We're re-airing this episode because not only is it one of our most popular episodes, it's also the one we've most often shared with family and friends. We believe it's a must-listen for anyone with kids - but Dr. Nicole Beurkens also does a phenomenal job of easily laying out how the gut-brain connection works for everyone, adults included.
Andrea speaks with Dr. Beurkens about how the majority of patients she sees are dealing with gut issues - even if they're not exhibiting gut-related symptoms. She seamlessly breaks down how the gut and brain are intricately connected, whether a single-time head trauma (such a concussion during a sporting event) can trigger gut problems and how parents can take control of their child's gut health and create a happier, more harmonious family environment.

Viruses. Does the word just make you want to lunge for a cleaning product and pull your mask a little tighter? On this mini-episode, Andrea (@dreeats) talks to Dr. Keesha (@drkeesha) about why that reaction isn't the right one to take when we're talking about viruses.
Viruses make up a huge part of our internal and external world, and only a very small number (seriously, like 1%) make us sick. Dr. Keesha breaks down the basics around the virome of our bodies, including what it is, why it's critical to our survival and how we can live in better harmony with all of our microbes - even our viruses.
