The Science of Gut Health | Dr. Robynne Chutkan

Why it matters for mental health; how to make improvements without succumbing to snake oil; and why you should be looking at your poop.

Dr. Robynne Chutkan is a board certified gastroenterologist and the author of the four books Gutbliss, The Microbiome Solution, The Bloat Cure, and The Anti-Viral Gut. She's also the host of The Gutbliss Podcast.

Paid subscribers of DanHarris.com will have exclusive access to a set of all-new guided meditations, led by friend of the show Cara Lai, customized to accompany each episode of the Get Fit Sanely series. We're super excited to offer a way to help you put the ideas from the episodes into practice. Learn all about it here.

  • The relationship between gut health and mental health
  • The microbiome, why it's important, and how you can view the microbiome through a Buddhist lens
  • A crash course on the digestive system
  • How to navigate the snake oil – and why some supplements you are taking could be making your gut worse
  • We go deep on acid reflux
  • The downsides of chewing gum
  • Distinguishing belly fat vs bloat
  • Why not all gas is bad
