Balancing the gut microbiome can transform the entire terrain of the body by regulating the immune system, controlling inflammation, influencing metabolism, and affecting brain function via the gut-brain axis, all of which are crucial in the prevention and potential reversal of chronic illnesses.
Martha Carlin is a pioneering citizen scientist and systems researcher who has spent the past decade unraveling the hidden connections between the microbiome, chronic disease, and environmental toxins. After her husband was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, Martha left a successful corporate career to investigate the deeper causes of neurodegeneration and metabolic dysfunction—starting in the gut.

If you want a clearer understanding of gut health and how to experience the profound benefits of targeted probiotics — clearer skin, fewer cravings, better digestion, deeper sleep, and more — this episode is for you.
Returning to seasonal eating isn’t just nostalgic. It’s a powerful way to support your gut microbiome—the vast ecological community inside you that helps shape digestion, immune resilience, mood balance, and overall vitality.
