This episode of the Rooted in Health Podcast by Brian Christensen features Functional Nutritionist Andrea Nicholson, discussing various health topics including optimizing gut health. 

During the winter months, it is crucial to prioritize gut health due to the challenges posed by cold temperatures, reduced activity, and less sunshine. Gut health is closely linked to overall well-being, and our gut microbes play a vital role in breaking down nutrients, synthesizing vitamins, and protecting us from illnesses. To take care of your gut during this season, it is important to follow a healthy diet, filled with fresh, organic whole foods and fermented/cultured foods, while minimizing refined sugars, grains, alcohol, and chemicals. Managing stress and getting regular exercise are also essential for supporting gut health. By implementing these strategies, you can ensure that your gut microbes stay healthy and that your digestive system functions properly throughout the winter months.
