S11 E26: Why Gut Health Is a Key to Better Health With Jim LaValle, RPh, CCN (Performance & Longevity Series)

Gut health refers to the well-being of your digestive system, including your gut microbiome — a vast ecosystem of microorganisms that play an essential role in nutrient absorption, immune health, brain function, and more. By understanding how the gut works and what makes it vulnerable, you can use lifestyle approaches to support better health.

In this episode, Jim LaValle, RPh, CCN, explains how the gut is involved in almost every aspect of health and what can happen when it's not functioning properly. He also shares signs that your gut health may be compromised along with strategies for support.

This episode of Life Time Talks is part of our series on Performance and Longevity with MIORA.
