Research shows gut microbes’ types, numbers, and activity change predictably over day and night, following your circadian cues like eating/fasting and sleep. New research is now showing us that disturbing these rhythms can be linked to disease, metabolic problems, inflammation, and weaker immune control.

Interpreting many hundreds of microbiome test results I notice some very common threads connecting test results and mood behaviours, notably Anxiety.

Today I want to share with you a very easy gut friendly recipe which will use a food as medicine approach to revitalise your gut health and improve detoxification.
