The Microbiome: Our Internal Pharmacy with Martha Carlin
by Kevin Danielson January 24, 2025
Dr. Brandon Crawford and microbiome researcher Martha Carlin explore the intricate connections between gut health, the environment, and overall wellness. They discuss how the food we consume influences our microbiome, the impact of glyphosate on nutrient absorption, and the role of the microbiome in brain health. Martha shares her personal journey into microbiome research, highlighting the importance of critical thinking in healthcare. The conversation also touches on the significance of viruses, the vagus nerve, and the influence of light on microbiome health.
With Valentine's Day approaching, I thought I'd share a delicious and gut-friendly recipe for probiotic chocolate truffles with non-GMO dextrose to share with others or enjoy for yourself. It's a great healthy option to try instead of the standard chocolate you'll find at the grocery store that's full of sugar or artificial sweeteners and other additives.
Martha recently joined Jason Grechanik for a conversation on The Universe Within Podcast. In this conversation they explore disease, the gut microbiome, the consequences of many Western lifestyle practices, holistic approaches to healing, the mind-body connection, and many other topics.
