Sound Health Radio - Martha Carlin's quest to research The general ledger of our Health and Longevity
by Kevin Danielson April 06, 2025
Martha Carlin's remarkable journey from concerned spouse to microbiome specialist, exploring the vital connection between soil health and our gut ecosystem. She'll talk about how environmental toxins in everyday products disrupt our gut bacteria and effect brain health, and examine the complex relationship between our environment and chronic diseases. Martha will also discuss exciting emerging trends in microbiome research that could revolutionize how we approach health and healing.
Behind closed eyes, the brain is carrying out a carefully coordinated night shift. And research into the microbiome raises an intriguing question: how might the activity in our gut influence the sleep that gives this work its opportunity?
When discussing gut health, the conversation usually centers on the microbiome. While balancing gut bacteria remains essential, cutting-edge science highlights another critical component of cellular health: the glycocalyx.
When discussing chronic neurological conditions like Parkinson’s disease, conventional medicine frequently focuses on a single narrative: dopamine depletion. While managing neurotransmitters remains a core part of traditional care, emerging physical chemistry and microbiome research reveal a far broader picture.
