Gut-Brain Expert: The Best Anti-Inflammatory Products For Your Gut

Gut-Brain Expert: The Best Anti-Inflammatory Products For Your Gut

Did you know there is a natural answer to Ozempic? In today’s episode, we’re joined by Dr Madusha Peiris and Dr Rubina Aktar, who are leading experts in the gut-brain connection, with over a decade of research focused on how the gut senses nutrients and communicates with the brain through hormone signalling. Their work has helped uncover how specialised gut cells (L-cells) can be activated to release key appetite-regulating hormones including GLP-1 and PYY - a lesser-known satiety hormone that many researchers believe is just as important as GLP-1 for sustainable appetite control. Listen in and learn: 🥦 the reason you shouldn’t be buying probiotic supplements 🔬 the truth behind “nature’s ozempic” 🤤 why you never feel full 🥣 what to buy to * actually * heal your gut 🍽️ how to moderate your appetite control Studies mentioned: Page, A.J., Symonds, E., Peiris, M., Blackshaw, L.A. and Young, R.L.
