Having a healthy gut is the strongest foundation for your health. But how do you know if your gut is healthy? Well, the good news is, you get a (hopefully daily) report card to tell you exactly how well the food you eat is creating the healthy body you want. Today’s episode is taken from one of my most popular live workshops called Gut in a Rut. There is A LOT of information in this episode and you’ll want to listen more than once. The workbook and all the slides are available when you go to the episode #3 extras at www.drkristinenewman.com/healthier. I suggest listening at least once with both in front of you.
