Tune in as Martha emphasizes that while indigenous populations show greater microbial diversity, much is still unknown about the effects of various diets, like the ketogenic diet, on the microbiome. Martha acknowledges that meat contains unique fibers like hyaluronic acid that support connective tissue health. While fiber is often considered beneficial, its role can be overrated if the gut microbiome is compromised. Martha explains her reservations about plant-based fibers due to chemical contamination and stresses the importance of a healthy microbiome for overall health.
Did you know that a simple jar of fermented cabbage can contain more probiotics than a bottle of store-bought supplements? Fermentation isn’t just an ancient tradition—it’s a science-backed way to boost your gut health.

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.
