Summary

Lucy Mailing is a microbiome researcher, educator, and passionate scholar of integrative, evidence-based gut health. I have been following Lucy’s research for years, and I was excited to sit down with her to discuss how the microbiome impacts virtually every aspect of our health. We talk about factors that impact the gut lining, methods we can use to screen for intestinal permeability and gut dysbiosis, and actions we can take to support our microbiome.

0:00.0	10 years ago was largely talking about the basics, like the role of the gut microbiome in digestion
0:06.1	in protecting against infection, in synthesizing vitamins, and doing these various functions in the
0:12.0	gut. And since then, it's really expanded. I mean, those early years we were also seeing some
0:17.8	inklings of gut connections to other organs. For example, the gut brain access was one of the first
0:22.4	to emerge, or the connection between the gut microbiome and weight gain, and obesity,
0:28.6	metabolic syndrome. But in recent years, it's really honestly been connected to the health of

1:29.0	and her PhD in nutritional sciences from the University of Illinois. She's authored several peer
1:34.5	reviewed journal articles related to the microbiome and health and was named an emerging leader in
1:39.0	nutritional sciences by the American Society for Nutrition in 2017. On her website, LucyMailing.com,
