details about why fiber is so important, and how to start eating enough to build optimal gut health.

We talk all about the microbiome and how you can start supporting it better. We talk about antibiotics and how they can throw off your gut health (and what you can do to recover), why you should add fermented foods and sprouts into your diet, and so much more!

This is another informative yet candid episode that will have you feeling empowered to improve your gut health.

Enjoy!

♡ Toni & Michelle
