Why Your Probiotic Supplement Isn't Working With Kiran Krishnan
Kiran Krishnan is a Microbiologist and has over 20 years experience in the probiotics industry. He is trained in Microbiology and Biochemistry and worked in several companies developing health products. He left academic research and opened his own clinical research organization and now focuses on carrying out clinical research on the various nutritional products produced by different companies.
Kiran's journey on probiotics started about 12 years ago when he was hired by a large company to research on the probiotics market. He found out that most probiotic products in the market had been created based on presumptions from decades ago on what the microbiome was like.
In this episode we will talk about the microbiome and Kirian will introduce us to the term holobiome. We will talk about good and bad bacteria in the gut, how the body gets out of microbiome balance, diet as well as supplements. We will discuss in detail about a probiotic product he developed in his lab and talk about its possible side effects for patients with certain disorders like candida/yeast infection.

How to Honor Your Baby's Microbiome
A Little Story about Healthy Babies...
When I was practicing acupuncture more, I saw a lot of ladies at the end of their pregnancy, who wanted support in preparing for labor. These ladies were brand new to me, and I'd always ask what supplements they were taking, and what foods they were eating.
I would often cringe to hear that they weren't consuming probiotics, and recommend that these moms-to-be consume probiotics foods and supplements. We know now that baby is exposed to bacteria from the birth canal/anus or the bacteria floating around in the surgery room, if C section delivery (link).
But also the bacterial environment of the mother affects baby's health in utero (link). Taking it a step further, your microbiome health will affect your ability to conceive and carry to term.
Even if you never plan to have kids, our microbiome supports so much of hormone regulation, it's important to every woman.
So what can you do to honor your microbiome, and your baby's microbiome?
You can consume kombucha, raw sauerkraut or kimchi, or coconut yogurt. You can eat a wide variety of vegetables to provide pre-biotic food to your microbiome. You can avoid foods that can irritate your gut such as processed grain, caffeine and sugar. You can take a high-quality, broad-spectrum probiotic. (Tip: the shelf stable ones are sometimes better than the dairy-based refridgerated ones.)
You can also attend this week's free Microbiome Summit, with over 30 free, expert interviews about our microbiome.
I don't attend every summit out there, but I'm very curious about this area that we are just starting to grasp. Very exciting stuff!
I want women to really get the importance of this area, and how we can nourish it, for our sake, and the sake of our healthy babies. Join the free Microbiome Summit here.
Hugs and Health, Bridgit
How Your Gut Health is Effecting Your Brain
In this interview with functional medicine expert Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo, we talk about the rarely acknowledged gut-brain connection. With modern research, we are gaining a deeper understanding of how digestion and the gut micro-biome effects the brain, and common symptoms of mood disorder, and poor concentration.
Holistic Dental Care with Cindy Haas
Cindy Haas was a Dental Hygienist for many years before also becoming a Certified Holistic Health Coach.
She published a book called Over the Lips and through the Gums to teach others about the mouth and how our choices effect our oral health. She also educates dental professionals who want to incorporate more holistic methods into their practices at Integrative Dental Concepts.
Cindy was nice enough to answer my myriad of questions about oral hygiene.
Guest Blog: Do Your Gut Bugs Influence Your Weight and Overall Health?
New research shows that your body does best when your gut microflora exhibits more bacteria AND a high degree of biodiversity or richness. A lack of gut bacteria and diversity is a cause for concern. This makes sense since the bacteria living in you produce vitamins, mature and strengthen the immune system, and communicate with your nerve and hormone-producing cells, among many other functions.
Are You Getting Enough VARIETY in Your Veggie Choices?
When you visit the produce section, do you tend to grab your usual stand-bys? Maybe a lettuce, a broccoli and a bag of carrots? How often do you venture out of the box, and try a fresh herb or vegetable you've never cooked with before?
In today's article, we'll explore why it's important to find variety in your veggie selection, and how to do it.
