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.
Every April, Earth Month invites us to pause and consider our relationship with the planet. We think about climate, pollution, sustainability—but how often do we think about microbes? These invisible allies, often overlooked, are the true stewards of life on Earth. They live beneath our feet, within our bodies, and in every breath we take. And they are crucial to both personal and planetary health.
We all try to make better choices: opting for whole foods, cutting back on sugar, and maybe even choosing organic. But hidden in even the most “healthy” foods are invisible disruptors that can silently wreak havoc on your gut health, metabolism, and immune function.
