In this <a href="https://www.hubermanlab.com/essentials">Huberman Lab Essentials</a> episode, my guest is <a href="https://sonnenburglab.stanford.edu/">Dr. Justin Sonnenburg, PhD</a>, a professor of microbiology and immunology at Stanford University.
We discuss how microbes in our gut impact our mental and physical health and how diet and the environment affect the <a href="https://www.hubermanlab.com/subtopics/gut-biome-and-digestive-health">gut microbiome</a>. We explain how lifestyle factors such as antibiotics and Western-style diets (high fat, low fiber and rich in processed foods) can damage gut diversity and whether prebiotics or probiotics are useful tools. Throughout the episode, we highlight evidence-based dietary and lifestyle strategies for improving gut health.
