I was honored to recently be a guest on the Life's Best
In this conversation, we discuss the microbiome triggers for diseases, the multitude of factors that affect the gut microbiome, learning to feed good bacteria and starve bad bacteria with diet and lifestyle changes, mannitol and its effect on the gut, toxoplasmosis, where to go for a good gut microbiome test, why supermarket probiotic foods may not be ideal for building up your gut microbiome, and tips for making your own bone broth and yogurt.
As I share with Dr. Lenzkes, I believe "life's best medicine" is helping people. I used to have a career that was all about making money and moving up the ladder. When I started doing the work I do with BiotiQuest and seeing how much I can help people—even the little interactions on the phone; that human connection and really being able to make a difference in somebody’s life—that is what motivates me to get up in the morning. I am so much happier doing this and working to help people live healthier, happier lives.
Thanks to Dr. Lenzkes for having me on his insightful, informative show! You can listen to the interview below orwatch the video on YouTube:
As the days grow longer and the first signs of spring emerge, our bodies begin to shift—just like the world around us. More daylight encourages movement, fresh seasonal foods become available, and our microbiome, the intricate ecosystem of bacteria within us, responds in kind. Just as nature awakens after winter’s rest, so too does your gut, adapting to new rhythms, foods, and environmental cues.
Just as we engage in spring cleaning for our external environment, a little internal refresh can go a long way in supporting digestive health, boosting energy, and reinforcing overall well-being.
In this episode of The One Thing Podcast, Dr. Adam Rinde dives deep into the fascinating world of the microbiome with Martha Carlin, a citizen scientist, entrepreneur, and microbiome expert.
