Summary

In the last episode in the series, Tim and Giles find out how they can both physically change how they eat in order to improve their gut health and overall wellbeing. Giles meets British food writer and historian Bee Wilson, the author of First Bite: How We Learn To Eat. How can repeated exposure to certain foods change our tastes?

We also hear from BJ Fogg who runs the behavioural change lab at Stanford University on how to establish new eating habits. How has Tim transformed his gut over the course of the series?

Refreshing and very interesting

I loved the whole series. It was so refreshing not having to listen to an author who is so blinded by his or her beliefs about nutrition or trying to sell you the latest fad. The lads arm you with some facts and let you make up your mind based on the latest science.

Over the years i have listened to audiobooks making the arguments from all sides. Meat is bad, cut out dairy, avoid grains, juice, don’t juice... haha, i’d be as well sewing up my mouth and be done with it. What I have gained though is knowledge from all these camps and somehow managed to keep an open mind that they are all right to some degree, just blinded by their passion and tunnel vision... and in a few cases greed.

My passion and reason for listening to all these books is that I am completely amazed by the human body. My knowledge of how it ‘really’ works grows with every book I read or listen too. I’ve been healthy all my life, never spent a day in a hospital but last year was diagnosed with Psoriasis which has progressed to being severe. It covers my entire body and apart from being so time consuming to manage, has many health and psychological impacts. This has led me to studying the gut and the microbiome. My life from here on is looking forward to treating the symptoms of Psoriasis without ever tackling the source. With all this knowledge i’ve gained (haha, i’m no expert of course) i’m convinced it lies in the gut and that’s where i’ll continue to focus.

So as the title suggests, if you want to learn about gut health, this is the perfect place to start. Lots of ideas and knowledge condensed into short bursts and delivered in a friendly and entertaining manner.

Well done boys, hope you continue the series.

This is Great

I wasn't that informed about the power of the gut. This podcast has created a wealth of ways to make the change and live well from my gut.

can't put the headphones down!!

incredible journey around the gut! :) I just couldn't put the headphones down!
learnt a lot about the gut and it's connection with our brain and therefore our behaviour and feelings. will definitely make some changes in my food habits and pay much more attention to my gut and cherish it :)
